Chapter 160 Don’t Come Back to Harm Others
early morning,

As usual, Xu Yuping got up quietly and prepared to make breakfast. As soon as she walked out of the house, she saw Li Guoqiang practicing boxing in the yard.

The smooth movements, coupled with the tall and agile posture, immediately made her mesmerized.

When she came to her senses, she found that Li Guoqiang had come to her at some point, looking at her with a smile on his face, making her cheeks feel slightly hot.

"Why are you up so early?"

"Ah!"

Li Guoqiang was delighted, and then he said with a laugh: "I am planning to go to the commune to buy mesh! So I got up early to practice boxing, so that I can set off earlier later."

In fact, he just came back a little late, so in order to prevent Xu Yuping from finding out that he had been out at night, he simply practiced his daily martial arts skills in the yard.

"Ok!"

Hearing this, Xu Yuping nodded hurriedly and said, "Then I'll go to the bathroom first, and I'll come back to make breakfast for you later!"

After saying that, she hurried to the toilet, obviously she was very anxious.

Not long after, Li Guoqiang had a delicious breakfast with Xu Yuping's attentive service, and then took the eager Zhu Caixia and Xu Dani on a sled to Majiadian Commune.

On the way, Xu Dani hesitated for a long time, but finally couldn't help but asked with some anticipation: "Big brother, can you make me a new quilt?"

"Why?"

Li Guoqiang raised his eyebrows, then asked in confusion: "Wouldn't it be warmer for you to sleep with your grandma now?"

"It's quite warm!"

Xu Dani nodded, then pouted her lips slightly and said with a depressed look on her face: "But every time grandma gets up, she wakes me up with the cold."

"That's it!"

Li Guoqiang was delighted, and then he laughed and agreed: "Okay, then I will make you a new quilt when I get back."

"Brother, you are so kind!"

"Hmm!"

When Xu Dani saw that Li Guoqiang agreed, she immediately praised him with a look of surprise, and even put her arms around Li Guoqiang's neck and kissed him on the face.

"Forehead"

Li Guoqiang was slightly stunned, then asked in surprise: "Who did you learn this from?"

"You!"

Xu Dani's face turned serious, and then she answered seriously: "You said that the prince saved the princess, and the princess kissed him to thank him. So if I want to thank you, shouldn't I kiss you?"

Li Guoqiang: “.”

"What happened?"

Seeing Li Guoqiang's speechless expression, Xu Dani hurriedly asked, "Big brother, don't you want me to kiss you?"

"no!"

Hearing this, Li Guoqiang hurriedly shook his head and explained, "It's not that I don't want you to kiss me, it's just that you are a girl, you can't kiss others casually like this."

"Then you are not someone else, big brother!"

Xu Dani rolled her eyes, then retorted somewhat unhappily.

"Forehead"

Li Guoqiang's mouth twitched, and for a moment he didn't know how to explain it.

"Dani!"

At this time, Zhu Caixia, who had been listening for a long time, hurriedly began to preach in a deep voice: "Brother Qiangzi is right, we girls can't kiss others casually, even if he is an older brother."

After saying that, she added in her heart.

If you want to kiss someone, I have to be the one!

"Oh!"

When Xu Dani saw Zhu Caixia say the same thing, she could only nod in agreement somewhat resentfully.

Seeing this, Li Guoqiang breathed a sigh of relief, and then secretly decided that he would have to be more careful when telling fairy tales to Xu Dani in the future.

In addition, in order to make up for the lack of education Xu Dani suffered from without a mother since childhood, he felt it was very necessary for Xu Yuping to teach Xu Dani more.

Otherwise, according to the current situation, it is very likely to grow crooked in the future.

While they were continuing to rush towards Majiadian Commune, in Zhujiatun of Shaoguojuzi Commune, after several hours of cleaning by the villagers, Zhu Gui's family's buried clothes, quilts, washbasins and other daily necessities were finally found from the ruins.

Later, because they had no money and could not rebuild the house, Zhu Gui and Zhao Chunhua could only choose to take some of their more valuable belongings, as well as Wu Guifen and three siblings, Zhu Caiyan, Zhu Jincai, and Zhu Jinbao, and go to Zhao Chunhua's parents' home to live temporarily.

However, before they left, the team leader Zhu Jiliang was worried that things might get complicated, so he had Zhu Gui taken to the commune's winery to complete the job transfer procedures, and then allowed Zhu Gui to leave with his wife, children and mother.

Then, he stood at the entrance of the village, looking at Zhu Gui and his family pulling the sled in such a miserable state, and he couldn't help but shook his head in his heart.

Logically speaking, Zhu Gui's house was collapsed by the snow, and the village cadres and relatives and friends should have lent a hand to help Zhu Gui's family get through the difficult times.

But who made Zhu Gui become a thief who stole public property?
In addition, the people in the village thought that Zhu Gui's family was too evil, so no one dared to lend a hand, for fear of being implicated.

If it weren't for the job quota in the brewery, which had already been decided to be compensated to the team, he wouldn't want to care about it now.

Moreover, in his opinion, given the current situation of Zhu Gui's family, it would be unlikely for them to stay in Zhao Chunhua's parents' home, and they would eventually have to come back to him as the team leader.

What should he do then?

Thinking of this thorny problem, he first frowned slightly, then suddenly turned around and looked towards the pigpen of the brigade, and gradually an idea came into his mind.

If it really doesn't work, he can only place Zhu Gui's family in the pigpen breeding house.

At this time, Zhu Gui and Zhao Chunhua had no idea that Zhu Jiliang was ready to rent the pigpen of the brigade to their family as a shelter. As they walked, they whispered about how to turn things around.

After much discussion, they finally had to decide on Zhu Caiyan.

Originally, they were planning to marry Zhu Caiyan to Song Dawei so that she could become an apprentice of Song Dawei's father, learn the craft of winemaking, become a formal worker in the winery, and at the same time get a generous dowry to build a house for their eldest son Zhu Jincai and get him married.

Now, since they have lost their jobs, their money, and still owe a large sum of money to the Zhujiatun Production Brigade, they are thinking about whether they can change the conditions, increase the bride price several times, pay off the debt first, and then rebuild the house.

So, they didn't walk far before turning around and heading towards Shaoguojuzi Commune. However, what they didn't expect was that when they found Ding Xiumei and talked about the marriage of Song Dawei and Zhu Caiyan, Ding Xiumei directly rejected it.

Because everyone in the winery already knew that Zhu Gui's family had stolen public property, she naturally would not let her eldest son marry the daughter of a thief.

What's more, Zhu Gui and Zhao Chunhua asked for a huge amount of money as a betrothal gift of 300 yuan.

This is simply wishful thinking.

After learning of Ding Xiumei's attitude, Zhu Gui and Zhao Chunhua were dumbfounded for a moment, then hurriedly reduced the bride price by half and praised Zhu Caiyan very much.

However, before they could finish speaking, Ding Xiumei turned around and left in a hurry, obviously not wanting to have anything to do with them.

In desperation, they could only plan to stay at Zhao Chunhua's parents' home first, and then slowly make plans.

Not long after, they arrived at Zhaojiatun, which also belonged to Shaoguojuzi Commune. Before they entered the village, they were stopped by Zhao Chunhua's elder brother Zhao Chunxiang.

When Zhao Chunhua saw this, she hurried over to explain to Zhao Chunxiang that their family was being wronged.

Unfortunately, Zhao Chunxiang didn't believe it at all and said it directly.

"Second sister, don't blame me, your elder brother, for speaking harshly. In our Shaoguojuzi Commune, which production brigade doesn't know that your husband is a thief who stole public property?"

"If I let you stay at my house, the whole team will think our house is a den of thieves!"

"If you still have a conscience, then don't come back to harm others!"

"Brother, our house has collapsed. Where else can we go?"

When Zhao Chunhua heard Zhao Chunxiang's heartless words, she couldn't help crying out loud.

"Humph!"

Zhao Chunxiang snorted coldly, then said with a sullen face: "I have long told you not to go too far. Her husband and father just died, and not only did you take her compensation and job quota, you also kicked her out of the house."

"Is this your retribution now?"

"Brother, I know I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. Can you let us stay at home for a while?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Chunhua couldn't help but plead with a look of regret on her face.

If she had known this would be the result, she would not have dared to embezzle Xu Yuping's compensation and job quota even if she had ten times the courage!

If she could have discussed it with Xu Yuping properly, maybe she could have gotten the job quota, and even find a new family for Xu Yuping to marry into in the future and earn some dowry.

It's a pity that she understands it too late now.

If anyone is to blame, we can only blame her for being blinded by greed and short-sightedness, and using the most stupid means.

"okay!"

Zhao Chunxiang looked at Zhao Chunhua crying and felt soft-hearted. He waved his hand and said, "Here is 30 yuan that your third and fourth brothers and I collected. It's a small token of our appreciation to you."

"Take the money and go back to your production team to rent a house and settle down. Then you can slowly think about how to live in the future!"

After saying that, without waiting for Zhao Chunhua to say anything, he stuffed the money into Zhao Chunhua's hand and turned away.

From beginning to end, he didn't even look at Zhu Gui, as if he treated Zhu Gui as transparent.

When Zhu Gui saw Zhao Chunxiang leave like this, his expression suddenly became very ugly, and he couldn't help but angrily said to Zhao Chunhua: "Look, look, I told you not to come, but you insisted on coming."

"Now, your elder brother won't even let us enter the village. This is simply embarrassing us."

"Look at my sister-in-law's family. They were in a lot of debt, but they still asked her to move her household registration back."

"And your parents just used this 30 yuan to send you away."

"I was really blind to marry a useless bitch like you!"

"You still have the nerve to say it?"

Zhao Chunhua was immediately furious when she heard what Zhu Gui said, and then she angrily retorted: "If you hadn't shamelessly said that you wanted to marry me, how could I have married a loser like you?"

"Also, can you blame my family for this? Isn't this because of the good things you did?"

"What did I do?"

Zhu Gui glared, then said indignantly, "It was you who was blinded by money and insisted on letting me take the compensation and job quota away from you."

"Is that because I'm greedy for money?"

When Zhao Chunhua heard Zhu Gui put the blame on her, she couldn't help but yelled in grievance, "This was your mother's idea. She said that your sister-in-law is an outsider and asked me to ask you to get the compensation and job quota."

"Now that something has happened, you are putting all the blame on me. Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"

Hearing this, Zhu Gui was stunned, then quickly turned his head to look at Wu Guifen who was sitting on the sled on the other side, wanting to know whether what Zhao Chunhua said was true?
Wu Guifen's heart tightened, and she quickly opened her mouth and cursed: "Zhao Chunhua, you bitch are crazy, you bite whoever you catch, right? When did I ever give you these bad ideas?"

"Besides, even if... even if I gave you some advice, wasn't it for your own good?"

"I bother!"

Zhao Chunhua spat, then said with dissatisfaction: "It is because of your bad advice that we have ended up like this. Do you still have the nerve to say that you are doing this for our own good?"

"I"

Wu Guifen opened her mouth when she heard this, but for a moment she didn't know how to refute.

"enough!"

Seeing Wu Guifen like this, Zhu Gui knew that all this was caused by Wu Guifen. He could not help but glare at Wu Guifen with some resentment, then waved his hand and said, "What time is it now? Are you still in the mood to quarrel here?"

"While you have the time, why don't you think about what we should do next?"

After saying that, he walked to the side, squatted on the ground, took out his pipe, and stuffed dry tobacco into the pipe with a gloomy face.

Wu Guifen and Zhao Chunhua no longer had the mood to continue arguing, and they were both wondering what to do.

As for Zhu Caiyan, Zhu Jincai and Zhu Jinbao, the three siblings, they stood obediently on the other side, not daring to even breathe, for fear of angering Zhu Gui, Zhao Chunhua and Wu Guifen and getting scolded.

At the same time, Li Guoqiang had already bought mesh gauze at Majiadian Commune, and also bought some snacks for Zhu Caixia and Xu Dani. Then he hurried back home and was busy making a new quilt for Xu Dani.

However, before he could finish making the quilt, three female educated youth, Shang Xiuzhen, Shen Fengxia and Pan Qiaoyan, suddenly came to his door.
