crime scene please keep quiet

In 1983, Meicheng Town, Dongzhou.

Xu Xiuxiu woke up before 8:16 am on August [-].

Eldest brother Xu Ping'an didn't turn off the lights until two o'clock in the morning, and sister-in-law Liang Jinfeng was pregnant. She was in the late stage of pregnancy for more than six months, and it was difficult to fall asleep at night. She had just fallen asleep, so she made as little noise as she could while making breakfast.

But Liang Jinfeng was still awakened.

Liang Jinfeng is an ordinary peasant girl from a small mountain village three hundred miles away. Xu Pingan met when she was an educated youth. Xu Pingan passed the college entrance examination and returned to the city, and Liang Jinfeng was also admitted to a school in the same city the next year. As the two made progress with each other, their relationship grew stronger, and soon they made a private decision for life.

The young men and women, who fell in love with each other and felt that the future was bright, finally crossed the line one night. When Xu's family found out that Liang Jinfeng already had Xu Ping'an's flesh and blood in his stomach.

Xu's father and Xu's mother are both ordinary employees of the Meicheng Township Supply and Marketing Cooperative. Although they are not famous, but in the era when buying meat required meat tickets, both of them held iron rice bowls, so they were naturally superior. She is capable, and she will graduate in one year. After graduation, she will be able to work as a teacher in a county-level middle school. Therefore, in the hearts of Xu's parents and Xu's mother, Xu Ping'an's wife, even if she is not an official daughter, must be a scholarly family.

But Liang Jinfeng is just a peasant girl. Although she has also been admitted to a university and is considered an intellectual, a poor and unreliable intellectual young woman is of no help to Xu Ping'an and the Xu family. Obviously, she is not in the consideration of Xu's parents However, it was such a woman who was pregnant with Xu Ping'an's child, and even coaxed Xu Ping'an to introduce her as his fiancée.

Yes, Xu Ping'an and Liang Jinfeng went to get their marriage certificate on the second day after the two had a substantial relationship. This was what made Xu's father and Xu's mother the most angry.

If they just fell in love and got pregnant, then they can say that Liang Jinfeng shamelessly hooked up with their family Xu Pingan, they could go to school to badmouth Liang Jinfeng's reputation, and even let Liang Jinfeng beat the child, but now Liang Jinfeng is legally allowed Ping'an's legal wife is Xu's daughter-in-law in name, and Liang Jinfeng was conceived within marriage, so why should they speak ill of her?Bad-mouthing Liang Jinfeng is also bad-mouthing their Xu family!
Xu Ping'an could only let people in. For the face of the Xu family, Xu's father and Xu's mother held a small wedding for them. Of course, at the wedding, Xu's mother was in front of all relatives and friends of the Xu family and Liang Jinfeng The face of her natal family gave Liang Jinfeng a hard time, and she also said in front of her sisters that she would never accept Liang Jinfeng in this life, and she would immediately let them divorce after Liang Jinfeng gave birth to the child.

Xu Pingan couldn't see Liang Jinfeng being humiliated in public, and took Liang Jinfeng out as soon as the wedding was over. Xu's mother was so angry that she threatened to sever ties with Xu Pingan.

When the mother and son were in a stalemate, Xu Xiuxiu stood up. She told Xu's father and Xu's mother that her place of work was close to Xu Ping'an's house.

Xu's mother warned: "Then Liang Jinfeng is a college student. She knows more and is smarter than you. You are young, so don't be fooled by her. You have to remember that you are from the Xu family and your name is Xu Xiuxiu!"

Xu Xiuxiu patted her chest and assured: "Dad, Mom, don't worry, I am from the Xu family, and I will definitely stand with you. If Liang Jinfeng is really a bad guy, after she gives birth, I will run away after holding the baby. Don't let her find it!"

Xu Xiuxiu moved to live with her elder brother and sister-in-law. Naturally, she had more freedom than when she lived with her parents. After more than half a month of getting along, she only admired and liked Liang Jinfeng, and could not raise any hostility. So she told Liang Jinfeng: "Sister-in-law, take good care of your baby. My parents have me and my brother on their side. You don't have to worry at all!"

Liang Jinfeng had a lot of stares at Xu's family, and she didn't immediately feel relieved after hearing this, until one time when Xu's mother brought two sisters to run on her, Xu Xiuxiu defended her in front of many elders, and even ate a lot of money for her. Only after her mother's slap did she dare to believe that Xu Xiuxiu was really looking for her.

Xu Xiuxiu only had a junior high school education. She saw that her sister-in-law, a rural girl, could get into college with her own abilities, and she also moved to take the college entrance examination. Xu Xiuxiu only told Liang Jinfeng about this, because Xu's parents and Xu's mother would definitely stop her .

It's not that girls think it's useless to study, and the Xu family didn't say patriarchal. It's just that Xu Xiuxiu hasn't been very smart since she was a child, and her grades have never been in the top [-] in her class. When she graduated from junior high school three years ago, her brother Xu Ping'an wanted to pass the college entrance examination and return to the city, but the places were limited. Xu spent a lot of money, and the family was already struggling. Anyway, she didn't pass the college entrance examination, so she simply dropped out of school.

Xu's mother used her connections to find a job as a salesperson in a street department store under the township supply and marketing cooperative. She went to work at 100:[-] am and left work at [-]:[-] pm on time. Although the job is not an iron job, but it is easy and decent, and it can make people lose their heads in Meicheng Town. Xu's mother stuffed Xu Xiuxiu in, besides making her suffer less, she also had other thoughts.

Although the street shops are not as good as the department stores in the county, the ones that go in and out are quite well-established in the town. Xu Xiuxiu is not bad-looking, soft-spoken, gentle and gentle, her parents are well-employed, and there is a couple at home. College student brother-in-law, the conditions of her mother's family are very outstanding in Meicheng Town, Xu's mother hopes that Xu Xiuxiu can find a husband's family with better conditions.

Xu's mother was worried that she was young and had little experience, and she was afraid of being kidnapped by some bums with sweet words, so she told Xu Xiuxiu to pay more attention to the customers who often came to the store to buy things, preferably a decent-looking old lady in her 60s or [-]s. This kind of person's family conditions are good, even if there is no son of the right age in the family, the ones around him are not bad, and anyone who introduces them is better than Xu Xiuxiu himself.

Xu Xiuxiu has a gentle and honest personality, and is also a newcomer to the society. Xu's mother told her everything, and she also remembered what Xu's mother said, to be careful and careful. Therefore, Xu Xiuxiu has been honest and honest in the store for more than two years. She really sells things, and turns a blind eye to the frivolous teasing of some young people, and she is not too far away from some old ladies who take the initiative to show affection to her, and she responds very decently.

It’s just that this year, the spring breeze of reform and opening-up has also blown to Meicheng Town, and all kinds of shops have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, with more categories, lower prices and better services than street shops, but within two or three months, Most of the customers in the street store had lost, and even the retired old lady who used to come to the store every week to chat with Xu Xiuxiu stopped coming.

Xu Xiuxiu didn't care, but Xu's mother was in a hurry.

Before the emergence of individual businesses, Xu Xiuxiu's status as a salesperson was decent, but now there are salespersons all over the street, some of them haven't even graduated from elementary school, and some even have broken hands!
Her daughter's style was pulled down at once, Xu's mother was afraid that her daughter would be underestimated, so she told Xu Xiuxiu to spend more time with Mrs. Lin, the mayor's mother of Meicheng Town, every day.

Because Xu's mother fell in love with the mayor's only son, Lin Shuo, and Xu Xiuxiu didn't have any feelings for Lin Shuo. She just didn't want to listen to Xu's mother's nagging, so she agreed to take half a day off this afternoon and go to Lin's house for a while. It's fine for the Lin family to look down on her.
