I’m afraid that Brother-in-law Zhang didn’t expect that his parents and brothers would beat his wife, right?

Zhao Yunshu couldn't be sure about this either.

If Brother-in-law Zhang is the same as his parents and brothers, if that is the case, can Sister Lihua continue to live like this?

After hearing what Zhao Yunshu said, Xiao Zhuang didn't know what to do.

"Why did Aunt Lihua's in-laws beat her?"

Why fight?

Zhao Yunshu looked at Xiao Zhuang and said, "Xiao Zhuang, you ate my candy. Can I hit you?"

This sentence made Xiao Zhuang confused, "Aunt, why did you hit me?"

"I need a reason to hit someone, but I also don't need a reason. I just want to hit you."

Xiao Zhuang couldn't figure it out for a moment and looked at Zhao Yunshu in confusion.

No need for a reason to hit someone?

What this means is that Aunt Lihua’s in-laws don’t need a reason to beat her, they can just beat her whenever they want?

As Zhao Yunshu was walking, he saw someone who looked familiar, but he couldn't guess who it was.

"Aunt, that's Osmanthus fragrans."

Osmanthus fragrans?

Zhao Yunshu was shocked. It had only been such a short time since he last saw Guihua, and she had become like this?

"I heard from my grandmother that her in-laws tortured her."

Guihua also saw Zhao Yunshu.

It's only been a few months since they last met, and they seem to have become two different people.

The other person had a rosy complexion. Although he was wearing a cotton jacket, there was not a single patch on the jacket or trousers. He even had a pair of cotton shoes on his feet.

As for herself, even after the separation, her belly is noticeable. Although her nutrition is better than before the separation, she now dares not look in the mirror.

She also didn't expect that pregnancy would change her completely.

Guihua felt ashamed and did not stay, but left with her head down.

Zhao Yunshu withdrew her gaze, and she looked more haggard than a woman in her thirties.

Will pregnancy bring such big changes?

The nutrition is still not enough.

The child absorbs nutrients from the mother.

"Aunt..."

Zhao Yunshu looked at Xiao Zhuang and said, "Let's continue shopping."

"Has the brigade sold its grapefruits?"

Xiao Zhuang nodded, "Yes, my dad drove a tractor to the supply and marketing cooperative in the county town."

The commune supply and marketing cooperative was too small, and the brigade had difficulty digesting so many grapefruits.

"Where's the fish?"

Xiao Zhuang also knew this and said, "They also took it to the county supply and marketing cooperative to sell it."

I also knew that they were being taken to the county supply and marketing cooperative, not the commune supply and marketing cooperative.

"When will the pig be slaughtered?"

When will the pigs be slaughtered?

Xiao Zhuang thought for a moment and said, "Grandpa said it would only take a few days. Oh, and those educated youths still need to ask for leave to go back."

Xiaozhuang, you know too much.

How come you, a little kid, know so much?

"Xiao Zhuang, after spring comes, let's go study, right?"

What a waste of time.

I should send you to school when school starts in September.

"Nini, come and sit down, come and sit down." Before we knew it, we had walked to the big tree at the entrance of the village, where many aunts and grandmothers were sitting.

Listen to gossip.

No, these days it’s all about her gossip.

"Nini, is Beijing a big city?"

Some of these elderly women have never been to the county town.

I am really curious and looking forward to Beijing.

Why didn’t we go directly to the Zhao family? It was because there was Grandma Zhao.

No one in the village dared to provoke Grandma Zhao.

"It's huge, more than ten times the size of our county."

county seat?

As big as ten county towns?

More than that?

How big is it then?

"Is it cold?"

Zhao Yunshu looked at these curious grandmothers and aunts.

"It's very cold in Beijing. There's snow all over the ground, on the trees, on the houses. It snows so often that it can be covered in snow overnight."

There's snow all over the ground?

So cold?

"How do I get out?"

How to get out?

Wear something thicker before going out.

I dare not go out because I am wearing too little.

Can't bear it.

"You have to wear a hat, gloves, and a mask, otherwise you won't dare go out."

"Nani, do you want to take a picture?"

"Taking pictures. My little Bei took me to go ice skating and build a snowman..."

They had little experience, but now they learned some information about the situation in Beijing from Zhao Yunshu.

"There is also the largest flag-raising square in Beijing, which can accommodate one million people."

what?

One million people?

How many people are there in their team?

Can a square in Beijing accommodate so many people?

It's incredible.

"So big?"

"There is also a large imperial palace in Jing City, which is where the emperor lived in the past."

Palace?

emperor?

This is too far away from them.

"Nini, have you gone in to take a look?"

Have you seen it?

"Nowadays, several palaces are open to the public, but many palaces are still closed."

"Nini, did those ladies really live in the palace?"

Zhao Yunshu nodded, "Of course the empresses have lived here, and it has a history of hundreds of years."

"The Forbidden City, also known as the Purple Forbidden City, was built by Emperor Zhu Di of the Ming Dynasty in response to the relocation of the capital to Beijing. It was built on the foundations of the Yuan Dynasty's Dadu Imperial Palace, and hundreds of thousands of craftsmen and soldiers were recruited to contribute to its construction."

Who was Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty?

How would these aunts know this?

I'm just surprised, after so many years, is it still habitable?

"Nini, it's been hundreds of years and it hasn't collapsed yet?"

Their houses, especially the mud houses, have become somewhat old after just a few decades.

Why has the palace remained intact after all these years?

"Of course it needs to be inspected every year. The wood used at that time was all high-quality wood, which was not infested with insects and was very expensive. After all, this is where the emperor lived."

Of course, the place where the emperor lives cannot be the same as where ordinary people live.

"anything else?"

Zhao Yunshu thought for a moment, "There are buildings, not two or three stories, but five or six stories, or even higher."

Building?

Five or six floors?

They are all one layer.

There are actually five- or six-story houses in Beijing?

"Nini, can you tell me about other places in Jing City?"

"Yes, you are telling us so that we can broaden our horizons."

gain knowledge?

"There are not only supply and marketing cooperatives, but also department stores, overseas Chinese remittance stores, and state guesthouses for receiving foreign guests."

"What is the Overseas Remittance Store?"

"It's a store that sells some foreign goods, some expensive goods."

They seem to be really ignorant.

"What kind of place is the State Guest House?"

"It's about receiving important people and foreign guests, envoys to our country, and foreigners who cooperate with our country."

Foreigner?

Can I still see foreigners?

“What do foreigners look like?”

Zhao Yunshu looked at them, all of them looked curious.

"They look the same as us, except for their hair. Some have red, brown, blonde, white, and black hair."

"Not black?"

Zhao Yunshu nodded. "Foreigners are very different from us. You can tell at first sight that person is a foreigner."

Is it easy to read books?

"Raising the national flag, do you know?"

Raising the flag?

I've heard of it, but never seen it.
