Chapter 46 Happiness is mostly alike, but unhappiness comes in a million forms.



Liu Taohua burst into tears again, "This feels like a dream, I can't believe it's real!"

Da Ni whispered, "Mom, you're not dreaming. You can go to the city to be a worker. You won't have to work in the fields anymore, where your shoulders are so tired you can't even lift them..."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Liu Taohua quickly interrupted Da Ni.

Mother Wei finally calmed down. "I've made the decision. Xi Gun and Tao Hua will stay with Shu Qing, but you two have to pay Shu Qing rent every month!"

Zhao Dahu said anxiously, "Mother, you're slapping me in the face! This matter is settled. If you mention money again, I'm leaving!"

Liu Taohua shook her head and said, "This won't do. It would be too much trouble for you. I can't!"

Wei Shuqing pressed Liu Taohua down and shook her head, saying, "Alright, there's no need for formalities among family. That house has been empty for years; it's just sitting there even if we don't live there. Come and eat." Then she looked at Wei's mother and said, "Then Mom will have to work hard on the housework."

Mother Wei shook her head and patted her chest, saying, "This is nothing, it's not hard work. I'm happy that you have a future! Come on, have a drink!"

The Wei family is looking forward to a new life and is also very grateful to the Zhao family.

But the Qi family was different. When Wei Shuqing went home to deliver New Year's gifts, Qi Zhifang went to the Bureau of Supplies, but this time she couldn't even get through the gate. After much pleading, she made a phone call from outside the gate, only to be told, "Section Chief Liang is on a business trip and is not at the office!"

Qi Zhifang was furious. Lao Liang's bicycle was parked in the bicycle shed. How dare he lie to her! He was avoiding her like the plague! She gritted her teeth in anger. She couldn't count on Lao Liang, and she couldn't count on Li Maocai either. She was all alone now.

There was no other way but to go to work. Wei Shuqing was a scoundrel. There were always a few disgusting people in the men's restroom who wouldn't use the latrines but insisted on doing it outside. She had to endure the disgust and clean it every day. If it weren't for Wei Shuqing's mischief, she would have lost something.

But she can't lose this job, otherwise she'll really have no income.

She endured the nausea and cleaned the toilet all day, while thinking about who could help her. She needed to get something to send to Wang Fang; she couldn't just watch her die!
