A 1970s mom raises a cute baby, and a crazy boss spoils her

xujiatun

The Xu family is having a lively wedding.

Early in the morning, a large group of old ladies came to help, gossiping about other people while they were working.

Although Lin Xiaomeng was resting these days, she was not idle. She had already paid someone to enclose the two rooms belonging to her family and re-planned a small courtyard.

Since it is frozen now and we cannot work, we will build a fence around the area first and then rebuild the wall next spring.

She didn't want to wait any longer and wanted to draw a clear line with the Xu family.

Since the kitchen and toilet were inconvenient, she asked someone to temporarily build two thatched sheds and put a stove in them to make do with it, and then retouch them next year.

He fenced off the yard, sealed the door to the yard on this side, opened two new doors, and lived his own life in peace and contentment.

Family disgrace should not be made public. No matter how dissatisfied Xu Huaizhi was, he came back today to support his brother.

As for how sincere he is, only he himself knows.

Lin Xiaomeng took the opportunity of her confinement period to stay at home and refused to go out. She also locked Dacheng at home and did not allow him to go out. She did not want to get involved in Xu Huaiyu's affairs, for fear of being implicated by this unlucky guy.

The old ladies in the village were all guessing openly and secretly what was going on in the Xu family. How could such a strong old lady like Liu Guifang be willing to agree to the division of the family? And how come Lin Xiaomeng had a miscarriage after finally getting pregnant?

In short, everyone gave full play to their imagination and made up a big drama in their minds, saying all kinds of things.

On the wedding day, Xu Huaiyu should have dressed up happily to pick up his bride, but now he was lying on the bed, looking listless.

There was rust on the clamp, and the barefoot doctor simply cleaned it without thoroughly sterilizing it. The dirt inside caused his wound to become inflamed and fester, and his ankle swelled up like a big bun.

The continuous high fever made him exhausted and he hadn't had a good rest for two days.

Yesterday Xu Mingshan went to the commune to find a doctor who gave him two bottles of anti-inflammatory water. Today he feels obviously better.

Liu Guifang brought in new clothes and helped him change.

"Mom, who did you arrange to pick up Lijun? My eldest brother?" He had been in a daze these past two days and had no time to take care of these trivial matters at home.

Liu Guifang looked up and said, "She's already grown up, does she still need to be picked up? I asked someone to tell the Yan family to find a way to get here."

Xu Huaiyu sat up with a start: "What? Mom, what are you doing! If you do this, how can people marry their daughters to you? Isn't this a disgrace to others?"

Although Xu Huaiyu was a carefree person, he still knew that it was inappropriate to let the bride find a way to come to his house on her own on the wedding day.

"What are you yelling about! Isn't it because you can't go because your leg is injured? Who told you to take the responsibility? Do you think you are the second in command?

Xu Huaiyu, I tell you, if you don’t give your new bride a warning when she comes to your house, you won’t be able to control her in the future.”

"What if she doesn't come?" Xu Huaiyu felt that his mother's words made some sense and said weakly.

"How dare she! She has accepted the betrothal gift from our Xu family and got the marriage certificate. Who else can she marry if she doesn't come?" Liu Guifang said firmly.

"Okay then! Mom, thank you for your hard work today." Xu Huaiyu knew how to judge the situation best and would not argue with his mother at this time.

"Got it, don't worry, I'll make sure your wedding is a grand one.

You stay here for a while, and when the bride comes, I will ask your elder brother to carry you out."

-

Yan Lijun was placed about a mile outside Xuhuaitun.

The snow in the village was very thick unlike the main road, and the bicycle could only be pushed in, so the person who sent her there dropped her off and left first. The main reason was that he was afraid of being beaten by the Xu family, because he knew that the Yan family had replaced the original with the fake one.

Poor Yan Lijun was walking alone in the snow carrying a suitcase.

On the one hand, I feel that this road is too long and very tiring to walk on.

On the other hand, she hopes that this road will never end and she won't have to face the questioning and abuse from Xu's family.

No matter how long the road is, it will eventually come to an end, and she finally arrived at Xujiatun.

After being blown by the cold wind and walking for such a long time, her carefully groomed face was blown into a mess and her hair was out of shape.

When she was walking in the village, people passing by pointed at her and talked about her, but she just kept her head down and walked, turning a deaf ear to them, for fear of hearing those harsh words.

"Why haven't you seen this girl before?"

"She's wearing such bright colors and carrying a suitcase. Could she be the city-dwelling wife of the third son of the Xu family?"

"No way. Liu Guifang said they gave a betrothal gift of three gongs and one gong. The girl came here alone, without even a bridesmaid. That can't be the case."

...

It was not until everyone saw her walking towards the large blue brick and tile house of Old Xu's family that they were sure that this was Xu Huaiyu's new daughter-in-law, and they immediately followed her to watch the fun.

What's going on? Isn't it said that the woman is in good condition? Why does she look so miserable?

It was almost eleven o'clock. Liu Guifang stood at the door, eagerly waiting, but she never saw the wedding procession. She was worried that what her son said might be true and the Yan family would be angry.

When she was extremely anxious, she finally saw a red shadow coming towards her in the distance. When she looked closely, she realized it was none other than Yan Lijun.

Liu Guifang thought to herself that Amitabha Buddha had finally come, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to get out of the situation today.

Because she was in a hurry, she ignored the detail that Yan Lijun came alone, thinking that the people who were escorting the bride were still behind and Yan Lijun arrived first.

Quickly ask Xu Huaizhi to prepare to set off firecrackers, because the bride is coming.

Amid the sounds of explosions, Yan Lijun came into everyone's sight.

She actually looks good, but because of all the bad things that happened, her eyes are red and swollen from crying recently, and her makeup is sloppy, so she looks very shabby.

The people in the yard who wanted to see a city bride were somewhat disappointed. Is this a city girl? Nothing special.

The sharp-eyed woman saw the scarlet suitcase she was carrying and said enviously, "This suitcase is really beautiful."

"Yeah, there must be several wives in our village who have accompanied suitcases before, right? City people are just different."

...

Everyone's discussion greatly satisfied Liu Guifang's vanity. She tilted her neck and said, "That's right. My third son's wife can't be bad. There are good things to come! Three turns and one ring. You haven't seen it before, right?"

"Oh, three turns and one ring? This is the first of its kind in our village. Most people's marriages only have one or two and it's a big deal. You actually matched them all. You're worthy of being the village chief's family getting married, and you did it openly." Yang Fengmei, who had been at odds with Gu Qinghuan before, flattered him.

"That's right, open and bright."

Most people praised Liu Guifang for arranging the wedding well and in an authentic way.

Only the captain's wife, Chen Fengqin, sneered, but did not say anything.

Her father-in-law was a respected elder in the village. He had witnessed the division of the Xu family and told them the details of the old Xu family after returning.

The Xu family is really unkind, especially the woman Liu Guifang. Even a tiger will not eat its own cubs. The second son went through life and death to earn money, but he didn't get a penny. When she saw someone going crazy, she threw him away and spent a hundred yuan to get rid of him.

The third brother was lazy and gluttonous, but Liu Guifang gave him a room and money, and made such a big fuss about his wedding. She was really asking for trouble.

Chen Fengqin also has two sons, one older and the other younger. To be honest, it is impossible to treat them equally, but she will definitely not be like Liu Guifang, treating one son as grass and the other as a treasure.
