Wang Ying really didn't know that Tian Dazhu was going to get married.
Since Qian**'s divorce, Wang Ying has not paid much attention to the news of Tian Dazhu's family. And Tian Dazhu has always been working honestly and has become more distant from the people in the team.
The people in the team were gossiping. After all, it was Qian** who proposed the divorce, so didn't that mean the woman divorced the man
So Qian** has a bad reputation, but Tian Dazhu, who was abandoned by his wife, has a bad reputation either.
Especially with Tian Erzhu's wife and Tian Dazhu's mother present, Wang Ying really didn't expect Tian Dazhu to get married so soon.
After all, he is so cowardly, and it seems that he is destined to be strangled by his biased mother and dedicated to his younger brother's family for the rest of his life.
Wang Ying herself felt that Tian Dazhu had to work for her brother's family for at least a few years before Tian Erzhu's wife would let him get married. With such a good laborer, Tian Dazhu's mother would definitely not let him relax. She would not let him go until Tian Erzhu's family had sucked her blood out of him.
And even if he were to marry a wife, Tian Dazhu's mother would definitely make the choice, and the person she would find would not be someone as responsible as Qian**.
It’s only been such a short time and Tian Dazhu is already planning to get married and have children
Erya held her breath and said, "He said that if we follow our mother, we will be easily bullied, so he asked us to go back and follow him. In the future, our brother will support us."
Wang Ying was speechless. The last time she was so speechless was last time.
This man must be crazy about his son.
But Wang Ying also had her doubts in her heart, thinking that Tian Dazhui was not the kind of person who would take the initiative to talk to his daughter about such things.
He is a man who can't even say three words when you knock him on the head. How could he set his mind on his two daughters
Daya, who had been silent all the time, spoke.
"I saw him with Widow Yu a few days ago. He was helping Widow Yu fetch water..."
Wang Ying: …
This widow Yu was a famous young widow in the brigade. There were two most famous widows in the brigade. One was widow Sun whose chicken was stolen by Wang Yaozong. Everyone called her the old widow.
Because Widow Sun's husband passed away early, she raised her children alone. She was also very aggressive and would not care about anything when she got into trouble. After her husband passed away, her husband's brothers wanted to take her house and private plot of land. She chased them across half the commune with a kitchen knife and almost hacked them to death.
After that, everyone in the brigade knew that this widow Sun was not someone to be trifled with. Even those who wanted to take advantage of her because she was a widow could only avoid her for fear of being stabbed by this shrew.
As for the other young widow, Widow Yu...
The reputation has become much more ambiguous.
Wang Ying had seen this young widow in winter before. She wore a coat that was tightly wrapped around her body, showing off her proud chest. She had a little red paper on her lips. Her face was plump, and at a time when everyone was barely able to eat, the widow Yu was full of charm whenever she stood there.
To say that Widow Yu was very pretty was not the case, but she had a good figure and had never given birth, so she still stood out among the crowd of women.
Besides, the reason why Widow Yu remained a widow was because her husband accidentally fell down a mountain a few years ago and died when he was rescued. Logically speaking, since she had no children, Widow Yu would have just returned to her parents' home and stayed there for a while before looking for a husband.
But Widow Yu had a good relationship with her mother-in-law, who was also alone. For some reason, Widow Yu made up her mind not to return to her parents' home, and insisted on staying with her mother-in-law at her husband's home.
At the beginning, everyone admired Widow Yu for being a rare person. She stayed with her husband even after he passed away and helped the man take care of his mother. She was really a good woman.
But gradually, some rumors began to spread in the team.
Some people saw someone from the brigade helping Widow Yu fetch water, some people saw someone else helping Widow Yu work in the fields, and some people who lived near Widow Yu's home said that they saw a figure at the door of Widow Yu's house in the middle of the night.
No one actually saw anything like it, but it spread by word of mouth.
As a result of this, Widow Yu's reputation became bad.
But Widow Yu acted as if nothing had happened and continued to move around in the team. Occasionally, if a man stared at her for a few more seconds, his wife would pull his ears.
But when it comes to Widow Yu and Tian Dazhu...
Wang Ying was not sure, as these two people didn't seem to be of the same kind.
Wang Ying looked at the two children standing beside her and they looked worried and like they both had a lot on their minds.
She asked, "Are you afraid... that your mother will know about your father's marriage and worry about her?"
Daya nodded heavily. She whispered, "Dad is getting married. Will Mom be angry... and think that we are a burden?"
Wang Ying comforted her, "Don't think of your mother as too fragile. Besides, no matter what, she won't think you are a burden."
"Look, if your mother felt that you were a burden, then couldn't she have left you to the Tian family when they divorced? Daya, do you remember that they insisted on keeping you, but your mother didn't agree?"
Daya's brows gradually relaxed. She was nervous when she first heard the news that Tian Dazhu was getting married. She was not sad about her father's remarriage, but was just worried about the money.
Wang Ying encouraged them, "You are all great. I think you should not be afraid. Your mother will definitely not be angry with you for this."
Wang Ying's firm attitude calmed the two little girls down a little, but Erya was still a little angry.
As for what she was angry about, this little girl, who was only five years old, couldn't express it accurately, but she was angry.
Wang Ying coaxed the two people back.
After returning home, he told this to Old Lady Xu. Old Lady Xu slapped her thigh and said, "I saw Mrs. Yu wearing new clothes a few days ago! She also said there was a happy event at home. It turned out to be this happy event!"
Old Lady Xu looked very excited, and she spoke to Wang Ying in a very clear and logical manner: "After all these years, this old woman finally found someone she can hold on to."
Wang Ying took a handful of melon seeds and scattered them on the table and started cracking them, her eyes sparkling: "Mom, tell me in detail."
It's not her fault that she's too gossipy. There really isn't much entertainment in the countryside. Even if the projection team comes to show a movie, it's only in the commune. Their brigade can't even have such a good thing. In such a boring day, how can you survive without eating melons
Old Lady Xu took a handful of melon seeds and said as she ate them, "You don't know, this Yu woman is the worst. Of all the women in our brigade, she is the most sinister and cunning."
In order to make it easier for Wang Ying to understand, Old Lady Xu even gave a small example.
"In the early years, when Xu Shuang was still young, her father was a cook in a small noodle shop in the commune. At the beginning, Mrs. Xu always came to me. I was in charge of everything at that time, and I was not wary of people. She was also a little wife, so I got along well with her."
"But do you know what happened later? The little girl in her family was only a little over ten years old, and she brought that girl with her every time she came."
"I think you are a young girl, so just come if you want to."
"Who knew that the little girl would come so often, and every time she would come to Xu Ming's side. Xu Ming was still studying at that time, and she would hang around him to add tea and water. If you didn't know, you would think Xu Ming was treating her like a little girl."
"I felt uncomfortable, so I mentioned it to her."
"Do you know what this person said?"
Wang Ying's eyes sparkled: "What did you say?"
"She said that she saw that Xu Ming was very successful, so she sent her little girl here as a child bride. She didn't want any money from me, as long as she could be Xu Ming's mistress."
Wang Ying: "... The country had already been established by then, right?"
"That's right. It's a new society now, but she's still thinking about that. I can't tell what she's planning. She just thinks that if she sends the girl here, Xu Ming won't be able to explain it when he grows up. Anyway, it's done, and the new society doesn't allow child brides. Then they'll be in-laws, and when they become in-laws, they'll naturally help each other. It seems like she's at a disadvantage to send a daughter here without paying, but she'll have to get it back sooner or later."
Wang Ying: "I really can't tell she is such a person."
On weekdays in the brigade, Mrs. Yu looked no different from other old ladies. Who would have thought that in private she was the kind of person who sold her daughter for benefits.
Old Lady Xu: "Don't be fooled by her. This is not a good family. I was so angry at that time that I chased her away and never let her come again. I don't know how she got married to a family in the next brigade and sent her daughter there. Now it's still in-laws, but everyone knows that she sent her daughter away as a child bride. The living standard of that family is not bad, but it has obviously declined in recent years. It's all because of that good daughter of hers who has been concentrating on draining the husband's family and getting close to her own family."
Old Lady Xu said with a spit, "This person is just a vicious and selfish person. She doesn't even think about the suffering her daughter has to endure when she was sent away at such a young age. She just keeps pretending to be sick and asking for things. Even her daughter-in-law was tricked into staying with her."
"As for the matter of Tian Dazhu this time, I tell you, nine times out of ten, it was she who made the decision behind the scenes. This old woman is really cruel. She holds her daughter-in-law as a support for her in her old age, and she expects her daughter-in-law to support her in her old age."
Wang Ying: "Then her daughter-in-law can't see it? Is she willing to be used by others?"
Old Lady Xu sneered and said, "Her daughter-in-law looks smart, but she's actually stupid. Don't go over there and make yourself uncomfortable. Even if you say that, people will think you're jealous of her. Do you think we haven't said that before? We've said it so many times. People just think her mother-in-law is the best mother-in-law in the world, and she would rather die than remarry."
Old Lady Xu tilted her head and thought for a moment: "Now that she has agreed to remarry, there must be something behind it. I don't think she will take the initiative to choose Tian Dazhu."
There were many bachelors and widowers in the brigade who coveted this young widow, and there were many people who fetched water for her to go to the fields. It was obvious that Widow Yu had connections with some of them, while others simply ordered them to do work.
Among so many people, Widow Yu chose Tian Dazhu to marry
It's impossible to even think about it.
There must be some reason that forced the two of them to get married.
Wang Ying thought for a moment and said, "I heard from Tian Dazhu himself that he is going to have a son soon... Could it be that Widow Yu is pregnant?"
Old Mrs. Xu was surprised at first, then she said meaningfully: "That's hard to say."
As to whether it is difficult to say about the two people's marriage or the child that Widow Yu is pregnant with, that is a matter of opinion.
Wang Ying finished eating the melon with satisfaction and sighed, "The city is full of tricks, and the countryside is the same."
These colorful melons are just like a big opera.
Isn't it just a big show
Tian Dazhui is going to get married.
There were also endless problems with the educated youth over there.
Although Yang Hong had held a meeting with the educated youth a few days ago, and everyone had made it clear that no one except Zhang Ping and Jiang Li could move into the Xu family, the Xu family was not happy about it. Besides, the brigade had already decided on it, and it was not up to individual educated youth to take action on their own.
Apart from this, there was also the incident where Xu Zhiqing and Jiang Lei fought over Bai Ling and ended up fainting. There was also a lot of turmoil within the Zhiqing community.
Although everyone has their own opinions, the male educated youth generally don't care much about Bai Ling's behavior, but they have a lot of opinions about Jiang Lei. The female educated youth have a lot of opinions about Bai Ling, and even Yang Hong, who lives with Bai Ling, is unwilling to pay attention to her.
Bai Ling was so angry that her teeth were itching. She had lost Xu Zhiqing, the vulnerable one. If she only relied on Jiang Lei, she would not only not be able to eat enough but also suffer from fatigue.
Jiang Lei's money was spent, and he no longer went to the state-owned restaurant to buy meat for Bai Ling. In addition, he also had to work in the fields, and the work of male and female educated youth was separate, so even if he could help Bai Ling, it was limited.
Bai Ling was very upset. She felt like nothing was going well for her!
First, Wang Ying failed to catch him, and then Xu Zhiqing got off the hook, leaving only Jiang Lei, who was useless and causing trouble.
Bai Ling felt that she couldn't go on like this. Xu Zhiqing's incident had already ruined her reputation among the educated youth. In addition, she lived in Wu Guihua's house, and Wu Guihua didn't like her. Although she wouldn't go so far as to make up stories about her outside, she would definitely complain about her to people she knew. For example, Wang Ying must have heard Wu Guihua's complaints, so she was very harsh to her.
Nothing goes well for her now.
So, after Bai Ling calculated all the men around her, she chose a new target.
That is Yu Pengcheng.
She recalled Yu Pengcheng's performance along the way and felt that Yu Pengcheng must be in very favorable conditions. Didn't you see that this man always wears a watch when he goes to the countryside
And according to what Jiang Lei said, he lived with Yu Pengcheng and often saw Yu Pengcheng going to town and city. Even if he lacked work points for working in the fields, the other party didn't care at all, as if he planned to use money to make up for the work points when the grain was distributed.
When Jiang Lei said this, he meant to complain that Yu Pengcheng didn't work and wasn't a capable person. But Bai Ling keenly determined Yu Pengcheng's family background from the details.
With a watch, you can buy work points with money, and you can also go to the city or town to improve your food.
This person's conditions are much better than I expected.
Bai Ling decided to invest some money to hook up with Yu Pengcheng. After all, her health was not good and she was very short of money in the countryside.
Bai Ling looked at her calves and decided to wait for a few days. She would take advantage of the time when everyone else was working in the fields to give Yu Pengcheng a chance to be a hero and save the damsel in distress.
As for who is the one who stepped on it
Who else could it be
Bai Ling is so disgusted with Jiang Lei now. This guy is simply a waste. Keeping him around will only bring trouble. It is better to suppress him completely, which can also be regarded as adding bricks and tiles to her own path to Yu Pengcheng.
When the weather gets hot, Wang Ying no longer likes to eat hot food. She even feels hot when sleeping at night and has to sleep on separate sides from Xu Shuang.
“It’s too hot!”
The scariest thing is that it’s not even the first dog days of summer yet. Wouldn’t it be even hotter when it arrives
Xu Shuang was negative: "Have you ever seen the summer heat in the mountains be unbearable? Besides, it's really not that hot now, right?"
He was also very confused. He clearly felt fine, so why did Wang Ying feel hot
Wang Ying didn't believe it, so she checked her own pulse, but she couldn't detect anything.
Suddenly, she felt a heat in her lower abdomen. She paused and hurried to check.
When he came back, he said sadly, "Oh, it's my fault."
Her life was over and she was in a bad mood, so she felt hot.
When Xu Shuang saw her like this, she wanted to come over and hug her.
Wang Ying also hugged him. The original owner's physical condition had improved a little, but she had not yet adjusted to this daily life. Not only was her period irregular, but it also caused pain, which of course made her a little irritable.
Wang Ying: "Alas..."
Xu Shuang knew what she was sighing about, and quickly said, "Well, what are you talking about? It's called sanitary napkins. I've asked Master for foreign exchange coupons. If he can get them, I'll go buy them for you."
Wang Ying turned over unnaturally. It was really...
She herself did not expect that after traveling through time, the thing that bothered her the most was the lack of sanitary napkins. At that time, sanitary napkins were only available at the Friendship Store, and could not be purchased without foreign exchange coupons. Most people did not even know about this thing, and still used the old-fashioned menstrual belt.
"Okay, let's go to bed."
Xu Shuang continued, "I'll make you a red soup with egg tomorrow? And a chicken noodle soup?"
Wang Ying perked up when she heard about food: "Let's not have chicken noodle soup. We only have two chickens at home. If we eat them, there will be no more chickens to lay eggs. How about... we send the pigs over?"
The wheat harvest is coming up next month, which is only half a month away. At this time, the pigs should be delivered first, and the promised distribution should be settled. This year, I heard that the brigade will distribute pork again during the double harvest season. Wang Ying was eager to try, thinking that this frequency was not bad.
It’s been a long time since I last ate pork, so now is the perfect time.
Xu Shuang agreed without hesitation: "Okay, I'll make you stir-fried pork, minced meat and eggplant, braised spareribs..."
These are the dishes that Wang Ying has always been talking about, and they cannot be made without meat.
The more Wang Ying thought about it, the more she drooled: "Okay!"
The next day, Wang Ying began to notify those families who said they wanted to exchange for pork. She told them that they had to hand over their pigs, and asked whoever wanted pork to tell her what they wanted in advance. When the time came, she would give everyone the share of the pigs.
Exchanging pork is a big deal. Some families’ heads of households are not around, so they didn’t say how much they wanted. They would wait until everything was discussed before telling Wang Ying.
Wang Ying also understood and urged him a few times, saying that a decision should be made as soon as possible and that the pigs would be delivered in the afternoon.
When Wang Ying returned home, the first person to come to her door was an unexpected person.
Tian Dazhu asked hesitantly, "Doctor Wang Ying, I want to ask, can I order five kilograms of pork?"
At this point, Tian Dazhu was a little proud again, straightened his chest and said: "I, I'm going to get married and have a son soon. I want to hold a wedding, and I can't treat my son badly."
