All the memories Xu Yan received about Xu's father and mother came from the original owner. In the original owner's memory, there were only various scenes of her parents being kind to her, and there was no impression of a table falling apart with a palm.

"Let's go to the educated youth site now," Chen Lihua said with a cold face, and she looked like she could rush out and beat Han Xiaoyu to pieces in the next second.

"Yes," Xu Cangsong's expression was also very unhappy, "It was their family who took the initiative to come to our house to propose marriage, but this is what happened."

Seeing that the two of them were about to leave the main room, Xu Yan quickly gave Xie Zhuo a look, and the two of them went up to stop them.

"Dad, Mom," Xu Yan stood in front of them.

"Are you still thinking about him?"

Chen Lihua's brows were tightly knitted together, as if if Xu Yan dared to admit it, she would disregard family ties and slap Xu Yan in the face.

"No, no," Xu Yan turned his head quickly and glanced at Xie Zhuo as she asked. He didn't know what he was feeling guilty about. "How could I miss him? I'm not a bootlicker!"

"What dog?" Xu Yan spoke the second half of the sentence vaguely and Chen Lihua didn't hear it clearly.

"He's nothing but a dog," Xu Yan pulled Chen Lihua into the house, "I'm already married, how could I still be thinking about him?"

Only then did Chen Lihua remember to look at Xie Zhuo's expression.

Xie Zhuo was very calm.

He even lowered his eyelids silently when she looked at him, looking a little aggrieved.

Xu Yan: “…”

She had forgotten that when she first met Xie Zhuo formally, this guy put on a show in front of everyone.

You know what, he really acted like he was injured.

I just don't know if her parents will...

"Look at me, I'm just talking nonsense," Chen Lihua looked at Xie Zhuo's expression and said awkwardly, "Now that you're married, you must be living a stable life. It's impossible for you to still be thinking about someone else."

Xu Cangsong also coughed dryly.

The four of them stood at the door for a while in a semi-awkward manner, then turned around and sat back in their chairs.

However, the table placed between them was now spread out on the ground, and Dabao and Xiaobao were squatting there head to head, not knowing what they were studying.

It is difficult for Chen Lihua and Xu Cangsong to ignore it.

"Dad, Mom," Xie Zhuo broke the silence and called Chen Lihua and Xu Cangsong.

They both looked up at Xie Zhuo at the same time.

"I know you are very angry, and I also know that you really want to..." Xie Zhuo turned his eyes to look at Xu Yan and continued: "Seek justice for Yanyan."

Words?

Xu Yan suddenly turned his head and stared at Xie Zhuo.

Xie Zhuo remained calm and continued, "But we can't just go like this. The villagers are not very observant. If everyone knew that Yanyan was engaged before, I'm afraid it would cause gossip again."

Chen Lihua and Xu Cangsong didn't speak.

The two of them were just too angry and couldn't suppress their anger, so they thought of going directly to Han Xiaoyu and the group of educated youth at the educated youth site to settle the score.

Now that I think about it calmly, I really can't just go find him like this. Even if I do, I can't mention the fact that Yanyan and Han Xiaoyu were engaged.

After all, they felt better after the quarrel, but Yanyan still had to continue living here, and he couldn't leave a mess for her.

"We must seek justice," Xie Zhuo said, "but there is no rush. We still need to consider this matter in the long run."

Chen Lihua and Xu Cangsong nodded at the same time.

"Well, I think you two elders haven't eaten yet," Xie Zhuo suggested, "How about we eat first, take a rest after dinner, and then go over?"

Maybe it was because Xie Zhuo’s tone of voice was soothing, but Chen Lihua and Xu Cangsong nodded at the same time again.

Then, Xie Zhuo stood up, picked up Dabao and Xiaobao and put them aside, then bent down to tidy up the table that had been through the "wind and rain". As he walked out with the children in his arms, he reminded Xu Yan to stay and talk to the two elders while he went to cook.

As he spoke, he went to the kitchen.

When Dabao and Xiaobao saw that their "toys" were moved away, they couldn't stay in the house and ran out to play.

Suddenly, Xu Yan and his family of three were the only ones left in the main room.

Chen Lihua glanced outside the door a few times, then turned back to look at Xu Yan.

Xu Yan felt embarrassed by her gaze and coughed lightly, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I've always thought you had a bad eye," Chen Lihua said. "You don't know how to pick people. There are so many good guys in the compound, but you had to pick someone who is good at nothing."

Xu Yan: “…”

"This one looks okay this time," said Chen Lihua.

After saying that, seeing that Xu Yan didn't say anything, he asked again: "Has he always been the one cooking since you got married?"

"We just got married yesterday," Xu Yan came back to his senses.

"So he cooked all the meals from yesterday to today?" Chen Lihua asked in a different way.

"Yeah," Xu Yan nodded, "He was afraid that I would burn the kitchen, so he kept doing it himself."

Chen Lihua looked at Xu Cangsong, then turned her gaze to Xu Yan, "In this respect, he is better than your father. If it were your father, he would not even go into the kitchen even if he set the whole house on fire, let alone the kitchen."

"Hey," Xu Cangsong didn't expect that he would be implicated without saying a word, "They are talking about the child, why are you bringing me into this?"

Chen Lihua continued to ask, "We also asked around on the way here, and everyone said that he gave a betrothal gift according to the custom in the city, and also bought three turns and one ring?"

"Yeah," Xu Yan nodded, then shook his head halfway through nodding, "He didn't buy a sewing machine. I don't know how to use it, so I didn't ask him to buy one."

Chen Lihua wanted to say, silly girl, if you don’t know how to do it now, won’t you know how to do it in the future?

But when I thought about how I had taught her to knit a sweater and she hadn't learned it after teaching her for several months, I didn't say much.

"Then," Chen Lihua thought of Dabao and Xiaobao, "after he buys these things..."

Chen Lihua wanted to ask Xie Zhuo how much wealth he had and whether he was starving.

In this era, most people don't have much money, let alone someone like Xie Zhuo. There are only a few people left in his family, and two hungry kids waiting for him to raise. It is estimated that after giving the bride price and buying a few big items, he will be starving.

That's what's going on.

When the time comes to pay back the money in the future, won’t her daughter still have to pay it back together?

Not only did Chen Lihua and Xu Cangsong not think about taking the bride price for themselves, they also wanted to give the couple a little more subsidy.

Life in the countryside was hard, and they didn't want to let their daughter, whom they had loved for nearly twenty years, suffer.

Ugh!

Although Chen Lihua was not generally opposed to Xie Zhuo, she felt uncomfortable when she thought that Xu Yan would have to settle down in the countryside and live a hard life in the future.

I wanted to rush to the educated youth point and give Han Xiaoyu a few slaps.

If it weren't for that boy, would their good daughter have come to this remote place?

Xu Yan didn't know that Chen Lihua had thought so much in just a few words, and he secretly hooked his finger at the two of them.

Chen Lihua and Xu Cangsong moved closer to her.

"He is very rich. His parents and brother left him a lot of money." Xu Yan did not mention that Xie Zhuo repaired watches and radios, nor did he mention that they sold hundred-year-old wild ginseng. He only vaguely said that it was left by his parents.

The fewer people who know about those things, the better.
