Chapter 321: Stop Flattering Yourself
At the same time, Yu Xueli's family members also came over with evil intentions and wanted to plead for her again, but they happened to hear that she was engaged today. The whole family immediately became active and almost trotted towards her house.
Shen Meng, Xie Jing and several others were preparing lunch in the kitchen, while Aunt Juying, Uncle Guai and Lu Jiasheng were entertaining the guests in the house.
"Sister Lotus, please go and kill the fish. I don't dare to kill fish, so just kill the fish on the way!"
"Okay, okay, you can cook the dishes here and don't be stingy with the oil and salt. Even if you empty Shirley's oil can today, she won't feel bad."
"Hahahaha, yes, maybe you should be happy."
Shen Meng took a large spoon and scooped a lump of lard into the pot. After it was heated, she sprinkled it with green onions, peanuts and ginger. After stir-frying for a few times, she put the chopped pork belly in, and then put the soaked shredded potatoes and chilies in. The aroma instantly made people drool.
"My goodness, my sister-in-law Meng's cooking skills are really good. I have never eaten anything better than her cooking."
"Who isn't? I heard from Shirley a few days ago that my sister-in-law asked for leave to come and help. You have no idea how happy I am. I'm just envious of my sister-in-law. It was fine before. She would ask Mingyang to send some delicious food to our house when she made it at home. Now, when she goes to the county town, she also gets dishes from the state-owned restaurant when she comes back at night. She has less time to cook."
"I can't help it. We are busy with the brick kiln. Isn't it said that if this brick kiln is built, it will be the largest brick kiln factory in Ning County? How many workers will be needed here? Tsk tsk, I dare not think about it. I dare not think about it at all."
Shen Meng was cooking with a huff and puff, and she was speechless listening to the two people praising her in front of her. She said that when Uncle Guai's old ox came over today and was being vicious, she felt a little dizzy, and it turned out that it was these two people who were praising her.
After the potato shreds were fried, some eggplant shreds were stir-fried.
Just as she was about to make some braised pork, she heard the howling of ghosts and wolves at the gate of the courtyard. Shen Meng's hands were shaking as she held the spoon.
Today is Yu Xueli's big day. If that bastard comes to cause trouble, she will definitely not let him go. As long as Yu Xueli can get married safely and smoothly, she will be a typical example. In the future, there will be other women comrades like her who will bravely take a step forward.
"Oh no, oh no, I just took a look, it's Laizi's family, beating Dezi at the door, what should we do?"
When Wang Lianhua ran over, she was holding a fluttering chicken in her hand.
"Close the door, close it tightly, and ignore them. Today is Shirley's big day, and no one is allowed to come and mess up."
"Okay, I've killed the fish, I'll get rid of the chicken now."
Shen Meng nodded at her, and Xifeng lit the fire in the stove, so Xie Jinghao could cut and wash vegetables much faster.
I added water to the pot and washed it briefly, then fried some eggs with green onions. Six eggs with one green onion were stir-fried over high heat for a few times. The braised pork took a little longer to cook, and it had a salty and sweet taste. As soon as the smell came out, everyone's stomach rumbled loudly, whether they were talking in the main room or making trouble outside the yard.
Xu Laizi, who had just beaten Dezi hard with a poplar branch, swallowed his saliva several times out of greed.
"Yu Xueli, you shameless thing, you abandoned your husband and son, you are a thing that thousands of people have ridden, and you still want to remarry, do you think your son is dead? I tell you, you want to get rid of us and live a good life, that's not possible, if you don't open the door, I will beat your son to death, Yu Xueli, you bitch, open the door for me?"
"Wuwuwu, mother, wuwuwu, it hurts so much, wuwuwu." The Xu family's father and mother grabbed the branch when the beggar was knocking it down again.
"Stop hitting my grandson, son. No one is watching. Just hit him twice, pretend to hit him twice, and that will be enough. Dezi is your own son. He is the one who will take care of you until the end of your life. How could you be so cruel to him?"
"Get out of the way. How can his mother feel sorry for him if she doesn't beat him? Only by seeing his wounds can you know that his son is not doing well, and only then can you feel truly sorry for him!"
Father Xu couldn't stop him and could only pull Dezi closer to his arms. Now his grandson was very sensible and always thought of them when he had something delicious. They could no longer rely on their son and could only rely on their young grandson.
"Mother Daya, Mother Daya, my good daughter-in-law, please be kind and come out to see your son. He is about to be beaten to death by his father. You are a mother, how can you ignore it? It was all my fault before, it was all your father's and my fault. We accept it if you want to beat or scold us. Please come out and see your poor son!"
The family of four was making a lot of noise, but there was no noise in the yard.
Soon the people from the Yu family also arrived. They looked at the debt collectors who were begging for money and curled their lips in disgust. They claimed that they were different from the people from the Xu family. After all, they were her maternal family and were closer to her than them in any way.
"Hmph, what are you doing? Aren't you ashamed? Now you know you are wrong, but it's too late. You haven't treated my daughter well for a day, and now that she is doing well, you want to come to my house to ask for reconciliation. Bah, shameless. Don't forget that you are divorced and not a couple anymore. Dezi didn't treat my daughter before, so why are you coming to my house now? Are you trying to ask for favors?"
As soon as Yu's father finished speaking, Yu's mother came over.
"Get out of here now! Today is my daughter's wedding day. Don't try to bring bad luck here, or I'll report you to the commune for harassing single women and being a hooligan."
Xu Laizi threw the willow branch in his hand away and looked at the people from the Yu family with a sneer.
"Tsk, you shameless person, I don't know who you are. When that woman married me, what did you say? You said she was a disgrace to your Yu family, and that she would affect the political future of other children in your family. You just signed a letter of severance with her. Haha, why should I treat her well when she doesn't have her family to support her? What's the difference between you and my family? You rolled your eyes and looked down on me. Stop flattering yourself."
The people of the Yu family had their faces stripped off, and they all looked very embarrassed.
Yu's mother trembled as she said, "We are her biological parents, and those who are here are her biological brothers and sisters. Even if we are still connected, she can't really deny us. You guys should just get out of here and stop getting in the way."
The noise was so loud that Yu Xueli, who had been trying to remain calm in the main room, couldn't help but tremble all over, her face pale with shame and anger.
Why can't he let her go? Why does he have to pull her and make a fuss? Why can't he bear to see her have a good life for even two days!
Qian Chengwang noticed that her breathing was a little rapid, so he quickly handed her a glass of water.
"Don't worry, Shirley. Mom and I know this has nothing to do with you. Don't be afraid. We are here for you!"
Aunt Qian stood up and grabbed Yu Xueli's arm.
"Come on, let me see how these shameless people want to bully you. Your future man and mother-in-law are standing here. We will never let you and Da Ya and Xiao Ya suffer any injustice."
