After choosing her favorite red yarn, Shishi handed a candy coupon to the woman who had spoken up for her, saying, "Auntie, this is my chicken. Thank you for speaking up for them. Here's your coupon."
The woman hadn't expected such a genuine reward from just a few words. Although she needed it, she felt she couldn't accept something for nothing.
"Thank you, young lady. Sugar coupons are precious and shouldn't be given away casually. You can keep them for yourself, and I can buy more next month."
Shishi placed it in her hand and pointed to the baby behind her, "She's a friend of mine, it's for a friend's family, it's fine."
The woman's hair was covered in black lines.
The baby on her back was only five months old, so where did she get a friend?
Ugly and Little Master also came over, pinching the little feet and touching the little hands.
As if sensing the call of her friends, the little girl woke up groggily, and the first thing she saw when she opened her eyes was a beauty overload, her eyes lighting up inch by inch.
"Eeya, eeya ya."
He waved his arms and legs, struggling to get down. The little guy was strong and shook his grandmother so much that she was stunned.
The woman was stunned. "You're really friends?"
The little granddaughter doesn't like being touched by anyone except her parents, grandparents, and maternal grandparents; she screams and cries whenever anyone touches her.
She once lamented that as long as her child was awake, human traffickers would never be able to abduct her.
“Yeah, we’re friends, want a hug?” Ugly was the first to reach out.
"Oh dear." (Hugs.) Her outstretched little hands show how determined she is of her goal.
After passing through the hands of four good-looking people, the little girl was so happy that she didn't want to go back to her grandmother's arms and chose to snuggle back into the ugly one's arms.
Two chubby little hands gripped his clothes tightly, not wanting to get down at all.
Long time no see, I miss my brother and sister.
The woman was taken aback by her granddaughter's smile revealing her gums. It seems that she doesn't dislike people outside her family, but rather people who are not good-looking.
All four of them are very good-looking, and she likes them all, let alone the child.
"My dear girl, come here, Grandma will take you to see your mother. Your older brother and sister can't play with you all the time."
"Ah!" (No.) She buried her face in Ugly's arms and refused to communicate with her grandmother.
Woman: ......
It wasn't lunchtime yet, and the waitress at the state-run restaurant was swatting flies. She overheard her mother-in-law saying that her daughter didn't want her grandmother but her older brother, and that she had to come to find her to prove that they knew each other. She laughed.
"Mom, you've forgotten, that brat has been listless ever since she came back from here last time. She kept coming to look for people, and those were the people she was looking for."
“Your granddaughter misses him terribly if she doesn’t see him for a day. Now that she’s seen him, it’s no wonder she doesn’t want to let go.”
The woman took out a small handkerchief and wiped the drool from her little granddaughter's mouth, teasingly saying, "So, little girl, you think Grandma is ugly? Hehe, you naughty girl."
"Yuehong, I came out to buy brown sugar, but I didn't bring any extra money. Do you have any? A young girl gave me a sugar coupon for one pound. I can't just take it for free. If you have money, take it out and exchange it. I'll pay you back later."
Deng Yuehong, a waitress, was also worried when she heard about the supply and marketing cooperative giving away sugar coupons. "Mom, I didn't bring any money with me. Why don't you go find Brother Hui? I'll leave you here for now."
She has meals at work and doesn't need to take a bus, so she's not used to carrying money or tickets.
The photo gallery isn't far away; it only takes about ten minutes to get there and back.
"Sister, you don't need to pay. Just consider it a gift for Nannan."
One gift wasn't enough, so I asked Xie Lin for a very small, red hair accessory.
"This is for you too."
Nannan has thick hair, but it's not long enough, so when she ties it up, it's a high ponytail.
People who are obsessed with appearances are often vain, and even her high ponytail didn't stop her from clinging to her hair accessory.
Both Deng Yuehong and her daughter-in-law were at a loss for words, neither laughing nor crying.
"Thank you all. How about we have lunch here? We have crispy pork today, it's on me."
It's one thing to be reluctant to eat it yourself, but since it's your daughter's friend who gave her a gift, it's only right to treat her to a meal in return.
"We're going to my aunt's house for dinner, so we can have an extra serving of meat."
Since there was already a meal, Shishi didn't mind having an extra dish: crispy pork, which sounded delicious just from the name.
"Okay, come over in a bit, I'll pack it up and give it to you to take away."
"Then give me a bowl, sell me a bowl, I want to take a bowl back to my parents to eat."
Deng Yuehong smiled and nodded, "Okay."
What a filial child.
After the agreement was reached, the woman was relieved because her child was taken away—or rather, clung to Ugly Ugly's arms and refused to move.
The woman was still a little hesitant, but Deng Yuehong was not worried at all.
"Mom, don't worry. Those people have come several times already, and that man is a soldier. They're all trustworthy."
"Besides, they don't mind that the baby is in the way, so you don't need to worry."
The woman glared at her and said, "You're so good at talking. I only have one precious granddaughter. If I'm not worried about her, why am I worried about you? Go do your work. I'm going back for a bit and will come back to pick up my granddaughter later."
She waved the brown sugar in her hand.
"Okay, Mom, take it easy."
The alley behind the state-run restaurant.
"Zhou Miao, do you not want to live in this compound anymore? How dare you threaten me?"
“Sun Xuexiang, I’m just telling the truth. Where is the threat? Besides, if you do me a small favor, I won’t bring up your matter again. I can live a good life, and you can find a good husband. It’s a win-win situation, isn’t it?”
"A trivial matter? If this is discovered, my future will be ruined. You call this a trivial matter?"
"If you don't tell and I don't tell, who will find out? Sun Xuexiang, if you don't help with such a small thing, then I can't guarantee I'll keep quiet."
"You... Fine, very well, Zhou Miao, you win. But let me tell you, this is the only time I've helped you. If you use this to threaten me again, don't blame me for fighting to the death."
