Zhang Weifang never dreamed that Feng Qiushuang would be such a person. This was really beyond her expectations.
When she thought of this, her favorable impression of Feng Qiushuang instantly dropped a lot. Even Liu Jiahua and Zhang Weifang, who had a close relationship with Feng Qiushuang, began to dislike her.
She immediately went to the next door to apologize to Aunt Feng:
"Aunt Feng, it's all my fault. I didn't expect the Liu family to have such family education."
Aunt Feng wiped her tears and said with a sob:
"Weifang, I don't blame you. It's Qiu Shuang's own fault. Liu Jiahua is more loyal than her. Whenever he comes to our house, he always brings a lot of gifts and speaks very politely."
Uncle Feng, smoking a cigarette, also expressed his opinion:
"Qiu Shuang isn't a bad person, but she's stupid. When someone instigates her, she thinks we're deliberately preventing her from getting married. That Liu brat is much smarter than her, and he even apologized to us in the end."
Zhang Weifang had long known that Liu Jiahua was shrewd. No matter what, things had come to this point and were irreversible.
Liu Jiahua's home is in a rural area on the outskirts of the city. Before getting married, he arranged for Feng Qiushuang to live with his aunt.
When the two got married, their clothes and pants were all borrowed. Their family only prepared a wedding room and a quilt for them, and nothing else.
On the wedding day, Feng Qiu Shuang couldn't wait to dress herself up early in the morning, and then waited for her groom with excitement.
The shabby wedding, the plain wedding room, and the ridicule of others could not stop her from running towards her love.
After the passionate wedding night, the inedible breakfast the next morning was a slap in Feng Qiu Shuang's face.
In Heilongjiang Province, in addition to cornmeal steamed bread, they also eat white flour, rice, sweet potatoes, and mushrooms, black fungus, pine nuts and other things.
It was the first time she ate the hard sorghum flour steamed bread. The bad taste was the worst thing. The more serious thing was that she actually had stomachache after eating it.
Moreover, the breakfast for a family of more than a dozen people consisted of steamed bread and rice soup, without even any pickles.
At the dinner table, her mother-in-law assigned her a task:
"Today is your first day married, so you don't have to work. Starting tomorrow, you and your sister-in-law will take turns cooking for the family."
Feng Qiushuang was stunned. She looked at her man for help. Liu Jiahua comforted her halfheartedly:
"It's okay, you can learn slowly, I'll help you."
Feng Qiu Shuang felt a little uncomfortable, but she quickly accepted the fact. After all, she was married and it was impossible for her not to work.
The following days took off in a chaotic and absurd manner. Liu Jiahua had to go to work, leaving Feng Qiushuang alone at home to act up and finally be bullied.
May Day came quickly. Zhang Weifang had just received a letter from home saying that her sister Zhang Weishuang had given birth to a big, fat son weighing eight kilograms a few days ago. The whole family was very happy.
Comparing the name Hu Zi, Zhang Weishuang wanted to name his son Gou Zi, but then he felt that Gou Zi sounded a bit ugly, so he finally chose Gou Xiao.
Zhang Weifang didn't understand what she was thinking, but she still showed her respect. She packed some soft cotton cloth, bought two bags of milk powder, and asked Lu Shi to help mail them back.
At the beginning of June, the sun gradually became hotter, and Zhang Weifang's life also gradually warmed up like the weather and became extremely busy.
The reason is simple. Xiao Hu is about to give birth and she needs to stay at home to prepare for the birth wholeheartedly. Therefore, the work of the Civil Affairs Bureau is now done by Zhang Weifang alone.
During this period, Lu Shi fully utilized his interpersonal relationships and social skills and successfully recommended several outstanding single young people to Zhang Weifang.
Zhang Weifang's red line business also became prosperous. With her systematic red line map, she introduced suitable partners to everyone.
As time went by, her reputation gradually spread. Not only did people nearby trust her, but people from even farther places also heard of her good name.
Gradually, many neighbors came to her and asked her to help with matchmaking. For a time, Zhang Weifang became a highly-regarded figure in the alley and became famous.
People come to visit her every day, hoping to find their ideal partner with the help of her insight and eloquence.
And she lived up to everyone's expectations. With her own matchmaker system, she successfully facilitated one happy marriage after another.
Her name seemed to be a guarantee; any marriage she introduced would usually have a happy ending.
As a result, her position in the alley became more and more stable, and people's admiration for her was beyond words.
Because Lu Shi helped introduce partners to many people in the transport team, his reputation in the transport team became better and better.
Captain Wang was becoming more and more satisfied with Lu Shi. He even wanted to recruit him, but Lu Shi's resume was not good enough, so he could only be a temporary worker for the time being.
Being a temporary worker is not bad. You don’t have to go out to drive a car. You just need to help clean the big trucks every day and sometimes help the repairman pass tools. Although the salary is not high, it is convenient for you to take care of your family. Lu Shi is very satisfied.
That day, as soon as Lu Shi arrived at work, Captain Wang called him over:
"Xiao Lu, you did a great job. I'm going on a long trip tomorrow. You're good at it, so come along!"
Lu Shi was a little hesitant. Zhang Weifang was pregnant and he was worried about her being alone at home, but Captain Wang had been very kind to him, so he couldn't refuse directly.
"Captain Wang, how long will you be gone? My wife is pregnant and she's home alone. I'm worried."
Captain Wang laughed heartily, holding a cigarette in his mouth:
"You kid, I didn't realize you're still a henpecked husband. Don't worry, you'll be gone for ten days at most. It won't cause any trouble."
Lu Shi ignored his teasing and kept a cold face:
"I understand, Captain Wang."
When he returned home in the evening, Lu Shi immediately told Zhang Weifang that he was going out.
Zhang Weifang stared at Lu Shi's frowning face with interest, and a faint smile emerged in his heart.
Since the two got married, Lu Shi has consciously shouldered the responsibility of being the breadwinner of the family and has been worried about all the big and small matters at home.
However, in Zhang Weifang's view, these worries are actually somewhat unnecessary. After all, she has been an adult for a long time, so how could she not be able to cope with the various difficulties in life?
Zhang Weifang hugged Lu Shi's arm and comforted him softly:
"Okay, don't worry, my belly is only three months old now, I can take care of myself. Besides, won't you be back soon?"
Lu Shi kissed Zhang Weifang on the cheek, then made the final arrangements:
"Well, I'll steam some more buns and make some dumplings. You can put them in the space and eat them whenever you're hungry."
Finally, Lu Shi also earnestly told Hu Zi to take good care of his mother.
