Wanghai County, Changping Village.
Everyone gathered in the backyard kitchen of Yang Huazhong's house and chattered for a long time.
What they discussed over and over again were the matters that Yang Huamei had argued about before.
Mrs. Da Sun said: "It is impossible to really cut off contact with your mother's family. A woman can't break up with her mother's family even if she breaks it off with no one!"
As soon as Da Sun's remarks came out, they received strong approval from Sun, Bao Suyun, and Cao Bamei.
For Sun and Cao Bamei, the Sun family is their real natal family and their roots.
Sun and Da Sun are sisters.
As for Cao Bamei and the man from the eldest Sun family, who was the uncle in Yang Ruoqing's words, they were siblings, just like Yang Huazhong and Yang Huamei.
Moreover, Cao Bamei could no longer survive in her hometown in the mountains when she was a girl. Her widowed mother was old and life was hard in the mountains. Her brothers and sisters-in-law did not want to see the youngest sister at all.
One sister-in-law even contacted an old bachelor's family further up in the mountains who couldn't find a wife.
I want to sell Cao Bamei to be a child bride!
When Cao Bamei's widowed mother heard about this, she pretended to send Cao Bamei out to help her send a message to her son who had married into the Sun family outside the mountain, thus giving Cao Bamei a chance to escape.
After Cao Bamei escaped that time, she went directly to the Dasun family and his wife.
The eldest Sun's sister-in-law was kind-hearted, and she sympathized with the sister-in-law's plight at that time, and the sister-in-law was old enough to be the eldest Sun's daughter.
So Cao Bamei stayed in the Sun family. Moreover, because of their proximity to each other and fate, Cao Bamei and Yang Yongjin saw each other right and got married.
Now more than ten years have passed, Cao Bamei has taken root in Changping Village, and the Sun family is her real natal family in her heart.
As for the mountains where she was born and raised, she has only returned once in the past ten years.
That was when her widowed mother passed away. Accompanied by Yang Yongjin, she went back with her brother and sister-in-law to pay their respects.
I never went back after that.
We have long since severed ties with Shanli.
But those brothers and sisters in the mountains come out every year, and they still want to go to Sun's house to enjoy the autumn breeze.
"Sister-in-law, I have a suggestion."
Thinking of this, Cao Bamei suddenly turned around and spoke to Da Sun next to her.
"What's your suggestion?" Da Sun asked.
Cao Bamei's thin face suddenly became sulky: "If those people from the mountains come to fight against the autumn wind again in the future, you and my brother should not be soft-hearted anymore!"
"ah?"
Da Sun was stunned for a moment, then smiled.
"I mean, Bamei, what's going on with you? We're talking about your Aunt Mei'er right now, why did you get involved with those people in Caoshu Gou?"
Yes, Cao Bamei and his sister all came from a place called Caoshugou in the deep mountains and old forests of Mianniu Mountain.
Sunjiagou is relatively deep enough, right?
Caoshu Valley is still inside, is it scary?
The conversation between Da Sun and Cao Bamei also attracted the attention of Yang Ruoqing and Sun next to them.
Yang Ruoqing remembered that when the Sun family was still in Sunjiagou, the Cao family never seemed to come to catch the autumn wind, because they knew that the Sun family's life was not easy.
The main reason why my uncle moved into Sun's family was because the Cao family's life was too hard. It is said that several brothers took turns wearing a pair of trousers when going out. Those who had no trousers could only lie on the kang and dare not go to the ground.
The uncle was really forced to do nothing, so he married into the Sun family through someone's introduction.
Although the Sun family was tight at that time, the old Sun was willing to work, and the eldest Sun was also a strong woman who could endure hardships.
With the help of the father and daughter, the skinny uncle can also farm and raise sheep, and the family atmosphere is good.
Later, because the Yang family became prosperous, the Sun family was fished out of the mountains in one fell swoop. This was the day when the situation really opened up...
So, the Cao family, who had not moved around for several years, now came to recognize their relatives.
Because the eldest uncle was a married woman, the Cao family meant that if the eldest uncle could not act as a son, he would have to move around with the Cao family as a married daughter.
So the Sun family has relatives from the Cao family who are difficult to deal with in the mountains...
"Bamei, what's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly mention the Cao family?" Da Sun asked Cao Bamei again.
"Oh, by the way, you didn't mention it. I almost forgot. The Cao family hasn't come here yet this year. In previous years, during spring plowing, they were about to run out of crops, but this year they didn't come over to borrow rice. ,Strange!"
"It would be better not to come. I wish they would never come!" Cao Bamei said bitterly.
Everyone just laughed helplessly at Cao Bamei's angry words.
Yang Ruoqing said: "Your situation is exactly the opposite of that of the old Yang family."
"In your situation, it's your mother's side that keeps pulling on her crotch."
"As for our old Yang family, the daughter who is married outside is pulling her crotch. Anyway, she is pulling her crotch. Can't you be nice to me and everyone be nice?"
Cao Bamei shook her head, "Qing'er, the Cao family is even more terrifying!"
"If it's just to relieve the autumn wind, I won't hate them so much."
"But my eldest brother and sister-in-law over there, when they come to Sun's house to play in the autumn wind in the past two years, they will inevitably bump into me and my two daughters."
"Xiuxiu told the Li family that we were going to kiss each other, so they stopped talking about it. They actually focused on my second daughter, Xiuhong, and my sister-in-law had the nerve to say that her youngest son was eighteen years old and she hadn't said anything about it yet. , if it’s just right for Xiu Hong to marry her, and the cousin and cousin match up, we can also get closer and closer to each other. This makes me so angry that I never want to associate with them again!”
When Mrs. Sun heard this, she was so shocked that her jaw almost dropped to the ground.
"What? What are you talking about? Your eldest brother and sister-in-law still want to embroider red embroidery? No, they came here last year to catch the autumn wind, but they didn't mention it to me. I'm still in the dark!"
Sun, Bao Suyun, and Yang Ruoqing were also dumbfounded.
"Xiu Hong is just ten years old. How young are you talking to an eighteen-year-old cousin? What a joke!"
Yang Ruoqing was the first to express her stance, "It's impossible for my second brother to agree to that impossible thing!"
Even if that cousin is Jia Baoyu!
Wrong, we shouldn't use the comparison with Jia Baoyu. Jia Baoyu is a waste among women.
The cousin of the Cao family should be an older bachelor who is uneducated, brutal, vulgar and backward in the mountains.
Moreover, she is so much older than Xiu Hong, and yet the two families are even closer to each other. It is really an international joke.
Sun and Bao Suyun also shook their heads.
Sun said: "Although I have never met the boy, just hearing this condition is not right."
Bao Suyun also frowned: "Xiu Hong is only ten years old. It will take at least six years before she can get married. In six years, that man will be twenty-four and is about to enter his third year of life."
Cao Bamei clapped her hands and said, "That's right. People in the mountains look older. I saw that nephew once. My God, he was said to be sixteen or seventeen years old at the time, but his face looked like he was in his early twenties." Well, if my family Xiu Hong stands with him, she will almost catch up with her father and daughter."
