Chapter 176: Alone in an empty room?
Zou Zhou was originally very sad, but when he heard Erhe's words and looked at He Zheng's arrogant expression, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.
It was a bit embarrassing, so I blew two snot bubbles.
"It's so embarrassing."
In front of his good sister's in-laws, Zou Zhou decided to dig a hole and bury himself.
Erhe smiled, turned around and blinked her right eye at her family, "Mom, He Zheng, we didn't see anything, right?"
The two of them reacted really quickly and were only stunned for a second.
They immediately said in unison: "Yes, yes, we didn't see anything, we didn't see anything."
Zou Zhou smiled again, with tears still on her face, and her eyes curved into two crescents, but soon she pouted again.
"Erhe, my mother wants to marry me to a man nine years older than me."
The crux of the problem is not the age difference. Nine years is a bit of a difference, but it is not the most exaggerated. The real reason that made Zou Zhou cry so sadly was for another reason.
"My mom doesn't care how old the man is. It's just because he's the son of a big boss in our town. His previous wife died of illness, and now he wants to marry a younger one. My mom told me that their family is well-off, and after marrying into the family, I don't have to work or enjoy life. If this marriage is really as good as she said, why didn't she let my sister marry? There's an order of seniority, and my sister hasn't even married yet, so why is it my turn to get married first? She's just being partial."
She had always been humble at home, and now Zou's mother wanted to control her marriage. Zou Zhou was very angry and had a quarrel with her family because of this. She also took several leaves from the supply and marketing cooperative.
Erhe probably guessed something. After all, this marriage was not a particularly good one. If it was really so perfect, it would definitely be left to the eldest daughter that Zou's mother liked.
"Erhe, I don't want to go back. Can I stay at your house for a few days?"
I know that her request puts Erhe in a difficult position, but she is really forced into it.
Erhe did not agree immediately, mainly because she was not the one who made the decision about this family, and her parents-in-law were still there. Out of respect, she still had to ask their opinions. Otherwise, it would be fine to let Zou Zhou live with Aunt Nie, and she could also go back and live there for a while.
"There's an empty room at home. I'll clean it up for you later." Wang Xiu had no objections and said cheerfully, "You can just live at home. Don't feel burdened."
"Thank you, Auntie. Thank you so much."
He Zheng had no objection. His wife's friend could come and stay.
But he didn't expect that he would have to stay alone in the empty room at night?
"I'm going to talk to Zou Zhou. We'll rest together tonight. You go to bed first and don't wait for me."
Holding a pillow, Erhe took out some pajamas and gave one to Zou Zhou as well. After all, they made clothes and had no shortage of basic pajamas.
He Zheng, who had brushed himself clean and was waiting to hug his wife, said: "????"
"Wife, what about me?"
The man with long arms and legs sat on the bed, and somehow he looked a little pitiful.
Erhe had already walked to the door, but after thinking about it, she felt soft-hearted and walked back.
Under He Zheng's expectant gaze, Erhe leaned over and kissed him on the cheek, "Compensation."
When she wanted to step away, her arm was suddenly grabbed by He Zheng. This time, he reacted very quickly, staring at Er He with his dark eyes, "Not enough."
Erhe raised her eyebrows, not understanding what he meant.
Next second.
His lips pressed against mine.
No one knew when this guy started to evolve, but now he could use his tongue and kissed fiercely and urgently, causing both of them to be panting and breathing unevenly when they separated. He Zheng was also aroused and pressed his lips against hers.
"Don't,"
Erhe quickly covered his mouth with her hand and said, "I'm going to accompany Zou Zhou."
After coming out of the room, Erhe stood at the door to calm her breathing, patted her face a few times, and then went to the small house where Zou Zhou lived.
Zou Zhou happened to be sitting on the bed and was surprised to see her coming over. "Erhe, you don't have to accompany me. I can do it alone."
She felt that living in the He family was already causing a lot of trouble to others.
"It's okay, I'll talk to you."
Erhe always remembered that at the beginning, she relied on Zou Zhou to get a lot of things from the department store, and Zou Zhou also helped her sell a lot of dried meat and other things. Now that Zou Zhou encountered problems, she, as a friend, of course had to accompany him.
This is what being a good sister means.
"It's so kind of you."
The two of them were lying in the same bed in their pajamas. Zou Zhou had something on her mind, and under Erhe's guidance, she spoke out a lot of what was on her mind.
The main reason is that her mother is partial to her. It seems that many people will encounter this problem, especially at this time when almost every family has many children, so how can they really treat them equally? Zou Zhou also mainly wanted to express his feelings.
"I can tolerate everything else, but marriage is a lifelong relationship. I'm only 19. If I follow her arrangements, what will happen to me for the next few decades? With her attitude now, even if I really get wronged in my in-laws' family in the future, how can my mother help me? I won't marry her, absolutely not."
"Tomorrow I'll go with you to the county town, and then ask about that leader's son to see what his family situation is like. After we understand clearly, we'll go to your house. If there really is a problem at that family, we're in the right, and we won't marry him."
"Um."
Zou Zhou couldn't help but grab Erhe's hand. Her hand was cold. "Erhe, actually I have looked for a few other friends, but they all told me to listen to my mother. They also said that she is my biological mother after all and will not harm me. Only you believe me, I..."
Before coming to Ku Shui Village, Zou Zhou actually thought that if Lian Erhe asked her to marry, perhaps she would accept it.
Everyone says so, maybe she is wrong.
Fortunately, Erhe understands her.
The two talked for a long time and didn't fall asleep until almost 12 o'clock.
When they got up the next day, Wang Xiu had already prepared breakfast and put it on the table, asking them to wash up and come over to eat.
Zou Zhou felt embarrassed for getting up late at someone else's house, so he pulled Erhe to the backyard.
"Erhe, your mother-in-law is so nice."
"Yes, my in-laws are all very nice."
The two of them stood at the backyard door and brushed their teeth. They took a big mouthful of water and spit it directly on the ground.
"You can praise her directly in front of her later, and she will definitely be happier."
Zou Zhou also laughed after hearing this, "Then I'll try it later."
After they washed up and had breakfast, Erhe discussed with He Zheng about going to the county town together. They had to understand the situation before they could make a decision.
"I'm sorry to trouble you." Zou Zhou also expressed his gratitude again and again.
Wang Xiu said, "It's not a big deal. Marriage is a lifelong event for a girl. There's nothing wrong with finding out more."
If you really don't ask about anything, that would be irresponsible of an elder.
After breakfast, the three of them prepared to go to the county town.
Zou Zhou doesn't know how to ride a bike, so she walked here. Erhe planned to ride her bike to take her here, and He Zheng rode another bike.
The three were about to leave the village when they saw a lot of people gathered in front of the Li family's door, it was particularly lively.
"What happened to the Li family? Why don't we go take a look first?"
"become."
Erhe and Zou Zhou talked about the situation of the Li family. Zou Zhou said that there was no rush for her matter and went to the Li family with them.
There is a quarrel in the Li family.
"Do you think I care about you? If I didn't feel sorry for you, if I didn't see that you were an orphan and your sister was lame, I wouldn't have asked you to marry into our family. But now you have the ability? And you still reject me? Are you worthy?" It was Zou Yan who pointed at Li Dong and cursed him.
She looked furious, which was quite strange.
If the introduction of a partner doesn't work out, they'll just move on to the next one. But this is the first time I've seen someone come to someone's house and curse after failing.
