Zhangjia Village.
Zhou Yubai and Gu Qichuan went there by bicycle. Zhou Yubai had one at home, and the other one was borrowed from the brigade headquarters.
When they went back, they put the coarse grains in the back of Gu Qichuan's car and the fine grains in the front of Zhou Yubai's car, and they could all be taken back.
When they entered the village, they unexpectedly attracted a lot of attention.
"Who is that girl? Why is she so pretty?"
"Oh my god, I've never seen a woman so beautiful."
"Let's go over there and ask her if she's talking about me."
A group of people followed Zhou Yubai and his friends to Zhang Daqing's house.
When Zhang Erqing got home last night, he told his mother about the food compensation. His mother was so angry that she wanted to beat him with a stick.
Zhang Erqing didn't care what Zhang's mother thought. He just said, "If you want me to support you in your old age, you have to let me live a stable life now. If I get beaten because of my eldest brother, then I will split up the family and live alone with my wife."
Zhang Daqing was nowhere to be found, so Zhang's mother naturally didn't dare to confront her only son, and finally she could only agree reluctantly.
Zhang Erqing prepared all the coarse and fine grains last night.
In fact, the Zhang family is not poor at all.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have offered such a high bride price for Zhang Daqing to marry. However, Zhang's mother was mean, selfish, and vicious, so Zhou Mingyue never had a good day in the Zhang family.
When Zhang Erqing woke up in the morning, he was afraid that his mother had done something wrong, so he checked the food again and waited for Zhou Yubai and the others in the yard.
He was really frightened yesterday.
Now I don't have any little thoughts at all. After all, no one else's affairs are as important as mine.
This is the selfishness that runs in their family.
Zhou Yubai parked the car at the door, Shen Qingli jumped out of the car, looked back at Gu Qichuan, and the three of them walked in together.
"Comrade Zhou, Comrade Gu, you are here. I am ready." Zhang Erqing said hurriedly, his eyes inadvertently falling on Shen Qingli's face, and a bright light burst out in his eyes in an instant.
It’s so, so beautiful.
When Zhang's mother saw Shen Qingli, she immediately had an idea.
"Girl, our family is rich. If you are willing to marry us, we will give you ten yuan as a betrothal gift." Mother Zhang stared at Shen Qingli with her cloudy eyes.
The villagers who were watching the excitement couldn't help but curse.
"This old lady is too shameless."
"They just drag the girls to their homes because they think they are pretty. Zhou Mingyue was so pretty back then, but now she is too old to be looked at."
"It's just a dream."
"The Zhang family is really rich. After losing so much food, they still came up with ten dollars."
The villagers were talking about it.
Shen Qingli looked at Zhang's mother with cold eyes and said calmly, "I am Zhou Yubai's wife."
Zhou Yubai looked at Zhang's mother with cold eyes. Zhang's mother's voice was stuck in her throat. She was unwilling to accept that so much of her food was taken away by others, and she also lost her daughter-in-law.
Originally, the Zhou family should have compensated her with another daughter-in-law, and she didn't mind that Shen Qingli had been married before.
"Where is my second sister's room?" Zhou Yubai asked coldly.
At this time, all the yellow waste in Zhang Erqing's mind had been cleared up. He immediately pointed to Zhou Mingyue and their room with a smile.
"I'll go pack up my second sister's things." Shen Qingli said to Zhou Yubai in a gentle voice, then turned to look at Zhang's mother, "Come and take a look. Otherwise, if anything is missing from your house after we leave, we won't be responsible."
"Hmph." Zhang's mother snorted coldly and followed Shen Qingli into the room.
As soon as Shen Qingli entered the room, she smelled the rotten and moldy smell in the air, and her brows wrinkled slightly.
"These tattered clothes belong to Zhou Mingyue, and those pieces of broken copper and iron." Zhang's mother pointed with disdain.
Shen Qingli looked over and paused for a moment. The scraps of copper and iron were not scraps of copper and iron. They were...
She said nothing, packed up her things quickly, looked around, made sure there was nothing of Zhou Mingyue's, then turned around and left.
Outside, Gu Qichuan and Zhou Yubai had already packed the food.
"Yubai, Brother Qichuan, let's go, we've got everything."
"Okay." Zhou Yubai and Gu Qichuan responded.
Before Zhou Yubai left, he said to Zhang Erqing in a cold voice, "From this moment on, our two families officially have no relationship. If you come to my second sister with any excuse, you will bear the consequences."
After saying that, Zhou Yubai held the bike and let Shen Qingli sit on it, then he pushed off and rode away.
Gu Qichuan also left with them. He turned back and glanced at Zhang Erqing with a half-smile.
Zhang Erqing just felt that he had been hit twice. Zhou Yubai's eyes were so cold that it seemed as if he could tear him to pieces at any time, and Gu Qichuan's eyes looked harmless but actually contained murderous intent.
That's scary.
Zhang Erqing swore that even if he met Zhou Mingyue on the road in the future, he would take a detour.
Zhang's mother made sure they were far away before she started to curse, "What a bullshit! Finding such a beautiful woman, sooner or later she will have to raise a child for someone else."
"Mom, shut up right now." Zhang Erqing scolded hurriedly.
Zhang's mother's expression froze, and she pursed her lips in anger, but in the end she dared not say another word.
"Zhang Erqing, your brother has been missing for so long, could something have happened to him?"
"What can happen? You don't know what kind of person my brother is. We don't know what he wants to do, but we won't care about his affairs anymore." After Zhang Erqing said this, he forcefully helped Zhang's mother back to the room.
Zhou Sicheng, who was looking around not far away, heard Zhang Erqing's words and finally felt relieved. If the Zhang family did not pursue the matter, no one would look for Zhang Daqing.
Now that neither the living nor the dead are seen, no one would think that Zhang Daqing is dead.
Zhou Sicheng lowered his head, turned around and disappeared quietly.
Kaoshantun, small courtyard.
As soon as Shen Qingli entered the room, she spoke mysteriously, "Second sister has a treasure in her hand."
"What treasure?" Gu Qichuan asked curiously. He knew Shen Qingli's abilities and was well-versed in history and current affairs. If she said it was a treasure, then it must be a treasure.
"Yu Bai, sister-in-law, Comrade Gu, you are back. Thank you for your hard work." Zhou Mingyue walked out of the house.
Shen Qingli smiled and said, "Second sister, we were just talking about you having a baby."
"What treasures do I have? I only have a few rags of clothes from the Zhang family."
"We'll throw away the clothes soon and wear new ones. These are what I'm talking about." Shen Qingli took out the broken copper and iron.
"What are these treasures? I picked them up from the mountains over there. They look pretty and I'm thinking of using them to make bowls or something." Zhou Mingyue said. She was not even worthy of using bowls when she was at Zhang's house...
She looked at Shen Qingli in confusion.
"Second sister, these are antiques. At least they are from the Shang Dynasty. In a few years, these things can become heirlooms." Shen Qingli smiled mysteriously.
"Bronze ware." Gu Qichuan raised his eyes.
Shen Qingli nodded. With these things, she wouldn't have to worry about her second sister's future life!
Zhou Mingyue was slightly startled, then she spoke...
