Chapter Twenty-Four: Asking for an Explanation

Mrs. Zhang pouted and said: "The son of the Zhang family is a cripple, half of his body is paralyzed, where is the daughter-in-law of the Zhang family, it is clear that he wants to find someone to take care of him, otherwise how can the crippled son survive after the old couple dies?" ”

What? The Su family was dumbfounded, He Qinqin and her mother were going to marry her to a cripple?

Su Qingyun frowned, with the education she had received, she felt a little uncomfortable when she heard about such an arranged marriage.

"That's too much, isn't it?" Qin Ying said with a frown.

Su Congjun stood up suddenly, "Qinqin won't want to marry him!" No, I'll have to go find her! He pulled his legs and wanted to run out.

"Stop! You're not allowed to go anywhere! Wu Guixiang stopped him, "What are you going to do with her?" Her mother even accepted the bride price, which is already a sure thing! ”

"Yes, join the army, don't be angry, there are more good girls in these ten miles and eight towns, and I will find you a better one than Qinqin."

Su Congjun sat down dejectedly, Li Xiulian felt sorry for her son, and asked Mrs. Zhang, "Aunt Zhang, the He family covets the eighty yuan bride price, don't you know the situation of our army?" ”

When the army goes to work in the city, eighty yuan is nothing, and it will be earned back in a few months, if He is a greedy person, there is no reason not to let the army be a cash cow.

"His nephew, you're on the point." Mrs. Zhang smiled contemptuously, "Then the He family doesn't know anything about the recent situation in our Luoshui Village, but they don't know anything about your Su family." "If I knew, I'm afraid I would have pulled it up a long time ago.

No wonder, it's not that the Su family themselves put gold on their faces, recently, the attitude of the whole village towards the Su family is so good, one by one, they come to inquire about their relationship with the town and county.

"I asked the He family, and she said she wouldn't regret it, and my wife didn't say anything, so as not to annoy people."

"Aunt Zhang, you're doing the right thing." Wu Guixiang sneered, "The He family looks down on us, and we don't have to catch up with the Su family!" ”

"Milk, I can't watch Qinqin marry that kind of man." Su Congjun was in a hurry, and he liked He Qinqin.

Zhang Xinlan pursed her lips secretly, and asked her to say, it's okay if this family business doesn't work, so the He family is so snobbish, if they become in-laws, they don't know how much benefit it will take to pull their Su family?

"Mother, why don't we go and ask in person, I also like the girl Qinqin, and she herself must not want to marry, and they all say that they would rather demolish ten temples than regret a marriage." Li Xiulian said to Wu Guixiang that she couldn't see the girl her son liked marrying someone else.

Wu Guixiang looked at Su Congjun with a sad face, she didn't hurt this eldest grandson, half a sound, she gritted her teeth, "Okay, I'll go in person, I don't believe that the He family doesn't give an explanation." ”

"Milk, I want to go too." Su Qingyun hurriedly said.

Qin Ying pulled her back and glared at her, "What are you doing as a big girl?" Don't go. ”

"Your mother is right, the little girl can't follow to get married." Wu Guixiang nodded, "Okay, Xiulian and I will go with the army, it's still early, it's too late." ”

"By the way, he Aunt Zhang, I have to trouble you to come with us, don't worry, no matter whether this trip can be made or not, I promise to pay you a lot of five yuan."

This dare is good! Mrs. Zhang suddenly smiled so much that she couldn't see her teeth, or the Su family would behave in a good way, and the conditions were good, the He family was really blind.

"Cheng, I'll go with you again, and I'll talk about it."

"Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, Aunt Zhang." Su Congjun turned his worries into joy and hurriedly thanked him.

The four of them hurriedly went to He's house in Changxiu Village, and the rest of the Su family stayed at home to wait for news, the family was looking forward to it, it was dark before they came back, and Mrs. Zhang had already gone home, and there were only three Su Congjun's ancestors and grandchildren.

The faces of the three of them were darker than the other, comparable to the dark and dreary sky outside.

The Su family glanced at each other, and already had a premonition in their hearts, Su Aiguo pulled his wife and said hurriedly: "Tell me quickly, what's going on?" ”

"What else could it be!" Wu Guixiang's face sank like water, "This family business is stopped, and you are not allowed to mention it again!" ”

Su Congjun didn't say anything this time, and he didn't say anything like He Qinqin not marrying.

Li Xiulian sighed and said: "The attitude of the He family is really too much, we have gone all the way, not to mention that the water has not given us a sip to drink, even the door will not let us in, and the army will not be able to see Qinqin." ”

"Before we could mention the family matter, we said that He Qinqin had already made an appointment with that kid from the Zhang family, and he was driving people out of his words."

"What? This is simply too indifferent to our Su family, what do they treat us for? The Su Ai Party said angrily.

"It's okay if you can't make it, it's a lot of things to become this He family." Su Dalin, the head of the Su family, finally said something.

"But it's not, even if they regret it in the future, they won't be able to come back to us!" Wu Guixiang said hatefully.

She looked at the sad Su Congjun and said with relief: "In the army, it's okay, you can go to work in the city with peace of mind, and your milk will pay attention to you again, and I will find you a good girl." ”

"I see, Milk." Su Congjun nodded, although it still looked very low, but it was obviously put down.

He and He Qinqin have only met twice, and they don't have deep feelings, the He family looks down on him and regrets this family business, he also has self-esteem, and it is impossible to come to the door again and again to humiliate himself.

"Alright, alright, let's eat, second daughter-in-law, bring the food." Wu Guixiang waved her hand and said, she was tired after walking such a long way.

The family began to eat around the table, and from time to time they said a few words to the He family, and Su Qingyun was a little distracted holding the bowl.

"Yunyun, what's wrong?" Qin Ying looked at her with concern.

"It's nothing, mother, I just think He Qinqin is quite pitiful." Su Qingyun said in a low voice, in this era, even his own marriage and lifelong happiness cannot be in his own hands, it is really sad and pitiful.

Qin Ying paused, looked at her white and tender little face, and looked gentle, "Our family Yunyun will not encounter this kind of thing, in the future, as long as you like it, as long as there is no problem with that person's character, my father and mother will not object." ”

"Yes, Bao'er, the milk of the person you want to marry in the future must be checked personally." Wu Guixiang said categorically, "If you dare to treat you badly, the milk will directly raise a knife and kill it." ”

"Mother, milk, what do you say?" Su Qingyun couldn't cry or laugh, and said that the matter of the eldest brother was talked about and it was pulled to her.

She put down the bowl, held one in one hand, and smiled with crooked eyebrows, "I will accompany you in the future, and I will not go anywhere." ”

"What nonsense!" Although Wu Guixiang was disgusted, the smile on her face was getting bigger and bigger, and her Bao'er knew that she was uncomfortable now and deliberately made her happy!

The He family in Changxiu Village over there, after sending away a few members of the Su family, the He family breathed a sigh of relief, she had also heard of the murderous name of the old lady of the Su family, she was just afraid that they would make trouble, but she didn't expect to leave so interestingly.

Thinking of the eighty yuan bride price, He's heart was hot, and his face was wrinkled with a smile, and He's father, who came back from work, saw the smile on her face, and said strangely: "What's so good about you?" Mi Cheng is like this. ”

"What better could there be?" He said with a smile, "Now nothing good is better than the relationship between Qinqin and the Zhang family." ”

Father He paused, his face was a little hesitant, he looked at the closed door of He Qinqin's room, and hesitated: "Child, you say, is it ...... for us to do this?"

"Alright, alright, don't tell me anything else." He Shi waved his hand impatiently, "My door is all for the good of Qinqin, just under the conditions of the Zhang family, isn't it a blessing for her to marry in?" ”

"But we only have such a daughter." Father He was still a little reluctant in his heart.

"Just because we only have this one daughter, we have to think about it, we don't have a son to support us, what should we do when we are old and can't do work in the future? Is it okay not to let Qinqin marry a good in-law? ”

Father He was silent, so he had to shut up.

The two began to eat, and He resolutely did not allow Father He to call He Qinqin out to eat.

"When she figures it out, when will she come out again."

She deliberately raised her voice, but there was no reaction in He Qinqin's room.

After eating, Father He was worried about his daughter, so he took the key, served a bowl of rice, and entered He Qinqin's room under He's gaze.

Looking at his daughter lying on the bed crying silently, Father He sighed and put the bowl on the cabinet at the head of the bed.

"Qinqin, don't blame us, that kid from the Su family is good, but they have many families, and the conditions are indeed not as good as the Zhang family, I only have one daughter with your mother, and I can only rely on you for the rest of my life, and we will be fine if you marry well."

Father He's helpless words made He Qinqin's tears even more fierce, and she turned her back to prevent Father He from seeing her face.

Father He was silent for a while, but still went out.

The sound of the lock sounded, and He Qinqin covered her face in the quilt and cried bitterly.

After another two days, Su Congjun finally packed up his mood and was about to go to work in the city, the whole Su family was beaming, and even Zhang Xinlan, who was originally angry, had a little more joy on her face.

The county is far away, Su Congjun left, and he could only come back every other day, he packed up his things and deliberately put on his neatest clothes.

"Yes, looking like a city person!" Su Aiguo gave a thumbs up.

Li Xiulian was worried, "In the army, you have to work hard in the factory, follow the master to study hard, and strive to become a regular as soon as possible, remember, you must not embarrass our Su family, your job represents more than just yourself, understand?" ”

"I know, mother, don't worry." Su Congjun was full of spirit, "Grandpa, grandma, you can rest assured." ”

"Let's go." Su Aimin said.

After all, Su Congjun was able to enter the steel factory because of his relationship with Su Qingyun, and on the first day he went, Su Aimin accompanied him.

Watching the two go out, Su Qingyun smiled meaningfully, her father couldn't wait to make another profit.
