Since we have separated and become independent, it is obviously inappropriate to stay in the Xu family for a long time.
Purchasing land and building a new house became a top priority to avoid criticism in the long run.
Although he himself does not care much about the outside world's evaluation, he has made a promise to Xu Qinghe.
He always kept it in mind and vowed to achieve it.
Xu Qinghe understood his thoughts and after a moment's thought, she responded, "Wait a moment. I'll wash up and go with you."
Considering that asking the village director to preside over the division of the family at the wedding banquet in the daytime had already offended someone.
The village director's mood is probably even more complicated at this time.
As a man, Yin Yunjie is not good at expressing himself verbally.
It might be difficult to convince them alone, so Xu Qinghe understood that his mediation was essential.
"OK."
Yin Yunjie readily accepted her suggestion, took the initiative to go to the kitchen to boil hot water, and also prepared foot bath water for Zhu Yunxiu.
Today is their wedding day, and Zhu Yunxiu is particularly happy. After instructing the two to go early and come back early, she went back to her room to rest.
Xu Qinghe simply fixed her makeup and casually put a handful of melon seeds and a few candies into the cloth bag.
Set off towards the village director's house side by side with Yin Yunjie.
As the two figures gradually moved away, Sun Youfang and Xu Jianguo dared to peek out quietly.
Xu Jianguo looked worried and whispered to his mother, "Mom, are you really going to let those two move in with us? If they do that, how can we still make a living?"
Xu Jianguo originally thought that after Xu Qinghe got married, he could get rid of this big worry.
He imagined that she was suffering outside, but he never expected that they would move back to her parents' home. How could he accept this?
But he couldn't do anything to Xu Qinghe, who seemed weak but was actually smart.
Even more, nothing could shake Yin Yunjie's indestructible backing, day after day.
The frustration in my heart grew like spring grass, difficult to contain.
"You think I'm feeling relieved? It's all because that mischievous little girl caught your weakness. Qin Xunfu, who came today, is no ordinary man. He has considerable influence in the police station. Do you really dare to touch his tiger whiskers?"
Xu Jianguo shook his head helplessly, knowing full well the complex network of relationships behind Qin Xunfu.
This is why he had to keep a low profile and stay at home to avoid the limelight.
"It's all your fault. You pushed her into the Yin family's fire pit for no reason. If she had married someone else, she wouldn't have gotten into all this trouble!"
While Xu Jianguo was complaining, he glared at his mother Sun Youfang fiercely.
Sun Youfang did not get angry when facing his son's criticism.
Instead, a wave of self-blame welled up in my heart, thinking that it was my decision that indirectly led to the child's predicament.
She forced a smile. "Who could have predicted that the girl's fate was so strong that she could climb up to the big tree of Yin Yunjie? Jianguo, from now on, you just stay at home and don't go out and get into trouble. The world out there is complicated, and I'm counting on you to stay safe. If anything happens to you, how will I live..."
"Alright, alright, stop nagging! Give me some money. I have something urgent to deal with. If she dares to touch me, I'll teach her a lesson!"
Xu Jianguo's face was full of impatience. He was always the one who schemed against others.
When it is someone else's turn to ride on his head, he will definitely settle the account.
When Sun Youfang heard this, her heartstrings suddenly tightened, and she guessed that her son was going to cause trouble for Xu Qinghe.
It might have been possible in the past, but things are different now. Xu Qinghe has Yin Yunjie to protect him, and his son might be walking into a tiger's mouth on this trip.
She hesitated to speak, wanting to persuade Xu Jianguo to give up the idea.
But the son said impatiently: "Mom, I will be back as soon as I finish my work."
Xu Jianguo has been naughty since he was a child and has done all kinds of bad things. Even the dogs in the village would avoid him when they saw him.
This headache and anxiety tormented Sun Youfang day and night.
With an only son like this, he will have no one to rely on when he grows old. How worrying is his future?
Sun Youfang's simplest wish is that Xu Jianguo can turn over a new leaf.
Returning to the countryside, working hard, year after year, he accumulated a small fortune.
If I find him a wife, I can also enjoy my old age and family life.
So, even though she knew this move was extremely dangerous, she finally softened her heart at her son's eager gaze: "Mom only has ten dollars left. If I give it to you, I'm afraid you'll have to tighten your belt for the rest of your life."
Xu Jianguo's impatience grew stronger, and he practically roared, "Just give it to me. Do you think I'll let you starve? Once I settle this matter, the money in her hands will naturally fall into our pockets."
Sun Youfang was touched by his son's bold words. Thinking that his son was smart, he stopped trying to dissuade him and turned around to quietly get the money.
Xu Jianguo took the money and left without looking back, while Sun Youfang kept giving him advice behind him.
He put them all out of his mind and never heard them.
Holding these ten heavy bills, he felt a subtle excitement in his heart.
This unexpected fortune was enough for him to share a few happy card games with his buddies. As for how to "remind" Xu Qinghe of her inappropriate words and deeds, he had already weaved countless scenarios in his mind.
At the same time, Yin Yunjie accompanied Xu Qinghe and slowly walked into the threshold of the village director's mansion.
Xu Qinghe took the initiative to step forward and knocked lightly on the old wooden door.
The person who greeted them was not the usually dignified village chief, but the village chief's wife with a slightly solemn expression.
Obviously, the village director has not fully recovered from his previous displeasure.
When I first met Xu Qinghe, the lines on the lady's face seemed a little stiff.
However, when she noticed the exquisite gift box in Xu Qinghe's hand.
Containing valuable mountain delicacies and homemade wine, her expression gradually softened.
Xu Qinghe tactfully held his wife's rough but warm hand.
She gently placed the carefully prepared basket in the other person's palm, a smile as bright as the sun blooming on her face: "Auntie, I am so grateful for the help of the village chief today. Yin Yunjie and I came here specially to express our gratitude!"
After saying this, she gently patted the back of the village chief's wife's hand, a gesture that was both intimate and respectful.
Before he finished speaking, Xu Qinghe didn't leave his wife any room for politeness and spoke out his thoughts.
There was a barely perceptible choking in her voice: "Aunt, I know that what happened today has embarrassed the village chief. But you can also see that I am not welcomed by the Yin family, and they are also indifferent to Yin Yunjie. If we are forced to live together, and Yin Yunjie returns to the barracks in the future, leaving me alone, it is hard to imagine how much bitterness I will suffer. I lost my mother when I was young, and my father and stepmother did not care much for me. Perhaps because of this, my personality has some edges and corners, which can easily lead to misunderstandings. But Yin Yunjie has always been consistent and wholeheartedly devoted to me. If it were not for the village chief's righteous intervention, our future path is really unimaginable..."
Having said this, she tilted her head slightly and used her fingertips to quietly wipe away the tears that were about to fall from the corners of her eyes.
The village chief's wife had originally prepared harsh words to reprimand Yin Yunjie for his impulsive behavior.
But seeing Xu Qinghe's sincere expression, all the words of blame turned into a sigh from the bottom of his heart.
