Chapter 031: Red and Black in the Dark
Under Liu Qiaoxian's persuasion, Taohua finally revealed the crux or reason for her quarrel with Dajun.
Liu Qiaoxian listened to Taohuadi's story. Although she was a little angry, she still felt relieved and lucky, because Taohua only suspected that something had happened to Lijuan and Dajun, and she did not fully grasp their real evidence. Otherwise, if Taohua took the opportunity to cry out
Really, this matter is as small as it sounds, or as big as it sounds, and it may even cause irreparable consequences.
Thinking of this, Liu Qiaoxian felt a little scared. She persuaded Taohuajie: "It's not like you don't know her sister-in-law. She's like a mad dog. She has to bite whoever she wants. At the stall where Lijuan has been back these few days, you two can
Whether it's for fun or just having a family affair, you two can do it at our house. If you were at her house, I would have known that sooner or later you would cause trouble."
Taohua said indignantly: "Lijuan has only been home for a few days. Why don't you help the family with any work? She is self-conscious enough. She knows that her sister-in-law will cause trouble and she likes to say some ugly things.
, no, sister Lijuan said it right."
"It seems that you understand quite well. Just know who the bad guy is. No, I have to take the time to talk to that shrew."
"Forget it, mother, don't provoke her, so as not to get angry with this kind of person. Besides, if she acts violently, what can you do to deal with her?"
"Dare! Even though her mother-in-law has a good temper, I don't dare to offend her. If she dares to act naughty towards me, it will be weird if I don't tear her mouth. I will also take the opportunity to vent this bad breath on you, Aunt Sun.
"
"Oh my mother, you are about to become a hero who fights against injustice. Stop causing trouble. I will make you angry again. If you suffer, I will suffer too. Let's just live our small life."
"Is this the end of the matter?"
"But forget it, I didn't listen to her."
Liu Qiaoxian was very happy after hearing Taohua's advice. She just wanted to use this trick to rub away the resentment in Taohua's belly.
In fact, Taohua really wants to know what is going on with her sister Lijuan and her husband Liu Dajun, whom she often chats with. Have they ever done something ulterior? Otherwise, why would Liqiang's wife be so arrogant?
Said: Oh my God! When Taohua thought about this, her heart suddenly became uncomfortable. She wanted to find out the matter clearly, but how could she have the nerve to ask her mother-in-law? I had to find a way to know the truth.
"I've stopped being angry a long time ago. Don't worry about this. It's because I'm ignorant." Taohua comforted her mother-in-law.
"Okay, are you full? I'll cook some noodles for you."
"Mom, I'm not hungry." Taohua stopped her mother-in-law and asked, "I just heard Naughty Brother asking Dajun to install a TV? Where did it come from?"
Aunt Liu clapped her hands and said, "Hey, I went to the city for the first half of the day, didn't I? Naughty went to pick me up and watched TV by the way. The store clerk just looked down on us from the countryside. She thought we, stupid people, couldn't afford such expensive things.
Because of this, Naughty had a few arguments with her, and he got so angry that he actually bought the TV back."
In fact, Liu Qiaoxian did not tell the whole truth. She may have sensed something. After returning from the city this time, she did not mention that she was working as a matchmaker for Naughty Er and Cuihua. She seemed to be hiding it from Taohua on purpose.
But Taohua didn't want to ask any more questions, even though she wanted to know how things were going between Liu Haitao and Cuihua?
"Mom, I want to see the TV I bought." Taohua asked her mother-in-law.
"Go ahead, let's go check it out. If it's good, I'll buy one for our family. I heard it's like watching a movie all day long. It's fun." Aunt Liu agreed with a smile: "Peach Blossom should go out for a walk too.
Come on, don’t stay bored at home all the time, but you and Da Jun are not allowed to quarrel, do you hear me?”
Taohua pouted: "I won't pay attention to him. I don't know him the same way. Don't worry, mother."
"That's right, hehehe." Aunt Liu was happy.
Taohua went to Liu Haitao's house, and she couldn't fail to meet someone saying hello on the way. There were also twos and threes resting on the side of the road chatting with the women. Some of them pointed when they saw Taohua: "Look, this is Dajun's wife."
"What's it called?"
"Peach Blossom."
"How beautiful you are, just like a peach blossom."
"Hee hee, I heard that this little bitch is quite naughty. She tricked the entire army."
"Bah, she looks like a vixen, and she will take away the soul of any man when she sees her."
"Hahaha... have you ever seen what a vixen looks like?"
"You have to keep an eye on your man, don't let the vixen seduce him... Hehehehe."
Taohua seemed to feel that these women were talking nonsense behind her back. She lowered her head and quickly avoided the envy of the women, the greed of the men, the jealousy of these people, and even the malicious looks of some people; of course she knew they were talking about her, although she didn't know clearly.
Never mind what they are saying.
When Taohua entered the courtyard, Liu Haitao had already seen it while standing on the roof. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he felt particularly comfortable and excited for a moment.
And what was Dajun doing under the eaves? Oh, it turned out that they were setting up and debugging the antenna.
Although they were both very happy when they saw Taohua arrive, Dajun was embarrassed to talk to Taohua because he had a few words with her during lunch. But he thought: since she came to see her, it means that she
Already out of anger.
To put it another way, the life of a young couple is like that of children playing house. They can make trouble as much as they want, and it's just like the weather in June. It can be violently stormy in an instant and clear in the blink of an eye.
Despite this, Dajun just grinned at Taohua and said nothing. But Taohua raised her head and looked at the antenna above the roof, pretending not to see you, Liu Dajun.
"Peach Blossom is here? Come inside." Liu Haitao said to Peach Blossom on the roof: "The antenna will be installed soon. Let's see if we can adjust the channel soon. As long as there is a channel, we can watch it immediately."
Taohua smiled and said, "You can just pretend, I don't understand."
While Liu Haitao was installing the antenna, he was so happy that he started humming a song: "The rays of light from the Jinshan Mountain in Beijing shine in all directions. It is the golden sun. It is so warm and kind, and it illuminates the hearts of our serfs."
, we are walking on the road of socialist happiness..."
Taohua looked at the two men in front of her, feeling a sour and sweet feeling in her heart. She blushed, lowered her head and got into the house.
After the antenna was installed, they began to debug the TV again. However, Liu Haitao and Da Jun had been tinkering for a long time, but the TV just couldn't produce an image. The two of them were wondering, what was the reason?
Dajun read the "Instructions" again and looked at the time. He said, "It's only around three o'clock now. I'm afraid I won't be able to get there."
Liu Haitao nodded in agreement: "Maybe so. I also heard that the TV station signal will not be available until 5:30. Besides, I don't know if the direction of the antenna is correct?"
Dajun asked: "Where should the direction of the antenna be?"
Liu Haitao replied: "The people at the store said that the antenna here should be facing the direction of the city, right?"
They came out together and looked at the antenna. Dajun said, "Yes, it's heading towards the city."
Taohua, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly remembered something when she heard the conversation between the two of them. She said "Ouch", turned around and walked out. She said, "You guys go ahead, I have something else to do and I'm going home."
Taohua hurriedly walked home. On the way, she remembered the appointment she had made with Lijuan. Later today, she asked Lijuan to take the children to play at home, but she ran out, as if on purpose.
It's like hiding away, that's not good.
She took three steps and two steps at a time, and quickly entered the door of our house. From the door, she could hear the voices of people talking and playing with children in the house. They were talking and laughing, and it was very lively.
Taohua knew without guessing that Lijuan and her son had come home. She stepped into the house and said, "Sister Lijuan, have you been here earlier?"
"Hey, Taohua is back?" Lijuan's son was playing with old Liu Tou on the kang. Lijuan and Aunt Liu were standing side by side under the edge of the kang. She asked Taohua: "Auntie said you went to watch TV?
Is it installed?"
"Hey, these two idiots..." The word "egg" was not spoken. Taohua felt it was inappropriate, so she quickly changed her words and said: "It's installed, but it's not time yet. The TV station doesn't have a signal yet. It will be after 5:30."
Only then can we see it.”
Suddenly, Taohua discovered that there were faint tear stains on the corners of Lijuan's eyes, but her long eyelashes could not hide the redness in her eyes. It was obvious that she had just wiped away the tears.
She shouldn't ask openly, so she pretended not to notice, smiled at Lijuan and said, "Sister Lijuan, can Kurosuke come out? Let's watch TV together."
Lijuan also smiled, pointed at her son and said, "There is such a little thing who can't go anywhere. Let's wait and see. If he falls asleep early, just let my mother listen, and I will definitely come out to find you."
Liu Qiaoxian said: "If he doesn't sleep, just carry him out, or call your parents to watch it together. I have never seen anything like TV in my life. Let your parents and we open our eyes too. Then we will
I'll help you look after the children, and you young people can play together."
Liu Laocun had a great time playing with his children, smiling from ear to ear. The arrival of Lijuan's son seemed to add a lot of joy to the family.
Taohua could see how much her parents-in-law liked this child, but there was a faint worry in her heart, and she even felt pain. But she still smiled and said: "Sister Lijuan, you see how much my father and mother like your baby."
, from now on, don’t always come here alone, bring the baby over and let him play with my dad on the kang.”
Sun Lijuan's son's nickname is Xiaobao, and sometimes people call him Baobao.
Lijuan curled her lips and cursed: "This boy is just too naughty. He who is naughty is not a good person."
But Liu Laocun said: "Where are you talking? If you don't make trouble at home, you will be a fool. I don't care."
"That's right, just bring him over to play with your uncle if you have nothing to do." Aunt Liu said and smiled at the baby and asked: "Boy, would you like to come over?"
Unexpectedly, by chance, the baby squatted down and one word came out of his mouth: "No!"
This caused a burst of laughter.
While they were talking, it was getting dark, and Lijuan said to her son: "Let's go home, it's time to cook at grandma's house."
Lijuan picked up Xiaobao and walked out. Taohua said to her mother-in-law, "I'll see Sister Lijuan off."
Liu Qiaoxian agreed: "Go ahead and we'll cook again when we come back."
Taohua sent Lijuan out of the door and was supposed to turn around and come back, but she said to Lijuan: "Sister Lijuan, there is something that I have been keeping in mind and haven't had a chance to ask you, but I don't know if I should ask you?"
Lijuan's face suddenly turned red. She had already guessed what Taohua was going to ask, so she asked: "What...what's the matter?"
Taohua said: "Sister Lijuan, you can see that since you returned to your parents' home and we have only known each other for a few days, I really treat you as my own sister, but I just want to know one thing. I hope you can
Tell me, okay?"
"Looking at what you said, what can't we sisters say? What can't we ask?"
"Okay, Sister Lijuan, if you really treat me as your sister, I want to hear your true words."
Even so, Ke Lijuan was still uneasy. She thought about it, and since she was forced to do this, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Well, since you want to hear it, for the sake of us being good sisters,
