Chapter 209 Ding Dahu Picks Up His Daughter
Ding Dahu listened to Xie Chunfang finish speaking with a frown.
She said angrily, "Since it's at the clinic, why didn't you just go and pick it up?"
Xie Chunfang had her reasons: "Dahu, husband, you know Xiaomei's temper. You two are exactly the same, stubborn to the core, neither of you willing to back down. Actually, as her father, wouldn't it be better if you took care of her feelings as a girl and went to get it back for her?"
"I'm not going! Just thinking about her and that rascal Tuwazi being all lovey-dovey makes me angry!"
Xie Chunfang observed that Ding Dahu was in a good mood today, and he hadn't gotten angry after three sentences, so he should be able to listen to what she had to say.
So she tentatively said, "Honey, it's understandable that Xiao Meizi likes Tuwazi."
"What?"
Ding Dahu almost exploded.
Xie Chunfang rushed over and stroked his chest with her hands:
"My dear husband, please calm down and let me finish. We've been together for so many years, can you please listen to my honest thoughts just this once?"
The gentle pleading temporarily calmed Ding Dahu down.
"Speak your mind, or shut up."
Xie Chunfang had been carefully considering her words, believing that they could clear Ding Dahu's blocked mind, and that even being beaten would be worth it.
Once he understands this, at least the family will be harmonious again.
If he's willing to get a beating, at least he won't beat me up anymore if he exposes the truth.
So she pressed her face against Ding Dahu's chest and wrapped her arms around his waist:
"My dear, in my heart, you will always be the most amazing person."
Stop with the useless stuff!
"I'm telling the truth. You don't understand a girl's heart. In Xiao Meizi's heart, her father is the strongest. Xiao Meizi is proud of you!"
"Why!"
Ding Dahu sighed.
My daughter really does admire me.
The phrase I said most often when I was a kid was, "I'll get my dad to beat you up!"
Ding Dahu liked the way that little dog acted like it owned the place.
Xie Chunfang continued, "But when a girl grows up, she'll definitely be interested in boys, otherwise wouldn't that be abnormal? Xiao Meizi is an adult now, you can't let her always follow you around. These days, Tuwazi has been hunting wolves and tigers, and even became a militia company commander. Tell me, isn't that kid pretty capable...?"
Xie Chunfang trembled slightly as she said this.
He was terrified that Ding Dahu would suddenly grab him and throw him to the ground for a beating.
Fortunately, no.
Ding Dahu was in a relatively good mood at the moment.
He just let out a heavy "humph".
Xie Chunfang quickly struck while the iron was hot:
"That country bumpkin is showing off, so it's no wonder our little Meizi is attracted to him. If you don't want her now, you're just pushing her onto that country bumpkin. You have to coax and educate your daughter slowly, and you don't want to push her to the brink. Little Meizi broke up with the country bumpkin because Lu Yao took your captaincy, and she's staying with Xiao Huang. Xiao Huang's house is right in front of ours; she's just homesick."
When Ding Mei mentioned that she missed home, Ding Dahu's eyes welled up with tears.
Although he has a bad temper, he is not without feelings.
Once upon a time, Ding Mei was also the apple of his eye.
Countless times I've looked at my disappointing son and thought to myself, "If only you had half the strength of your sister!"
Now that her son is dead and her daughter can't even come home, she secretly longs to go.
They just can't let go of their pride.
Xie Chunfang said, "If I go to pick her up, Xiao Meizi will definitely think you haven't forgiven her yet. She won't dare to come back. Tuwazi and I have broken up, her father doesn't want her, and she's living near her house and can't come back. Can you imagine how heartbroken she is... If she can't think straight, she might feel like she has nowhere to go..."
"Fuck you! Can't you even say something auspicious during the New Year? Fine, I'm going to the clinic!"
Ding Dahu pushed Xie Chunfang aside and got up to put on his clothes.
Xie Chunfang breathed a long sigh of relief.
Actually, Ding Dahu also wanted to bring his daughter home, and he was waiting for this opportunity to do so.
He had picked up Ding Mei from Lu Yao's house before, but when he saw Ding Mei and Lu Yao lying on the kang (a heated brick bed) being all lovey-dovey, he got angry.
Now that I've heard Ding Mei isn't at Lu Yao's house anymore, but at the clinic, half the awkwardness is gone.
I set off, having already made up my mind.
Actually, Lu Yao is quite capable.
Not only could he fight tigers on the mountain, but most importantly, he was able to subdue that scoundrel Yang Shouye!
This old guy has suppressed me for so many years, I can't beat him no matter how hard I try.
Aside from flattering and obeying him, and enduring it for the time being, there is no other way to surpass him.
Ding Dahu also thought that one day he would surpass Yang Shouye and trample him underfoot so that he would have to call him grandpa.
However, this is only in the realm of imagination.
As it turned out, that country bumpkin was tough from the start and stabbed his son first, leaving him powerless to do anything about it.
Then, right in front of him, he got involved with the county magistrate.
They went straight into the militia company.
He then became the company commander and took control of Yang Shouye.
In retrospect, Yang Shouye seems to be nothing more than Lu Yao's dog.
How did you do that?
If things continue like this, this kid will definitely become a commune director in the future!
Actually... if Xiao Meizi were to marry him, it wouldn't be a disgrace to the Ding family!
Oh dear, what am I thinking?
Youliang hated him the most when he was alive.
这小子当着大伙儿的面揍我，我再把闺女嫁给他，这张老脸还要不要？
Everyone's going to criticize him for his lack of integrity!
No!
Even if this kid becomes emperor, he can't give Ding Mei to him!
Make him so hungry he'll be drooling!
The thought of having a daughter that makes even a country bumpkin envious makes me feel pretty awesome.
Lost in thought, I arrived at the main gate of the brigade headquarters.
The brigade headquarters was open, and some commune members were working inside.
This place was once where I held sway over the world, but unfortunately, it's all gone now.
Excuse me, I'll use the back door; the fewer people I see at this point, the better.
When we arrived at the clinic's front door, we pushed the door open and went inside.
Although the entire Jiapigou brigade has about a hundred households, not many people seek medical treatment.
Back then, people were tough and resilient, and few needed to take medicine when they were sick. A strip of "Analgin" was enough to keep the whole family safe for a year.
Therefore, Huang Yuejuan's clinic is not busy.
At this time, he chatted with Ding Mei.
At this moment, Huang Yuejuan helped Ding Mei to the back room to relieve herself in the slop bucket.
The back door was bolted, but the front door wasn't.
Ding Mei sat on the swill bucket, with Huang Yuejuan beside her.
There's nothing awkward about it since we're all girls.
Huang Yuejuan then brought up Lu Yao again.
They were still subtly trying to find out how far things had progressed between Ding Mei and Lu Yao.
First, a lot of words were used to set the stage, and then the crucial question was asked at the end:
"Little Mei, you were at Tuwazi's house... did he ever want to do 'that' with you...?"
I felt a little embarrassed to ask.
Ding Dahu came in just in time to hear this, and immediately stopped in his tracks.
I didn't dare to breathe, just wanting to hear Ding Mei's answer.
He cared about this even more than Huang Yuejuan did.
Ding Mei was embarrassed and pulled up her pants.
"Sister Yuejuan, why are you asking this?"
Huang Yuejuan quickly came over to support her and helped her tie the waist rope.
"I'm just asking. I'm a doctor, so if you really end up with him, I can tell you some things about this and the precautions you need to take."
Ding Mei's face turned bright red from what she said:
"You even know about this? What, Sister Yuejuan, you're not married and you know this?"
"I'm a medical student, so I learned it in class."
Ding Dahu in the outer room was very anxious.
Thinking to myself, "Stop with the nonsense, Xiao Meizi, hurry up and tell me, did that bastard Lu Yao really cause you any trouble?"
