Deng Yue hadn't been to Old Shi's house for a long time, and she was very happy to see Shi Liu: "If I had known you were going to the sea market, I would have asked you to help bring back some seafood. I feel uncomfortable in my mouth if I don't eat seafood for a meal now."
Shi Liu wasn't surprised by this. The saying "it's hard to leave one's hometown" might be due to the local cuisine. "Where's the classmate who used to send you seafood?"
"Ah!" Deng Yue felt a little sad. "She knows about my family. Everything else is fine, but my identity as her biological father keeps her at a distance. Her family doesn't want her to continue dating me, so..."
Deng Yue didn't need to elaborate on the rest of the words, as Shi Liu had guessed it. Even she had distanced herself from Deng Yue for some reason, so she nodded and agreed to Deng Yue's small request. "Even though you missed it this time, just tell me what you want to eat. I have plenty left and I'll give it to you directly."
Deng Yue's initially nervous mood suddenly calmed down, with a gentle smile on her lips: "Shiliu, thank you. I want to make shredded squid and kelp. If there are more salted fish, can you give me one more salted fish?"
When Shi Liu heard that the amount was so small, she thought Deng Yue was being embarrassed and quickly said, "Is this enough for you? You don't have to be polite with me. I bought several sacks of seafood this time."
Deng Yue waved her hands and said, "I can't eat that much at once. There are so many people here at the educated youth camp, and I'm sure some won't be jealous. I'll trade some more with you after the new house is built."
Shi Liu felt a headache when she thought of the educated youth who came to Baijia Village. She heard from her uncle that those educated youth were always looking for trouble.
These people accidentally saw the villagers exchanging things and even wanted to go to the commune to report the villagers. This really stirred up a hornet's nest. For a time, the relationship between the villagers and the educated youth began to deteriorate rapidly. Of course, the relationship between the original educated youth and the new educated youth also deteriorated rapidly. After all, each of them had exchanged things with the villagers, and some people even used money to buy the villagers' food.
Shi Liu couldn't understand. "What are they doing? They won't gain anything from reporting you. They're being targeted all day long and they don't know what's going on. Aren't they completely out of their minds?"
Deng Yue knew some of the inside story: "I heard that some educated youth in some places successfully returned to the city by reporting others. These people probably had the same idea."
They didn't even think about the fact that anyone who could return to the city through this channel had a strong background, which was far beyond the reach of these educated youth who had nothing.
Shi Liu also felt that those educated youth were dreaming. They all had too beautiful dreams and were simply being hated. She bet that after going to the fields in the spring, these educated youth would be assigned to hard and tiring jobs. If they dared to disobey, they were not the only ones who would oppress others. As the team leader, Uncle Shi was very familiar with such things.
Shi Liu chatted with other people he knew for a while, then went up to the bride and watched the bride and groom perform the ceremony.
Uncle Shi, the master of ceremonies, stood before Chairman Mao's portrait and spoke in a high voice, saying, "Today, our groom Shi Dongsheng and bride Sun Xiuxiu, before Chairman Mao's portrait... establish a revolutionary friendship, never leaving each other, and growing old together!"
Shi Liu watched as her fourth brother and his wife raised their right hands to take the oath. Suddenly, she remembered that she had taken the same oath when she was elected as a Party member in her previous life. She really missed it.
As the bride, Sun Xiuxiu did not go back to the house to wait, but went outside to entertain the guests.
Fourth Brother Shi led his new bride with a grin on his face, which made Su Sanlan look disgusted and feel that it was very embarrassing and conspicuous. However, because her daughter was around, she did not say anything extra. She only told him to take the bride to introduce her relatives so that she would recognize them when they met in the future.
Aunt Su looked at Su Sanlan with envy: "Third sister, you have finally accomplished your mission. Unlike us, who are so worried."
Su Sanlan curled her lips in disdain and said, "I think you didn't hit him hard enough. Give him a few good hits and see if he dares to do it again!"
Aunt Su was also helpless: "I only have this one son, I can't be separated from him."
Regarding this matter, Second Aunt Su also sided with Su Sanlan, telling her that it was all spoiled: "You don't have no daughters. Even if Shitou doesn't take care of you in the future, you won't have to worry about no one taking care of you. Just look at me and you will know. Now you still rely on your daughters for food and drink. Do you know which of my four daughters is unfilial? Although you used to favor your sons, you didn't abuse your daughters, so what's there to be afraid of!"
Seeing this, Su Sanlan continued, "Shitou is determined to marry that educated youth. That woman is no match for you. If you continue to be so soft-hearted, you'll definitely agree to Shitou marrying that woman. With all the hassle you've put in before the marriage, how can that woman not instigate Shitou's separation from you? And then what's the point of talking about whether you'll take care of her in her old age or not?"
Aunt Su turned pale with fear after hearing the scene described by Su Sanlan. How could she not know what kind of person her son was? He was a spoiled old man who was so unfilial to his parents that he could actually do such a thing.
It was not until this time that Aunt Su began to regret. If she had known this would happen, she should not have indulged her son. In the past, she always looked down on Su Sanlan's behavior of treating her daughter as a treasure and her son as grass. But now look at her, all her children are very filial, but her only son is an unfilial son who talks back to his parents for a woman. As for her daughters, they are still filial.
Aunt Su calmed herself down. Just like her second sister said, she had money to support her in her old age. If her son was useless, she could let her daughter take over.
The decision seemed to be made in a split second, but Aunt Su was truly heartbroken: "I'll go back and discuss it with the child's father. If it really doesn't work out, we'll just split up. Erhuang, your Juanzi has found a good partner, a handsome young man. I heard he's a soldier."
Second Aunt Su smiled proudly: "Yes, Zhou Fangxing's parents are both martyrs, so he plans to build a wedding house in our village."
Aunt Su looked at her second sister with some envy: "After all the hardships, we have finally come to a happy ending. Good days are yet to come. What do you say, I marry Xiaoya to Qingshan from our village?"
Shi Liu sat aside and ate melon silently. She had just heard about the fact that Shi Tou from Aunt Su's family was in love with a female educated youth from Baijia Village.
Although Deng Yue and others did not say it explicitly, they all hinted that Wang Yanan had an unclear relationship with the man from Baijia Village.
It is said that she was originally going to marry into the family of Lao Bai, the village secretary, but something happened in Baijia Village and the marriage was called off. Wang Yanan's target was originally her uncle's cousin Jiandang, but unfortunately Shi Jiandang was not an easy target and did not fall for her tricks at all. So she had no choice but to set her sights on Shitou, her only son.
Although they had never met, Shi Liu had a very bad impression of Wang Yanan. She watched coldly as her own mother instigated her aunt to deal with the unfilial son. In her opinion, it would be a blessing for cousin Shi Tou if the two could separate because of this.
