Chapter 45： dowry

Zhang Guilan looked at Liu Xiangqian, who was snoring loudly, and thought for a while, but didn't tell him that she was on leave, and she didn't say that she was going to see Hua Zhao tomorrow.

She sat there for a long time, then quietly got up and went to the barn.

The Liu family lived in a single house, but it was very small, with three small houses and a small yard. There was a barn and a kitchen in the yard, and the building area was only 60 to 70 square meters.

She felt the darkness, put her hand into a gap in the corner of the barn, touched it for a long time, and found a flat iron pencil case.

When I opened it, there was a cloth bag with zero and zero corners, which added up to more than 20 yuan.

She took out all the money, leaned against the wall, and sighed.

This money was saved for Hua Zhao's marriage. She thought she could save a few more years. After all, the news that her mother brought every time was not very good.

Hua Zhao is as fat as a bear, oh, even a bear is not necessarily as fat as her.

Her temper is the real murderer. Everyone in the village made her beat her over and over. Even her grandparents dared to beat her. Who else would she dare not beat?

When the matchmaker saw her, she walked away.

She didn't expect Hua Zhao to marry so soon... She thought she had to wait until she became an old girl and then marry a flawed man.

She wanted to save some money and put her by her side.

Unexpectedly, she married a soldier!

A serving soldier is good, first of all, he must not be disabled... Then he has a stable job, and he must be a good person, very honest and kind...

Zhang Guilan smiled. The moonlight blurred the wrinkles on her face and made her eyebrows stand out. She looked very delicate and beautiful.

She must have been a beauty when she was young.

......

The next morning, Zhang Guilan had breakfast last night, packed up the dishes, went out as usual, and then got on the train to the countryside.

Standing outside Kuoshantun, she didn't take a step.

She dare not.

She was afraid of meeting acquaintances and hearing some gossip.

She was also afraid that she would be seen like this.

When she left, she was still a flower, and the villagers thought she abandoned her child and went to the city to enjoy happiness, but in the end, hehe.

She is sincere, not stupid, she also wants to save face.

Zhang Guilan took a deep breath, lowered his head and quickened his pace.

Fortunately, the village was not big, and everyone was in the field at this time, so she came all the way to Hua Sanniu's house.

This was her original home, and she thought Hua Zhao lived here.

Every time Mrs. Zhang mentioned Hua Zhao to her, it was a bad thing about Hua Zhao. No matter how hard she lived, she never mentioned good things and didn't mention insignificant things.

Like this house and the house where Hua Zhao lives now, they have nothing to do with her, they are all irrelevant matters, and Mrs. Zhang never mentioned it.

"Who are you looking for?" Seeing a woman standing at the door hesitating and not leaving, Jiang Qin came out and asked.

She is a brigade accountant. She can be full-time, and has work points even if she does not have to work, so she is usually very free.

Zhang Guilan recognized her at a glance: "Jiang Qin? ... Is Hua Zhao at home?"

"Who are you?" Jiang Qin was stunned. How did Hua Zhao find her door?

"I am, I am..." Zhang Guilan lowered her head and whispered: "I am Zhang Guilan."

"Ah!" Jiang Qin couldn't believe it until she said it. Zhang Guilan, who was like a village flower back then, looks like an old lady now!

Really, looks like a 50-year-old old lady, thin and ugly!

"Haha..." Jiang Qin couldn't hold back her joy, and quickly held back: "What, you are looking for Hua Zhao, why did you think of looking for Hua Zhao?"

Zhang Guilan felt uncomfortable when she heard her laughter, but she still said, "I heard that she is married, I'll take a look."

"Oh my God, why did you come here after two months of marriage?" Jiang Qin exaggerated.

"I, I only know the letter." Zhang Guilan said.

"Oh." Jiang Qin glanced at her up and down, and saw that although she had no patches, it was difficult to see the clothes that did not fit for a long time. She asked curiously, "I heard that you went to the provincial capital, how is the provincial capital? Okay. ?"

Afterwards, Mrs. Zhang never mentioned her affairs, even to the people in her village. She was afraid that people in the village would know that Xin had met Zhang Guilan and go to her to talk nonsense.

Fortunately, Zhang Guilan worked hard in recent years, never took a vacation, and never met anyone in the village.

"I went to the provincial capital a few years ago, but I came back a long time ago. I have been back for a few years." Zhang Guilan told the truth.

Jiang Qin's eyes flickered, and she said rudely, "I came back a long time ago? You haven't come to see Hua Zhao for so many years after returning to the county seat? Your mother's heart is too cruel!"

In the past, she had a good relationship with Zhang Guilan. She can speak well, Zhang Guilan is diligent and capable, and the two families are still relatives, so there is no reason to have enemies.

But now, the former good friend, looking at her with that kind of eyes, and speaking to her with such a tone, Zhang Guilan felt uncomfortable and wronged in her heart.

"Although I didn't come to see Hua Zhao, I gave Hua Zhao things and money every month. I, I didn't ignore her." Zhang Guilan said with tears.

To outsiders who don't know Hua Zhao, she also takes her reputation into consideration, but the people who rely on Shantun, her mother said, who don't know Hua Zhao? They were all beaten and scolded by her.

Everyone knows her.

So she dares to say some things, and she doesn't want to carry a bad reputation. Although she is not good, it is not that she has done nothing.

Although her mother told her not to mention these things, she didn't mention it in front of Hua Zhao, she just hoped that everyone would not misunderstand her too much and accumulate virtue.

Jiang Qin's eyes widened, and she asked in surprise, "You gave Hua Zhao things and money? When?!"

"Almost every month." Zhang Guilan was also a little strange: "My mother said that she came to send flowers to Zhao every month, didn't you see her?"

Her mother doesn't ask her for money every month, but her mother sends money to Hua Zhao every month. After so many times, has Jiang Qin ever met her?

Jiang Qin took a deep breath and suppressed her hilarious laughter.

OMG! What did she find? !

"I didn't see it! Your mother hasn't been here once! It's been more than 10 years! She's never been here!" She couldn't help laughing until her face was contorted with the last sentence.

"It's impossible!" Zhang Guilan's face turned pale.

"Oh, she came before." Jiang Qin said.

Zhang Guilan breathed a sigh of relief, she said...

"Just a few days ago, she came to our village for the first time, for the first time in 10 years, to see Hua Zhao, and then she was kicked out by Hua Qiang, and she never came again, but sent her grandson-in-law to Hua Zhao's house to eat every day. I don't want to leave."

Jiang Qin couldn't hide her schadenfreude: "It doesn't matter if you don't believe me, you can ask whoever you believe in. You can ask anyone who supports Shantun. There is one sentence that is different from what I said, and my surname is yours!"

Zhang Guilan was already stunned, she dared to make such a promise, that means...

"Let's go, I'll take you to ask Hua Zhao, and you will face each other!" Jiang Qin took Zhang Guilan and left: "I tell you, Hua Zhao is the child I grew up with... oh, yes You are born, people say that three years old look old, Hua Zhao, although he has a bad temper, but let's talk about it, this child is real and never lies!"
