Zhan Jinhua had already told her family about the "new tree" incident. In fact, from the very beginning, if the Zhan family hadn't helped her, Zhan Jinhua wouldn't have been able to pull off the baby swap.
Moreover, the Zhan family knew the specific reason for the child exchange very well. They even held the idea of giving it a try, hoping that starting from this incident, the misfortune that would come to the Zhan family for generations would be away from them.
After all, the child was pronounced dead by the doctor at birth. If he could do something for the family before he died, it would mean that his life in this world was not in vain.
If it is true as Master Yiyuan said, that the child can survive by moving to another place and can also bring lasting wealth to the family, that would be perfect.
But now the stolen child is lost, and my own child has come back by himself by accident. Is this all God's will?
Zhan Jinhua asked Master Yiyuan how to resolve this dilemma, and he promised that it would be okay not to send the child back. However, before he could do anything, Zhan Jinhua and Qian Jindou encountered trouble.
In order to allow the ritual to proceed as quickly as possible, it is imperative to bring this "new tree" to the Zhan family.
So when Qian Niandi proposed to bring the "new tree" back to the Zhan family, old lady Zhan readily agreed.
The Qian family was kept in the dark about the reason from beginning to end, and they had always thought that their second son was cuckolded.
Although she complained that her eldest son Qian Jincai was useless, she was still afraid that he would be hungry. While Qian Niandi was answering the phone, she went to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables and prepare to cook some dishes for herself.
Seeing that it was time for school in the afternoon and lunch was not ready at home, Qian Meijuan was angry and anxious, but she did not dare to get angry with Old Lady Qian. Instead, she went to help Old Lady Qian light the fire and comforted her: "Grandma, don't worry, my second uncle, second aunt and my brother will be fine."
"Ah!" Old Mrs. Qian sighed heavily. Even though such a big thing happened at home today, Old Mrs. Qian rarely did not yell or lose her temper at home, which showed that today was really a big blow to her.
She continued to work on her tasks and said to Qian Meijuan, "Xiaojuan, you must study hard and find a wealthy husband when you go out.
Look at your aunt, she never worries about money and lives a comfortable life. She's well off and can even help out at home. Our family is counting on you.
Your father is almost fifty, and we can't count on him any more. As for your brother, he's not out yet, but he's out of school, and we don't know what he'll do in the future.
You still have hope. If you look good and study well, then even if you don't have any special abilities, you can still marry a rich man like your aunt."
Old Mrs. Qian said so. Originally, she didn't care much about whether Qian Meijuan went to school or not, but today she suddenly changed her mind.
Although Qian Jinling had managed to become a regular wife by becoming someone's mistress, it wasn't a stable position. Especially in 1997, the new millennium was approaching, and the number of female college students was increasing, making them increasingly attractive to successful men.
Whenever she went back to her parents' home or called, she complained to her mother more than once that her family had not paid enough for her education. Even if she could support herself for a few years with her beauty, she had no academic background and could not compare with those female college students.
In order to consolidate her position, Qian Jinling had to study hard, learn finance, management, and various cultural knowledge, so that she could go out and win face for the man. Only in this way could she demonstrate her value and not be easily abandoned.
Moreover, she has real skills. Even if her husband can't rely on her, she still has a lot of money in her hands and has experience in managing a company, so she won't live off her savings.
Only Qian Jinling herself knows the bitterness involved, and it is difficult for outsiders to understand.
It was only after the second son's accident that Old Lady Qian began to carefully examine her eldest son, and she sighed every time she thought about him. It seemed that her eldest grandson was also a bit of a worry now.
If he could turn his granddaughter over and make her the smart, beautiful, and seductive female college student her aunt mentioned, he wouldn't have to worry about his son and grandson's future. Ultimately, he was still making plans for his own children and grandchildren.
Qian Meijuan had no idea what was going on in the old lady's mind. She just thought that her grandmother had figured it out and finally realized the value of her granddaughter.
She was very happy and vowed to study hard and make a name for herself, and her aunt Qian Jinling was her goal.
It was a bit stuffy in the middle of the day, so I didn't cook anything fancy. I just made some flattened eggplant, tomatoes mixed with sugar, and cucumbers mixed with vermicelli, and that was enough for lunch.
After setting the table, the family of seven, big and small, sat together. The atmosphere today was rather dull. Apart from Qian Niandi coaxing Qian Longfei to eat, the rest of the people ate separately.
Qian Meijuan simply ate a few mouthfuls of rice and ran out to school with her schoolbag. This afternoon, after Mrs. Qian told her about the phone call, she finally understood that no matter how embarrassing it was for her family, she couldn't skip school because of it.
On the contrary, she had to study harder and let those classmates and teachers who laughed at her see it. She even dreamed of becoming a powerful person in the future and coming back to humiliate those country bumpkins in school.
Today is the second day of the fall semester. Qian Baoge had already registered at school yesterday and officially became a primary school student. However, Qian Xiaoshu's seat is still vacant.
The Qian family seemed to have forgotten that Shen Nan had registered Xiaoshu for school. Also, because the family had been busy with things these past two days, they had forgotten that the new Xiaoshu was old enough to go to school.
Qian Niandi, in her third year of junior high, had to start school early, which meant she missed even more classes. However, with her home in disarray, she had no idea when she would be able to return to school. Fortunately, she had taken Qian Longchuan's advice and bought some supplementary materials before returning to Luojiagou, allowing her to find time to study at home.
