After being pushed into the water, rumors spread like wildfire. Her cousin, arguing and making a scene, refused to marry the husband from her past life, only because he saved Shen Jintao when she f...
Chapter 283: Xiao Wu Blooms (Please Ask for Gold Tickets)
After waiting for about half an hour, the group finally saw Xu Hongxing with his child.
Only after seeing his cousins did Xu Hongxing feel relieved, and the tension on his face disappeared.
Shen Jintao looked at her curiously, "Cousin, did something happen on the train?"
"It wasn't a big deal, I just encountered a pickpocket. It was quite dangerous for me to be alone with my child. Fortunately, the comrades on the train were very nice."
Xu Hongxing simply explained the situation. She was rich now, so of course she had to live in a sleeper car with her child. But even in the sleeper car, she couldn't stay there all the time, as she always had to solve the problems of eating, drinking, defecating and urinating.
Xiaohua had a stomachache, so she took the child to the train toilet. She had a lot of money on her. After all, she couldn't come to disturb her aunt's family without any money and ask them to pay for everything, so Zhang Qin gave her a lot before leaving.
After all, she has been helping out in the milk tea shop for so long, so this is what she deserves.
She must carry so much money with her. After all, the people in the carriage are all strangers from all over the world. What if someone really has evil intentions towards her, then wouldn’t her money be gone?
Where can I find someone after I get off the train?
So she left the carriage carrying her bag, and when she was returning to the carriage with Xiaohua, she ran into a pickpocket.
Perhaps it’s because the New Year is coming soon, and these people with nothing to do have started thinking of ways to make money.
The atmosphere in the past two years has been really bad, because a large number of educated youth returned to the city but did not find jobs, so there are many unemployed vagrants on the streets. This pickpocket was a returned educated youth. After he was taken to the public security bureau, it was discovered that this was not his first offense.
"Luckily, a comrade came to help. Otherwise, I would not have dared to confront that man head-on with Xiaohua. If he had snatched the money and ran away, I would not have been able to catch up with him."
Xu Hongxing still felt a little scared after telling his experience.
"Fortunately, nothing happened!" Chen Jintao and others breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
At this moment, Xu Hongxing's eyes lit up and he looked at a handsome man and said, "Comrade, are you getting off here too?"
The other party also saw Xu Hongxing and scratched his head a little embarrassedly. "Yes, my home is here. I just completed the procedures for returning to the city. I came back to celebrate the New Year."
Xu Hongxing was quite happy when he heard this, "That's really a coincidence!"
The man looked to be in his thirties, and he would blush from time to time when talking to people, which was quite interesting.
After all, it was just a chance encounter, so Xu Hongxing, Shen Jintao and others thanked the man and then went their separate ways.
Although there were quite a few people today, they could still fit in if they squeezed together, and Xiao Wu took everyone back at once.
On the way back, Chen Jintao was still talking to Xu Hongxing, "My cousin and his family have each bought a yard and live together. You can just live with my mom, they have a lot of empty rooms. I have almost finished the things I have on hand, but there are still some finishing touches. When I am done, I will take you out to play."
Xu Hongxing had no objection. Her brothers and sisters all had their own families, and she also knew that they could not afford a house that was too big, and it would not be appropriate for her to live there with Xiaohua.
There was nothing wrong with living in her aunt and uncle's house. Besides, she had originally wanted to come and play with Chen Jintao, so naturally she wanted to live closer to her. However, she still wanted to go and see the Xu brothers.
"I only brought some local specialties with me this time. Nothing else. Can I stop at the store later to buy some things? After we get there, I also want to go and see the house that my eldest brother and his family bought."
Chen Jintao nodded. This is how society works. Although they are the closest brothers and sisters, it does look better if you bring something with you when you visit. It doesn’t matter how valuable the item is. This is a very nice thought.
It was impossible for her to help Xu Hongxing prepare these things. If Xu Hongxing was a good-for-nothing and penniless person, it would be fine for her to arrange them. But her cousin was obviously not like that. She already had the aura of a strong woman. If she offered to help arrange the gifts, it would seem disrespectful to her.
When the car stopped in front of the department store, Shen Jidong got out of the car and took Xiaohua's hand very naturally, "Xiaohua, how about going shopping in the mall with your little cousin?"
Xiaohua nodded. She did not become introverted because of her parents' divorce. This was something that surprised everyone, but also made everyone happy.
It seems that Xu Hongxing has taken good care of his daughter's emotions after the divorce. Xiaohua is still cute, sunny and confident. This is also because she has lived with her grandparents for a long time and has been cared for by her brothers and sisters. Everyone in the family treats her as a baby. If she lived in Lao Hu's house, the situation might be completely opposite.
Everyone else got off the bus and walked into the department store.
Chen Jintao comes here often and is very familiar with it. There is nothing much to see, and she mainly comes here to accompany other people.
Xiao Wu also walked to a daily chemical counter with a red face and asked for some vanishing cream and a set of new skin care products.
Huo Beichuan looked in Xiao Wu's direction several times, and Chen Jintao also noticed something.
"Is Xiao Wu dating someone?"
“I think so!”
Xiao Wu has been following Huo Beichuan for a long time, but he has never seen Xiao Wu like this before. It is simply unbearable to watch.
As soon as Xiao Wu turned around, he met the teasing gazes of Huo Beichuan and Shen Jintao, and his face turned red all of a sudden.
"That... that... I bought it for my sister..."
Huo Beichuan and Shen Jintao didn't believe this weak explanation at all, but they were still happy for this boy.
"Remember to submit your love report, I'll approve it!"
Huo Beichuan only said one sentence before his eyes fell on an imported lipstick. Before in the army, he heard the sisters-in-law talking about a batch of imported lipsticks in the department store. Everyone thought they were very beautiful, but the price was a little too expensive, so some were reluctant to buy them.
That lipstick costs thirty yuan, which is ridiculously expensive. Who can afford it unless they are extremely rich?
"Comrade, please help me take care of this trouble!"
Huo Beichuan pointed at the lipstick. He knew that his wife had no shortage of these. Ever since he and Lowe became partners, Lowe always found ways to send his wife some foreign skin care products and lipsticks. His wife couldn't even use them all, but this didn't stop him from wanting to buy them for his wife.
emmm……
He would never admit that he didn't want to be outdone by a foreign yellow-haired guy. He knew how to love his own wife, and that Lowe was so annoying!
Someone accidentally got jealous...
