The next day.
Huo Jinyan prepared to take Jiang Mengning to the city.
He has a very important meeting in the morning.
It was almost noon, almost as soon as the meeting ended. He and Jiang Mengning had a simple meal and drove away from the military area.
Jiang Mengning did not bring Nian Nian with her this time.
It just so happened that Huo Haowen had a day off today, so he stayed at home to take care of his sister.
The military district is only 60 kilometers away from Qingyuan City.
It takes only one hour to drive there.
Qingyuan City is still very lively. As soon as you enter the city, you can see more people coming and going.
Buildings are lined up in rows on both sides of the street.
There is a constant stream of customers coming and going in the store.
There are also people carrying loads and walking around the streets shouting.
There are shops selling honey cakes, candied haws, small items, and fruits.
After living in the countryside for so many days, Jiang Mengning had almost mistakenly believed that the 1980s were a time of poverty everywhere.
Unexpectedly, the city is quite good.
She also saw dance halls, movie theaters, and trams on the road.
It has the flavor of old Shanghai.
She was particularly happy when she saw the dance hall.
There are many ways to make money there, so it's a good opportunity for her to find a job!
She was so excited that she rolled down the car window. She folded her hands, rested her head on her arms, and lay down to look at the scene outside the window.
At this moment, old memories flashed through my mind like a movie.
It's really amazing.
She is very pretty, and when she went out today, she dressed herself up like a rich girl. She looked like a naive girl, so innocent.
People on the street kept looking into the car, and when they saw the girl's pretty appearance, they were all shocked.
Several photo studios quickly took out their cameras and took a picture, which was incredibly beautiful.
The people all exclaimed, how beautiful and nice it was.
Even the beggars on both sides couldn't help drooling.
Huo Jinyan's face looked a little unhappy.
He had been paying attention to the people outside the car for a long time.
Especially the men, they all stared at Jiang Mengning with wolf-like and tiger-like eyes, and even he felt offended by that look.
On the contrary, there was a certain woman who didn't seem to think there was anything wrong at all.
He couldn't help but remind her, "There are a lot of people and the road is crowded ahead. Be careful not to get scratched by anything outside."
He had finally realized these days that Jiang Mengning treasured her face very much.
As expected, after hearing this, she immediately retracted her head.
Huo Jinyan curled the corners of his lips, looking very satisfied.
They did not go directly to Jiang's house, but stopped at the door of the grocery store.
Huo Jinyan went in and out of the grocery store alone, bought a lot of things and loaded them into the car.
Rice, flour, grain, oil, meat, vegetables, as well as some nutritional supplements such as honey and malted milk.
I bought all sorts of things and the trunk is almost full.
Jiang Mengning couldn't help but admire him!
There was nothing wrong with what the son-in-law did.
When she arrived at the Jiang family, Jiang Mengning originally thought that the Jiang family lived in a big villa or a small Western-style building.
After all, it has always been said that the Jiang family is a capitalist family, so the place where capitalists live can’t be too bad!
But the fact is that the Jiang family now lives in two old and dilapidated rooms that are only 30 square meters in total.
The surrounding environment is also very bad.
Houses are built wall to wall, tin houses are illegally built everywhere, and the entrances and exits are very narrow.
There are a lot of people living in old and dilapidated houses. The population is dense and the space is small. Naturally, the sanitary conditions are very poor.
There are clothes and pants hanging everywhere.
The ground was never dry; it was all wet.
There are even people who take off their pants and pee there naked in broad daylight.
And the place where he urinated happened to be where his neighbor made a fire to cook.
Jiang Mengning covered her mouth and nose and quickly turned away her eyes.
The smell here was so bad that it made her want to vomit.
She was dressed neatly in white, and naturally attracted attention when walking in such a place.
If Huo Jinyan hadn't been with them, those thugs would have come up to cause trouble for Jiang Mengning long ago.
I walked all the way to the deepest part before finally arriving at the Jiang family's house.
It's a really small house, and the outside is full of stuff.
Cooking must be done outside.
A stove made of stones can be easily prepared to make a meal.
Such an environment is really a headache.
"This shameless family said this is my territory, but they still put things here. Do they think I am easy to bully? I asked you to cook, and I asked you to cook shit."
An old woman rushed out from the house next door.
The old woman had a face full of flesh. She came over and kicked over the stove in front of the Jiang family's door with two kicks.
Not satisfied with this, he pulled the Jiang family's clothes that were hung out to dry onto the ground and stomped on them twice.
This arrogant and domineering look makes people angry.
"Don't touch my things, don't touch them."
At the Jiang family's house, a very thin woman ran out, desperately protecting her belongings.
The woman looked very old when she was in her forties or fifties.
She had no strength at all and looked so frail that she was no match for anyone in fighting or quarreling.
In the struggle with the old woman, the old woman clearly had the upper hand.
"Let me go, or I'll beat you."
The old woman raised her hand and was about to hit him.
Huo Jinyan put down what he was holding, and with quick eyes and hands, he grabbed the old woman's hand.
"You dare to try it."
He had a scary expression, and having trained soldiers for years, he was intimidating without even getting angry.
