Chapter 80: Suddenly Remembering Meng Taohua (Three Watches)
Finally, when Tian Zhigao saw his father for the last time, the next day, Tian Agui was carried up the mountain.
The production team sent someone to help as usual, and it was over in half a day.
Tian Zhigao came back from the mountain, Xian Fangfang immediately asked him to take her back to the city, Tian Zhigao said: Not yet, according to the custom, they should stay at home for seven days, they eat public meals differently, at least three days.
When Xian Fangfang heard that she was going to stay in this dilapidated house for two more nights, she immediately stopped doing it, and made a noise that she had to leave today: this countryside is dirty, there is no running water, no electric light, no toilet, and bed bugs and fleas, she was itchy last night and couldn't sleep well, and there was nothing to eat, her stomach was so hungry that her legs cramped in the middle of the night, and if she didn't leave, she would die!
Tian Zhigao once again exerted his tender offensive, whispering softly to comfort and coax Xian Fangfang.
Wang Shuifeng saw that her most valued and beloved third son, who had been so proud, confident, smart and promising, but at this moment she whispered in front of a woman, and almost knelt down and begged, she was really distressed, but she knew that there was no way, the third son was now in a bad position, and he had to rely on the daughter-in-law's maiden family in the city to stand up again and restore his original official position!
All of this is to blame on that hateful Meng Taohua!
Wang Shuifeng gritted his teeth, eager to be a puppet and pierce the needle to curse Meng Taohua to death.
Wang Shuifeng thought about it, now these people in the family, including herself, are all haggard and shabby, and the daughter-in-law in the city is definitely not happy to look at it, usually the youngest daughter Tian Yalan can dress up and have a few good clothes to see people, but unfortunately she lived in the commune health center again, so she had to call the fourth daughter-in-law Du Meiqiu, make something delicious and send it over, Du Meiqiu is the new daughter-in-law, it is clean and tidy, maybe the third daughter-in-law does not dislike it, and can eat it.
Although Du Meiqiu is also pregnant, she can't take care of it too much now, and the daughter-in-law in this city is more expensive.
When Du Meiqiu heard her mother-in-law tell her to make noodles and fried eggs for her third sister-in-law in the city, she was unwilling, and she was still happy. However, I thought that in the future, I and Tian Zhiyuan would rely on my third brother and sister-in-law to work in the city, so I put down my dissatisfaction, followed Wang Shuifeng to the kitchen, and went to the house with a bowl of egg noodles, persuaded Xian Fangfang to eat with a warm smile, and sat next to Xian Fangfang to chat.
Wang Shuifeng took the opportunity to signal Tian Zhigao to go out, and the mother and son brothers could talk and get rid of Xian Fangfang for a while, so it was easy and relaxed.
Xian Fangfang saw that it was Du Meiqiu who delivered the meal, the young daughter-in-law's hair was neatly combed, and the clothes she wore were also clean, even the pair of dishes and chopsticks handed over seemed to be cleaner than yesterday's, so she tasted it with confidence, the noodles tasted weird, the salt was heavy and the oil was less, so unpalatable!
If it weren't for being too hungry, Xian Fangfang really couldn't eat, and reluctantly, she only ate half a bowl and stopped eating.
There is a little food in the stomach, the whole person is relaxed, and he will think of things a little farther away, Xian Fangfang looked at Du Meiqiu, who was dressed very well, and suddenly remembered Meng Taohua, who was also the daughter-in-law of the Tian family...... Eh, wasn't Meng Taohua Tian Zhigao's child daughter-in-law before? Why can Du Meiqiu wear good clothes, Meng Taohua went to the provincial capital, and still wore pants with patches on her knees?
She did it on purpose, right? deliberately made a fuss to make people pay attention to her, so that Tian Zhigao was blamed by his co-workers and colleagues - this bad-eyed woman!
Xian Fangfang thought about it, and asked unconsciously: "That peach blossom, still lives in this village, right?" ”
Du Meiqiu paused for a moment, but she didn't expect Xian Fangfang to ask about Meng Taohua, nodded and replied: "Yes, her family is originally from this village, and it is in the west." ”
"She's not married?"
"No, I don't. In our countryside, it is difficult for a woman like her who is rejected by her in-laws to remarry, and if she wants to marry, she can only marry the kind of dead wife or the old bachelor who is too poor to marry. But Meng Taohua is a little different, she has eight educated youths living in her home, teaching her to learn culture every day, and the daughter of the vice president of the commune is good with her...... Peach Blossom is proud now, I heard that she also recognized a relative in the provincial capital, very rich, sent her packages every day, and the cadres of the brigade supported her, so she may not be afraid of not being able to marry, maybe she can marry a commune cadre or something in the future - that, I heard people, the wife of the vice president of the commune is making a matchmaker for Peach Blossom. ”
Du Meiqiu told the truth, she went to the river to wash her clothes that day, and heard a group of mothers-in-law and mothers talking about Meng Taohua's marriage, saying that there were people in the village and other villages who wanted to propose marriage to Peach Blossom, and after Aunt Yang knew about it, they all rejected it for Peach Blossom, saying that Peach Blossom would definitely be able to marry a good family in the future, she and her old Zhou were watching, everyone didn't have to worry about it.
Xian Fangfang pursed her lips, every time she thought of Meng Taohua's arrogant appearance of forcing her and Tian Zhigao to take money, she felt very uncomfortable, and snorted secretly: Want to marry a commune cadre? Even if she marries a county cadre, it's not all rural, what good people are willing to want her?!
"Meng Taohua also looks like that, her skin is dark and thick, she has no figure, you are ten times better looking than her, she can marry a commune cadre, do you believe it?" Xian Fangfang raised her eyebrows and asked Du Meiqiu.
Du Meiqiu was embarrassed: "Third sister-in-law, you praise me, I'm not as good-looking as you." ”
Xian Fangfang: "......"
By the way, you take it seriously? Will it focus on the key points?
I had to ask again: "Is it still raining?" I'm also bored in the house, why don't you take me to Meng Taohua's house." ”
"What are you going to do at Meng Taohua's house?"
Du Meiqiu looked at Xian Fangfang in surprise, she is still a new daughter-in-law, usually a new daughter-in-law does not go out to wander around the village easily, she is afraid of being watched and made fun of, not to mention the ugly ...... Du Meiqiu really has no face and confidence to go around in Linshui Village at present.
Seeing Du Meiqiu's unhappy and reluctant appearance, Xian Fangfang suddenly disliked it and waved her hand: "Forget it, I'll just talk about it casually, you can go." ”
Du Meiqiu packed up the dishes and chopsticks and left, Xian Fangfang sat for a while, and when she saw that Tian Zhigao didn't come back to accompany her, she couldn't help but feel angry in her heart, and opened the door and went out by herself in anger.
Where is Tian Zhigao? He talked about family affairs with Wang Shuifeng, Tian Xianglan, Tian Baoshan, and Tian Zhiyuan, worried that Xian Fangfang would be unhappy when he saw it, so he hid in the backyard to talk.
Du Meiqiu entered the kitchen, Zhao Liulian led the two little girls in the house, and there were only a few girls from Tian Xianglan in the yard, squatting on the verandah to choose vegetables, one by one, they were dirty, Xian Fangfang avoided them in disgust, and there was no sound when the leather shoes stepped on the mud, so she walked out of the courtyard of the Tian family.
As soon as she left, the girls looked at each other, and immediately got up and ran into the open house, and easily found a net of apples and pears and canned biscuits, which they had seen yesterday, but they didn't expect the third uncle and the third aunt to give them something to eat, and it was all theirs!
The canned food and biscuits were opened and half eaten, and they didn't dislike it, so they all took it away!
Xian Fangfang was stuffy in the house for two days, came out to breathe fresh air, it felt really good, there was no rain at the moment, the road in the village was different from the road outside, it was paved with large and small stone slabs, although it was rugged, but it was not muddy, just walk carefully.
The sound of leather shoes attracted the two children to follow her curiously, Xian Fangfang would also tackle the problem, took out a handful of fruit candy from her pocket, asked them for directions, and said that she was here to find Meng Taohua, and the two children took the candy and sent her directly to the door of Meng Tao's house with great professional ethics.
