Chapter 174 She smiled, he held
"so serious!"
Looking at the little girl's vivid description, her face full of excitement, Fang Meng was very supportive, and his facial expression kept pace with hers, not making the little girl feel that he was being perfunctory at all.
Thermos bottles and enamel basins are not cheap, and you need tickets to buy them. It's okay to take apart bedding and wash them, or shake off the dust and dry them in the sun.
Mung bean cake is nothing to him and his little girl, but to Tao Lili, it is a delicacy that she is reluctant to eat.
He Xiangxiang and Tao Lili were part of the group of educated youth who went to the countryside with him and Eugene. It had been over half a year, and seeing that the educated youth office would stop giving them subsidies in a few months, Tao Lili had finally managed to spare the money to buy some mung bean cakes, but now they were all gone. Naturally, she was heartbroken.
Add to that the two of them had been bullied by them before, it was hard for them not to explode this time.
"And then a fight broke out?"
"Yeah!" Bai Nuo nodded, "Those two female educated youths are protected by two Wang Zhiqings. The two Wang Zhiqing brothers are against you but not the people from the Liu family. They are both very tough.
He Xiangxiang and Tao Lili demanded compensation from the Liu family. When Mrs. Liu heard they were going to pay, she leaped up and screamed as if she was going to die. She tried to grab He Xiangxiang and Tao Lili's faces, but Wang Dagang and Wang Datie couldn't stop them. A fight ensued, and then Hu Zhiqing and Guo Zhiqing tried to break up the fight, but they were also caught in the act.
Bai Nuo thought of her great unfortunate uncle, the captain, and couldn't help but schadenfreude. "Our poor Uncle Wei, he was originally planning to take the people to the brigade headquarters and hand them over to Secretary Lu, but things got messed up again. And more and more people showed up. I saw the people outside watching the excitement start to eat while they watched."
At this point, Bai Nuo tilted his head in confusion. "It's strange. When the first, second, and third branches of the Liu family were fighting, Liu Qingrong's wife stayed away and looked disgusted. But when she was fighting with the old educated youth just now, she ran up and pulled He Xiangxiang and Tao Lili's hair, almost wanting to pull their scalps off. I don't believe there's no deep hatred between them."
"I know a little about this!" Fang Meng said something that only he had discovered while serving the food from the pot.
Chao Xianhua, who was in charge of picking vegetables, heard these words as soon as he finished his work. His eyes lit up and he ran over.
Following behind him were Sun Yuxi and Qin Xuehua.
The four little girls gathered together again and happily ate watermelon, looking at Fang Meng with excitement on their faces, just like the children sitting in a row in kindergarten waiting to share the fruit.
Fang Meng's mouth twitched slightly, and he shook his head with amusement. He didn't want to keep these girls in suspense. The other three didn't matter, but if his little girl got anxious, he would be in trouble.
"This has to do with the love, hatred and vengeance that those people have behind the scenes!" Fang Meng looked like a storyteller, coaxing the little girl in his family and began to tell the story in a rhythmic tone.
"One time, when I was passing through the county town on my way back from the city, I saw Wang Dagang and Tian Youxi arguing in an alley. Tian Youxi was crying miserably, looking like she'd been dumped, and Wang Dagang had a bruise on his face. It sounded like Tian Youxi wanted to divorce and live with Wang Dagang, but Wang Dagang insisted that she find a job in the county and not return to the Qishui Brigade.
Tian Youxi had no choice but to go back to her parents' home in the county to ask her father for help. However, it was obvious that the Tian family did not agree. Judging from what Wang Dagang said at the time, the Tian family must have felt ashamed. They looked down on Liu Qingrong, but they also looked down on Wang Dagang. No matter what they said, they refused to agree. The Tian brothers even beat Wang Dagang and kicked them both out.
"Wow~"
"And then, and then!"
"Is it so exciting?"
"Damn, that's awesome!"
The four girls were amazed when they heard this, and looked like they had opened their third eye!
Fang Meng looked at them with amusement, and then said, "It seems that this matter has been left unresolved. Anyway, when I saw these two people again in the team, they seemed to not know each other. I guess they broke up. As for whether Liu Qingrong knew about it, I have no idea.
Another time, I went out in the afternoon and saw Tao Lili and Liu Qingrong hugging each other in the woods at the west end of the village. Not far away, Tian Youxi was hiding behind a big tree. When I came back, I heard that Tian Youxi had been beaten by He Xiangxiang and hadn't gotten out of bed for three days.
I don't know when Xie Weidong and Eugene came over. At this moment, they both looked at Fang Meng in amazement with expressions that shocked my entire family tree.
"The one hugging Liu Qingrong was Tao Lili, so why was He Xiangxiang the one getting beaten!!!"
Fang Meng was also confused. "I don't know. I didn't pay attention to these things before. When I first heard about it, I thought the people in the brigade had mixed up the names of the two female educated youth. Only when I returned to the educated youth compound did I find out that it was He Xiangxiang who was beaten. Tao Lili also didn't go to work and stayed in the educated youth compound to take care of her for three days."
Several people looked at each other and imagined it. The more they imagined it, the more exciting it seemed to them!
I never expected that the melon of Old Liu’s family is so big!
"No wonder Diao Xiaoyan is trying so hard to split the family. It seems that it's not just Old Madam Liu who favors the third wife. She's sucking the blood of the first and second wives to feed Liu Qingrong. The Liu family is so turbulent. It will be difficult for Diao Xiaoyan's eldest daughter to find a husband in two years."
Qin Xuehua shook her head with emotion. She knew Diao Xiaoyan a little bit. She always met her when she went to work in the fields, and occasionally heard Diao Xiaoyan chatting with others.
The Diao family never favors boys over girls. On the contrary, they sometimes treat their daughters better than their sons. This situation is actually not uncommon in the Northeast, but there are also families that favor boys over girls, such as the Liu family.
Diao Xiaoyan has always been worried that Old Lady Liu would sell her eldest daughter for the betrothal money when she was not paying attention. In addition, neither of the couples in the third room was honest, so the family had to be divided.
"Do you think Diao Xiaoyan can successfully divide the family business?" Bai Nuo frowned slightly, and suddenly wanted to go to the brigade headquarters to watch the fun.
"No, you don't want to!" Fang Meng seemed to live inside his little girl's head. He put his big hand on her little head and shook it gently. "Hurry up and serve the rice. It's time to eat."
"Right, right, right. You three should come back for dinner soon. We really can't run to the brigade headquarters tonight. If Uncle Wei catches us, he'll really beat us up. When the topic of [young educated youth gathered to peek, and were chased and beaten by a forty-something middle-aged man with a stick] gets out, we'll all be famous and have to go to the next brigade."
The four little girls looked at each other and couldn't help shivering when they thought of the scene at that time.
Forget it, forget it, they just want to eat melons quietly and don’t want to become the melon owners themselves.
