Although Comrade Xie Ailian was not a sensitive person, she was still angry for several days and would curse at anyone she got the chance to.
Wang Dahai usually let her scold him without saying anything. Qiao Li would occasionally give her some advice, but Wang Zhaozhao was different. She would not only agree with her, but also get angry and scold together.
Often Xie Ailian felt more comfortable scolding her, and she could even turn around and scold her.
Wang Zhaozhao: “……!”
She was convinced.
On Friday, during dinner, Wang Zhaozhao tentatively said, "Grandma, shall we go to the county town tomorrow afternoon? Otherwise, Fourth Uncle will be home so late, and we'll have to go again the day after tomorrow morning. How tiring it will be."
"Who said we have to go to the county town the day after tomorrow?" Xie Ailian asked her indifferently.
Wang Zhaozhao wasn't surprised at all. "Grandma, if we don't go, Fourth Uncle will have to come back. Besides, Fourth Uncle might have already paid someone to fix the collapsed house. How can you be at ease if I don't go and take a look?"
Xie Ailian: “……!”
Gotta go!
"If your fourth uncle doesn't come back, your fourth aunt will have to walk to town..." Xie Ailian looked at Qiao Li.
Like herself and other people in the village, they can still go to work while pregnant. Some even work in the morning and give birth in the afternoon. But her daughter-in-law is different. She is pampered.
The pampered Qiao Li actually didn't think she was that pampered. "Mom, I can walk to town, just take it slow."
Wang Zhaozhao interrupted, "There's a bicycle at the brigade. Can you lend it to me? Can you ask Uncle Xiangdong to help deliver it?"
"That's public property. How can we borrow it like this? We don't need it urgently." Xie Ailian glared at Wang Zhaozhao.
Wang Dahai rarely participated, so he nodded seriously.
Wang Zhaozhao touched her nose. When it came to ideological awareness, her grandparents' generation was really strong. She felt ashamed of herself.
"Then I won't go. I can't help even if I go..."
"How can that be?! If you ask me, Fourth Aunt, you could just live in the county town. You're about to give birth, so you should have gone there earlier anyway. You wouldn't have to go back and forth all this time."
Before Qiao Li finished speaking, Wang Zhaozhao immediately objected, and the more he spoke, the more he felt that her words made sense?
"That way, Fourth Uncle won't have to live in the dormitory anymore, and even Grandma will have to go with him. Then it would be a bit miserable for Grandpa and I to stay at home."
After saying that, he looked at Xie Ailian with a miserable face.
Xie Ailian rolled her eyes at her and said, "Why are you so miserable? You're already such a grown-up, and your grandfather has cooked for you before..."
"It seems so." Wang Zhaozhao nodded reluctantly and took a deep breath. "Then it's settled."
What the hell? What's settled?
Xie Ailian was stunned for a moment, then she reacted and raised her hand to pick up the chopsticks.
Wang Zhaozhao was already prepared and dodged by leaning over. "Grandma, just pack a few sets of clothes. Fourth Aunt will be back home to recuperate after giving birth. If I'm lucky, our joint exam will be brought forward, so maybe I can come back just in time after I finish my exams."
"Your exams are held together for the entire county, and you can even take them a little earlier? You're in for a treat!"
"Hehe, then I don't have to stay in a guesthouse when I go to take the exam. It's a wonderful thought."
"If you can't get good grades, how can you still be beautiful?"
"That's impossible. I've tried so hard."
“…”
Xie Ailian didn't realize that every time she talked about a problem, she would be led astray, and then she would go astray to the extreme.
After dinner, Wang Zhaozhao rushed to clear the table and wash the dishes. Xie Ailian let her do it. It didn't affect her studies in the evening, so she could just digest her food.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Wang Zhaozhao left the space library, went to the toilet and came back, deliberately waiting.
Sure enough, a sleepover started in the inner room.
Xie Ailian complained that she was led astray by Wang Zhaozhao, but Wang Dahai did not comfort her at all.
Xie Ailian was so angry that she wanted to kick him, but she had something important to say, so she just hummed twice.
"Are you really going tomorrow?"
"Didn't you agree to everything?"
"When did I agree? It was that little girl who made the decision. I didn't say anything."
"You didn't object."
“……!”
Xie Ailian kicked him, but it didn't kick him off the bed as expected, it didn't move at all.
Wang Dahai ignored her kicking and said calmly, "Old woman, you are reluctant to leave Hebian Village and our family inheritance. I am even more reluctant than you, but don't forget, not only does the old man have to work, Zhao girl has to study, and there is also the fourth son's wife."
"What happened to the fourth son's wife?" Xie Ailian didn't think much about it.
"You forgot, I'm a high school student. If I hadn't had a child, I would have wanted to take the college entrance examination last year."
"...She will really take the exam now that she has given birth to the child?" Xie Ailian sat up excitedly.
She had actually forgotten about this matter, mainly because the educated youth in the village had left one after another in the past two years, and the educated youth sites were empty.
There are some who have settled down here, and some are involved in the commotion.
"Even if she doesn't take the exam, since she's already living in the county town with the fourth brother, the Qiao family will probably find a way to get her a job even if we don't have the ability." Wang Dahai has been thinking about this recently.
This is really possible.
Xie Ailian was silent.
Then Wang Dahai sighed.
"Old woman, we may not be capable, but at least we shouldn't be a drag. Besides, just like what Zhao said back then, if we go along, we can help look after the children. They can have hot meals when they come back, so it's considered a contribution and it will also make them less worried."
He thought about it over and over again these days and finally figured it out.
Xie Ailian still didn't say anything, feeling very uncomfortable.
Wang Dahai was almost falling asleep when he suddenly heard her groan, "Go! Why not go? That old bitch Zhou Baihua came here to make sarcastic remarks, to laugh at my jokes, to sympathize with me? Pah! I'm going to the city to enjoy life. I'm much more blessed than her!"
"Um."
…
The next morning, the whole family found that Comrade Xie Ailian looked radiant.
Wang Zhaozhao secretly sighed, it had to be her grandfather, the real king.
Whether he is criticizing or persuading people, he is very good at it, especially when persuading Comrade Xie Ailian, it is like a shot of chicken blood.
Go to school happily, study happily, and go home happily.
"Hello, uncle." Zhongniu returned home and found that his uncle from the Qiao family had come. Wang Zhaozhao called him sweetly.
Uncle Qiao must have come to pick up his sister and bring her to town.
When it comes to doting on their daughters, it has to be the Qiao family.
Then, Uncle Qiao not only took Qiao Li to the town, but also took her all the way to the county town.
After looking at the yard bought by Wang Sibing, Uncle Qiao praised it highly, which shows that the Qiao family is particularly satisfied with their son-in-law Wang Sibing.
After just a short ride, Uncle Qiao left. He had to catch the bus back and said he would go to the cannery and leave a message for Wang Sibing so that he wouldn't have to run back to Hebian Village after work.
After seeing Uncle Qiao off, Xie Ailian said to Wang Dahai, "Old man, you're right!"
She now understood everything and had no hesitation at all.
