Chapter 169: Fooling, then lying
Li Ping relented and did not force Chang Wenbing and Anna to separate, but she also did not agree with their marriage.

What do you mean?
She weighed the relationship between Chang Wenbing and Anna with her own way of thinking. She believed that being in a relationship without getting married would be a delay for a woman. A man who is 40 is still a flower, but a woman who is 40 is nothing, so Anna decided that she could not afford to delay it. Chang Wenbing took the initiative to break up with Chang Wenbing after a year or two of being together but nothing came of it.

Li Ping's idea is a bit selfish, but this selfish idea has already been compromised, which is considered a relatively good result at this stage.

Chang Wenbing had no intention of hiding his mother from Anna. Anna curled her lips and said indifferently: "Marriage is just a legal contract. Whether it exists or not will not affect my pursuit of the life I want."

Anna and her children followed Chang Wenbing to Chang Lao Er's house. Li Ping and Chang Youchun still had eyes and noses, but at least they didn't kick them out again.

The news that Chang Wenbing brought back a foreign woman with a black child has spread in the village. In the winter, everyone is idle, so they gather together to chat and joke about this matter.

Fortunately, there was new excitement in the village that suppressed this matter, and this new excitement was related to everyone in Sankeliu.

The Sankeliu Village Committee is about to change its term. On the 16th day of the first lunar month, people vote to elect the new village director. Each adult villager in the village has one vote.

There are five candidates, and one of them is a woman. This is a rare thing, and people in the village are not allowed to talk about it.

This female candidate is Zhang Songzhu, an old acquaintance of Changjiu and the others.

"Zhang Songzhu? Didn't the village make a mistake? Isn't it more likely that Li Ergouzi will run for the election?" When she heard the news, she felt it was incredible.

Mo Lan said with a smile: "How can the boss's affairs be corrected? It's her. First of all, the villagers also wanted Li Ergouzi to choose the village director. He refused, saying that he was driving all day and had no time to take care of the village. I don't think it's a good idea to take it seriously. Later, for some reason, his wife said she wanted to make a choice. In the past two years, the couple had been driving cars together and making a lot of money. The second wife was sweet-talking, knew how to do things, and was open-minded. People in the village were very proud of it. She gave birth to a child last year and has been staying at home to take care of the child. She does have more free time than Ergouzi. "

Time flies so fast, Li Ergouzi and Zhang Songzhu both have children.

She is a girl, and Li Ergouzi is very rare. He never leaves his girl without talking to anyone.

When I went out to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the lunar new year, I met Li Ergouzi on the road. He happily told them about the name he had just given to his daughter. He said that he had spent a lot of money to find someone to name it. Zhang Songzhu was worried about this. I chased him and scolded him for a month.

One month is too little, what kind of father would spend money to name his daughter Li Tie!

Li Ergouzi didn't think the name was bad at all. He always said that his girl looked strong with this name, and no one would dare to bully her in the future. Moreover, there is a celebrity who plays football also named this, which means that this prosperous person will also become a great girl in the future.
She wanted to say, "Your name is Li Ning. You have the same name as a famous gymnast, so it doesn't matter in the end." So, your name has no direct relationship with who you are. Instead of thinking about these things, you might as well think about them. I wonder if his girl will be teased because of her name when she grows up and goes to school.

Now that she was talking about the child, she asked Mo Lan casually: "Mom, Zhang Songzhu and I had a good relationship when we were in junior high school. When she gives birth to a child, do I want to give someone a red envelope or something? Normally, forget it, mainly during the New Year. , should I go and take a look?”

Even though she was so busy outside, when she returned to the village, she still didn't understand the twists and turns of the people in the village, and she had to ask Mo Lan when something happened.

Mo Lan considered it and said: "You haven't gotten married yet, so your father and I can handle the personal relationships in the village. When the child is one month old, your father and I will go to the ceremony and have a meal, so the gifts for our two families are almost complete. But since you have a good relationship with Ergou’s wife and you rarely come back once a year, it would definitely be more decent to make a special trip to give your child a red envelope, don’t you think?”

That means I should go there.

"How much is appropriate?" She didn't know much about the various gifts in the village.

Mo Lanbai stared at her, got up and went to the cabinet to take the red envelope he had made with red paper and stuffed some money into it.

"People in the village always say that you have made a lot of money outside, so you can't give out this red envelope. But our money doesn't come from the strong wind, and there is no need to be too big on this matter. You can have more Don't give too much, just a little more than someone who is similar to you, so that everyone looks good," Moran said patiently.

"My mom is really awesome. She can do anything outside and knows everything at home. This family would have been broken up if it weren't for you!" She smiled and behaved like a good boy to Mo Lan.

Moran was not modest, and said proudly: "That's right, if it weren't for me, I wouldn't be able to have such outstanding children like you. Come on, stop being so annoying with me, and go to Er Gouzi's house quickly. If you go chat for a while now, you can still be there." Come back before dinner time, otherwise they will force you to eat. You have to decide whether you want to eat or not!"

They were all details. She wished she could write them all down in a notebook!

Shitou went with her. They passed by a small shop and bought a box of milk and a box of biscuits. It was like carrying a thief.

We arrived at Li Ergouzi's house just in time for the couple to make dumplings. They had already wrapped two curtains and were in the final stage.

After the polite greetings, she asked the couple in confusion: "Why are you making dumplings at this time when it's not right?"

Li Ergouzi bared his big teeth and glanced in the direction of his cabin, and explained with a smile: "I'm making dumplings while my girl is asleep. When she wakes up, I play with her and I don't have time to make dumplings."

Zhang Songzhu gave him a blank look, and said with a sense of happiness that was about to overflow: "He is too spoiled to the girl. He is only a few months old and he has already begun to think about the future marriage of the girl's lover. He is in my girl's ears all day long. Do you think a second-rate guy who can’t talk enough and can’t learn to study is sick?”

"Isn't it like this for all girls when they give birth? They worry about this and that, but there's no solution." She smiled and chatted with them: "By the way, who is older, your girl or my brother Wenxi's child?"

Speaking of this, Zhang Songzhu has more to say.

He glared at Li Ergouzi fiercely and said angrily: "Look at how often you and your sister-in-law name their children, Chang Li'an. The meaning is good and it sounds nice. The nickname An'an is also easy to pronounce. Take a look at my family again. Girl, her first name is Li Tie and her nickname is Tie Tie. If you don’t know, you might think that her father and I are from the steel factory.”

After complaining, Zhang Songzhu answered her question seriously: "An'an is big, but not much older. We can play together when they are older."

"Wen Xi also told me about the in-laws we wanted to marry. He said that we should cultivate our relationship from a young age, and when they grow up, they will be like you and a stone. Looking back, I thought about it, this is a good idea. If the two families know everything about it, it is cheaper than not knowing. The brat with a cat head and a dog face is good," Li Ergouzi said. It's all a joke, no matter what they say now, no matter how true the children are when they grow up and don't listen to them, there's nothing they can do about it.

While we were chatting happily, the third daughter-in-law from the same village, who was chatting in the Zhe Lazi room next door, ran over to her, took her hand and praised her left and right, but she couldn't stand it anymore.

Mao's third daughter-in-law is in her forties this year. She is fair and plump but does not look like an old woman. She is also very talkative and has always been very popular in the village.

She and Mao San have two children. The eldest girl, Mao Yingying, and Shitou were classmates in elementary school and junior high school, but their relationship was just average. They had almost no contact after graduating from junior high school.

When Mao Yingying got married last year, she and Shitou Xiner were given a gift. They couldn't come back, so they asked Mo Lan to go and present the gift on their behalf. She remembered this clearly.

"Third Aunt, how are you doing with Yingying now? Wowo Ridge is quite far away from our village. How did Yingying and her family get along?" Finally finding a chance to talk, she quickly brought up a topic that could start a conversation. .

Third daughter-in-law Mao clicked her tongue and rolled her eyelids and said: "My Yingying is just like that. Jiangba will have nothing to do after she finishes junior high school. Her father and I don't expect her to have much future. She goes out to work digging potatoes for others. I know her." My uncle, the two of us got along very well and almost got married. Isn’t that why we little people live in such confusion? By the way, how are you doing outside? I heard your mother said you had a divorce. School? Oh my god, you have to make money, right?”

Changjiu:.
She knew that no matter how far the topic went, it would always end up here. She was so cheerful and chatting away that she couldn't lose face. Otherwise, she would have to be kept outside to make money. She looked down on the villagers. , who can bear this.

"We didn't open a school. We just set up a cram school. It's the kind of cram school in town. It doesn't make much money." She replied vaguely.

Mao San's daughter-in-law didn't worry about whether what she said was true or false. Her eyes suddenly turned and fell on Shi Shi, and she smiled even more attentively and warmly.

"Shitou is more promising. It looks like he's making a lot of money. It's great." After a short pause, Mao's third daughter-in-law continued: "Tou Shitou, when you make money, don't forget about the people in the village. We were the people in the village when you were young. I will take good care of you, so we can’t forget our roots.”

Oh ho, the big hat was put on the stone first, interesting.

Mao San's daughter-in-law will definitely not say this for no reason, and there will be a follow-up.

Sure enough, after Mao's third daughter-in-law repeatedly emphasized how kind the villagers were to Shitou and that they were the most reliable people in the village, she asked Shitou if her son Mao Junjun could go to work in his factory.
"My family, Junjun, graduated from junior high school and was good at studies. He was just a few points short of passing the high school entrance examination, and later went to a vocational high school. Junjun is good at everything, but he is too honest and doesn't like to talk. I am always afraid that he will go out to work. He was bullied and farmed at home. His thin arms and legs were not like that. I thought about going to work in your factory. He is one of our own with a thoughtful mind. How can he not be better than the people you recruit from outside? You Say yes, Shitou?”

How close is it? She really knows how to tell lies.

Mao Junjun's academic performance was poor. Even if he was given two hundred points, it would not be enough to go to high school.

Also, why is he so honest and silent? Mao Junjun even got into trouble during a fight in vocational high school. He was not a passive bully, but a problem person who took the initiative to make trouble for others. This was not a secret in the village, she had heard about it a long time ago.

They can't directly expose the lies that people happily make up. It doesn't do them any good to prevent Mao's third daughter-in-law from coming to Taiwan, and it's not worth it to offend someone for nothing.

The headache came to Shitou's head, and she was still thinking of saying something to help Shitou. Unexpectedly, Shitou smiled and said politely: "Third Aunt, you haven't heard about it yet. My factory is almost going bankrupt. I haven’t paid my workers wages for half a year, and people are making trouble at my door every day, almost destroying my factory. If Xiaojiu hadn’t lent me money a year ago, I wouldn’t have been able to survive this year, really!”

Mao's third daughter-in-law was not easy to fool, so she said with a smile: "Don't lie to your third aunt. People outside say that you are doing well outside. Why are you crying for poverty with me? Do you not want Junjun to go to your place? Yes?" Just tell the third aunt directly, why are you going around in such a big circle? "

"Who said that outside? You can really pull someone blind." Shitou remained calm and calm, smiling: "If I were really so capable, I could let Wen Mo raise deer at home? Let Wen Jian work as a cook in Binjiang? Let them work in my factory. Well, I feel more at ease because my family understands my situation better and knows that I can’t make any money.”

It was well-founded and convincing, and she almost wanted to applaud the stone.

As expected, Mao's third daughter-in-law was deceived by him, and her interest in him was greatly reduced, so she brought the topic to her again.

"Xiaojiu, is there a shortage of people in your cram school? I can do anything like cleaning, guarding the door, etc. My Junjun can do it!"

"I'm just a tutoring place, so there's no need for someone to clean the house and look after the door. I do all the messy work myself, and I can save a dime." She also imitated Shitou.

"True or false? Didn't your second and third aunts go to the provincial capital for more than half a month? They all said that you were doing well outside, so they can't lie to others." Mao's third daughter-in-law was a little confused, not knowing who it was. What is said is true and who is said is false.

She continued to lie: "My second aunt and third aunt feel sorry for us, and are afraid that if we tell the truth, people in the village will make irresponsible remarks. You also know that there are people in our village who are jealous of others who are not good enough to step on other people's good intentions. It’s not enough to take advantage of someone else.”

She thought she was being very reserved, but Mao San's daughter-in-law had a secret in her mind and automatically applied the words to herself, her face turning blue and white intermittently.

However, she didn't say clearly that Mao's third daughter-in-law didn't want to show off her face, so she chatted for a while without embarrassment and left.

"Hey, it's true." Zhang Songzhu said sheepishly, "This is such a big deal, I'm embarrassed to just kick him out and cause trouble for you two."

She couldn't blame Li Ergouzi and Zhang Songzhu. She believed that if they could be expelled, they would be expelled immediately. They lived in the same village and had to leave a few people who came and went to talk and do things. point.

"It's okay. It's something that can be solved with a few words. Don't get angry or anything like that." She said nonchalantly: "Having said that, if her Junjun is really like that, what else can I say? Or Shitou must be willing to use it. If no one likes to use it, it’s Junjun himself who has nothing to do with it.”

"That's not what you said." Li Ergouzi retracted his big white teeth and said seriously: "Let's say this behind closed doors. No matter how good you are doing outside, don't even think about helping the people in the village. You earn a Even if you give them 80%, you won't be able to do well. Really, why not just find someone to work outside to save your worries. "

Hey, listening to Li Ergouzi's tone, is he suffering a loss in this regard? Why haven’t I heard Moran say this before?
