"Feihu, I saw this bicycle at the commune. I want to ride it. You watch from the side."

Xiao Qinghua's eldest son, Xiao Dalong, is now 10 years old. After finishing his canned fruit, he went out of the house and saw three bicycles parked on the dam.

Zhang Zhongli's bicycle was a classic 28-inch model, which Xiao Dalong immediately took a liking to and ran over to.

"Great."

Xiao Feihu clapped.

"Brother, you're amazing!"

Xiao Qingniu jumped up and shouted.

Then Xiao Dalong grabbed the two handlebars with great enthusiasm. It was his first time handling a bicycle, and based on his previous memories, he grabbed the handlebars with both hands like an adult and then pushed the bicycle with all his might.

The bicycle's support was not engaged, and as Xiao Dalong pushed forward with force, the bicycle suddenly tilted to one side.

Xiao Dalong lost his grip, and the bicycle fell to the ground with a thud.

Zhang Zhongli rushed out of the main room at that moment and saw his bicycle lying on the ground.

"Da Long, what are you doing!"

Xiao Qingguo rushed out of the main room and saw his nephew holding up the bicycle. He immediately understood that the bastard had knocked the bicycle over.

"Second brother, why are you shouting so loudly? Are you trying to scare my son to death?"

"It's just a bicycle. It won't break if it falls over. If you scare my son to death, I'll never forgive you."

Xiao Qinghua's wife also came out. Upon hearing Xiao Qingguo's words, she immediately shouted angrily, fiercely defending her eldest son.

"Second brother, that's not fair of you. Anyway, when you get married, their family will give you two bicycles as dowry. Those two bicycles will belong to our family. What does it matter if they get damaged?"

Xiao Qinghua chimed in at this moment.

Yang Lijuan also came out at this time, and she echoed, "Qingguo, Dalong is your nephew. Don't scold him like a criminal."

Zhang Zhongli, Chen Wan, and Zhang Yanhong were stunned for a moment. None of them had expected this family to be so bizarre.

At the same time, the three of them realized that Xiao Qingguo had absolutely no status in this family.

"Captain Xiao, what do you think of what happened today?"

Suddenly, Zhang Zhongli looked coldly at Xiao Qingguo.

Upon hearing this address of Captain Xiao, Xiao Qingguo understood that Zhang Zhongli was extremely dissatisfied with him.

This perfectly auspicious visit between in-laws turned into such an unpleasant situation, and Xiao Qingguo fully understood why Zhang Zhongli was furious.

Previously, Xiao Qingguo's situation at home was not good, and he thought that his mother would change her opinion of him after he became the captain of the militia company.

Last night, Xiao Qingguo brought back pheasants and civets. He had emphasized to his mother, Yang Lijuan, that they should treat Zhang Yanhong's family with courtesy today, no matter what.

Who would have thought that so many unpleasant things would happen in the short time that Zhang Zhongli, Chen Wan, and Zhang Yanhong had been there?

Xiao Qingguo was utterly despondent.

"Uncle Zhang, it's all my fault..."

Xiao Qingguo had nothing to say.

Zhang Zhongli chuckled and then went over to help the bicycle up.

"Wife, Yanhong, let's go home."

At this moment, Zhang Zhongli spoke in an icy tone.

Chen Wan naturally understood what Zhang Zhongli meant; he was completely angry. So she also started pushing her bicycle.

Zhang Yanhong noticed that her parents were angry. Her body trembled, and she was a little at a loss. She kept glancing at Xiao Qingguo and then at her parents.

"This bicycle is ours, give it back to me now."

Xiao Dalong actually came over and tried to steal the bicycle.

Zhang Zhongli gripped the handles tightly with both hands, his eyes practically spitting fire. He truly hadn't expected this child to be so unruly.

"Da Long, let go."

Xiao Qingguo also noticed that Zhang Zhongli was very angry. He couldn't possibly provoke Zhang Zhongli any further, so he immediately rushed over, picked up Xiao Dalong, and pulled him aside.

"Yan Hong, you don't want to go back, right? Then stay here. I'm not going to care about you anymore. From now on, I'll pretend I don't have a daughter like you."

Zhang Zhongli said angrily, then pushed off the ground with one foot, stepped onto the pedal, and rode away on his bicycle.

Chen Wan was speechless. She didn't say anything more and got on her bicycle to leave.

"Dad, Mom, wait for me."

At this moment, Zhang Yanhong knew that staying would bring her no good, and she didn't know how to face Xiao Qingguo's family.

"Hey, hey, in-laws, in-laws, aren't you being incredibly rude? You came to discuss business, and you left without even having a meal."

When Yang Lijuan saw Zhang Zhongli and Chen Wan about to leave without saying a word, she immediately called out.

At the same time, Xiao Qinghua and his wife actually ran over and blocked Zhang Zhongli and Chen Wan, forcing them to stop their bicycles.

"These two bicycles are part of your dowry. You can't ride them away. You have to leave them here now."

Xiao Qinghua's wife openly declared that she wanted to forcibly take the two bicycles.

At this moment, Xiao Qinghua's wife was unaware of Zhang Zhongli's anger. She thought that Zhang Yanhong was after Xiao Qingguo's position as the brigade leader and was throwing herself at him.

Therefore, she was convinced that no matter how much the couple argued, Zhang Yanhong would swallow her anger and keep the bicycles.

"Bright red!"

Suddenly, Zhang Zhongli shouted.

The red jackal that had come on a bicycle suddenly lunged at Xiao Qinghua's wife upon hearing Zhang Zhongli's shout.

"what!"

Xiao Qinghua's wife hadn't expected the red jackal to be so ferocious. When it pounced, its mouth was wide open, and it looked like it wanted to eat people. She was so frightened that she ran back to the main room.

Zhang Zhongli stared coldly at Yang Lijuan.

"In-laws? Who are your in-laws?"

“I, Zhang Zhongli, am not worthy of having a relative like you as a relative.”

Zhang Zhongli said coldly, then rode his bicycle away from the dam area.

Chen Wan and Zhang Yanhong followed.

"My bicycle, leave my bicycle here, you three bastards..."

Xiao Dalong was shouting and yelling, and he grabbed a pebble from the ground, intending to throw it.

Xiao Qingguo reacted and snatched the stone from Xiao Dalong's hand.

"Second brother, what's going on?"

"Are they really here to discuss marriage? Why are they so arrogant?"

"Hmph, I only wanted three turns and one sound, but Zhang Yanhong dared to give me, her mother-in-law, a hard time. If she wants to marry into the family, she has to give an additional 10,000 yuan in cash as a dowry."

Yang Lijuan shouted angrily.

Xiao Qingguo sat weakly on the ground, looking at his family, and cried with despair on his face.

"How could I have been born into such a family... Humph, I'm never coming back."

After a moment of lamentation, Xiao Qingguo suddenly stood up and ran away without looking back.

Xiao Qingguo was well aware of what had happened today. His family situation had hurt Zhang Zhongli, Chen Wan, and Zhang Yanhong, making it difficult to reach an agreement on the marriage.

But Xiao Qingguo didn't want to give up on Zhang Yanhong. He really liked her, and he still had to rush back to Jiuwan Village to apologize.
