Chapter 40 Xiao Ge is really tough, Xiao Ge is really a man
The yard was silent and quiet. Several people stared at Jiang Tang with cautious expressions.
Jiang Tang sat on the stool with a calm face, looking up at them, with the corners of his lips curled up, "Look at what I'm doing."
"Leizi, Hetian, please tell us about your experience during your time in Pengcheng."
Wang Qilei and Zhang Hetian looked at each other. Wang Qilei pushed the other person and gestured to Zhang Hetian.
Zhang Hetian sighed lightly, then smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, when we went to Pengcheng, we met a thief. Brother Xiao should have told you that he wanted to steal something you made, but we caught him. After that, he voluntarily took us to his house and showed us the way. He also helped us a lot during our stay in Pengcheng."
Wen Juaner poured him a glass of water to moisten his throat.
Zhang Hetian took a sip and said, "Pengcheng is indeed developing faster than us. There are many people looking for jobs, most of whom are from other places. We spent a few days looking at all the factories there. Brother Xiao even went into a factory to observe the work in the workshop."
“In short, I learned a lot.”
"This time I bought the goods after visiting so many factories. I also wanted to come back and do it myself, so I was a little bolder and tried to see if it would work."
Wang Qilei also echoed, "Yes, Brother Xiao said that you told him that he can do other things and that he doesn't have to be a laborer for the rest of his life. Brother Hetian and I listened to him. It's no big deal for three brothers to do it together."
Jiang Tangqian smiled and nodded, seeming to be amused.
Wen Juan asked curiously, "Is Pengcheng fun? Are the people there the same as us?"
Wang Qilei smiled and touched his wife's head. "People are no different. They have two eyes and one mouth just like us."
Wenjuan frowned and tapped his head. Is that what she meant? Really.
Wang Qilei's eyes were full of smiles. "This time we went there and broadened our horizons. That's why we dared to be bold and try to make a name for ourselves."
"Brother Xiao probably wants to expand our market as soon as possible, so he wants to go to the capital as soon as possible."
He glanced at Jiang Tang and explained to her in a subtle way.
The reason why Xiao Ge wants to go to the capital as soon as possible.
Besides, my sister-in-law will definitely return to the capital in the future, and Brother Xiao is a little anxious now.
Several people's eyes were vaguely on Jiang Tang, trying to discern her emotions.
Jiang Tang stood up with a calm face and walked towards the kitchen. "You guys just came back, you must be hungry. Don't go back for a while, let's eat together."
Wang Qilei and the others looked at his sister-in-law's back and sighed softly.
Wang Qilei looked at Zhang Hetian and said, "Brother Hetian, didn't you see that when you just mentioned Brother Xiao, my sister-in-law's face turned even uglier. She must be really angry."
He was a little worried about Xiao Ge.
Zhang Hetian was helpless. He had noticed it, but he also had no other choice.
Wen Juan frowned, "Xiao brother is really something. He knew that my sister-in-law and Chuyang were waiting for him at home, but he went to the capital alone and didn't even tell my sister-in-law about such a big thing."
She stared at Zhang Hetian and said, "If you do this, I will be angry too."
After he finished speaking, his face became gloomy. The more he looked at the two people who came back, the more he disliked them. He rolled his eyes and followed Jiang Tang into the kitchen, hoping to avoid seeing anything.
Aunt Guimei also entered the house.
The two men in the yard touched their noses awkwardly.
Wang Qilei whispered, "Brother Hetian, let's secretly call Brother Xiao tomorrow to tell him that sister-in-law is really angry. It will be over when Brother Xiao comes back."
Zhang Hetian nodded and said, "Okay, let's keep it a secret from my sister-in-law and let Xiaoge explain it to her himself."
Having said that, he has never seen Brother Xiao coax anyone, so he doesn't know if it will be successful.
"Alas, I can only pray for our Brother Xiao and hope that he will be blessed." Wang Qile put his hands together and prayed to the sky.
"...But Brother Hetian, Brother Xiao is in the capital now, his whereabouts are unknown, and we don't have his phone number! We can only wait for Brother Xiao to call back."
It's such a big thing, and he just remembered it!
He wailed softly and glanced at Zhang Hetian, who had no expression on his face. "It seems like Brother Xiao is going to die."
Now I am alone in the capital, unable to be contacted, and my whereabouts are unknown. This situation is worrying!
After hearing what he said, Zhang Hetian also reacted, was stunned for a moment, and sighed softly.
Brother Xiao can only wish him good luck. All they can do is to say good things about him in front of his sister-in-law, openly or secretly.
The two of them had just returned, so they had to be rewarded anyway. Although Jiang Tang was in a bad mood, he still planned to kill a chicken for them and stew it for them to eat as a welcome treat.
Wang Qilei immediately went over to help and took the chicken from Jiang Tang. "Sister-in-law, Xiao Ge is not here, so leave it to me. I will make sure it is clean for you."
Jiang Tang raised his eyebrows and handed the hen to him.
Wang Qilei slaughtered the chicken skillfully, plucked its feathers with boiling water, and after cleaning out the internal organs, handed it to Jiang Tang.
Jiang Tang made a stew of chicken and potatoes and fried a few other dishes.
They waited until Wang Qilei and Zhang Hetian brought the food to the table before sitting down together.
Jiang Tangyang smiled and said, "You've been gone for so long, it must be hard. Eat more today. Welcome back."
Staring at the large table of rich dishes in front of them, Wang Qilei and Zhang Hetian felt sour and bloated in their hearts, "Sister-in-law, I really trouble you."
Jiang Tang shook his head and the meal began.
Wang Qilei and Zhang Hetian were very satisfied with the meal.
Zhang Hetian looked at his daughter-in-law next to him and whispered, "Juan'er, is it okay for you to do it with your sister-in-law?"
Wen Juan smiled and nodded, "Well, at first my sister-in-law taught me how to do it, and then she didn't hide anything from me. After I learned how to do it, she taught me."
Her face was full of gratitude. "Just tell me where there is a girl as nice and generous as my sister-in-law. My sister-in-law can guide me to do this. I will be grateful to her for the rest of my life."
She tilted her head to look at Zhang Hetian, frowning and saying, "In the past, I always thought that Brother Xiao and our sister-in-law were a good match. Brother Xiao was a good person, and he always took you and Leizi with him whenever he had something to do. Now I see that Brother Xiao is not thorough in his work, and he is not worthy of such a good sister-in-law."
Zhang Hetian was somewhat helpless, "Brother Xiao also wanted to come back to see his sister-in-law earlier, we can't blame him entirely."
Go to the capital and get things settled quickly. It would be better to come back earlier.
Wen Juan glanced at Jiang Tang quietly and whispered, "You don't know, these past few days, sister-in-law has been sending gifts and money, and she always talks about Xiao Ge. Since you came back today and Xiao Ge didn't come back, have you heard sister-in-law mention Xiao Ge at all?"
Zhang Hetian paused and replied, "No."
He could only worry about Xiao Ge. His sister-in-law looked gentle, and if she got angry, Xiao Ge would be difficult to appease.
Zhang Hetian suddenly felt a little worried because his brother Xiao was still not good at coaxing others.
If this is a tit-for-tat situation, and the person is not coaxed back, my sister-in-law will probably be even angrier.
He suddenly felt that if Brother Xiao wanted to please his sister-in-law, his task would be particularly heavy.
Wang Qilei's stomach was about to burst. He wiped his mouth and looked at Jiang Tang, "Sister-in-law, we plan to set up a stall in the county town tomorrow. After that batch of goods is sold, we will see whether Brother Xiao comes back first or we sell out that batch first."
Jiang Tang curled his lips slightly, blinked and looked a little puzzled, "Where are your goods?"
Wang Qilei said happily, "It's in the city. We have to rush to the city tomorrow morning before the morning market starts to set up the stall. If the business gets bigger and bigger, Brother Xiao said he plans to rent a shop in the city. Maybe he can open a supply of goods from the capital in the future, and then we can open a factory of our own."
Jiang Tang nodded. "Nowadays, all kinds of things are in short supply. Your things should be easy to sell."
Wang Qilei touched his head and said, "Thank you for your good wishes, sister-in-law."
After finishing the meal, several people went home together. Today, Wang Qilei and Zhang Hetian came back, so Aunt Gui Mei and Wen Juan did not stay to work overtime and went home together early.
Jiang Tang saw them out the door, looked at the groups of people, his eyes dimmed slightly, turned around and closed the door, his hand held by the young man.
Qin Chuyang looked up at Jiang Tang, "Sister-in-law, are you unhappy?"
Jiang Tang bent down and pinched his little nose, frowning, "I'm not unhappy."
Seeing that she didn't say anything, the little guy pouted and looked very anxious.
Jiang Tang smiled and pinched the little boy's face, then took him into the kitchen.
Wash the kid's hair.
After I finished washing up, I half-lay on a chair, staring at the night sky with lifeless eyes. I waited until my hair was completely dry before returning to the house.
Qin Chuyang lay on the bed, looking at Jiang Tang with his big eyes, blinking and whispering, "Sister-in-law, can we go call my brother tomorrow?"
Hearing this, Jiang Tang was slightly stunned, and the corners of her lips slowly smoothed. She looked at the young man and said in a low voice, "Chu Yang misses your brother?"
Qin Chuyang's face was full of knots, he just wanted to make his sister-in-law happy.
Hearing Jiang Tang ask him this, he nodded obediently, "Yeah."
Jiang Tang touched the boy's head and said, "Then tomorrow you can talk to your brother Lei Zi and brother He Tian, and they will take you to call your brother, okay?"
Qin Chuyang's eyes widened, "Sister-in-law, why don't you go?"
Jiang Tang paused while touching the boy's head, and said casually with a slight smile, "Sister-in-law doesn't have your brother's phone number now, and Chuyang, didn't you forget that sister-in-law still has things to do at home, and your sister Wenjuan and aunt Guimei can't handle it alone."
The sister-in-law's voice was gentle and pleasant, but Qin Chuyang still frowned, then stared at Jiang Tang and said with a pout, "Then I won't go either. I'll go after my brother calls me."
Jiang Tang patted the kid's head gently, "Good boy, go to sleep."
The little guy nodded obediently, closed his eyes, pouted his mouth and slowly fell asleep.
Jiang Tang took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes.
It’s no big deal. Qin Xiao can go wherever he wants. It has nothing to do with her.
There was no need to tell her, she didn't care at all.
The girl suppressed her thoughts and fell asleep in a daze, with the corners of her lips pressed flat, maintaining the gentle mood of the whole day, trying not to let others see it.
In my dream, I saw a man, frowning and swearing, then his anger subsided, his brows relaxed, and then I fell into a deep sleep.
Early the next morning, Wenjuan and Aunt Guimei came over.
Jiang Tang worked with them and said with a smile, "Juan'er, have Hetian and the others gone to the city?"
Wen Juan kept moving her hands, smiling and nodding, "Yes, I went there early in the morning before dawn, and I was very excited. I don't know if they can succeed."
"Definitely no problem, those things won't have trouble selling now." Jiang Tang said this not to comfort Wen Juan. The market is like this now, and if nothing unexpected happens, there will definitely be a lot of buyers for their batch of things.
Wen Juan nodded, "Since you said so, sister-in-law, I feel relieved."
Zhang Guimei on the other side also nodded happily, "That's right, with Tang girl's words, I feel reassured."
Jiang Tang felt a little embarrassed by what they said. It was originally determined by the social environment and the market, and she just said that.
And the batch of goods they got in Pengcheng must be good. Good things will always have people willing to pay for them.
"Auntie, Juan'er, do you want to go and see how they sell goods?" Jiang Tang suddenly spoke with a smile.
Wen Juan blinked and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, don't tell me, I'm really curious."
"Hetian has never done this kind of work before. I didn't even know he could buy clothes, haha."
Aunt Gui Mei also said happily, "That's right, my kid is the same, he has always been following Qin Xiao around since he was little, how could he sell anything? I'm also curious whether the kid can accomplish this."
Jiang Tang was happy, "Juan'er, Auntie, I've decided. Let's take a day off today and go to the city to see how the two brothers are doing."
Her words made Wenjuan and Aunt Guimei a little tempted, but they couldn't let go of the work in their hands.
Jiang Tang stepped forward and took everything from the two of them, and decided directly, "Auntie, Juan'er, you can make money anytime, don't you want to see Hetian and Leizi grow up?"
"It's their first time setting up a stall to sell things, we have to go and take a look."
She said so, and Wenjuan and Aunt Guimei also agreed, "Okay, since Miss Tang said so, let's go to the city and take a look."
The matter was decided. Jiang Tang immediately took Qin Chuyang with him, closed the gate, and the four of them left the house and walked towards the village entrance.
As soon as they arrived at the village entrance, the gazes they cast at them became more and more fiery.
Wenjuan and Zhang Guimei were almost stared out of their holes by this group of people. They also knew that these people thought they had got a great bargain by being able to have such a good job in the village, and many of them were very greedy.
However, Jiang Tang gave them confidence, and they no longer felt embarrassed. They relied on their own labor to work hard every day and did not let Jiang Tang down. They got into the car with their heads held high and sat next to Jiang Tang.
As soon as we got in the car, an auntie couldn't help asking Jiang Tang, "Comrade Jiang Tang, can you handle your work? My auntie's little girl doesn't study anymore, she has plenty of strength, she's more capable than Juan'er, see if you need any help, even if the salary is a little lower, that's fine."
Jiang Tang had a kind face and answered her nicely, "Auntie, I really don't need anyone right now. It's better for you to read more books."
The aunt frowned, "What's the point of studying? You still have to get married and have children in the end. After a girl studies, you can see which jobs are suitable for her. It's better for her to study less and do some housework at home to add some strength. Studying makes people stupid, and in the end they know nothing."
"Look at Wenjuan. She didn't even get a few years of education, but now she has a good job thanks to your kindness."
As she spoke she added a few words to flatter Jiang Tang, being very good at flattering the powerful and looking down on the weak.
Jiang Tang grinned, "Auntie, I learned all this because I studied, and I made money using these things."
"If studying is really bad, then you should tell your son to stop studying and come home to farm with you."
Aunt Guimei couldn't stand it and said, "The girl doesn't study or studies poorly, but if she gives birth to a son she will just send him to school."
Jiang Tang blinked and shook his head gently.
It was unnecessary for her to say so much. In fact, she knew what was good and what was bad. She just found a reason to convince herself and the people around her, and she started to believe it as she spoke.
The auntie shut up and said nothing.
At the same time, the tricycle started to bump out with a rumbling sound.
Jiang Tang carried Qin Chuyang all the way to the county gate.
A group of people walked quickly towards the market, passed through the vegetable market at the top and went down, and saw the stalls set up by Wang Qilei and Zhang Hetian at the bottom.
There were more than just the two of them setting up stalls, there were several stalls in that row.
But their stall was packed with people, and there was a constant stream of people, so they had no trouble selling their products.
Jiang Tang and the others walked down and stood outside the stall.
Jiang Tang glanced at the stall next to him and realized that the styles on their stall were the most popular at the moment, so there were quite a few customers.
The two of them were so busy that sweat broke out on their faces.
Wang Qilei helped the customers pack their food, and Zhang Hetian collected the money. They worked together in an orderly and tacit understanding.
They had no intention of disturbing the two people's work, so they just watched from outside.
Zhang Guimei watched her son sweating. He was obviously very tired, but the smile on his face became brighter and brighter. Misty eyes appeared in his cloudy eyes. Her boy has really grown up.
She was mesmerized.
Jiang Tang whispered, "It's almost noon. They are probably too busy to eat. Bring them some food. They can eat when they are not busy anymore."
Wen Juan nodded, "Okay, then sister-in-law, I'll go buy them some food first, you guys wait here, I'll go alone."
Jiang Tang nodded and Wen Juan left.
Jiang Tang held Qin Chuyang's hand, and stood on the side with Aunt Gui Mei, trying not to disturb the guests.
As Jiang Tang looked at the stalls, he discovered that there was another reason why the couple was doing so good business. Most of the new clothes in the stalls next to them were simply unpacked and placed in front of them. They were brand new, but had not been processed in any way.
Zhang Hetian and Wang Qilei got a small iron from somewhere and connected it to electricity from the small shop next door. Not only did they make the clothes on the stall smooth and tidy, but they also didn't bother people to use the iron to iron wrinkled clothes that were not on the stall. Their service was excellent.
Customers came in waves, and gradually the number of customers decreased, and most of the clothes on the stalls were gone.
Jiang Tang then led Qin Chuyang over.
"Hello, welcome. Let me know what style you want. I can recommend it to you."
A shadow fell on Wang Qilei, who was bending over to iron new clothes without raising his head to speak.
"Sister-in-law, why are you here?"
It was Zhang Hetian next to him who spoke.
Wang Qilei raised his head and looked at his mother and sister-in-law standing in front of the stall.
Grinning and laughing foolishly.
"Sister-in-law, mother, you are here."
Zhang Guimei's eyes were filled with relief. "Your sister-in-law gave us a day off today, saying that this was your first time setting up a stall, so she brought us here to have a look."
She raised her hand, and Wang Qilei took the initiative to rub his head against his mother's hand.
Zhang Guimei said, "Are you tired, son?"
Wang Qilei grinned and said, "Not tired!"
Jiang Tang looked at Zhang Hetian and said, "Juan'er went to buy lunch for you. I thought you wouldn't have much time to eat, so she should be back soon."
Wang Qilei was wearing simple work clothes and had a cloth bag wallet on his waist, in which was the money he earned from selling clothes.
Listening to Jiang Tang's words, he closed his wallet and nodded.
After a while, Wenjuan came back and handed them the food she had bought for them.
The two of them then began to eat voraciously. They were so hungry that their mouths were full.
Seeing that the two of them were doing a good job, Jiang Tang and the others prepared to leave.
At this time, another customer came to the stall.
Seeing the two people eating, Jiang Tang stepped forward to entertain them. Unexpectedly, he found that the person was an acquaintance.
"Comrade Jiang Tang, is this your stall?" It was a staff member in the post office. Jiang Tang talked to Qin Xiao from time to time and was familiar with the man.
She smiled and said, "You can take a look at what style you want."
The staff member picked out a pair of bell-bottom pants after a while, handed them to Jiang Tang, and said with a smile, "Your husband called again. They were supposed to notify you when they delivered the package after lunch, but they didn't expect you to come to the county. Go over and call your husband back later."
Qin Xiao called back?
Jiang Tang blinked, his face calm, and said softly, "Thank you."
The staff shook his head and said, "What's there to thank me for? If you want to thank me, just give me a discount on these pants."
"We'll definitely give you a bargain. Just give us the wholesale price."
Wang Qilei was eating and listening to her. He couldn't help swallowing the food in his mouth, stood up and smiled happily.
The deal was done quickly and the staff took the clothes and left.
Wang Qilei looked at Jiang Tang and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, Brother Xiao called you and came back. You should hurry over. We are watching here."
Jiang Tang took out the pants from the stall and looked at them for a few seconds, then said calmly, "He must be missing Chuyang. Leizi, take Chuyang to the post office later and call him back."
!!!
Wang Qilei's heart was filled with alarm bells!
Sister-in-law, you don’t even want to answer Brother Lian Xiao’s call.
Things are a bit serious.
He looked at Zhang Hetian beside him for help.
Zhang Hetian moved his mouth and said, "Well, sister-in-law, there will be many customers soon. Lei Zi and I are still busy with the stall, so we can't leave. Besides, Brother Xiao must have called you, so it's not appropriate for us to go over."
Jiang Tang frowned, "I'll help Lei Zi watch the stall for a while. Lei Zi, don't you think I can do it?"
How could Wang Qilei dare to say such a thing?
He nodded with a tearful face, "Okay, sister-in-law, I'll take Chuyang to call Brother Xiao back later."
I must tell Brother Xiao how angry my sister-in-law is, so that Brother Xiao can quickly think of a way to apologize to my sister-in-law.
Wang Qilei finished his meal in a few big mouthfuls and pulled Qin Chuyang out of the stall.
Qin Chuyang glanced at his sister-in-law, and Jiang Tang bent down and rubbed his head, "Chuyang, your brother called you, Brother Leizi will take you with him."
Qin Chuyang frowned. His sister-in-law seemed unhappy. He didn't want to make her unhappy, so he nodded obediently and left with Wang Qile.
Jiang Tang was not lying when she said she would help look after the stall, and she greeted every customer who came later with a smile.
Zhang Hetian, on the other hand, was a little absent-minded.
His brother Xiao, tsk tsk, I’m afraid he’s going to have a hard time.
Wang Qilei brought Qin Chuyang into the post office. His face, which was bright and sunny in the morning, was now full of worry.
He entered the post office, and the staff member recognized Qin Chuyang, who was with him, and looked at him, "Why didn't Comrade Jiang Tang come over?"
Wang Qilei was sweating profusely and he rubbed his head in embarrassment. "My sister-in-law is busy and it's not convenient for her to come over."
The staff nodded and said, "Okay, I'll call you first."
Wang Qilei nodded.
After the staff made the call, I gave up my seat to them and went to do other work.
Wang Qilei took the receiver and put it to his ear, saying in a stuttering voice, "Xiao...Brother Xiao."
The man on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, and his voice turned cold, "Lei Zi."
"What about her?"
Wang Qilei slapped his face, "Ahem, Brother Xiao, my sister-in-law...she didn't have time, so she asked me to bring Chuyang over."
…
Wang Qilei couldn't stand the suffocating atmosphere any more. "Brother Xiao, you...why don't you talk to Chuyang first? He misses you."
Wang Qile handed the phone to Qin Chuyang, and squatted aside with his hands clasped, thinking of a solution. How should he tell Brother Xiao that his sister-in-law was angry and asked him to coax her!
Tsk, I should have asked Brother Hetian to come earlier. He has never been in a relationship, so how would he know how to coax someone?
Wang Qilei racked his brains.
Qin Chuyang held the phone in his two little hands, and said softly, "Brother, when will you come back?"
Hearing his brother's voice, Qin Xiao's tone slowed down a little, "In a few days, my brother will be back."
"Qin Chuyang, what is your sister-in-law busy with?"
I was so busy that I didn't even have time to call him.
Thinking of this, the man noticed something strange in his eyes, and then frowned and quickly waved his brows away.
Qin Chuyang said obediently, "Sister-in-law is selling clothes for Brother Lei Zi, and asked Brother Lei Zi to bring me over to call you."
Qin Xiao realized something almost immediately.
Then I heard my brother's voice coming from the receiver, "Brother, sister-in-law is very unhappy."
He wanted to make his sister-in-law happy, and even though she didn't tell him, he knew it.
Qin Xiao frowned, "Why is your sister-in-law unhappy?"
He asked cautiously.
Qin Chuyang frowned, a little confused, "Brother, I don't know, but I saw that my sister-in-law was unhappy when Brother Lei Zi and Brother He Tian came back."
The boy couldn't explain it, but he knew his sister-in-law's mood.
The man was silent for a moment, and his voice suddenly became a little hoarse, "Qin Chuyang, be good, give the phone to your brother Lei Zi first, and I will talk to him."
The young man nodded obediently and handed the receiver to Wang Qile who was still squatting on the side with his hands clasped.
Wang Qilei's heart skipped a beat. He took the phone in a daze and said in a trembling voice, "Brother Xiao."
Qin Xiao said in a cold tone, "Wang Qilei
Memory Birch
, tell me what’s going on.”
Wang Qilei swallowed his saliva and said in a hesitant voice, "Brother Xiao, it's just..."
He swallowed and said, "I'm back with Brother Hetian. My sister-in-law was very happy and thought you came back with us."
"But you didn't come back. After my sister-in-law found out, she never mentioned you again and looked very angry."
After saying the beginning, it seemed that he could speak more easily afterwards. Wang Qilei said quickly, "I heard from Sister Juan that when we were not back, sister-in-law talked about you every three sentences, but after we came back, sister-in-law has not mentioned you at all. She must be very angry."
"Brother Xiao, someone at home has always been thinking about you. Knowing that you didn't come back, they are inevitably a little disappointed."
Listening to Wang Qilei's voice, the man's eyes became dark and his hands hanging at his sides were clenched tightly.
He found that he was a little afraid to think about the disappointed look on the woman's face.
He closed his eyes, his eyes were as black as ink, and his voice was hoarse, "Did you... tell her that I came to the capital?"
Wang Qilei whispered, "Brother Xiao, I have said all this to Brother Tian, but when you are mentioned, my sister-in-law's face becomes even colder, as if she doesn't want to hear your name at all."
Then he felt something was wrong, and immediately added, "Sister-in-law is just too angry. You went to the capital without saying a word, and didn't tell her."
He was silent for a moment. "On the day we returned, it seemed that my sister-in-law had just called you from the city."
The call definitely didn't go through, and I was so disappointed when I came back. It was only natural for my sister-in-law to be angry.
Qin Xiao's heart seemed to be disobeying its master's orders. It hurt so much that his heart kept contracting, as if a sharp blade was stabbing into his heart and strangling him, making him feel excruciating pain.
How could he not understand the feeling of having your hopes dashed?
The man's rough palm tightly grasped his heart, his brows tightened.
He was breathing heavily in pain, his throat rolling and his voice hoarse.
"She should be mad at me."
Wang Qilei said anxiously, "Brother Xiao, you... have to find a way to comfort your sister-in-law."
He paused and stammered, "Sister-in-law is not a girl who makes trouble for no reason. She must be really sad this time."
"When we left home, my sister-in-law made so many things for us, and she also tried her best to hide money in your backpack. She also sent things and money to you later, and she also had to take care of Chuyang at home."
The more he talked, the more he felt that his sister-in-law was really wronged.
"Brother Xiao, I always thought that you and sister-in-law might not be that close, but now looking back on everything, sister-in-law is really good."
Of course he knew how good that woman was; no one knew it better than him.
The man clenched his teeth, a sweet taste oozed from his throat, and he choked as he spoke, "Leizi, I'll wait for you here. Go ask her to come over and take Qin Chuyang back."
Wang Qilei frowned, "Brother Xiao, what if my sister-in-law doesn't come?"
Qin Xiao closed his eyes. No matter how he thought, he could only think of the things that women like. "You said, I found a big refrigerator in the capital. Not only a refrigerator, but also the oven and electric fan that she kept talking about. I bought them all for her and asked her to come to me to discuss what she wants."
Wang Qilei was silent for a moment, then agreed obediently.
Brother Xiao is a real man!
This mouth is really hard!
I would rather buy this and that without being able to say sorry.
He was convinced.
He told Qin Chuyang to wait for him at the post office and asked the staff to help watch for a while. Then he ran back to the stall without wasting a second. Fortunately, the stall was not crowded with customers.
He ran to Jiang Tang breathlessly.
Pointing in the direction of the post office, he panted and said, "Sister-in-law...Sister-in-law, Chuyang is still at the post office. Go back and pick him up."
Jiang Tang: ...
She opened her mouth, somewhat speechless.
"You came back by yourself? Why didn't you call Chuyang back?"
Wang Qilei didn't dare to look her in the eye and just wanted to complete his task.
"Ahem...Sister-in-law, just go and pick up Chuyang."
"By the way, Brother Xiao told me that he saw the large refrigerator, electric fan, and something called an oven that you wanted to buy in the capital, and he plans to buy them for you. You can go over and discuss with him first to see what you want to buy."
Jiang Tang: ...
It turns out that the kid was a hostage who was deliberately left behind.
This brother is really hard-hearted.
Jiang Tang originally didn't plan to go.
But she had to say that the big refrigerator and oven that Lei Zi mentioned really excited her, thinking that she would have fresh ingredients every day.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Tang curled her lips and thought, it would be a waste if she didn't want it. She would bring Chu Yang back after the talk, and she didn't care what the man said.
Thinking of this, the girl was convinced by herself, clapped her hands lightly, raised her chin, and said, "Then you take care of the stall yourself, I'll go over first."
She agreed!
After realizing this, Wang Qilei immediately replaced Jiang Tang's position, bent down and extended his hand, "Sister-in-law, please."
The attitude is quite attentive.
Jiang Tang couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, and left the stall and walked towards the post office.
Several people looked at Jiang Tang's back.
Zhang Hetian sighed softly, "I hope Brother Xiao can coax his sister-in-law."
Wen Juan frowned, "Humph, sister-in-law shouldn't compromise so easily, otherwise Xiao Ge will dare to do it again next time."
Wang Qilei sighed with his hands behind his back, looking very mature, and shook his head heavily, "I think it will be difficult."
He stared at Zhang Hetian and said with a pout, "Brother Hetian, you don't know that our Brother Xiao is really hard-nosed. It's obvious that he was at fault in this matter. A good guy can solve the problem with a simple "I'm sorry", but our Brother Xiao just won't say anything and is just playing around."
Their brother Xiao is just tough-talking, tougher than steel.
Several people sighed heavily at the same time, and they couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Jiang Tang walked to the post office. Qin Chuyang was holding the receiver in her little hand. When she saw her, she immediately shouted, "Sister-in-law, come quickly."
Jiang Tang paused and walked over.
Qin Chuyang immediately handed the phone to her and said softly into the phone, "Brother, sister-in-law is here, talk to her."
Qin Xiao held his breath, his chest slightly stiff, and listened quietly to the receiver.
Jiang Tang took the call, blinked, and listened to the silence on the line. He frowned and said impatiently, "Qin Xiao."
The girl spoke in a soft voice, and her tone was definitely not good.
Qin Xiao's heart suddenly relaxed and he uttered a low "hmm".
Jiang Tang snorted, "What do you mean, didn't you see someone selling a big refrigerator? Tell me about it."
Listening to the man's voice, Jiang Tang felt a surge of bitterness in her heart. She bit her teeth lightly and blinked her eyelids repeatedly.
This man is so annoying.
Qin Xiao whispered, "Yes, there are. They are imported. I will bring them all to you when I return."
His thin lips moved slightly, and his voice was hoarse, "Jiang Tang, if you want anything else, I will bring it to you when I come back."
Jiang Tang was silent for a moment, his eyebrows drooped slightly, and he wrinkled his nose. "No, it's not a problem."
She didn't know why she was like this. She just felt angry and uncomfortable.
She was upset, but she didn't care. She didn't want the man who was more than a thousand kilometers away to have an easy life.
After she finished speaking, there was silence and neither of them spoke.
Jiang Tang moved his lips, his fingertips constantly fiddling with the phone line, he exhaled lightly, and whispered, "If there's nothing else, I'm going to hang up."
She moved her knuckles slightly while holding the receiver, and a hoarse man's voice came through, somewhat distorted through the phone line.
"Jiang Tang."
"I'll be back in a few days. I'll call you when I get back, okay?"
The man's voice was almost coaxing and showing weakness, "From now on... I'll tell you where I'm going."
Jiang Tang pursed her lips, and her originally sour heart seemed to be filled with a hint of sweetness, which was both sour and sweet and made her eyes sour.
Jiang Tang said in a sweet voice, "Remember to bring back my refrigerator and oven when you come back, otherwise..."
She wrinkled her nose, "Otherwise I won't give you any food."
Qin Xiao's voice was filled with a rough smile as he responded in a low voice.
"good."
Listening to the man's laughter, Jiang Tang felt a little annoyed. "What are you laughing at? Is there anything else? If not, I'm really dead."
The little girl seemed to have finally calmed down for a while. Qin Xiao suppressed his smile and spoke in a low and magnetic voice, "Well, one last thing."
"You guys...wait for me to come back."
Jiang Tang's ears felt numb, and he snorted impatiently, "I know, it's so annoying!"
After saying that, he quickly hung up the phone, lowered the corners of his lips, frowned hard, and then walked out of the post office with little Tuanzi.
