After the death of the man, Xiaoye had already found a new wife before Qiqi arrived. Even if she said that she was a chaste and fierce woman, no one would believe her.
Chen Changfu murmured in his heart, and a surge of anger rose in his chest.
Regardless of whether Xiaoye stole someone or not, no man wants to be talked about like this.
Besides, if there is no wind, there will be no waves, and if there is no wind, no one will say anything to Xiaoye if he keeps himself clean.
Since someone said it, there must be something wrong with her. Even if she is not flirting with others, she must be flirting with them.
When Chen Changfu was angry, he subconsciously wanted to turn around and leave. Unexpectedly, before he could move, the two people talking in front of him suddenly spotted him.
The three of them looked at each other, a little embarrassed.
The two of them thought it was bad to talk about people behind their backs, but Chen Changfu felt embarrassed. He reacted quickly, and the embarrassment only lasted a moment, and immediately said: "What a coincidence, are you going back to the village?"
The two saw the baggage beside him and said with a smile: "It seems that the county town is really making money. Buying so much will cost a lot of money, right?"
As he said that, he had already stepped forward to help him carry it: "We just have to go back, so I can help you carry it. You don't need to find a bullock cart."
Chen Changfu was a little confused. Reason told him that he shouldn't go with such people who talked about him behind his back, but he couldn't help but follow him. He explained: "Most of the things in here were used by me in the city. It would be a pity to throw them away.
This is a big package and a small package."
He really wanted to know why they were talking about Xiaoye like this.
But in fact, the two people were unwilling to talk about this face to face. Chen Changfu hinted that he would ask if anything strange happened in the village. The two picked up some quarrels between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and talked about the fight between husband and wife. They did not mention the Xiaoye family.
The weather has been hot recently, and it was already afternoon. There were many people enjoying the cool weather at the entrance of the village. When they saw Chen Changfu coming back with bags, they all gathered around to say hello.
Seeing that everyone's attitude towards him was the same as before, Chen Changfu gradually felt relieved.
Xiaoye received the news and quickly ran to the entrance of the village to pick him up. When he saw Chen Changfu, he immediately stepped forward and said with a smile: "Changfu, you are back."
To be honest, all the girls Chen Changfu saw in the county town these past six months were pretty pretty, at least more pretty than the women in this village.
But Mr. Ye...probably arrived in a hurry. He was still wearing an ordinary patched shirt, and a pink patch was sewn on his blue toes, not to mention too much wear.
Even though Chen Changfu already knew what Xiaoye looked like, when he actually saw it, he was inevitably a little disappointed.
No matter what he was thinking, he didn't show it on his face. In front of so many people, Chen Changfu didn't want to embarrass her. If the couple really quarreled, it would just be a joke for outsiders.
He didn't want to talk to the villagers and went back home with Xiaoye.
Chen Changfu was very excited after not going home for more than half a year. As soon as he entered the door, he saw two children squatting on the ground kicking sandbags.
There were many large and small grids drawn on the ground. Chen Changfu was a little unhappy when he saw it.
The main reason is that this is not his own child, but he has made his yard look ugly... His face looks a little ugly.
When Xiao Ye saw it, she explained with a smile: "Recently, all the children in the village like to kick sandbags. They are both half-grown and can't do much work. They play crazy at home every day, so I..."
She explained sincerely, but in Chen Changfu's ears, her words meant to blame him for not letting his children study.
Regarding this matter, Chen Changfu is not guilty at all. If he sends his children to study, the little money he has will be spent next year. But if he doesn't, with his current savings, he can be considered wealthy in the village.
To put it bluntly, this is not his own son, so why should he give it away?
Chen Changfu didn't say anything. He carried his baggage and walked in. When he opened the door of the main room, he heard a creak. He frowned and turned his head to look at the door. Only then did he realize that there was a thumb-width crack in the door panel.
"What's going on?"
He only replaced this door when he was building a house, less than a year ago.
You know, other people’s doors last for decades, how can they break down so quickly?
Xiao Ye was a little apologetic: "A few days ago, my nephew came over to play, and one of them had to be turned on and the other turned off... and that's what happened. But my elder brother said that this is easy to repair, and he will come to repair it in a few days. I guarantee that it will be restored as before.
"
Chen Changfu's face was as dark as water.
Why does his good door need to be repaired?
Sure enough, you should not marry Xiaoye!
He was unhappy. After putting down his baggage, he said, "It's too hot. Go and boil some water for me. I want to wash up."
Xiaoye hurriedly responded: "Are you hungry? When will you eat?"
Chen Changfu waved his hand: "I ate two steamed buns. I'm not too hungry. Let's eat together tonight."
Xiao Ye turned around and went to the kitchen, waiting for her to tell him to turn back all the way... When he came back so far, forgetting the two children, he should bring her a gift, right?
Not to mention expensive things like fabrics, new clothes, new shoes, rouge and gouache. Even just a hair tie is what he wants.
But until she entered the kitchen, she didn't hear anyone changing behind her. Xiaoye was very disappointed, and was looking forward to whether he would give it to her at night.
After Chen Changfu washed up, the sun was almost setting. Xiaoye was busy cooking.
After dinner, Chen Changfu took a fan to the entrance of the village to enjoy the cool weather.
Xiaoye: "..."
She was a little unwilling to do so, so she let the two children have a break while he was out, and she quickly went through the few bags Chen Changfu had brought.
A quilt, a pillow, two pairs of clothes from when I was working as a waiter, a bowl and a set of teapots, plus two sets of new clothes and a few pairs of shoes, and that's it.
Xiaoye didn't believe it, so he looked through it again, and found that everything belonged to Chen Changfu!
She sat on the ground and was stunned for a while, then put the things back as they were.
Then I went out to wash the dishes and boil water for my two children and myself to wash up, just like before.
Chen Changfu came back late at night and fell asleep.
Xiaoye didn't fall asleep the whole time, waiting for him to find her, but until snoring started to sound from the side, he didn't touch her either.
She stayed up all night, watching the moonlight shining through the window paper, until the sky dimmed and the sun peeked out. She got up and went to the kitchen to cook.
During breakfast, Chen Changfu frowned at the gruel and asked, "Why is there so little food?"
Xiaoye's face remained as usual and continued to serve the two children: "You only have so much food left. During this period, we, mother and son, all drank this. By the way, we haven't eaten meat in nearly three months.
, do you want to buy some?"
Chen Changfu was holding the porridge, drank two mouthfuls, and said: "I haven't been tired recently, what kind of meat should I eat? It would be good to have porridge!"
Xiaoye lowered her eyes to hide the look in her eyes, and asked again: "After you left, the rumors about me in the village have not stopped. It was all caused by your cousin-in-law and his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Have you heard of it?
"
Having said this, Chen Changfu asked bluntly: "Is it really rumored?"
Xiao Ye's face turned pale: "You think not?"
No woman can bear such grievances. It’s okay for outsiders to say nonsense, even her own man said so. Tears burst out of Xiaoye’s eyes instantly: "We are just living together, if you don't believe me, we might as well..."
Chen Changfu answered: "Are we separated?" He raised his eyes and looked at her: "Have you found your next home?"
Xiaoye: "..."
She was so angry that she put down the bowl in her hand, stood up and sent the two children out. After closing the door, she turned around and said seriously: "Chen Changfu, it's not fun for you to do this. You said that I was hooking up with someone, do you have any evidence? Then
I also said you have a lover in the city!"
Chen Changfu's face turned cold: "Don't talk nonsense!"
Xiaoye sneered: "I have evidence, it's not nonsense. You are a hot-blooded man, you have been away from home for several months, and when you come back, you don't want to cover yourself with me. If you say that there are no ghosts outside, some people have to believe it."
"You..." Chen Changfu said bitterly: "Don't be ashamed!"
"Isn't that the only thing between husband and wife? What is there to be ashamed of?" Xiao Ye said plausibly: "If you hear the messages from outside and find me disgusting, you will not be able to live in this life. Then you are like a man, don't delay
Follow me and tell me plainly!"
Chen Changfu is already married for the third time. If he wants to marry again, he actually doesn't have much choice. Without a large betrothal gift, the next one may not be as good as Xiaoye.
Although he was angry and said those words, he didn't think Xiao Ye was so courageous.
Xiaoye folded her arms and sneered: "Li Nianqiu is indeed right, you have to be disturbed by your fourth aunt to live your life. Although I don't have a serious mother-in-law to marry you, but with such an elder, who knows who to marry!"
She got up and went into the house. She quickly changed into the clothes she wore when she went out to visit relatives. She opened the door and went out. She heard her say softly: "Zilian, take your sister with you. Let's go back to your grandma's house."
Chen Changfu: "..."
He finally discovered the difference between Li Nianqiu and Xiao Ye. The former did not have a natal family, and no matter how many grievances he suffered, he could only cry at home. However, the latter always returned to his natal family. Today, he was quarreling with him on the spur of the moment. The Ye family may
I will also come to him to settle accounts.
The more Chen Changfu thought about it, the more upset he became. It was still early and it should be cool at the entrance to the village.
He simply went over with a homemade palm leaf fan.
At this time, every household was basically having breakfast and preparing to have breakfast, and there were only two or three people at the entrance of the village.
Among them was Ms. Tian, who was talking in a low voice to the woman next to her, making the other two laugh.
Seeing him coming, Mrs. Tian was angry: "Hey, this guy who went out to make a lot of money is back!" She thought of something and smiled again: "For the sake of helping me raise my son, I remind you to take him with me quickly.
Your daughter-in-law goes to see a doctor, otherwise, if she becomes pregnant, she is the biological mother, but the biological father... it will be hard to tell."
Chen Changfu felt a sudden change in his heart.
Although he knew that Tian was probably slandering, he was more suspicious of Xiaoye and scolded: "Don't talk nonsense."
Tian laughed and said, "Who doesn't know that your wife is flirting with the village scoundrel? Am I allowed to talk nonsense?"
Lai Gouzi is a well-known lazy man in the village. He has to spend all the money he earns before he can work. Occasionally he also cheats on others, and even makes some jokes with the older girls and younger wives. His reputation is really not good to the outside world.
Chen Changfu said with a cold face: "Looking at you as a woman, I won't argue with you. If a man said this here today... Humph!"
Tian sneered: "Even if you kill people, you can't cover up what happened. Unless you can kill everyone in the village. If you have the ability, why don't you kill one to see?"
Chen Changfu held his hand tightly at his side, and veins popped out on the back of his hand.
