Adored Koi in the ’70s

Chapter 56

Qiao Xiu Zhi became the head of the women association. Qiao Family celebrated with extra dishes that night.

In order to give his wife a celebration, Xue Chuan personally cooked. He took on making all the dishes by himself.

Qiao Family ate until their mouth was covered with oil. Even the pot full of soup was used to accompany the rice.

It was so delicious!

After Qiao Zhen Guo was full, he burped and remarked, "It's the same ingredients. Why does Dad's food taste so good and my wife's food tastes like pig food? It's hard to understand!"

Wan Chun Ju blushed with anger: "...Qiao Zhen Guo, don't eat the food I cook if you have the ability!"

Simply pissing her off!

Badmouthing her in front of so many people! Does she not need face?

Qiao Zhen Guo's expression of 'I'm doing it for your good' was asking for a beating: "Wife, you have to actively accept criticism and strive for progress. Our mom is now the head of women association. You can't drag down and embarrass her!"

Wan Chun Ju: "..."

She really wanted to gag his mouth with rice!

What did her cooking have to do with her mother-in-law being head of women association?

What goddamn logic!

Everyone had become accustomed to this couple having such a stupid talk from time to time. Nobody wasn't surprised.

Everyone thought that Qiao Xiu Zhi would be very busy in the future and seek justice for those women who were harmed by domestic violence everywhere.

Actually, it was the opposite.

Qiao Xiu Zhi had been in office for more than ten days. Not to mention that there were no women coming, not even the female mosquito had flown into the office!

Reason?

Simple.

The women who were harmed and domestically abused were very excited at first. They wanted to seek justice for themselves from Qiao Xiu Zhi. But before they went out, their men and their in-laws let out harsh declaration. Saying that if they dared to go, they would divorce her off later!

Although these women were beaten and scolded, they never thought of getting divorced. If they were divorced because they went to the women association, it would definitely not be worth it!

There were also some who saw Qiao Xiu Zhi smashed the stone with one punch. If the fist fell on their husbands, what would they do if their husband got internal injuries? Their heart ached!

So under various reasons, no one came.

When Fang Xiao Juan found out, she laughed like a hyena on the spot: "My god! She was full of words that day. And what happened? Not a single person in sight. It's better for me to be women association's head!"

This situation was indeed somewhat awkward.

Song Chun Hua came back from the community's women association and went to comfort Qiao Xiu Zhi: "Xiu Zhi, don't be discouraged. This matter is not your problem. It's those women who are... hateful!"

Many people complained that their women association was useless and could not protect those abused women.

But the problem was that many times it was them dragged their leg were none other than the women who were beaten!

After they came to complain, they may regret it immediately with a turn of a head. Or when their men got lectured, they felt heart ache.

If the militia were used to take their men away, they would cry and beg them not to take their men away. Some would go too far and turn and bite back. Saying that they were dog-biting mice and meddling with their business!

So was this infuriating?

Song Chun Hua talked about women association's bizarre incidents. Her face flushed with excitement and her chest heaved violently.

Unexpectedly, Qiao Xiu Zhi was very calm from beginning to end: "In the past, the ancestors have a saying, God help those who help themselves. If a person doesn't even want to save themselves, why should outsiders save them? So you don't have to worry. I didn't take it to heart."

No one came to women association to ask for help. Everyone thought she would be embarrassed, but she wasn't at all.

Why should she punish herself with other people's stupidity and worry about those stupid people?

There was no such reasoning!

Therefore, if they need her help, she will try her best to help them. If they would rather be beaten to death than ask for help, then they will carry the blame on their own!

Song Chun Hua looked at her with admiration: "Xiu Zhi, I think choosing you to be women association is the best decision I have ever made in my life!"

Compared with the other party, she wasn't calm.

When no one came to ask for help, she felt ashamed. When someone came for help, she felt annoyed. When she encountered a nutcase, she was always so angry that her stomach hurt!

Her spouse often told her that being women association's head for a few years, her life will be shortened by a few years!

It seems that she will have to learn from Qiao Xiu Zhi in the future.

Calm down. Must keep calm!

...

The second time Qiao Zhen Min went out on the search, he went with his third elder sister, Qiao Hong Xia.

This time, the two were still unsuccessful.

Every time the villagers saw them come back with a dejected face and a dusty atmosphere, there were all kinds of words.

One said: "Old Fifth Qiao's reaction made my heart twist. If my child disappear, I will definitely not fair as well as him!"

"Yeah. Old Fifth Qiao is a good father. It's really hard for him to go out and search for his child so often!"

"What hard!" One sarcastically uttered, "It's just a lass. Since she's gone, then she's gone. Just birth another one! He's still so young. If you have the energy to do that, might as well hurry up and give birth to a few. I say, Qiao Family has too much money and no where to spend!"

"Speaking of this, you reminded me! Where did Qiao Family get so much money to go on searches. Going to the provincial city, food, drink, lodging, and travel all cost money. It cost twenty yuan for a trip, right? Say you guys, did Qiao Family hide Xue Family's treasures from back then?"

Speaking of it now, there were still some old people who still remember how Xue Family was rich back in those days. Many people couldn't eat enough in those days. But Xue Family wore silk and satin as they ate eat bird's nest. So rich that people's teeth itched!

Later, Xue Family encounter a downfall. All the family wealth was lost by Xue Chuan's father. Who knew if they hid a gold bar or two or something.

The more everyone talked, the more red-eyed they came. Still, no one dared to go to Qiao's house to ask clearly.

After everyone left, Wan Chun Ju came out from behind the wall with cobwebs on her head. Her eyes spun.

When she went to bed at night, she pushed her man's back and spoke, "Zhen Guo, do you think Dad and Mom are hiding gold bars?"

The two in-laws love the hat calamity, Da Qiao so much now. They gave her five hundred yuan last time they sold 100-year-old Ganoderma lucidum. Who knows if they will give her the gold bars!

Qiao Zhen Guo was the kind of person who sleep as soon as he touch the bed. At this moment, he was pushed awake by his wife and said confusedly, "There are. Of course there are. There are many!"

There are many?

Wan Chun Ju's eyes instantly widened. Her heart pounded: "Then do you know where it is put?"

Qiao Zhen Guo didn't respond. There was a sound of snoring from his nose.

Wan Chun Ju was angry and anxious. How could he still fall asleep at this time?

She pushed the other party to wake up again: "Zhen Guo, tell me quickly. Where are those gold bars?"

Qiao Zhen Guo flipped his body around and muttered, "In the pigsty."

Pigsty?

Wan Chun Ju's eyes suddenly lit up. She felt that she had realized the truth!

Speaking of which, the pigsty was also one of Xue Family's properties back then. But after the founding of the state, her father-in-law took the initiative to hand over the properties to the state.

As the saying goes, the dirtiest place was the safest place. So her father-in-law could definitely hide the gold bars in the pigsty!

Wan Chun Ju was so excited that she couldn't sleep all night, tossing and turning. She kept having the feeling like she was going to get rich!

The next day, when Qiao Zhen Guo saw the dark circles under his wife's eyes, he was startled and said, "Wife, did you become a thief last night?"

Wan Chun Ju was in a good mood and didn't care what he said at all.

When it was time to eat breakfast, she announced an important message: "Mom, I have no morning sickness now. I can't sit still all day."

Everyone looked at her like she was a ghost.

Qiao Zhen Guo was surprised: "Wife, are you still my wife? When did your consciousness become so high?"

Wan Chun Ju almost fainted from anger: "...You shut up! Mom, I thought about it and felt that the pigsty job is quite suitable for me."

Chen Qiao Qiao looked up at her.

Big bum's mouth was a ghost tricking human!

Before when she, Chen Qiao Qiao was arranged to work in the pigsty, Wan Chun Ju extremely proud. Every day she came back, her body full of pig poo scent was disdained by her!

At this moment, she suddenly wanted to work in the pigsty. There was definitely a catch!

Qiao Xiu Zhi also felt that eldest daughter-in-law had a problem. Still, she was confident that the other party could not escape her grasp. So she nodded: "I will ask the production leader later if there is still a vacancy. If there is, you can go. If not, then you can do other work."

Wan Chun Ju: "..."

Damn, why didn't she think of this point?

She spun her eyes and landed on little bum Chen Qiao Qiao: "Qiao Qiao, didn't you say you hated the smell of pig poo before? Why don't I go instead of you and you do another job?"

Chen Qiao Qiao calmly clipped some food for herself and replied, "It used to be the past. I'm used to the smell of pig poo. It smells alright."

Everyone: "..."

Wan Chun Ju knew that she was deliberately going against her.

So infuriating!

...

The pears on Qiao's small house's pear tree were finally ripe and ready to be picked!

After everyone found out, they all made way to Qiao's small house to check it. After seeing the treeful of fruit, waves of gulping sound rang out.

"I've never seen such a big pear. It looks delicious!"

"Hahaha, you're a gluttonous dog. Just admit you're craving for it!"

"I am. It can't be that you don't want to eat it?"

Want! Who didn't want to eat?

There ware very few things these days. Even when one have a some money in their hand, they may not be able to buy anything. Let alone fruit. They can only go to the mountains to pick some wild fruits to eat in autumn.

No one had eaten such a large pear for many years. What's the children had never eaten it since birth.

The adults can endure. However, the children can't. They immediately started crying.

"I want to eat pears! I want to eat pears! Won't go home without pears!"

"Mom, I want to eat pears too!"

"Grandmother, didn't you say that you love me, your precious grandson the most? Then buy me pears to eat!"

Buying was impossible. No one was allowed to trade these days. But the villagers can barter.

In order to relieve their children's hunger, many people ran home to bring vegetables, cornmeal, or other food. Then they came to Qiao's house to exchange.

Some families were richer and exchanged for three or four. Some have tight wallet, only change for one. After changing, they went home to cut the pear to eat!

My god, once cut open with a knife, there's so much water!

Take a bite. My god, that's fresh!

It was the first time they've eaten such sweet and tender pears. It was worth it!

Some people were still not satisfied after eating and even took more things to exchange for a few more.

The two brothers Fang You Liang and Fang You Rou saw that everyone eating it. Their mouths craved so much that their saliva was dripping to the ground.

"Hey, Da Qiao! Come out!" Fang You Liang called to Da Qiao, who was eating a pear in the yard.

Seeing that it was them, Da Qiao walked over slowly with the pear in her hands. In front of them, she took a bite and asked, "You guys are looking for me? What's the matter?"

The two brothers stared at the pear in her hand, swallowed a few mouthfuls and said, "Do you still have any pears at home?"

Da Qiao took another bite and responded, "Yes. Do you want to eat it?"

The two brothers nodded like a woodpecker as gulped: "Yes! Yes!"

Fang You Rou raised his two dirty little paws: "I want to eat three!"

In front of them, Da Qiao crunched on the pear and said, "If you want to eat, then exchange it with something."

Fang You Liang blushed with anger: "I'm your cousin. You dare to ask for something to eat a pear!? You white-eyed wolf!"

Da Qiao took two bites and looked at them through the door of the yard: "If you don't eat it, then go away! Pi Pi come here!"

"Woof woof woof..."

Pi Pi, who already had a vigorous figure, ran over quickly. Lying at the door of the yard, he barked at the two brothers.

Fang You Liang and Fang You Rou were so frightened that their faces turned pale. They turned around and ran away as if they didn't their butts.

When the two brothers returned to Fang's house, old woman Fang knew that they didn't get any pears to eat, so she jumped in anger and cursed Da Qiao loudly.

There was a sudden "kacha" sound.

Then a sound of slaughtering pig rang in the yard: "Ouch, my old waist..."

Although old woman Fang's waist was healed, she was old and didn't use any medication. So if she didn't pay attention to the sprained area, it was easy to get sprained again.

She was so agitated just now and jumped around like a grasshopper. Wasn't this asking a problem to jump out?

Da Qiao didn't know that Fang Family met with misfortune again. Her heart was currently soak in happiness.

Because tomorrow was her birthday. Her grandmother said they'll celebrate her birthday!
