Chapter 122
Chapter 122
Chu Sheng Mei brought up remarriage to her in-laws. As expected, they strongly opposed.
Mother Du's fingers almost poked her face: "I knew it. I knew that you can't hold on. How long had Zhuo Cheng been gone? His bones had yet to chill and you remarry! Can you live up to how well Zhuo Cheng treated him?"
Chu Sheng Mei pushed her hand away and coldly uttered, "Why should I feel did him wrong? When he was alive, did I put a green hat on him or did something wrong to your Du Family? No matter who comes today, it's the same. I have a clear conscience! "
Mother Du's pair of triangular eyes sent daggered gaze: "Clear conscience? Zhuo Cheng only gone for a year and a half and you are ready to remarry. Who knows if this adulterer was from before or not? Maybe, he knew you were shameless, he committed suicide with cold heart. If not, why would he not think it through out of the blue? "
Chu Sheng Mei was blinded with fury: "If Zhuo Cheng knew that his mom couldn't wait to splash dirty water on him, his coffin board might not stay in place! Why would Zhuo Cheng commit suicide? I want to know more than anyone else. He died off cleanly, but put all the pressure and public opinion on me alone. If he could come back alive, I would like to ask him why he did it? Did he think of me and little Mi Bao when he committed suicide?"
Agitated, she spoke until her body trembled and her tears couldn't resist spilling.
She remembered when Du Zhuo Cheng had just passed and she was trapped in the abyss of blame and confusion every day.
She couldn't figure out why he committed suicide. She took out every clip of their interaction and analyzed them over and over again. She wrecked her mind until her brain was close to bursting. Still, she couldn't come up with any conclusion.
Later, she gradually believed what other said and suspected herself; which part she didn't do well enough to make him do not want to live. During that time, she fell into the abyss and lived worst than death!
If it weren't for Qiao Zhen Min pulling her out, she would have followed him!
"Since you haven't did Zhuo Cheng wrong, then prove it to us. Prove it to the world!"
Unfortunately, Mother Du won't listen. Right now, she felt that Chu Sheng Mei had betrayed her son and abandon them two elderly people. She won't allowed this!
Chu Sheng Mei's whole body trembled from fury. The only thing she felt fortunate now was that she sent her daughter, little Mi Bao to her maternal home early in the morning.
She turned her head to look at Father Du; hoping that he could stand up and say a few fair words.
But as soon as Father Du met her gaze, he immediately twisted his head to the other side.
Although he didn't say a word, his attitude was obvious. He didn't agree with her remarriage!
Chu Sheng Mei wiped her tears and stated coldly, "I'm here to inform you today; not to obtain your consent!"
Speaking, she went into the room to pack to leave.
From the day of Du Zhuo Cheng's death, it wasn't her home!
When Mother Du sat on the ground, she howled and wailed: "I can't live! Son was forced to death and his bones are yet to turn cold. His wife can't wait to marry someone. My poor Zhuo Cheng, come back alive and tell Mom whether you were force to a dead-end and made that choice back then?"
"Shut up!"
Chu Sheng Mei had repeatedly warned herself to ignore her. But hearing her hit back like this, she was pissed.
How could Mother Du? She cried even more unscrupulously and attracted all the people from the neighborhood. On top of that, she added oil and vinegar on how unbearable Chu Sheng Mei was.
When everyone heard this, the gaze on Chu Sheng Mei became a little meaningful.
Some people joined the persuasion group: "Sheng Mei, Zhuo Cheng was so great to you back then. Even if you want to marry someone, you can't be so fast. How would your in-laws feel?"
"Yeah, it doesn't mean that you can't remarry. At least, wait for three to five years. Or wait for your in-laws pass away! It's not too late then"
Chu Sheng Mei found it exasperating and amusing.
After her in-laws pass away, she would probably be fifty or sixty years old. Look for a fart!
At this time, a man pushed through everyone and walked over: "Qing Dynasty had long perished. Now it is a new society. If you want to keep a chastity archway, you can go back and slowly guard it. As long as you promote this kind of feudal decayed thoughts in public, I will go to the police now! "
Everyone was startled when they heard this.
Some people didn't want trouble closed their mouths. While some people rebelliously whispered.
Mother Du jumped up from the ground and pointed at the man: "You! I know you! You are Sheng Mei's family's god-relative! Alright! So you were saying you didn't did anything sorry to Zhuo Cheng. From what I see, you two must have got together long ago! "
Qiao Zhen Min walked in: "This Auntie, it's the first I see someone who can't wait to splash dirty water on their son like you! It can't be that Du Zhuo Cheng wasn't birthed by you? Let me guess, you hate Du Zhuo Cheng so much, Du Zhuo Cheng is your man and another woman's. For so many years, you harbor hate and finally can't hold it a year ago. You poisoned Zhuo Cheng. Afraid of getting investigated, you transported Zhuo Cheng to the train track and create a fake suicide scene, right? "
Who doesn't how to open your mouth?
Who can't spill dirty water?
Mother Du trembled from in anger: "You are spraying blood on people! I, I'm going to the police station to report!"
"Go then!Let's wait for the police to come. I will tell the police what I just said now and let them investigate. A perfectly fine person commit suicide just like that? It must be your doing!"
Qiao Zhen Min had a roguish face as he spoke.
To deal with people like Mother Du, one had to be more shameless and unreasonable than her!
Mother Du was so vexed that she almost collapse on the spot!
Father Du was so pissed: "This comrade, don't talk nonsense!"
Qiao Zhen Min shrugged: "Since you can talk nonsense, why can't others? You want to cause a stir? I'll accompany you. In the end, it's your Du Family and your son who lose face."
It was Father Du's first time witnessing seeing this kind of headstrong in his life and were as pissed as Mother Du.
Upon Qiao Zhen Min's arrival, Chu Sheng Mei was initially worried that Qiao Zhen Min would intensify the conflict. To her surprise, he ignited her in-laws with a few sentences.
She wanted to laugh but wasn't the moment to. So she just glance at him and turned to go pack.
Qiao Zhen Min: "Sheng Mei and I will get married. After marriage, little Mi Bao will live with us."
Mother Du gritted her teeth and rebutted: "Don't think about it! Little Mi Bao is our Du Family's children. Don't even think about taking her!"
Qiao Zhen Min ignored her and continued: "Although you are little Mi Bao's grandparents, Sheng Mei is her biological mother. Nobody can stop her if she want to take little Mi Bao. Same with her remarriage, you can't stop it. I think you should understand these two points very well!"
Mother Du's howl got caught in her throat: "Is there any heaven ... oh God..."
"Shut up!" Qiao Zhen Min sharply hollered.
Mother Du's wail was stuck in her throat; can't go up or down. Quite uncomfortable
Qiao Zhen Min condescendingly spoke: "If you part peacefully, I can let little Mi Bao keep her surname, come back to visit you two, and give you old age care when you're old if she want. However, if you keep going on like this, don't blame us for being unreserved! "
Reaching here, he walked closer to Father Du and lowered his voice: "I heard before that some agents would be killed once their identity is leaked. Say, could it be that Du Zhuo Cheng suddenly ran to the track to commit suicide because..."
"You're talking nonsense!" Father Du exploded.
Qiao Zhen Min straightened his body and frigidly looked at them: "Whether I'm speaking nonsense or not, who knows. If you're not afraid, you can continue to with this rouse!"
Father Du gritted his teeth: "You aren't afraid of implicating Sheng Mei and little Mi Bao?"
Qiao Zhen Min responded: "If does reach that point, Sheng Mei's elder brother won't sit by. I will definitely clear my money to protect them mother and daughter. You probably don't know, I got a brother-in-law who is an army's general lieutenant. With so many people, it is still possible to protect two people. While you two elderly, your children, and grandchildren would have it miserable!
Father Du's beard even tilted up from vex: "You ... you!"
Qiao Zhen Min set down an ultimatum: "Having said this,, it is best to think about the consequences when making your choice!"
After speaking, he went in to help Chu Sheng Mei pack up and took her away from Du's house.
This time, no one dared to stop, including Mother Du or Father Du.
Once the two came out of Du's house, Chu Sheng Mei's eyes fell on him.
Qiao Zhen Min felt self-conscious: "You ... why are you looking at me like this? Is there something on my face?"
Chu Sheng Mei shook her head: "No. How you act just now is the first time for me!"
They had been interacting for almost a year. During this year, Qiao Zhen Min always appeared attentive and good-tempered in front of her. Before today, she thought he was a person with no temper.
Qiao Zhen Min scratched his ears and said, "Did I scare you? Don't worry, I have a good temper on most days. Just now was to scare your in -laws!"
Chu Sheng Mei took in his nervous state and burst into chuckles: "You can rest assured, I'm not so timid. What's more, I think you look... very manly!"
Gave her a sense of security!
Qiao Zhen Min instantly bloomed.
Seeing that there were no one around, he lowered voice, "If you like it, I will often do it for you in the future!"
This sounded very suggestive.
Chu Sheng Mei's cheeks flamed up and smacked him.
The smile on Qiao Zhen Min's face grew brighter.
Because both of them were remarrying, neither of them plans to make it big deal. Especially Qiao Zhen Min, as it was his third time.
They went to collect the marriage certificate the day after they left Du's house. Then the two returned to Yunlai Town to have a meal with the family.
Toward the joining of the two, Qiao Family all expressed their blessings and sent congratulatory gifts.
After a few days of fear, Du Family considered and finally chose to compromise.
Because they also began to suspect that their son was a spy. If not, how could someone choose such a cruel way to die?
If their son was really a spy, then they and their remaining relatives might die without a whole body!
What's more, even if their son wasn't a spy, their Du Family can't fight against Qiao and Chu Family. Their daughter returned to home the day after Chu Sheng Mei left and kept persuading them not to 'act up' anymore.
So in this case, no matter how unwilling they were, they can only let their daughter-in-law and granddaughter go.
However, they had made a final fight for themselves. Little Mi Bao's surname must not be changed and must be sent back to Du's house during winter and summer vacations.
Regarding these two points, Chu Sheng Mei only agreed to the first point.
On the latter one, she said that it should be determined according to the specific situation. What's more, she will ask the child for her willingness in the future. If the child don't want to go back, she will never force her.
Du Family's two elders was about to vomit, but didn't dare to refute any more.
After staying in the town for two days, Qiao Zhen Min returned to Nanshan County with his new wife and two daughters.
Chu Sheng Mei quit her job in Baocheng County a month ago. Right now, their transportation company was developing very rapidly.
This resignation also allow her go to help manage the transportation company.
On the third day after Qiao Zhen Min's family of four left, first branch returned to Yunlai Town.
With them was Huo Chi's cousin, Dai Xiao Xue.
Although Dai Xiao Xue was the same age as Da Qiao, she started school relatively late because of her family background. She only entered the second year of high school in September.
Like An Ping, she had a headache when she open a book and struggled to study.
She didn't want to study for a long time, but her aunt, Huo Chi's mom, didn't agree. She urged her to at least graduate from high school.
In this final exam, she failed more than half of the subjects. Her family scolded her so much that she stormed out in anger and ran to first branch's restaurant.
After listening to her story, An Ping sympathized with her very much. He felt that she was the exactly the same as him. So in order to comfort her wounded heart, he cooked her a feast.
Dai Xiao Xue was very moved. Therefore, she helped out for free in the restaurant during the summer vacation. Only request was for An Ping to cook her a delicious meal every day.
This time when first branch return to their hometown, she followed them over without thinking. Not treating herself as an outsider.
Seeing Da Qiao, her eyes instantly lit up. She rushed over, "Elder Sister Da Qiao, why are getting more and more beautiful? My God, I would give up ten years of my life if I could get one tenth of your beauty!"
"My god, your skin is so tender and fair. My god, your legs are so long and straight. My god, your eyelashes are so long and thick. My god..."
Her rainbow-licking was released one after another like it cost nothing.
At the end, Da Qiao was too embarrassed to keep listening to it. She hurriedly stopped her, "Does your family know that you came here?"
Dai Xiao Xue nodded, "They know. And my aunt approved of my trip here. Elder Sister Da Qiao, I heard that you are the top scorer in the provincial college entrance examination. I really envy you. If my brain is one-tenth as smart as yours, I'm willing to give up lifespan of..."
Seeing a new wave of rainbow-licking was about to start again, Da Qiao rushed to interrupted her again: "Are you hungry? Let me make you some noodles?"
At the sound of food, Dai Xiao Xue's eyes brightened. She nodded her head like a pecking chick: "Okay, okay, it would be even better if you could add a poached egg!"
"No problem!" Da Qiao pursed her lips and smiled. Then she made way to the kitchen to cook noodles for first branch.
Seeing this, Huo Chi took the opportunity to go in and help.
Because of the last letter, Da Qiao had been avoiding him recently; not replying to him and didn't seem to want to talk to him.
Huo Chi was a little confused.
As he handed over the washed eggs, he asked with deliberation, "I...the letter I sent to you last time, how did you feel after reading it?"
He compared her to a sloppy and fierce little wild dog and came to ask her how she felt?
This man was really, too much!
Da Qiao puffed out her cheeks. Expression that had 'I'm angry and can't be coax' written all on her face.
Not only did she not accept the eggs he handed over, her eyes didn't fall on him from beginning to end.
Huo Chi sensed she was fuming but didn't know why.
Was there something wrong with his letter?
But he praised her like a furry little animal. Why would she be unhappy?
He pursed his thin lips and tentatively asked, "Nian Nian, you... don't like furry animals?"
Da Qiao wasn't really angry, but a little aggrieved: "...I don't like. They are not cute at all!"
Wasn't she much cuter than a wild dog?
Huo Chi immediately assured: "Don't worry. I won't say anything you don't like from now on. Now... don't be mad with me?"
Only then did Da Qiao accepted the egg in his hand with a pout: "Not angry anymore. Elder Brother Huo Chi, you have to remember what you said. You can't write like that again, understand?"
Huo Chi rapidly bobbed his head like a good student who knew his mistakes and can correct them.
Da Qiao was satisfied. Only then did she reveal shallow dimples.
Huo Chi's eyes fell tightly on her pink and rosy lips. His heart was beating wildly.
At this moment, Dai Xiao Xue's voice came from outside: "Elder Sister Da Qiao, Elder Cousin Brother, why aren't there any movement after going in so long? Do you want me to come in and help?"
Huo Chi felt like he was caught and his ears turned red with a swoosh: "No need, it's nearly done."
Dai Xiao Xue acknowledged and didn't come in. She turned her head and spoke to An Ping, "I think Elder Sister Da Qiao is charming. Even a difficult person like my elder cousin brother become her little tail!"
An Ping nodded with a smile: "Younger Sister Da Qiao is brilliant. The food she makes is better than me. It is obviously the same ingredients and the same steps, but she makes it better than me!"
Dai Xiao Xue shook her head: "Elder Brother An Ping, don't be discouraged. I think you are already great. I like to eat your dishes. Every time I eat your dishes, I can eat an extra bowl of rice. Look at me, aren't I a lot fatter than before?"
An Ping seriously examined her before nodded like straight laced man: "You have gained a lot of weight. I do think you are prettier like this; fair and plump. Quite a blessed appearance!"
If other girls heard that they were called fair and plump, they will definitely be displeased. But Dai Xiao Xue wouldn't.
She touched her fleshy cheeks and responded, "Elder Brother An Ping, you're right. Recently, I also felt I'm quite blessed when I look at myself. Are we considered heroes who see eye to eye?"
An Ping smiled and nodded: "Yup!"
He felt that Dai Xiao Xue was different from other girls.
She had tasted poo like himself. Nor do they like studying. She also liked to eat his dishes. Every time he saw her finish his dishes, he felt a special sense of accomplishment.
Watching her gain weight little by little, he felt like... a pig farmer.
Da Qiao and Huo Chi came out with the noodles and happened to hear their conversation. Reaction- speechless.
But what was even more speechless was still behind. When An Ping clipped up a poached egg and spoke, "The eggs laid by this old hen are very fragrant."
Dai Xiao Xue curiously asked, "Elder Brother An Ping, how do you know this is from an old hen?"
An Ping said: "Because roosters can't lay eggs. And the chickens in our house are very old. So if isn't an old hen, what is it?"
Dai Xiao Xue's eyes were sparkling, while her face was full of admiration: "Elder Brother An Ping, you are amazing. You know so much!"
An Ping scratched his ears a little shyness and proudness as he foolishly grinned: "If you don't understand anything, feel free to ask me!"
Dai Xiao Xue nodded like a pecking chick: "En, Elder Brother An Ping, you are so great!"
Da Qiao:""
Huo Chi: "..."
So it was Eighth King meeting eye with a green mung bean???
After Wan Chun Ju came back, she couldn't take a rest or a breath. Once she found her eldest daughter, she berated: "I really raised you for nothing. Did you have your mom in your mind?"
Qiao Dong He bowed her head and apologized, "I'm sorry, Mom."
If it wasn't for her accidental pregnancy, she would definitely not skip her parents and seek her grandparents for a decision. It was all her fault.
Wan Chun Ju didn't want to drop it: "What use is a sorry? You..."
Qiao Xiu Zhi walked in at this time and spoke, "It was I who approve of their marriage. If you want to blame someone, you can blame me!"
Wan Chun Ju's aura suddenly dropped a lot: "Mom, I'm not blaming you. I just think this child is insensible!"
Qiao Xiu Zhi nodded: "That's certainly true. However, it already happened. So leave it. This time it's my fault. You can keep 100 yuan for of the wedding gift!"
"Mom, isn't one hundred yuan... a bit too little?"
Wan Chun Ju wasn't satisfied with this amount.
The reason why she came to scold Qiao Dong He was to grasp the move and then take the opportunity to swallow the whole wedding gift without leaving a cent!
Qiao Xiu Zhi raised her eyebrows: "If you think it's too little, then forget it. Let Dong He take it all away!"
Wan Chun Ju hurriedly said: "Mom, not that I think about it, I feel 100 yuan isn't little. I don't dislike."
Qiao Xiu Zhi nodded: "Since you don't dislike, then save your saliva and stop scolding."
After Wan Chun Ju left, Qiao Dong He gripped the corner of her clothes, "Thank you, Grandmother!"
Qiao Xiuzhi sat down on the kang and patted the space next to her to beckon her.
Then she sincerely advised: "Dong He, your temperament is calm and meticulous. This is your strong point. But at the same time you are too calm. You like to look ahead and think about everything; basically worry too much about other people's feelings!"
Qiao Dong He lowered her head: "You're right, Grandmother. Sometimes I don't like my own character."
Qiao Xiu Zhi responded: "You will soon marry into Luo Family. Young Luo's mom is someone worrisome. You have to learn to stand up by yourself. Grandmother is old and can't protect you for the rest of your life, understand?"
When Qiao Dong He heard the following words, tears almost came out: "I understand. Grandmother, don't say that. My heart hurts. Grandmother and Grandfather will live to a hundred years!"
Qiao Xiu Zhi patted her head: "It's good if you understand. Wipe away your tears. Also, you mustn't tell your mom about your pregnancy, understand?"
Qiao Dong He rapidly bobbed: "I know. I won't tell anyone!"
If her mom knew, it would be equivalent to letting the whole world know.
The wedding banquet for Qiao Dong He and Luo Jun Liang was scheduled for ten days later.
Before she got married, all her siblings gave her gifts they bought or made.
What Da Qiao gave this time was not dried flowers, but wolfberry.
After the reform, Qili Village vigorously planted wolfberry trees. The wolfberry fruit was sold all over the province. Now the villagers were living a good life.
In the last year, Da Qiao had planted two wolfberry trees in her yard. In addition to watering the wolfberry trees with jade bead water, she had washed the wolfberry with the jade bead water before drying it.
In this way, wolfberry had more medicinal benefits than the dried flowers. Wolfberry was a warming and nourishing medicine. Pregnant women can consume it.
Wan Chun Ju saw the wolfberry fruit that Da Qiao gave and rolled her eyes: "It's true that the richer one is, the more stingy they are! I heard that the school gave Da Qiao a thousand yuan. Why can't you bear to part with a penny? Isn't this looking down on people?"
Qiao Dong He remembered what her grandmother said to her and frowned: "Mom, don't talk nonsense. Younger Sister Da Qiao's gift is wonderful. I like it very much!"
Qiao Dong Yun sterned up her small face: "Mom, why are you acting up again? If you do this again, I will tell my grandmother!"
Seeing that none of her children were on her side, Wan Chun Ju was so pissed that she almost vomited blood. She stormed out.
She wanted to talk to her man, but Qiao Zhen Guo was nurturing feeling between with Gu Gu and Pi Pi. So he didn't have time to listen to her nagging.
How infuriating!
Time flew and it was the day before Qiao Dong He's wedding day.
Qiao Dong He was so nervous that she couldn't sleep; flipping around the bed like pancakes.
Another unable to sleep was Huo Chi.
Since his last 'love letter' to Da Qiao, he hadn't written it again.
During this period of time, there had been no progress between the two. He was very anxious.
He specially called his elder cousin brother in the capital today and told him that Da Qiao didn't like furry animals.
It seem that his elder cousin brother was occupied as acted very perfunctory; said since she didn't like furry animals, so write about other animals. Then he hung up the phone without waiting for reply.
He was pissed and felt that when he return to the capital, it was necessary for him to get the camera back.
He turned around and suddenly something flashed in his mind.
That's right, Da Qiao had always been a different girl. When she was young, she always got him to make a grass-woven old hen, Gu Gu. So it was normal for her not to like furry animals!
Huo Chi jumped up from the bed, found a pen and paper, and the pen flew. Soon, a love letter was completed!
The next day, when everyone wasn't paying attention, he secretly stuffed the love letter to Da Qiao again.
Da Qiao held the love letter he handed over and her whole person froze.
For some reason, she had a bad feeling.
Huo Chi didn't notice her expression. Before going out, he whispered to her with red ears: "You must reply to me this time!"
Da Qiao nodded stiffly and secretly went back to the room to open the letter.
Then her face turned red.
She couldn't remember what was written in the beginning. She stared at the last paragraph of the letter. Her sight was:
A little boar I'd be, if you would a little sow
A little rooster I'd be, if you, its little hen
Just to
Be the same race as you
Da Qiao hugged the letter with a beating heart. Was Elder Brother Huo Chi trying to confess to her?
So straightforward and so embarrassing. Hoo hoo!
The author has something to say: Ahem, Huo Chi's cheesy love poems are adapted from the poems of the Hungarian poet Petofi Sandor:
A branch I'd be, if you would be its bloom,
A bloom I'd be, if you, its dew.
I'd be the dew, if sunlight
You
Would love me daily.
My heart, if vaults of darkness you would be
I'd be your morning star,
And even if you'd blaze with mouths of hell
I'd clench you tighter, closer, to my breast.
The author's face is covered: though it's cheesy, Da Qiao at least get it
