Adored Koi in the ’70s

Chapter 95

Since the death of old Madam Wang and Wang Xin Sheng, old Mister Wang had been in a bad state. In addition, Third Son refused to bring his grandson back last time. He became more and more depressed.

This morning, the sky was overcast with only a silver-white light shining from the distant horizon. The dragonflies and swallows in the vicinity flew very low. It seemed that there would be a heavy rain soon.

Wang Shui Sheng carried breakfast to his dad's room, but the door was locked from the inside. No one responded when he called out a few times.

Liu Cui Hua came over and spoke, "Dad's health has been getting worse and worse recently. Why don't you take him to the town hospital later?"

Wang Shui Sheng sighed and replied, "I persuaded him before. He said that he wasn't sick and didn't want to go with me."

After calling a few more times, there was still no movement inside. The two realized that something was wrong.

Something popped in Wang Shui Sheng's mind and his face was pale. He handed the breakfast to Liu Cui Hua before stepping forward and kicked the door.

The wooden door wasn't very strong. It collapsed after a few kicks.

He quickly rushed in. The sight of old Mister Wang collapsed sideway on the ground entered his eyes. He had been out of breath for a long time.

Wang Shui Sheng's eyes instantly turned red. He chokingly yelled, "Dad!"

Seeing this, Liu Cui Hua's face also turned pale. She hastily put the things aside.

With such a big commotion, the other two branches also heard. Soon, Wang's house sounded wail one after another.

When the people around heard the movement, they hurried overwithout even properly dressing. Only after inquiring did they know that old Mister Wang was gone.

The crowd sighed at once.

Wang Family had already lost three people in less than a year. The luck was too bad.

However, some people think that it was nothing compared to Fang Family's complete destruction, the death of three members was nothing. What's more, two of them were elderly.

Old Mister Wang was 60 years old this year. Although it wasn't considered an advanced age. In this era, the normal life expectancy wasn't generally high. So everyone gave condolences before leaving.

After Qiao Family knew about it, Qiao Xiu Zhi immediately brought Qiao Hong Xia over to ask Wang Family if they needed help and gave five yuan as a gift.

Wang Family didn't want to accept the money, but Qiao Family insisted that they accept it. Since they couldn't refused to accept, they insisted to on not needing help.

Although Qiao Hong Xia was already engaged to Wang Yan Sheng, they still hadn't had a the banquet yet. Besides, there were many members in Wang Family. There were enough manpower.

After crying for a while, Wang Shui Sheng made a call in the production team office.

Originally, he thought that Third Younger Brother wouldn't be able to come back. After all, he had already asked for leave this year. Unexpectedly, he would catch a ride back tomorrow.

He froze for a moment before quickly acknowledging.

On the way back, he contemplated before deciding to go to Qiao's small house to notifying his future younger sister-in-law, Qiao Hong Xia.

Once Qiao Hong Xia knew the news of Wang Yan Sheng coming back, two red clouds flew up on her cheeks from excitement and anticipation.

Although she and Wang Yan Sheng were engaged for less than half a year, they were very close. After Wang Yan Sheng went to the army, he often wrote to her and sent her things. Not just food and clothing, but also his salary!

She could never have imagined that such a serious person on the surface could write letters that often made her blush.

Thinking of him coming back soon, her heart beated wildly.

...

The sky was gloomy for a whole morning. Every now and then a drop or two of light rain fell. Like it was constipation. Quite an unpleasant drizzle.

Finally, after lunch, there was a loud noise in the sky. Lightning struck and thunder boomed. Then followed by wind and rain.

A scene of autumn rain to coolness. After a burst of heavy rain fall, the weather became a lot cooler.

Da Qiao climbed onto the kang and covered the two younger brothers with a small sheet.

When they were first born, she felt that her younger brother was ugly and smelly with wrinkled skin of an old man. She thought that even if they grew, they wouldn't look as good as little Dong Yun.

Unexpectedly, the more the two small dumplings grew, the better they looked. They were fair and tender. Every time when one look at them, they want to take a bite.

She had moved very carefully; hardly any movement were made. But as soon as she approached, the two little dumplings suddenly woke up.

She reached out and tapped their little faces, "Younger brothers, why are you awake again?"

When the two little dumplings heard her voice, their eyes turned to her. It was unknown if they could see. Anyway, the two little things giggled one after another.

Out of the two small dumplings, elder brother, Qiao An Jie was relatively quiet and rarely cry. While younger brother, Qiao An Xu was a little delicate.

It was fine if there was no one around. If someone was present, he will cry to get their attention. If one ignore him, the fake cry will turn into a real cry.

Seeing that Third Younger Brother was about to fake crying again, Da Qiao hurriedly 'lectured': "Xu Xu, you can't be like this. If you act so delicate, Elder Sister won't like you anymore!"

Lin Hui walked in. Seeing her serious appearance, she couldn't help laughing: "Younger Brother is still young and can't understand what you say. Once they grow up, you teach them okay?"

But a strange incident happened the next moment. After hearing his elder sister's words, the normal delicate bundle actually quieted down, as if he really understood.

He also showed a 'toothless' smile. His appearance was so obedient that it made people soft-hearted.

Lin Hui instantly found strange: "Oh, this little guy can look at his expression at such a young age. What will he be like once he grows up?"

Qiao Hong Xia walked in and nodded in agreement, "I've found out long ago. When these two little guys grow up, they must be Da Qiao's followers too!"

There were already two followers at home and little Wan-er in the old house. Now there were two more. She felt a headache when she thought how a group of children will be sister-con in the future.

Lin Hui imagined it and laughed. She reached out and rubbed Da Qiao's head, "That's cause our Da Qiao is too cute and sensible. It's why younger brothers and younger sisters like her so much!"

Hearing her mom's compliment, Da Qiao blushed with joy. She nodded, "I'm a good elder sister!"

In the past, her biological mom hated her. Her younger sister messed with her. The other children in the village laughed at her. Those days were like a nightmare.

At that time, Da Qiao didn't dare to imagine that one day she would become the group's favorite.

She liked the current life.

The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier. Under an umbrella, old woman made way to the production team. Although she was holding an umbrella in her hand, the rain was so heavy that she was soaked like a chicken in soup.

Behind her, there were two little drowned chickens.

Their whole body was soaked by the rain. Their hair was sticking to their faces, while their trousers were muddy. They looked like a mess.

These three chickens were none other than Qiao Hong Mei's mother-in-law, Mother Chen and Qiao Hong Mei's two daughters Chen Zhao Di and Chen Lai Di.

Halfway there, Mother Chen suddenly stopped and turned around to berate: "You two money-wasting things, hurry up, will ya. Stop dawdling. Do you still want to be beaten?"

Hearing this, Chen Zhao Di shivered: "Grandmother, we aren't dawdling..."

SLAP SLAP!

Before she could finish speaking, she was slapped by Mother Chen. Chen Lai Di next to her was also beaten.

Chen Lai Di was so mad. She felt her elder sister was as stupid as a pig. Why did she talk back at this time?

Chen Zhao Di's eyes were full of tears; immersed in self-pity!

She didn't intend to talk back. She just wanted to explain to her grandmother. They really didn't dawdle on purpose .Why didn't her grandmother believe her?

The trio entered the production team. Soon some people noticed them.

"It's raining so hard. Why are there people outside?"

"Hey, those people look very familiar. They don't seem to be from our production team?"

Once they noticed the strangers entering the production team, everyone came out to holler regardless of the rain: "Who are you? Why did you come to our production team?"

When Mother Chen saw someone, she sobbed out: "I'm Hong Mei's mother-in-law. I came to the production team to find our in-laws..."

But before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted: "What in-laws. Your Hong Mei isn't Qiao Family's daughter. I heard that they had gone to the police station to cut off the relationship. What are you doing here?"

"Yes. Did you specially come here to return Hong Mei's dowry?"

Mother Chen didn't expect the production team to play cards so unconventionally. She hadn't said anything yet and they stood on Qiao Family's. Simple infuriating!

Still the older the ginger, the spicier it was. Compared with Qiao Hong Mei, Mother Chen had a thicker skin: "Hong Mei was raised by Qiao Family since she was young. Why is she not from Qiao Family? Now that Hong Mei murdered and Qiao Family's god-relative is deputy chief, shouldn't I come to look for them?"

When everyone heard "Hong Mei murdered someone", they couldn't care about anything else.

"What happened? Why did Hong Mei kill someone?"

Everyone started to ask questions. Mother Chen refused to say anything. She turned around and continued on to Qiao's house.

Some people's curiosity was piqued. Paying no heed to the terrible weather, they hurriedly headed to Qiao's house after Mother Chen.

Mother Chen came to Qiao's old house. BANG BANG BANG. As she patted the wooden door, she shouted: "In-law, In-law, open the door. Your pitiful daughter Hong Mei is about to die. Hurry up and go see her!"

When someone heard this, they instantly became perplexed: "Didn't you just say that Hong Mei murdered someone? Why is it now Hong Mei is about to die?"

No matter what everyone asked, Mother Chen didn't respond. Her hands hurt. So she got her two granddaughters to hit together.

Even when the hands of the trio were all swollen, Qiao Family didn't open the door!

"In-law! Why are you so cruel!" Mother Chen was really desperate.

This morning, Qiao Hong Mei ran to the state-run restaurant and stabbed Wang Ni-er with scissors. Qiao Hong Mei had already been arrested.

Whether Qiao Hong Mei will be shot or not, she didn't care at all. What she cared about was her son.

Someone's life was gone. It went without saying Chen Xing and Wang Ni-er's affair couldn't be hidden. Chen Xing was arrested on the spot.

So she rushed over because she wanted Qiao Family to come forward and save her son!

Mother Chen's voice was hoarse. She made her two granddaughters cry together. Finally they couldn't take it anymore and the door of Qiao's house opened.

Wan Chun Ju rushed out from the inside with a look of excitement and splashed the contents of the bucket with a 'splat' sound.

As the contents of the bucket were poured out, a foul stench came out.

"Why does it smell so bad?" The onlookers covered their noses in disgust.

Then everyone looked. My goddess. Chen Family's trio's heads were covered with gold.

Some people couldn't help but gag.

Hands on hip, Wan Chun Ju smirked: "This poo is accumulated from my little Dong Yun in the past two days. You benefitted! If you don't leave, I will let the dog out!"

Mother Chen was so pissed that her face turned red and white. Her breath almost didn't come up and she nearly died of anger on the spot!

It was just that her son was still waiting for her to rescue him. She got to get Qiao Family come forward.

However, Qiao Family made up their minds to ignore Chen Family. They had already cut off their relationship. Who would interfere in their bad affairs?

In the end, Chen Family trio were chased out of the production team by Qiao You Rou and Pi Pi.

Mother Chen went back to town crying. Then she saw a police officer who came to inform her; told her to go to the police station to pick up Qiao Hong Mei's corpse.

When Mother Chen heard this, her legs softened. She collapsed to sitting position on the ground: "You said my daughter-in-law died? Why...why so fast?"

"She swallowed iron in prison!" the police officer stated with a blank expression.

No one thought the woman had an iron nugget hidden on her body, let alone that she was so cruel to herself and abruptly swallowed the iron nugget. When the prison guards found out, the woman was passed saving.

It was clear that Qiao Hong Mei was ready to commit suicide before going to the state-run restaurant.

Since Qiao Family cut off their relationship with Qiao Hong Mei, her life in Chen's house had become more and more difficult. Her mother-in-law and her man beat and scolded her every day; saying that she was useless and made such good maternal family connection gone!

Chen Xing wanted to divorce her, but she didn't want to. She said that if he dared to divorce, she would report him. After saying this, she was beaten until bleeding on the spot.

Later, Chen Xing stopped mentioning about the divorce. Instead, he brought Wang Ni-er home from time to time. To outsider, he said Wang Ni-er was the godmother of his children. Outsiders thought it was the truth. Each time, Qiao Hong Mei fumingly gritted her teeth.

Wang Ni-er was too arrogant. Before she divorced Chen Xing, she entered the house and used her as a servant girl. If she didn't disobey, Wang Ni-er would encourage Chen Xing to beat her!

This kind of life made Qiao Hong Mei gloomier day by day.

Pitiful people had something hateful about them. After suffering under her mother-in-law and Chen Xing, she would later vent her anger on her daughters.

Especially Chen Zhao Di, who she disliked the most. The girl had bruises all over her body from her pinch.

Once she wanted to scald her eldest daughter with boiling water. If her mother-in-law hadn't come back earlier, Chen Zhao Di would have died a long time ago.

Since she didn't silently wait to die, she silently ticked like a timebomb.

Finally, after Chen Xing told her that Wang Ni-er was pregnant, Qiao Hong Mei couldn't bear it any longer. Grabbing a scissor, she stormed to the state-run restaurant. Then, without saying a word, she stabbed Wang Ni-er in the belly!

Want to give birth to a son for Chen Xing? Want to squeeze her out of the door of Chen's house?

Dream on!

She knew she won't be able to live after killing Wang Ni-er. So before going out, she hid a thumb-sized iron nugget on her body.

After entering the prison, she swallowed the iron nugget when the prison guards weren't paying attention. When the severe pain came, she regretted it.

There was no regret medicine in the world though.

Whether she regretted about being too selfish toward Qiao Family or committing murder, it was too late.

It took Mother Chen a long time to find her own voice: "What about my son? What will happen to him?"

Who cares if Daughter-in-law died. She was a calamity. She can't lay eggs herself and even killed her precious grandson. This kind of lowly thing should go to hell!

The police officer impatiently uttered: "Go retrieve the corpse first. I don't know about the rest!"

Mother Chen didn't dare to ask any more.

However, because of Qiao Hong Mei's death, the case was also closed. Although Chen Xing had improper relationship, he didn't kill anyone.

After a few days in prison, he was bailed out by Mother Chen with money. His job as a chef was definitely gone.

To make matters worse, he was beaten on a dark and windy night less than two days after he was released from prison!

He was lucky and got rescued by a passerby. However, the man's place was completely gone. He became Eunuch Chen.

In tears, Mother Chen hugged her son. Her son's that place was disabled. Their Chen Family was completely without future!

When Chen Xing was beaten, they called the police on the same day. It was at night when Chen Xing was assaulted. He didn't see the person who beat him. Noe did any one passed by. The case could only be left unresolved.

In fact, Chen Xing knew in his heart who did this, Wang Ni-er's family.

Wang Family lost a daughter. Qiao Hong Mei deserved what she got. But why did that lowly man, Chen Xing go unpunished?

After discussing, Wang Ni-er's two elder brothers cut off Chen Xing's roots during the night. This way, he would never be able to commit sins again!

Chen Xing lost his job and that place was disabled. He either slept or went out to hang out with hooligans all day. Then one night, he came home drunk and accidentally missed a step and fell into the river. He drowned.

Knowing that her only son was dead, Mother Chen didn't catch her breath and passed away too.

The four golden flowers of Chen Family suddenly became orphans. Someone proposed to send the four children to their grandma's house. The police station wanted to implement this idea but was stopped by Shen Shi Kai.

Later, all four golden flowers were sent to the orphanage. They have nothing to do with Qiao Family since then.

Of course, these were all matter of the future.

...

Back to Wang Yan Sheng's side. After he received the call from his eldest brother, he immediately went to ask for leave from Lieutenant General Jiang.

He had just asked for a leave in May. He shouldn't ask for another leave, but he wanted to bid a final goodbye to his dad.

When his parents were alive, his parents had given birthed and raised him despite the slight biased. Now that they were all gone, their brothers were considered completely separated.

From then on, they were only relatives.

Second, he deeply missed Qiao Hong Xia.

Since the moment they separated, he had been thinking about her all the time. So when he went back this time, he wanted to take the opportunity to spend more time with her.

Lieutenant General Jiang approved his leave slip. At the same time, he gave him a task to bring Huo Hua Qing's grandson Huo Chi to the army.

Hearing Lieutenant General Jiang's words, he couldn't help being stunned: "The child is only ten years old. Is it appropriate to come to the army at such a young age? Is it alright with his identity?"

Lieutenant General Jiang said: "Bringing him to the army isn't letting him join the army. He is so young. Even if I want to, can others agree? The child can't keep staying with the production team. Otherwise his life will be ruined!"

Staying in the pigsty of the production team, he can't study or go to school. Although the people in the production team have changed their opinion of them because of their hard work, they can only stay in the pigsty for the rest of their lives as long as they have the identity of wicked ones!

To be able to fight for this position at a young age, Wang Yan Sheng wasn't just ruthless. His brain was also not stupid. He contemplated for a moment before he understood.

His eyebrows raised: "Lieutenant General Jiang want the child to faked his death, right?"

Lieutenant General Jiang nodded and sighed: "I have a distant relative whose son died of illness not long ago. They haven't reported this matter to their community. After I found out, I proposed to let Huo Chi to take their child's place. They agreed."

Of course, he promised a lot of benefits in the process. If not, the other party would definitely not be willing to cooperate.

After listening, Wang Yan Sheng was silent for a while. Then he nodded and replied, "This is also good. That child is smart by nature. It would be a pity if he keep staying in the pigsty!"

Lieutenant General Jiang picked up the enamel cup and took a sip of water: "When the time comes, you can go to my hometown and get the child's identity certificate. Then bring the child to the army. When the time comes, he will be raised in my house."

Lieutenant General Jiang received a lot of help from Huo Hua Qing back then. Over the years, he had always wanted to improve the life and fate of Huo Family. Unfortunately he had limited power and can't do many things.

Wang Yan Sheng nodded in agreement. Afterward, he left the office and prepared to go back to pack his things.

Walking to the family building, he saw a young woman standing by the family building. He came to a halt.

The back was very familiar. It was none other than Dong Li Li.

As if sensing something, Dong Li Li turned around to find Wang Yan Sheng frowning at her. Blushing, she explained, "I-I'm not waiting for you!"

When Wang Yan Sheng heard this, he couldn't help but paused.

He was overthinking?

Dong Li Li said: "My match also lives here. He went up to get something. I'm to wait for him here."

So don't overthink!

Hearing this, a hint of awkwardness finally flashed across Wan Yan Sheng's face.

Just now, he really thought that Dong Li Li was waiting for him. After all, this kind of thing happened often in the past. Although she hadn't done this for a long time after he explained it to her last time.

In midst of the awkwardness, a young man ran downstairs and cheerfully spoke while running: "I'm sorry. I kept you waiting for a long time. Now, this is the book you want."

When Dong Li Li saw her match, she revealed a bright smile, "It's fine. I just waited for a while. I've been looking for this book for a long time. Didn't expect you to have it. Wonderful. I'll return it to you immediately after reading it!"

The young man shook his head. Revealing a set of white teeth on his young face, he spoke: "You don't have to give it back. My things are your things."

As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that his superior was standing behind him.

What a shock!

When he came down just now, he only had his match in his eyes. He couldn't even see a person as tall as Leader Wang!

He quickly stood at attention and gave a military salute: "Greeting Colonel!"

Wang Yan Sheng nodded, walked past them and commented, "Comrade Dong is a good girl. Treat her well!"

The young man gave another military salute. Smiling even more brilliantly, he responded: "Copied that, Colonel!"

Dong Li Li didn't expect Wang Yan Sheng to say such a thing. After being stunned for a while, her nose slightly soured.

She fell in love with Wang Yan Sheng as first sight. Later, she tried every means to get close to him, but he remained indifferent.

She was sad and depressed. Now she was relieved.

The person she liked, even if he didn't like her, was still a person worthy of liking.

His character made her feel that her youth hadn't been let down!

Wang Yan Sheng sourced a ticket on his side, packed his things and left.

Da Qiao didn't know yet that her elder brother Huo Chi was about to part with her soon.
