Jiang Wanwan felt that the man riding the bicycle was becoming more and more tense, and she felt amused.
Then she heard the man reply in a muffled voice, "This opportunity is rare. I'm afraid you'll regret it. But if you don't want to go, then we won't go. I'll support you."
Jiang Wanwan couldn't help but laugh, "Lu Xiao, I just realized that you can also say one thing and mean another."
He must have felt so uncomfortable, but he still forced her to go, even though he clearly didn't want her to go.
"I'm not going anywhere. I'll just be at home making snacks. Aren't we doing well now?"
"After all, it's a secret business, and it's not as comfortable as working. Wanwan, I admit that I don't want you to go, but I..."
"Okay," Jiang Wanwan interrupted him, "It's not like I haven't worked before. I was able to give up my job in the city, so of course I can give up the opportunity to work for you now. Not to mention that I want to go to college after the Spring Festival."
"Lu Xiao, just rest assured, I will never leave you."
Jiang Wanwan's words did not give Lu Xiao much comfort. She was too outstanding, so outstanding that anyone with eyes could see her good side.
Professor Wu's boss invited her to college, and Deputy Director Chen of the textile factory personally invited her to work there. What about the future? Will there be a Principal Zhang or a Factory Director Wang who will see the potential of his daughter-in-law and give her a better opportunity?
Now that his wife can stand by him steadfastly, what about the future?
Is it possible that she's tired of seeing his face? Or perhaps the poverty of rural life has worn away her patience.
Many years later, when you look back at your own mediocrity and poverty, will you regret missing such an opportunity?
Lu Xiao wanted Jiang Wanwan to stay by his side, but he didn't want her to regret choosing him, and he didn't want to selfishly let her accompany him through hard times.
"Wife, please believe me. I will work hard. I can give you what others can give you. Please give me some time." Don't walk too fast. Wait for my steps.
Jiang Wanwan put her arm around his waist and leaned on his back, "Of course I believe you."
Her soft arms were pressed against her waist, and even through the thick cotton coat, she could feel her strength.
Lu Xiao glanced around at the empty area, held the handle with one hand, and held the small hand in his sleeve with his other big hand.
…………………………
In a blink of an eye, it was the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month. The village settled accounts with the members for the last time, which meant that work points could be exchanged for money.
This is the big event that all members are looking forward to. They have worked hard for a year, and in addition to the usual distribution of food and vegetables, this is just for this day.
Jiang Wanwan and his team also stopped working that day and went to the brigade headquarters early.
At this moment, the brigade headquarters was already crowded with people, and almost all the adults and children who could come had arrived.
It seemed like we didn't feel cold at all in the middle of winter. The adults gathered in groups of three or five, talking animatedly, while the children ran around the yard. Some of them even brought firecrackers, which made a noise from time to time, scaring everyone.
After being laughed at and scolded by the adults, he ran away to play somewhere else. A group of children chased him, and when he ran a little further, they started setting off firecrackers.
The atmosphere of the New Year is getting stronger and stronger.
Counting the time, Jiang Wanwan has been here for half a year. She has adapted to the pace of life here and also likes these simple farmers.
A pair of eyes followed her, and when Jiang Wanwan looked over, she saw a girl in her teens.
Jiang Wanwan recognized her. She was Wang Guohua, the daughter of Li Cuifen and Wang Tiezhu. Not far away from her were Wang Tiezhu and his brother Wang Guodong. Li Cuifen was the only one missing.
Wang Sanni noticed her gaze and spoke to her in a low voice.
"Ever since that second hooligans beat up Li Cuifen with such fanfare last time, Li Cuifen seems to have really behaved herself. I haven't heard of her visiting anyone's house for a long time. It's true that raising this daughter of his is not in vain. When the second hooligans beat Li Cuifen, the whole village just watched and no one intervened. But it was her daughter who didn't care and fought with the second hooligans. The second hooligans, a grown man, was scratched several times by this little girl. After returning home, Wang Tiezhu wanted to beat Li Cuifen, but was stopped by her daughter. Li Cuifen has behaved herself recently, probably because she listens to her daughter."
Jiang Wanwan teased the little Qingqing in Wang Sanni's arms, "So it's the same whether you have a boy or a girl. As long as you educate her well, your daughter can also support you. Look at Li Cuifen, she has both a son and a daughter, but why haven't you heard about her son protecting her as a mother?"
Wang Sanni liked to hear this. Ever since the family split up, her sister-in-law believed that she was pregnant with another girl, and now her sister-in-law often bullies her with words and expressions.
Especially in recent times, the couple has been visiting the third brother's wife frequently, and the eldest sister-in-law's sour words are endless.
Fortunately, they have separated, so no matter how much she says sour words, it won't affect them.
With the support of her husband and the ways for her third brother and sister-in-law to help them make money, how could Wang Sanni be afraid of a few sour words?
Look at Li Cuifen’s family again, isn’t it obvious?
"You hit the nail on the head. I heard that Wang Guodong not only didn't protect his mother, but also blamed her just like his father. Ever since his girlfriend broke up, he didn't talk to her for a long time, blaming her for doing something shameful that prevented him from getting married. In fact, I heard that she never liked Wang Guodong in the first place. Wang Guodong's personality is just like Wang Tiezhu's. He only knows how to work hard and never says a word when something happens. Who's daughter would marry a man like that? But no one came to visit him later. I guess it has something to do with his mother, Li Cuifen."
"You reap what you sow. Li Cuifen deserves to suffer the consequences of her evil deeds."
Jiang Wanwan had no sympathy for Li Cuifen. She had never had any contact with Li Cuifen when she first arrived, and that woman had been gossiping about her behind her back.
When she subdued Erhunzi, in order to show his loyalty, Erhunzi told her some of the past events, saying that Li Cuifen had disliked her for a long time, and even that it was Li Cuifen's idea that Erhunzi came to harass her when Lu Xiao was not at home.
Later, Li Cuifen spread rumors about her because the second gangster ignored her and she felt that the second gangster had succeeded.
As the two were talking, Wang Fang came over.
He handed the two big unity notes in his hand to Jiang Wanwan, "My father asked me to bring them to you. Du Jiaming will pay you back."
Including the 60 yuan last time, Du Jiaming has already returned 100 yuan to her.
It seems that his business is pretty good these days, and he was not caught by that combination of one tall, one short, one fat, and one thin that day, otherwise the Red Star Brigade would have been in chaos.
These days, being a hooligan is a serious crime and you may end up being shot if you are not careful.
As expected of the protagonist of this article, he still has a bit of luck.
Jiang Wanwan took the money without hesitation, folded it up and put it in her pocket. Seeing Wang Fang's worried look, she asked, "What's wrong? Has your family found another matchmaker to introduce you to a partner?"
