Chen Xiaoying was worried about her second daughter Li Hongli, but she truly loved her poor granddaughter.
"Have you thought of a name? What is it?" she asked.
Li Hongli said: "My eldest sister said that she wanted to name the child Pingping."
Chen Xiaoying frowned: "Pingping is not a name only for people of your generation. There are Caiping from Lijia Village, Xiaoping, Liping, etc. Is there a lack of such names?"
Li Hongyan is 20 years older than Li Hongli, and her name also has some ideas from the older generation.
Zhao Xueyan was also curious: "Hongli, child, are you really willing to register with your eldest sister?"
Li Hongli hesitated: "I haven't thought about it yet."
Zhao Xueyan just smiled and said, "Have you thought about it?"
Li Hongli was really stupid. She thought that if she left the child with her elder sister, she would be able to raise him well.
This time, it is not just about the child’s household registration, but most importantly, if Li Hongli gets married in two years, will she take the child with her?
At that time, she basically wanted to keep the child at home to raise him.
How could her elder sister Li Hongyan, who is such a cunning person, be so selfless as to do good things for others?
Li Hongli now trusts Li Hongyan particularly because the relationship between sisters is closer than that between brothers and sisters.
But she occasionally heard what Li Hongyan said to her in private.
"I have to support Pengbo and Pengle to go to college. Pengfei also wants to buy a house and get married. I am a farmer and don't have much money. But even if I don't have money, I will raise the children well. My three sons are the children's support."
What he meant was that he had no money, but still had to raise children.
Then what can we use to support it?
Li Hongli was just thinking about it when someone came into the store.
"Sister." The person called out.
"Auntie, you're here." Zhao Xueyan also called someone.
It turned out that it was their cousin Su Wanping who came.
"This child is getting cuter and cuter. Let auntie hold him." Su Wanping took the child with a smile and hugged him in her arms.
A six-month-old child is at the peak of his life, lively and cute, white and chubby, and very lovable.
Su Wanping had nothing to do so she just sat in the shop near the First Municipal Hospital, helping to look after the shop. When she came, there must have been something going on.
Chen Xiaoying asked: "Why are you here suddenly? Is there something wrong?"
Su Wanping looked at Zhao Xueyan and Li Hongli beside her. There was no one else and there was nothing bad to say, so she whispered to Chen Xiaoying, "It's something, a rare thing."
A rare thing?
"What's the matter?" Zhao Xueyan and Li Hongli couldn't help but ask.
It's a rare thing, and it arouses the curiosity of many people.
Su Wanping said to Chen Xiaoying: "Sister, do you still remember Wang Jinsuo's second son, Wang Yaozu?"
She was afraid that Chen Xiaoying would not remember, so she added, "It was Wang Yaozu, the biological second brother of my unscrupulous adopted daughter Ma Hongxiu."
Chen Xiaoying remembered: "What happened? Didn't they say he followed Ma Hongxiu to the United States to make a fortune? At that time, he also took away 10,000 yuan that the Wang family had borrowed from everywhere."
Su Wanping said with emotion: "Yes, everyone thought he was going to make a fortune, but he has been gone for more than half a year, guess what happened?"
Chen Xiaoying discovered for the first time that her cousin had a talent for storytelling: "What's the matter?"
Li Hongli and Zhao Xueyan also widened their eyes.
They also knew that Ma Hongxiu was raised by her cousin Su Wanping, went abroad to study after attending college, and married an American there. She was said to have made a fortune and lived a good life there.
But in the twenty years since he left, he has not sent a penny to his adoptive mother, and he has to ask her for money every now and then.
She suddenly came back more than half a year ago, to force her adoptive mother to sell the house. In order to force her adoptive mother to sell the house to support her, she called her biological parents and a group of brothers and cousins to Su Wanping's house, and they acted like robbers and bandits, making Su Wanping's life miserable.
I was so angry that I went to the clinic twice.
The ungrateful person refers to people like Ma Hongxiu.
Not only did she force her adoptive mother to sell the house, regardless of her adoptive mother's life or death, she also forced her adoptive mother to borrow money from her relatives in her own name. Once the money was borrowed, the debt became Su Wanping's and the money was spent by her.
He forced the person to give up the house, but his aunt refused to give it to him. He became even more ruthless. He first picked the lock of his aunt's house and stole things. When he failed to achieve his goal, he simply took a kitchen knife and tried to commit suicide!
This kind of person is really eye-opening. How can a person be so selfish?
In the end, the angry aunt went to court and sued Ma Hongxiu, demanding to sever the mother-daughter relationship with her.
In order to draw a clear line between the two, he even made a will in advance and gave away his house.
This time, I heard news about Ma Hongxiu again.
"Zhu Dahong came to see me." Su Wanping said with a look of emotion: "She looked several years older. She spoke to me in a very kind voice and asked me if Ma Hongxiu had called me after returning to the United States."
"That's weird." Chen Xiaoying thought about it again and again, and said, "I found it strange that Ma Hongxiu was able to take Wang Yaozu out. Wang Yaozu didn't even go to junior high school, had no education, no culture, and couldn't even speak English. To go abroad, he needed approval from the American Embassy. What did he use to get approval?"
"Besides, Ma Hongxiu is not such a kind person. How could she take her second brother to make money? Is it good for her?"
Su Wanping then said, "So I was also very confused at that time. This time when Zhu Dahong came, I realized that it was Wang Jinsuo and Zhu Dahong who lent Ma Hongxiu 10,000 yuan on the condition that she take one of her brothers to the United States to make a fortune. People say that there is gold everywhere in the United States. If you go to the United States, you can make a fortune even if you wash dishes in a restaurant."
"Washing dishes, everyone can do it. Besides, the 10,000 yuan was not given for free. Ma Hongxiu wrote a certificate to sell a house in the United States to the Wang family. They are all waiting for their second son to make a fortune in the United States so that they can take their whole family to the United States to live a wealthy life."
"Anyway, the house has been bought, and the whole family will have a place to stay when they move there. The rest, no matter how much money is earned, is profit."
After hearing what Su Wanping said.
Li Hongli and Zhao Xueyan were both confused.
Li Hongli even asked, "They are just ordinary rural people who have spent their entire lives tending to those few acres of land and have never even been to the provincial capital. Why are they so willing to go to the United States?"
"Yes, I'm unfamiliar with the place. If I were asked to leave Kaiyuan County and go to the provincial capital to live, I would be quite scared," said her third sister-in-law Zhao Xueyan.
In fact, this is what normal people think.
People have a sense of dependence on the place where they grew up.
This is where they grew up. Here are their relatives, friends, and familiar villagers. No matter what happens, there is always someone to help. Although their lives are poor, they are very stable.
Therefore, ordinary villagers do not have the adventurous spirit to go to big cities to make a fortune.
Why are Wang Jinsuo and Zhu Dahong's family so keen on going to the United States?
Su Wanping sneered: "I couldn't figure it out at first, but later I understood that they are 'bringing disaster upon themselves'. For so many years, they have been in contact with Ma Hongxiu behind my back..."
