Feng Yanhong blinked at Feng Yanjun, who looked aggrieved, as a sign of comfort. Feng Yanjun bared her teeth and smiled, and continued to eat.
"You should think about it yourself. Our family has no other connections in the city. If you want to marry into the city again, it won't be that easy."
"If you don't want to get married, you won't get married. The city isn't as good as you think, and the farm isn't as good either."
Feng Yanhong answered casually while holding the bowl.
"Mom, don't feel sorry for me. I always feel that Aunt Miao's house is not as good as she said."
Bai Xiu paused for a moment while picking up vegetables with his chopsticks, and looked up at Feng Yanhong.
"When did you miss what Aunt Miao said? If you don't want to marry, don't marry. Anyway, you can just make your own decision."
Feng Yanhong raised an eyebrow. Her mother really didn't trust Miao Guizhi. This is not okay!
She still had to find a way to reveal the words she overheard today to her mother. She had to help her mother realize Miao Guizhi's face.
"Mom, if their family is really worth ten thousand yuan, how can they wear an old jacket all the time? Her family, Zheng Qiaohui, still picks up my old clothes to wear."
Bai Xiu picked up a piece of green vegetables with chopsticks without raising his head.
"That's because they are frugal. Otherwise, how could you save so much money?"
Feng Yanhong pursed her lips and continued: "She said she had a household worth ten thousand yuan, but she just said that with bare teeth. None of us have ever seen it."
"And it's not the same as her family's income. Even if Uncle Zheng is a senior technician, he only earns more than 60 yuan a month. Zheng Guoqing has only earned 42 yuan a month since he started working.
wages.”
Feng Yanhong glanced at her mother and saw that she was a little distracted. Feng Yanhong continued to speak calmly:
"The whole family has to eat and drink, and they also have to support Zheng Qiaohui in technical secondary school. For someone like Zheng Guoqing, the little money he earns may not be enough for him to spend on himself."
She is not without contrast. In the past, her parents worked, and the meat they ate was home-raised, and the vegetables were grown in front of and behind the house. In winter, they stored some radishes and cabbages in the cellar and dried them in the sun.
If you have to dry vegetables and pickle sauerkraut, you won't be able to save much money throughout the year.
What's more, in the situation of the Zheng family, if she could save money, Miao Guizhi wouldn't be so diligent in coming back and forth.
Bai Xiu held the rice bowl, and her eating speed slowed down obviously. Her eyes were dull and thoughtful, and she was obviously settling accounts.
Seeing that her words had an effect, Feng Yanhong began to eat quietly. Although her mother was illiterate, she could calculate accounts accurately and understand it better than those literate people.
It's not that she didn't want to tell all those things, but saying it so rashly would arouse her mother's suspicion, and it seemed that her mother still trusted Miao Guizhi.
She didn't want to have a conflict with her mother over this matter. It would be great if she could enter the city smoothly.
What kind of situation the Zheng family is in, those neighbors who love gossip know best.
Thinking of this, Feng Yanhong's eyes darkened. Zheng's father was an extremely selfish man who favored sons over daughters. Now the life of Miao Guizhi and Zheng Qiaohui, mother and daughter, was not easy.
She used to sympathize with them, but now...hehe!
The way mother and daughter live their lives is something they brought upon themselves, no one else is to blame!
Feng Yanjun ate this meal with both eyes and nose, and he always felt that his sister was different from before.
My sister used to firmly believe in Aunt Miao's words. How come she suddenly figured it out?
Is there anything else he doesn't know about?
Feng Taizhou calmly looked back and forth between his wife and daughter, and seemed to have something on his mind.
******
Miao Guizhi went to the police station to pick up Zheng Qiaohui. Zheng Guoqing went to see Zhang Meili with a wounded face. Zhang Meili's eyes were red and swollen, and when she saw Zheng Guoqing, she cried miserably again.
"Why did you come here~wuwu~"
Zhang Meili was wearing a blue shirt dress, which was very wrinkled. The makeup on her face had long been worn out, and her hair was even more messy. She still had her previous foreign style and pretty appearance.
Zheng Guoqing felt his heart was broken. He hurriedly stepped forward, but was stopped by the police.
"Aren't I trying to find a way for you? Your father doesn't want to come and he's also stopping your mother from coming. That vicious woman Feng Yanhong..."
Zheng Guoqing carefully glanced at the policeman next to him and instantly swallowed back all the words he wanted to scold the Feng family.
"Meili, if you wait a little longer, I will definitely find a way to take you out."
"You, didn't you say anything to Feng Yanhong? Didn't you say that she obeyed your words?"
Zhang Meili looked at Zheng Guoqing with a look of grievance on her face.
"That woman actually asked me to write a letter of apology to her, asked me to apologize to her publicly at work, and asked me to compensate her for medical expenses, as well as compensation for lost work and mental loss. She wanted to torture me to death!
National Day brother~”
"I don't want to apologize, let alone apologize to her at work... Wuwu~ I, I am doing this all for you!"
Zhang Meili's eyes were red, swollen and dull from crying for too long. At this time, the appearance of pear blossoms with rain was a bit ugly in the eyes of others.
But Zheng Guoqing's eyes showed great pity, and he was even a little at a loss.
"I, I will think of a way to raise money. I will go find Feng Yanhong and ask her..."
"Brother Guoqing~ Do you really have any idea? I don't want to stay here anymore. It's too scary. There are rats. There are actually rats!"
"You have to hurry up and find a way to get me out. I really don't want to stay any longer, wuwuwu~"
"Don't worry, Meili, I will definitely find a way for you, don't worry!"
Zheng Guoqing solemnly assured Zhang Meili and felt relieved for a while. When the police reminded him that the time was up, Zheng Guoqing walked out of the door with a gloomy face. When he saw Miao Guizhi and his daughter, his face instantly turned darker.
"Brother, are you here to pick me up?"
When Zheng Qiaohui sees Zheng Guoqing, she habitually goes forward to please him. This is a survival rule she has learned over the years.
"No!" Zheng Guoqing did not hide his disgust for the mother and daughter at all, and did not even want to stay for a moment.
"Brother, what happened to your face? Who did you fight with?"
Zheng Qiaohui seemed not to notice the gloom on Zheng Guoqing's face, and chased after Zheng Guoqing and kept asking questions.
"On National Day, I plan to go to Feng's house again in the afternoon. You and Yanhong can't just let it go. Your father has already told his colleagues about your engagement. If you let it go, your father
It’s time to lose face.”
Miao Guizhi also followed closely, chasing after Zheng Qiaohui to persuade Zheng Guoqing.
"Mom! You don't even know how hateful that woman Feng Yanhong is. She deliberately told the police yesterday that her injuries were serious just to cause trouble. Why do you still want her to marry my brother!"
Zheng Guoqing paused and slowed down, but did not say anything. Instead, Zheng Qiaohui became excited.
"You kid...what do you know! Don't talk nonsense, it's obviously Zhang Meili who acted as a monster and caused harm to you and your brother."
"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. We'll meet in front of the supply and marketing cooperative in the afternoon and go to Feng's house together."
Zheng Guoqing did not want to argue with the mother and daughter, so his expression changed and he agreed to Miao Guizhi's suggestion.
