80s: Daughter-in-law Is Sweet and Sassy (My 80's Wife Is Sweet And Cool)

After returning home, Chu Qiao began to boil black plum and rock sugar water. She bought medicinal black plums, which are available in pharmacies. She got a dozen of them, put them in water and boiled them with rock sugar. After boiling, she simmered them on low heat for ten minutes. Minutes, it’s sour and sweet plum water.

You can let your children drink it as tea from morning to night to relieve dry coughs and whet their appetites.

[This is a small folk remedy, it varies from person to person, so you still need to follow the doctor’s advice]

"Dabao, drink this cup before going to bed."

Chu Qiao poured a glass of black plum water and put it on the table. Dabao took a sip and his eyes lit up. It was sour and sweet, and it tasted particularly delicious. He could drink this medicine every day.

"I can drink it all in one gulp."

Dabao drank half the cup, but Chu Qiao persuaded him to drink it slowly. Xiaobao looked at it with envy and couldn't help but swallowed his saliva. His brother's medicine looked delicious.

When Chu Qiao went to the back room, Xiaobao whispered: "Brother, give me a little drink?"

"No, this is medicine, you can't drink it." Dabao was reluctant to part with it.

"Brother, I have a cough too."

Xiaobao coughed hard several times, and with an exaggerated look, he stood on tiptoes to pick up the cup in Dabao's hand. Dabao became impatient and said, "I'll give you a sip!"

"Um."

Xiaobao was very happy. He held the cup and took a big sip, and then another big sip. It tasted so good. He wanted to drink this medicine every day.

"Stop drinking, I'm all gone."

Dabao snatched the cup back, guarded it tightly, drank the rest of it, burped loudly, turned the empty cup over to show his brother, and said proudly: "It's gone!"

Xiaobao pursed his lips, feeling a little aggrieved. He also wanted to cough, and then his aunt would give him such a delicious medicine.

Chu Qiao told Gu Ye about Xu Bilian in the room. Gu Ye was very calm. It was not unusual for the He family to do this. This family has always been extremely selfish. Xu Bilian had offended the reputation of the He family. Mrs. He would definitely not be soft-hearted. .

"Do you think Xu Bilian will escape back?" Chu Qiao asked.

Gu Ye shook his head, "No, the He family and the Xu family must have reached an agreement, and the Xu family will keep a close eye on Xu Bilian."

He thought for a while and then said: "It is very likely that the Xu family has arranged a marriage for Xu Bilian."

The best way to tie up a woman is to get married. The Xu family will definitely not raise an idle person. Xu Bilian is young and good-looking. There are many singles marrying in rural areas, and the Xu family can still earn a betrothal gift.

Chu Qiao looked a little stunned. How could a mountain village family like the Xu family marry Xu Bilian to a good family? Moreover, Xu Bilian could no longer have children, and only an old bachelor would marry him. The He family was so heartless. No wonder He Jihong was ill and couldn't afford it. .

"Xu Bilian is probably going crazy, she is such a proud and arrogant person." Chu Qiao said with emotion.

Gu Ye sneered, "She asked for it."

After that, the two of them stopped talking about this woman. There was nothing to say. Xu Bilian disappeared silently in Shanghai. No one remembered her or even mentioned her. Only He Jihong was concerned about her.

The weather was getting colder day by day, and it was already December. Chu Qiao finally took the time to go back to her parents' house and bought some gifts. Chu Yuanzhi called again and said that He Jihong was seriously ill this time and even had to cook. No, it’s the canteen where he and Chu Peng eat these days.

Downstairs from the family, Chu Qiao and Chang Jinfeng met. Chang Jinfeng was dressed up and carried some fruits. When she saw Chu Qiao, she smiled and said, "Come up together."

"Why are you here?" Chu Qiao asked with a smile.

"I came to see He Jihong's joke. Old Tang wouldn't let me go back to the compound to talk about Xu Bilian. I felt so panicked." Chang Jinfeng didn't hide the reason for her visit. Everyone on Earth knew that she was at odds with He Jihong.

After Chu Qiao told her about Xu Bilian's scandal a few days ago, Chang Jinfeng planned to go to the compound to publicize it and make He Jihong lose face and show off the bad temper she had suffered before, but Tang Yaozu stopped her and said that she still It is not appropriate to offend the He family. After all, Mr. Chang and Mr. He are still good brothers in appearance.

Chang Jinfeng had no choice but to hold it in for several days, and the more she held it in, the more uncomfortable she became. Yesterday, she heard that He Jihong was sick, and she immediately came to send her "warmth".

Chu Qiao couldn't help but laugh. She liked to deal with Chang Jinfeng because of Chang Jinfeng's straightforward temperament. She would say whatever she wanted and would not annoy others even if she was a little petty. She was particularly tired of dating people who kept their words under wraps. , one sentence may contain countless meanings, and it takes a long time to guess, which is exhausting for everyone.

"Xu Bilian has been sent back to her biological father by the He family. I don't know how she is doing now." Chu Qiao said.

Chang Jinfeng looked around and said mysteriously in Chu Qiao's ear: "You don't know yet?"

"what do you know?"

Chu Qiao's eyes lit up. As soon as these words came out, it meant there was big gossip. She immediately cooperated and asked: "Speak quickly, don't scare me!"

Her eagerness greatly satisfied Chang Jinfeng's gossip heart, and she said cooperatively: "My old Tang said that Xu Bilian got married and was betrothed to an old widower in the ravine by her biological father, who was ten years older than her. She is several years old and has five children. I heard that she got married the day after she got home. Gee, this biological father is really cruel."

Chu Qiao was not too surprised, it was exactly as Gu Ye predicted, but Gu Ye still underestimated the He family's cruelty. How could the Xu family have such courage? It was not the He family's acquiescence.

"She has been in the city since she was a child. She has never met her biological father. Where is the relationship? And without the consent of the He family, the Xu family would not dare to do this." Chu Qiao said in a mocking tone.

Chang Jinfeng sighed, "Speaking of which, it's weird. People like Xu Bilian can't survive in the mountains and valleys, and they have to be the stepmother of five children. It's no wonder that He Jihong is ill and can't afford it."

She has lived in the countryside for more than ten years. Although her parents-in-law treat her as their own daughter, rural children still have to work. She has been washing clothes, collecting grass, feeding chickens and pigs since she was a child. Every day when she opens her eyes, there are countless jobs. But she is still lucky. Her parents-in-law really care about her and only let her do light work, and they will not force her to marry early in exchange for bride price.

When she was a child, many of her playmates of the same age got married when they were fourteen or fifteen and never went to school. She had graduated from junior high school, which was very rare in rural areas.

However, these are all due to Tang Yaozu. He has protected her since she was a child, and Tang Yaozu insisted on studying. He went out to earn money to support Chang Jinfeng in school. Her parents-in-law loved Wujiwu because of their eldest son's face.

"Xu Bilian asked for it, and the He family didn't force her to sell it!"

Chu Qiao had no sympathy at all. Xu Bilian was entirely to blame for her own fate.

Chang Jinfeng nodded and agreed very much. She just sighed with emotion, not sympathetic, but rather gloating.

The two arrived at the door of Chu's house. The door was ajar. Chu Qiao pushed it open, and a strong smell of Chinese medicine came out. Chu Yuanzhi came out of the kitchen holding a bowl of dark medicinal soup. He saw They were stunned for a moment, then greeted with a smile: "Qiaoqiao, sit with your friend for a while!"

Chu Yuanzhi didn't know Chang Jinfeng. He rarely went to the compound and thought he was Chu Qiao's friend.
