On the way home, Sanni thought about it again and again and decided to tell her uncle and aunt about it.
After all, it’s no use looking for his parents in the city.
What's more, she had a hunch that her grandparents would not like Qi Jinzhou, because what her grandmother wanted most was an obedient child.
Unfortunately, she is not, and neither is Qi Jinzhou.
Chen Chunhua had just finished washing the pile of pots and pans from lunch when she heard such shocking news. She was stunned.
"He, he is willing to come to my house?"
Sanni nodded, and then briefly and quickly explained Qi Jinzhou's family relationships. Chen Chunhua frowned, what was going on?
"This is his father...his mother?...Do you mind?"
Sanni shook her head. "He didn't kill anyone, so it's hard to tell who was right or wrong. I don't think he's irrational, but I still need to find out how he behaves and whether he has any bad habits."
Sanni squatted down to help Chen Chunhua clean the basin, sighing as she did so.
"Aunt, you know it's hard to find a live-in son-in-law, and I finally found a good one. I don't want to miss it because of this.
Besides, my family doesn’t have a son. Although I don’t want to admit it, some families in the village look down on us behind our backs.
A live-in son-in-law is like a son. What the family lacks is someone who can withstand the wind and rain and hold up the roof. His life...is not easy, but since he has survived despite such a difficult situation, then in the future, as long as there are no flash floods or typhoons that cause water to rise, he will be able to get through it."
The pillar of the family is exactly this kind of person. If someone comes to the house casually because the family is poor or they are incapable of doing things, and then becomes lazy and does not do anything, then there is no way to change the current situation of the Ma family, and she does not want them either.
Chen Chunhua understood what she meant, but she really felt a little sorry for the child.
"What about you?"
"Hmm? Me what?"
"Let's not talk about your family, let's talk about you. How do you feel about him?"
Sanni worked hard all year round, and a blush flashed across her not-so-fair face, which was caught by Chen Chunhua in time.
"Do you like it?"
Sanni hesitated for two seconds, then nodded generously.
"He's good-looking, makes a lot of money, and doesn't speak rudely. Who wouldn't like him?"
"That's fine!" Chen Chunhua slapped her thigh and stood up from the small stool. "When your uncle comes back, I'll ask him to ask. If it's okay, you can also inform your parents."
Lin Guoqing was quite happy to hear gossip when he came back, but he felt a little uncomfortable because the subject of the gossip was his niece.
Liang Shengdi couldn't stop laughing. "Look, look, what did I say? You just said I was messing around!
Don't worry all day about whether they're happy to come to your house. If they're attracted to each other, that's it!"
"Grandma, what is a duck recipe?"
Originally, this topic was not intended for children to hear. The boy was sent back to his chicken coop to sleep, but the girl had nowhere to go. Or rather, even if she was sent into her room, she could still secretly open the door and eavesdrop.
Lin Shumei swore to heaven and earth for a long time, saying she would never tell anyone, not even her elder sister! Only then was she allowed to sit on the side and listen openly.
"It's a love story!" Lin Guoqing was speechless.
"What's the difference between a duck and a mandarin duck?" Liang Shengdi said, "Don't worry about the details. Let's just focus on the key points." "Why don't you go tomorrow? Go to the city. Ask Lao Shi. Aren't they all from the steel mill? They'll definitely know, right?"
Lin Guoqing touched his head and said, "Not necessarily. The steel plant is so big! The cafeteria, hospital, school, dormitory and so on combined are almost the size of our entire village. It's not certain that everyone knows everyone else."
And like Chen Chunhua, he was still worried about Qi Jinzhou's parents. He always felt a little uncomfortable. What if a dragon really gave birth to a dragon and a phoenix really gave birth to a phoenix, and the mouse's son went to dig holes?
Liang Shengdi rolled her eyes again when she heard this. "You guys just live a little too peacefully! In our generation, who hasn't killed someone before?"
"ah?!"
"! Mom, what are you talking about!!"
"grandmother……"
Liang Shengdi expressed her confusion at their shock, "Is there something wrong? When your eldest sister was one year old, the Japanese invaders broke into the village and raided it. Everyone hid in the mountains. A Japanese soldier found his way to us, and your father stabbed him several times before he died!"
It’s a pity that not many people saw it at that time, otherwise we might have hung a plaque at the door of our house too!”
Lin Guoqing & Chen Chunhua: ...Is this the same thing?
"Mom, we were still at war at that time, and everyone was trying to survive...there was no other way."
"Then Xiao Qi's father also felt that there was nothing he could do!" Liang Shengdi spread her hands, "It was my father who killed people anyway. Your father and his father both killed people, so didn't Chunhua marry you?"
Chen Chunhua didn't know what was going on in her head at the time, and blurted out an explanation, "I only found out today that my father-in-law killed the Japanese. I didn't know that when I got married."
Lin Guoqing:!!!
"Hiss~Don't join in the fun with mom!" It's really a headache!
Although, since Sanni said she likes him, I have to ask him first. If he really has a problem with his character, I will come back and tell Sanni. I believe that girl can still tell the difference.
Lin Guoqing said that he would go there tomorrow. If the matter could be settled, it would solve a big problem for the Ma family.
Just as the family was chatting at home, the blue truck stopped next to Sanni again.
Sanni looked up at the head that popped out of the car window, her eyes widening.
"Good evening, Comrades San... Si and Liu Ni."
"Are you sending a telegram here?" Sanni replied unhappily, and Qi Jinzhou gave her a greasy smile in return.
"What a coincidence that I'm back. You guys just finished class? Come up. I'll take you home on the way."
Sanni didn't quite believe his coincidence. The man left after lunch, and the provincial capital wasn't far from where they were driving. It was already 9 o'clock, so how could he just happen to pass by now?
Si Ni and Liu Ni followed closely behind San Ni. Liu Ni looked nervous, having some aftereffects, and was genuinely a little scared. Si Ni, on the other hand, glanced from San Ni's face to Qi Jinzhou's, and then back to her sister's face, her eyes sparkling.
There is a problem!
There is definitely a problem!
"Third sister...shall we go up?"
Sanni thought about it and decided not to refuse the ride. Liuni still limped a bit. She hadn't attended night school yesterday, but she said she didn't want to miss out on classes, so she came along anyway. Who knows what time it would be if they really had to walk back.
"Come on, let's get in the car."
After getting in the car, Sanni sat in the innermost seat, closest to Qi Jinzhou. After closing the door, she said politely,
"Thank you, Comrade Qi. I haven't repaid you for your kindness the day before yesterday, so I have to trouble you again today."
"It's okay. You don't have to worry about too many debts." Qi Jinzhou said happily, "I'm the creditor, so I don't mind."
As he said this, he reached out to push the truck's handbrake and squeezed Sanni's hand which was placed aside.
Sanni: !!! He is not a good person after all!
