Chapter 72 Regret
Nowadays, every family has several sons and daughters, and many families have daughters.
They have the instinct to favor sons over daughters, but their daughter is also their child, so these words are too harsh to hear.
Shen Quanfu, who had always been the baby of the family, burst into tears when he was called a money-loser for the first time.
"I'm not the money-loser, Shen Daya is!"
"Hey, why are you scolding my child? You want to flatter Daya's stinky feet? Is she here? Can I pay attention to you?" Mother Shen put her hands on her hips and scolded.
"Don't argue with her. The whole family is confused. If you don't grab such a capable daughter, and treat your illiterate son who doesn't even want to read as a treasure, you will regret it sooner or later."
The villagers looked down on them and walked past them in groups of three or four, leaving only the Shen family and the Li family.
The couple from the second branch of the Shen family were coaxing their son and scolding Chen Zhi. The couple from the first branch of the Shen family urged them to go to the city to find Chen Zhi, and then stay in the city.
The Li family was also feeling very sad, as they saw the new daughter-in-law who was supposed to marry into their family getting better and better after the marriage change.
First, he was spotted by a big boss overseas, and then he had technical skills. Now he moved to a villa in the city with the big boss and lives a rich life.
This heart feels like it's soaked in acid water.
Mother Li looked at Li Changjun with a sullen face.
"Look at the wives you picked. One goes to the farm, and the other goes to the city to enjoy life. You can only see that face, right?"
Li Changjun has been in a daze these days and doesn't want to admit that he made the wrong choice of wife.
But Chen Zhi is living a good life, that is clearly visible.
He failed the exam to get a job in the factory, and while he was still working in the fields, Chen Zhi was already able to move to the city to live a good life, which made him feel very upset.
"Don't say anything, mother. Shen Hui is my wife now, your daughter-in-law."
Li Changjun agreed to the marriage exchange because Shen Hui was prettier than Shen Zhi.
But now, Chen Zhi married into the Zhou family and lives a good life. She works as Jiang Yu's assistant and does not have to do farm work. Her skin has become much whiter. Although she is still thin, she looks much better than Shen Hui.
On the other hand, after Shen Hui married into the Li family, she didn't think about taking good care of herself. She was covered in dirt all day long and was not as pretty as before.
I'm afraid it will be even uglier when he comes back from suffering on the farm for several months.
Li Changjun frowned and did not attribute the reason why Shen Hui became ugly after getting married to him.
He just felt that Shen Hui was unable to balance work and cleaning herself up, and that she became ugly and embarrassed him.
"What daughter-in-law? You haven't consummated your marriage yet. Wait until Shen Hui comes back and divorce her. The Li family can't afford such a shameful daughter-in-law!"
Mother Li's slightly old face was full of harshness.
divorce? Li Changjun was tempted, but there were no divorced people in the village, and he didn't want to be the topic of conversation again.
Regret flashed across Li Changjun's eyes. If he had chosen to save Chen Zhi at that time, he would not agree to the marriage exchange.
Is it that he is the one who is going to work in the factory now, and is he the one who is going to live in a small villa in the city?
Zhou Tinghuai used to be a second-rate guy who was laughed at by the villagers. How could he be a worker and have a promising woman like Chen Zhi as his wife?
He can only dig for food in the fields and marry Shen Hui, a troublemaker who gets into trouble every other day?
Li Changjun and his mother both had the same look of regret on their faces.
I regret agreeing to the marriage exchange, regret letting Shen Hui into the family, and missing out on a potential stock like Shen Zhi.
Yang Chunyan watched from the side and felt that the Li family didn't seem to have much of a future.
Now Shen Hui has returned to the farm and is responsible for most of the housework.
Yang Chunyan looked down at her hands which had become much rougher, gritted her teeth, and became ruthless.
She stayed in the Li family as a widow, not to live such a hard life.
Since Li Changjun is a useless good-for-nothing, she has to make plans early.
And she had to go find that severance pay.
On the other side, after several hours' journey, Jiang Yu and others finally arrived in Lu City.
After the small villa was renovated, it looked a lot brighter.
The garden has been tidied and planted with flowers and plants suitable for this season. It is pleasing to the eye and brings life to the small villa.
Jiang Yu walked in and nodded with satisfaction. After entering the house, the style of the house had also changed. It had a somewhat European style. The crystal chandelier hanging in the living room was particularly beautiful.
Chen Zhi quietly gave Jiang Yu a thumbs up, saying, "My sister has a good aesthetic taste."
Zhou Tinghuai was dazzled as soon as he came in. He thought this small villa was more beautiful than an international hotel.
The small villa has three floors and a attic. The first floor can be used for the housekeeper and nanny to live in, and the two floors above are where they live.
Zhang Yun was a capable secretary and had already hired a nanny and a cook.
Both of them were around 30 or 40 years old. Knowing that the owner was going to move in today, they cleaned the house early and went out to buy some fresh vegetables.
"Miss, the room has been cleaned and you can move in directly." Aunt Zhang, the nanny, said politely.
Before they came here to work, they knew that the person who bought the villa was a wealthy lady who had returned from overseas.
I heard that he is very familiar with Mayor Zhang, and the house was bought with the help of the mayor's secretary.
Therefore, they were very vigilant when working. Apart from fulfilling their duties, they did not keep in mind what they saw or heard, and they were not allowed to say anything to others.
Jiang Yu nodded. She stood with Zhou Xiao and spoke in a light voice.
"My second brother and I live on the second floor. You can choose whether you want to live on the second or third floor."
Now Zhou Xiao's legs are recovering quickly under the guidance of rehabilitation experts and doing rehabilitation every day. He can barely walk without crutches, but he can't walk for too long, so it is suitable for him to live on the second floor.
Zhou Xiao had no idea where to live. He would be very happy if he could live closer to his fiancée.
Zhou Tinghuai just followed here and didn’t dare to make a decision on his own, so he looked at his wife.
Chen Zhi actually wanted to live on the same floor as Jiang Yu, and sneak into her best friend's room to sleep together at night. That would be so nice.
But with Zhou Xiao around, she didn't want to be a light bulb. Besides, Zhou Tinghuai was quite noisy. What if he disturbed Jiang Yu's rest? So she could only settle for the next best thing.
"The third floor," she said.
Jiang Yu knew that she would choose the third floor. The decoration of the master bedroom on the third floor was selected by her according to Chen Zhi's preferences, which would definitely surprise her.
"The master bedroom on the third floor is bigger, you guys should stay in that room."
After hearing what was said, Zhou Tinghuai carried his and his wife's luggage upstairs. He was very skillful and conscious not to let his wife get tired.
"Let him move and sit down to drink some water." Jiang Yu pulled Zhou Xiao to sit down, and then naturally let Chen Zhi sit down and rest.
Aunt Zhang poured tea for the three of them and brought them some cakes to fill their stomachs.
After introducing the guests to the host family, Aunt Miao quickly returned to the kitchen to continue cooking.
"This dessert is well made." Jiang Yu took a bite. It was soft, glutinous, sweet, and her lips and teeth were filled with the scent of roses.
She was a little surprised. She didn't expect that the cook Zhang Yun hired was such a good cook.
"Xiao Miao's father used to be the chef of a state-owned restaurant, and his ancestors were also famous chefs." Aunt Zhang said with a smile.
We are all colleagues and will be dealing with each other for a long time, so we can still help each other out with some casual words.
