Chapter 5

After everyone had left, only Xu Xiaofu, He Hua, and Mrs. Zheng were left in the kitchen with big eyes and small eyes. Mrs. Zheng stared at the two of them as if she was about to kill someone, hesitating whether to make a move, but remembering the fall just now, I dare not go forward.She could only stand at a distance and yell at Xu Xiaofu, "Don't be arrogant, you bastard. When my Erlang comes back, I will let my Erlang help make the decisions. You bastard is waiting to be put in prison." Bar!"

This Erlang naturally refers to Zheng Shihua, the second son of the Zheng family.

Although the Zheng family used to be good, they have been very poor since they fell down. It was not until Nian Shi married Zheng Shihua that the life of the Zheng family became easier.Nianshi's dowry has a dry goods shop, and the income of the shop is not bad. The Zheng family basically relies on Nianshi for food.Zheng Shihua went to the dry goods store to help out every day, leaving early and returning late.Zheng Shihua was much better than the boss Zheng Shiwen, he was willing to work, and he didn't talk much, and he didn't make things difficult for Xu Xiaofu.

Zheng Shiwen looks very upright and upright, but he is also a loafer. Originally, Zheng Shihua told Nian to let him help in the dry goods store, but Zheng Shiwen didn't do it after working for two days because he felt tired. Sun hangs out with Liu Shi at home.

Xu Xiaofu also knew what Zheng Shiwen was thinking, he just wanted to find a good-looking woman from a good family background, and then divorce her.In the past, Xu Xiaofu might have resigned herself to fate, but now she will never let the Zheng family divorce her.A woman who is divorced in this day and age has no way of life. Being divorced means committing seven crimes. Even if you don't care, the spittle of the neighbors will drown you, and you will be pointed out wherever you go.Even if she wants to leave the Zheng family, she has only one way to go and leave.In this era, it is not so embarrassing for women who are separated from each other. After all, reconciliation is just a feud between husband and wife.

After exhaling, Xu Xiaofu held the lotus flower and looked at Mrs. Zheng fixedly, and said word by word: "Don't bully us in the future."

Mrs. Zheng didn't seem to expect that Xu Xiaofu would dare to speak like this, pointing at her was so angry that she was almost speechless.

Xu Xiaofu said again: "How can you, an old woman, beat me? And do you think they believe you or me? If you continue to embarrass us like this in the future, don't blame me for being rude to you. Since we are a family, why not Can't be kind?" She didn't want to fight with the old woman, she hoped to at least maintain a superficial peace.Even if she wants to leave the Zheng family in the end, it can only be a reconciliation.At present, it cannot be realized, and Mrs. Zheng will definitely not agree. If she speaks now, she is afraid that she will only be divorced.

Mrs. Zheng rolled her eyes several times in anger, but she didn't dare to go forward to bully them.Xu Xiaofu didn't say much, he pulled Hehua and walked out from Mrs. Zheng.

Mrs. Zheng watched them pass in front of her helplessly, her teeth were about to be gritted, but she didn't say a word.

As soon as he got out of the kitchen, He Hua raised his head to look at Xu Xiaofu, the expression in his eyes could not be described as surprise, surprise or joy.

The two returned to the room, Xu Xiaofu hugged He Hua and went to bed, looked at the expression on He Hua's face, knew that she was not frightened by him, and said: "Lotus, mother is doing this to protect us, mother... mother I don't want you to be beaten by grandma, mother knows that if mother continues to be so cowardly, grandma might beat us to death, mother is like today...do you blame mother?"

He Hua shook his head, and said in a sensible way: "Mother, He Hua understands everything, and He Hua doesn't blame Mother."

Seeing such a precocious little girl, Xu Xiaofu sighed in his heart, if it hadn't happened for today's incident, she would have lived in a muddle.Now she has accepted the fact that she has time-traveled, accepted the fact that she has become Xu Xiaofu, but what should she do in the future?How can Zheng Shiwen reconcile with her?Maybe try talking to him?

Xu Xiaofu couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this terrible thing.

When it was time for dinner at night, Mrs. Zheng told Zheng Shihua and Nian about Xu Xiaofu bullying her.Xu Xiaofu ate with a bowl on the side and buried his head in his mouth without saying a word, but occasionally looked up at Mrs. Zheng, his eyes were red with tears.

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Zheng was so angry that she almost couldn't eat anymore, she pointed at her and said: "Look at her, she can pretend like this... Erlang, you have to make decisions for mother, mother really didn't lie, This cheap hoof threw my mother to the ground."

Zheng Shihua said: "Mother, who would believe what you said? My sister-in-law is so weak, it's fine if she doesn't get bullied by you..." Seeing the anxious expression of Mrs. Zheng, Zheng Shihua's voice became smaller and smaller.

Nian swallowed the food in his mouth, looked up at Xu Xiaofu, then smiled at Mrs. Zheng and said, "Mother, tell me, how did sister-in-law bully you?"

Mrs. Zheng thought that her second daughter-in-law was going to decide for her, so she hurriedly said, "She pressed my shoulder with one hand, and grabbed my arm with the other, and gave me an over-the-shoulder throw..."

Before she finished speaking, everyone in the room burst out laughing, and Nian said: "Mother, I don't know when sister-in-law had such strength to throw you over her shoulder... "

"No, mother, just blow it hard..." Zheng Xiaolian also giggled.

Mrs. Zheng's complexion immediately turned extremely dark, and she pointed at Zheng Xiaolian and said angrily: "You stinky girl, I haven't settled the score for you today, tell me, how many times have I told you to stop dealing with that birthday celebration, His family is poor, and his mother is also an arrogant and unreasonable person, if you marry, you will only suffer hardships..."

With vegetables in her mouth, Zheng Xiaolian said inarticulately: "What are you afraid of, Brother Qingsheng will treat me well after he says that, he will definitely not let her mother bully me..."

Mrs. Zheng is so angry that she is almost out of breath now. She feels that she is really unlucky. Now her daughter-in-law is disobedient, and even her daughter is disobedient.

Because of Zheng Xiaolian's matter, Mrs. Zheng turned her finger on Zheng Xiaolian, and spent the whole meal chattering to persuade Zheng Xiaolian...

Probably because of Xu Xiaofu's prestige, Mrs. Zheng didn't dare to bully their wives these few days, at most she pointed at Sang and Huai, and Xu Xiaofu just thought it was a dog barking.In the past few days, Mrs. Zheng didn't even dare to skip meals, so the two of them could have a full meal.

This day Xu Xiaofu was busy helping He Hua to mend her coat, but she heard the knock on the door outside the yard, she thought for a while and got up to open the door.

Today, she was the only one at home. Zheng Shiwen took Liu Shi to hang out somewhere, Mrs. Zheng went to chat with others, Zheng Xiaolian went to find her brother Qingsheng, of course, Zheng Shihua and Nian Shi were doing nothing. The shop was busy.

After opening the courtyard door, Xu Xiaofu was stunned for a long time when he saw the woman standing outside.This woman was about fifty years old, with gray hair, wearing a patched shabby jacket, her face was full of vicissitudes of life, and her lips were frighteningly chapped.Seeing that it was Xu Xiaofu who opened the door, he was startled.

There was a strong wind outside the door, and the woman's white hair was disheveled.

"Mother, why are you here?" Xu Xiaofu looked at the weak and thin woman in front of him, and said dully.This person is Xu Xiaofu's own mother, Mrs. Wang.

After Xu Xiaofu married into Xu's family four years ago, Mrs. Wang often came to visit her at first, but after Mrs. Zheng became more and more unkind to Xu Xiaofu, Mrs. Wang seldom came to see her.Xu Xiaofu knew that it was because Mrs. Wang felt uncomfortable seeing her. After all, her daughter was now being bullied by her in-laws. Any mother-in-law would feel distressed, but Mrs. Wang couldn't do anything about it. She can't control it.

The thin woman tore the hem of her ripped coat, feeling a little nervous, "Xiaofu, mother came to see you, you... How are you doing?" Wang's voice was very hoarse, and Xu Xiaofu's heart ached. There was a pain.

"Mom, I'm doing well." Xu Xiaofu replied.Seeing the wind getting stronger and stronger, she dragged Wang Shi into the yard, "Mother, it's windy outside, let's go in and sit down."

"No, no, I... I just came to see you." Wang Shi hurriedly waved her hand, and looked into the yard with some fear.

Xu Xiaofu knew that Wang was afraid of Mrs. Zheng, so he said: "Mother, don't worry, mother-in-law is not at home, she has gone out..."

Only then did Wang follow Xu Xiaofu into the house, seeing her girl living in such a place, Wang felt uncomfortable, her eyes couldn't help turning red, she held Xu Xiaofu's hand and said: "Xiaofu, mother is sorry, mother I didn't find a good house for you..."

"Mother, I'm fine... Isn't this all right?" Xu Xiaofu stood aside a little at a loss, not knowing how to comfort this strange mother.

But Wang's tears seemed to be opened, and she couldn't stop, dragging Xu Xiaofu to chatter, saying sorry to her, talking about the difficulties at home, talking about not finding a good husband for her...Xu Xiaofu I had no choice but to listen, listening to seem to detect a trace of something from Wang's mouth, and asked: "Mother, but what happened at home?"

When Wang heard this, the tears flowed even more fiercely, but she just shook her head, "Don't worry, Xiaofu, everything is fine at home, everything is fine..."

Xu Xiaofu was very clear about Wang's temperament, seeing that she knew that something must have happened at home, he couldn't help frowning, and said: "Mother, what happened, don't hide it from me."

Asked by Xu Xiaofu, Wang couldn't help howling and crying, "Xiaofu, something happened to your little brother..."

Xu Xiaofu was stunned.Xu Xiaofu is the third child of the Xu family. In addition to the married eldest sister Xu Xiaolan, the Xu family also has an older brother Xu Qingshan and a younger brother Xu Qingfei.The eldest sister married far away and couldn't come back for several years. The second brother Xu Qingshan is honest and poor, so he never married a wife. The younger brother Xu Qingfei is also a very obedient child. She never thought that something would happen to Qingfei, so she couldn't help He became anxious, "Mother, what's the matter, little brother? Don't scare me."
