Chapter 39 Which elder
An Zhixia was a little surprised. "How is that possible? Although your family's conditions are not as good as the Party Secretary's, it is still a wealthy family in the village. When you were in elementary school, your two brothers were able to work in the fields and earn full work points. Your aunt is a capable and capable person, and the village chief uncle also has extra subsidies. Everyone in your family loves you, so why do you need to worry about other people's things?"
Even as she was talking, she did not stop working, but instead did Fang Hongye's work. The radish was cut into even and thin pieces, and the cabbage was also cut into shreds, beautiful and neat, and there was nothing wrong with it. Maybe she was good-looking, well-educated, and particular about her conduct and behavior.
Fang Hongye used her good hand to pass her dishes and basins, and whispered, "When I was in the third grade, anyone with a little money at home could write with a fountain pen. Cui Tianhao had an uncle who was a cadre in the commune, and his family was one of the best in the area. He got a Hero brand fountain pen, which was black with a gold rim and looked very beautiful. It was also heavy, and it was said to cost more than ten yuan.
All the children in the school ran over to check, but the pen was lost within two days. No one admitted that they took it. Finally, Cui Tianhao said that the pen was just lost and it must be on the thief. So the teachers stopped the students who were going home after school and searched their bodies and school bags one by one in the playground. Finally, the pen was found in my school bag.
At that time, one or two hundred students and teachers looked at me in that way. It was clearly not me who took it, but the pen appeared in my schoolbag, and no one could explain it. My classmates called me a pen thief when they saw me, and I couldn't stand it and stopped going to school.
Because of this, my family and the Cui family became enemies. "
An Zhixia stopped what she was doing and asked, "Do you mean that Cui Tianhao from the third grade deliberately put the pen into your bag?"
Now it's five years of elementary school, two years of junior high school, and two years of high school. Cui Tianhao has been working for two years, which means it was eight years ago! He was twelve years old at that time, right?
"Well, the guy sitting behind me, Cui Tianhao, was a scorekeeper after graduating from middle school. He said he was bald when we were drinking. He got hungry during physical education class, so he sneaked back to eat some dry food, and saw Cui Tianhao putting a pen in my schoolbag.
Because of this, he became a scorekeeper after he mentioned it to the Cui family. "Speaking of this, Fang Hongye couldn't help but tears up, "At that time, my academic performance was good, and I got full marks in every exam. The teacher also said that I could go to the key junior high school in town, and then to the key high school, and maybe I could get into a key university.
But Cui Tianhao ruined all of this. I couldn't go to school anymore, and when I went out, kids would surround me and call me a pen thief. Even though it had been so long, when my dad and mom were looking for a partner for me, they knew about this after just a little inquiry. They thought I had a bad character since I was a child, and they were afraid that marrying me would bring trouble.
Or they are just some slackers, their families are poor, their mothers-in-law are vicious, and they still want us to give a generous dowry. Ha, even if I am an old sister-in-law at home, I will never accept this injustice! "
Once people's emotions are released, they can't be stopped. Fang Hongye wiped her tears after she finished speaking, and then she realized that she had revealed everything. "You, will you look down on me?"
"No," An Zhixia gritted her teeth and stomped the knife in her hand even more vigorously.
"Hey, is everyone busy?" A plump, white woman in a blue work suit walked in. She had sleeves on her cuffs and her ear-length hair was neatly tucked behind her ears with a hairpin. She had a smile on her face and a soft voice. She seemed like a very easy-going person.
"Oh, Tianhao's mother is back from visiting relatives in town? Won't she stay a few more days?"
"You are really hardworking, Chengjun. You didn't even take a rest at home when you came back yesterday. Instead, you came to help again early in the morning?"
"Aunt Cui, I heard that you went to town to look for a wife for your second son. How is it going? Do you find anyone you like?"
As soon as they saw someone coming, half of the girls, wives and old women working in the cafeteria came forward to greet him.
Aunt Cui smiled and washed her hands. She took over the cooking position skillfully, grabbed the corn dough, kneaded it a few times, and pressed it into a cake: "Now is the busy farming season, and I don't feel at ease living in the town."
"The girls in the town are all neat and tidy, educated and have jobs. But Tianhao said that marrying a wife is a lifelong thing, so he would rather get married later and choose someone who is compatible with him in all aspects. This will save him from constant friction in the future. It's better to be alone and live in peace."
Everyone flattered him again.
Fang Hongye whispered to An Zhixia, "That's Cui Tianhao's mother. No one can match her in superficial work. Otherwise, she wouldn't have raised someone like Cui Tianhao who digs holes for others while walking! If she splashes some water, my mother can argue with her, but look at the way she smiles when she sees people. Sigh, my mother will be persuaded for a long time even if she just points her finger at people."
So the one in front of us is the Lotus Master?
"Is this Xiao An, the educated youth? This is the first time we meet," Aunt Cui turned her head and saw the two girls whispering to each other, still smiling, "I also heard about what happened yesterday from your uncle."
An Zhixia cut all the vegetables with a few slurps and threw them onto the cutting board, leaving the knife stuck straight on it. She clapped her hands and smiled, "Oh? What did Secretary Cui say about me?"
The quick and fierce action made the whole cafeteria quiet. Aunt Cui just frowned and said, "Why are you so childish? The first aid manual is for the benefit of the people. You are the one who started it. Everyone thanks you. But where did these first aid methods come from? I don't need to tell you, right? Why are you still so excited?"
If Tianhao hadn't covered for you and fixed all your loopholes, who knows how big a mess would have happened."
An Zhixia walked up to her and took a look at her. Rural people get married early, even though Cui Tianhao was already 20 years old, but Second Aunt Cui was so plump that she didn't look like someone in her 40s. She moved her wrist, and before anyone could react, she grabbed Second Aunt Cui's collar and slapped her seven or eight times, causing her plump face to instantly turn red and swollen.
"Hey, why are you hitting people, girl?" The people around her hurried forward to pull her arm.
An Zhixia looked over angrily and said, "This is none of your business. Consider your own health before trying to intervene." As she said this, she kicked Cui Xiaomei who was trying to take sides in the dispute.
Such a tall and strong girl was kicked two meters away, fell and slid down the wall, crying out in pain.
The guys really didn't dare to take her words as a joke, and just said in a coy voice: "She is your elder after all, so you should talk to her in a nice way."
"How is she my elder? Is there anyone who would flatter someone else and take credit for their achievements while also looking down on and threatening them?" An Zhixia tightly grasped Second Aunt Cui's collar.
Although the other person was not as tall as her, he had surpassed the two of them horizontally. Now he was being carried by her like a little chicken, his face flushed with shame.
