Chapter 176 Inner Jealousy
"Did Wang Ximei's nephew Wang Yaozu join the transport team? He's already come to Beijing, and there's been no news from back home."
Yang Shujuan was so angry that she could hardly stand. She sat on a stool, holding the table with her hands and gasping for breath.
Xia Yuanqing could no longer sit still. After all, he only had this one daughter, and she couldn't let her die in the hands of those evil-hearted people.
"I'll call Uncle Wu and ask him. You stay home and look after Xiaoyue. I'll be right back."
"It's getting dark, so take a flashlight with you."
"I understand."
After Yang Shujuan finished washing the dishes, Old Xia came back in a hurry and quickly went over to ask, "What did Uncle Wu say?"
Xia Yuanqing took a sip of water, cleared his throat, and said, "That Wang Yaozu has indeed joined the transport team in the city. Those people from my hometown waited until we left to go and ask Uncle Wu for information."
"Uncle Wu scolded him and sent him away without saying anything."
"Then how did Wang Yaozu know our address? Only my fifth uncle knows the compound where we live now."
"I guess that guy has found someone. Let's get through to the post office and ask someone. Maybe we can find out."
Xia Yuanqing naturally hated her in his heart, because he had suffered a lot at the hands of Wang Juhua when he was young.
I didn't expect that the people in the Wang family are so cunning.
Yang Shujuan was filled with anger: "No one in the Wang family is a good person."
"I asked Xiaoyue for a day off. It's getting late, so she should go to bed early."
"OK."
…
Yang Shujuan slept with Xia Yue tonight, fearing that something might happen at night, and she didn't dare to fall into a deep sleep.
Sure enough, by midnight, Xia Yue had a fever again.
My body felt burning hot when I touched it, as if it was on a furnace.
Yang Shujuan was so scared that she quickly got up and went to the next room to wake Old Xia up.
The couple opened the door, packed their things, and took their daughter to the hospital. Old Xia walked in front with their daughter on his back, while she stood beside him with a flashlight and money in her pocket.
As soon as I went down the stairs, I saw the door of Old Zhou's house opposite opened.
"Master, it's late at night, I'll go with you."
As soon as this person spoke, the two knew that the child who didn't sleep well at night was Zhou Zhiwen.
He couldn't sleep tonight. Just as he was about to get up to go to the bathroom, he heard the door open.
"Zhiwen, you kid, when Xiaoyue gets better, you must come home for dinner."
Yang Shujuan wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes as she spoke.
Xia Yuanqing was also grateful in his heart, thinking: He was right about the person.
"Master's wife, you are too polite. We are one family and we should not have different opinions."
Zhou Zhiwen smiled innocently and touched his head. He had learned a lot from his father in the past few days, and his words became sweeter than before.
The group rushed to the hospital under the cover of night.
…
The next day, the three members of the Xie family got up about ten minutes earlier than usual because Xie Da Jiao was going to ride a bike to take Lin Xiaotong to work this morning.
"I'm going to the market today to see if there's any pig's trotters for sale. If I find any, we can have braised pig's trotters for lunch."
Lin Xiaotong, who was eating breakfast, swallowed when she heard Gao Xiulan's words.
She felt that it was not impossible to cure the disease by taking similar medicine.
Braised pork trotters are so delicious! If you feel tired of it, just eat it with smashed cucumber.
"Okay, if you don't have any, weigh some big bones and make some soup."
Xie Da Jiao took a bite of the chive dumpling and gave his advice.
"Old Xie, remember to go to the post office to pick up the package at noon. I wonder what Xie Yi is sending back this time?"
"Who knows, kid?"
…
After breakfast, Lin Xiaotong sat in the back seat and was taken to work.
"Dad, I'm leaving first."
She can't use too much strength with her feet now, so it's not very convenient for her to ride a bicycle, but walking slowly is fine.
"Hey, slow down."
Lin Xiaotong moved slowly to the first floor.
"What's wrong with you? I haven't seen you for just one day, so why are you limping?"
When He Cuicui saw this, she immediately ran over to support him, and Yan Yue supported the other arm.
"It's nothing serious, I just twisted my ankle accidentally."
Finally, she sat down on the bench and took out a cup of water from the cloth bag.
Holding it in both hands, she blinked her big eyes at He Cuicui: "Sister Cuicui~"
"Okay, okay, I'll pour it for you."
He Cuicui raised her little head to get the water.
"Thank you~"
Just as I was about to talk to Yan Yue, I saw the newcomer Xiao Qin coming over and sitting at the new counter.
After getting the water, He Cuicui came back and found the first floor unusually quiet. Just as she was about to speak, her eyes met Xiao Qin's stern face, and she fell silent.
He quietly returned to the counter and started flirting with Lin Xiaotong next to him.
This person didn't introduce herself, so I don't know her name yet.
The ready-to-wear counter actually handles even fewer items and is truly a menial job.
The ready-made clothes are imported from some large local factories or Shanghai. Some of them are made of scarce materials or fashionable styles, and of course the prices are also very attractive.
Most people still choose to buy fabrics and make clothes themselves, which is much more cost-effective than buying ready-made clothes directly.
After the summer came, what is hanging now are tops and dresses.
The customers who come here are generally female comrades who have jobs or come from well-off families, and they come in groups of three or four.
Anyone who is generous enough to buy one will immediately receive envious looks from their friends.
The weather has been very hot recently, and many female comrades come to the department store for a stroll after receiving their salary.
Lin Xiaotong had just seen off a female comrade who came to buy vanishing cream. She took a sip of water at her seat and turned her head to find someone coming to Xiao Qin's counter.
"Wei Hong, what a coincidence! You actually came to work here without telling us."
A young lesbian was complaining to Xiao Qin, with a gay man following beside her.
Judging from what they said, it's possible that these three people know each other.
Lin Xiaotong and He Cuicui glanced at each other and pricked up their ears to watch the show.
"I didn't expect it either. My family arranged it for me. Now you know it."
Qin Weihong spoke calmly and nonchalantly.
The female comrade looked at Xu Dongsheng next to her with an unclear look in her eyes.
"Forget about me not knowing, but you didn't even tell Dongsheng, that's really not nice of you."
Qin Weihong also felt guilty this time. She curled her lips, glanced at Xu Dongsheng who was smiling at her, and then looked away.
"Alright, alright, I'll treat you to dinner at the state-owned restaurant later."
Xu Dongsheng clenched his hands, but still had a kind smile on his face.
"I want to eat braised pork."
"By the way, Chen Lan, I told you a long time ago that my clothes are a bit too big for you. You should take them back and have them altered."
"You're not as tall as me, and some clothes really can't fit you. They look tacky."
Chen Lan almost couldn't hold back the smile on her face as she listened to Qin Weihong's blunt words.
Adjust your emotions and try your best to resist giving the person a slap in the face.
She had originally wanted to go with Xu Dongsheng to buy a graduation gift for Qin Weihong today, and wear the clothes Qin Weihong gave her, thinking of flattering her when the time comes.
Qin Weihong's father is the head of the Revolutionary Committee. It would only take a word to arrange a job for her.
I didn't expect to see this person working here as soon as I entered the gate. In an instant, the jealousy in my heart surged like a tide, and the thought in my mind could no longer be stopped.
Lin Xiaotong, who was eavesdropping on the side, was so embarrassed that her toes almost touched the ground. He Cuicui rolled her eyes with her back to the three of them.
"Haha, Wei Hong doesn't have the same taste as you. I'll go back and alter your clothes."
Oh my god, he can tolerate this, he is a talented person.
