"Mom, I'm going to look for my third uncle." Xu Ying parked the car and ran out.

She went directly to the Huo family and looked for Grandma Huo, but when she asked her, she found out that Huo Chen was not at home.

Grandma Huo seemed to have long been accustomed to Huo Chen being away from home often, and was not worried at all.

Looking at Xu Ying looking for her grandson, her face was full of smiles.

"Grandma Huo, do you know where Huo Chen is?" Xu Ying asked.

Grandma Huo thought for a moment and said, "He probably went to the Wu family. He gets along well with that kid and often goes to the Wu family. What do you want to see him about? If it's nothing important, he will probably be back tomorrow."

Grandma Huo actually knew what her grandson was doing, she even knew that he was going to the black market.

Otherwise, it would not be so easy to build a house.

But her grandson was capable, so he didn't let her ask any more questions about this matter, and she didn't ask any more questions either.

Xu Ying nodded, thinking of Zhang Lancao, she must know something.

After Xu Ying left the Huo family, she went to find Zhang Lancao.

Zhang Lancao lived next door to Xu Ying. When she went to the next door, she was seen by the sharp-eyed Xu mother, who ran over with her.

"My daughter, why are you running back and forth instead of taking a rest after get off work?" Mother Xu asked with curiosity.

Xu Ying didn't know her mother loved gossip so much, so she glanced at her and said, "I have something to ask Sister Lancao."

"Then I'll go with you!" Xu's mother spoke immediately.

Xu Ying glanced at her and said nothing.

Seeing this, Xu's mother smiled and followed Xu Ying to Zhang Lancao's house.

As I walked to the door, I heard a noise in the yard.

All I could hear was the sharp voice of Zhang Lancao's mother-in-law: "Zhang Lancao, you shameless woman, my son has only been gone for a few years and you are marrying again.

Wu Qingsong, tell me the truth, were you together when my son was still alive? "

She had seen that boy before. When her son was alive, he often came to their house. Her son said that he had saved Wu Qingsong once, and the two of them became good friends after a few interactions.

“Have pity on my son, seeing that man has no parents, he treats him like a brother.

She never thought that after he died, people would help her take care of her wife and family."

"Mom, didn't you promise me that you would agree to remarry?" Zhang Lancao's timid voice sounded.

"Wow, it's so lively, Lancao, my daughter wants to talk to you about something." Mother Xu couldn't help but speak out.

Finish your words quickly and go back, your daughter is already tired after a whole day.

"What's the matter?" Granny Zhang was full of suspicion. Could it be that this woman was trying to curry favor with the captain's family and remarry?

Xu's mother and Zhang Lancao are neighbors and they have a good relationship.

"Lancao, come here, my daughter wants to talk to you about something!" Mother Xu waved at her.

Zhang Lancao then walked over quickly, and Xu Ying saw her coming over and couldn't help asking, "Do you know where Wu Qingsong has been these days?

A group of people were arrested in this county today, and they were said to be involved in smuggling. "

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Lancao's face turned pale and her figure was shaky: "No, no, nothing will happen to him."

Zhang Lancao's expression clearly showed that she knew what Wu Qingsong and the others were going to do.

Xu Ying suddenly became anxious and nervously held Zhang Lancao's hand: "Are they also involved in this smuggling?"

Zhang Lancao felt pain from her grip, she groaned, frowning, "Wu Qingsong told me that if this deal goes through, he can marry me.

I didn't expect anything would happen to him." Zhang Lancao was so anxious that she was running around in circles.

If Wu Qingsong was really arrested, not to mention marrying her, she might even be implicated.

The more Zhang Lancao thought about it, the more embarrassed she became. She looked at Xu Ying and said, "If you see Wu Qingsong, tell him that I want to break up with him.

We are not compatible at all, so let him give up on this idea."

"Sister Lancao, I'm just guessing about this matter. I didn't see them being arrested. Do you still want to break up with Wu Qingsong?" Xu Ying looked at her with a little disbelief.

On weekdays, Sister Lancao gave her the impression of being honest and kind.

She had heard from her mother before that Zhang Lancao was a poor woman. Her husband died early, and it was not easy for her to raise two sons alone.

But later her mother said that Zhang Lancao seemed to have a younger brother who had always been taking care of her.

It must be Wu Qingsong. He risked his life to earn money to support her and her children. Now Wu Qingsong's life or death is uncertain, and Zhang Lancao actually wants to get rid of the relationship directly. Isn't it too cruel?

Zhang Lancao looked embarrassed, she looked at Xu Ying and said: "I am different from you, I have a child, if I don't care, my child can't be in trouble.

If something really happens to these two people, I advise you to break up as soon as possible. You can't let your wonderful life be ruined."

Xu Ying shook her head, glanced at Zhang Lancao and left.

Mother Xu was dumbfounded. Her heart was still pounding when she returned home. Fortunately, her daughter was not with Huo Chen, otherwise smuggling would be a big deal and would affect her husband and son's work.

"Daughter, how do you know that Huo Chen is involved in smuggling?" Xu's mother looked nervous. Thinking of how Huo Chen had helped her daughter sell wolf meat before, her heart skipped a beat.

I hope that boy won’t report that her daughter was involved as well.

"My daughter, nothing will happen to our family, right? That kid won't report you for selling wolf meat with her!" Mother Xu's face was full of worry.

Xu Ying shook her head: "Mom, don't talk nonsense. Huo Chen was not arrested at all. I just guessed that he might have smuggled. You can't talk nonsense without evidence."

After being seriously lectured by her daughter, Xu's mother realized that Huo Chen had not been arrested. If he had not been arrested, that meant he definitely had not participated in the smuggling.

Even Xu's mother, who had brainwashed herself, didn't believe this.

"Mom, I'm going to go see my third uncle. Our food factory needs a salesperson recently. I think my third uncle is suitable. I'll go talk to him." Xu Ying said.

Father Xu just walked into the room and smiled when he heard this: "Your uncle is good at speaking, so he is perfect for sales."

Xu Ying also smiled. It was because of this that she recommended her third uncle to do this. If he did well, it would definitely not be bad to work as a salesperson in a textile factory.

"Yeah, Dad, I'm going."

Father Xu nodded and told her to go early and come back early.

When Xu Ying went out, she saw Zhang Lancao. She was lowering her head and being scolded by her mother-in-law. She didn't say a word and didn't dare to resist.

"Mom, I understand."

"Hmph, you'd better behave yourself." When Granny Zhang walked in front of Xu Ying, she squinted at her with a threatening look, "Xu Ying, Lancao has a child.

Even if your father is the captain, he has no say in our family affairs."

Xu Ying glanced at her indifferently, then turned and walked towards Uncle Xu's house.

When Granny Zhang saw this, she was so angry that she trembled all over and cursed inwardly: "You have no manners."

Xu Ying ran to Uncle Xu's house.

At this moment, Uncle Xu was wearing an apron and holding a spatula in his hand, busy cooking in the kitchen.

Aunt Xu was watching Guxing write in the yard.

Now that Aunt Xu has a job and earns a salary, Uncle Xu also knows how to help out at home, so he sends his two daughters to school.
