Chapter 1725
The National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival passed with people’s laughter and laughter, and October 2nd ushered in as the day turned.
There are many people holding happy events on National Day, and there are also many on the 2nd. You can hear the sound of firecrackers and the sound of fireworks taking off in the early morning in every place.
The first day the Meicun Village Library opened went very smoothly. It opened as scheduled on the 2nd and welcomed children from all over the village.
During the National Day holiday, the staff of Jiudao Township Central Kindergarten also went home to celebrate the holiday. On the 2nd, the leaders of the kindergarten rushed back to the kindergarten to wait for the installation workers to arrive in the afternoon to install various large toys and equipment.
Director Fu and his wife also went back to their hometown to celebrate the festival with their elders. They took the earliest bus from the county seat back to Jiudao on the morning of the 2nd.
Traveling with the couple were a young woman and a little girl. The young woman looked to be in her thirties but not yet forty. The little girl looked about five or six years old. She was wearing a tutu and two small hairpins.
The four of them first went back to the kindergarten to place their luggage. After that, Principal Fu picked up a gift and took the young woman and the little girl straight to Meizi Well.
Director Fu took the young woman and the little girl into Plum Village, walked through the floor in front of the village office building, and arrived at Zhou Papi's house.
Zhou Papi and Aunt Pa didn't know the principal. In order to supervise the children in the village's studies, village chief Zhou also ran a building in the village. Whenever he had nothing to do, he would go to Zhou Papi's house to chat.
Village Chief Zhou knew Principal Fu and was very surprised: "Why is Principal Fu here so free? Is there something wrong with the toys sent to the kindergarten and do I need to report to Xiao Lele?" Principal Fu handed the gift to the hostess
. Then he took out a cigarette and handed it to Village Chief Zhou and Zhou Bapi and his wife: "Uncle Village Chief, Uncle Zhou, I'm here today on private matters, not on official business of the kindergarten. The two uncles smoked, and the aunt smoked. They took the liberty to come and disturb Zhou. Uncle and aunt."
"You're welcome, please sit down." Aunt Pa also took a cigarette and asked the two children to sit down.
The three of them sat down.
Village Chief Zhou and Zhou Papi also sat down to chat with the guests. Village Chief Zhou wanted to light a cigarette but put it away.
Director Fu thought that Village Chief Zhou's lighter was out of steam, so he got up, lit the lighter and lit a cigarette for Village Chief Zhou.
"Thank you. You're here, so it's better not to smoke." Village Chief Zhou waved his hand: "Xiao Lele said that smoking is bad for the lungs. The little ones often smell the smell of smoke and are prone to diseases such as laryngitis. . It doesn’t matter to people of our age, don’t harm the little ones.”
Zhou Papi originally wanted to light a cigarette, but he quietly put it away.
Fu Yuanchang was stunned at first, then turned off the lighter and put out the cigarette he had just lit. He admired Village Chief Zhou from the bottom of his heart like a mountain. "Uncle Village Chief, you are always thinking about me." Little bastards, I am ashamed of myself. You have always been my role model. I will have to remember this in the future and try not to smoke in front of the children." "Thank you. I only woke up in the
past few years. Xiao Lele is right, you can’t go wrong by listening to Xiao Lele’s advice.” Village Chief Zhou smiled with satisfaction and a bit of pride.
Aunt Pa asked people to sit down, and then went to pour a glass of cold water for the guests, so that her husband and cousin could each have a glass of water. Then she went to hold the watermelon and cut it, and invited the watermelon.
Director Fu drank some water, ate watermelon, chatted with the Zhou brothers about their daily life, and listened to Village Chief Zhou talk about the Mei Village library, before he straight to the point explained the purpose of his visit: "Uncle Village Elder, Uncle Zhou , Auntie, I won’t hide it from you. I am here as a matchmaker today. I want to introduce a match to my uncle’s nephew Zhou Xialong.” “Matchmaker?” Aunt Zhou Papiba, the head of Zhou Village, was stunned
. His eyes wandered over Fu Yuanchang and the young woman.
"Yes, I'm here to be a matchmaker," Fu Yuanchang said with a brave heart, "I'm not afraid of my uncles scolding me. I know my uncle's nephew is divorced." That’s why I dared to be a matchmaker.
My mother’s nephew, one of my older cousins, works in the Civil Affairs Bureau. On the day my uncles’ nephews got divorced, my older cousin was also present. Originally, my older cousin didn’t know
Meicun. People, because a golden phoenix flew out of Plum Village, Miss Le became famous, and Plum Village was remembered by many people, so my cousin paid more attention to it.
I haven’t seen my relatives at home for a long time. We had a meal together this time during the holiday and we chatted about work. My cousin asked me out of curiosity. I heard some rumors about why your nephew Zhou Xialong got divorced, so I I know that my uncle's nephew is divorced.
Then, because a cousin in my family also got divorced, in line with the idea that the wealth should not be transferred to outsiders, it is better to act than to think, so I shamelessly brought my sister to show my uncles. Director Fu
explained how he knew Zhou Xialong was divorced. He pointed to the young woman he brought and introduced: "This is my cousin, her name is Fu Chunping. Our generation is still in the ninth server, and the next generation will be out." It’s nine servings.
My sister turns thirty-four in May this year. She has been divorced for a year and a half and has a high school education..."
Chu Chunping was married in Shishi before. The man was an ordinary salaryman. The reason for the divorce was also related to the children. Both men and women were in good health, but after getting married They have been childless for many years.
It is a custom in rural areas that if you are unable to have children, you can bring younger siblings by adopting a child. In order to attract good friends, Fu Chunping and his wife also adopted a girl from the same clan of her husband and raised them by their side. Unfortunately, several Years passed and he still failed to give birth to a son and a half.
Later, the man fell in love with a female colleague in his factory and gave birth to a boy. The man did not mention the divorce because he and the female colleague were the same people who often went to some construction sites. A kind of "temporary couple" who work together, the woman gives birth to the child to the man, and breaks up with the man after receiving a nutrition fee.
The man takes the child back and wants Fu Chunping to raise him as his biological child, and sends away the originally adopted child. One, Fu Chunping did not agree and resolutely divorced her husband and took away the adopted child.
Fu Chunping knew tailoring skills. After the divorce, she rented a house in Shishi and helped the elderly make clothes, or sew and mend items such as changing zippers. She could make ends meet to support her family and maintain her life.
After the divorce, Fu Chunping changed her child's surname to Fu, named Fu Yuanyuan. She was also born in May and is now five years old.
Fu Yuanchang sold her cousin a He added at the end: "The actual situation is like that. If you have any doubts, please ask Miss Le to check it out. There are countless capable people around the little girl, and nothing can be hidden from her."
Before coming here, my elders made a statement. If it happened, my sister would be embarrassed to be raised by the Zhou family. We would pay the family alimony and just hope that the child can live with her mother.
Of course, marriage cannot be bought or sold by force. It mainly depends on whether the man and the woman have an eye for each other. If one party dislikes the other, they will not be happy even if they reluctantly live together. "
Fu Yuanchang was talking, and the mother and daughter sat quietly. The young woman looked at her a few more times, and she blushed in embarrassment.
Village Chief Zhou, and Aunt Zhou Papi went from stupid expressions to epiphany. , and then looked at the young woman with the eyes of a father-in-law looking at a daughter-in-law, with rich expressions.
After listening to Fu Yuanchang’s so much talk, Village Chief Zhou also calmed down. He did not say whether he was good or bad, and only said that he would ask his sister-in-law and nephew. Zhou Xialong personally wanted the guests to sit down while he went to make a phone call. He
made an excuse and ran back to his home, telling his mother-in-law that Fu Yuanchang had brought his clan sister to Zhou's house to see him. Then she called her cousin-in-law and asked her to take
Zhou Xialong to have a photoshoot. Grandma Zhou Man was stunned at first, and then she was happy, waiting for her sister-in-law to come and go to Zhou Papi's house to have a look.
At home, she and her son, Grandma Zhou Man and Brother Zhou paid homage to his ancestors during the Mid-Autumn Festival. He didn't eat at home but went to Lejia. He had nothing to do on the 16th day and was at home. Brother Zhou went to the fields for a walk,
watched the youth love drama "Nianya" with his old mother, and listened to the old While his mother was talking about her son, he just laughed.
Grandma Zhou, who was talking about her son, received a call from Village Chief Zhou saying that a matchmaker had brought a woman to Zhou's house to be a matchmaker for her son, and asked her to take her son to a photo shoot. She hurriedly responded. She agreed.
She told her son to go on a blind date at Zhou Papi's house, and urged her son to change into a set of clothes. She was also going to change into a bright set of clothes. Brother Zhou was not interested in the blind date, and he didn't want to
displease his old mother, so he agreed. Went to see him, but refused to change clothes, and did not allow the old mother to change clothes. They closed the door of the house, and the mother and son put on a straw hat and set off. Grandma Zhou
originally wanted to ask the girl to help with the eyes, but Brother Zhou also refused to let her go. , ask my sister to help her keep an eye on her. If it happens, there will be conflicts again in the future, and what should I do if someone relies on Xiaofeng?
The mother and son walked outside the door of Village Chief Zhou's house, went in and sat for a while. The grandmother-in-law breathed some air, and the uncle and nephew also confessed, and then the four of them went to Zhou Papi's house together.
The cousin went to call Zhou Xialong, and Zhou Papi and Aunt Pa paid the principal Fu and Fu Chunping, mother and daughter. When they saw their cousin and sisters-in-law coming, they quickly invited them to sit at home.
Seeing Village Chief Zhou leading the two old ladies, Director Fu quickly stood up and handed the cigarettes to them.
Fu Chunping also followed her cousin and called him uncle and aunt with a little uneasiness. She guessed that the young and middle-aged people who came in were the ones introduced by her cousin. She didn't have the nerve to look directly at them, so she just looked at them quietly.
The young and middle-aged man introduced by my cousin is of average weight and thinness, dressed casually, neither ugly nor handsome, and has average appearance.
Fu Chunping looked at it for a few times, then looked away, paying attention to the other two ladies.
Fu Yuanyuan also followed her mother to call people. The elderly were called Grandpa Zhou and Grandma Zhou, and the young ones were called Uncle Zhou.
Grandma Zhou and Grandma Zhou Man didn't pretend to be pretentious. After sitting down, they looked at the young woman without hesitation and looked at the foreign minister. The young woman looked quite upright. Looking at her hands and feet and her clothes, she didn't look like Hu Li's fancy type. .
In a word, it seems quite suitable on the surface, but you need to understand your temperament and the like.
After sitting down again, Fu Chunping felt embarrassed being stared at by the two old ladies.
Fu Yuanyuan stood close to her mother and looked at the person curiously.
Brother Zhou also took a look at the young woman. The young woman was wearing a short-sleeved casual shirt with a folded collar, jeans, and her hair was tied into a mid-high ponytail, which was longer than her shoulders.
The young woman has a round face, a little fatter than the average woman, her skin is neither black nor white, and her eyes are also a very common eye shape.
The little cub next to her is a little thin, has good skin, and is fair and fair. He must be losing his teeth. When he smiles, his gums are missing one of his front teeth, which looks quite happy.
When it comes to his feelings for young women, Brother Zhou has one sentence: I don’t have any special feelings. So, he didn't express any opinions and listened to his mother, uncles and aunts chatting with Director Fu.
The two parties explained the situation again, and Grandma Zhou also confessed: "I have to start with this. After Xia Long's divorce, Xia Long and I made a contract in advance to avoid trouble in the future. All the ancestral property will be given to Zhou Tianming.
So, if the woman has a child, regardless of whether it is a boy or a girl, the Zhou family can help raise the child, but will not give the family property. What if
Zhou Xialong and his new wife have another child? It also depends on whether Tianming himself is willing to give some of his family property to his younger brother or sister. If Tianming doesn't want to give it, no one can force him. Zhou Tianming said that when his stepmother
married into the Zhou family, she would not turn her arms outwards and she would sincerely follow her. His father can live a long life, and when his stepmother gets old, he will provide for her. If...,
well, if I don't say this, everyone will understand. Anyway, it means you do the first grade and I do the fifteenth."
Fu Yuan The elder looked at Zhou's mother and son in astonishment: "Aunt, you and Brother Zhou have really thought long term. They have clearly separated the property early. This way it is really easy and reduces a lot of conflicts. The property of both parties is nothing. Controversy, if we get along, we can live together. If we don't get along, we will break up, so we won't be like some couples who go to the stage of litigation over family property, and everyone will be fine." "I also owe it to the Le family, who was the first generation of the Le family to
establish I have set a good role model and spent some time with the young people Lele knows, which has broadened my horizons." Grandma Zhou showed a proud face without knowing it.
The old lady was pragmatic, and Director Fu was willing to continue the discussion in a further direction. He, the Zhou brothers and the sisters-in-law revealed all the family situations to each other so that the other party could understand.
The two sides talked quite speculatively, and the two principals became foils.
After chatting for a while, Aunt Pa went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
The Zhou family stayed for dinner, and Director Fu didn't refuse.
Zhou Chunping couldn't talk about anything else, so she went to the kitchen to help with some odd jobs.
Auntie Pa did not show any politeness and asked people to follow her. While she found the meat and cooked it and made some preparations, she chatted about some household matters. After talking for a while, she asked: "Girl, what do you think of my nephew?"
Fu Chunping blushed again and glanced at the door before whispering: "Aunt, it's the first time we met today. I would say it was love at first sight. That's a lie. I didn't find it annoying, nor did I like it. It's like People like us who have been divorced once don’t have much confidence in remarrying. We may need to get to know each other for a while before we feel it.” The young woman said it quite honestly. Is it her
true thoughts or is it just for herself? Aunt Pa couldn't tell the difference from what she heard, so she decided it would be safer to wait for Xiao Lele to come back and ask Xiao Lele to help find out.
In Meicun, because of the relationship with the Le family, even older singles in their thirties who had never been able to find a partner have become popular. Not to mention Zhou Xialong, Leshan's uncle, if the news of the divorce spreads, , it is estimated that those who propose marriage can cross the threshold.
In order to prevent being taken advantage of by villains, Zhou Xialong was very careless in finding a partner. Aunt Pa never mentioned his nephew again and only chatted about insignificant household matters.
While his cousin was not present, Director Fu, who had given up being a matchmaker, asked Zhou Xialong for his contact number, and gave his cousin's mobile phone number to Zhou Xialong so that both parties could get to know each other.
