Chapter 161 Don't date that new female educated youth surnamed Fan.
"Where is Brother Yu Chen? Isn't he here?"
"He went to his parents' house. His mother is about to have a baby boy or girl!"
Yang Guiping's due date is in mid-February. After the Lantern Festival, Tong Jiahui and Grandpa Tong will take leave to go and take care of her. After she gives birth, Tong Jiahui will also take care of her during her postpartum period.
"Oh! Then I won't be able to see Brother Yuchen." The little girl was a little disappointed. For the past two years, this older brother had taken care of her and played with her most of the time.
"You'll see it! We'll go to the beach again in the summer, and we'll take you with us!"
"Really? I heard the sea is right next door, I really want to go see it!" The little girl's eyes were full of longing.
"I keep my word, pinky promise!"
"Okay, pinky promise! Sister Kiki will take me to the beach! Hahaha!"
When Qiqi got back, she told everyone about the Tong family's situation, saying that someone wanted to harm Grandpa Tong, but they only managed to injure the bad guys and were unharmed.
This news still made everyone uneasy, and they wondered who was targeting the Tong family like this. Zhang Yanan told everyone to eat something first and reminded them to be careful of suspicious people.
Because people from other villages also come to the clinic for medical treatment, it's inevitable that strangers will come here. Who knows who is a good person and who is a bad person?
This reminded her of someone: the mute old woman who fed the pigs with Tong Jiahui. Her home was nearby, and she had seen the old woman with Tong Anfu a few times. A woman's intuition told her something was amiss.
If you were to say that the mute old woman wanted to find a man to settle down with, and had taken a liking to Old Master Tong, and was always following him around, it doesn't seem like it, because she never tried to get close to him.
The mute old woman used to raise pigs in the team. They had been in the village for two or three years, but they had never seen her run into Tong Anfu so coincidentally when she went to collect firewood.
She has to wait for the Tong family to return before she can tell Jia Hui or Yu Heng about this!
A few days later, Grandpa Li received the results of the investigation: it turned out that the Japanese devils were the ones who did it!
Through the miraculous recovery of several retired cadres, they investigated all the doctors who had been in contact with them during this period.
This naturally led them to Tong Anfu. He was a well-known traditional Chinese medicine doctor in Yanshi, and since Tong Yuheng was the future granddaughter-in-law of the Li family, it was quite normal for them to think that he was the one who concocted this medicine with such miraculous effects.
The Japanese devils have coveted all the treasures of our ancestors, and over the years they have used despicable means to steal many of our precious artifacts and secret formulas. They want to capture people and get their hands on the formulas—how shameless!
This time, several more Japanese spies were arrested around Old Master Li and his old buddies. Most of them were peripheral staff who had been recruited and corrupted. But among them were also people who had secretly stayed behind by the Japanese back then, and even second and third generations who were still carrying out various espionage activities.
Grandpa Li also discovered that not only had the Japanese started their operation, but his pills had also caught the eye of the opposing faction, who had been eyeing their origin. The Han family had been quite active lately, which explained why Heng'er didn't want to show her face!
Around noon, Tong Yuyao drove the tractor back with everyone. Tong Jiahui had prepared lunch and invited Captain Chen to eat before going back.
She's a married woman now, not a widow, and her father lives at home, so she's not afraid of what others might say. If anyone is spreading rumors, let the police investigate them thoroughly!
But the brigade leader absolutely refused to eat at his house and insisted on leaving. Tong Yuheng had already neatly packed two lunchboxes of meat and vegetables for him to take home and eat!
The team leader didn't want to argue with the mother and daughter, so he hurried home with the money. When he got home, his wife asked him what had happened, explaining that he hadn't even had breakfast that morning.
He said in a few words that Dr. Tong's medical skills were so good that someone coveted the prescription and wanted to kidnap him, but he was beaten and crippled by the Tong sisters and sent to the police station.
He went there to help, and as the captain, he should know about the situation after such a big incident.
"Let me tell you, Xiufen, you better stop thinking about that girl from the Tong family!" the captain earnestly advised his wife.
The brigade leader's second son, Chen Jinsheng, was just twenty years old. His wife had taken a liking to Tong Yuheng, but he ended up dating a soldier. Then she wanted to arrange a marriage for Yuyao and was figuring out when to sound out Tong Jiahui.
"If the eldest isn't good enough, why not the second one? She's seventeen now, and she'll be of marriageable age in another year!"
"No, no! I've seen it for myself today, those girls are really something! Guess what happened when I got there?"
The captain's terrified expression piqued his wife's curiosity, and Wang Xiufen casually asked, "What's wrong?"
"Four or five strong men were all lying on the ground, and one of them was kicked so badly he was paralyzed; it's hard to say whether he'll survive!"
"Oh my god! Are they really that strong?" Wang Xiufen was startled. Those girls loved to fight, but she hadn't provoked them. They were all very sensible.
"Why would I lie to you! It looks like they've gone easy on the villagers. If the young couple had a fight, your son, looking like a coward, would have been beaten to death!" The brigade leader imagined his son being trampled underfoot by the Tong family's daughter—it was too gruesome!
"Oh! That's not suitable. Our second son doesn't have any other problems, except for his sharp tongue. If he marries a girl from the Tong family, wouldn't he beat her eight times a day? Forget it, forget it!"
"Oh, and I should also remind him not to date that new female educated youth surnamed Fan! She's no pushover!"
"I know, that girl is alright looking, but she doesn't look honest at all. Her eyes are always darting around, and she's got a lot of tricks up her sleeve!" In the old woman's eyes, Wang Xiufen wouldn't even glance at that crybaby Fan Zhiqing.
"You know that much! Don't forget to teach your son a lesson!"
"Why am I the only one disciplining him? Aren't you his father? Why don't you discipline him more?"
"Dad, Mom, what are you arguing about again! What have I done wrong that you keep nagging me?" Chen Jinsheng had just returned from outside.
"We're talking about your marriage! You're almost twenty, you should start looking at potential partners!"
"If you're going to meet, then go ahead and meet, but don't fight! Mom, find me someone good-looking, I don't want someone ugly!"
"Good-looking? Does being good-looking put food on the table?" Aunt Xiufen glared at her arrogant second son. "So what if you're good-looking yourself?"
"I'm not very good-looking, that's why I want to find a good-looking wife. Otherwise, if we have a child, all we'll see are our flaws, how can we expect them to be attractive?"
"You're really thinking ahead, even considering what the child will look like. I think you should just learn a trade properly. If you're capable, you'll be able to marry any good girl!" Chen Hongxiang started nagging his son.
