Zhang Chengzong was shocked, and his face turned red. He stopped and said to Zhang Miaomiao, "The Third Eldest Son, I'm sorry. I was possessed. I'll take care of your mother in the future. "
Zhang Miaomiao was relieved. With her father's words, Zhang Miaomiao knew that her mother wouldn't make trouble anymore. Seeing that her father was so embarrassed that he didn't dare to look at her, Zhang Miaomiao considerately changed the topic, "Are we going to uproot Grandma's fields today?"
Zhang Miaomiao's grandparents had two sons and two daughters. Now, they lived by themselves and farmed their own fields, but their two sons would usually help them.
Zhang Miaomiao estimated their fields. There were five people in their family now, and each of them had five parts of the paddy field, which was two acres. Adding the three parts of Grandma's house, they wouldn't be able to finish it today.
"Your grandfather divided it into two parts. We'll finish your grandfather's and our own paddy field today." Zhang Chengzong said, "We'll uproot the rest later." In his heart, he planned to go home and have breakfast, and then come out to do more.
Zhang Miaomiao nodded.
Zhang Miaocao looked at Zhang Miaomiao with sparkling eyes. The Third Sister was really amazing.
In Zhang Miaocao's heart, her father had always been as tall and unshakable as a mountain. Except for her grandparents, no one in the family could persuade her father. But today, her eyes were opened. Her father actually apologized to Third Sister.
Zhang Miaocao thought, "Is this the power of studying?"
The three of them soon arrived at the edge of the field. Zhang Miaomiao wrapped her and Zhang Miaocao's faces and arms with cloth before going down to the field. Then, she focused on looking for barnyard grass and water plants that were similar to rice.
Not long after, Chen Xiuzhen also came to the edge of the field with the basket on her back. She put down her long sleeves and went into the field.
The sky slowly turned white, and the field was already busy. Many villagers were busy shuttling back and forth. The Zhang family's paddy field was on the side of the road. From time to time, people passed by and saw Zhang Miaomiao and Zhang Miaocao working in the field. They enviously said that Chen Xiuzhen and Zhang Chengzong were so lucky.
Chen Xiuzhen smiled and said some polite words to them. For a moment, her heart was swayed by two emotions. On one hand, Chen Xiuzhen was angry because Zhang Miaomiao refused the Liu's marriage. On the other hand, she enjoyed that people envied her because of The Third Eldest Son. was. Li.
Because of these two emotions in her heart, Chen Xiuzhen didn't look good. But whenever Chen Xiuzhen thought of the villagers knowing that The Third Eldest Son and Liu Guohua had broken up, she felt her heart ache. At that time, she didn't know how those gossips in the village would slander her family.
Thinking of those gossips, Chen Xiuzhen's face darkened, and she didn't pay attention to them anymore.
The sun slowly climbed up the mountain top.
Because it was hot, Zhang Miaocao took off the cloth on her neck. But Zhang Miaocao was short, and the rice plants just reached the position of her chin. After taking off the cloth, the rice leaves swept over her neck from time to time. After a while, there were red marks on her neck.
When Zhang Miaomiao raised her head, she noticed Zhang Miaocao's condition. Thinking that Zhang Miaocao had been working for a long time, Zhang Miaomiao's heart ached. She quickly said, "Fourth Sister, are you going home?"
Hearing that, Zhang Miaocao was still a little confused. She stood there not knowing what to do, and her eyes instinctively looked at Chen Xiuzhen.
Seeing Zhang Miaocao's behavior, Zhang Miaocao was a little angry, not at The Fourth Prince, but at her mother, Chen Xiuzhen.
Zhang Miaocao's birth was the least anticipated, and the family had Zhang Shugen four years later.
Compared to Zhang Shugen, Zhang Miaocao, who had just started to remember, had witnessed the difference between her mother and her younger brother. She was also taught by her mother to put Lao Wu first in everything. Zhang Miaocao had been holding it in, but recently, seeing how the old couple treasured Lao Wu, the fire in Zhang Miaocao's heart kept rising, and she didn't know when it would explode.
As for Zhang Miaocao, Zhang Miaocao felt guilty. In the past, Zhang Miaocao was busy with her studies, afraid that she wouldn't be able to study if she didn't get good grades. Therefore, she didn't pay much attention to Zhang Miaocao.
But after that dream, when he returned to the village in distress, only Fourth Sister and Second Sister lent him a helping hand. Zhang Miaocao was touched, but she also felt a little regretful. Thinking of making it up to her, Zhang Miaocao slowly approached Zhang Miaocao when she came back. In the end, the two sisters ate and lived together.
Of course, Zhang Miaocao also noticed that although Zhang Miaocao was suppressed by her mother, Chen Xiuzhen, to the point that she didn't have any temper and seemed weak. But she was hardworking, wholeheartedly, and never played tricks. This was rare and commendable.
But Zhang Miaocao felt that she should correct her temper. Otherwise, The Fourth Prince would also be good at enduring in his in-laws' house after he got married. At this time, seeing Zhang Miaocao looking at her mother, she could only speak again. "Look at your neck. Doesn't it hurt? Go back quickly. "
Seeing that Chen Xiuzhen didn't say anything, Zhang Miaocao didn't dare to move.
The Third Sister dared to quarrel with her mother, but Zhang Miaocao didn't dare to do so. Moreover, Zhang Miaocao had been working in the fields since she was seven or eight years old. Her hands and body would be scratched every year, so Zhang Miaocao was used to it.
Chen Xiuzhen was still angry. She pretended not to hear Zhang Miaocao's words and kept pulling the grass in the paddy field.
When Zhang Chengzong heard Zhang Miaocao's words, he straightened his back and realized that the sun had already climbed very high. Thus, he said, "The sun is also big. You two sisters should go back. Your mother and I will go home in a while. "
Zhang Miaocao thought that the sun was big and there was no cooking at home. Thus, she nodded and went home to cook. Then, she walked to Zhang Miaocao's side and pulled her ashore.
Chen Xiuzhen was prepared to use force since the soft approach didn't work. However, she didn't see any reaction from Zhang Miaocao. Seeing that Zhang Miaocao and Zhang Miaocao were about to leave, she immediately said, "The Third Eldest Son, you can't even take this little bit of hardship. How dare you break up with Liu Guohua?"
Zhang Miaocao was so angry that she laughed. She really couldn't understand her mother's thinking. She looked at her mother who was looking up at her with an expression that said, "Aren't you amazing? Why can't you take this little bit of hardship? Then why did you break up with Liu Guohua?"
Zhang Miaocao said slowly, "Mom, why did I break up with him? Why don't you think that he abandoned me?"
Chen Xiuzhen was so shocked that her eyes widened. Her face was full of disbelief. "How, how could that be? He, didn't he like you very much? "
Zhang Miaocao looked at her mother's reaction and was very unfilial in her heart.
Chen Xiuzhen didn't believe this excuse from the bottom of her heart.
When Zhang Chengzong brought Chen Xiuzhen to the provincial capital to see a doctor, Liu Guohua was at her beck and call her Auntie, which made Chen Xiuzhen very happy. Even the hospital was arranged by Liu Guohua. Looking at his enthusiasm, Chen Xiuzhen felt that Liu Guohua liked The Third Eldest Son very much. How could he break up with him?
Chen Xiuzhen looked at Zhang Miaocao's expression and didn't believe The Third Eldest Son's excuse. She must have said it to fool her. Looking at the two sisters walking away, Chen Xiuzhen couldn't help but get angry at Zhang Chengzong. "You didn't say anything about The Third Eldest Son's marriage?"
"Don't bother about this. I asked before. The Third Eldest Son and Liu Guohua don't have good characters. Before Liu Guohua graduated, he broke up with The Third Eldest Son." Zhang Chengzong knew Chen Xiuzhen well and came to a conclusion. As long as Liu Guohua abandoned The Third Eldest Son, there was nothing for her to do.
Although he said that, Zhang Chengzong couldn't help but recall Zhang Miaocao's words in the morning. He wondered if she had been wronged in front of Liu Guohua.
Chen Xiuzhen wanted to say something, but Zhang Chengzong had already bent down. He held his breath and said, "What do you mean by bad characters? I think The Third Eldest Son is just making things up. The last time we went to the provincial capital, Liu Guohua was such a gentle and handsome young man. Do you think we should send a telegram to Liu Guohua?"
Zhang Chengzong suddenly said seriously, "Don't bother. Let's not count on anyone to help Lao Wu reach the top in one step. It's better to rely on ourselves than on others. It's better to save up for Lao Wu. "
Chen Xiuzhen was speechless.
Seeing that Chen Xiuzhen didn't reply, Zhang Chengzong quickly said, "Don't pretend to agree but secretly oppose. Otherwise, I'll teach you a lesson. "
