Chapter 15: Help You Stay

Jiang Chuan walked home in a daze. When he passed by the family building, he saw Du Wanqiu holding the child and basking in the sun downstairs.

I didn't want to care about it originally, but I thought the child was so smart, how could he withstand it in such a cold weather?

I couldn't help but say, "The child is not even one month old yet. Don't take him out in such cold weather. If he catches a cold, he will have to get injections and take medicine."

Du Wanqiu saw all his hesitation.

Did he go to see Xiao Qingru just now?

But judging from his expression, it seemed that they parted on bad terms.

That's right, how could someone as proud as Xiao Qingru tolerate her partner choosing someone else again and again.

Thinking that she would have to leave after the baby was one month old, Du Wanqiu had no time to think about Xiao Qingru anymore.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he choked up and said, "Comrade Jiang, I don't want to go back to my hometown. Can you help me?"

"I can help you temporarily, but I can't help you forever. I will leave you sooner or later."

"I know this will make you feel awkward, but you also know the situation in my hometown. If we go back, it will be a question whether we can survive."

Jiang Chuan frowned, "It's not as exaggerated as you said. For the sake of the child, your mother-in-law won't make it too difficult for you."

Du Wanqiu shook her head, "You don't understand your mother-in-law. In her eyes, it was because of her husband's death that she lost her son. After returning home, Baobao will definitely not have a peaceful life. I am fine, but Baobao is still so naughty. If something happens to him, how can I face the child's father?"

Speaking of his good friend, Jiang Chuan felt embarrassed, as there were some things that were beyond his control.

"Why don't you go back home and wait for news? Uncle Xiao said that someone will take care of your life and will try their best to help you solve work problems. If you get a job, you can live in the dormitory, and then your mother-in-law won't be able to interfere in your affairs."

Du Wanqiu wiped away her tears. "All the jobs here are filled by one person. How can there be a vacant position for you? Besides, if you go to work, who will take care of the children?"

This is indeed a problem. If you don't work, you can't avoid those people in your hometown.

Unless she doesn't go back to her hometown and stays here.

For a moment, Jiang Chuan couldn't make up his mind.

Du Wanqiu was very anxious when she saw that Jiang Chuan did not immediately promise to help her with all his strength as he did before.

"Comrade Jiang, can you help me stay? I don't want to embarrass you, but I have no choice. You are the only one who is willing to help me here, and you are the only one that Xiaobao can rely on."

"If I go back to my hometown, I really can't survive. Please, okay?"

Du Wanqiu's tears seemed to sprinkle a handful of salt on Jiang Chuan's heart.

It was hard to find a job, housing was tight, and getting food was even more difficult. Plus, they had an unreasonable mother-in-law. Life was really hard for them as an orphan and a widow.

She was so helpless and so pitiful.

The way he was looked at was like he was his only lifeline.

Full of expectations, yet also flashing with despair.

It was like being on a cliff, life or death, all depended on his thoughts.

Jiang Chuan listened to his own voice and said, "Okay, I'll help you stay."

Du Wanqiu burst into laughter and excitedly pulled Jiang Chuan's clothes, "Comrade Jiang, thank you, you are such a good person."

In fact, Jiang Chuan felt a little regretful after he finished speaking. He shouldn't have taken on this job impulsively.

After all, this matter is too big, and the effort is different from previous actions.

녦Men should keep their words. It is always bad to go back on one's word.

Moreover, Du Wanqiu was so happy, he really couldn't do anything that would give people hope and make them despair at the same time.

That's too immoral.

I collected my thoughts and glanced at the child. His face was red from being frozen, so pitiful.

"The noodles are very cold, take the children home quickly."

Du Wanqiu nodded repeatedly, "Comrade Jiang, then I'll wait for your good news."

"Um."

Motioned for her to go upstairs first.

Du Wanqiu looked back every few steps, and finally gave Jiang Chuan a big smile before quickly walking up the stairs.

You have to eat one bite at a time. Some things cannot be rushed. The most important thing right now is to stay.

If she could stay in the orphanage, plus the money in the bank, she would definitely live a good life in the future.

Better than Xiao Qingru!

Du Wanqiu thought that she couldn't just wait and had to make two preparations.

If Jiangchuan doesn't succeed, then she can take another path.

"Comrade Jiang, are you here to see Comrade Du?"

“Just passing by.”

"I wonder when I can drink at your wedding? After all, you have already broken off the engagement with Qingru, and everyone is on their own. No one will say anything if you and Comrade Du start a family."

Jiang Chuan's face darkened, "What marriage? Stop spreading rumors! I don't want to hear such talk again in the future."

"Well, you come to see Du Wanqiu every day. What else could it be if you don't want to marry her? Anyway, there is no obstacle between you two now, so just marry her. It will be convenient for you to take care of her children in the future."

What nonsense! Jiang Chuan was so angry that he almost choked.

He never thought of marrying Du Wanqiu!

I don't mean that to her!

No wonder Qingru refused to get back together with him, she must have heard too many such words and was influenced by them.

Take a deep breath and tell yourself that you don't need to explain too much to these people, otherwise it is very likely to make things worse.

As long as he doesn't do anything out of line, it's up to others to say what they want.

"Hey, why are you leaving before I've even finished talking?"

Mrs. Wang, who had been silent the whole time, tugged at the sleeve of the person next to her and said, "Are you crazy? Can you just say these things casually?"

"I just can't stand the one in Lou 껗."

"If you don't like it, why don't you just stop associating with her? Why are you saying all this nonsense? You don't want to cause trouble for yourself."

The middle-aged woman curled her lips and said, "They are the ones who are ignorant of what they do, and they blame you for your bad words?"

Mrs. Wang sighed, "Du Wanqiu is really pitiful. It's not easy to raise a child alone. If she can find a reliable man, it will be a good thing."

There’s nothing wrong with finding a man, but you can’t find a man who’s already in a relationship.

The middle-aged woman rolled her eyes and said, "You really are taking advantage of others. You took care of Du Wanqiu some time ago. You must have accepted her kindness, right?"

Mrs. Wang smiled jokingly and said, "We didn't take much."

"Alright, alright, I'm going home to cook. The matter between these two is not over yet, just wait and see."

The middle-aged woman carried a basket filled with radishes she had exchanged from other people's homes and hummed an unknown folk tune as she went home.

Wang Sao knew more about Jiangchuan and Du Wanqiu's affairs, and at this moment she inexplicably developed a feeling.

This matter may not end so easily.

After all, both the Xiao and Jiang families have broken off the engagement, which is enough to show the seriousness of the matter.

Mrs. Wang thought that she had a good relationship with Du Wanqiu, and if she could really marry Jiang Chuan, any good things in the future would definitely fall on her.

When I thought about it this way, the balance in my heart tilted towards Du Wanqiu.

I hope she works harder.
