Since we're already here, we can't just go back like this, can we?
Finally, I called a locksmith, who opened the door and found a lot of things left inside—useless junk.
As Huang Li entered the room, her high heels were wrapped in a plastic bag. She kicked it a few times before finally getting it off, gritting her teeth in frustration.
She had just finished her postpartum confinement period, so how could she possibly clean? She said, "Whoever lives here should clean."
When her sister-in-law and brother's wife heard this, they both insisted on cleaning, each wanting to take advantage of the situation and neither wanting to watch the other benefit.
They looked at the house; it had three bedrooms and two living rooms, and the bathroom, kitchen, and shower room were spacious. It also had a balcony with good natural light.
Her sister-in-law turned her back and made a phone call to her family: "Bring your bedding and come over quickly, stay here first, then who can kick us out?"
Less than half an hour later, her sister-in-law received a call from home: "My older brother is packing his clothes, what's going on over there?"
Okay, let's play dirty tricks.
The two started fighting inside the house.
Huang Li went over to look, and saw that her younger brother and sister-in-law were also ruthless. They picked up the rickety stool in the corner and lifted it up, indicating that they were serious.
She rolled her eyes and stood to the side, advising, "Stop fighting! It's just a house. Whoever moves in, can't the other person have the other house?"
"No way!" The two, who were fighting fiercely, spoke in unison.
Anshi is equivalent to the former Shenzhen. Everyone wants to seize this opportunity. Big cities offer more opportunities, and people from all over the country gather here. It's lively and prestigious.
Even if it's not for myself, the teachers and education here are excellent, and my children and grandchildren can enjoy a good life. Who wouldn't want to come?
What's there back home? Fewer and fewer people, no one in my family holds an official position, and I'm looked down upon wherever I go.
Huang Li realized that she had done something wrong with good intentions, and pressed her temples tightly: "Then you can all move in. You can squeeze in and live there, or take turns. It's fine either way. Just don't let Lao Jiang find out, or we'll lose this house."
Her sister-in-law gritted her teeth, exchanged a glance with her brother-in-law, and nodded. They would settle this matter privately; her sister-in-law didn't need to worry about it.
I tidied my hair, which had become a mess from the fight, and went downstairs to go home.
The neighborhood isn't big, and everyone knows who's here for the first time. Even the old ladies and aunties by the flowerbeds ask, "Who are you? Who are you looking for?"
Huang Li rolled her eyes and put her hands on her hips: "The people who were taking back the house had some people who wouldn't leave my house before, but now that I need to use it, I have to ask them to leave."
The old lady asked, "Which household?"
Huang Li pointed in the distance: "There."
The old lady and the aunt looked and asked: Which household?
That house looks so familiar, isn't it Zheng Lanxiang's house?
Slowly, it dawned on me that this was probably Jiang Jianli's wife, a woman who had lived for more than half a century. She was adept at speaking to people in a way that suited them perfectly: "When are you moving in? There are many kind people in the neighborhood. If you need anything, just say the word, and we'll help you if we can."
If I can help, I will; if I don't want to help, I can't. I'm very shrewd.
Huang Li knew this was just polite talk, so she pointed to the two family members behind her and said, "These are my family members moving in. The date hasn't been set yet, so they're leaving first."
She turned around, swayed her hips, and walked away.
The old lady pursed her lips, and the people sitting on either side leaned over and started gossiping like bees.
"This person is really not as good as Zheng Lanxiang. She's good-looking, but she's a mistress who rose to power. If it weren't for you speaking up for me, I wouldn't have bothered with her."
“I’ve never heard anyone say that she’s giving away her house to her family. I was wondering why Zheng Lanxiang left so suddenly. It’s good that she left, otherwise I would feel bad seeing my old friend being bullied.”
......
There were all sorts of opinions, none of them were good. If one's foundation is not upright, even an emperor will be criticized.
Everyone present was a first wife in their family, and even those who had remarried had entered into the family legally and openly, unlike Huang Li who secretly and forcibly snatched men, acting like she was in a brothel.
"I'll call Lanxiang and tell her." The older woman took out her phone and called out, "Big boy, call Lanxiang."
"Da Hai" was a name the eldest sister asked her family to give to the AI on her phone. It was her first daughter, whom she had given birth to when she was young. She starved to death at the age of three, and she had been thinking about her for the rest of her life.
After the call connected, the older woman asked, "What are you busy with?"
Zheng Lanxiang leaned back on the sofa to rest her back: "After moving, I still have to tidy up. I'm so tired. What are you busy with?"
She knew these old friends well; they wouldn't call unless there was a reason.
“Jiang Jianli’s wife is here. She wants to give the house to her family. She just passed by us and said that you were staying here and wouldn’t leave, but now she’s the one kicking you out.”
The phone call was on speakerphone, and Jiang Shuyin heard it too. She straightened up with a blank expression.
After exchanging a few words, Zheng Lanxiang hung up the phone and cursed, "That person is a real jerk. I'll slap her a few times and she'll behave."
Jiang Shuyin didn't speak; she was lost in thought.
With only a few days left before her mission, should she leave her child at home?
This is a long trip; it will take at least three months to get back, and possibly up to a year.
Due to the special nature of her mission, Jiang Shu signed a 50-year confidentiality agreement. She was to go to the African desert to find the newly detected element Uo, an element that appeared out of nowhere, like a cell that suddenly proliferated on Earth. This discovery shocked many people.
There is much speculation in academia that this element will lead them to higher levels of technology, just as food was the lifeblood of ancient armies, oil was the lifeblood of industry, and uranium was the lifeblood of the nuclear industry.
Everyone firmly believes that the new element uo will be the lifeblood of the new era, and all countries want to find this element in advance.
Let's not talk about what to do after we find it; we need to find it first.
