Chapter 172
Xuan He smiled only after getting his father's assurance.
He would not let Aunt Bai and her son stay alone with his father if he followed his father to help Aunt Bai.
Although Zhang Chaolang went to help, his attitude made Bai Hongmei a little disappointed.
They were each other's first love, but for some reasons, they were unable to be together.
Now, he has the opportunity to move forward, but why is Zhang Chaolang not excited at all?
"Hongmei, it's done. I'll leave first. I have to take Xuanhe to see my grandma.
It's been delayed for a while. If it doesn't arrive soon, the old lady will be anxious. ”
Zhang Chaolang expressed his meaning tactfully that they were not suitable.
"Chao Lang, you should understand my thoughts."
Bai Hongmei felt something was wrong. She wanted to do something, otherwise she would have no chance.
"Auntie, your clothes are unbuttoned."
Xuan He has been keeping an eye on his father and the others. He can't let his father be bullied.
He had heard that some people, when they wanted to marry someone, would unbutton their clothes and throw themselves on the man they were going to marry.
This is what Xuan He heard from the two ladies in the family compound. They spoke very loudly and he could hear it even though he was far away.
Although he didn't know why he could get married by unbuttoning his clothes, he didn't dare to ask his father. He intuitively felt that he would be beaten if he asked.
“Ahem…”
Zhang Chaolang couldn't help it, he glanced at Xuan He, kid, does he know what this means?
"Well, um, um, auntie will get you some food."
Bai Hongmei suddenly stopped knowing how to do it. I wonder if she did it intentionally or unintentionally.
The dormitory of the unit is only about 10 square meters, and there is not much space left after putting a bed.
She turned and walked out, feeling a little embarrassed.
Zhang Chaolang took Xuan He's hand and hurried out. Bai Hongmei's son didn't know what had happened.
How come all of a sudden, mom, uncle, and brother all went out?
When Bai Hongmei came back, Zhang Chaolang and his father had already left.
She had already understood that Zhang Chaolang thought differently from her. He had no such intentions towards her and did not want to move forward with her.
It would be a lie to say that they didn't feel sad. They once liked each other so much and they really tried hard to be together.
But now that there is no resistance, why can't we be together?
Bai Hongmei didn't understand and was very confused. Without Zhang Chaolang, she and Junjun would have a hard time.
Zhang Chaolang left without thinking about Bai Hongmei's thoughts. He just wanted to know whether Xuan He knew what his previous actions meant.
"Xuan He, why are you asking about the buttons on Auntie's clothes?"
"The ladies in the family compound said that if a woman wanted to marry a man, she would unbutton her clothes and throw herself on him.
I don't want Aunt Bai to marry you, and I'm also afraid that she will pounce on you. ”
When Xuan He mentioned Bai Hongmei, he felt like he was facing a formidable enemy and his whole body tensed up.
"Xuan He, Dad will not marry Aunt Bai. If Dad wants to get married, he will ask for your opinion."
Zhang Chaolang picked up Xuan He and patted his back gently to make him relax.
"Dad, I'm sorry. I'm a burden to you. I don't want you to be like mom, marry someone else, have another child, and forget about me."
When Xuan He saw his mother before, he felt a little strange. It seemed that his mother was not like that.
"No, no, Dad will never forget you.
No matter who Dad marries in the future or whether he has other children, Xuan He is the most important. ”
Zhang Chaolang also heard that Ren Huan got married and had a child.
"When did you see Mom?"
“I saw it in front of the canteen of the compound when my uncle got married.
She called me, but I didn't say anything. She cried. Later, a man came to her with a child in his arms, and I followed my second aunt. ”
Xuan He hadn't seen his mother for a long time, and he felt sad. He wanted to leave with his second aunt at that time.
"Let's go home and visit grandma next week. Dad will make you something delicious when he gets home."
"Okay, stay with dad."
The father and son went home affectionately, not thinking about Bai Hongmei, not thinking about Ren Huan, not thinking about anyone else but just the two of them.
Xu Di and the others don’t know about Zhang Chaolang yet, and she is now wondering whether she is pregnant this time. Zhang Chaoyang called back yesterday and said that they had a mission and couldn't go home in the near future.
It's already the end of July, and Zhang Chaoyang has something to do. I wonder when he will return?
It is now 1974. If I get pregnant this time and give birth in 1975, by the time the college entrance examination is resumed in 1977, the child will be more than two years old.
At that time, she will rent or buy a house near the school, bring Grandma and Aunt Wu over, and take care of the two children nearby. What a perfect plan.
Another weekend, Zhang Chaolang brought Xuan He over.
Xu Di no longer thought about those things. Whether she was pregnant or not, she would know when the time came.
Xuan He hasn't come for several weeks. Nuan Nuan is very happy to see her brother and no longer mentions going to play with An Jian.
"Grandma, Second Aunt, there is an aunt who wants to marry Dad and become my stepmother."
Xuan He’s words surprised Xu Di, as he had guessed correctly before.
Grandma Qian glanced at her eldest grandson with a serious expression.
"Grandma, no, no, I didn't agree."
Zhang Chaolang didn't expect that his son would complain. Didn't he and his father agree that he would not marry Bai Hongmei?
"What does the woman do? What's the situation?"
"Grandma, no, that's not it, it's just, ah, that woman is Bai Hongmei."
Zhang Chaolang was completely confused and didn't know what to say.
"Who is Bai Hongmei?"
Grandma Qian didn’t recognize him and she was a little confused.
"That's the person I was dating before, the one my mother didn't approve of."
Zhang Chaolang explained that his grandmother didn't know Bai Hongmei and he was not familiar with her at that time.
"So her name is Bai Hongmei, which sounds pretty nice. Is she divorced too?"
Xu Di asked Xuan He to take his sister to play with toys, and she listened from the side, feeling that there was a story.
Zhang Chaolang didn't expect Chaoyang's wife to sit there and listen to gossip so openly, and it was not easy to ask her to avoid it.
"It's not a divorce, but it's also considered a divorce."
Zhang Chaolang simply recounted the situation of Bai Hongmei's ex-husband's family. He really didn't expect that he would have anything to do with Bai Hongmei.
"This is really not possible. Your status is not suitable, unless you want to retire."
Grandma Qian considered more. Comrade Bai’s situation was too complicated. He would hinder Chaolang and would also cause Xuanhe to be talked about.
“Grandma, I’m not a young man in my twenties anymore, I know the pros and cons.
If not for anything else, for myself and Xuan He, it is impossible for me to be with her.
It's not like no one knows about what happened between us. If we really got together, there would be a lot of gossip, and I wouldn't be able to explain it even if I had a mouth.
At that time, Ren Huan insisted that I could not forget Bai Hongmei and wanted a divorce.
Actually, I really don’t have any thoughts. We haven’t seen each other for many years, so I don’t have any thoughts at all.
I really don't get along with Ren Huan, and it has nothing to do with anyone else's business. ”
Zhang Chaolang explained his divorce and felt helpless.
"Okay, just keep this in mind. If you want to get married in the future, it's best not to find someone with children. If you have a bunch of children, you will be the one who is upset."
"I know, grandma. I don't want to spend the rest of my life in a lawsuit."
Zhang Chaolang spoke his true feelings to his grandmother and felt much more relaxed.
Xuan He didn't know yet that his casual remark had put his father in an awkward situation and also exposed his second aunt to gossip.
