Chapter 263 Preparing to Go to Qingyan County
Speaking of his uncle, Sun Qiang sighed: "Don't worry, he's alone with one shop. He doesn't make much, but he lives a comfortable life."
Lin Xiaoxia listened to Sun Qiang's words and asked again: "Is your uncle not very old?"
"Well, not too big. He is thirty-six this year, which is his zodiac year. He has a hard life. My aunt had an accident more than a year after she got married. She fell off a bridge and died. She was pregnant at the time. There were two deaths. My uncle hasn't gotten over it all these years, so he has been alone all the time." Sun Qiang felt very uncomfortable when talking about his uncle.
Lin Xiaoxia was also sad when she heard this. This uncle was also a man who valued friendship. Sometimes people are just like that. Good people may not have a good life.
She comforted Sun Qiang, "I have always believed that people are destined to be together, and I believe my uncle has his own destiny too."
“I also hope someone can help him get out of this.”
"Yes, I will. After a while, I will help him make his cake shop more prosperous. When he is busy, more customers will come, and he will be in a better mood."
"Well, sister-in-law, you are really a genius. You know everything and are proficient in it."
Lin Xiaoxia thought that she was not an expert in this. In her previous life, she was just a food blogger who liked to tinker in the kitchen. But in this era, this became her advantage.
She said, "I'm just researching blindly. I don't understand things either. Don't you take care of all the business matters?"
"Sister-in-law is just modest, but you've been too tired recently, and you have to take care of your health. You have to worry about business matters and your sister's affairs."
"I know. Don't worry. You have more to worry about with business matters. I'm already very relaxed. It's getting late. I'm going back first. If you have anything, call me. I'll focus on Xiaoya for the time being."
"Don't worry about the family business and leave it to me. If you find Xiaoya, I'll have another sister, and I'll be happy too."
"Well, I'm going back then."
Sun Qiang walked Lin Xiaoxia to the door.
After Lin Xiaoxia took a car back to the gate of the compound, she first went to see Ju Huiyan. Her business was very good and she had new orders for clothes every day.
Fortunately, people at this time, working in the same unit, all like to make the same clothes, unlike the young people in the future, who like to wear different clothes from others and don’t like to wear the same clothes as others. At this time, people in the same unit all compete with each other. If you make something like this, I have to make it too. Of course, there are not many styles at this time, so when they have new styles, they attract people.
This is a good thing for Ju Huiyan because it doesn't take much effort to make the same style.
After staying with Ju Huiyan for a while, he casually drew a small trench coat with a waist and asked her to make it the main style for spring.
After seeing it, Ju Huiyan couldn't stop laughing: "Xiaoxia, you are really my little god of wealth. When I make the sample, I will make one for you too."
Lin Xiaoxia quickly waved her hand: "I don't need it. When I want to make clothes, I'll come to you. I have similar ones, so I won't make duplicates."
"Then tell me what you want to make. Oh, I made two white shirts for you. Take them. You can wear them with anything."
"Then I won't be polite to you."
Ju Huiyan took out two white shirts she had made a few days ago, wrapped them up and gave them to Lin Xiaoxia.
Lin Xiaoxia thanked him and went home as it was getting late.
In the evening, Lin Jianye came over and said that the money from Ai Weimin's family was ready. Meng Qiuju was sentenced to two years, and the local public security bureau asked him to go there tomorrow to collect compensation from the Ai family.
This was the result that Lin Xiaoxia had thought of. This was the retribution Meng Qiuju deserved.
At this time, Ai Weimin's family had moved to a newly purchased small house, which was an old earthen house with three rooms. It could serve as a shelter from the wind and rain. The kitchen was in the middle, and there was a room in the east and west. Ai Laifu and Guan Mingyue lived in the west room, and Ai Weimin, Ai Laibao, and Ai Zhu lived in the east room.
Meng Qiuju went in and squatted under the fence. There was no need to leave room for her, so that was it for the time being.
Meng Weimin planned to build a small side room for Ai Laibao to live in after a while, and then find a husband for Ai Zhu as soon as possible. It would be best if he could ask for a dowry of 1,800 yuan, but he couldn't expect more than that. He would then use the money to help Ai Laibao get married.
Of course, Ai Weimin didn't know that Ai Zhu was also starting to plan for himself at this time.
Ai Zhu couldn't stay in such a place for a day, so she planned to go to the city to find Lu Jingshen tomorrow.
After all, Grandpa Ai saved his life. Even if Lin Xiaoxia replaced him in the marriage arranged by Grandpa Ai, Lu Jingshen should still be indebted to her, after all, she is the real granddaughter of Grandpa Ai.
Ai Laibao lay on the kang, his mind in turmoil. Should he go ask Lin Xiaoxia for the money? They had agreed on a hundred dollars the first time, five hundred the second time, a total of six hundred.
What should I do? Should I take it or not? I can't bear to give up my own money, but if I do, I might get beaten up, and the money might not come to me.
Although Lin Xiaoxia is a man of her word, she is also very cruel. Do you want it or not? Do you want it or not?
At this moment, there were only three words in Ai Laibao's mind.
Ai Lai Fu and Guan Mingyue were also arguing in the west room.
Guan Mingyue really can't stand such a family anymore. Now she has to wash the clothes and cook the meals for the three men in the family. Why?
What does it have to do with me when a good life turned out like this because of Meng Qiuju and Ai Zhu?
Why should I live like this? She looked at Ai Laifu and said, "I am so unlucky to marry you."
Ai Lai Fu glared at Guan Mingyue and said, "I'm not unlucky? I can't even have a son, and you, a chicken that doesn't lay eggs, are so troublesome?"
Guan Mingyue said, "People say that being unable to have children may be a man's fault."
"Is it enough for you to just hear it? You're making so many excuses when you can't get pregnant."
"If we had money, we could go to the city hospital and at least we'd know what's going on. Now, he's acting like a fool."
"Shut up. I'm annoyed just looking at you." Ai Laibao said and walked out directly. He didn't want to go to the hospital. He had made excuses before because he was afraid that they would find out that the problem was with him.
Guan Mingyue sat on the kang, wiping her tears. What kind of life was this? But she didn't dare to talk about divorce because she couldn't get pregnant. If it was her fault, she wouldn't be able to find another partner after the divorce.
Neither of them talked about divorce, but they were tired of each other.
The next day at noon, Lin Xiaoxia received a call from Lin Jianye, who said that the money had been recovered and he would give the passbook to Lin Xiaoxia when the time came to deposit it.
Lin Xiaoxia said directly to Lin Jianye: "Dad, save this money for Xiaoya as a dowry in the future. I don't need it."
Lin Jianye said, "Don't worry about these. Your mother and I will prepare them. This money is what they should compensate you. Anyway, I've kept it for you and will give it to you when the time comes."
Lin Xiaoxia didn't want to refuse back and forth. She would just give it to her sister later anyway, so she said, "Well, then keep it for now."
Lin Jianye added, "Don't worry about your mother. She doesn't know anything right now."
"Dad, now you have to start giving my mom some hints. I think my sister will be found soon."
"Well, I've recently started telling her some things to see how she reacts. Actually, I'm also afraid now. I'm afraid that if I'm disappointed, she'll get upset again."
"Dad, ask my second brother to find a psychiatrist for Mom so she can receive some psychological treatment."
"Your second brother thought the same thing. He found a very good psychologist through a friend. The psychologist said that you can come to our house to talk to your mother first and see how things go."
"That's a very good idea, Dad. You don't have to worry too much about Xiaoya. I, Jingshen, and my elder and second brothers are here. You must take good care of Mom. Otherwise, if something happens to Mom, won't we all blame ourselves?"
"Well, don't worry, I will take good care of your mother."
