June had arrived and the muffled rainy season of the Yellow Plum Blossoms had also quietly arrived.
As the saying goes, "When the rain pours on the yellow plum tree, there will be no sun for forty-five days." Although Jiangnan Memories was beautiful, these days of continuous rain caused many people who were used to living in dry areas to feel uncomfortable all over for a few days.
Fortunately, the rain was sparse and not heavy. It was like silver threads falling on one's skin, bringing a refreshing coolness. It was much more comfortable than the stuffy heat before the rain.
In a commercial street on the outskirts of Zhonghai City, there was a small street paved with damp greyish-green bricks. There were many small restaurants that emitted the smell of cooking oil and the smell of food. The big red and green signboards were decorated with all kinds of neon lights.
It was evening and there was a crowd of people rushing to get off work. A young man wearing a checkered short-sleeved shirt and a pair of straight white trousers was looking for a small restaurant. He walked all the way to a Sichuan restaurant and stood there for a while before walking in.
This was obviously Yang Cheng who came to talk to Ma Guifang about Mo Qianni after he got off work.
It had been quite some time and Yang Cheng thought that no matter how angry Ma Guifang was, she should have calmed down by now. He could understand her feelings and reason with her. There should be a way to make his mother-in-law compromise.
As soon as he entered, Sister Xiang, who had gained a few pounds, was pressing a calculator at the counter as if she was settling accounts. When she saw Yang Cheng enter, her eyes lit up, "Oh, Yang Cheng is here. You're here to see Guifang, right?"
Yang Cheng greeted her and smiled, "Sister Xiang, where's my mother-in-law?" Yang Cheng didn't see Ma Guifang in the restaurant.
"Ah, she's helping in the kitchen. I'll call her for you," Sister Xiang said as she put down the calculator and ran to the kitchen.
Yang Cheng quickly stopped her, "I'll go, I don't want to trouble you."
Xiang Sao understood and looked at him approvingly, but did not interfere.
Yang Cheng was a little nervous, but he still walked into the kitchen with a smile on his face. He smelled the fishy smell of vegetables and fish, but he was used to it in the market, so he didn't think much of it. He looked at the innermost part of the kitchen, where a woman was cutting vegetables and putting them on a plate. He called out, "Mom."
Ma Guifang, who was cutting vegetables, stopped moving the knife in her hand. She turned around and saw Yang Cheng. She said with a complicated expression, "What are you doing here?"
"Hehe, it's nothing. The weather has been humid recently and I'm afraid that you're not feeling well, so I came to take a look after work," Yang Cheng said with a smile.
"I'm fine, you can go!" Ma Guifang continued to cut vegetables.
How could Yang Cheng leave? He licked his lips, "That … I want to talk to you about Qianni …"
"We have nothing to talk about, I've said everything I need to say, and I've apologized to General Lin. This should be the end of it," Ma Guifang said bluntly.
Yang Cheng smiled bitterly, "How can this be the end of it? No matter what, I won't give up on Qianni. If I abandon her now because of your objection, how can I face the fact that she chose me in the first place? I just want to make things clear, mom, after you listen to my explanation, you'll believe me, I won't mistreat Qianni. "
Ma Guifang scoffed, "Won't mistreat? You already have a wife, do you think you can get married again? Let me tell you, Yang Cheng, unless you divorce General Lin and marry my daughter, then we'll be husband and wife, then I'll let bygones be bygones. If you want to take my daughter as your lover, even if you treat her well and give her mountains of gold and silver, I won't let her be with you again! "
Yang Cheng was stunned, this Ma Guifang's attitude was too resolute, he scratched the back of his neck with a headache, smiled and said, "Mom, you're too heartless, this is too damaging to Qianni and me, can't you not kill me with a stick and observe for a while?"
"Let me tell you, Yang Cheng, you're not allowed to call me 'Mom' anymore! I don't have a son-in-law as capable as you! "Ma Guifang glared at him," The reason why I want you to break up now is for your own good in the future! I don't care what you think, and I don't care if you've been flirting or anything else, but I can take care of my daughter! It's impossible for a girl to be with you! Go away! "
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this first," Yang Cheng was thick-skinned enough, he didn't care at all and walked behind Ma Guifang, smiled and said, "Mom, are your shoulders sore? Let me massage them for you …"
"Go away!"
Ma Guifang shouted, turned around with the kitchen knife, and pointed it at Yang Cheng's nose!
"Yang Cheng! I'm warning you! Don't think that I'll be softhearted by your flowery words, this is not negotiable! Unless I die, as long as I'm still breathing, I won't allow my daughter to be someone else's mistress! If you keep talking to me like this, I'll find a random beggar on the street and marry my daughter! "
Yang Cheng's face darkened, faced with such an aggressive Ma Guifang, he suddenly realized that he was full of energy, but he couldn't exert it.
She was the mother of her lover. Furthermore, everything she did was for the sake of giving her daughter a proper status and a happy life.
Therefore, no matter how fierce and ruthless she was to him, Yang Cheng always felt that he was in the wrong and didn't dare to act.
Ma Guifang wasn't An Zaihuan, nor was she Ning Guangyao, she was just an ordinary woman from a mountain village, she didn't even know a few words.
However, it was such an insignificant person that Yang Cheng didn't dare to make her angry, let alone look down on her regardless of seniority.
The reason why an elder was an elder was not because they were older than you, nor was it because they knew more than you, but because they could selflessly sacrifice everything for their descendants.
Such a woman, in Yang Cheng's eyes, was more worthy of respect than the premier, Ning Guangyao.
Yang Cheng felt suffocated in his heart, but he didn't dare to show the slightest bit of impatience, but it was difficult for him to give up, so he took two steps back and sincerely said, "I won't give up, since you're still angry today, I'll come again another day. I hope you can calm down, your daughter isn't someone who makes random choices, isn't it?"
Actually, Yang Cheng's thoughts were simple, if you're angry, then be angry, I'll come every day, you can't be angry every day, right? Even a brake pad would wear out one day, how could a person's temper be more durable than a brake pad?
Ma Guifang's eyes were slightly red, she didn't say a word.
At this moment, from the dining hall outside the kitchen, a woman's high-pitched voice suddenly came — — "Ma Guifang! Come out!!! "
Yang Cheng was about to go out of the kitchen, but when he heard this, he was stunned. Who had such a loud voice, and also had such a fierce aura!
Ma Guifang's face was pale, and her hand trembled as she put the kitchen knife back on the chopping board. She wiped her hand on her apron, hesitated for a moment, and silently walked out.
Yang Cheng followed closely behind, he realized that the situation seemed to be unfavorable for his mother-in-law, as if someone was looking for trouble with her, he might be able to take this opportunity to show off and win a good impression.
When he came to the dining hall, he saw a fat woman with her hands on her hips, her face with three chins, and her eyes were wide open, as if they were on fire.
Sister Xiang was standing at the side anxiously, as if she was a little afraid of the woman, wanting to say something but hesitating.
There was also a bald middle-aged man, relatively thin, was next to the woman, comforting her worriedly, "Wife, what are you doing! Let's go back! Don't cause trouble for Ah Xiang's shop, we're neighbors, what are you doing … "
The woman coldly snorted, and glared at her husband. When she saw Ma Guifang come out, she stepped forward, and loudly said, "Ma Guifang, you're really capable!"
Ma Guifang's face showed a trace of a gentle smile, walked in front of the woman, and asked, "Aunt Zhou, what do you mean by this?"
"Ha, you still have the face to ask me what I mean!?"
Aunt Zhou suddenly laughed, and then, without warning, raised her hand and slapped!
"Pa!!"
A crisp sound rang out, and a red mark appeared on Ma Guifang's face. She covered her face, stunned, a little stunned. This change made Sister Xiang, who was next to her, scream!
Yang Cheng also didn't expect the other party to hit, and he was thinking about what was going on, so he didn't stop it. Seeing Ma Guifang hit, his eyes suddenly burst into flames!
His mother-in-law was actually hit by a shrew in front of him!? If this matter were to spread to Mo Qianni's ears, wouldn't she hate him to death!?
If it wasn't a public place, and there must be some inside story, Yang Cheng really didn't care that this was a woman, and went up to slap her back, but in the end, he still suppressed his anger, stepped in front of Ma Guifang, and angrily said, "You better tell me why, why did you hit my mother-in-law, or else I will smash your face!"
As soon as Yang Chen interfered, the shrew hesitated for a moment before realizing what was going on. She sneered and said, "Great, so Ma Guifang's son-in-law is here too. Why? Are you trying to stand up for your shameless mother-in-law? Hit me! Hit me!! "
