Splendid peasant girl busy farming

When Wang Hongquan and Yang Huamei's eyes met, the air suddenly froze.

It was a hot day at the end of April, but the temperature here seemed to have dropped several degrees sharply compared to other places.

This is awkward...

Yang Ruoqing touched her nose and looked back and forth between the former father-in-law and daughter-in-law in front of her, wondering whether she should say something.

At this moment, Yang Huamei suddenly broke the silence and took the initiative to greet Wang Hongquan.

"father……"

father?

Yang Ruoqing's eyelids twitched. Isn't her aunt too nostalgic?

By the way, when I was the daughter-in-law of Old Wang's family, my aunt never called Wang Hongquan "father". She always called him according to the generation of Dabai and Xiaohei, "Dabai's grandfather" and "Xiaohei's grandfather", or she called him according to Zhuangzhuang, "Zhuangzhuang's great grandfather"...

How come they've become closer now that she's remarried?

Speaking of which, I'm afraid this closeness will backfire on her.

As expected, old man Wang Hongquan, who was a little at a loss as to what to do because he caught the peach thief Yang Huamei, suddenly lost his face when he heard Yang Huamei's sudden word "Dad". His face became darker than the bottom of a pot that had been boiling for ten years.

His triangular eyes drooped, with wrinkles on his eyelids at the corners of his eyes. He looked at Yang Huamei with extreme disgust, and then spat fiercely on the ground.

"Pah, I thought it was something else, but it turned out to be such an unlucky thing!"

"Dad!" Yang Huamei's eyes were instantly filled with tears.

The five words "unlucky thing" obviously hurt her heart deeply.

"Don't call me dad. I'm not your dad. Shuanzi is gone, and we have nothing to do with each other anymore." Wang Hongquan waved his hand and turned away.

Yang Huamei said with red eyes: "You are Shuanzi's father and Dabai and Xiaohei's grandfather. We are still family even if we go to the ends of the earth."

Wang Hongquan sneered.

He opened his mouth to curse something, turned his head to look at Yang Ruoqing, and the old man held it back.

Because if he starts to curse, it will have a huge impact on everyone, and it's not easy to say it in front of Yang Ruoqing...

"Shuanzi is dead, and Dabai and Xiaohei have severed ties with you since the day you remarried," Wang Hongquan said. "We are no longer relatives, and an old man like me doesn't need you to call me dad."

"Just live your life well and don't bother our Wang family. I won't bother you with the peaches. Just take the peaches and leave!"

After saying this, old man Wang Hongquan waved his hand, walked over and checked the lock on the gate of the yard of Dabai's new house.

After confirming that the lock was secure, the old man walked to the back of the yard, leaning on his crutches and mumbling something.

Yang Huamei wanted to catch up and explain something to the old man, but was stopped by Yang Ruoqing.

Yang Ruoqing shook her head at Yang Huamei.

Yang Huamei said to Yang Ruoqing: "Qing'er, I want to give Xiao Hei's grandfather some pocket money to support him, so please let me go!"

Yang Ruoqing saw that in Yang Huamei's other palm, there was indeed a purse full of money.

Judging from the appearance, the money in the purse should be some change, which was used to buy wine and meat for old man Wang Hongquan.

"Aunt, supporting the old man is secondary. The main thing is to make up for your own guilt, right?" Moving her gaze from the purse full of money back to Yang Huamei's face, the words Yang Ruoqing asked were always so sharp.

Yang Huamei's face stiffened slightly. She did not deny it but nodded: "Yes, giving him some money will make me feel better." After all, Shuanzi died because of herself, and after Shuanzi's death, the old man also did his best to help him and his widow.

When there is something busy on weekdays, just send Zhuangzhuang to the old man at the back. The old man can help take care of the baby anytime and anywhere.

She also cried while holding Shuanzi's tablet in countless lonely and sad nights, and silently swore to Shuanzi in her heart that even if he passed away first, she, as a widow, would bravely hold on, take over his burden, raise the children well, and take care of old man Wang Hongquan until his death...

"Aunt, listen to my advice. If you really want to do good for the old man, don't get close to him, let alone give him money." Yang Ruoqing's words shattered Yang Huamei's fantasy.

"Why? I gave him money to buy things. What's wrong with that?"

Facing Yang Huamei's confusion, Yang Ruoqing didn't mind telling the truth: "Aunt, how did you marry your current uncle Xu Yuanming? Don't you have any idea in your mind?"

"Compared to the money you gave, the old man cares more about losing face for the Wang family and that you failed to remain faithful to Uncle Shuanzi!"

"Besides, Dabai runs a shop. He doesn't dare to say anything else, but when it comes to supporting his grandfather, I really can't find fault with Dabai."

"So, this old man really doesn't need your money. I advise you not to get close to him, otherwise if you anger him, it will be embarrassing for everyone!"

Yang Ruoqing's words were really a blow to Yang Huamei's lungs.

Yang Huamei's face turned blue, white and red, but that was the least of it.

The main reason was that she felt really ashamed. Even though she was standing here and there were no neighbors watching her, she still felt like a clown.

Do you think that you can wash away the wrong things you did before by paying some money?

"Qing'er, you're right. I have no self-awareness." After figuring it all out, Yang Huamei's tone was filled with self-mockery.

"Although I have formed a new family with Lao Xu and our three children are cuter than each other, the foundation of this marriage is a shame!"

The father-in-law and mother-in-law got drunk, had sex, and got married with a baby...

No matter how the parties involved tried to whitewash themselves, they could not. In the eyes of the children of the Wang and Xu families, the two of them were a combination of sin and a group of shame...

"Qing'er, let's go back!"

Yang Huamei turned around and walked back.

This surprised Yang Ruoqing.

She glanced at the old Wang family house which was only 20 meters away and said, "Aunt, the old Wang family house is right in front of us. Xiao Hei might be in the house. Why don't you go take a look?"

Yang Huamei paused and subconsciously clenched her hands at her sides into fists.

It was obvious that she was struggling internally.

"No, as long as he lives a good life and learns to pick up the crops from the fields, I will feel relieved."

After saying this, Yang Huamei walked back without looking back.

In that case, Yang Ruoqing didn't say any more nonsense and turned around to chase after him.

Compared to the high spirits when she came out, Yang Huamei traveled in silence all the way back.

It was close to noon, and many people in the village who had been working in the fields since dawn were now rushing back to the village to go home for lunch.

I met Yang Huamei on the way to the village. Someone greeted her. Yang Huamei's response was far less patient and enthusiastic than before. She seemed very perfunctory and absent-minded. (End of this chapter)
