Bringing Good Luck to your Husband in the ’70s

Chapter 67 : Business Next Door

When Su Yue made the cake, she made a very small extra cake and divided it into three parts. One part was reserved for Han Aiguo to taste, and the other two were prepared to be sent to the children of Ma Cuiyun’s family and Xu Can’s family.

  She put the cake on a plate and took it to Ma Cuiyun’s house upstairs. Unexpectedly, as soon as she reached the stairs, she saw Feng Zitao from Fang Xiaoli’s family squatting on the ground and playing.

  Su Yue subconsciously lowered her head and looked at her feet, fearing that there would be any marbles or the like on the ground and she would slip.

  Feng Zitao also saw Su Yue, and saw the cream cake in her hand with keen eyes. The sweet fragrance emanating from the air made him to sniff, and he immediately smelled that this thing was what he had been smelling recently.

  He immediately put down the toys in his hands and ran to Su Yue. He raised his head and asked her, “Hey, what’s that in your hand? Give me some to eat!”

  The child didn’t even know how to call aunt, and he looked like a mannerless kid. Su Yue was unhappy with his high-spirited look and was not going to talk to him. After making sure that her feet were safe, she went upstairs without looking back.

  Feng Zitao saw that Su Yue ignored him and was so angry that he rushed forward and grabbed Su Yue’s pants to prevent her from leaving. Su Yue was on the steps and almost staggered by him. If she hadn’t been holding on to the handrail, she would have fallen.

  Su Yue was really angry now. She grabbed his wrist and shook his hand away. She frowned and shouted: “If you do this again, I will beat you! Not only would I beat you but I will also call your Dad ! Let’s see if your dad doesn’t spread your a*s to beat!”

  Feng Zitao has been beaten by his dad recently. Now when he heard that his dad would spank him, he felt scared and didn’t dare to go up and drag Su Yue, but was still reluctant. he frowned and asked, “I asked you what that was, why didn’t you answer me?”

  Su Yue hated such naughty children the most, and said impatiently, “What I do is none of your business! I won’t give it to you anyway.”

  Feng Zitao said angrily: “Why don’t you give it to me! If you don’t give it to me, I’ll ask my grandpa to shoot you!”

  ” Then just ask your grandpa to come. I’ll wait.” Su Yue rolled her eyes after saying that.

Feeling that it was useless for an adult to argue with a naughty child, she left the child behind and quickly went upstairs, entered Ma Cuiyun’s house, and closed the door.

  Feng Zitao usually got what he wanted. This was the first time he saw Su Yue being so disrespectful. His face turned red with anger and he slapped Ma Cuiyun’s door with both hands.

      When his hands got tired, he kicked the door with his feet. There was a loud bang, “Open the door quickly! Come out! Come out quickly!”

  Ma Cuiyun was at home with her two children. Not knowing why, she frowned and asked Su Yue: “What’s wrong, girl? What is that boy doing outside?”

  Su Yue gave the cake in her hand to Dani and Xiao Taozi, holding her breath and said: “I made some cream cakes for the two children to eat, but who knew that the boy from Fang Xiaoli’s family saw it and kept asking for it rudely.  I didn’t want to fight with a child like him, so I quickly entered your house and closed the door. Unexpectedly, the child was reluctant and even slapped the door.”

  Ma Cuiyun became angry when she heard this, ” Why is this guy such a bear! My door will be damaged by him, I have to teach him a lesson. “

  With that said, Ma Cuiyun went to bring a laundry mallet to beat him.

  Su Yue quickly stopped her, “You are an adult if you hit someone else’s child. No matter how reasonable you are, it becomes irrational. At that time, it will be another verbal lawsuit. The key is that you and Fang Xiaoli are enemies. Don’t make yourself angry to death, forget it and let him do it. “

  Ma Cuiyun calmed down after being persuaded by Su Yue. Thinking of Fang Xiaoli’s unreasonable temper, she put down the mallet in her hand angrily, waved her hand and said, “I’ll suffer a loss today, let him kick the door, ignore him. “

    Su Yue also said: “Just let him go. If no one cares about him, he will be get bored and  will leave naturally.”

  Sure enough, after kicking for several minutes and no one paid attention to him, Feng Zitao lost his energy, turned around and went home angrily to find someone to complain.

  His mother worked in the supply and marketing cooperative during the day, and no one took care of him, so she took his grandma to take care of him. He buried his head in his grandma’s arms and said angrily: “Grandma, that woman next door is making delicious food and won’t let me eat it! Go get it for me! “

  Feng Junwei’s mother, Mrs. Feng, although not very educated, is a reasonable old lady. She immediately frowned and reprimanded him: “The things made by others belong to others, why should they give it to you? Why do you want it? “

  Feng Zitao didn’t expect his grandma’s answer to be like this. After being stunned for a few seconds, he gave his grandma a hard push, causing her to stagger and almost fall. However, he acted as if he hadn’t seen it and stomped on Pointing at Old Mrs. Feng, he said angrily: “You are a big bad guy, old witch, you are not my grandma, I will tell my mother to drive you away!”

Mrs. Feng was so angry that her hands were shaking, “You, you are so spoiled by your grandparents! look at you like this so unscrupulous! “

  It’s a pity that Feng Zitao ignored her and ran into the room to sulk alone. He waited until his mother came back to finally find someone to support him. He threw himself into Fang Xiaoli’s arms and complained aggrievedly, “Mom, that bad woman next door did this. She didn’t give me any delicious food, but only gave it to the people upstairs. When I asked her to ask for it, she scolded me. Mom, go get it for me, I want to eat! “

Mrs. Feng said angrily: “Xiao Li, look at what Xiao Tao is like. Why should he eat the food made by others? I told him but he didn’t listen at all. As a mother, you should teach him a lesson and not ask for anything from other people’s homes. “

  Fang Xiaoli doesn’t want others to say something bad about her son, even if this person is her mother-in-law. She has always disliked this mother-in-law and doesn’t want to live with her at all, but this time Feng Junwei insisted on taking the child back from her parents’ house, and also brought his mother came to take care of the child, she was already very angry. Now her mother-in-law was full of dissatisfaction with her son as soon as she came. What a grandma like this!

  Fang Xiaoli couldn’t hold back her anger. She retorted: “Mom, what you said is wrong. Xiao Tao is only five years old. What do children know? Of course they want to eat when they see something to eat, but the woman next door deliberately made delicious food, but she is so cruel that she refused to feed a child after they saw it. Are there any neighbors in the neighborhood who do this? “

  Old Mrs. Feng was so angry that she didn’t know what to say. She had never seen such a crooked mouth.

  The rational person felt more and more angry that the old man should not have agreed to the marriage with Fang Xiaoli’s parents. Look what kind of wife he got back. People said that you should marry a virtuous wife. If you marry an unreasonable person, your life will be better.

  Old Mrs. Feng didn’t want to be laughed at by others if she quarreled with her daughter-in-law, so she had to swallow her anger and ignore the matter.

  When Feng Junwei came back in the evening, Fang Xiaoli, who couldn’t stand her son’s troubles, discussed with him: “Junwei, your son wants to eat the food cooked next door, can you go and get some back?”

  Feng Junwei frowned upon hearing this. He reprimanded: “If You want it then buy it. Why should you want other people’s things? If you let him do whatever he wants! The child would be spoiled like this!”

  Fang Xiaoli choked at his words and really wanted to talk to him. She wanted to quarrel, but the two of them had been quarreling recently. He hadn’t touched her for several days. If the quarrel continued, his heart would not be with her. She was not a brainless person. She knew when to give in.

She had to give in, so she had to restrain her temper and said in a good voice: “I also want to buy it for Xiao Tao, but it is not sold elsewhere. It is something made by Su Yue next door. Where can I buy it? The food made by her is really good. It smells so good that even an adult like me wants to eat it, not to mention that Xiao Tao is only five years old. How can a child hold it back? Just go and ask for some.”

  Feng Junwei still refused, “If someone makes delicious food, we will go and ask for it, are you shameless? I won’t go.”

  Fang Xiaoli held his arm and said with a little grievance: “But Su Yue gave it to Commander Sun’s family upstairs and also to Commander Yu’s family, we are still her neighbor, but she never thought of giving anything to our family. It happens every time. Even if the child sees it, she has the heart not to give it to him.”

  Feng Junwei snorted, “As a neighbor like you, I will do the same if I were her.”

  ”You!” Fang Xiaoli was furious at him, “Feng Junwei, you are going too far!”

  Feng Junwei ignored her and turned around to read the newspaper.

  Seeing that no one was willing to give him food, Feng Zitao cried and used his old tricks again, lying on the ground and rolling around, “I want to eat! I want to eat! Help me get it!” “

  He used to use this trick whenever he didn’t get what he wanted at his grandma and grandpa’s house. Usually, his grandma and grandpa would agree to his request as long as he was like this.

  But his father didn’t tolerate him. Feng Junwei slammed the newspaper in his hand, went up and pulled the boy up, took off his pants, and spanked him hard on the buttocks.

Within two spans, the buttocks were red and swollen. Feng Zitao also changed from fake crying to real crying, crying and struggling at the same time, but no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn’t get out of his father’s hand.

  Fang Xiaoli was heartbroken and came up to stop Feng Junwei, but was accidentally swept away by Feng Junwei’s slap. A slap hit her face, leaving a sharp slap mark on her face.

  Fang Xiaoli couldn’t believe it, covering her face and staring at him, “Feng Junwei, you bastard, how dare you hit me! I’ll fight you!”

  As she said that, she rushed up and started tearing Feng Junwei apart.

  For a while, the Feng family was in a state of turmoil again.

  Feng Junwei had a splitting headache. He finally subdued Fang Xiaoli, who was going crazy. He himself was so tired that he wanted to sigh. He felt that he really didn’t want to live this day. Training in the army during the day is extremely tiring, and at night it was the same . He can’t calm down even after he get home, so he might as well sleep in the army.

  But Fang Xiaoli was still sobbing and scolding: “Feng Junwei, you are a murderer. Your son just wants to eat. As for you, you beat your children and your wife. You can’t even let your children eat, what use do you have! I was blinded by lard when I married you.”

  Feng Zitao was also wailing on the side, shouting that he wanted to go back to his grandma and grandpa’s house.

  Feng Junwei’s ears were buzzing from the quarrel between the mother and the son. Old Mrs. Feng also felt that her brain was going to explode.

     She felt that it was not possible to go on like this, so she said to Feng Junwei: “Junwei, this is not going to work. If they keep screaming like this, People will hear it and they can’t sleep, you go to the people next door and spend money to buy some. You can’t ask for other people’s things in vain. Buy some for Xiaotao to eat and let him calm down.”

  Feng Junwei also feels that his house can’t be so noisy all the time. He thought for a moment, wiped his face helplessly, stood up and walked out without saying a word, and knocked on Han Aiguo’s door.

  Han Aiguo opened the door and saw him. He was surprised for a moment and asked, “Company Commander, what’s going on?”

  Feng Junwei was a little embarrassed to speak, but he still said it bravely: “Did sister-in-law cook anything delicious at home recently? ? It’s very fragrant. My kid was making a fuss at home and wanted to eat it, so I thought I’d buy some from your house and let him calm down at home.”

  Only then did Han Aiguo realize why there was so much commotion next door. It turned out to be for food again.

  Su Yue also heard this and came out of the room and said apologetically to Feng Junwei: “Captain Feng, that is the cream cake I made for a friend. I have already given it to someone else. There was a little leftover leftover when I made it, but I ate it all. It’s over, otherwise I would have gave you some right now.”

  Feng Junwei didn’t know what this cream cake was, but at this time, the room was filled with the sweet fragrance left by making cream cakes. Even a grown man like him felt like eating it , no wonder the kid at home is always clamoring for it.

  We immediately discussed it and said, “Sister-in-law, the child at home is ignorant and clamoring for food. Can you help me make one for my family? I will provide you with what you want for this cake. Just tell me.”

  Su Yue hesitated for a moment. Originally, she didn’t want to deal with her neighbor, but now Company Commander Feng came to ask for it in person. If she refused again, she would offend him. Anyway, they were willing to pay for it, so why not agree to it? , this way you can make money while not offending others.

  So Su Yue nodded and agreed, “Okay, Captain Feng, I’ll make one for your family. However, making a cream cake requires a lot of materials, and it costs money and tickets. You see…”

  Feng Junwei said immediately: ” It’s okay, just tell me what you want.”

  Su Yue was not polite, “I will make a smaller one for your family. You can give me two kilograms of food stamps, one kilogram of non-staple food stamps and two yuan. I will give it to you tomorrow. You make one.”

  Feng Junwei was secretly surprised that this thing was so expensive, but the child at home were still fussing, so it’s okay. He immediately took out the food stamps in his pocket and gave Su Yue two kilograms of food stamps and one kilogram of non-staple food stamps in return. There were two dollars, “Then I’ll bother you, sister-in-law.”

  After Feng Junwei left, Su Yue looked at the tickets and money in her hand and she is very happy that she can do business at her doorstep. The most important thing is that she also made money from Fang Xiaoli next door. She don’t know how Fang Xiaoli would react when she found out that the cake was so expensive. She would probably go crazy with heartache.

  Su Yue’s guess was good. After Fang Xiaoli found out that a cake actually cost two kilograms of food stamps, one kilogram of non-staple food stamps and two yuan, she felt that Su Yue was robbing money, and she immediately rushed out to settle the score with Su Yue.

  Feng Junwei stopped her and said with a sullen face: “If you make a fuss now, you can’t expect to eat the delicious food from her. If Feng Zitao makes a fuss again, I won’t care. You can figure it out on your own and ask someone for something to eat.”

  One sentence made Fang Xiaoli stop moving, because she knew that her son would be obsessed with eating the cream cake made next door. If he couldn’t eat it, he would probably make a fuss and her head would hurt.

  Forget it, just tolerate it for once, just think of it as spending money to make your son happy.

  But when she brought the cream cake back from Su Yue’s house the next night, even Fang Xiaoli murmured in her heart: No wonder this thing is so expensive. Look at the workmanship and the smell, you know it costs a lot of good stuff.

  When Feng Zitao saw the cake, he couldn’t help it. He immediately took a spoon and stuffed a large spoonful into his mouth. It was so delicious that he didn’t even bother to say anything. He kept eating and eating, unable to stop one bite after another.

  Seeing that he was about to finish one cake, Feng Junwei quickly gave a piece to Mrs. Feng and another piece to Fang Xiaoli. He couldn’t help but take two bites. After tasting it, he was convinced of Su Yue’s craftsmanship.

  Old Mrs. Feng couldn’t help but sigh: “How come this food is so delicious? I feel it’s delicious even after I have lived so long. No wonder Xiao Tao wants it so much.”

  Feng Junwei nodded, “Originally, I also felt that it was delicious. This thing is too expensive. Now that I have eaten it, I realize that what they charge is not expensive, and it is indeed worth so much money.”

  Fang Xiaoli did not praise the cake, but she couldn’t stop eating it. After finishing one piece, she wanted to eat more, but Feng Zitao didn’t want to share it with others anymore, so he monopolized the rest of the cake.

  Fang Xiaoli licked her lips and had no choice but to hold back her urge to eat another piece.

  Su Yue felt that since making cakes for the them, the neighbor had really stopped, and she never heard the crying of the child again, and her ears were much better.

  But not long after she said this, the sound of a child crying came from next door again. When she heard it, she knew it was Feng Zitao who was crying.

  Su Yue glanced at Han Aiguo and said with a smile: “Husband, let’s guess what the kid next door is crying about again?”

  Han Aiguo put his hand on Su Yue’s belly, which was gradually showing her pregnancy, and stroked it very gently, said lightly: “I don’t know.”

  Su Yue pinched his nose and smiled wickedly, “I know. My sixth sense tells me that the next door will come to give me money again soon.”

  Han Aiguo hummed indifferently, obviously not interested in the people next door. He just continued to look at her belly tenderly. He also lifted up her clothes and kissed her belly again and again. He looked very stupid.

  Su Yue was tickled by his kiss and couldn’t help laughing. Putting what happened next door behind, hse turned to talk about her belly, and muttered in confusion: “Don’t they say that belly will show after four months? Thin people will show belly even later, but why does my belly still look like this?” It’s bulging in less than four months?”

  Han Aiguo didn’t know how big a woman’s belly should be when she was more than three months pregnant, but he saw with his own eyes that her belly grew little by little, but her overall weight hasn’t changed much, and I’m very worried in my heart, “When the child grows in your belly, it robs your nutrition. He is growing, but you are losing weight. You have to eat more.”

  Su Yue has been pregnant, her appetite is very serious, and it hasn’t improved yet. She eats very little every day, so instead of gaining weight, she actually loses weight. She is also very anxious and tries to eat as much as possible, but everything she eats seems to make her lose weight. When it came to her belly, she didn’t have any flesh on her own.

  It can only be said that the child in the belly is very good at robbing nutrients.

  Han Aiguo said: “I’m worried about you being like this now, I’ll write a letter and ask my mother to come and take care of you. My mother has experience and will definitely know what pregnant women like and can eat. She can take care of you better than me.”

  Su Yue thought After thinking about it, she still shook her head, “There are still chickens at home, and the fourth child is still young. What will the fourth child do if mother is not at home? And now it is estimated that the third sister-in-law is about to give birth. If mother does not take care of the confinement child, she will come to take care of me. For a pregnant woman who is only four months old, why should the third child’s family be in trouble?”

  Han Aiguo thought about it and had to give up the idea, thinking that he would wait until Su Yue was about to give birth before bringing his mother.
