From Cultivator to Widow - Chapter 126
Just as Zhang Baoguo thought, after Su Qianming found out about this, he replied coldly with two words: known.
Seeing these two words, Zhang Baoguo sighed and answered unexpectedly, but he felt a little distressed, distressed for his grandfather and grandmother.
It turned out that when he didn’t know, the grandparents had suffered so much. In front of their juniors, they didn’t show it at all. They were kind, just like all the other elders. They were kind and caring, which made people feel warm. Warm, grandpa and grandma have been hiding these things. He has never heard his mother say anything about this. They should have completely cut the past from the present and did not hesitate to travel far away.
Even if he had guessed Grandpa’s reaction, he needed to tell him about it in time. If Grandpa wanted to see him for the last time, he would still be able to fulfill his wish in time.
Now that my grandfather knew about it, he put it down and didn’t care about it anymore.
Grandpa has made a decision, he doesn’t need to do anything else.
Su Qianming’s reply to Zhang Baoguo was only two simple words, but he didn’t need to tell his grandson how powerful the ups and downs in his heart were.
He thought about a lot of things from his childhood, and the indifference and ruthlessness of the person who was obviously his biological father.
Su Zhong didn’t think that the family affairs at home were so complicated. He was the one who got the telegram. He saw the content first. Talk about the past, now let your dad calm down.”
Su Zhong nodded silently and sighed.
That’s what happened to their house.
In this way, my parents are still young masters and young ladies.
Can’t imagine.
That kind of life is far away from him, and now it’s a bit like a dream, with an illusory sense of hanging in the air.
——
Su An brought Zhang Weiguo and the three to Wenxueqing as guests. They walked around as if they were relatives. Su An gave him two clothes. There are all kinds of food and drink.
When they went there, Wen Yanshi and You Yafang were there, and they had already come back to accompany Wen Xueqing to celebrate the New Year.
Every year during the Chinese New Year, their family will move here from their own residence to celebrate the New Year together.
You Yafang used to look down on Su An’s business, but now she has changed a lot and can look at this matter without tinted glasses.
Wen Qingqing saw these things, and said in a reproachful tone: “Why do you buy so many things? There’s nothing missing at home.”
Zhang Weiguo also picked out a gift and sent it to him. He has officially graduated from work this year and can earn money. If he wanted to give him a gift, he was fished out of the skyrocketing stream by the literature.
What he sent was a set of tea cups that he had specially bought and exchanged, as well as a few ancient books, which were well preserved, and just happened to bump into them.
Su Hui didn’t respond to his words, Zhang Weiguo smiled: “It’s not just spending money to make money. If you don’t spend money after the New Year, what’s the point of making money?”
Dawei flicked his tail, and turned around twice very familiarly, declared his hegemony, and found a comfortable place to lie down.
It is already an old man among the dogs, but it has not changed much from before. It is still a mighty big dog. People who are afraid of dogs watch the calf fighting, and the little **** will take the initiative to strike up a conversation.
There was a lot of food on the table, and everyone sat together eating and gossiping. It was easy, and the topic turned to Zhang Weiguo.
Literature Qing: “How about you go on a blind date? Do you like it?”
At the beginning, when Wenxueqing asked this question, Zhang Weiguo would be embarrassed, and even his face was hot, but now, he shook his head very naturally: “We were almost fate.”
Wen Wenqing: “It’s almost fate, so don’t worry, you are not too old, you can still find it slowly, don’t worry, don’t worry.” He smiled cheerfully, he was only twenty after the new year, and his age is really not high. big.
Hearing this, You Yafang’s expression changed, and she looked at Zhang Weiguo: “What do you like? Tell me, maybe I have a suitable one here, and I will introduce it to you.”
Zhang Weiguo’s conditions were really good, and You Yafang looked at Su An again: “What do you think of your daughter-in-law?”
Su An quietly poked at the sunflower seeds, and when she heard this, she raised her eyelids: “I don’t have any opinions, he likes it. As long as there are no personality problems, I can do it.”
You Yafang remembered what she said before, she really didn’t plan to intervene, then if it was about a daughter-in-law who couldn’t get along, it would be difficult to get along in the future.
Su Hui didn’t lift her head: “I don’t get along with her day and night, they each have their own lives, what does it matter.”
With the temperament of the mother-in-law, Avon’s heart is really warm now. The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is a big hurdle.
She immediately counted the girls she knew in her mind to see if there were any suitable ones.
About 20 years old, the same age, the same educational background, the appearance should not be too bad, the speech is witty, the common language, the independent person, and the idea of doing things.
Listening to Zhang Weiguo’s conditions, You Yafang thinks it’s no wonder that his condition is still close to fate. Dare to love is to have high vision, but it doesn’t matter, high vision is not a bad thing. Didn’t she have high vision at the beginning?
It took a long time to fall in love with Wen Yanshi, and it turned out that her vision was correct. The two supported each other together, and the downs were overcome together. The family and He Meimei were envious of others.
Zhang Anguo and Zhang Dingguo snickered beside him, and got a warning from Zhang Weiguo’s eyes: What are you two laughing at?
They will be here in a few years. They are still young, but when they come out to work, they will not be small. Major life events will be put on the agenda.
“By the way, Brother Lin, I met his partner. He is a good person.” Zhang Anguo thought of Lin Jingnan.
“She’s a very refreshing girl.” Wen Xue smiled: “He should have a good thing soon, and he’s not too young.”
Zhang Weiguo: “I have already received the letter. He will do good things after the new year.”
Literature nodded: “Then you can still attend his wedding banquet.”
Su An nodded: “Yes, on the sixth day of the new year, I haven’t posted a wedding invitation yet, it should be soon.”
“The sixth day of the new year, that’s soon…”
This year’s New Year’s Eve was made by Zhang Weiguo. He said that he had a job and could take care of things. Su An saw him like this, so he handed things over to him, let go, let go completely.
Seeing that he was busy, he was looking out for things to be used for the New Year, and he also gave her gifts. Although his mother made more money than him, what he gave to his mother was his own will.
What he gave Su An was a small cauldron, which was an ancient relic placed in the Taoist temple before. He knew that his mother was interested in Taoism. There was a time when his mother read Taoist classics for a long time, and he accidentally read it at that time. When I arrived, I secretly worried for a while, for fear that my mother would want to become a nun.
Just thinking about it now makes me laugh.
In addition to this little tripod, there are also several new journals, which he specially commissioned to buy, thinking that his mother would give up her previous homework when she was doing business?
Mom is a person who thoroughly carries out the two sentences of never-ending learning and living to the end.
When he went to the SAR for research before, he saw his mother’s study, where he saw the books that his mother often flipped through. His heart was shocked.
Moms have worked so hard. As young people and young people with vigorous energy, of course they can’t slack off.
The preparations for the New Year’s goods are very rich. Zhang Anguo wrote the couplets and the like. His words are getting better and better. Comparing with the couplets of the previous year, we can see obvious progress.
The welfare in Zhang Weiguo’s work unit is very good. A lot of welfare is distributed during the Chinese New Year. In addition, they are not short of money. They spend a lot of money to buy New Year’s goods. At this time, some things require tickets, and some You don’t need tickets for things. Most of the self-employed people who stand on the roadside don’t need tickets. Supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores basically need tickets, especially for some rare and valuable things.
Zhang Weiguo’s votes are basically spent for the New Year.
Compared to this year, Su An was very leisurely, so he helped make dumplings together, and made some efforts to make them delicious. Zhang Weiguo took care of the rest himself.
I feel that I have cultivated a good man who can go to the hall and enter the kitchen.
I’m suddenly a little proud to think that way.
——
The atmosphere of the Zhang family’s New Year’s Eve this year is a bit weird. Zhang Fenghua knows the reason.
She didn’t say anything in front of her grandparents, but she was supportive in her heart. She also kept some things from her family. She now has a partner she is dating, but she doesn’t plan to tell her family now, she herself doesn’t know them Whether there is a future or not, she plans to wait for them to work before confirming. If it can really be settled, it will not be too late to tell the family.
Zhang Jinhua also knew the reason, he also did not speak, but Wu Chuchu had something to say, saying more than once: “I think we should have a good relationship with the second aunt, it is not easy for the second aunt, alone outside, several children are far away from her It’s farther away, and we’re relatively close, so we communicate more and connect with each other.”
The second aunt is so capable, and her children are so promising. Seeing that the future is bright, of course, she must try her best to have a good relationship.
She said these words in front of Zhang Jinhua, but Zhang Jinhua didn’t say a word. She said too much, and he slapped his face.
Seeing his reaction, Wu Chuchu didn’t say it in front of him, but instead said it in front of Zhang Fenghua.
The closest person in their family to the second aunt’s family is the sister-in-law Zhang Fenghua.
Regarding the sister-in-law’s words, Zhang Fenghua hummed An’an in agreement, but did not give a precise word.
She feels that the current state of getting along is the most suitable, and she does not want to change for the time being.
Zhang Gen didn’t notice anything wrong with the atmosphere at home. This year, he didn’t have a good time.
It seemed that the family was reunited, but he was thinking of his second child.
The second child is the most promising of his three sons. Compared with the older one and the younger one, the middle child is at a disadvantage because it is easy to ignore him. He has been stubborn and has a bad temper since he was a child. Some things have been decided by themselves, and they are unwilling to change.
When he wanted to marry Su Hui, his wife was reluctant, and there was a lot of trouble. She already had a daughter-in-law that she liked, but the second child was unwilling. In the end, he did as he wished and married Su. The girl of the house enters the door.
What was he thinking then?
Oh, he thinks it doesn’t matter, it’s all the same, and to be honest, the conditions of the Su family are relatively good, although her parents have no relatives and are weak, but her father knows craftsmanship and does not worry about food.
Then the days passed, and in the blink of an eye, the second child went to join the army, and he was very proud at that time.
Worried and proud.
He is a good one.
Then he sacrificed, leaving only his daughter-in-law with four grandchildren. At that time, he was a little worried that she would not be able to keep her. She was still young and could be born if she remarried, but she didn’t leave, and she built a house with her The children lived so safely and smoothly, and unexpectedly, they cultivated all four children into talents and honored their ancestors. It’s really a glorious ancestor. In the nearby ten miles and eight townships, when talking about the Zhang family, it is inevitable to mention this matter, go out to buy things in the town, and if anyone knows where he is, they will all come to talk to him and ask him. long face.
If this was in the past, it would be equivalent to the four grandchildren below him, all of whom were admitted to the rank of scholars. Of course, it was a great deed for honoring the ancestors. During that time, he was walking in the air.
It’s worth it, this life is worth it, he himself is average, but he has a few promising grandsons.
At that time, he was very satisfied with his daughter-in-law, and he also knew that the second daughter-in-law was a great contributor to the achievements of several grandchildren.
Then, the eldest grandson and the eldest granddaughter have been admitted one after another, which is even more glorious.
Previously, the four grandchildren belonged to the second family. They lived with the elder family. Now the elder family has also passed the entrance examination. Their Zhang family is only one room away from the third family. His family is completely up.
After that, the second daughter-in-law resigned from her job. Now that he has been so long, he is not so angry anymore, but he is not willing to bring it up. Even if Wei Guo called him and told him, what would happen, in fact, his wings were hardened.
It would be great if the second child was still there. If the second child was there, how could he hide it from them, he must have a discussion with them.
He will also think of them more, and think of them at the first time when something good happens.
It’s a pity that the soldiers defending their families and the country are no longer there.
He thought of Zhang Ping, who was also homesick at this time.
He saw Zhang Baoguo’s appearance and three sons from the wanted list. What are they like now?
And his daughter-in-law, how is his daughter-in-law now? His parents, a few brothers, every grass and tree in his hometown…
During the Chinese New Year, homesickness flooded in like a tide, invading his brain, and he could only immerse himself in this atmosphere.
Now that his level has risen, he also manages dozens of people.
He doesn’t like to talk, he stutters, but it’s not that he can’t talk, he can do things, he can do things, and if he has military merit, he will be promoted to a level. He already has a foundation here, and undercover agents can gain greater value.
He is willing to continue to be here even to pass news to the country, but Tie Han also has tenderness, and he will also miss home…
When the war is over, it will be good, but the country is surrounded by wolves, and they can only take up arms and defend their national territory.
——
Before returning for Chinese New Year, Zhou Xiaoqing went to find her younger brother, her second brother, Zhou Xiaodong, who was a teacher in the provincial capital. He had already married and had children and had his own small family in the provincial capital. He did not go back this year for Chinese New Year. She I went to find him. The house they were assigned was a clean and tidy building. Although the place was not big, it was more than enough for their family of three. They were respected teachers with established staff, and the future was bright.
They are brothers and sisters, but her sister is living the worst life. It was not like this at the beginning, when did it become what it is now?
Did it start when she went to the countryside?
Zhou Xiaoqing remembered back then, if only Xie Rui had accepted her at that time, Xie Rui went back to the city ahead of time and was admitted to the university, now I don’t know what level of cadre she is, she didn’t accept herself, she was here Under the circumstances at that time, he chose to marry Zhang Gui, who had been pursuing him enthusiastically.
He could let himself leave that house so as not to be implicated by the family at that time. This choice was the right one. She had always believed so before, but now, she doubted that if she hadn’t married him, she would have survived that period of time. She can go back to town.
Back in the city, she might be able to marry a city man.
When she could go back, why didn’t she choose to leave here and go back to her hometown?
Because she already has a bond here. She has two children. If she hadn’t given birth and married Zhang Gui, she wouldn’t have had such a bond, right?
Zhou Xiaoqing regretted that this kind of life was not what she wanted.
When she thought that the future would be like this, she panicked.
First from Su An and then from her brother, she received a double blow, which made her doubt her previous decision.
This year, she lived in a daze, and before she knew it, this year passed. She didn’t even take a good look at her two children, talk, and come back to her senses. She was already standing at work, her face raised. Her smile was mechanical and lackluster. Her colleague was still beside her and said to her, “Are you feeling unwell? Don’t force it. Your face is really ugly.”
She found the mirror and looked at herself haggard in the mirror.
Is this who you are now?
No, it’s not like that.
How could she be so old? She clenched her fists and cheered herself up, but something started to sprout in her heart.
She met Su An, and on occasions she hadn’t thought of, the owner told them in advance that the owner might come to inspect. The new year is over, so let them cheer up and be in the best spirit. The state greeted the boss, and they also specially changed into new clothes for this reason.
On that day, the boss did come to inspect, but next to the boss, there was a person who made her whole body stiff. Isn’t that Su An?
How could she be here? Compared to the boss, who is full of jewels and exudes the unique charm of a mature woman, Su An doesn’t have much jewelry on her body. She wears a shirt and has a capable atmosphere. It’s not inferior at all.
Judging from the intimacy of their chatting and laughing, they had a good relationship, and the blood in her whole body solidified at that moment. Especially when her eyes passed from her direction, did she see herself?
Did you see yourself standing beside him obediently waiting for them to inspect?
Zhou Xiaoqing lowered her head, her hands unknowingly squeezed into fists, and before she knew it, his neatly trimmed nails pinch deep blood marks on her palm, but she didn’t feel any pain at all.
She felt ashamed.
It feels like she has no face to appear in front of her anymore.
She insisted on getting off work. If she left early, someone would definitely come back to ask about the situation. If Su An hadn’t seen her before, she would have seen it.
During this time, I heard a bunch of other people whispering.
“Who was that person next to the boss just now? He’s very good-looking.”
“Yes, yes, who have you not seen before?”
“Is it the top?”
“No, I heard that it is the boss’s friend. It seems that there is some cooperation. It is not very clear.”
“It’s a friend, it doesn’t look ordinary.”
“Friend of the boss, what do you think, the clothes on your body are inconspicuous, but the material is not bad…”
It turned out to be a friend. Her mind was messed up and she didn’t eat anything after work. She went back to where she lived, crawled onto the bed, and cried a lot, her eyes were red and swollen.
She muffled all her cries into the pillow and quilt. Even when she cried, she didn’t dare to cry aloud, for fear of attracting attention from others.
What if someone asked her to cry? What should she say, she must not say such a shameful thing.
After crying, looking at the red, swollen and haggard eyes in the mirror, but still beautiful, Zhou Xiaoqing’s original bud in her heart was like encountering nectar, and it quickly absorbed and grew.
Zhou Xiaoqing met a wealthy businessman in Hong Kong. She was a few years older than her. She was dressed in a straight suit, elegant, and wore gold-rimmed glasses. She was polite and polite. He passed by, saw her, and gave her a ride.
After that, they caught up. As a woman, she has been courted by many women since she was a child, and she understood what the other party wanted to do.
She hadn’t thought about it before, and thought she didn’t understand, but now, she’s thinking about it, why not? Everyone has the right to pursue a better life. The current life cannot satisfy her. While she is not too old now and has capital, she can still strive hard for it. She could only accept her fate.
She didn’t want to accept her fate.
Su An was a little surprised.
Fang Kun, a native of Hong Kong, came here to open a radio factory and made radios. He had no business dealings with her, but there was someone who connected with her. We met at the party, so I still remember that he heard others say about his situation. He has a wife and daughter in Hong Kong, what is the situation now?
Looking at Zhou Xiaoqing who was smiling in the jewelry store in front of her, her eyes flashed, she held Fang Kun’s arm and smiled sweetly, and at this time, Zhou Xiaoqing should still be at work.
She is doing this now, does Zhang Gui know?
I probably don’t know, but it’s in the same place. It’s big and big, and it’s small.
And Zhang Gui has always been very interested in Zhou Xiaoqing, will he not find Zhou Xiaoqing’s strangeness?
“What are you looking at?” Wang Haiwen put down her clothes and walked over.
Su Hui turned around and said, “It’s nothing, I just remembered something. By the way, I haven’t congratulated you yet.”
Wang Haiwen rolled her eyes. She didn’t know Zhou Xiaoqing, so she didn’t find anything wrong. After hearing this, she smiled: “We are happy together…”
