Adored Koi in the ’70s

Chapter 50

"Mom, why didn't you notify me about a big matter like Second Elder Brother's wedding?"

Qiao Hong Mei was wearing a red dress and rushed over with her four daughters behind her.

When everyone heard her words, they immediately smelled out gossip.

Old Second Qiao got married, but the younger sister, Qiao Hong Mei wasn't notified. Was this falling out?

When Qiao Xiu Zhi saw that it was the uninvited Qiao Hong Mei family, she blandly spoke, "Since you're here, go in and sit."

Qiao Hong Mei was pissed!

The last time she departed Qiao's house with ruthless words left behind and saw a gray rabbit halfway back. Who knew that the rabbit hadn't been caught. She and her eldest daughter were bitten by mosquitoes in the face instead. They had a high fever that night and were sent to the hospital!

Because of this sickness, the family spent dozens of yuan altogether. Her husband and mother-in-law chewed her out and told her that she must get the money back from her maternal home this time!

She originally wanted to find an excuse to come back. Then she heard that her Second Elder Brother was going to remarry and thought to herself- she'll wait for them to invite her and borrow this to forgive her mom.

Well, what do you know!

She waited and waited all the way until her Second Elder Brother's wedding day and no one came to inform her!

Really pissed her off!

She felt that her face was being stomped on the ground!

So when she saw her mom trying to get the topic out of the way, she sneered in her heart: "Mom, you haven't told me why Second Elder Brother got married and notified everyone except me alone? Mom, do you not like me, your duaghter so much?"

"Didn't you tell us not to beg you when you left last time? Didn't you say you would never step into Qiao's house? Then why should I invite you? While you, don't you feel ashamed if coming uninvited?"

At the beginning, Qiao Xiu Zhi wanted to save some face for each other. However, some people were shameless!

Qiao Hong Mei's face turned red and black: "..."

Her mom hates her so much!

In front of so many people, she didn't even give her any face!

If it was her usual temper, she would definitely turn around and leave. But thinking of her man and her mother-in-law's words, she gritted her teeth and stayed there. She refused to submit.

If it was up to Qiao Xiu Zhi to criticize, she would say this daughter was mentally ill!

Every time she stabbed others with words first. And when others did the same to her, she immediately showed an expression that people all over the world had wronged her!

Truly treating herself as a princess and the whole world must go her way?

It was a disgusting sight to see!

Some people considered how today was a joyous day and came over to persuaded: "Oh, how could mother and daughter have an overnight feud? Alright, alright, let's all take one step back. Hong Mei should be tired after coming so far, go in and have a rest."

Qiao Xiu Zhi did not speak.

There was only one person in this world who can make her bow her head. That was her husband, Xue Chuan.

Other? Haha!

Seeing that her mom didn't speak, Qiao Hong Mei was so angry that her chest hurt again. Still, she followed other people's words and walked into Qiao's old house.

After entering the yard, Qiao Hong Mei felt more and more uncomfortable when she saw Qiao Hong Xia's feeling-at-home appearance.

"Third Elder Sister, why are you here? Oh, I forgot. I heard that you got divorced and went home? It couldn't be true, right?" Qiao Hong Mei exclaimed as if she was "surprised".

Qiao Hong Xia's face sank and responded: "Hong Mei, if you want to have a wedding wine today, I advise you not to make trouble. Otherwise I don't mind making your face swollen. Even when today is a joyous day for Second Elder Brother, I will not be polite with you!"

Qiao Hong Xia and this fourth younger sister never gotten along with each other since they were young.

This person had a petty hearts since she was a child. Qiao Hong Xia suffered a lot due to her when she was a child!

Today, she clearly knew that it was her Second Elder Brother's joyous day and still made trouble as soon as she came. If she really dared to stirred something up, she wouldn't be polite to her!

Qiao Hong Mei's face flushed: "Third Elder Sister, did I say something wrong? Did you not get divorced? Or did you not go home?"

Qiao Zhen Min came over and stated coldly, "Fourth Elder Sister, are you sure you want to persist on making trouble?"

Qiao Hong Mei was trembling with anger!

In this family, she was always like an outsider. No one will stand by her!

It was because of them that she felt unjust in her heart!

But after changing the angle, and her heart suddenly became proud.

The wicked will get their punishment. In this family, the divorced got divorced or lose their daughter. Truly deserved it!

At this moment, Qiao Zhen Jun came out holding Qiao Zhen Guo's arm.

During happy events, people were full of spirit.

Today's Qiao Zhen Jun is wearing a green military uniform and a bridegroom flower on his chest. It made him look taller and handsome.

"Oh, the groom is here!"

"Hahaha, congratulations! congratulations!"

Seeing Qiao Zhen Jun, everyone smiled and congratulated him.

As long as one's brain wasn't in water, one won't speak rude words at this time to save others' face on a day like today. Otherwise, don't blame others for making troubles on their family's happy event!

Qiao Zhen Jun was full of energy. His rosy face smiled and thanked everyone.

Before Qiao Hong Mei came, she heard that her Second Elder Brother was no longer paralyzed. She didn't see it with her own eyes, so she didn't believe it. Now she did, she was completely shocked.

It was wonderful like this. Her Second Elder Brother had healed. She can get him to make furniture for her like before.

That's right. She can get him to make some furniture. Then she'll take it out and sell it to others. Of course, the money for transfer belonged to her alone!

Her eyes spun around. The corner of her mouth twitched up: "Second Elder Brother, congratulations! I didn't expect you to stand up. I thought you could only be a paralyzed person for your whole life!"

Qiao Zhen Jun: "..."

Everyone: "..."

It was better to not speak!

Qiao Zhen Guo had a stupid mouth and often made Wan Chun Ju vomit blood. Still, he never spoke out in malice. So everyone can't get angry if they were angry with him.

But what Qiao Hong Mei said was just like the breath of someone who didn't brush their teeth. The stench was unpleasant!

Qiao Hong Xia came over, pulled her, and said, "If you can't speak, don't speak. No one will think you are mute!"

Qiao Hong Mei flushed with anger: "You...!"

Qiao Zhen Jun's face was also a little ugly. With his gentle personality, he couldn't say harsh words.

He turned around and pushed the bicycle. With his Eldest Brother and Fifth Younger brother, he went out to pick up the bride from Lin's house.

Seeing that Qiao Zhen Jun had pushed the bicycle, everyone started making noise again.

"Qiao Family really values Lin Family very much. At such a close distance, they still use a bicycle!"

"Ain't that right! When Fang Xiao Juan married into Wang Family, and she didn't even have a banquet!"

"Then why didn't you mention the fact that Fang Xiao Juan didn't bring any dowry. Oh, that's not right. She brought an oil bottle !"

"Enough you guys. Why mention that woman on such a day? It would be bad if Qiao Family heard it!"

The crowd didn't say anything then.

Having a bicycle these days was something to be quite proud of. Even when one have money, they may not be able to buy it.

When most people get married, they use up all kinds of contacts to borrow a bicycle from others. Still, most people can't borrow it.

Qiao Family and Lin Family lived so close together. Everyone thought they would definitely not borrow a bicycle.

Fang Xiao Juan hid behind a big tree and watched a rosy-faced Qiao Zhen Jun pushing a bicycle. She almost clenched her teeth to shatters in hatred!

Infuriating to death!

When Qiao Zhen Jun married her, there was no bicycle!

The wedding banquet wasn't so big!

Fang Xiao Juan held her stomach. She felt her stomach throbbing with anger.

Along the way, children followed behind him with merry and laughter as he headed to Lin's house.

When Qiao Zhen Jun reached Lin's house, he saw one, two, three, four, five figure as soon as he entered the courtyard. Lin Hui's five brothers were standing in a row at the door of the courtyard.

His heart trembled and instantly felt his legs went a little weak: "Eldest Brother, Second Elder Brother, Third Elder Brother, Fourth Elder Brother, Fifth Elder Brother."

When everyone heard him call out this row of brothers, they couldn't help laughing.

"I said Zhen Jun, Lin Hui has five older brothers. If you dare to bully Lin Hui in the future, you have to consider it carefully!"

Qiao Zhen Jun's cold sweat was about to break down: "Don't dare. How could I possibly bully Lin Hui!"

"Oh, putting down the husband's steel down so soon. That can't do old Second Qiao. You have lost all of our men's faces!"

"Hahaha... Go away, Gou Sheng. You're a stinky man who doesn't have a woman, what face can you have?"

Hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.

Seeing that Qiao Zhen Jun was so tactful, Lin Hui's five elder brothers didn't make it difficult for him. Just 'warned' a few words and quickly let him in.

...

At Qiao's old house.

Da Qiao was like a little princess, surrounded by many children. Her face was flushed red and her eyebrows were curved as she smiled very happily.

One little girl spoke, "Da Qiao, I heard that all stepmoms in the world are vicious. Aren't you afraid?"

Da Qiao shook her head and softly replied, "Auntie Hui is very nice. She's not vicious. Look at the clothes I'm wearing. Auntie Hui made it for me!"

Everyone looked at the floral dress on Da Qiao's body. The red color were bright. While the style was never seen before. They were very envious.

That little girl continued: "Isn't it just a floral dress. She buy you out like this? Da Qiao, she is trying to buy you, don't be deceived!"

Da Qiao wasn't angry: "No. Auntie Hui has always doted me very much. She said she will make many beautiful dresses for me in the future!"

The little girl rolled her eyes, not knowing what to do next.

She turned her head to look at the big tree.

Fang Xiao Juan, who was behind the big tree, saw her action and mentally scolded her idiocy!

Da Qiao noticed the little girl's movements and asked curiously, "Why do you always look over there? Is there anything over there?"

The little girl scratched her head and answered, "I'll tell you. Your previous mom gave me a few fruit candies and asked me to tell you what I said before. I've finished speaking now. I'm leaving."

After she finished speaking, she skipped away.

Fang Xiao Juan, who was behind the big tree, was so angry that her mouth was crooked!

Accepted her candy and it end up like this!? Don't let her see her next time!

Now that she was discovered, Fang Xiao Juan didn't plan to hide. She glanced around and found that there was no one from Qiao Family around. So she showed her head from behind the tree.

"Da Qiao, come here!"

When Da Qiao saw her mom, she froze for a moment. Then she uncomfortably called out, "Mom."

She hadn't seen her mom for a long time. She was a little sad when she heard that she had remarried. Afterward, she was too occupied.

She had to learn embroidery and cooking with her grandfather. She had to learn five-animal exercise with her grandmother too. There was school. So she had no time to think of her mom.

Fang Xiao Juan watched her greet her and snorted coldly: "So you still remember that I'm your mom? Still not coming over? You want me to go over and invite you over?"

Da Qiao walked over slowly, but stopped one meter away from her: "What do you want with me?"

Seeing her defensive behavior, Fang Xiao Juan gritted her teeth angrily: "I told you to come here. Didn't you hear?"

Her voice was sharp and high-pitched. Along with this harsh voice, her expression also became hideous.

When Da Qiao saw her like this, she retreated a few steps back instead of going over: "If there's nothing else, I will go back. If I don't, my grandmother will be looking for me in a while."

Unexpectedly, she knew how to use Qiao Xiu Zhi to threaten her after not seeing each other for a long time!

Fang Xiao Juan gritted her teeth angrily: "I'm telling you, you can't call that woman Lin Hui 'Mom'. Do you hear me?"

Da Qiao didn't answer.

She was too shy to call Auntie Hui 'Mom'. But that didn't mean she didn't want to. So she wouldn't promise her mom.

Seeing that she didn't answer her, Fang Xiao Juan was furious: "What? Do you still want to call someone else Mom? You white-eyed wolf! I have raised you for so many years and this is how you repay me?"

Da Qiao bit her lip and replied, "But Younger Sister calls Uncle Wang Dad. Why didn't you say she is a white-eyed wolf?"

Fang Xiao Juan choked to death: "..."

It sounded so reasonable that it was impossible to refute.

"Can you compare with your younger sister? Forget it, let's drop this matter. Let me tell you, all stepmoms in this world are black-hearted. When that Lin Hui enters the door, she will beat you and swear at you. Once they have other children, they will kick you out of the house. So..."

Da Qiao interrupted her loudly: "No! You are talking nonsense! Auntie Hui won't beat me or scold me. Only you beat me and scold me. I won't talk to you!"

Fang Xiao Juan was so mad that she jumped up and wanted to catch Da Qiao.

At this moment, Qiao Xiu Zhi's voice sounded from Qiao's old house: "Da Qiao, who are you talking to?"

Fang Xiao Juan's heart trembled. She turned around and hurried dashed away.

Qiao Xiu Zhi came out and found Da Qiao standing there alone. She called her again.

Da Qiao hurriedly turned around and ran over: "Grandmother, my mom just came over. She said that Auntie Hui is a stepmother and would beat me and scold me in the future."

Qiao Xiu Zhi inwardly cursed. She lowered her head and responded, "Don't listen to her nonsense. Your Auntie Hui is a gentle person. She will not beat you. If she dares to treat you badly, come and look for Grandmother, understand? "

"Okay, Grandmother is the best!" Da Qiao raised her little face. Her clear black eyes gleaming with joy again.

...

Fang Xiao Juan ran as if a ghost was chasing her.

She returned to Wang's house out of breath. Just as she was about to sit down, Wang Xin Sheng came in with a dark face.

"Where did you go just now?" Wang Xin Sheng stared at her with a pair of sharp eyes.

Fang Xiao Juan's heart trembled as her voice trembled, "I... I didn't go anywhere in particular. Just casually walking around."

"Casually walking around? Casually end up at Qiao's house?" Wang Xin Sheng's face was even more terrible. It was gloomy and scary. "What? Today is the day of your ex-husband's remarriage. Are you reluctant?"

Fang Xiao Juan shook her head as if it was chopping onion: "No...no, why would I be reluctant?"

She knew she shouldn't have gone. But she just couldn't help it.

She kept hearing people talk about how much importance Qiao Zhen Jun attached to Lin Hui. She felt very uncomfortable. She had to see it with her own eyes.

But after seeing it, she was even more uncomfortable!

"SLAP!"

Wang Xin Sheng slapped her face and viciously declared: "Fang Xiao Juan, I'm telling you this now. If you dare to put a green hat on me, see how I'll kill you!"

"You dare... hit me?"

Fang Xiao Juan never thought that Wang Xin Sheng would hit her. This slap almost slapped her face crooked!

Wang Xin Sheng smirkingly looked: "Why won't I dare to hit you?"

Wang Xin Sheng was a scumbag through and through!

Why did his previous wife die? It was because she had to go to the river to wash clothes with a big belly in winter. Then she slipped and died of dystocia and hemorrhage.

The previous wife had received domestic violence. In the countryside, it was quite normal for a man to beat a woman though. As long as no one was killed, no one would take it seriously.

The woman, who was beaten, also didn't take it seriously. After the ruckus, they made up again a few days later.

But Fang Xiao Juan had been married to Qiao Zhen Jun for so many years and no matter how overboard she was, Qiao Zhen Jun had never touched her. She almost forgot that other men can beat women!

"I can't live anymore. I have children for you and you still beat me... God, I can't live anymore..."

After being stunned, Fang Xiao Juan laid on the ground and sprawled.

Wang Xin Sheng glanced at her and turned away.

If it weren't for the fact that she had his baby in her belly, today wouldn't be a slap in the face!

Fang Xiao Juan cried for a long time and no one came to comfort her.
