"Or... let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things for your mother and younger brother?" Su Ziyu quickly diverted his attention.
I was afraid that if I let her get to the bottom of this matter any further, it would only lead her further away.
"No need to buy any more. They'll be leaving in a few days. It would be hard to clean up if there were too many things. Then we'd have to... throw them away, which would just cause more trouble." Shen Zhihuan laughed.
Hearing Shen Zhihuan's words, Su Ziyu's heart sank.
Su Ziyu really wanted to tell her that she still had him.
It was just that the timing was wrong. She was already very resistant and repulsive to having further contact with people, or to be more precise, with men. If he took any risks, the good impression she had just built up on him might just vanish.
Building goodwill is like building a house, you have to build it brick by brick, and it can collapse in an instant.
Su Ziyu can't afford to gamble.
On the way back, Shen Zhihuan was in a bad mood, and Su Ziyu didn't dare to say anything more, for fear of accidentally stepping on some unpleasant spot.
There were many potholes on the road. Su Ziyu tried to slow down as much as possible and carefully avoid them.
When I returned to the village, I saw a large group of people coming out of the brigade headquarters after a meeting.
Su Ziyu was worried that Shen Zhihuan would feel uncomfortable, so he quickly sped up.
Even so, it was still seen by people dozens of meters away.
Nowadays, bicycles are eye-catching, and with Su Ziyu dressed in olive green, it’s hard not to attract more attention.
"Secretary Su, is that your Zi Yu? Didn't you say he passed away a few days ago?" Accountant Xu pointed at the bicycle speeding past.
Su Changjiang was thinking about something with his head down. When he heard what Xu Youcai said, he looked up in the direction of his finger. When his eyes fell on the back seat of the bicycle, he couldn't help but frown.
"Look at that figure, he looks like the second son of Secretary Su's family."
"What are you looking at? Who else could that be but Zi Yu? It also looks like, uh... why is there a woman sitting in the back seat?!"
"If women don't sit in the back seat of a man's car, will men sit in it?" a middle-aged man started to make trouble.
"Do you think the woman in the back seat looks like the third daughter of the Shen family?"
"What do you mean by similar? It's exactly the same. When I went out to dig the ground this morning, I saw the third daughter of the Shen family wearing that dress."
"I've never seen Ziyu give a woman a ride."
"Is there going to be anything wrong with them?!"
…
A group of aunts and uncles were talking and laughing, it was very lively.
Wang Tiezhu, who had been silent the whole time, saw Su Changjiang frowning, looking unhappy, and quickly said, "We are from the same village, what's wrong with hitchhiking?!"
"Yes! We are from the same village, we know each other every day, so what's wrong with hitchhiking?" Xu Youcai seemed to have noticed something was wrong and quickly agreed.
"Captain Wang and Accountant Xu are right. They just want to take a ride. Look at what you bunch of chattering old women are saying. All you do is talk nonsense all day long." A short man with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks also stood up.
"Hou Xiaosan, if you want to hitchhike, let your daughter go and try. See if Secretary Su's second son can get a ride." Fu Guihua snorted and laughed.
Su Changjiang's expression changed suddenly.
He still knows a little about his own race.
I have always been used to doing things my own way, and I am not the kind of person who would show kindness to everyone I meet.
He frowned, put his hands behind his back, turned around and walked back.
Fu Guihua and the woman standing next to her smiled at each other with their lips curled.
The woman that my cousin doesn't want is now with my cousin.
This is going to be a good show.
When Wang Tiezhu saw everyone's reactions, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
When the time comes, Su Ziyu will put all the blame on him.
Now that everyone knows, he doesn't have to worry about it anymore and can't even sleep well. Shen Xiaoqing stood at the door of the main hall of the Shen family, with an expression that looked like she was watching a good show.
When Shen Zhihuan and Su Ziyu returned to the Shen family, the whole family was sitting in the main room waiting.
It looked like a three-court trial.
Old Master Shen sat in the middle, his eyes calm and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.
Shen Jianguo sat at the left hand side of Mr. Shen with a sullen face, and it was obvious that he was still angry.
Li Qiuhua frowned and sat on the right side of Mr. Shen with a worried look on her face. She was obviously relieved to see Shen Zhihuan coming back.
"What on earth are you thinking?" Shen Jianguo slammed the table.
Marriage is such a big thing, but she actually got the marriage certificate without even informing anyone, let alone discussing it.
How audacious!
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
"You didn't hurt your brain when the landslide happened?"
Shen Zhihuan's words almost made Shen Jianguo collapse.
After saying that, she slapped her forehead as if she had suddenly realized something, "Sorry, I forgot, you really hurt your brain."
"Shen Zhihuan..." Shen Jianguo was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.
He didn't know what sins he had committed in his previous life that he had raised such a disobedient and unfilial child in this life.
"Didn't I tell you last time? I want to find someone handsome and sweet while I'm still young, and quickly have a few kids to play with." Shen Zhihuan looked innocent.
"You are only seventeen years old." Shen Jianguo gritted his teeth.
He suspected that sooner or later he would be angered to death by this disobedient and unfilial person.
"Didn't I just say it? I want to have a baby while I'm still young. Do I have to wait until I'm old to have one? I'm afraid that by that time, I won't be able to have one even if I want to. So, it's better to have a baby as early as possible." Shen Zhihuan looked lazy and casual.
Shen Jianguo's face turned pale, "You..."
"Are you okay? If you're okay, I'll go in and take a rest. I'm so tired after a whole day of work." Shen Zhihuan said as he raised his hand and tapped his sore shoulder.
My health wasn't good to begin with, and I held the handrail for so long...
Oh my god! But in Shen Jianguo's eyes, this was a naked provocation.
He held back and asked, "What are your plans for the future?"
Before Shen Zhihuan could speak, he added, "Don't talk to me about having children again."
"Of course, if you marry a chicken, you follow the chicken; if you marry a dog, you follow the dog; if you marry a carrying pole, you carry it everywhere. Since Ziyu is away from home all year round, I naturally have to help him take care of his parents at home." Shen Zhihuan said, and turned his head and smiled at Su Ziyu beside him.
Even though he knew she was doing it on purpose for the people in the room to see, Su Ziyu's heart still skipped a beat.
Shen Jianguo raised his hand and rubbed his brows which were swollen due to Shen Zhihuan's anger. He looked at Su Ziyu and said with undisguised anger in his voice, "Do you think so too?"
"In our family, she is the head of the household." Su Ziyu's voice has always been clear.
This time, even Mr. Shen, who was sitting in the middle seat, drinking a cup of tea from beginning to end and not saying a word, couldn't help but look up at Su Ziyu.
Su Ziyu avoided everyone's gaze with a dull expression and glanced sideways at the smiling person beside him.
Shen Jianguo: “…”
Mr. Shen: “.”
Li Qiuhua: “.”
