But he was not the kind of person who would speak directly. Instead, he was better at talking about this and that than Zhou Qun, which gave Zhou Qun a headache. In the end, he took the initiative to say it: "Xiao Zhuang, there are some misunderstandings between my mother and your wife's grandfather, but it is better to resolve a feud than to create one. We all live in the same courtyard, so there is no need to be too fussy, right?"
Zhuang Zhixi smiled and said, "You are right." You say yours and I will do whatever I am supposed to do.
Zhou Qun was delighted when he heard this and said, "You're right to think so. It's actually not a big deal. There's no need to alarm the factory, right? Why don't you persuade the old man and take the initiative to tell the factory that he made a fuss and misunderstood my mother..."
This person is becoming more and more shameless the more he speaks.
Zhuang Zhixi was still smiling, and he said, "Oh, so that's what Brother Zhou thinks!"
Zhuang Zhixi raised his eyebrows innocently and said, "Brother Zhou, you see, we have lived in the same courtyard for more than 20 years, so we are real neighbors. Aunt Zhou is domineering all day long and is more cruel than the landlord. We don't bother to deal with her, but we can't lie with our eyes open, right? I am an honest man. If you say that to me, I can't say anything. How can we young people disobey the elderly? Besides, you see, the factory has its own version of the matter, and you are now questioning the factory's version. Brother Zhou, don't blame your brother for saying that to you, you are really arrogant now. How come you don't even take the factory leaders seriously? I know you are a technical expert and Aunt Zhou is a street bully, but we are all working people. This is not good, right?"
"You!" Zhou Qun didn't expect that Zhuang Zhixi would not give him face at all. As a person who likes to make a big deal out of others, he understood the meaning of Zhuang Zhixi's words. His face turned pale and he said, "Don't say that. Landlord or bull streety? You can't just say that."
Zhuang Zhixi nodded: "Yes, you can't just say it casually, but Aunt Zhou shouldn't do it either. Robbing the house, isn't that what Huang Shiren did?"
Zhou Qun was even angry. He took a deep breath and exhaled: "My mother is ignorant. Besides, the house has been there for many years. My mother always thinks that the house belongs to us..."
Zhuang Zhixi: "I still thought the machinery factory belonged to me, but they didn't give it to me."
Zhuang Zhixi is just like this. He talks like this, and he doesn't get angry, but can smile. He said, "Brother Zhou, look, this is one thing and one thing only. We don't blame you for your mother's bad behavior. We know you can't control your mother, after all, you are a junior. We should still deal with each other as we should, but we shouldn't get too involved in the decisions of the elders. That's not right. Besides, I haven't even gone home, but just from what I heard, I feel that your mother is really extraordinary. Huang Shiren robbed Xier, and your mother robbed the house. It seems that she must have watched White Haired Girl too many times and learned everything. It's incredible, it's incredible."
Zhuang Zhixi's calm look made Zhou Qun even angrier.
This is a little bit of a disagreement between the two of them, which is the most annoying thing. You are so angry, but the other party has no reaction at all, which makes people feel resentful.
He said, "So you won't help?"
He lowered his voice, and Zhuang Zhixi was very puzzled: "Help? Brother Zhou, what did you say? You didn't ask me to help? Why did you suddenly bring up the topic of help? Ah, you didn't mean for me to persuade the old man to admit his mistake. No way, no way, Brother Zhou, you can't be so confusing right and wrong, right?"
Zhou Qun had a cold face. Zhuang Zhixi patted his shoulder comfortingly and said, "I know Aunt Zhou didn't do this well and embarrassed you. Don't be too sad."
The air pressure is lower around the group.
Zhuang Zhixi looked at Zhou Qun with sympathy and said, "Brother Zhou, if you feel bad, just talk to your brother. Don't keep it in your heart. If you keep it in your heart for too long, it is easy to get sick. Don't get sick because of this matter at such a young age."
Zhou Qun gnashed his teeth and said, "You don't need to worry about me. Just take care of yourself."
Zhuang Zhixi smiled: "Thank you, Brother Zhou, for your connection."
Then he added, "Brother Zhou, you really don't have to be so formal with me. If you feel uncomfortable holding it in, let's have a drink. As long as you pay the bill, I will drink with you until the end of time."
Zhou Qun had never seen such a shameless person. He was so angry, what else could he say? He still wanted him to treat him? What kind of beautiful dream was that? He never invited people from their courtyard, and he couldn't add any blessing to him, so what good thing was he thinking?
He won't give anything to anyone who doesn't need it.
"Brother Zhou, how did the factory deal with your Huang Shiren? Can you tell me? I don't know more about the situation. I just heard it from others. It's more accurate to get the news firsthand. You see, it's been passed around, but I remember your mother is Huang Shiren anyway."
Zhou Qun finally couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Stop talking about Huang Shiren. What Huang Shiren? What Huang Shiren? Just shut up."
Zhuang Zhixi said aggrievedly: "Why are you still angry? Isn't this spread all over the factory? I know you are in a bad mood because of your mother's matter, but you can't take it out on me. Besides, anger is harmful to your health. You see, we live in the same courtyard, so don't get angry and get hurt. I heard from the eldest sister in our infirmary that people get angry very easily..."
“That’s enough!”
Zhou Qun was such a petty person. He was so angry that his face turned black. He had no manners at all and just walked away in anger.
The man turned around and strode away. Zhuang Zhixi stood there without moving, looking at his back and shrugged his shoulders, looking very innocent.
This person is really too petty.
He didn't say anything extreme.
That's it, he hasn't even started yet.
At this time, he happened to meet Yang Lixin who was delayed for a while after get off work. Yang Lixin looked at him curiously: "Why are you leaving so late today?"
"Why are you leaving so late today?"
The two people said in unison.
Zhuang Zhixi laughed and said, "Isn't this because Brother Zhou Qun has been pestering me? He came to see me and left unhappy. He really has a bad temper."
Yang Lixin immediately asked, "Why did he come to you? Was it because of his mother? His mother really deserved it. She was allowed to show off in the hospital, and now she is getting her retribution. So it's not that the time has not come yet for retribution."
Yang Lixin hated Zhou Li very much.
Because Yang Lixin was a son-in-law, even his son could not take his own surname. Although he did not say anything on the surface, Zhou Lishi often said in public and behind his back that he was a gigolo, which made him very unhappy.
It is said that Zhou Li is a very annoying person. She just likes to poke people in the heart.
"This old man, isn't he going to get his skin peeled off this time?"
Zhuang Zhixi: "It shouldn't be that serious, right?"
He said with some speculation: "Brother Zhou Qun also has some connections. I heard that Sister Jiang Lu didn't go to work this afternoon. I guess she went to run some connections for him."
Zhuang Zhixi said, "What about you? You left quite late today. Isn't your cafeteria closed after mid-afternoon?"
Yang Lixin: "The factory leaders are hosting a banquet, I am here to prepare the food."
Zhuang Zhixi: "Then there's no need to wait for them to finish eating."
Yang Lixin smiled and said, "No, the chef is here, we don't need a kitchen helper."
He was obviously not interested in who the factory director invited to the banquet. After all, as a chef in the factory, he had seen many such situations. He was not surprised. He was curious about what happened today. He approached Zhuang Zhixi and lowered his voice: "Brother, tell me, what happened today?"
Zhuang Zhixi spread his hands and said, "I don't know."
He said sincerely: "I was at work all day and didn't go home. I didn't know what happened. Anyway, I heard that Zhou Qun's mother robbed someone's house, insulted the factory director and the security department, and was arrested."
He didn't lie. He just heard it from others. It was all hearsay.
"What about Zhou Qun just now...?"
Zhuang Zhixi said righteously: "Who knows what happened to him? He was incoherent and angry. It was probably because Aunt Zhou was angry. After all, he is considered a new generation with some ability in the factory, but he ended up with such a mother."
After a pause, he thought for a moment and said, "I guess Zhou Qun is the one invited to the cafeteria tonight."
Yang Lixin's eyes widened, and he said in shock: "How is that possible? Impossible."
Zhuang Zhixi smiled: "How is that impossible? He was just walking back. Brother Zhou Qun is different from us. He has a very capable father-in-law. Maybe they are having a meal together to ease the relationship."
Yang Lixin frowned slightly, and after a long while, he said, "How about I go back and take a look?"
Zhuang Zhixi: "It's up to you. I have to go home. If I don't go home soon, my wife will come out to look for me."
Yang Lixin's mouth twitched. He didn't believe it. But seeing that Zhuang Zhixi's words sounded like the truth, he also hesitated. He thought about it and finally gave up. He said, "Let's go home."
The two of them returned to the yard together, and it was quite lively there.
Everyone who got off work came back and gathered in groups to talk about what happened today. Zhou and Li were unpopular, so everyone was as lively as if it was Chinese New Year. No one was in a hurry to go home.
As soon as Zhuang Zhixi came back, he saw everyone looking at him.
Zhuang Zhixi smiled and said, "Are you waiting for me?"
That's a bit self-indulgent.
Mingmei rushed out immediately and whispered, "Everyone is waiting for Zhou Qun and Jiang Lu to come back, and they're also here to see if Aunt Zhou is coming back."
When everyone saw that it was Zhuang Zhixi and Yang Lixin who came back, they were naturally not interested. These two people didn't know as much as they did, so everyone continued to chat. Zhuang Zhixi looked around and said, "Where's grandpa?"
Mingmei: "He went back. The house is not dry yet. He can't move in today."
Mingmei was herself still quite angry when talking about this. She pouted and said, "Why is Aunt Zhou so annoying? She really takes so seriously that she even bullies my grandpa. She really treats us as if we don't exist!"
Zhuang Zhixi: "Auntie Zhou has always been like this. You've been married for almost two months, you should know that she is like this."
Mingmei snorted and said, "I think everyone is so nice to her that she has no shame herself."
Zhuang Zhixi rubbed his wife's head and said, "Don't be angry. I don't think your grandfather is angry either. Why are you angry?"
Mingmei thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. According to what her mother-in-law said, her grandfather didn't seem to be angry at all, and he didn't even take Aunt Zhou seriously. It turned out that his top priority was to find a partner, which was also eye-opening for her.
Mingmei scratched her hair and said, "What did you hear at the factory?"
Zhuang Zhixi: "Everyone is just gossiping. After all, no one knows what's going on."
"What else could it be? Someone will give me a gift?"
Someone interrupted. It was Bai Fendou who had just walked in. Bai Fendou curled his lips and said, "How can Zhou Qun be an ordinary person? She is willing to send Huazi. I think Aunt Zhou will be back tomorrow. Look, her father-in-law came to the factory in the evening. He is still drinking in the factory now."
Bai Fendou is from the security department and knows a lot more than the average person.
Besides, this matter always goes through their security department. Although Bai Fendou didn't come with them to arrest Aunt Zhou, he also inquired about it in detail. Aunt Zhou extorted fifteen yuan from him, and he remembered it all.
It was rare to see Aunt Zhou get humiliated this time, and he really regretted that he hadn't come with her during the day. If there was such an opportunity, he would definitely hold down this old hag and kick her a few times.
Let's see if she dares to be arrogant in front of Bai Fendou again.
What a pity! But it's not a pity, now the old woman is suffering in the security department. It's just hateful that Zhou Qun actually became the leader's guest of honor.
"Ah, Zhou Qun is sitting at the same table with the leader?"
"Hua Zi, Zhou Qun gave Hua Zi to someone for this matter? To whom?"
"Struggle, you have to tell us about it."
"It's said that Zhou Qun will get married. Look at them all. No one can compare to Jiang Lu as a good wife. Not only is she well-off, but she can also take care of things for her husband."
"Who said it wasn't true? Jiang Lu has nothing to complain about except that she can't have children."
Zhuang Zhixi laughed and teased, "Brother Fendou, you know everything. You know everything about Huazi. You are well-informed. As expected, we ordinary people are not as well-informed as you security guards. I hear this person passing on the news, that person passing on the news, and I don't know which one is telling the truth."
Bai Fendou was very proud and said with a smile, "Of course not? Have I stayed in the security department in vain? I know much more than you do. I was watching them today and saw what Zhou Qun and his wife took with them. Later, when they came out, our leader started smoking Huazi. If it wasn't given by them, who else could it be? How could ordinary people afford Huazi? I think Zhou Qun must have gotten it from his father-in-law. Even though Zhou Qun fights for a lot, he still enjoys his gigolo life."
Bai Fendou was still very jealous of Zhou Qun, and that was why he did not try to cover up for her. He just said everything. Everyone looked at each other in confusion, each with their own thoughts. Zhuang Zhixi and his wife were among them.
Zhuang Zhixi smiled and said, "Brother Zhou Qun is really lucky. He is sitting at the same table with the leader. It seems that he will be promoted soon, right?"
"Ah? How come he can get promoted by relying on personal connections? That's not the way it should be."
"That's right, if it depends on gifts, we don't agree."
“No leader can do this!”
Bai Fendou's face turned red and his neck became thick: "This kid can't get promoted. If he relies on connections to get promoted, we can find someone else!"
“Yes, yes, yes.”
For a moment, everyone stopped paying attention to Aunt Zhou and instead focused on the promotion. Who knows if it's reliable at all. But it did spark everyone's enthusiasm and they all started talking about it. Zhuang Zhixi was quite lively nearby, and he was really not afraid of big things.
Mingmei also came over to the side. She glanced out of the corner of her eye and suddenly saw the little brat Su Jinlai peeking at the door of Zhou's house.
Mingmei: “???”
She gently pulled Zhuang Zhixi, and Zhuang Zhixi saw the boy poking his head out, and he knew that the boy must be holding it in. He turned his eyes away as if nothing had happened and didn't bother to pay any more attention.
"Zhuang Zhixi, you just keep chatting when you come back. The family can't count on you at all!" Zhao Guihua shouted as she walked out of the door.
Zhuang Zhixi immediately ran away and hurried home, "Mom, I'm here now. I'll do whatever you tell me to do."
Zhao Guihua: "What are you doing? What else can you do at this time? Come back and eat."
Mingmei approached Zhao Guihua with a thieving look on her face and whispered, "I think Su Jinlai wants to steal something again."
She really couldn't understand why the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Su family didn't know how to discipline their child. A good child has become like this. He thinks about stealing all day long. He is not seen doing serious work, but he is quite talented in stealing.
When he heard that the other person was not at home, he was immediately interested and was very good at seizing opportunities.
Mingmei curled her lips and whispered, "If this is stolen, won't the Zhou family be furious?"
Zhuang Zhixi raised his eyes to look at his wife and said, "That's not necessarily true."
Mingmei: “Huh?”
She looked at him in confusion. Zhuang Zhixi said, "The Zhou family is having trouble right now and is not very popular. Zhou Qun's dinner with the leader was publicized again. He must want to keep a low profile. If that's the case, he probably accepted it."
Zhao Guihua: "A dog will always eat shit!"
This kid Su Jinlai kept repeating the cycle of going in and out, out and in for the rest of his life... He stole needles when he was young and stole gold when he grew up. It became a habit and he couldn't change it at all.
Zhao Guihua served the food and said, "You two should stop staring at other people's homes all day. That's just idleness. Can you be more motivated?"
After saying this, Zhao Guihua burst out laughing.
Zhuang Zhixi and Mingmei looked at each other, not knowing what Zhao Guihua was laughing at. After Zhao Guihua finished laughing, her face turned serious and she said, "Okay, let's eat."
Every night at dinner, the family would always talk about what happened today, like a family meeting. Zhao Guihua talked about what happened today. She didn't sympathize with Aunt Zhou at all. She brought it upon herself.
But she said to Mingmei very seriously: "Go back to your parents tomorrow and tell them what I said and give them a message."
Mingmei: "Yeah, go ahead."
Zhao Guihua: "There are many evildoers in our courtyard. Now they don't know that your grandfather is in good condition. Once they know, it will be a different story. Aunt Zhou and Aunt Su will have to take action. I don't worry about Aunt Zhou, your grandfather will definitely look down on her, but as for Aunt Su, you have to explain to your mother what kind of person this old lady is. Otherwise, she will be tricked. I think it's a good idea for your grandfather to find a partner. If he finds a suitable one, these two old hags won't be able to take advantage of your grandfather. But before you find a suitable one, you must tell your mother to stay away from these two old widows. Oh, and young widows are not allowed either."
When Mingmei heard this, she nodded heavily and said, "Don't worry, Mom. I know who they are. I have eyes like a hawk and a golden eye, and I can see through them all."
Zhao Guihua: "Then I won't wait for you for dinner tomorrow."
Mingmei: “OK!”
"Mom, do you have anything to do tomorrow?" Zhuang Zhiyuan asked at this time.
Zhao Guihua: "It's okay. What's wrong? Just tell me if you have something to say."
Zhuang Zhiyuan: "Please give me the bicycle and fishing rod. I have a day off tomorrow and I want to go fishing in the mountains."
During this period, whenever he met someone who knew how to fish, he would try his best to ask for advice. Without bragging, he was now the most awesome person ever, and was absolutely a giant in theory.
"I think I can do it!"
Based on Zhuang Zhiyuan's understanding of his mother, if his mother didn't want to go fishing, she definitely wouldn't have bought a bicycle so early. Doesn't he know his mother well? She lives a careful life! So Zhuang Zhiyuan was also very anxious.
"Make me two steamed buns tomorrow, and I won't come back."
Liang Meifen was about to say something but stopped herself. She looked up at her husband expectantly and asked him to call her along! She was also upset at home with her mother-in-law.
She gave the job to her brother from her natal family, because the street couldn't accommodate the normal graduates and the poor families. She would not be assigned small jobs at all, because this kind of job was for the poor families. She had nothing to do, and she was staring at her mother-in-law at home, which made her feel suffocated! Liang Meifen looked at her husband and thought to herself, other couples can be together, why can't you bring me along? Liang Meifen looked at her man once, and then looked at him again, and found that Zhuang Zhiyuan knew nothing at all, like a wooden man. She felt wronged and her eyes were red. She was afraid of being seen, so she lowered her head and ate her meal.
Zhao Guihua: "Let me make you a roujiamo."
Zhuang Zhiyuan looked at his mother in surprise and said, "Roujiamo?"
Zhao Guihua: "You'll know tomorrow."
Zhuang Zhixi muttered to the side: "You are biased, why don't you tell me to do it?...Ah!"
After being hit, Zhao Guihua said: "Shut up! Are you looking for trouble?"
The two children giggled. Zhuang Zhixi pretended to be very aggrieved, approached Mingmei pitifully, and said, "Wife, my mother treated me like this, you have to care about me."
Mingmei poked him: "It's okay. You should learn how to fish. You have no skills if you don't learn."
Zhuang Zhixi felt really wronged. How could he be so ignorant? He also worked hard, right? Why did these people think of him like this? He bit a mouthful of the steamed bun angrily and said, "You all bully me."
Zhao Guihua: "Humph, I asked you to pay attention to sewing the plane tickets, but did you pay attention to it?"
Zhuang Zhixi: "Mom, it's not that hard!"
Zhuang Zhiyuan was surprised: "Sewing plane ticket? Mom, you want to buy a sewing machine?"
Zhao Guihua thought about the fact that her eldest son was not at home when she made this decision, and nodded: "Sewing and mending are very convenient. If I buy it early, I can use it early, so it's worth it."
Zhuang Zhiyuan: "Then I'll keep an eye on it too."
The family was in a lively atmosphere, but Zhuang Laonian didn't say anything the whole time. He usually didn't express his opinions. After dinner, Zhao Guihua had nothing to do, so she drove the two couples away. She sat cross-legged on the bed and counted the money.
Although his family bought a bicycle and their food was better than before, their savings were still a little higher than when they first split up. If you want to get rich, you have to be bold. You can make a lot of money by speculating. She sold fish for a few days, and because it was a no-cost business, she made a pretty good profit.
Not only did the family have more meat, but they also bought an extra bicycle. Even with that, they still had some money left over.
Zhao Guihua sighed: "Speculation is really profitable."
Zhuang Laonian's heart trembled, and he quickly said, "You can't always do this."
Zhao Guihua: “I know.”
She rolled her eyes and said, "Do you think I'm a fool? I have my own plans."
She put the money away and hid it, saying, "I don't know when I can get the sewing ticket."
She had already made up her mind, and said, "If the eldest brother can catch a fish, I will prepare one and give it to Aunt Wang tomorrow. We have borrowed her sewing machine several times, so we should at least show some appreciation. After all, we don't know when we can buy one, so we will have to borrow it again."
Zhuang Laonian: "Aren't you the one who makes all the decisions about family affairs?"
Zhao Guihua calculated the days. Although she was guarding the fish pond, if things didn't change, someone would find the pond in two months, and the fish pond would no longer belong to her. She had to fish as much as possible during this period.
That method doesn't work in winter, and fishing is not good, she said: "It's really frustrating."
Zhuang Lao Ni: "What?"
Zhao Guihua: "I just want to catch more fish."
Zhuang Laonian didn't think so, and said, "It's a long-lasting stream."
Zhao Guihua didn't like this. She snorted and said, "What do you mean by a long and steady stream of water? Do you think no one can find out? It's not very hidden anywhere."
Zhuang Laonian thought about it and realized that it was true. Zhao Guihua sighed and said, "I wish I were a fisherman who could fish with a net."
"That's not the case. Think about it, if you bring back too much, it won't be easy to deal with."
Zhao Guihua: "It's a one-time thing, but it's okay."
Anyway, she had to find a solution before summer came.
Although going to bed early saves electricity, it's too early. Zhao Guihua sorted the remaining cloth strips into categories. Some were soft and of the right size, so they could be made into socks. At worst, they could be made into aprons. If they couldn't even be made into aprons, she planned to sew them into rags.
"Let Liang Meifen take her time to make the aprons and rags, so she doesn't have to sit idle." Zhao Guihua finished tidying up, poured herself a glass of water, and drank it down in gulps. She said, "This person will not feel at ease if he doesn't work."
She looked out the window, uh... sure enough, the thief was out.
Through the moonlight, she saw Jin Lai tiptoeing towards Zhou's house. As for why he didn't go to Old Man Lan's house, there was nothing in this house. He was young, but not stupid. Jin Lai tiptoed towards Zhou's house, but the Zhou family hadn't come back yet. Because Aunt Zhou was taken away suddenly, his family didn't lock the door. Aunt Wang did carefully close the door. But she couldn't resist a child like Jin Lai who knew everything about them.
He took advantage of the moonlight and gently pushed open the door of Zhou's house. Although he was breaking into the house, Jin Lai didn't dare to steal money. Moreover, his grandmother had told him that stealing money was a crime. But stealing food could only be said to be greedy, and he could get away with it by begging for mercy. So even if he stole, he had to know what he was doing.
Jin Lai followed his grandmother's idea and immediately started looking in the outer kitchen. Although the Zhou family was wealthy, Aunt Zhou was a very stingy person. She was even stingy to herself, so there were not many good things in the Zhou family.
Jin Lai opened the cupboard and found a small basket with six raw eggs in it.
Jin Lai: “Not bad!”
He put the eggs into the bag he prepared. This thief knew to bring his own tools. After he put the eggs in, he opened the rice jar, which was full of corn flour. He remembered his grandmother's words and knew that he couldn't steal all of it at once, so he immediately filled a few buckets with rice. Then he continued to look for it and finally found rice, which weighed only about five or six pounds. He swallowed his saliva and couldn't help but put it all in the bag.
If it was cornmeal, he would still have some concentration, but not rice.
He wanted to eat rice so much.
Jin Lai was like a fish swimming in the sea in Zhou's house. Zhao Guihua leaned over the window and looked out, shaking her head like a rattle. It wasn't that she was ignorant, she was really speechless. If this child had used his understanding and talent for stealing in other places, he would have become a talent long ago.
Zhao Guihua was about to turn around when she suddenly noticed that the curtains of Aunt Su's house moved slightly. Since the two families lived close together, she could still see clearly. Was this... a lookout? But it was not surprising. The two women in this family doted on the three boys, but they were not good at teaching them.
At this moment, the sound of a door opening was heard, which startled several people at once. The thief Jin Lai was so scared that he hid under the bed. Aunt Su, who was watching, was also startled and her heart was in her throat.
Even Zhao Guihua was startled by the sudden sound. After all, she was very focused just now. The little girl ran to the door in her slippers, banging on the door, and shouted, "Grandma, help me!"
The little girl's voice was childish, but full of urgency. Zhao Guihua quickly opened the door and saw Xiaoyanzi when she looked down. The little girl said fearfully, "Grandma, my stomach hurts!"
Zhao Guihua hurried out and quickly came to the room of the two siblings. It was a bunk bed, with the brother sleeping on the upper side and the sister sleeping on the lower side. There was a small desk. Because it was a small side room, the room was very small, so it was not very cold.
Zhao Guihua stepped forward quickly: "What happened?"
Sweat drops as big as tiger beans poured down his cheeks. He cried, "Grandma, my stomach hurts. Am I going to die? Wuuuuu."
Zhao Guihua: "Where does it hurt?"
At this time, the other people in the family also came out with their clothes on. Liang Meifen hurried forward, hugged her son in her arms, and began to cry: "Hutou, what's wrong with you? Don't scare mom. If anything happens to you, what will mom do! Hutou!"
Zhao Guihua frowned: "Why are you crying? Hurry up and change your clothes and send the child to the hospital."
"Yes, yes, let's go to the hospital."
Zhuang Zhiyuan immediately went back to his room to change clothes. Liang Meifen: "I'll go too."
"Grandma, I need grandma, woo woo woo~" All children are like this, when they feel bad, they always look for the person closest to them. Hu Tou was brought up by Zhao Guihua, and she is the one closest to him. Zhao Guihua: "Grandma, go too, we'll take you to the hospital."
The family didn't care about anything else at this time, and they quickly went out. Xiaoyanzi was crying beside them, and they were so scared that they didn't know what to do. Zhuang Zhixi said, "Mom, you go with big brother and the others. My wife and I won't go. It's useless for so many people to go. Besides, we can't be alone at home at night. Xiaoyanzi shouldn't go. Let her sleep in our room."
Zhao Guihua: "Okay."
The family was in a panic, but they quickly put clothes on Hutou. The old couple Zhao Guihua and Zhuang Zhiyuan pushed their bicycles and took the child out. The Bai family lived in the house at the gate. When they heard the noise from his family, they came out and asked, "What happened?"
"The child is not feeling well."
Zhao Guihua and Zhuang Laonian left in a hurry without bothering to explain.
Xiaoyanzi was still crying, Zhuang Zhixi picked her up and said, "Don't cry, stay with your uncle and aunt tonight."
He carried the little one back to his room, and then locked the doors of the next room. His mother Zhao Guihua was watching the fun just now, and in fact, his son was watching as well. Really, when you meet a child like this, you really can't relax for a moment, otherwise you will lose something.
Xiaoyanzi was scared. She grabbed Zhuang Zhixi's clothes and said, "Uncle, my brother won't die, right? He will be fine, right?"
Zhuang Zhixi patted the little girl gently and said, "Of course it will be fine."
Aunt Wang came from the backyard, knocked on the door and asked, "What's going on?"
Zhuang Zhixi: "Hu Tou suddenly had a stomachache, I don't know what happened, so I went to the hospital."
He said, "Thank you for your concern."
Aunt Wang: "Look at what you said, we are neighbors, I should ask. Okay, you and your wife can take care of the child and rest, I will go back first." Now I don't know the reason, even if I ask, I won't get anything, so Aunt Wang didn't stay here for long to delay the young couple's rest, just said: "If you need any help, call me."
Zhuang Zhixi and Mingmei both nodded and sighed in response.
Aunt Wang comes and goes in a hurry.
Little Swallow sobbed softly.
Zhuang Zhixi nodded. He looked down and saw Xiaoyanzi looking at the door helplessly. Zhuang Zhixi shook the little kid and said, "It's okay. Your brother is so brave. He will be fine soon after seeing the doctor."
Xiaoyanzi nodded gently and murmured, "Brother will be fine."
"Yes, brother will be fine."
Mingmei: "Little Swallow, come here. Auntie will give you two pieces of candy. Keep them. You and your brother will each have one piece tomorrow, okay?"
Little Swallow's eyes lit up, and she nodded quickly, saying in a baby voice, "One for brother, and one for Little Swallow."
Mingmei smiled: "That's right."
She put on her coat and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."
Zhuang Zhixi: "I'll go with you."
Mingmei glanced at the child and shook her head: "No, you stay at home with Xiaoyanzi, I'm fine."
In fact, she also felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach, but her discomfort was definitely different from Hutou's. She was that one. Although she had a good physical foundation. She didn't feel as much pain as other girls, but it wasn't like nothing happened.
It's still a bit uncomfortable.
Zhuang Zhixi: "Wear more clothes before you go out."
Mingmei nodded. She was actually very afraid of the cold at this time. She pouted and put on her cotton jacket. Xiaoyanzi was put on the bed by Zhuang Zhixi. She crossed her legs and looked very sad. Zhuang Zhixi scratched her little nose and said, "What are you thinking about, Xiaoyanzi?"
“My brother!”
Zhuang Zhixi: "It's okay, Xiaoyanzi will be able to see her brother tomorrow."
"May I?"
"Of course. If your brother needs to be hospitalized, your uncle will take you to the hospital to see him; if he doesn't need to be hospitalized, you will be able to see your brother when you get up tomorrow morning." Zhuang Zhixi coaxed the child. He has a good relationship with his nephews and nieces.
Zhuang Zhixi was coaxing the child, Mingmei was out, and if we were to say who was in the worst mood in the yard, it would be Jin. He was having a great time stealing, and everything was going well. But then something unexpected happened to the Zhuang family.
Sure enough, what his grandmother and his mother said was right, this family is not kind at all and is extremely wicked. Not helping them is already unforgivable, and they even caused trouble when he was stealing things. It's damnable!
He hated it so much, but he didn't dare to move at all, for fear of being discovered. If he was discovered, he would be in trouble. The events of the previous period were still vivid in his mind. He didn't move, and listened to what was happening outside.
When he heard that it was Hu Tou who was unwell, he felt particularly happy. He hated these children in the yard. Why did they have both a father and a mother, but his family had neither?
Why? Yi He hoped that all the children would have a bad life, that would make him the happiest. Hearing that Hu Tou went to the hospital, he laughed heartily, it would be better if he died. But he quickly covered his mouth again, he couldn't make a sound, if someone found out, it would be over. He crawled out from under the bed, stole some delicious food, and then left.
Just as he climbed out, he heard the door open with a bang, and he quickly shrank back: "Damn it!"
Children can curse too.
This time it was Mingmei who came out. She bent over, put her hands in her sleeves, and walked out of the yard quickly. Ever since there were vague rumors of ghosts, people rarely went to the toilet at night, and they would definitely make do with what they could.
But Mingmei didn't care. To be honest, it wasn't because she was a staunch atheist, but because... she felt she had nothing to be afraid of.
Her master once said that even ghosts are afraid of evil people.
She might fight, but if there is a ghost, she will dare to throw the ghost into the cesspool - just like Zhou Qunbai and Su Jinlai! Go eat shit!
What is she afraid of! Mingmei came to the toilet, and at this time, Zhou Qun and his wife just walked to the alley. Zhou Qun drank a little too much, and his walking was unstable and swaying. Jiang Lu supported Zhou Qun and said, "Walk slowly, slow down, look at you, you drink so much, I can't persuade you. I'll make you a bowl of tea when I get home, it to get rid of the drink alcohol."
Zhou Qun was a little drunk. She snorted coldly and said, "You are a woman's opinionated person. If I don't drink, how can I sell myself well in front of the factory director? Do you know how difficult it is for me? If I don't work hard, how can I climb up? If you want to live a good life, you can't miss any opportunity. Or do you think my efforts are useless? Haha, I know, I know that's what you think. What's the point of my efforts? I don't even have a child. I don't even know who I'm working hard for. My mother is still an old man who always holds me back..."
Mingmei was about to walk out when she heard the words "old immortal". She raised her eyebrows in shock and leaned against the wall, eavesdropping. It was not surprising that Jiang Lu cursed like that, because Aunt Zhou was really meant to Jiang Lu.
But Zhou Qun is Aunt Zhou's biological son.
Aunt Zhou treats Zhou Qun like she holds him in her hands for fear of dropping him, and holds him in her mouth for fear of him melting. Zhou Qun says this? Zhou Qun: “None of you makes me worry-free, you guys…”
Jiang Lu's eyes turned red with guilt, and she whispered, "It's my fault that I didn't give you a child. This is all my fault..."
She lowered her voice and said, "If, if I really can't have a baby, I'll find you a woman..."
Mingmei was furious when she heard this. What the hell is this?!!!
What is Jiang Lu talking about!!! Is she sick!!!
As a woman, Mingmei was very angry, but Zhou Qun, as the beneficiary, was very happy.
But even so, he can pretend.
Zhou Qun's heart moved, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. At this time, he still pretended to be rational and muttered, "What nonsense! I am not that kind of person. Don't think so badly of me."
Jiang Lu: "It's my fault. You're not a child anymore. Others have children, but you don't. I know you feel bad..."
She was also upset. She really hated her useless body. Why couldn't she have a baby? How could a woman not have a baby? Jiang Lu cried and said, "I am sorry for you, and I am sorry for the Zhou family."
Mingmei thought to herself, this Jiang Lu is really a person with a confused mind! She snorted angrily. Coincidentally, Zhou Qun and his just walked to the toilet... Upon hearing the woman's angry wife snort, Zhou Qun and Jiang Lu turned pale. Countless ghost rumors flashed through their minds in an instant. They screamed, "There is a ghost!!! Help!!!"
Run fast!
Mingmei: ???Is there a ghost?
She reacted instantly. Was he talking about her? (End of this chapter)
