The moment she hit the car, Xu Yin had already turned the front of the car to the side.
The one who pushed the man was the son of the family, who cursed him, "Go back to your village! This land doesn't belong to you. The country wants you to stay in the countryside, so you'd better die there."
The woman's age was indistinguishable. She had heard that going to the countryside was a difficult place. She looked very weathered. She was pushed and sat on the ground, where she began to cry loudly: "Mom, are you going to watch me die?"
The alley was small and there were many people watching the fun, so Xu Yin wanted to go home first.
Unexpectedly, the woman suddenly covered her chest, and her already purple lips became even uglier. She began to gasp for breath.
Seeing Xu Yin passing by, he pulled her leg and said, "Save me! Please save me."
Chen Wu said, "She seems to be having a heart attack!"
Her cry startled everyone around her. Together with the people in the alley, they rushed her to the nearest hospital. All the neighbors came, except for her brothers and parents.
"If you want to say that Weifeng did something wrong, then when we were asked to go to the countryside, four of my five sisters went, and the one who didn't was given a job by her in-laws."
"Now that Jiaying has returned to the city, if nothing else, we must at least find her a place to sleep."
"Yeah, look at Jiaying. She and Weifeng are obviously twins, but she looks a dozen years older than him..."
…
Xu Yin and Shen Wu both helped to send the man to the hospital. They were forced to eat a lot of melons along the way, but it was nothing new. Not only was the preference for boys over girls common in this era, it would not be absent even decades later.
It was probably a few years ago when the sisters of the family went to the countryside, leaving only the boy at home. Now when she comes back, the man next door has already married and has four children. There is not enough space for them to live, so they don’t allow the sister to stay.
Shen Wu's stomach was bubbling with hunger, so when they passed by a state-owned restaurant, they simply ate at the state-owned restaurant.
Ordered beef congee, barbecued pork, and crab roe buns.
Shen Wu's saliva was almost flowing out of her eyes. She ate a bun first, which was so hot that she ate it with a sizzling sound.
Xu Yin shook her head helplessly: "It's like a starving ghost reincarnated."
Chen Wu didn't argue with her and buried her head in eating. When she was almost full, she ordered two more steamed baskets of crab roe buns, shrimp rice rolls, beef meatball soup, and pork trotter rice. Xu Yin also ordered a serving of fried beef noodles for Lu Ye, which he was most addicted to.
The lunch boxes for the two of them were not enough, so Chen Wu pawned some food and planned to deliver it later.
Fortunately, she and Xu Yin often ate out in the area, and the other party knew them, so they simply agreed to let her take the bowl and leave.
When going back.
There was still a quarrel next door, and when they spoke quickly, even Shen Wu could hardly understand.
Xu Yin translated beside her: "If Jiaying can move in, she will take the child away!"
"That's what Weifeng said. If Jiaying comes back to live with us, she won't provide for the elderly couple in their old age."
…
She didn't understand what was being said but just listened for fun. Before she could go into the house with her things, Manman, Lu Xuan and Lu Ye came back.
Lu Ye was very curious: "Third sister-in-law, what are you doing outside?"
Chen Wu shook her head: "Let's eat!"
Manman's favorite shrimp rice rolls and pork trotter rice were ordered for Lu Xuan. He was afraid that he would not be full after eating only some buns, as Lu Xuan has a big appetite.
Chen Wu and Xu Yin had already eaten, so naturally they stopped eating.
Chen Wu told Lu Xuan about Manman's schooling, and he was also a little surprised: "I inquired about the requirements for children to go to school. Parents must work locally. I was originally thinking about finding a job here with my driver's license."
"Now that it's resolved, I don't have to go." He didn't want his family to be apart for too long.
Of course, if you have children, you naturally have to pay attention to their education.
Lu Ye laughed: "Lu Xiaoniao, you're in trouble. You have to go to school again!"
Xu Yin slapped him.
Manman quickly swallowed a large shrimp, then looked at Lu Ye: "Uncle, you are the one who is miserable. Don't think I don't know that you didn't go to school and you are worried about being abandoned by your godmother!"
"Grandma Feng in the village has said so."
The words were full of childishness and the eyes were innocent, but the words spoken in this way were even more heartbreaking. Lu Ye felt as if his heart was stabbed several times after he said that.
Everyone at the table couldn't help laughing.
Lu Ye said, "It's different now. I have a job. Your father and you are the only ones without jobs in our family."
As he said this, Lu Ye straightened his back confidently.
"I have a job too! Mom said she'd give me 20 cents for every piece of clothing I sell, and I need to support myself..."
Manman said, looking at her unemployed father, she said reluctantly: "Give my money to Dad."
Lu Xuan was eating, and the corners of his mouth rose uncontrollably.
Okay, this girl was not raised in vain.
*
Chen Wu didn't care about her neighbor's affairs, but she didn't expect that the other party would be interested in her things.
That morning, Chen Wu and Xu Yin had no classes and were tidying up the yard with their children.
The yard is not big. Shen Wu planted a few flowers next to the wall. Lu Xuan also planned a small area for growing vegetables. He turned over the soil and prepared to plant some vegetables. He also turned out two earthworms.
Manman took one and played with it like a rubber band.
Chen Wu saw Mo Mo and moved away from her...
Just as she was walking away from her daughter, the neighbor knocked on the door with a smile and tiptoed towards their yard and called out, "College student."
Chen Wu turned her head and saw a person with a smiling face.
He looked at Xu Yin and realized that she was being too attentive to him for no reason. She was either a traitor or a thief.
Before she could speak, Manman said, "Grandma, my mom and my godmother are both college students. Which college student are you calling?"
There are two college students in the same yard, one is their biological mother and the other is their godmother.
The old man's smile remained unchanged: "Everyone shout, everyone shout."
As he said this, he pushed open the gate.
Chen Wu asked, "What can I do for you?"
The old lady waved her hand: "It's okay, it's okay. I'm just looking around to see what you are busy with."
Chen Wu washed her hands and said, "If you have nothing else to do, I have something to do at school and I'm about to go out. Would you like to come and see me another day?"
Chen Wu was too lazy to beat around the bush with her. In fact, she could vaguely guess why there was a commotion next door every day.
She just came in and ordered everyone to leave.
College students are so rude.
But he really came here for something: "Wait."
Shen Wu looked at her.
The old lady looked embarrassed: "It's okay, but there are some small things."
"I've been paying attention since your family moved in. It's luxurious for two people to live in a big house. Your yard is big, and there's still plenty of room for four adults and one child living here. Look, my little girl is still sick. Can she move in?"
"I heard you have a dormitory at school?"
"I am an old woman and have no other choice. There are so many quarrels in my family. If there is any way, I will not lose face. Please."
As she spoke, she was crying and wanted to kneel down to Shen Wu, muttering: "You are college students, you are all well-educated people..."
