Chapter 742: Unexpected Episode
Everyone thought that the wedding could be held smoothly in half a month, and there would be no chance of any incidents in between. However, just because of all the thoughts in my mind, I really got into trouble.
Although it's not a big deal, it's still annoying at this critical moment.
As agreed, at noon that day, Bai Jincheng accompanied his mother Ouyang Wanjun to his uncle Ouyang Fanmin's house. Oh, it’s Ouyang Miaomiao’s father. When I entered the house, I found that there were already guests inside.
Just from their appearance, one could tell that they were mother and daughter. .c
Judging from their familiar looks, I can be sure that I must have seen them before. I searched my memory for a long time before I could barely find the identity information.
It turned out that the older one was my aunt Zuo Xiuying’s cousin Zuo Xiuling. If I remember correctly, she should be the daughter of her father’s younger brother.
In fact, these relatives should have a good relationship with each other, but the Zuo family completely separated when the eldest son just got married, or it would be more appropriate to describe it as being separated.
Since then, the brothers have basically had no contact. In order to subsidize their youngest son, the two elders took their private money and lived with the father of the woman in front of them, regardless of whether the eldest son would be criticized by outsiders.
Although the words are a bit confusing, the general meaning is nothing more than the series of consequences caused by partiality and selfishness.
Zuo Xiuling’s husband is called Changshan. They were colleagues when her uncle was an ordinary researcher at the institute. To be precise, they entered the hospital in the same batch.
There were no major conflicts between the cousins. On the contrary, because there were only two girls in this generation, even though they knew that their parents were not getting along when they were in school, one of them didn't take it seriously at all, while the other's family was the beneficiary. Of course, there was no such thing as seven girls being dissatisfied and eight girls being angry.
Although I could deliberately avoid going to the same school for elementary and junior high school, there was really no way I could do that for high school. There were not many girls in the class, and gradually they became close friends.
After Ouyang Fanmin and Changshan married the two people respectively, they both felt that the other was half a relative, and they took care of each other for a long time afterwards in the research institute.
The incident happened more than ten years ago when the activity just started to show signs. The latter showed no signs at all and did not say a word at all. He was still discussing the materials of the project at hand with Bai Jincheng's uncle the day before, and he was not seen at work the next day.
Other colleagues said that Changshan had handed in his resignation letter to the director six or seven days ago. It happened that the institute was short of staff, and the boss had tried to retain him, but Changshan had no intention of changing his mind.
I never heard any news about this family after that. It was as if they had suddenly disappeared from my side.
The couple did not take it seriously, but not long after, universities across the country began to suspend classes one after another, and Beijing was the hardest hit area. Red Guards appeared in various places, and many people were implicated.
Too many colleagues and leaders around me were suddenly taken away in front of me. Only then did they realize that their cousin and her family might have received the news and fled.
Bai Jincheng really didn't understand why the mother and daughter suddenly appeared here again when their relationship was like this. The atmosphere at the moment was obviously not very good. It was none of his business anyway, so he prepared to go up and tell the little girl what she had told him to tell his uncle, and then retreat.
There are still many details of the wedding that need to be taken care of personally, but there is not much time to waste.
However, before he could open his mouth, he was keenly aware of a pair of eyes staring at him, which was difficult to ignore. He turned his head and met Chang Renmiao's eyes.
Ouyang Wanjun also noticed something different. Her sister-in-law had just said she was going to the kitchen to get some water and was not there. She looked at her son and had to step in to change the subject.
"Haha, this is your Xiao Miao, right? She was still a little girl when we last met, but now she is getting more and more beautiful. According to her age, she should be married, right? Does her husband work in Beijing? Will you stay here after you come back this time?"
Bai Jincheng couldn't help but give a thumbs up to his mother. Looking at this series of questions, it was obvious that as soon as the words fell, the gaze from him was completely withdrawn. xь.
However, it was too early for him to be happy. He only heard the girl opposite him showing a shy expression, lowering her head slightly and blushing slightly, saying: "Aunt Ouyang, what are you talking about? I don't even have a partner. I met Brother Cheng at my aunt's house that year. Didn't you say that I would be your daughter-in-law?"
Quiet, the house is super quiet.
Zuo Xiuying, who had just come out of the kitchen, happened to hear the end of it and finally realized the main purpose of her cousin and her daughter coming here today.
Her family had arranged to meet her sister-in-law long in advance for today, which was why she declined when a colleague at work asked her out. And if Zuo Xiuling wanted to find out, it was easy to do because of Changshan's relationship.
No wonder the two sides couldn't find a topic to talk about. Even though the host clearly wanted to send the guest away, the guest still sat there steadily, not moving at all even while drinking tea.
My eldest nephew will be getting married in half a month. The bride will be a little girl from the Jun family. The whole family is extremely satisfied. How could we allow these two women to interfere?
Seeing that it was difficult to respond to the sister-in-law's next words, her face obviously darkened, so she simply stepped forward and changed the subject: "Oh, these were all jokes more than ten years ago. Besides, these were not proposed by Wanyun. If I remember correctly, it was you, Xiuling, who expressed your wishes openly and secretly. But she didn't agree at all, and said that it was up to the child to like when he grows up. How come your words now mean that it was said by someone else?"
Zuo Xiuling never expected that her cousin would sabotage her at this time and put the original words on the table.
In fact, the idea of finding a way to get in touch with Bai Jincheng was also proposed by his daughter when he was at home.
My daughter kept talking about the benefits of marrying into the Guwu Bai family, and she always emphasized how special the Guwu domain was. As if she was brainwashed, she couldn't help but start fantasizing about living a smooth life in the future relying on her in-laws.
The previous words made her expression change again and again.
Suddenly, except for Chang Renmiao who had said hello to Ouyang Wanjun, he said the second sentence after the Bai family mother and son entered the room: "When my mother talked about getting married, Brother Cheng didn't object, right?"
Good job, hit the nail on the head.
It was imperative to make things clear today. Zuo Xiuying felt that she couldn't let this matter create a rift between her family and her sister-in-law, so she simply said, "Let's not talk about any affection. The little bit of affection we had was completely severed when you and your family left the country without leaving a single word. Besides, if I remember correctly, the Chang family had been back in Beijing for three months. The first time they came to our house, they asked us to help them find a place to live. The second time they came was today.
I guess you don't know the situation of Jincheng. He is going to get married in half a month, and the girl is a girl from the Jun family.
If you don’t know, you can go out and ask around before figuring out your own plan. ”..
Bai Jincheng, who had recovered his strength, didn't think that the mother and daughter were acting on impulse. What they mentioned about what happened more than ten years ago came from the bottom of their hearts.
I can feel that when the other person says these words, his eyes inevitably flicker around. He saw through the conspiracy clearly.
If we let them leave today, who knows what kind of gossip will arise later.
Whether the little girl believes it or not, she will definitely find it annoying.
While we are all here now, and there is a photo stone in the space ring, if we really take some useful photos, we can transcribe them with a recorder and keep some evidence.
Suddenly, Bai Jincheng's expressionless face softened. He hung the item around his neck while no one was paying attention and took the initiative to say, "If there was anything about our family that caused you and Comrade Chang to have a misunderstanding, I would like to apologize first."
The three words "Comrade Chang" are used very spiritually.
After saying this, he naturally picked up the teapot on the table and filled the cups in front of Zuo Xiuling and Chang Renmiao. In everyone's blind spot, he quickly mixed a mantra pill into the latter's teacup.
