Chapter 310 The Grand Show
Wei Zhao has nothing left but his three children, and has nothing to offer as a bet with Song Lubai.
Standing in the alleyway between the house and the courtyard, Wei Zhao saw Tang Xuewen standing there exchanging a few words with Miao Feng.
Miao Feng's behavior was somewhat intriguing.
Wei Zhao felt there was a good chance the two of them could reconcile.
The two chicks in the pen were chirping, and the neighbors who heard it came over to take a look.
Upon seeing that both chicks are roosters, many people's first reaction is that raising roosters is useless and a pure waste of food.
Song Lubai didn't mention that the two chickens were for improving their meals, since no one would waste food and energy raising roosters like hers.
"There are no hens in the chicken farms in the city. If we raise hens now, they won't be able to lay eggs when it gets cold."
Aunt Lu nodded and said, "Feeding them only wheat bran won't work. Have Shaohua and the others go to the fields every day to shovel some grass, chop it up, and mix it with the wheat bran. The chickens will grow faster if they eat that."
There are many wild grasses growing in the fields. During the lean months, every household will go to the fields to dig up a lot of edible things, cook them, and then make cold dishes. Although the taste is not very good, many wild vegetables can reduce internal heat and fill the stomach.
The meal was almost ready when Wei Yang returned carrying fried dough sticks and soy milk.
After finishing his meal, Wei Yang said to Wei Zhao and Chen Yu, "Which do you two want to go, the nursery or the armed forces canteen? Staying at home every day isn't a good idea."
Song Lubai thought both places were good places to visit, but she didn't expect Wei Yang to bring them up suddenly.
When will schools reopen?
Wei Yang felt that even if schools resumed classes, teachers' status wouldn't be high, and it would be too easy for things to go wrong. He thought it would be better to work elsewhere first.
Wei Yang expressed his concerns, and Chen Yu offered, "I'll go to the cafeteria."
At this moment, Wei Zhao was planning to go to the cafeteria to improve his cooking skills when he unexpectedly learned that Chen Yu also planned to go to the cafeteria.
Wei Zhao nodded and said, "That works too. I can take Dongyang with me to the nursery every day."
The family dispersed after lunch. Song Lubai returned early at noon and had just put the rice in the pot when she heard a noise nearby.
Aunt Lu waved to Song Lubai from outside the courtyard, "Come out quickly, come out quickly."
Aunt Lu's eyes clearly told Song Lubai that there was something interesting to watch outside.
Song Lubai left the hospital with an apple in her hand.
Over there, Tang Xuewen knelt down before Miao Feng in front of everyone.
With a few drops of cat urine still on his face, Tang Xuewen said with a pained expression, "Feng'er, I really can't live without you. We've been together for almost two years. I was wrong in the past. I shouldn't have hit you. I'm also heartbroken that the child is gone. As long as you're willing to come back, I'm willing to treat you even better from now on, and I promise I'll never hit you again."
Song Lubai went inside, brought out a small stool, sat down, and ate while watching the commotion.
Zhao Hongying, who was watching the commotion from the front, said, "Miao Feng, if you dare to turn around, you'll be disgracing us women. Let him be arrogant, but you'll soften your heart after a couple of drops of cat pee? Don't forget how many beatings you've suffered in the past."
Someone chimed in, "That's right, Miao Feng, if you turn back, he'll only be beating you from now on!"
Aunt Lu frowned and whispered to Song Lubai, "What is Zhao Hongying doing? Tang Xuewen has already knelt down, he must be genuinely repentant. It's no big deal for Miao Feng to give him another chance. A husband and wife are always the best. If you get divorced and find someone else, they might not be as good as the first one."
Song Lubai's gaze lingered on Aunt Lu's face for a little too long.
Aunt Lu asked, puzzled, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Song Lubai said, "You think Miao Feng can forgive him just because he knelt down once? Was all the beatings she suffered before only worth that one kneel from Tang Xuewen? What if he beats her again in the future?"
The cost for men to hit women is too low. They've already lost their babies, and if kneeling down is enough to get them forgiven, then the women who get beaten deserve to suffer any more afterward.
Aunt Lu was still speaking up for Tang Xuewen: "They've fought quite a few times. Tang Xuewen has never knelt down before. I think he's genuinely repented this time, and he definitely won't dare to do it again."
Song Lubai was annoyed by what she heard. She thought to herself: Comrade Zhao Hongying is the one who has the awareness!
Tang Xuewen went to such lengths to kneel down today because he was afraid that Miao Feng would really leave him and he wouldn't be able to find a wife in the future. That's why he chose this method to win Miao Feng back.
Even Aunt Lu, who doesn't associate with Tang Xuewen's family, thinks this way, which shows that Tang Xuewen has made the right choice in some respects.
There was a lively scene at Tang Xuewen's house. Song Lubai walked over to Zhao Hongying's place, ate an apple, and stood there watching the commotion.
Aunt Lu watched Song Lubai's retreating figure with a slight smirk, thinking that young people were too serious and didn't know how to manage a household. If a man showed remorse and a woman forgave him, a reconciliation would be a happy event.
Miao Feng didn't say much, but Zhao Hongying was even more excited than Miao Feng.
"So what if you kneel down? Aren't you just afraid you'll never find a wife again? Miao Feng, if you ever turn back, I'll look down on you for the rest of my life."
Miao Feng said with a stiff face, "I never said I would go back to living with him."
Tang Xuewen turned around and glared at Zhao Hongying, "Zhao Hongying, what's it to you? You'd love for us to get a divorce, wouldn't you? You just can't stand to see us doing well, you vicious woman."
With a powerful voice, Zhao Hongying retorted with her hands on her hips: "It's not that I can't stand to see you doing well, it's that I can't stand to see you doing well! The person who beat their own child to death is the vicious one."
“Miao Feng, you need to think this through. If you divorce him, you can find someone else later. Look at Tang Xuewen’s character. Do you trust his promises? It’s so much better to find someone else. There are plenty of single men out there. You’re still young. Why are you so reckless and looking back?”
Miao Feng's eyes flickered, clearly indicating that she was interested.
She was afraid that her reputation would suffer after the divorce and that she wouldn't be able to find a good man. She was also afraid that if she went back to her ex-husband, everyone would laugh at her.
But Zhao Hongying is right, she's still young.
Tang Xuewen hugged Miao Feng's leg and said, "Don't listen to Zhao Hongying's nonsense. If you're willing to continue living with me, I'll definitely treat you well from now on. In our family, you're the boss, and I'll listen to everything you say from now on."
Before Tang Xuewen had even finished urinating, a man spoke up to him: "Miao Feng, that's enough. Tang Xuewen has realized his mistake. Every family has its ups and downs. Isn't it just about mutual tolerance between husband and wife? If everyone is so petty, no one can live a normal life."
"That's right, that's enough. Old Tang was just a little petty and had a bad temper in the past, but at least he cared about his family and treated you well."
…
Yesterday, everyone supported Miao Feng and Tang Xuewen's divorce, but today, after Tang Xuewen knelt down, many people turned around and spoke up for him.
Seeing Zhao Hongying's face turn red with anger, Song Lubai patted her shoulder and said calmly, "Why are you so angry? Even if she wants to turn back, you're not the one who might get beaten up again. Don't worry about her. She might even think you're laughing at her. It's not worth getting yourself upset."
If she were Miao Feng, she definitely wouldn't have stayed in this area after Guo Yanhong announced her divorce yesterday.
Miao Feng's reaction was quite interesting; she seemed to be a little hesitant.
