Rebirth Era: After the Beautiful Sister-in-law Refuses to Open Business

"Mom, now that things have come to this, please stop making a fuss. I'm getting married to Han Bailan, and you'll be able to hold your grandson soon. Isn't that good?"

No matter how much trouble you make, the result will probably be the same. So why bother making a fuss?

Father Zhao let go of Mother Zhao's arm and looked at Father Han: "What happened just now was my Xiaojing's mother's fault. Since the two children have no objection, let's discuss what to do next."

Father Han also let go of Mother Han at this moment. He asked Father Zhao to sit back on the bamboo chair, and the two of them discussed the matter of Han Bailan and Zhao Jing. No one paid any attention to their wives.

"The marriage of the two children cannot be delayed, but Zhao Jing got engaged two months ago. His partner is the second daughter of the old Feng family. What I mean is that I will go to the old Feng family with Xiao Jing's mother later and briefly talk about the children to avoid embarrassment when our three families meet in the future.

After all, you and Lao Feng both work at the grain station, and Lao Feng is your superior. Now that something has happened between the children, it will probably be difficult to hide it. If Lao Feng finds out from others that my family has broken off the engagement,

But if he marries his children to yours, he will definitely be dissatisfied with both of our families, and it may even affect your working relationship.

So, I chose to tell you that Zhao Jing is engaged. On the one hand, our two families are about to become relatives, and we shouldn't hide anything about the child.

On the other hand, I also want you to be mentally prepared so that you don’t end up having a grudge against Lao Feng because of a few unpleasant words from him, which would cause your work to be unable to proceed normally.”

After listening to what Zhao's father said, Han's father was silent for a moment, then spoke: "More than a month ago, I was chatting with Lao Feng, and I did hear him mention his family's Yuanyuan's engagement. To be honest, I feel really sorry for Lao Feng because of the quarrel between our children. But now that things have come to this, it is only our two families who are sorry for Lao Feng.

Besides, my Lanlan is also engaged, and the wedding date is just around the corner. Now because of your boy... I must cancel the engagement with the boy's family and apologize to them.

However, I hope that the affairs of our two children can be handled in a low-key manner. Do you have any opinions?"

Father Han looked serious as he stared at Father Zhao, waiting for his reply.

"You are right. The marriage of the two children must be kept low-key."

After a pause, Zhao's father added: "In terms of breaking off the engagement, I think we have to find a better reason, otherwise, it will be difficult for the two children to live their lives when they return."

"Ah."

Father Han nodded, agreeing with what Father Zhao said.

If one were to say that one's own child had bad conduct, bad behavior, and was pregnant with someone else's child, and one had no choice but to cancel the engagement, this would undoubtedly be a great offense to the Song family.

Therefore, he naturally had to come up with a reasonable excuse.

As for Song Qingbin and Song Lan knowing the truth, Han's father believed that even if they did not consider what would happen to the Han family, just for the sake of their own face, Song Lan and Song Lan would not tell anyone the real reason for the two families to break off the engagement.

Well, in fact, whether it was Song Lan or Song Qingbin, or Song Sanhe and Li Jumei who learned about Han Bailan's scandal, they did not mention the truth about Song Qingbin's cancellation of the engagement to outsiders.

Feng family.

"Mom, I'm back!"

Feng Yuanyuan works in the supply and marketing cooperative in the county town. Since tomorrow is Sunday, she rode her bike back to her home in town after work this afternoon. As she entered the yard, she heard a noise in the kitchen and couldn't help but shout something towards the kitchen door.

"Didn't I tell you that it gets dark earlier these days, so that you don't get into trouble on the road and don't go home every weekend? Why don't you listen to me?"

Walking out of the kitchen, Feng's mother looked at her second daughter Feng Yuanyuan, with an obviously unhappy look on her face.

But the concern in his eyes was obvious.

Feng Yuanyuan curled her lips and said, "It's boring for me to stay in the dormitory, so I thought about going home. Besides, it's not completely dark yet, so it's safe on the road!"

"What's so good about home? Your father, your brother and I are all fine. Why should you worry about us? Now that you're back, I won't say anything. But you can't continue like this. You must do what your father and I say.

You can only go home once a month, and your dad will go to the county to pick you up. If you don't obey, your dad and I will just treat you as an extra. Do you understand?"

Anyone who heard these words could hear a mother's concern for her child, so how could Feng Yuanyuan not understand? She packed the bicycle, washed her hands, followed Feng's mother into the kitchen, and said, "I understand, and I will never do it again!"

"I'll remember that."

Feng's mother said this casually, her hands moving non-stop, busy making pancakes on the stove.

"Well, that's what I said."

Feng Yuanyuan responded.

"Since you and the boy from the Zhao family are engaged, you can go to the park or watch a movie on Sunday. This will help you develop your relationship."

As Feng's mother flipped the scallion pancakes in the pan, she said, "Also, you need to smile more. When you meet someone, you need to smile more. It's not just out of politeness or respect for others, but it can at least leave a good impression on them.

You obviously liked to laugh when you were in elementary school, but from junior high school to now, it is almost impossible to see a smile on your face on weekdays. I am not saying anything bad about you, but if you continue like this, how are you going to live with the Zhao family kid after you get married?"

“It’s not that I can’t laugh.”

She just thinks nothing is funny in daily life, so it is rare to see a smile on her face. Is there anything wrong with that?

Feng Yuanyuan was puzzled.

"I know, I know. It's not that you can't laugh, you just don't want to laugh."

Mother Feng looked at her daughter unhappily and then asked, "How are you getting along with Zhao Jing?"

"generally."

Zhao Jing, her former junior high and high school classmate and her current fiancé, to be honest, Feng Yuanyuan doesn't have much feelings for him.

The reason why she agreed to get engaged to the other party was simply because her family was pressuring her and kept introducing her to potential partners. As a result, she went on no less than seven blind dates in more than a year, but she didn't find any of them right.

Until she went on a blind date with Zhao Jing, she thought that he was good-looking, looked clean, they were classmates in junior high and high school, and he was interesting to talk to. So, with the thought that she didn't dislike him and was no longer pressured by her family to get married, she nodded and agreed to the marriage between the two families.

In her opinion, marriage means living together, and marrying a gay man whom she doesn't dislike and who she can be considered to be an acquaintance should be better than marrying a gay man whom she only met through blind dating and whom she doesn't know very well.

"What do you mean by usually? Doesn't the Zhao family kid usually ask you out to play?"

Feng's mother asked.

"No, it's just that I don't know what to say when I'm with him."

Feng Yuanyuan pondered for a moment and said, "Mom, I'm already engaged, so why don't you stop worrying about other things!"

"I'm your mother, how can I not worry about you?"

Mother Feng took the scallion pancake out of the pan and put it on the chopping board. She said with an unhappy look on her face, "You and the boy from the Zhao family have developed feelings for each other before marriage. Only then can you live a long life together after marriage. Otherwise, with your cold temper, I'm afraid that the boy from the Zhao family will ask for a divorce after just a few days of marriage."

"I'm not afraid."

Feng Yuanyuan said without hesitation: "It's a new society now. I can still make a living after getting divorced. Besides, I have a job, so I won't starve to death."

"What nonsense are you talking about?!"

Mother Feng glared at her daughter: "Is divorce something that can be taken lightly? Although women hold up half the sky, having a man at home can make one feel more at ease. Besides, divorces have happened in our town before, but what were the results..."

"It's just people gossiping about me and pointing fingers at me..."

Before Feng Yuanyuan could finish her words, Feng's mother said, "If it didn't happen to you, you can say anything. But the eldest daughter of the Wang family in East Street is divorcing her husband. Do you know what the situation is now?"

Feng Yuanyuan: “I don’t know.”

"That's right. You work in the county and don't like to listen to gossip. It's not surprising that you don't know."

Mother Feng sighed and said, "That girl is the same age as your eldest sister. Half a month ago, she went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy something.

Maybe he heard some bad gossip, or maybe he encountered something else. Anyway, he became crazy when he got home. He ran out of the house that night while his family was asleep. The next day, his body was found floating in the Baima River outside the town. "

Feng Yuanyuan didn't say anything.

Feng's mother: "It is said that there are two dead bodies and the baby in her belly is almost four months old."

"…Her in-laws must be very regretful, right?"

Feng Yuanyuan asked.

"Regret? The man married a new wife the second month after the divorce." Mother Feng sighed again: "In the end, it's just a pity for the unborn child."

Feng Yuanyuan: "Why are you getting a divorce?"

Feng's mother: "The eldest daughter of the Wang family despises her husband's family for being poor and the man in her family for being incompetent."

Feng Yuanyuan: "Did you get married for a long time?"

Feng's mother: "They got married last winter, and they are getting divorced within a year. She was so depressed that she lost her baby."

……

The mother and daughter were chatting while cooking dinner. Father Feng and Feng Yuanyuan's younger brother returned home. The four of them were sitting around the table eating. Father Zhao walked into the Feng family's courtyard alone.

"Old Feng!"

As soon as he heard Zhao's father's voice, Feng Xueyi, also known as Feng's father, hurriedly got up and walked out of the main room.

"It's Lao Zhao, why are you here at this time? Come in and sit down!"

Seeing that Zhao's father had prepared the food, Feng's father invited him into the main room and said, "Sit down and eat together. Yuanyuan, go to the kitchen and get a pair of chopsticks for your uncle Zhao."

"No, I've already eaten at home. I came to see you this time because I want to talk to you two about something..."

Noticing that something was wrong with Mr. Zhao's expression, Mr. Feng and Mrs. Feng looked at each other. Then, Mrs. Feng asked Feng Yuanyuan to clean up the dishes on the table and went to the kitchen with her two children.

"You two can either go back to your rooms or stay in the kitchen. I'll go to the living room to listen to what your uncle Zhao has to say."

After settling Feng Yuanyuan and her brother and sister, Feng's mother returned to the main room.

"If there is any possibility, I really don't want to come here!"

Father Zhao smiled bitterly, and at the same time, his eyes were filled with self-blame. He said, "Old Feng, his aunt, I didn't teach my son well... He, he doesn't know what's wrong with him.

Since yesterday, he has been making a fuss about breaking off the engagement with your Yuanyuan, saying that he… that he has a girl he likes in his heart. When his mother and I heard about this, we were really furious..."

"Old Zhao, please repeat yourself. I didn't hear you clearly. What do you mean your boy has a girl he likes?"

Mr. Feng immediately got a dark face.

Mother Feng's expression wasn't much better either.

"You two must not be angry. It was my Zhao Jing who was wrong. He is a bastard and a good-for-nothing. Even though he was already engaged to your Yuanyuan, he suddenly told me and his mother that he had a girl he liked and wanted us to agree to cancel the engagement. His mother and I scolded and beat him, but the brat was determined to cancel the engagement..."

Before Zhao's father finished speaking, Feng's father interrupted him again: "Okay, it's no problem to cancel the engagement, but we can't accept the reason you gave us."

With a cold tone, Father Feng said, "Your son Zhao Jing has a girl in his heart. Why didn't he make it clear before the engagement? Are you trying to play tricks on our family?"

"No, absolutely not! Don't get me wrong, Lao Zhao. My wife and I only found out that Zhao Jing had someone he liked when that jerk started making trouble. Now he's lying in the hospital. If you two don't believe me,

I can take you to see it... To be honest, my husband and I both like Yuanyuan as our daughter-in-law, but my bastard suddenly made such a scene. If our two families continue with the marriage, it would mean that our family is dishonest and is cheating your Yuanyuan!"

"According to what you said, our family should thank your family?"

Father Feng sneered: "My daughter is so good, but your family broke off the engagement for no reason. Are you trying to force my daughter to death?"

"Old Feng, that's not true. Didn't I tell you that it's our family's fault to cancel the engagement? It's my Zhao Jing, that bastard, who let Yuanyuan down. The fault is all on our side. Your Yuanyuan has nothing to do with your family. When our two families cancel the engagement,

Even if your family tells others that my Zhao Jing fell in love with another girl, but your family accidentally discovered it, and then your family didn't want to let your daughter down, so they canceled the marriage with us."

Before Zhao's father finished speaking, Feng's father interrupted him again: "Okay, it's no problem to cancel the engagement, but we can't accept the reason you gave us."

With a cold tone, Father Feng said, "Your son Zhao Jing has a girl in his heart. Why didn't he make it clear before the engagement? Are you trying to play tricks on our family?"

"No, absolutely not! Don't get me wrong, Lao Zhao. My wife and I only found out that Zhao Jing had someone he liked when that jerk started making trouble. Now he's lying in the hospital. If you two don't believe me,

I can take you to see it... To be honest, my husband and I both like Yuanyuan as our daughter-in-law, but my bastard suddenly made such a scene. If our two families continue with the marriage, it would mean that our family is dishonest and is cheating your Yuanyuan!"

"According to what you said, our family should thank your family?"

Father Feng sneered: "My daughter is so good, but your family broke off the engagement for no reason. Are you trying to force my daughter to death?"

"Old Feng, that's not true. Didn't I tell you that it's our family's fault to cancel the engagement? It's my Zhao Jing, that bastard, who let Yuanyuan down. The fault is all on our side. Your Yuanyuan has nothing to do with your family. When our two families cancel the engagement,
