Chapter 80 Returning home
. Dad Le and Zhou Qiufeng were newly married. They were very harmonious. Sister-in-law Zhou was very unhappy. The old lady didn’t cook last night. Before she got up in the morning, she was directly yelled at by Zhou Xialong, who came back from watching Tianshui, to take care of the three meals, because The reason is that now that my sister-in-law is married, of course she has to take care of the food.
Aunt Zhou had not cooked food for many years. When she first started cooking, she was in a hurry to make food. Both Zhou Xialong and Grandma Zhou were disgusted. There was nothing they could do. Compared with Zhou Qiufeng, Aunt Zhou's cooking was too rough.
Being disliked, Sister-in-law Zhou was so angry that she wanted to quit. However, Zhou Xialong made her lose her temper with just one sentence. He said, "Everything Xiaofeng makes is delicious, but you still dislike the third and fourth, and always say that this is not good." That's not good. You did it yourself, why didn't you say anything?"
Sister-in-law Zhou was so angry that she swallowed it hard and served her husband and mother-in-law to have breakfast, feed the pigs and chickens, and then cook the pig food. During the process, she either didn't know how much water to put in, or she couldn't find the rice for cooking. I asked Grandma Zhou about everything, and Grandma Zhou replied slowly: "I don't know either. Xiaofeng used to make these. Go and see for yourself to get familiar with them." Brother Zhou was waiting for his sister and brother-in-law to come back at home, and saw his
wife Liu Tong showed that he was completely ignorant of family matters, and his face was so angry that it was darker than the bottom of the pot.
After tossing and tossing for a long time, the sun rose and shone on the roof, shining down from the patio, and the Zhou family was bright.
Zhou Xialong set up tables and chairs in the main hall of the upper room to wait for his sister and brother-in-law. He waited and waited. After waiting for a long time, he could hardly sit still. Finally, when he heard his sister calling "Mom, brother, sister-in-law", he immediately jumped up and ran out to see .
Brother Zhou rushed to the door like a storm. When he saw the girl carrying a basket in one hand and supporting Yueqing in the other, he was stunned. Xiaofeng married Yueqing? !
Yueqing was wearing a red shirt and trousers, ignoring his bad legs and feet. He was handsome and energetic. His sister was also wearing a red shirt and was beaming with joy.
Brother Zhou couldn't believe the fact that Yue Qing was his brother-in-law, but if he wasn't, this time... When
Dad Le saw Brother Zhou, his face was as red as a shrimp: "Brother Zhou."
As soon as he called out, Grandma Zhou also followed to the door. When she saw the girl and her son-in-law, she smiled from ear to ear: "It's good to be back. Come in quickly." "
Auntie." Le's father was at a loss.
"Hey, come in quickly." Grandma Zhou pushed Zhou Xialong away: "Xialong, you're blocking the door and won't let your sister and your brother-in-law come in." "Oh."
Brother Zhou came back to his senses and looked at Yueqing , look at the girl, let the newlyweds enter the house, and walk with them, secretly wondering, is Xiaofeng really married to Yueqing?
When Sister-in-law Zhou heard the voices of her sister-in-law and Yue Qing in the room, she felt bad. Her face was green and white, and she immediately turned around and ran to the small foreign-style building where she was sitting to take shelter first.
Dad Le felt very awkward. He followed Grandma Zhou and Brother Zhou into the house and took a seat. He didn't know where to look. He was very embarrassed.
Zhou Qiufeng generously handed the basket to her brother, smiling and feeling relaxed.
Brother Zhou looked at the girl's expression and felt a little uncomfortable. He hadn't seen the girl show such a cheerful smile for many years. Ever since Xiaofeng came home from divorce, he had always been cautious and busy doing a lot of things, even if he felt aggrieved. Will complain.
"Xiaofeng, are you and Yueqing really married?"
"Yes." Le's father was smart and sat upright.
"Why did you get married all of a sudden..." Zhou Gede was depressed. He had never seen any signs that the two of them wanted to live together, so why did they get married all of a sudden.
Zhou Qiufeng took the lead from her brother: "Brother, I'm going to marry Brother Le. Even my sister-in-law thinks that I'm having an affair with Brother Le. I feel that instead of being told every day, I might as well just prove it and let others know." There will be many topics in the future. Anyway, Brother Le and I are used to gossiping over the years, so it doesn’t matter if we have more gossip."
While she was talking, Dad Le held Zhou Qiufeng’s hand tightly. He finally understood what Xiaofeng said early yesterday morning. Why did her face look so ugly? It turned out that her sister-in-law was gossiping about her.
The smile on Grandma Zhou's face was stiff and her whole face turned pale. She thought Qiu Feng had finally figured it out and ran to live with Yue Qing. It turned out that she suddenly got married because she was forced to stay at home no longer.
It’s over! Sister-in-law Zhou, who was hiding in the lower room, felt a chill in her scalp when she heard what her sister-in-law said. Her sister-in-law had never complained before, so she dared to say such ugly things. She didn't expect that her sister-in-law really married Yueqing and could be so upright. to expose what she did behind Zhou Xialong's back.
Sister-in-law Zhou didn't even dare to take a breath, fearing that the angry Brother Zhou would find her coming to settle accounts with her.
"Liu Tong!" After hearing what the girl said, Brother Zhou stood up angrily and shouted angrily, Liu Tong went too far! Does that sound like what a human would say? As a sister-in-law, if someone says bad things about a sister-in-law, she should protect her shortcomings before calling her a sister-in-law. Liu Tong could actually say that. You can imagine how much grievance Liu Tong gave Xiaofeng behind his back.
"Brother, forget it, I don't care anymore." Zhou Qiufeng reacted quickly and quickly grabbed her brother: "Brother, just be nice to your mother in the future. You don't have to worry about me anymore. Yueqing is very good to me. I picked it up for nothing. A man and a child, I don’t suffer any loss, and besides being so close, I can take care of my mother, so it’s all my profit.” Brother Zhou was so angry with his wife that he was so angry that he was held down by the
girl. Even if his chest was about to explode, he still gave the girl some face. He sat down with a sullen face, almost not daring to look at the faces of my mother and sister. He and his sister had been very close when they were young. There was a lot of farm work at home when they were young, so he still took care of her and led her. Running around everywhere, the brother and sister never lost their temper when they grew up.
He still remembered that before his father passed away, he repeatedly told him to be kind to his sister. He always remembered his father's last words. Sometimes he knew that Liu Tong disliked his sister, but he did not act too tough. After all, Xiaofeng lived at home for a long time, so the relationship between his sister and sister was troubled. Being too stiff is not good, but Liu Tong didn't expect that Liu Tong would do one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes. He didn't dare to go too far in front of him and bully his sister behind his back.
"Xia Long, forget it, listen to Xiaofeng," Grandma Zhou turned pale with anger. After all, old people have strong endurance and think long-term. She endured the tone and helped persuade her son: "Xiaofeng is gone. Lejia, once you have a home, there is no point in holding on to it anymore, as long as your wife can live with you."
"I will remember this for her first. If she dares to treat you badly in the future, I will divorce her and let her go back to her parents' home to show off her power." Brother Zhou said angrily. He held back his anger for a while and looked at Yueqing with an even stronger look. Closeness: "Yueqing, you used to be my brother, and now you are my brother-in-law. We are even closer. I have nothing to say. You and Xiaofeng live a good life. If there is anything I can do to help, remember to call me. Don't be embarrassed."
Le's dad kept nodding. Grandma Zhou also said about the fields and let the Le family grow their own. Le's dad had no objection, and Zhou Qiufeng readily agreed.
Speaking of Xiao Lele again, Brother Zhou felt embarrassed again when he heard that Xiao Lele went to play in the mountains again. He initially thought that Xiao Lele didn't come because she was embarrassed when the adults came back, but he didn't expect that she wasn't at home.
"Then you guys are getting married, Lele doesn't know yet?" Brother Zhou felt mixed emotions when he thought of that Bie'er, and he was even more annoyed with Liu Tong. Liu Tong had made Xiaofeng suffer, forcing Xiaofeng to marry suddenly. Suddenly, he There was no time to prepare, and even little Lele was not at home. When Lele came home and found out that the two adults were married behind her back, she wondered if she would be unhappy.
"Yeah." Zhou Qiufeng blushed and nodded, and Lele's dad rushed to the rescue: "I called, but Lele's phone couldn't be reached. He probably went to a place with no signal again. Don't worry, Lele has wanted a baby for a long time. Feng is a new mother. When she comes back, she will be happy and not annoyed when she finds out that the new mother has entered the house."
Speaking of Lele, Grandma Zhou's depression suddenly dissipated: "Lele is a good child and will not give Xiaofeng any trouble. I was so angry that Xiaolele came to our house on the Dragon Boat Festival to help her father Yueqing propose marriage. I didn’t know what Xiaofeng was thinking at the time, so I didn’t tell you. Now that Xiaofeng and Yueqing have settled down, I feel relieved. "
..." Brother Zhou looked shocked. Is that really happening?
Lele's father lowered his head in shame, and Zhou Qiufeng was also very embarrassed: "Mom, you didn't say that Lele came to you as a matchmaker, don't you know who the new mother that little Lele wants is?" "I lied to you
. If I tell the truth, will you tell the truth?" Grandma Zhou thought and smiled first.
Zhou Qiufeng was speechless. Her mother was still pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger. Now Brother Zhou was completely relieved. Xiaofeng married to the Le family, and in the future he wanted Xiao Lele to provide for his sister in old age. Lele did not mind Xiaofeng, Xiaofeng Only then can you live a really easy life.
The atmosphere in the upper room improved, and Sister-in-law Zhou sneaked out from the side door on the lower floor, hurriedly ran to the garden, got some vegetables and beans, and then went home pretending that she was not at home when she went to the garden before.
Brother Zhou and Grandma Zhou were angry, but they didn't directly vent their anger. Dad Le was very polite and immediately shouted: "Sister-in-law is back. Xiaofeng and I are married. I hope my sister-in-law will take good care of her in the future." "That's right." Sister-in-law Zhou kept saying
. She agreed, leaving the vegetables behind and running to find dried fruits. She was not familiar with things at home, so it took her a long time to find red melon seeds.
Sister Zhou had a secret in her mind, she was very attentive and very aware of current affairs. She asked Brother Zhou what to eat for lunch, and received instructions from her husband to slaughter chickens and ducks.
No matter how angry Brother Zhou was, he didn't want to talk to his wife, but he still had reason. In order not to wrong his sister and brother-in-law, he went to the kitchen to cook and made a particularly sumptuous lunch.
According to rural customs, a newly married girl cannot have three meals at her parents' house on the day she returns home, let alone rest. The Le family and the Zhou family are so close, so naturally they don't need to live there. After lunch, Le's father and Zhou Qiufeng went back to the Le family.
Brother Zhou felt sorry for his sister, so he took the initiative and put three-quarters of the chickens, ducks and geese that his sister had raised into cages. He also gave the piglets and the tricycle that his sister bought to his sister as a dowry and sent them to Lejia, and even moved them to Lejia. Went to feed the chickens and ducks several bags of corn and rice.
Sister-in-law Zhou was bleeding from heartache, but she still had to pretend to be extremely happy and smile at each other, not to mention how painful it was.
Dad Le was embarrassed and wanted to send the things back, but Zhou Qiufeng showed off her housewife attitude and accepted all the return gifts from her brother unceremoniously.
