Qiao Baozhu asked the sisters Wei Fang and Wei Hong to follow her into the house.
She didn't want to bring these two troublesome children into the house. Seeing the two children shivering from the cold, Qiao Baozhu felt very uncomfortable.
Before going to work, Qiao Baozhu would clean the kang hole, but would fill the stove with coal slag mixed with water.
At noon, Wu Meili would ask her eldest son to come and help Qiao Baozhu heat the kang and turn over the coal in the stove. This way, when Qiao Baozhu comes home from get off work, the house won’t be too cold.
Of course, Qiao Baozhu would not order people around for nothing, so she bought two pounds of peach cakes for Wu Meili's children. In this era, peach cakes are precious pastries. Jiang Sen supports the whole family by himself, so Wu Meili would never be willing to buy peach cakes for her children to satisfy their cravings.
The peach cakes bought by Qiao Baozhu not only made Wu Meili's children cheer, but also warmed Wu Meili's heart.
Every day when the children came to Qiao Baozhu's place to heat the kang, Wu Meili would repeatedly remind them to be well behaved and not touch other people's things. You are only allowed to stay in the kitchen and not enter the house. You must go home immediately after heating the kang.
The children are also obedient. They never look around or touch anything in the house, and they always clean the kitchen before leaving.
Qiao Baozhu likes children who have a sense of propriety. She would bring a handful of fruit candies or snacks like dried sweet potatoes, fried soybeans, and boiled peanuts to their children’s school supplies every day.
There was a small note under the snack plate, stating that it was a reward for the children. She also said that this was a secret between her and the children, and not to tell Sister Wu, as she was afraid of Sister Wu's nagging.
The little secrets in Qiao Baozhu's mouth made the children feel curious and made them feel different. When doing things for Qiao Baozhu, he is more careful and has a better sense of propriety.
Wu Meili can't read a single word, but her children are all very polite. In contrast, Bai Hongmei and her daughter, who claimed to be cultured people, raised their two girls in a wrong way.
As soon as Wei Fang entered the room, she felt hot air blowing on her face, and the warm feeling made her shiver all over.
She walked quickly through the kitchen, opened the door and went into the house, put on her shoes and sat on the kang. He pulled the blanket on the edge of the kang and covered himself with it without even saying hello to the owner.
Qiao Baozhu saw that the wool blanket she bought for more than 30 yuan was covering Wei Fang's dirty clothes that looked like ironwork.
I felt a darkness before my eyes and thought to myself that I couldn't keep the wool blanket anymore.
"Why are you two here at my house? Where are your mom and grandma?"
Wei Hong glanced at her sister timidly, and then her attention was drawn to the biscuit barrel on the cupboard.
Wei Fang wrapped herself in a blanket and said pitifully, "My mother was frightened by Wu Meili and had a miscarriage, and my little brother didn't go with her. The doctor said my mother was too weak and needed to be hospitalized. My grandma is with her in the hospital."
Qiao Baozhu frowned as she listened. It seemed that Bai Hongmei intended to let her support the sisters Wei Fang and Wei Hong.
The hospital examined Bai Hongmei and found that the fetus had died a month ago. It’s just that Bai Hongmei disliked the cold outside and thought that she would be fine if she stayed in bed to protect the fetus.
Wu Meili escaped the disaster thanks to the examination report issued by the hospital. But Bai Hongmei was weak and needed treatment, and her mother was reluctant to pay for it.
She ran to Jiang Sen to make a fuss, saying that if Jiang Sen had not sneaked back to the family compound to visit Bai Hongmei, none of this would have happened.
"My Hongmei lives well in a remote corner, but her life is indeed very hard. You feel sorry for her being alone and helpless, so you are willing to lend us a hand. But you should never have kept it secret from your Yasha wife, and now she has made a scene. How are you going to let us live like this in the future..."
Jiang Sen felt guilty towards Bai Hongmei and hated Wu Meili for being rude. It was a trivial matter, but she had to make it known to everyone.
He was misunderstood by his superiors and ridiculed by his comrades at work, and was blamed by his children when he returned home.
Jiang Sen's desire to divorce Wu Meili reached its peak, but for the sake of his children, Jiang Sen could only swallow his anger.
Finally, after Bai's mother's pitiful pleading, Jiang Sen left his ID at the hospital and promised to cover all of Bai Hongmei's medical expenses.
After solving the money problem, Bai's mother immediately asked Wei Fang and Wei Hong to live with Qiao Baozhu.
"My grandma said that my dad entrusted us to Uncle Shen before he died, so Uncle Shen had to support us."
Wei Fang's righteous expression is exactly the same as Bai's mother's.
Qiao Baozhu laughed angrily, put her hands on her hips and looked at the dirty Wei Hong, frowning and saying disdainfully: "Your father entrusted your orphan to Shen Xiao, he is in the capital and not at home, I have no responsibility for you."
"If you want to come here to ask for a bowl of rice, then you should straighten your attitude. Otherwise, go home quickly. Don't even think about drinking a sip of cold water, let alone a meal."
In the past, when Wei Fang came to Qiao Baozhu to ask for things, Qiao Baozhu was always polite. Unexpectedly, Qiao Baozhu seemed like a different person today and didn't give me any face at all.
Qiao Baozhu looked at Wei Fang's surprised and panicked expression and smiled coldly in her heart.
In the past, she was willing to pretend to be virtuous, but that was just for Shen Xiao to see. Shen Xiao gave her his passbook and salary, and asked her to help take care of Wei Yanda's children.
Of course Qiao Baozhu was willing to cooperate since she didn't have to spend her own money and could also gain a good reputation for being kind.
Now that Bai Hongmei's thick skin has been torn off by her, and Shen Xiao is not at home, Qiao Baozhu certainly doesn't want to pretend anymore.
If these two children were as likable as the ones in Wu Meili's family, Qiao Baozhu might be able to let go.
But Qiao Baozhu was too lazy to care about Wei Fang, this dirty and conscienceless little girl.
"You can't just ignore us!"
When Wei Fang saw that Qiao Baozhu didn't want her, she suddenly became anxious.
"My grandma said that you two are in big trouble, and the investigation team is going to arrest you. If you don't want to be arrested by the investigation team, you have to please us and let my mom and my grandma speak well of you."
"You have to feed the two of us now. You have to give us good food and drink, otherwise the investigation team will arrest you."
Wei Fang looked very proud and told Qiao Baozhu what she had overheard in the hospital ward as a threat.
Qiao Baozhu narrowed her eyes and stared at Wei Fang. Her sharp eyes and vicious expression scared Wei Fang so much that she shrank her neck.
Feeling guilty and unwilling, he muttered: "My grandma told my mom that, not me. What's the point of glaring at me?"
Qiao Baozhu sneered coldly: "Oh, so this is what your family is planning."
Wei Fang's threat actually reminded Qiao Baozhu.
If Bai Hongmei wants to take advantage of someone's misfortune, then she can also use Bai Hongmei to establish her own character.
"Chen Xiao and I are husband and wife, and his responsibilities are my responsibilities. There's no one to take care of you two now, so just live in my house."
Wei Hong looked at Qiao Baozhu in surprise and shouted at her sister in disbelief: "That's great, sister. We can stay."
Wei Fang was secretly happy and stared at Qiao Baozhu with a smug look on his face and a disdainful smile.
She knew that Qiao Baozhu didn't dare to drive them away.
Humph, her grandma is so smart!
