Old man Li complained quietly, "You should have a good talk with your mother about this. She complains every time I turn on the radio, and she's reluctant to turn it off."
"Don't talk nonsense, when did I become like this?"
Old Lady Li retorted, refusing to admit it.
Seeing the two bickering, Li Mingqing said with a smile: "Why are you like Xiaohong? You are such a child."
"Who says it isn't? Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, Xiaozhe and Xiaohong have grown up so much, and we are old too."
"You are very young."
He got married early and was only in his sixties after being a grandfather for more than ten years.
"Dad, since we're not living at home, I'll leave Wangcai in your care. He's easy to raise, just don't let him starve."
"Don't worry, I will definitely feed him until he is plump."
After he finished speaking, he added, “By the way, Wang Mazi got a little female dog from somewhere and wants a fierce dog like Wangcai.”
"What do you mean?"
"Find a wife for Wangcai."
"No, don't mess around. Wangcai is not an ordinary dog."
"I know Wangcai is a wolfdog, it's okay."
Li Mingqing said seriously, "What do you know? Wangcai is a pure wolf. Don't mess around with Wang Mazi. Wangcai will definitely look down on the little local dogs in the village."
Now it was Old Man Li's turn to be confused.
"What! Wolfdog!"
"Yeah, I brought it back from the mountains. Don't tell anyone. Just treat it as a little wolfdog."
"Oh my goodness."
He remembered Wangcai's ferocious look before.
It turned out to be a real wolf.
No wonder Zhang Jinong, who was previously scratched by a wolf, would take a detour every time he saw Wangcai.
He would be scared too.
Old Lady Li came out with a winnowing basket.
Seeing his startled look, I asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"
"It's okay, Ming Qing just asked us to look after Wangcai."
"This is a small matter. I promise to take good care of it."
When Li Mingqing left, Old Man Li followed him out and whispered, "Don't tell your mother about this, or she might get scared."
The little wolfdog that I had been watching for several years suddenly turned into a real wolf.
Old man Li patted his heart.
Fortunately, I am in good health, otherwise I would be scared to death after hearing it.
Li Mingqing is also outrageous.
Dare to keep a wolf at home.
When Li Mingqing returned, Sun Jiaxue was sitting at the stone table with her three children.
There was freshly cut watermelon on the table.
"Dad, come and eat watermelon."
"You can eat first. You don't have to wait for me to come back."
"That won't do. You have to wait for daddy. It looks so sweet when it's red."
A family of five ate watermelon happily.
"Come, try this peach. It was sent by your uncle and sister-in-law from the Zhou family."
Xiaozhe took the peach, looked at it, and took a bite.
“Wow, it’s really delicious.”
Niuniu said, "Mom, at noon, Wu Xiaoya came to me and asked for an unused book. She said she wanted it for Grandpa Wu to roll cigarettes with, so I gave her the notebook I had used before."
"Wu Xiaoya? I haven't seen her for several days."
"She collects firewood, pheasant eggs, and wild duck eggs in the mountains every day. Dad, I heard that Xiaoya's mother has started looking for a husband for her."
Hearing this, Li Mingqing and Sun Jiaxue looked at each other.
She started looking for a husband before she even reached adulthood.
This is obviously aimed at the man's betrothal gift.
Niu Niu didn't know the twists and turns involved, she just found it novel.
Sister Da Niu is about the same age as Wu Xiaoya and is still in school. Why does she suddenly want to find a husband?
"Little girl is so pitiful."
"She was raised by the old couple of the Wu family. Zhou Xiaoshuang wanted to pick the fruits when the child grew up. It was really a good calculation."
"Auntie Wu will definitely not agree."
A quarrel broke out in the Wu family that evening.
This was the cause of the quarrel.
In the hot summer, after the sun sets, the villagers all go outside to enjoy the cool air.
When the villagers heard the sound, they all gathered around.
Li Mingqing also followed.
"How can you be so cruel? Are you still human if you kiss a little girl when she's so young?"
Old Mrs. Wu pointed at Zhou Xiaoshuang and cursed.
"She's not a kid anymore. She's a teenage girl. Mother-in-law, please listen to me first and don't get so angry."
"Who is your mother-in-law? Go away now, don't force me to chase you away with a stick."
"How could you say that? It really hurts me."
The villagers who were watching the excitement thought it was outrageous.
When did Zhou Xiaoshuang become so cautious? She has always been cautious in doing things.
Now she looks like a young wife being bullied by her evil mother-in-law.
Fortunately, everyone knows what she looks like.
"Stop pretending. I don't agree with this, and you'd better give up this idea as soon as possible."
When Zhou Xiaoshuang saw that softening his stance was useless, he revealed his true colors.
"You old fool, I'm really giving you face. I gave birth to this little girl, I'm her biological mother, if I don't make the decision on this matter, who will? Only I have the final say!"
Wu Xiaoya stood next to Old Lady Wu.
His hand tightly grasped the sleeve of Old Lady Wu.
"What a vicious woman! Even a tiger wouldn't eat its own cubs, yet you're bent on pushing your own daughter into the fire. Someone like you isn't worthy of being a mother."
Wu Liguo, who was standing next to him, said nothing.
Old Man Wu said, "Liguo, quickly take your wife away."
"Dad, I think the little girl has really grown up. Let's find her now, and when we find a good family, we can marry her off directly, so that she won't be helpless when she grows up."
"How could you—how could you say such a thing!"
"I'm doing this for the good of our family. In a few years, Erbao will be grown up. He'll be your grandson, so we have to make preparations for him. We only have one room at home, so how can we live there? We need to build two more, which will cost a lot of money."
