Volume 1, Unspeakable Absurdity Chapter 2, There Are No Good People in Ten Thousand Households(2/2)
"Why did you come here?" She was very obedient and allowed the Ironborn to indulge, but she couldn't help complaining to the Ironborn: "I'm almost exhausted."
Pig paws, pig heads, pig knuckles, and more than a hundred kilograms of goods to be processed were all completed by her alone. She was almost idle all day long, which made the Ironborn feel distressed.
"Who did your father lose his temper at last night?" This was the answer Wang Li desperately wanted to know.
Last night, Tiemin deliberately came home from get off work early and brought his father to Wang Li's house to meet his in-laws.
This was Zhou Zhiqiang's idea. He came specially to invite Wang Li's mother to his home for an engagement dinner, but they ended up unhappy.
Tie Min gave a helpless smile, tried to remain calm, and told Wang Li: "My father had a cerebral hemorrhage last night and almost passed away."
Wang Li was so surprised that she almost couldn't breathe. Her eyes made Tiemin's heart beat faster after just one glance. She flickered for a few times and was so nervous that she didn't dare to speak anymore.
"Don't be afraid, he is out of danger now." Tiemin didn't want to tell her about the quarrel between him and his father when he returned home last night.
He had to let Wang Li know that the wedding date they had agreed upon must be postponed indefinitely.
At least until his father has fully recovered and cannot get sick again due to excitement, he can make his own decisions and complete his second willful act in this life.
I will never marry anyone other than Wang Li in this life!
This was the main reason for Zhou Zhiqiang's illness last night, and it was also the first time in Tiemin's life that he acted willfully in front of his father.
Zhou Zhiqiang has been driving a locomotive all his life, and his highest title is chief driver.
There are three people in their crew, the driver, the co-driver, and the stoker. Because he sits in the driver's seat, he got such a title.
To put it bluntly, it is not as famous as the name of the iron polling conductor.
If Zhou Zhiqiang knew that more than ten years later, his eldest son Tiemin, an honest man who had nothing to do with the world, would be able to break through the old Zhou family's barrier of being an official for generations and become the director of a storage and transportation company through hard work.
Chairman, he is notoriously stubborn in the railway area of the town. I estimate that, maybe, probably, nine out of ten, he will regret today's stubbornness.
Regardless of Zhou Zhiqiang's lack of social status, he values face more than his life. He always educates his two sons, saying that to be a manly man, spitting is a thorn in the side, and one must keep his word.
But he was the first to go back on his promise.
Before entering Wang Li's house, Zhou Zhiqiang repeatedly told Tie Min: "No matter what conditions Wang Li's mother wants, my father will try his best to satisfy her even if she wants to sell iron. If you can marry Xiao Li into the house, you will make a lot of money."
"
The reason why Zhou Zhiqiang is anxious to arrange the marriage between Luo Tiemin and Wang Li is largely because he has no confidence in Tiemin, a silly and honest son.
They were afraid that if time passed, the iron people would be unable to restrain Wang Li, and someone with the ability would snatch her away.
Wang Li's mother Xie Guizhi, in order to welcome Zhou Zhiqiang to visit her in-laws, she closed the stall early, had her hair permed, and changed into a set of clothes for the New Year.
Xie Guizhi also spread a new sheet embroidered with a big peony flower on the fire kang, placed a small kang table on it, and placed a plate of fruits and a plate of sugar cubes.
She heard that Zhou Zhiqiang smoked, so she specially bought a box of Dachongjiu cigarettes, which was definitely suitable for entertaining distinguished guests.
When Zhou Zhiqiang walked into Wang Li's courtyard, he was still smiling. When he saw Xie Guizhi waiting at the door, his face dropped and he opened his mouth and said: "Tiemin, go home!"
what is wrong?
When Tiemin returned home confused, Zhou Zhiqiang took a small rice bowl and poured out a bowl of wine from the wine jar. After drinking it in one gulp, he burped and said to Tiemin: "Even if you marry someone else in this life,
If you don’t want a wife, you can’t have this girl.”
When Zhou Zhiqiang saw Wang Li for the first time, the creases at the corners of his eyes were squeezed into tears.
He called Xiao Li one after another, opening and closing his mouth to say that Tie Min was so beautiful and blessed. When he saw Xie Guizhi, Wang Li suddenly became that girl.
This was not too much. What the Ironborn couldn't accept the most was the reason for rejection given by his father.
Zhou Zhiqiang said: "There are no good people in a household worth ten thousand yuan. If you marry her, you will fall into a pit of fire for the rest of your life."
Ouch, isn't this forcing a mute to curse?
