"Ouch, what do you think is going on with Qiao's family? They divorced one after another, and now only Boss Qiao remains undivorced!"
"You're wrong. The married Qiao Hongmei didn't get divorced, didn't Qiao Xiuzhi and her husband also get divorced?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, I bet on a cucumber, even if all the little ones in the Qiao family are divorced, Qiao Xiuzhi and his wife won't get divorced either! Didn't you see that they were walking hand in hand last time!"
"You are quite old, why do you still do such a thing? Don't they feel ashamed to be seen by the juniors?"
Everyone was talking about another divorce of the Qiao family.
But as they talked, they turned into criticizing Qiao Xiuzhi and Xue Chuan as parents, saying that they didn't educate their children well, and then saying that they still show affection every day at such an age, how shameless!
There are also some people who think that although the Qiao family has a bad reputation after being divorced, they can't stand the more they leave the better.
Look at Qiao's second wife who married Lin Hui after divorce. The new wife is beautiful and virtuous, and the family is harmonious.
If you look at Qiao Hongxia again, you thought that as a divorced broken shoe with a child, she would at most marry an old and ugly widower. Who would have thought that she would actually capture the most promising third son of the Wang family.
Twenty-six-year-old leader, how many unmarried girls have red eyes with jealousy!
Qiao Zhenmin has his own skills and works as a worker in the county. With his skills, he might be able to bring a girl back from the city soon!
Xinghua walked over twisting her waist, and said with a pooh: "I don't care if you want to praise the stinky feet of the Qiao family, but you don't need to hold each other and step on each other. After we left the Qiao family, our sister Xiaojuan also went over and over again." good!"
When Song Jinlai's daughter-in-law heard this, she immediately laughed and cried: "Are you blind? How could Fang Xiaojuan get better? It was not bad to marry into the Wang family before, but I can't bear it. What a strong young man, he was killed within half a year of marriage, tsk tsk tsk!"
Xinghua blushed with anger: "Daughter-in-law Song Jinlai, if you talk nonsense again, be careful that I will tear your stinky mouth apart!"
Song Jinlai's daughter-in-law stuck her waist: "You are tearing it up! I just can't figure it out. What did Fang Xiaojuan feed you to make you so willing to be her running dog?"
Xinghua gritted her teeth with hatred: "Say it, just say it, if you are capable, wait until Miss Xiaojuan marries into the city and becomes an official's wife, so don't join me!"
What? !
Fang Xiaojuan is going to marry into the city and become an official's wife
Xinghua is talking nonsense, right
Although Fang Xiaojuan looks good, she has been married twice after all. If Qiao Hongxia is a broken shoe, then Fang Xiaojuan is a broken shoe among broken shoes!
Which official man would be so overwhelmed by it, but just set his sights on a broken shoe
Everyone quickly pulled Xinghua to inquire about the news.
"Do you still remember the male educated youth named Meng Hongguang who came to the production team?"
Xinghua was surrounded by everyone, her chin was raised, she was so proud that she was going to marry into the city and become an official's wife!
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and soon someone patted their thighs to react.
"Remember, why don't you remember? At the beginning, he and Fang Xiaojuan flirted with each other, thinking that they were going to get married, but who knew that when they returned to the city, there would be no news immediately! Why, is it Fang Xiaojuan who is going to marry him?"
Xinghua nodded triumphantly: "It's Meng Zhiqing, who is now the secretary of the deputy director of the Shanghai Urban Construction Bureau. Apart from the mayor, the Urban Construction Bureau is the second in command of the Shanghai Stock Exchange, and Meng Zhiqing is the secretary of the deputy director. How many people are there? Even if you want to curry favor with him, you can't curry favor with him! How can a man like this be no better than a guard dog?"
Qiao Zhenjun went to the food factory in the town to work as a guard, but at this time he became a guard dog in Xinghua's mouth.
The villagers actually don't know anything about the so-called Urban Construction Bureau, but it's a big city, and it's the deputy director's secretary.
Someone with a quick brain immediately flattered and said: "My God, he is actually the deputy director's secretary. Meng Zhiqing is really capable! When I saw him back then, I knew he was a young man with a bright future. , how do you say now, does he really want to marry Fang Xiaojuan?"
Someone said sourly: "Is this impossible? Since Meng Zhiqing is so capable, why did he go back to the countryside to find a wife? Doesn't he like any girls in the city?"
These days, not to mention the people in the city, even the people in the town will not easily find a girl from the country. Even if the educated Meng wants to find a wife from the country, there are many unmarried girls around, so why must Fang Xiaojuan be there
Xinghua proudly said: "This is Meng Zhiqing's kindness and righteousness. He said that when he came to our production team, if Xiaojuan hadn't helped him secretly, he would have been unable to survive. This is also because of Xiaojuan's foresight. There are so many male educated youths, and she does not help anyone, but Meng Zhiqing, so you are not envious!"
Everyone was really envious, why didn't they help Meng Zhiqing back then
If they had given money back then, they would be the ones who will repay their favor now!
Some people are still dissatisfied: "Meng Zhiqing should be 29 years old this year, right? He shouldn't be married at such an age!"
Xinghua said: "Meng Zhiqing married a girl from the city under the arrangement of her family after returning home. That woman was not blessed. She died within two years of marriage. Afterwards, Meng Zhiqing raised her son alone and never married again until this time. When we met Miss Xiaojuan on a business trip here, I remembered the beauty of the past, and immediately decided to marry Miss Xiaojuan!"
"Oh, this is the fate of the two of them!"
"It's not like I said Xiaojuan is a lucky person before, but the blessing is coming now?"
No matter what everyone thought, but after knowing Meng Zhiqing's identity, no one made sarcastic comments anymore.
Some people wanted to establish a good relationship with Fang Xiaojuan before she left, so after they dispersed, many people went to visit Fang Xiaojuan with eggs or snacks.
The thatched hut that no one used to go there suddenly became the most popular place for the production team.
By the time the last group of people had left, the sky had completely darkened.
Fang Xiaojuan glanced at the table full of things, and asked Xiao Qiao, "Have you made up your mind? Do you want to go to the Shanghai Stock Exchange with me?"
Fang Xiaojuan didn't have much affection for Xiao Qiao's daughter.
She originally wanted to leave Xiao Qiao to the Qiao family this time, and then go to the city alone, but Meng Hongguang liked Xiao Qiao very much and asked her to take him there no matter what.
Although she didn't understand why Meng Hongguang took a fancy to Xiao Qiao, but in order to please him, she naturally agreed.
Xiao Qiao sat in the corner, candlelight shone on her recently fleshy face: "Okay."
She originally thought that if Fang Xiaojuan remarried, she would take the opportunity to go back to Qiao's house, but after meeting Meng Hongguang once, she changed her mind.
Meng Hongguang is gentle and gentle, and he is very temperamental. More importantly, he is very capable. He can be the secretary of the deputy director before he is 30 years old. When the reform and opening up in the future, he will definitely seize the opportunity!
Besides, his registered permanent residence is in the Shanghai stock market. Even if he doesn't do business, if he uses the money to buy some dilapidated buildings, he will be very rich in the future when they are demolished, so she can't let go of such a good opportunity!
Fang Xiaojuan breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the words, but she warned: "Since you choose to go with me, then you have to listen to me. Only when I get well can you live a good life with me, understand?"
Xiao Qiao curled her mouth and said, "Don't worry, we are on the same boat, and I won't hold you back."
All you should worry about is yourself not being stupid!
But she didn't say that.
—
It was the dog days, and the weather was getting hotter and hotter. Knowing that she was barking in the trees outside, it was annoying.
Qiao Zhenmin brought back a lot of local specialties this time, including a sea vegetable called Haishihua.
After boiling and cooling, the sea stone flower will form a transparent jelly-like thing, cut into pieces, and poured with sugar water or honey, it can become a very delicious snack.
At this moment, Da Qiao brought out the cut stone flower jelly, and said softly to her mother: "Uncle Wu said that this food is relatively cold, mom, you can only eat a small bowl a day!"
Lin Hui's stomach has been around for more than six months, and it is extremely big. In addition to the hot weather, she sweats all over her body every time she moves, which is very hard.
Da Qiao saw that her mother was having such a hard time conceiving a child, she couldn't help her, so she could only make some delicious food for her from time to time.
Lin Hui smiled softly and said, "Mom knows, so I'll just eat a small bowl. The weather is so hot, so don't run around, come and sit down by Mom's side."
Da Qiao smiled with crooked eyebrows, picked up another bowl of stone flower jelly and sat down next to her mother.
Seeing that her cheeks were flushed from the heat, Lin Hui took out a handkerchief and wiped her sweat before eating her bowl.
Although Da Qiao is not her own daughter, in her heart, she is more dear to her than her own. She still can't understand why Fang Xiaojuan doesn't like such a well-behaved and sensible child.
The news that Fang Xiaojuan was going to marry in the Shanghai stock market was known to the entire production team, and naturally some gossip people came to tell the Qiao family.
After the Qiao family found out, they finally understood why Fang Xiaojuan was so low-key during this period of time. It turned out that she had climbed a high branch!
Fang Xiaojuan has already announced that she will take Xiao Qiao to the Shanghai stock market in the middle of next month.
From here to the Shanghai stock market, it takes seven days and seven nights by car. In other words, Fang Xiaojuan probably won't come back after this trip.
Lin Hui glanced at Da Qiao, who was enjoying herself, and thought about it for a while and said, "Da Qiao, do you know about your mother's remarriage?"
Da Qiao blinked her long eyelashes, nodded slightly and said, "Got it."
Lin Hui put down the old porcelain bowl, and said softly, "Do you want...to meet her? If you want to go, mom will accompany you there."
Her mother told her before that she should not let Da Qiao get in touch with her own mother, because she was afraid that if she had too many children, she would not be able to support her. In the end, it was a waste of time.
She hesitated, but finally decided to give the choice to Da Qiao herself.
Da Qiao looked down at the transparent rock jelly in the bowl, was silent for a while, shook his head and said, "I won't go."
In the past, she always couldn't understand why her mother didn't like her. No matter how she tried to please her, it was useless. At that time, she was very sad, but now she is not sad.
She has the best grandparents, parents who love her, and so many brothers and sisters who love her, so it doesn't matter whether her mother likes her or not, and she doesn't need it anymore.
If you don't go, you don't go, who knows if you will be scolded if you go to see him
Lin Hui reached out and rubbed her fluffy little head, and said softly, "Your hair is getting longer and longer, go and get the comb, and mom will make you a centipede braid."
Da Qiao regained his energy immediately, put down the old porcelain bowl, and ran to the room to get the comb with a "dongdongdong".
After braiding her hair, Da Qiao went to look for Huo Chi's brother with Shihua jelly.
The last time Wang Yansheng proposed to replant Chinese herbal medicine, only eight households in the entire production team replanted, and many people kept a wait-and-see attitude.
Although there are not many people who have replanted, the life of the Huo family is much easier than before. Now not only Huo Chi can walk around in the production team at will, but Huo Huaqing and Dai Shufang are also allowed.
The villagers who replanted have a much more polite attitude towards their family than before. There is extra food at home, and occasionally they will secretly give it to their family to eat. The Huo family is very grateful for this change.
When he came to the private plot, Da Qiao called out to Huo Chi who was squatting on the ground with his butt up to check the wolfberry saplings: "Brother Huo Chi, I brought you something to eat, come up quickly."
After discussion, Huo Huaqing suggested that the villagers grow wolfberries.
Lycium barbarum is full of treasures. Not only the leaves can be made into vegetables to eat, but also medicinal and edible. Its root bark can be used as medicine to relieve cough, and its seed oil can be made into lubricating oil or edible oil. It really serves multiple purposes.
It's just that they decided a little late and missed the best germination time in spring. After they sowed the seeds during this time, the Huo family almost put all their attention on it.
Fortunately, they were not bad luck. The seeds they planted have sprouted one after another, and now they have grown into palm-high saplings, but they are still very fragile, so Huo Chi will come here every day.
Da Qiao looked at the green saplings in the private plot, with a mouthful of small teeth showing in his small mouth.
She didn't tell anyone that she had secretly watered the seeds with water from jade beads, so these seeds germinated so fast and the survival rate was so high.
Hearing Da Qiao's voice, Huo Chi quickly patted the dirt on his body and ran over, "The weather is so hot, so don't run around, and don't cry if you get sunburned!"
Da Qiao took out a bowl of stone flower jelly from the basket, snorted coldly and said, "You're the one crying, I can't even get a tan!"
Huo Chi looked at her white and tender face, like a shelled egg, many people would get dark circles in summer, but she didn't change at all.
"Well, you really can't get a tan," he nodded, and then noticed her new hairstyle, "You got a new hairstyle?"
Da Qiao shook her head and said, "Yes, my mother helped me braid my hair. Brother Huo Chi, do you think I look so good-looking? I think I am pretty!"
"Pffff—"
"Sister Da Qiao, why are you so stinky every day?" Qiao Dongying grinned from nowhere, grinning with white teeth.
Da Qiao pouted with a small red mouth: "But I'm just good-looking. Grandpa and grandma both say I'm the prettiest. Brother Huo Chi, do you think I'm pretty?"
Seeing her stinky fart, Huo Chi thought it was funny and amusing, but he couldn't bear to let her down: "Well, it's not bad."
Qiao Dongying secretly rolled her eyes when she heard this.
It's these people who always pamper sister Da Qiao without the bottom line, which makes her become such a stinky fart!
Anping also followed, and the canned oranges in his hand contained a lot of cicada monkeys: "Sister Da Qiao, so you are here, do you want to go catch cicada monkeys with us?"
Da Qiao shook his head: "I have to go back and teach my younger brothers and sisters to read. By the way, cousin, you haven't come to class for many days. If your grades fall back when school starts, be careful that uncle will beat your ass!"
Anping scratched his head and said, "Aren't I busy catching cicada monkeys? Sister Daqiao, didn't you say last time that salt and pepper cicada monkeys are more delicious than cold salad cicada monkeys? I caught a lot today, and you can help me later. I'll make it, please please!"
For Anping, as long as he can eat delicious food, he will admit it even if he is beaten up!
Da Qiao said with a white and tender face, "Success, but you will come to me to make up lessons tomorrow, understand? If you don't go, I will be rude to you!"
Anping thought of sister Da Qiao's impoliteness, shivered all over, nodded quickly and said: "Okay, okay, I will go to make up lessons tomorrow, please be polite to me!"
Qiao Dongying couldn't help rolling her eyes again seeing her younger brother's unpromising look.
—
Qiao's family was not affected by Qiao Zhenmin's divorce, but Qiao Zhenjun was unlucky.
At noon that day, he was called to the office by the factory manager.
Qiao Zhenjun was a little uneasy. He had been in the factory for almost two months, but the factory manager had never seen him in private, so why would he call him to the office this time.
He knocked on the door of the office, and the director's deep voice came from inside: "Come in."
Qiao Zhenjun walked in, rubbed his hands together and said, "Director, did you ask me to come over for something?"
Factory Manager Nie glanced at him, shook his head, then opened the drawer, took out an envelope from inside, pushed it over and said, "This is your salary for this month, and you will be compensated for an extra half a month, take it back and pack it up." Let's go, you don't have to come to work from tomorrow!"
Qiao Zhenjun was like thunder: "Director, can I, can I ask why?"
He knows that he is not smart enough to be troublesome, and his mouth is not sweet enough, so during this period of time, he has worked harder than anyone else. People don’t like night shifts, so he will take the initiative to take the initiative. If colleagues need anything, he will do his best. help.
He didn't dare to say that he was the best worker, but he was sure that he had never made any mistakes and had no conflicts with other colleagues, so he didn't understand why he was not allowed to work.
Factory Manager Nie sighed and said: "This is not your fault, it is your family who offended someone who shouldn't be offended, and I was also forced to do so. In short, you take your salary and leave. Don't ask about other things. After you go back, call Your family members don't talk nonsense, go."
Factory Manager Nie raised his hand after finishing speaking, it was obvious that he didn't want to say more.
Qiao Zhenjun was at a loss, and was very worried that something happened at home. He picked up the envelope, bowed to the factory manager, and left in a hurry.
Because the factory only has two days off a month, and it has been more than half a month since he went back last time, he really doesn't know what happened at home, he has to go back immediately!
The two guards were very surprised when they found out that he had been fired.
"It's a good job, why don't you let it go?" asked the older guard.
Another guard surnamed Wu followed suit and nodded: "Did something happen? Tell us and see if we can help!"
Qiao Zhenjun is honest and willing to work, and he has no evil intentions. Sometimes they ask him to take over for urgent matters at home, and he never complains.
It's so worry-free to work with such a person. If another person comes over, it may not be so easy to get along with!
Qiao Zhenjun sighed: "The factory manager said that my family offended someone, so don't ask any more questions. If someone asks me later, you can say that you don't know me well, so as not to hurt you!"
When the two heard this, they couldn't help being silent.
They wanted to speak for Qiao Zhenjun, but they were all ordinary people in their family, and the whole family lived on their salary, so they couldn't lose their jobs no matter what.
Qiao Zhenjun didn't blame them. If he encountered such a thing, he would choose to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
He packed up quickly and left that afternoon.
Although he knew that the factory manager should tell the Shen family about him, he still decided to visit the Shen family.
After Mr. Shen found out about this, he slapped the table loudly: "Who is so arrogant, just wait, I'll make a call right away to find out!"
Qiao Zhenjun quickly said no.
He didn't come here to let the Shen family stand out for him, he felt that the Shen family found this job for him, and even if he was fired now, he should still say hello to the other party.
But Mr. Shen got angry, and no one could stop him.
Factory Manager Nie is a junior of Mr. Shen. When he received his call, he felt bitter in his heart. He complained about Qiao Zhenjun before telling the story.
At the end, he said: "Uncle Shen, I know that the Qiao family is kind to you, but this matter involves the Revolutionary Committee, you should forget it."
After hanging up the phone, Mr. Shen's expression was very ugly, and he was so angry that his chest was pumping up and down.
Mrs. Shen came over when she heard the movement, and scolded him: "The doctor told you to calm down, you are so angry, do you still want to go to the hospital and lie down?"
Mr. Shen banged his crutches loudly: "Too much bullying, too much bullying!"
Qiao Zhenjun became even more restless, he would not have come if he had known.
After knowing what happened, Mrs. Shen sighed and said, "Sooner or later, these people will have their karma! Nephew of the Qiao family, go back and tell your family members not to confront those people head-on!"
"Okay, I'll go home now, I'm really sorry for causing you trouble!"
After Qiao Zhenjun knew that his family had offended the members of the Revolutionary Committee, his heart jumped out of fright. He wished he could fly back home immediately. On the one hand, he was worried that he would hurt the Shen family, so he felt very sorry.
Mr. Shen waved his hand: "You don't have to worry about implicating us. No matter how courageous that guy surnamed Qiu is, he wouldn't dare to extend his hand to our Shen family!"
The Shen family has been operating in the town for so many years, with all kinds of contacts and relationships, Qiu Xinyong would not be so stupid to deal with the Shen family, not to mention that he is not covering the sky with one hand in the Revolutionary Committee!
But it's not easy for the Shen family to take action on this matter, he has to wait for his son to come back and discuss it with him.
Qiao Zhenjun came out of Shen's house and immediately rushed to the production team without stopping. When he arrived at the production team, it happened to be the time for the villagers to quit work.
When everyone saw him, they all greeted him: "Second Joe, are you back from vacation?"
"Oh, if I knew you were coming back today, I should have asked you to help me go to the supply and marketing agency to buy something!"
Qiao Zhenjun smiled awkwardly.
When Qiao Xiuzhi saw the package behind her second son, she knew something was wrong.
Back at Qiao's house, Qiao Zhenjun's answer quickly confirmed her guess.
"Bang"!
Qiao Zhenmin slammed his fist on the table, his face livid with anger: "I'm going to fight the Tian family now!"
As he said that, he stood up, turned around and was about to rush out.
"Come back to me!" Qiao Xiuzhi shouted sharply.
Qiao Zhenmin turned his head, the veins on his forehead were exposed: "Mom, I really can't swallow this breath!"
Not to mention being cuckolded, they actually still have the face to threaten his family, it's really deceiving!
Qiao Xiuzhi looked at him and said in a cold voice: "If you can't swallow it, you can swallow it for me. When you go, do you want to die with the surname Tian or something? Do you think the matter will be solved after you die? Turn back to the uncle surnamed Tian You won't let us go, and Xiao Wan'er, if you die, have you thought about what will happen to her in the future? Do you think that a mother like Chen Qiaoqiao will take care of her with all her heart?"
Qiao Zhenmin gritted his teeth, squatted on the ground and beat his head in despair: "It's all my fault! I'm the one who hurt everyone!"
Back then, he had just started working in the supply and marketing cooperative in the town. Even if he came again, everyone would inevitably guard against him, especially at that time when he snatched the job from other people.
In order to stay in the supply and marketing cooperative, he worked very hard. For a while, in order to work, he only slept for three or four hours a day. As a result, he fell ill very quickly.
Chen Qiaoqiao appeared at this time.
Her brother also worked in the supply and marketing cooperative, and she used this as an excuse to get close to him, wash and cook for him, and deliver him medicine and food. The supply and marketing cooperatives thought they were dating.
He didn't like Chen Qiaoqiao very much at the time, but seeing her being so gentle and considerate, he acquiesced that she was his object, and then got married.
When she first got married, she was still a gentle and considerate wife, but she began to change when she realized that Xiao Wan'er was different from other children. She complained that Xiao Wan'er was not smart enough, and he was very dissatisfied with it. It has also changed.
But he thought she was just a bit cold-tempered at most, and he never expected that she would wear such a big green hat for him, and he would also implicate his family because of it.
He really regretted it. He shouldn't have married her in the first place!
Qiao Xiuzhi said: "Things have already happened, it's useless to regret, I just remind you, if you really care about your family, you'd better not act impulsively, otherwise this family will be ruined in your hands!"
Qiao Zhenmin let out a choked voice from his arms: "Mom, I got it!"
At first everyone thought that Qiao Zhenmin was just coming back for vacation, but he didn't come back to town for several days, and everyone soon found out that he was fired by the factory!
So there was a lot of discussion in the production team, and there were many people who saw jokes among them.
"Oh, Qiao's fifth son just got divorced, and Qiao's second son lost his job. I don't know what will happen to the Qiao family in the future?"
"That's not to say, it seems that it is a good thing for Fang Xiaojuan to leave Qiao's house now!"
After Xiao Qiao knew about this, she became more determined that her decision was correct.
The luck system on Da Qiao will take away the luck of those around him. The Qiao family looked very good some time ago, but in fact it was just a false prosperity. Isn't it starting to go downhill now
So she had to stay far away from her. After arriving in the Shanghai stock market, she could play the role of her leading heroine!
On this day, when Lin Hui came back from her natal home, she bumped into Fang Xiaojuan who was on the way.
