Stepmother Reborn: Dad, my mom hasn't hit me for three days
Chapter 451 Zhang Family's Si Ya and Jin Bao
In a blink of an eye, Zhang Xiuhua returned home. She had just arrived at the door and was taking out the key. Before she opened the door, she saw Aunt Li Si and Zhang Jinbao coming back from outside. Seeing Zhang Xiuhua, Aunt Li Si greeted her.
Zhang Xiuhua also smiled and nodded, "Where did it come from?"
Aunt Li Si pointed at Zhang Jinbao and said, "Take him to see him."
Zhang Jinbao felt a little embarrassed and left first.
After he left, Aunt Li Si complained to Zhang Xiuhua, "Once other people heard that he had seven daughters, they all left home and refused to even see him. Zhang Jinbao is really a waste of money."
Zhang Xiuhua was not surprised at all.
Zhang Jinbao's fraud was a hot topic. There are no secrets in the countryside, and there are connections between villages. When everyone was visiting relatives during the New Year, they sat together and chatted, and the Zhang family's affair was revealed.
The whole country is now implementing family planning. Although rural people can have a second child if the first child is a daughter, no one can guarantee that the second child will be a boy.
The Zhang family gave birth to seven daughters just to have Zhang Jinbao, which shows that the idea of favoring boys over girls is extremely serious. They will definitely make Zhang Jinbao's wife violate the family planning policy until she gives birth to a son.
There are still many families in the Northeast who love their daughters, so they naturally avoid such things.
Of course, there are also families who want to exchange their daughters for betrothal gifts. This is the family that Aunt Li Si took Zhang Jinbao to see. But the girl didn't like Zhang Jinbao.
Zhang Xiuhua was a little amused. "Didn't you want to help them with the introduction before? Why are you taking on the task again?"
"It's because they gave the matchmaker a lot of money. I can't go against the money." Aunt Li Si found that it was really hard to make money. It's not a blind marriage now, and it's useless for parents to force their daughter. Besides, Zhang Jinbao is not good-looking, and his family conditions are not good. He is really bad in every way.
Many families in the village have already built brick houses, but his family, which only has one son, still has a mud-brick and thatched roof. It's obvious that his parents are not doing a good job.
In fact, they did wrongly accuse the Zhang family. Zhang's father and mother were very capable, but they had a precious son, Zhang Jinbao, who wanted to eat and wear good clothes, which resulted in their family not being able to save much money. In addition, Xiuxiu had previously swindled all their savings. How could they have any extra money to build a house? !
As they were talking, someone suddenly came up from behind. When they heard the voice, they turned around and saw a familiar figure.
Zhang Xiuhua was stunned. Aunt Li Si was the first to react. She clapped her hands together and said "Oh my!" with a vivid expression, "Isn't this Si Ya? Where have you been?"
Zhang Si Ya looked very different. It was only April and the weather wasn't that hot yet. Everyone was still wearing cotton-padded jackets, but she was only wearing a T-shirt with a black leather jacket on top and was shivering from the cold.
She was wearing makeup, her lips were bright red, and her eyebrows were very thin. In Aunt Li's opinion, what was the difference between this and a fairy? !
Zhang Xiuhua thought that she might have gone to the south to work, but she didn't expect Si Ya to take the initiative to talk to her, "Aunt Zhang, I'm here to see the child, and I'll be leaving soon."
Zhang Xiuhua didn't react for a moment, but Aunt Li Si remembered and pushed Zhang Xiuhua, "Oh, it happened a few years ago. Isn't there a new child at your door?"
Everyone in the village knew that it was Si Ya who dumped the child at Zhang Xiuhua's door. Unexpectedly, she actually came to the door.
Zhang Xiuhua also remembered and told the truth, "You dumped the child at my doorstep without telling me, so I sent the child to the police station. They wanted to find you, but couldn't find you. Then they went to your parents-in-law, but they refused to adopt the child, so they sent the child to an orphanage, and I heard someone took the child away."
After she said this, Zhang Si's face suddenly changed. She could hardly believe it and raised her voice, "What? You sent my child to an orphanage? How could you do that!"
Zhang Xiuhua was shocked and thought the other party was going to quarrel with her, but she was not afraid of the other party, she was right. She even had a lot of things to say back, "You don't even raise your own child, why do you throw it to me? I have no relationship with you. Why should I help you raise your child?"
Unfortunately, she didn't have time to show her eloquence. The next second, Zhang Si Ya burst into tears, "How could you give him away? He's my son! The son I gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy. If you give him away, what should I do?!"
Zhang Xiuhua saw that she was crying without any image, with her eyeliner mixed with tears all over her face like a ghost. She was afraid to provoke her again. If this girl did something stupid again, she would never be able to wash herself clean even if she jumped into the Yellow River. She endured it again and again and did not fight back.
Aunt Li Si felt that her most urgent task now was not to cry. "You should go to the police station and ask if you can find the child. You should leave quickly. If your parents knew you were back, they would definitely tear a layer of flesh off you. They were deceived two years ago and all their money was taken away."
When Zhang Si Ya heard this, she stopped crying and asked what was going on.
Aunt Li finished her talk without stopping. Zhang Si Ya wanted to ask for more details, but she glanced behind Aunt Zhang, her eyes widened, and she turned and ran away.
Zhang Xiuhua and Aunt Li Si looked back and saw that it was Zhang's parents who were chasing them. They probably heard the villagers say that Zhang Si Ya was back, so they wanted to ask their daughter for money?
"You damn girl, you run so fast!" Zhang's father stamped his feet fiercely. He was too old to outrun the young. He urged his son to chase after her. Zhang Jinbao ran faster than them and actually caught up with them.
When Zhang Xiuhua saw them, she stepped aside.
Zhang's mother pulled Aunt Li Si aside and asked, "Why is she here?"
"I came back to get the child. But the child was sent to the welfare home by the police a long time ago." Aunt Li Si watched Zhang Si Ya running very fast. Zhang Jinbao was obviously a boy, but he was not as fast as Zhang Si Ya. In fact, it was not his fault that he did not run fast. The Zhang family's golden nugget had never done farm work since he was a child. Of course, he could not run faster than Zhang Si Ya.
Zhang Jinbao didn't catch up after all, and came back panting, "Forget it, just pretend you never gave birth to her. Look at her, she came back empty-handed, I guess she's not doing well out there."
Zhang's mother cursed, "She got it for free."
She turned around and asked Aunt Li Si, "Aunt, please find another one for Jinbao. This one is not good. They are too short, Jinbao doesn't like them."
Aunt Li Si was speechless. How could you still look down on her? The girl didn't like your son at all, okay?
She secretly complained in her heart, thinking that it was not easy to make money as a matchmaker, but she still gritted her teeth and agreed, "Okay! I'll help you arrange it later!"
After they left, Zhang Xiuhua looked next door. Aunt Zhang had gone to the provincial capital to take care of her grandchildren, so she had no one to talk to.
After returning home, she made herself a bowl of noodles. Li Jianguo came back from outside and saw her, so he added another dish for her, "I bought it from town, Drunkard Peanuts, it tastes good. I'm sure you'll like it."
Zhang Xiuhua put it on a plate and asked him, "Did you go to town?"
"No, I passed by the town on my way back and saw someone selling this, so I bought it. I went to the county to negotiate the price with the director of the garment factory. I had a meal and drank half a bottle of white wine, and a day passed." Li Jianguo smelled a bit of alcohol, so he poured some cold water, added some hot water, and washed his hands and face. He was mostly sober.
"Did the deal get done?" This was all Zhang Xiuhua cared about.
Li Jianguo waved his hand, "Don't mention it. He didn't do anything serious, he just drank."
Zhang Xiuhua was speechless. "More than a month has passed since the end of the year, and the factory building has not been purchased yet. You are really good."
She had never done business in her previous life, but she had seen Jidong talking business with others. They always talked about business and then went out to eat together. Why did he do the opposite?
"We didn't agree on the price. You set the price so rigidly that I have to drink with him." Li Jianguo felt wronged, because he didn't want to get it earlier. It was because he didn't have enough money.
"You always treat us. It's not cost-effective to eat out and delay our work in the fields." Zhang Xiuhua really wanted to persuade him to give up.
Li Jianguo was determined, "Don't worry, I can definitely handle it."
He felt a little dizzy and went back to his room to sleep.
Zhang Xiuhua was afraid that if he kept drinking like this, he would have problems sooner or later, so after dinner, she made him a bowl of hangover soup, carefully brought it to the bedroom, and patted him awake, "Wake up! Drink the soup and go back to sleep. Otherwise, you'll have a headache tomorrow morning!"
Li Jianguo would not act crazy when drunk, he would just fall asleep. He was woken up by a slap, drank the soup in one gulp, and fell asleep again.
