Traveling through the 1970s: The young wife loves to make trouble

Chapter 60 Eavesdropping on the Huang Family

"I... I'm fine." After all, he was a man who had seen a lot of storms. After a brief moment of daze, Mr. Tao came back to his senses and looked at Tao Qiuyi. For some reason, he felt that she seemed like a different person.

"You..." His lips, cracked and purple from the cold, moved a few times before finally closing without saying anything.

He clearly remembered the day when the team leader sent someone to tell him that his granddaughter, Tao Lingyu, who had been sent to the countryside as an educated youth...

No, she is no longer his granddaughter. Her surname is Huang, and her name is Huang Lingyu. She is from the Huang family, a genuine poor peasant family. Qiuyi, who grew up in the Huang family, is his granddaughter. She has now changed her name to Tao Qiuyi.

The captain sent someone to inform him to go and pick up his granddaughter. He went, but his granddaughter was unwilling to come back with him.

The skinny and cowardly-looking little girl couldn't even accept that she had suddenly become the granddaughter of a labor camp prisoner from a poor peasant.

He would never forget the hateful look she gave him.

"Grandpa, why are you sitting alone on the edge of the field in such a cold day?" Tao Qiuyi knew very little about the original owner's grandfather.

Not to mention Tao Qiuyi, even the original owner only met Grandpa Tao briefly on the day the incident of reporting the wrong child broke out.

The only impression I have is that the original owner was unwilling to go with Mr. Tao.

"My little grandson ran out alone. I was worried that something might happen to him, so I came out to look for him. When I was tired, I sat on the edge of the field for a while." Old man Tao only said that he came out to look for his grandson and did not dare to say anything else.

Hearing her calling him "old man", Old Man Tao was not sure whether Tao Qiuyi still remembered who he was after their quick meeting that day.

When the villagers saw him, they either called him a murderer or a labor camp prisoner.

He didn't dare tell her that he was her biological grandfather, for fear of upsetting her again.

Little grandson, where did his little grandson come from? Tao Qiuyi was puzzled, but did not show it on his face. He smiled and asked, "How old is your grandson? How dare he run outside in such cold weather?"

"Xiaoying is ten years old." Old Master Tao answered blankly, but he was screaming wildly in his heart, she is smiling at me, she is actually smiling at me.

Xiaoying sounds like a girl's name, but Grandpa Tao said it was a grandson, so it must be a boy. Tao Qiu saw Grandpa Tao looking at him blankly, and remembered the original owner's attitude towards his own grandfather.

Tao Qiuyi cursed the old man in his heart and said, "Grandpa, your grandson is ten years old now. He should be able to find his way back. When he gets tired of playing, he will come back by himself."

"It's so cold, you'll get sick if you stay outside for too long. How about I take you home first?"

She said she wanted to take him home. Mr. Tao was surprised and shocked. Just as he was about to agree, he suddenly thought of his reputation.

"No, you don't have to send me back. I can go back by myself." Old Master Tao waved his hand to refuse and stood up with difficulty.

Tao Qiuyi reached out to help him, but he refused.

"Little girl, it's very cold outside. You should go home early." After saying this, Mr. Tao looked at her several times, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

Today, Huang Lingyu came to tell him that Qiuyi got married, and married a cripple.

He wanted to ask her what was going on, but he didn't dare to ask.

"Okay." Seeing that Mr. Tao had something to say to her but didn't dare to say it, Tao Qiuyi didn't ask, but only reminded her: "Be careful on the road."

"Okay, okay." Mr. Tao said yes three times and reminded her, "You too, be sure to be safe on the way back."

Seeing Tao Qiuyi nod, Old Man Tao walked away slowly, pausing twice on the way, and finally left without looking back. Watching the old man's back getting farther and farther away, Tao Qiuyi felt indescribable. Anyway, it was not good. She didn't let this emotion affect her for long, and quickened her pace towards the mountains.

The Huang family is very lively today.

The quarrel even alarmed Aunt Hehua who lived next door.

"Mom, why are you going out in such a cold day?" Aunt Hehua's daughter-in-law came out of the house and just saw Aunt Hehua opening the door of the main room and preparing to go out.

"I'm not going out." Aunt Lotus looked at her daughter-in-law and asked, "Is Xiaodouzi asleep?"

Xiaodouzi is Aunt Hehua's grandson and is five years old this year.

Aunt Hehua's daughter-in-law's surname is Huang, and her name is Huang Ziteng. She has the same surname as the Huang family next door, but they are not relatives.

"I fell asleep. I'm a little thirsty, so I came out to get a glass of water." Huang Ziteng walked to the cabinet in the corner of the main room, picked up the thermos on the cabinet, and poured a cup of hot water.

"Ziteng, I just heard the Huang family seemed to be arguing, and I want to go to the yard to listen more clearly." Aunt Hehua said.

"Mom." Huang Ziteng put down the thermos and turned to look at her mother-in-law. "What does their quarrel have to do with us? It's so cold, just stay indoors and don't go out."

There was another quarrel next door, and this time Aunt Hehua heard clearly the names of the people mentioned in the quarrel.

"Qiu Yi, I heard them talking about Qiu Yi." Aunt He Hua could no longer contain herself. "No, I have to go out and listen. I wonder if they are planning something bad and waiting to deal with Qiu Yi."

Huang Ziteng wanted to persuade her mother-in-law again, "Mom, Sister Qiuyi is no longer a member of the Huang family. Even if the Huang family is planning to do something bad, they can't do anything to her. Besides, didn't you say that Sister Qiuyi is married to Wei Jingyuan from the Wei family? The Huang family has even less control over her."

"The Huang family can't control her, but there's no guarantee that the Huang family will do something bad behind her back." As neighbors for more than ten years, Aunt Hehua still understands the Huang family.

"Okay, I won't stop you if you want to go out and listen, but you must wear an extra piece of clothing so you don't catch a cold." Huang Ziteng didn't persuade her anymore. She knew that her mother-in-law sympathized with Tao Qiuyi's situation and always wanted to help.

She also sympathized, but she was more rational than her mother-in-law.

"Don't worry, don't worry, Mom is in good health." Aunt Hehua said as she went out to eavesdrop.

Huang Ziteng sighed, turned around and picked up the cup. The water in the cup was still hot. She held the cup with both hands and blew gently a few times, took a sip of water, blew again, and took another sip.

After drinking a glass of water, Huang Ziteng was about to go back to the house to see her son when she saw her mother-in-law coming back angrily.

"Mom, what's wrong?" Huang Ziteng walked back to the cabinet to pour hot water.

"I said that there is no good person in the Huang family. The whole family is black-hearted and evil-minded. They are really evil." Aunt Hehua cursed angrily.

"Mom, mom, stop scolding me and drink some hot water to warm yourself up." Huang Ziteng handed the cup to her mother-in-law. She watched her warm her hands with the cup before asking, "Tell me, what did you hear?"

Every time the mother-in-law heard that the Huang family bullied Qiu Yi, she would get angry. The angrier she got, the more she would go to eavesdrop on the Huang family. Huang Ziteng had gotten used to it.

Aunt Hehua said, "I heard Wang Chunjuan and the woman from the Zhang family, the only woman who gave birth to a fool, arguing. The woman from the Zhang family wanted Wang Chunjuan to marry her daughter to her foolish son. Wang Chunjuan said that they had originally planned to marry Qiu Yi, and asked the woman from the Zhang family to go find Qiu Yi."

Huang Ziteng asked hurriedly, "What did the Zhang family woman say? She's not really going to look for Qiu Yi, is she?"
