Chapter 189: Am I in Trouble?
On the third day of the New Year, Zhou Gui went to the Shen family to pay New Year's greetings.
When I was almost at Shen's house, I ran into Shi Chunhong who had just finished sweeping the toilet.
When Shi Chunhong saw Zhou Gui, she suddenly felt furious and wanted to fight with her. But then she remembered how she had lost the fight because of her inferior skills. She snorted coldly and walked away with her head held high.
Shen Bohang had been waiting for Zhou Gui at the door of his house. When he saw him, he hurried over to greet him.
Zhou Gui took the opportunity to say, "That Shi Chunhong is really petty. She lost the fight but she refused to accept it and acted arrogantly."
Shen Bohang looked at Shi Chunhong's back and said with a smile, "If you were her, you wouldn't be so narrow-minded.
Since she was knocked down by you that day, she kept her promise and went to sweep the toilet every day. The smell in the toilet was very bad, and she always had a bad smell on her body. The neighbors had nothing to do, so they gave her a nickname, "Xiang Gu".
That’s not all. Because she had to clean the men’s restroom every day, some bold male comrades would deliberately tease her.
Shi Chunhong asked loudly if there was anyone inside, but they kept silent. After Shi Chunhong went in, they accused Shi Chunhong of being a hooligan and peeping at them while they were using the toilet.
Shi Chunhong had a bad temper and a simple mind. She would immediately quarrel with them and sometimes even get physical. Can you imagine the scene of a female comrade fighting with a group of men?
We have a few ladies here who are very good at talking. Once they spread something, it is guaranteed to shock the world and make ghosts cry!
According to them, Shi Chunhong not only peeked at gay men going to the toilet, but also dated several people at the same time. Shi Chunhong's mother often quarreled with them, and the more they quarreled, the crazier the rumors became.
In short, Shi Chunhong's reputation was ruined.
Her mother's dream of finding her a good in-law family was also shattered.
Shi Chunhong wanted to go back to the countryside, but her mother refused. The mother and daughter often quarreled, and everyone would go to their house to watch the fun when they had nothing to do.
Zhou Gui lowered his head and said guiltily: "Did I get into trouble?"
Shen Bohang: "What does this have to do with you?! Shi Chunhong has lived in the countryside for so many years and has developed some bad habits. Habits cannot be changed overnight. Her personality is not suitable for staying in the city.
Her mother insisted that she stay and wanted to marry her off to a wealthy family. Isn't this hurting both herself and others?
It would also be good for them to face the reality as soon as possible.
You don't know, Shi Chunhong's mother borrowed a lot of food coupons and oil coupons from my mother, and she hasn't returned a single one to date. Sometimes she would also borrow money, but she also never returns it.
I don't like people who like to take advantage of others. Only my father is generous and treats Uncle Shi as a good friend. My mother is caught in the middle and it's hard to help or not help. "
Zhou Gui didn't want to say much about the affairs of her elders, and she wasn't married into the Shen family yet, so it was even more inconvenient for her to say more.
"Let's go, don't keep uncle and aunt waiting for too long."
Shen Bohang: “Yeah!”
When Zhou Gui came to pay New Year's greetings, Qin Yanhua was very happy. She brought out all the delicious food at home and filled the coffee table.
When Qin Yanhua was cooking, Zhou Gui also pulled Shen Bohang to help.
Qin Yanhua chatted with Zhou Gui while cooking.
After asking about Zhou's father and mother's situation, he took the opportunity to say, "You and Bohang have been dating for almost half a year, and you know each other's personalities. I believe you both recognize each other.
Bohang is not young anymore, he should get married soon, I am also worried about something, when your parents come, your uncle Shen and I will visit you and settle your relationship, how about that?"
Zhou Gui lowered his head in thought and did not express his opinion immediately.
Shen Bohang thought she disagreed, and said anxiously: "Agui, I promise you that I will learn how to cook before you get married!"
Zhou Gui smiled and said, "When my parents come tomorrow, I will discuss with them and decide the specific time."
After hearing this, Qin Yanhua and Shen Bohang both breathed a sigh of relief.
Qin Yanhua said: "Then you set a time and let us know."
Zhou Gui: "Okay."
After sending Zhou Gui home, Shen Bohang took Zhou Jiaguang to learn cooking seriously.
He could learn at home, but then he wouldn't be able to show off in front of his brother-in-law.
If you please your brother-in-law, you can save yourself a lot of trouble when you get married!
On the fourth day of the New Year, Xu Man brought Chen Zhan Ning and Chen Xiao Wei to pay New Year's greetings to Zhou Rong, and she brought their luggage as well.
The atmosphere of the Zhou family can make the two children more cheerful and allow them to better experience the lives of ordinary people. Xu Man strongly supports the two children living in the Zhou family.
Xu Man gave Zhou Rong 50 yuan and a dozen food coupons as living expenses for the two children.
Zhou Rong joked, "50 yuan is enough for an average family to live here for a few months. Do you want them to live here for a long time?"
Xu Man: "If you don't mind, I don't mind!"
Zhou Rong returned the money and tickets: "The two children call me aunt, how can I not take care of their meals? Giving money will make us feel distant, not to mention that we have to rely on you to help us with our work, and we have not yet repaid you for your kindness!"
Xu Man: "What kind of favors are you talking about? You are too polite! Keep the money and tickets, don't push them around. The two children don't have any other friends. Your home is their second home. They will definitely come to disturb them often in the future.
Zhan Ning's appetite has increased a lot recently, so I will pay this much for his food expenses. If it's not enough, you, my aunt, can help to supplement it a little."
Zhou Rong: "Small problem! As long as they are happy, they can always live in my house."
There were limited beds at home, so Chen Zhan Ning had to sleep together with Zhou Jia Guang, Dawa and others, while Chen Xiaowei slept with Zhou Rong and Nini.
The two children said it was no problem and that it would be warmer if they huddled together.
In the evening, Zhou's father and mother arrived in Chang'an.
With two more helpers, Zhou Jiaguang's work efficiency improved a lot. As soon as Zhou's father and his family put their luggage away, the meal was ready.
Zhou Chuanguo and Zhou Chuantai prepared a lot of cured goods for Zhou's father, such as cured fish, cured meat, cured rabbit and pheasant, to thank them for taking care of their children.
Chen Moli and Zhou Jiafu had to go to work early the next morning, and were worried about being late, so they did not go back to Chang'anli with Zhou's father and mother.
Zhou's mother gave most of the cured meat she brought to them and told them to go home and eat when they had a break.
In the evening, Zhou Jiaguang cooked a dish of pheasant meat. Zhou's father tasted it and praised: "I haven't seen you for a few days. Qi Guang's cooking skills have improved a lot!"
Zhou Jiaguang: "There's not enough time. It would taste better if we use it to make soup."
Mother Zhou: "I didn't realize you are quite knowledgeable."
Zhou Jiaguang: "My elder sister said, if you love what you do, you will be the best in every field.
He also said that he would face all troubles with the mentality of "no matter how many times life tortures me, I will treat life like my first love."
Since I cannot escape the fate of working, I might as well accept it calmly and do it well. I can also win your praise. Why not do it? "
Zhou's mother: "It would be best if you can figure it out. We won't harm you. Everything is for your own good."
Zhou Jiaguang: "I know, if I learn more skills, it will be easier to find my biological parents in the future."
Everyone: "..."
