Jiang Shiyue noticed that Da Liu was not heading back to the compound.
"Oh!" Da Liu held the handlebars with one hand and wiped the sweat from his forehead with the other. "Chen Ying asked me to take you to the city. Don't come back to the compound unless you have nothing to do these few days."
Jiang Shiyue: “…”
"Why?"
Liu was silent.
Jiang Shiyue waited for a while but didn't get any answer, so he pretended to jump off the bicycle.
She didn't have to live in the compound, but she had to leave with a clear mind, especially since she hadn't packed her personal belongings yet.
Da Liu was anxious. He had to control the bicycle which was shaking because of Jiang Shiyue's restlessness while trying to persuade Jiang Shiyue, "Sister-in-law, don't jump! Hey... Oh! Chen Ying is doing this for your own good."
Jiang Shiyue had already jumped out of the car.
When Jiang Shiyue first came through, she didn't dare to jump. Later, she found that people could get on and off the back seat of bicycles without stopping the bicycles. They could jump on and off.
After watching it many times, she gradually learned it.
The prerequisite is that the cyclist has good enough skills and rides slowly enough, otherwise he will fall.
She dared to jump because Liu Da was a good driver.
Seeing that Jiang Shiyue had already jumped, Da Liu had to stop and explained the reason, "Your mother-in-law and sister-in-law are here."
Jiang Shiyue was stunned. "Who did you say is here?"
"Your mother-in-law... is Chen Ying's mother and her sister-in-law." Big Liu thought that Jiang Shiyue didn't want to have anything to do with Chen Shanhe's family, so he changed his words.
Jiang Shiyue frowned. The original owner had no memory of interacting with Chen Shanhe's family.
The two of them got married after Chen Shanhe submitted a report and they got the marriage certificate after it was approved.
Her personal file was on the farm, and Chen Shanhe's household registration was in the army, so the marriage did not go through the approval of the two families, and they just had a table of wine in the army.
In the past three years, Chen Shanhe only returned home once during her vacation, and that was before she gave birth to Yangyang.
Jiang Shiyue only knew that Chen Shanhe's parents were not in good health, that he had two older brothers and an older sister, and that he was the youngest in the family.
Why would the Chen family just come here out of the blue?
Seeing Jiang Shiyue's unhappy expression, Da Liu hurriedly explained, "Mrs. Chen Ying has a bad temper. Chen Ying was afraid that you two would clash, so she thought you still had some unfinished business at the garment factory, so she asked you to go ahead and do your business."
Jiang Shiyue turned around and walked towards the compound without saying a word.
Da Liu quickly turned around and rode his bicycle to catch up, "Sister-in-law! Sister-in-law! Don't go back!"
"Sister-in-law, you won't be able to live here if you go back, right?"
"It's better for everyone to avoid it for a while, right?"
“…”
Seeing that Jiang Shiyue refused to listen no matter what he said, Big Liu became anxious. He crossed his bicycle to block Jiang Shiyue and told her the truth: "Sister-in-law, you can't go back! Chen Ying's family has never known about his marriage. I don't know where they heard about you, so they came all the way from their hometown. They are probably already at the family compound by now." If you go there, won't there be a fight?
Jiang Shiyue couldn't understand what Liu was thinking. She sighed softly and asked him, "Where's Yangyang?"
Big Liu was stunned for a moment. "What the hell!" He raised his hand and slapped his head. "Look at my stupid brain! Chen Ying clearly told me to go to the instructor's house to pick up Yangyang first and then come pick you up."
He was in such a hurry that he forgot to pick up Yangyang.
Jiang Shiyue didn't say anything and jumped back onto the back of the bicycle.
*****
Jiang Shiyue and Da Liu returned to the family compound and saw a group of people gathered at her door.
I also saw an unexpected person in the crowd, Zhang Cui.
Jiang Shiyue narrowed her eyes. Zhang Cui should be in the grocery store at this time, why would she appear here?
Moreover, Jiang Shiyue's gaze fell on Zhang Cui. When did she become so close to Zhang Sufen?
Zhang Sufen is short, and she stood on tiptoe and looked inside.
Jiang Shiyue didn’t have time to think about it, she had to find Yangyang first.
Although Yangyang has gotten much better recently, he is still not a healthy child.
She didn't want Yangyang to be stimulated.
Lu Zheng said that if Yangyang returns to his old state, it would be difficult to cure him.
Jiang Shiyue was about to turn around and go check on Mengmeng's house when she heard a sharp, middle-aged woman's voice scolding, "Chen Shanhe, you've grown up and become too independent now, haven't you? You didn't even tell your family about something as big as getting married and having children? I was wondering why you haven't sent money home in the past three years! So you've been living your own little life here?"
Jiang Shiyue frowned and looked towards the source of the sound.
A middle-aged woman stood with her back to the door. She was not tall, not thin, with hair that reached past her ears. She pinched her waist and cursed Chen Shanhe.
Next to her was an old woman with gray hair tied in a bun at the back of her head. She wore a gray-blue jacket with a half-opening buttoned top and black trousers tied at the ankles with a cloth belt, revealing a pair of bound feet that had been damaged by the remnants of feudalism.
The old lady stood aside timidly, wiping away her tears.
Chen Shanhe stood in front of the square table, holding Yangyang in front of him with one hand, his expression calm, "Sister-in-law, I was wrong to hide my marriage from you, but I still send money home every month for the past three years, without a break."
"Oh!" the middle-aged woman sneered, "Chen Shanhe, I'm not as educated as you and can't read. But I'm not stupid enough to let you fool me! Even pork prices have gone up now, and you've been sending home ten yuan for years? I've heard that your salary has increased to seventy or eighty yuan now! Is it appropriate for you to only give ten yuan to your family?"
"Chen Shanhe, don't be so heartless! Let's not talk about the years you were away from home. It was your eldest brother and I who took care of our parents. Let's talk about you. Did you grow up in our family? Were your eldest brother and I the ones who provided you with food and shelter? Is this how you treat us?"
"I was busy arranging your marriage back home, and you quietly got married without even telling your family. What? Now that you're capable and an officer, you want to sever ties with us, right? No wonder they say the barking dog bites!"
"Chen Shanhe, you're an ungrateful person! You neglect your paralyzed father and only care about your own little family, right? I heard you treat your wife very well. You give her thirty yuan in pocket money every month! You buy her new clothes every month, never the same. We have an old saying in the countryside: a mountain rat has a long tail, and once he gets married, he forgets his mother. That's exactly what's going on with you!"
"People who do too many immoral things will be punished. Chen Shanhe, God is watching what you do. If you hadn't secretly married, would you have given birth to a little fool? This is God's punishment for you!"
“…”
The middle-aged woman had a loud voice and spoke quickly, chattering away without even taking a breath, leaving no room for others to get a word in.
Chen Shanhe covered Yangyang's ears, lowered his eyes and had an expressionless face.
Jiang Shiyue's brows gradually furrowed as he listened.
She didn't want to interfere in Chen Shanhe's family affairs and planned to quietly take Yangyang to the city.
Unexpectedly, the middle-aged woman attacked indiscriminately and even spared Yangyang.
She couldn't stand this.
Her eyes fell on Zhang Sufen's gloating face, her expression turned cold, and she raised her foot.
But she didn't expect Zhang Cui to enter the house before her.
