Sheng Anning thought about the conversation between Zhou Shixun and Wen Changshan outside. She thought Wen Changshan was single, so she turned around and asked Zhou Shixun, "Then those words you just said to Wen Changshan were said outside. Did they stimulate him too much?"
Zhou Shixun shook his head: "No, he doesn't care about this."
Sheng An Ning didn't quite agree with this. Her own family was in ruins, so how could she not envy others for having happy families?
Zhou Chaoyang was not familiar with Wen Changshan, and was not very interested in this topic. Instead, he was interested in the dishes outside: "Brother, did you make the dishes outside? You pulled out all the dishes before."
Zhou Shixun hummed, and Zhou Chaoyang exclaimed: "Wang Xianglan actually returned the vegetable field to you? Before, I heard people say that she is a bad person and likes to take advantage of you. She said nice things when she wants to use you, but if you want to take things back, she will turn hostile immediately. It's not a good thing anymore."
Zhou Shixun was quite puzzled: "You have quite a lot of free time every day, and you still have time to gossip around."
Apart from being able to recognize who his neighbors were, he never chatted with them much and had no idea of their temperaments or personalities.
I feel that these have nothing to do with him.
Zhou Chaoyang raised his eyebrows with some pride: "Of course I have to care about them. I am also helping my sister-in-law to get to know the neighbors in advance so that she won't be fooled."
Sheng Anning burst into laughter: "What you said makes sense, then analyze it for me."
Zhou Chaoyang chuckled, and then began to list the neighbors upstairs and around to Sheng Anning: "Most of them are good, except Wang Xianglan who likes to take advantage. The couple upstairs from you don't have a good relationship and often fight. You can often hear the sound of things being thrown. The people on the third floor are doing research and are usually not at home. As for Yuan Yuqin in the unit next door, you will know when you see her. She dresses too ostentatiously and is too conspicuous in the family compound."
Sheng Anning nodded: "Well, I met Yuan Yuqin today, and I think it's okay. After all, everyone loves beauty."
Zhou Chaoyang shook his head: "Sister-in-law, I know it's wrong to judge people by appearance, but you will know after you get to know them for a few days. I am not talking nonsense."
Zhou Shixun glanced at Zhou Chaoyang and said, "Hurry up and eat. Go home early after dinner. You'd better not ask about other people's family affairs, and don't go out to gossip."
Zhou Chaoyang stuck out his tongue, said "oh" obediently, and then focused on eating.
Zhou Shixun only had two days of rest. The next morning, he got up, had breakfast, and hurried to work.
Sheng An Ning couldn't get up. After meeting again after a long separation, she always had to be trained by Zhou Shixun, who was in good health. In her depression, she couldn't help but think that this person who trained every day was different.
When I woke up, I didn't know what time it was, but I heard someone talking outside the window. The three children were too quiet.
Sheng An Ning calmed down for a while, got up, changed her clothes and went out. She didn't see the three children in the house, but she heard Zhou Hongyun chatting with someone outside.
She went to look at the window and saw three little ones digging in the newly turned soil, while Zhou Hongyun was chatting with two women who were about her age.
From the expressions of the three people, it can be seen that they are probably chatting about some gossip.
After washing up, I went to the kitchen. There were hot buns and tea eggs in the rice cooker, and a small dish of pickles on the table.
Sheng An Ning was not in a hurry and ate breakfast slowly. She vaguely heard the women's voices, and it seemed that they mentioned the vegetable garden.
After a while, Zhou Hongyun came back with her three children and said goodbye to the other party in a loud voice.
When she entered the room, she whispered to her three children: "Mom is still sleeping, you should keep your voice down, and drink water after washing your hands."
An An also imitated her aunt and whispered: "Mom is a lazy bug. She doesn't even get up when the sun is shining on her butt."
Sheng An Ning walked over with a smile on her face: "Little girl, who do you say is the lazy bug?"
An An looked up and saw her mother, she giggled and rushed over, "Mom, An An didn't say anything about you. An An said that if she can't get up, she is a lazy bug, but if mom gets up, she is not."
Sheng An Ning smiled and pinched An An's little face: "Little girl, your mouth is quite sweet, go wash your hands quickly."
Zhou Hongyun was also surprised that Sheng Anning woke up: "Why didn't you sleep a little longer? You didn't get enough rest on the road these days. Did we talk too loudly outside? Did we disturb you?"
Sheng An Ning shook her head: "No, where do the two aunts outside live?"
While Zhou Hongyun was taking her child to wash his hands, she said, "The people from the opposite building have their vegetable garden right next to ours. They came over to tidy up the garden and we chatted for a while."
"They were all quite surprised that we could get the vegetable field back, but they talked a lot about Wang Xianglan. However, I didn't respond and just listened to them. After all, we just got here and don't know who these people are. If I say something wrong and they spread it, they will think I'm a gossipmonger. It will cause trouble for you and Shi Xun later."
Zhou Hongyun is very clear about this aspect.
Sheng Anning nodded: "That's right, we just need to listen."
Zhou Hongyun wiped the children's hands, poured boiled water into their small teacups, and asked the three children to sit on small stools to drink. He went over to continue gossiping with Sheng Anning: "This Wang Xianglan is well-known in this area for being overbearing and taking advantage of others. Just like Chaoyang said, when she wants to take advantage of others, she speaks better than she sings. But when she fails to take advantage of others, she immediately turns her face and refuses to recognize anyone."
"She is the only child in the family. She is already in fifth grade and will be in the first grade in the fall. She is a big kid, but she is still looking for unwanted clothes for her child. She is still a girl. You said that a girl who is going to junior high school should also know how to be beautiful. How can she still pick up leftovers?"
Sheng An Ning was curious: "Is the family in financial difficulty? So he saved money for his family? If it was a daughter, she wouldn't be so unkind."
Although wages are low now, one person's salary can support a family, not to mention units like Zhou Shixun's, where the welfare benefits are still very good, and family members living here receive subsidies every month.
Even if only one person in the family works, life can be very comfortable.
Zhou Hongyun actually inquired: "I heard that Wang Xianglan used all the money she earned to help her two younger brothers. In any case, she used all the money she had to support her parents. Her parents' whole family was waiting for her to help them. If she didn't give them anything, she threatened to make trouble."
This was the first time Sheng An Ning had heard of such a thing: "Don't they say that a daughter who is married off is like water spilled? Why do you still have to manage her family? And if you continue to manage her like this, will her husband have any objections?"
Zhou Hongyun curled her lips and said, "How could she not have an opinion? So she figured out a way. This is not about growing vegetables and selling them. Her family can't bear to eat them, so they sell them. They usually eat leftover leaves or something. Sometimes they eat in the cafeteria and shamelessly bring food back from the cafeteria."
"Anyway, she's a well-known sugar cock. She wants to take advantage of anyone who comes over."
