Ten minutes later, Qiao Qingqing followed Xiaoliu to Sun Zhong's house.
After knocking on the door, I found it was Sun Zhong’s wife holding the child.
Seeing this, Xiaoliu quickly introduced to his sister-in-law: "Sister-in-law, this elder sister is here to sell fish to elder brother, and elder brother said you know."
"I know. Come in." Sun Zhong's wife, Comrade Huang Wenxiu, nodded gently to Qiao Qingqing and made way for her while holding the child.
Qiao Qingqing adjusted the brim of her hat, bent down slightly and said, "Sister-in-law, sorry to bother you."
Seeing how polite she was, Huang Wenxiu's expression softened.
"You're welcome." Huang Wenxiu looked at Xiaoliu and said, "Liuzi, your elder brother is at the old place, go call him."
Xiaoliu let out an "ah", turned around and ran away quickly.
Huang Wenxiu then turned around and called out to Qiao Qingqing: "Comrade, my husband will be back soon. Please sit here and wait."
"Okay, sister-in-law, don't worry about me, just go about your business." Qiao Qingqing sat down directly to save Huang Wenxiu from feeling awkward.
Huang Wenxiu relaxed a little after seeing her sit down, and went into the house carrying the child.
After a while, Huang Wenxiu came out.
She poured a glass of water into an enamel cup and handed it to Qiao Qingqing.
Qiao Qingqing stood up and took it, bowed slightly and thanked him: "Thank you for your trouble, sister-in-law."
She had a good impression of Huang Wenxiu, a woman who was sensible and not feudal and backward in her thinking. She also had a good relationship with Sun Zhong. When her husband encountered difficulties, it was she who supported their family.
Qiao Qingqing admires Huang Wenxiu very much.
In addition, Huang Wenxiu was older than her, and in her previous life she had always called her sister-in-law, and the relationship between them was pretty good - she didn't have any so-called close friends, so Huang Wenxiu was considered a close friend of hers.
"I thought that the friends that A Zhong hangs out with are all rough guys like him. I didn't expect there is a polite and cultured person like you." Huang Wenxiu could tell at a glance that the female comrade in front of her was different from Sun Zhong's previous friends, and she couldn't help but feel a liking for her.
Qiao Qingqing smiled slightly: "Brother Sun is full of chivalry, which is naturally different from small people like us. Judging from the complexion of sister-in-law, she should have recovered well after giving birth, right?"
Who wouldn't like to hear this? The smile on Huang Wenxiu's face became even more charming.
"Sister, you are really good at talking! I heard from Ah Zhong that all the sea bass I ate were sent by you, and I haven't thanked you yet."
"No way! To be honest, I wasn't familiar with Brother Sun at the beginning, let alone my sister-in-law. Otherwise, I wouldn't have charged for any of these sea bass."
Qiao Qingqing had been in the business world for a long time in her previous life, and was familiar with Huang Wenxiu, so naturally she said things that Huang Wenxiu liked to hear, which made Huang Wenxiu very happy.
When Sun Zhong got home, he found that his wife had become "sisters" with her partner, calling her "sister" all the time and being very affectionate with her. Even his baby son was in her arms.
When he came back, his wife scolded him: "Why are you so slow? You made me wait for so long."
Sun Zhong was confused. You know where I came from, so why am I so slow?
But he still explained: "I met an acquaintance on the way and was delayed for two hours."
Huang Wenxiu said, "Okay, then you guys can chat slowly. Sister, stay for lunch!"
As he spoke, he reached out to hold the baby in Qiao Qingqing's arms.
After handing the child over, Qiao Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief and her body was not so stiff anymore.
She had only held Shi Wang in her arms when he was a child. After Shi Wang grew up, she never held another child again. Just now when Huang Wenxiu put the child in her arms, her heart was in her throat.
I just thought that since I had a little baby in my belly, it would be good for me to get used to holding a baby in advance, so I accepted it reluctantly.
Sun Zhong added hot water to her half-empty cup and said with a smile: "Looking at your age, I thought you were already a mother, but the way you held the child just now didn't seem like you had experience."
Hearing this, Qiao Qingqing lowered her head to look at her belly, and her eyes and brows became gentle.
"I didn't have experience before, but in a few months, I will have it."
It was her first time being a kisser, and she didn’t know what it would feel like. She was nervous but also full of anticipation, and she just wanted to save all the good things for this little guy in her belly…
Sun Zhong immediately understood the hidden meaning and congratulated him repeatedly.
Qiao Qingqing said generously: "It's still early, so I just asked my sister-in-law for advice. My sister-in-law taught me a lot."
Through this topic, the two sides became closer.
——Qiao Qingqing did this for a reason.
Sun Zhong asked his wife to entertain her every day, which was a way of showing friendship and trust. Therefore, she also revealed the fact that she was pregnant during the conversation with Huang Wenxiu. This was equivalent to telling Sun Zhong and his wife that I also trust you and regard you as my friends.
Only in this way can the friendship between the two parties be consolidated, and it will be easier to talk to each other when there is something to ask in the future.
Just as Qiao Qingqing expected, after Sun Zhong realized that she had given him trust, he spoke to her more honestly.
"Since the last time we met, I started to keep an eye out for new buyers. Finally, I found one seven days ago. And it's not just one, but three! I heard that two of them are from Xiangcheng, wow!"
Qiao Qingqing couldn't help but smile happily: "Won't it be sold at a good price?"
