Chapter 48 Don’t make a mistake and disappoint the child
Old man Su felt young, and after washing up, he sat by the shed and braided straw. When he had collected enough, he made it into a straw hat and handed it in in exchange for money.
Although the money is not much, it is at least a legitimate income.
While I was busy, I saw someone coming hurriedly.
Being too far away to see the person's face clearly, he coughed hurriedly to alert the people in the room. Suddenly, there was a commotion in the room, but soon everything returned to calm.
He relaxed only when the person came closer.
"Mr. Su, are you in good health? I'm here to see you."
Huang Xinran was holding a small bamboo basket and greeted him cheerfully.
"It's Yun Chen's wife. Why are you here alone when it's already dark? Come in and sit down."
Mr. Su hurriedly stood up and greeted her.
"Isn't this what you do during the day?"
Recently, the fields have been busy with planting rice and leveling the land, but everyone is busy, and she is the only one who is idle and does not run around to work. For this, the villagers have criticized her a lot.
Huang Xinran knew this, but after she made the "big money", the production team had to earn a few work points, which was hard and tiring. She was unable to take care of both.
"Mr. Su, the cherries at home are ripe. I'll send some over from my shop so that everyone can have a taste. Come, have a taste." Huang Xinran spoke as he walked into the house. When he saw the people in the house, he smiled and nodded to everyone. Then he put down the fruits he brought for everyone to taste.
These were small cherries that she had picked out that morning. She kept one portion for the two children and brought the rest over.
She didn't have anything to show off, so it wouldn't be a big deal to give her a gift of fruit. If someone with ulterior motives found out that she was close to bad elements, she could easily shirk responsibility. Although she knew that these people would be rehabilitated soon, she didn't know about the others. If something strange happened during this period, who would she go to for justice?
Even though they are small cherries, their heads are very big, which is incomparable to ordinary cherries.
Several people present saw it and were very surprised.
"This is a cherry?!"
"These cherries are of amazing quality. Let me taste them to see if they are delicious. Hmm..."
"Don't try to grab it, Lao Wang! We haven't even tasted it yet!"
Several elderly people each grabbed a handful and ate some, and found that the cherries were really delicious.
"Hmm, this cherry...not only does it look different, it tastes amazing. Could it be a new variety discovered somewhere?"
"I cultivated these fruit trees using a new method, and this is the first year of trial production."
In order not to shock the world, Huang Xinran shamelessly attributed it all to herself: "Fortunately, I am lucky. The cherries this year are especially delicious."
It's not just exceptionally good, it couldn't be better!
Several people were scrambling for the cherries, and soon the whole basket was eaten up.
The last few were snatched by Old Wang, who couldn't help laughing: "I told you that you were old, but you didn't believe me. Look, these are all mine!"
"Bah! You shameless bastard, Lao Wang! This was clearly given to me by Yun Chen's wife, and you dare to snatch it away. Wait, next time you don't let me have a few chopsticks when eating meat, I'll get angry with you!"
"Come on, who's afraid of who?"
Boss Wang laughed.
Only then did he have the chance to sit down and look at Huang Xinran: "I know you. Yun Chen mentioned you last time he came. But, why did I hear that you are not very happy living in the Lu family?"
I heard that it’s not that life in Lu’s house is uncomfortable, but something else, right?
Huang Xinran's smiling face didn't change at all: "Nothing happened. I was just young and ignorant, and I was bewildered and lent a large sum of money to others. In the end, I couldn't get it back. It was passed around, and the outside world got a different story."
"Oh, really."
Lao Wang stared at her and said nothing more.
Old man Wang next to him snorted coldly and interrupted: "How come I heard that it's not like that?"
"Who told you that, old man?"
Huang Xinran pressed the issue: "I heard that you are all well-educated people. Don't just follow the crowd."
"you……"
Mr. Wang didn't expect Huang Xinran to dare to talk back. He didn't say who said it, but only cursed him secretly: "You are so sharp-tongued! You don't know how to teach."
"I am not as good as you, old man. You are already this old, can't you tell right from wrong?"
Without noticing the other person's changed expression, Huang Xinran bent down to pick up his small bamboo basket, then looked at Su Lao: "Su Lao, it's getting late, I'll go back first."
"Okay, I'll see you off."
It was said to be a gift, but in fact it was to give Huang Xinran the things he had kept.
After he escorted the person out, Su Lao lowered his voice and spoke, "You don't look like what those people say. You look like a sensible and good child. But this person! You should not have the intention to harm others, but you must be on guard against others. You should be more vigilant in the future!"
"Mr. Su, what did someone say to you?"
Mr. Su was silent.
When Huang Xinran thought the other party would not say anything, he spoke: "Don't worry, no one can say anything. Yun Chen is willing to bring you here, which shows that in his heart, he still cares about you. You must not make a mistake and disappoint that child."
Did Lu Yunchen say something?
No, not really.
Although she had not been with Lu Yunchen for a long time, she still knew him very well. This man was too arrogant, and even if there was something between them and they were getting divorced, he would not talk nonsense about it.
Then among the remaining people, the only one who might come and chat in front of Su Lao and others must be Jiang Yurou without a doubt!
Come to think of it!
Jiang Yurou knew several of the elderly people, probably before her.
Thinking back to her previous life, Jiang Yurou had gotten in touch with these people by chance. After they were rehabilitated, she followed them into the city and broadened her horizons.
It seems reasonable that some elderly people are partial to her at this moment.
What's more, she did make the decision to abandon her husband and children in her previous life, so it's no wonder that the other party said that.
After figuring this out, Huang Xinran's steps on the way home became heavy.
Women are afraid of loving the wrong person.
What’s even more frightening is loving someone else but marrying another man.
It is bound to end in tragedy.
When Huang Xinran returned home and put the food into the kitchen, the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside, which really scared her.
Seeing that it was Zhang Wenbi, she patted her chest and said, "Mom, why are you up? Go to bed."
"What is this?"
Zhang Wenbi was surprised to see so much food.
"So much food... where did you get it from?"
"Pfft!~~"
Huang Xinran hurriedly told her to be quiet, looked around and saw no one there, then pulled the person into the house, "Mom, don't shout. Yun Chen and I brought this back together. Don't worry, it's all good stuff!"
How could she not know that it was a good thing?
Zhang Wenbi hurried forward to check. There were flour, rice, rapeseed oil, and she even found a piece of bacon at the bottom, which really shocked her.
"These, were sent by your eldest brother from your mother's family?"
She knew that Huang Hongyi had brought a lot of food in the dark last time. The family had been relying on that food for the past few days, otherwise, they would have been hungry long ago.
Now that so many have been sent, Zhang Wenbi's heart is beating wildly.
