After the wedding: I’m not stupid anymore, I’ll beat up anyone who messes with me!

"Grandma, I miss my mother. I miss Little Pomelo and Little Lemon." Maizi sat on a small stool, watching Zhao's mother mending clothes, and muttered.

Zhao's mother glanced at Maizi, who was the youngest in the family and had not yet gone to school.

"When the time comes, I'll take you to Beijing."

Maizi nodded. It was his grandmother who took him to Beijing before.

Mrs. Zhao was also mending clothes. Among her three sons, Dazhuang is now more refined, but Erzhuang and Xiaozhuang still take a lot of effort in mending clothes and pants.

"Mom, it's getting cold today. Is it snowing in Jing City?"

At this time last year, my mother-in-law went to Beijing.

If it weren't for grandma, mother-in-law would have gone to Beijing with Nini and the others before school started.

"The first snow starts to fall in October, the moderate snow falls in November, and the heavy snow falls in this month. In November, we start wearing sweaters and cotton-padded jackets. It's not too cold when there's no wind, but when the wind blows, it's extremely cold. I have to use chilblain cream to wipe my hands and face."

Mrs. Zhao had heard her family mention Beijing, and she also wanted to go there to take a look.

"We dug up a batch of lotus roots and sent them to the city, and we also caught a batch of fish."

As for grapefruit, we have to wait until before the Chinese New Year.

Mother Zhao came to Grandma Zhao's house and repeated the previous actions, cleaning up, washing clothes, pouring water, and chatting with her.

Grandma Zhao has lost a lot of weight now, and the painkillers are no longer effective, but Uncle Zhao and the others still give her food and water, but she can't eat anything else.

"Little sister, Mom is like this, I'm afraid she won't live for many days."

It's hard to eat.

How many days left to live?

How could Zhao's mother not see it?

"Brother, you won't let my third brother and the others come back, right?"

Uncle Zhao shook his head. "They still have to go to school. They will be back during winter break."

He was just feeling emotional.

The eldest sister came to serve my mother, full of complaints.

My younger sister is different. She doesn’t mind the smell and helps clean up and take care of things.

"I mean, should we start preparing for Mom's funeral?"

Uncle Zhao uttered these words with difficulty.

Prepare in advance.

In the past few months, my mother's temper has become worse and worse. She doesn't scold them, but she scolds my younger sister.

"Brother, please discuss this with the second brother. I don't know anything about this either."

After all, when she married into the Zhao family, her husband's grandparents had passed away.

She hadn't done any of that.

When her father died, there was a famine and there was almost no way to take care of his funeral.

"Okay, I'll discuss it with the second brother."

Now that I don’t have to go to work, I just stay at home.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

Zhao Jianping didn't go to his grandma's room to see how she was doing, but every time his mother came to his grandma's house, he could clearly see that she was not in a good mood.

"Your grandma, I'm afraid she'll only be here for a few days."

what?

So fast?

Indeed.

Zhao Jianping sent his mother to see Grandma Zhao again. Grandma Zhao could hardly even drink water now.

"Jianping, go home and call your dad."

What do you mean?

Is this really necessary?

"Uncle, I'll be back soon."

Zhao Jianping rode his bicycle and rushed home.

When Zhao's mother entered the room, she saw Grandma Zhao lying on the bed. Her lips were moving but she didn't have the strength to speak.

When Captain Zhao arrived, Aunt Zhao, Uncle Zhao, Second Aunt Zhao, Second Uncle Zhao, and Uncle Zhao, a group of people gathered in Grandma Zhao's room.

So many people surrounded and guarded.

Grandma Zhao passed away around five o'clock in the afternoon.

The family immediately began to prepare for the funeral.

In this era, food was distributed, and even at this time, it was done simply.

Even so, Zhao Sansao and Zhao Jianan came back to see Grandma Zhao off for the last time.

After taking care of Grandma Zhao's funeral, Mother Zhao collapsed.

"Uncle Shi, how is my mother?" Mrs. Zhao asked Doctor Shi.

Doctor Shi sighed, "He has a slight fever. Take the medicine and rest for a few days."

He heard that his sister-in-law's mother had passed away.

"That's good."

Mrs. Zhao was so frightened that she even scared herself.

My mother-in-law looks like this because of my grandmother.

Although grandma was not very kind to mother-in-law, when a person dies, it is like a light going out, and everything is blown away by the wind.

"Aunt..."

Mrs. Zhao looked at Maizi and said, "You stay with your grandma. I'll go boil some more hot water."

Drink more hot water to eliminate sweat.

My mother-in-law is usually in good health. This time she fell ill because of my grandmother's death, which was a huge blow to her.

Zhao's mother was sick for several days because of a fever and a cold.

On the seventh day after Grandma Zhao's death, Captain Zhao took Zhao's mother there again, and only then did Zhao's mother get better.

"What's this, little sister?"

When Uncle Zhao saw Mother Zhao, he found that she had lost weight.

"Cold."

It turned out to be the case.

"Wife, do you want to go to Beijing? I don't know if my parents can take good care of themselves with the children."

Captain Zhao didn't want his mother to be immersed in the death of his mother-in-law.

This matter is over.

"I'll go to Beijing after the New Year. I won't go now."

Although that courtyard house was the home of her daughter and son-in-law, she was in mourning and it was not convenient for her to go there. She had to wait at least until after the New Year.

"Okay then! Plant more vegetables, and when you go after the New Year, bring some fresh vegetables to your parents." Captain Zhao didn't want his wife to be sad anymore, so he found something for her to do to relieve her sadness.

"That's fine. We can buy radishes and cabbages in Beijing, so we can grow some other vegetables."

As long as my daughter-in-law is no longer worried.

"Brother Bei, Brother Feng is getting married. I heard his partner is from Hong Kong."

From Hong Kong?

Brother Feng is getting married?

This is a pretty quick move.

"What about you, kid? When are you getting married?"

"I'm still early. By the way, Brother Bei, do you remember Zhang Chong?"

Zhang Chong?

Huo Shaobei thought for a long time before he remembered this person.

"What's up with him?"

The visitor immediately spoke up, "The last time I saw Zhang Chong, he was riding a motorcycle."

A motorcycle is not cheap.

How can I not be surprised that Zhang Chong actually drives a motorcycle?

"I heard they brought it back from Guangzhou. I also heard that they've opened up and started doing business there."

A motorcycle is more expensive than a bicycle, and most importantly, it is difficult to get.

Huo Shaobei remembered that when he brought Nini back to Beijing, he met Zhang Chong.

"What about you? What are your plans?" This man was Huo Shaobei's friend in the military compound. He failed the college entrance examination and now works in a unit as a small clerk.

"My mom keeps nagging me at home, asking when I'm going to get married, and she's bringing you up again."

Huo Shaobei never thought that he was a typical person in the military compound before, but he never expected that one day he would become someone else's child.

"You're not young anymore, why don't you find a partner?"

The man was very helpless, "Is it because I don't want to find one? It's because the lesbian doesn't like me."
