Adored Koi in the ’70s

Chapter 51

The banquet at Qiao's house had already begun.

Qiao Family sold the 100-year-old Ganoderma lucidum for a lot of money last time. So the dishes prepared this time were top-notch. There were two meat dishes in each table. This hadn't been seen in anywhere in ten miles for a long time!

The villagers didn't have time to praise them. They buried themselves in eating. They couldn't talk too much at the moment. If they said one word, they would eat less meat. They have nowhere to cry then.

The villagers ate until their mouths were covered with oil. The smell of meat wafted outside Qiao's old house. Those who weren't invited to the banquet passed by and all gulped hard.

It was so fragrant. It had been more than a month since they entered the countryside. Let alone eating meat, they haven't even seen meat residue!

"Da Zhi, didn't you say that you set Qiao Family's eldest as your target? Why is there no news at all recently?"

Ye Zhen Zhen swallowed her saliva as she stretched her neck to look inside Qiao's old house.

Da Zhi was also swallowing. Her face instantly sank when she heard this.

Can she be blamed for this?

Qiao Zhen Guo looked simple and honest on the outside. Who knew he got a poisonous tongue once he opened his mouth!

On the way to the production team on the first day, she lost all face. After that, she felt that the male educated youths looked at her strangely. It was only recently that the situation improved a bit.

She originally wanted to change target, but the villagers in the production team didn't like to have much contact the educated youth. Those who were willing to interact with them were all idler or poor people who wanted to take advantage!

For example, there was one called Gou Sheng in the village. He would pick some wild flowers and put them at their educated youth center every day. He was using this method to try and impress one of the female educated youths and finally marry a wife back!

Truly daydreaming? Dreaming too beautifully!

As for the other men in the village, they were either too ugly, too old, too poor, or have little power in their hands. It seem that they were all inferior to Qiao Zhen Guo!

Qiao Zhen Guo was the first Waterloo in her life. She had always been brooding about it. So after pondering again and again, she decided to attack the other party.

But!

Don't know what was up with this person. He ran faster than a rabbit every day after work. She didn't have a chance to talk to him if she wanted to grasp the opportunity!

Really pissed her off!

Ye Zhen Zhen saw that she didn't speak and didn't continue to ask.

She looked at her rough hands and sighed, "Say, in this production team, which family has a lot of sons and well-off excluding Qiao Family?"

Da Zhi answered: "Wang Family. The production leader's family."

Ye Zhen Zhen's eyes lit up: "That's right. How could I forget this!"

Da Zhi spoke: "If you want to choose a target, I suggest you choose Wang Family's old Fifth. Apart from him, the other three men in Wang Family are all blockheads!"

Don't ask her why she knew. If asked, then answer was that she had tried. They all avoided her like she was a snake or a scorpion!

Ye Zhen Zhen's eyes flashed. It was unknown what she was thinking.

...

The children went to one side to play after eating.

Da Qiao's mind was simple. Although she still remembered the last time Chen Lai Di accused her, she didn't take the opportunity to exclude her. She let her play with everyone.

Before she came to Qiao's house, Chen Lai Di was warned by her mom. So even when she saw Da Qiao wearing a new dress and her eyes were red from jealousy, she didn't dare to find fault with Da Qiao.

She rolled her eyes and set her target on little Yi Ming, who was on the side: "Hey, little one over there, come here!"

Little Yi Ming glanced at her and made a face at her: "Ugly, I don't want to play with you... la la la..."

Little Yi Ming still remembered that this person wrongly accused Elder Sister Nian Nian last time and her mom wanted to beat his Elder Sister Nian Nian. Hmph!

Chen Lai Di was infuriated!

Just as Qiao Hong Xia came over, she immediately complained.

After hearing this, Qiao Hong Xia said while helping her son pull his clothes into place: "Little Yi Ming, you can't name-call people, understand?"

Little Yi Ming's small eyes glared as he harrumphed: "But she wrongly accused Sister Nian Nian last time!"

"That's not a reason for you to name-call people. Your Elder Sister Nian Nian doesn't like children who name-call people!"

Qiao Hong Xia didn't like Chen Lai Di either. She was as petty-minded as like her mom, Qiao Hong Mei. Still, she didn't want her child to develop the habit of calling people names so casually.

Hearing that Elder Sister Nian Nian didn't like it, Little Yi Ming finally compromised: "I understand."

Chen Lai Di appeared proud when little Yi Ming was told off by his mom.

Who knew that as soon as Qiao Hong Xia walked away, little Yi Ming turned around and made a face at her again: "Ugly, la la la..."

After little Yi Ming finished, he swung his short legs and ran away.

Dare to wrongly accuse Elder Sister Nian Nian? Then he will still call her names next time!

Chen Lai Di jumped in anger: "Don't run away, little fool! See how I'll deal with you when I catch you!"

Da Qiao was pulled to the corner by Chen Zhao Di.

Chen Zhao Di glanced around, found that there was no around, and whispered: "Da Qiao, you are so blessed now. You get to eat meat every day and wear new clothes. Unlike me..."

As she spoke, she burst into tears.

Last time, in order to save her mom, she rushed into the mosquito fog without hesitation. However, her mom didn't think she was filial. Instead, she called her stupid and made the family waste so much medical expenses.

Da Qiao didn't know how to comfort her elder cousin sister.

In the past, her mom didn't like her. Elder Cousin Sister Zhao Di wasn't loved by her mom either.

When she came to Qiao's house before, Elder Cousin Sister Zhao Di would secretly help her with some housework. So she sympathized with Elder Cousin Sister Zhao Di.

She was about to say that she would go back and get the candy she had saved, when she heard the other person speak, "Da Qiao, you are doing so well now. Please help me on the sake that we were both pitiful people before!"

Da Qiao's hand was red from her grasp. "Elder Cousin Sister Zhao Di, how do you want me to help you? I saved some candy. I'll give you all of it. Is that enough?"

"Not enough." Chen Zhao Di shook her head with red eyes, "Da Qiao, you have so many new clothes. Give me some. Before we came over, my mom ordered me to get new clothes from you. Otherwise, once we go back, she won't give me food...I really have no choice..."

"Elder Cousin Sister, I'm sorry. I can't give you clothes." Da Qiao frowned.

She can give her candy, or give her the one dime she had saved. However, her clothes were made by her family. She didn't want to give it to anyone!

"Da Qiao, how can you be like this? You were so pitiful before, and I help do chores for you! Now you've gotten better and don't want to help me. You... woo... want to watch me starve to death? Have pity on me!"

Chen Zhao Di was crying pitifully.

If she had a little fairer skin and was prettier, she would have give a 'I'm pitiful'. Unfortunately, she wasn't pretty and her skin was a little tanned.

Da Qiao had an unspeakable discomfort in her heart.

She wanted to pull her hand back, but Chen Zhao Di held it tightly.

"What are you doing? Still, not letting go? Can't you see that Younger Sister Da Qiao's hands are grasped red by you?"

Qiao Dong Ying chewed pork balls in her mouth as she walked over with her pointed gaze.

As soon as Chen Zhao Di saw Qiao Dong Ying, she trembled and let go of Da Qiao's hand subconsciously.

Still, she sobbed: "Elder Cousin Sister Dong Ying, I'm not bullying Da Qiao, I was forced by my mom. If I don't get new clothes from Da Qiao, she will really not give me food. Have pity on me!"

Qiao Dong Ying sneered: "Just because you are pitiful, Da Qiao have to give you new clothes? Next time, if you say you are pitiful, do you want Qiao Family to give you everything? If not, we are bad guys, right?"

Chen Zhao Di shook her head with tears in her eyes: "I didn't say it like that."

"But you think so!" Qiao Dong Ying hit the nail on the head.

Chen Zhao Di was indeed very pitiful, but pitiful people must have some dislikeable parts!

She knew that her mom's request was wrong, but she never resisted. She used her pitiful aspect to force others!

Everyone didn't see this side of her before and still sympathetically helped her a few times.

But this person was heartless. She felt that she was pitiful, so everyone else should help her. She never knew how to be grateful.

In the past, Grandmother felt she was pitifully. She helped speak for her a few times and bought her food and clothes. However, this person! With a turn of a head, she joined force with her mom and used this trick to deceive Grandmother!

Therefore, no matter how pitiful such a person was, she wasn't worthy of sympathy!

Qiao Dong Ying beckoned to Da Qiao: "Da Qiao, come here. Ignore her. If she dare to pester you again, we'll tell Grandmother!"

Da Qiao glanced at Elder Cousin Sister Zhao Di. She took out two milk candies from her pocket and said, "These candies are for you. I'm leaving."

Chen Zhao Di looked at the milk candies in her hand. Thinking how she will be beaten by her mom when she went back, tears flowed again.

She was so pitiful. Why can't they help her once?

...

After the banquet was over, the villagers gradually dispersed. Some women stayed behind to help clean up the dishes.

After cleaning up, Qiao Xiu Zhi wasn't stingy and distributed the meal leftover to everyone and told them to take them back.

Everyone grinned until one can only see their teeth and not their eyes. They all praised Qiao Xiu Zhi for knowing how to socialise.

Qiao's old house had been noisy for a day. Now it was finally quiet.

Qiao Hong Mei sat in the main room with her legs crossed. After eating, she had always been in this position. Treating herself as an honored guest and never thought of reaching out to help.

Qiao Xiu Zhi walked in and stated with a cold face, "The banquet is over, you can go!"

Qiao Hong Mei's face pulled down at once. She jumped up and said, "Is there a mother like you?"

"I, Qiao Xiu Zhi, have always been worthy of the word 'conscience'. I treat others how others treat me!" Qiao Xiu Zhi indifferently responded.

A family of five people came over to eat and take. And she didn't even bring back a fart!

This can be dropped. On such day, everyone in the family was so busy. While she didn't want to help at all. Did she really think she was an emperor?

Qiao Hong Mei was so angry that her whole face turned red!

She took a deep breath and spoke, "Mom, I'm not here to quarrel with you this time. I want to borrow some money from you. The state-run hotel is going to raise funds to build a housing. We are short some money."

Qiao Xiu Zhi asked, "Then how much do you want to borrow?"

Qiao Hong Mei thought that her mom agreed and her face instantly became better: "Not much, just... three hundred yuan. We will definitely pay this money back!"

Her man only asked her to come back with 200 yuan. However, her mom's attitude was so abhorrent. So when the words came out of her lips, she changed it to 300 yuan.

As for repaying the money, that was impossible. It will be impossible in this life.

Qiao Xiu Zhi laughed: "You don't look very pretty, but you think too prettily! Don't say three hundred yuan, there's not even three yuan. Take your children and leave now!"

"Mom!" Qiao Hong Mei was so furious that her face turned red and white. Her chest heaved heavily.

Qiao Xiu Zhi said: "You have known my character very well since you were a child. If I say no, it means no. You'd better leave now, or else you'll be driven out later. Then it will be ugly!"

After speaking, she turned around and walked out of the main room.

If other people saw the mother and daughter made such a fuss, their eyes and jaws would fall to the ground.

In the past, Qiao Xiu Zhi wanted to correct this daughter. But at the beginning, in order to get married, Qiao Hong Mei mentioned everywhere about her parent's biased. Later, for the dowry of 200 yuan, she would put up an act of committing suicide at home every day.

At that time, Xue Chuan happened to be in poor health. For this daughter, he was so infuriated that he couldn't get out of bed.

For the peace of the family, Qiao Xiu Zhi gritted her teeth and gave her a dowry of 200 yuan and sent her out of the house.

Less than three months later, Xue Chuan was suddenly seriously ill and went to the hospital. The family had little savings. She asked old Fifth to borrow money from Qiao Hong Mei. At that time, Qiao Hong Mei said that she had no money and in the end she didn't give a penny!

From that time on, she gave up on this daughter!

Watching the decisive, departing back of her mom, Qiao Hong Mei was so mad that she wanted to kill!

B*tch! B*tch! B*tch!

Dare to treat her like this? It's best for them to not to let her catch weakness, otherwise don't blame her for killing her relatives for righteous!

Once again, Qiao Hong Mei jumped up and left Qiao's old house with a dark face.

Halfway on the road, she saw a little sedan car approaching as it head for Qili Village.

She was very curious. Someone who can afford to drive such a car must have a not-so-simple identity.

Just who in Qili Village have such relatives?

She thought about it for a long time, but couldn't think of a reason.

The car drove away into the distance. She was looking back while walking, when Chen Zhao Di's voice suddenly reached her ear: "Mom, watch your feet!"

Sadly, it was too late!

She stepped on the air with one foot and her whole body was flew toward the ground: "Aiya, f*ck!"

"BOOM!"

Her face hit the ground heavily. The bridge of her nose was almost broken. The pain made her cry on the spot.

She propped up and sat up. Chen Zhao Di and the others called out: "Mom, you're bleeding!"

She reached out and touched it. Suddenly a sound of pig slaughter rang out!

The car drove into Qili Village .The villagers' eyes widened.

The window of the car rolled down and someone asked the passerby, "Excuse me, how do you get to Qiao's house?"
