385 The System Disappeared (Finale)
The little guy turned around and was about to tell his mother.
A little girl with twin ponytails jumped up and shouted happily:
"Mom, let's sit here!"
Jiang Qiyue immediately puffed up her face and said, "Mom, I saw it first..."
Gao Qinghe rubbed his daughter's head and discussed with her in a gentle voice:
"But they sat down first. If you insist on this seat, then Mommy will go up with you and talk to them about whether we can sit together."
Jiang Qiyue's eyes lit up and he nodded quickly.
She liked the squirrel stand on the table and wanted to sit with the little squirrel.
Gao Qinghe first gave the children a heads-up, "If they don't agree, we'll just choose a new seat. No crying or making a fuss, okay?"
"Yeah." The little guy agreed obediently and couldn't wait to walk over with his mother.
As soon as he approached, Gao Qinghe felt that the little girl sitting there looked a little familiar, but most good-looking children looked basically the same, so maybe she looked familiar like a child star.
She used her most gentle tone to ask the little girl if they could share the table.
The little girl didn't seem to understand what was said. When she saw Gao Qinghe and her daughter coming over, she yelled in fear, "Mom!"
“Here it comes!”
The woman rushed over with a dessert in her hand and asked in surprise, "Gao Qinghe?"
Gao Qinghe was still bending over to coax her little girl to change tables. If that didn't work, she could only use her money.
When she heard someone calling her name, she looked up in surprise, "Ouyang Yan, why is it you?"
They both started explaining at the same time, but it was impossible to hear what the other said.
They stopped at the same time, looked at each other, and couldn't help laughing.
Gao Qinghe looked her up and down. She was wearing a gray sports-style summer outfit, her hair was tied into a high waterfall ponytail with a woolen hairband, and her bangs were trimmed straight. How did she look like a mother?
If I didn’t know, I would have thought he was a college student studying nearby.
"It's been so long since we last met, and you've really changed."
Gao Qinghe spoke frankly, and Ouyang Yan smiled faintly, not minding.
She learned from her daughter the reason why the mother and daughter came, and took the initiative to invite them to sit at the same table.
Jiang Qiyue looked up at his mother in surprise, and if possible, he would have nodded for his mother.
Gao Qinghe rubbed his daughter's cute apple face, thanked Ouyang Yan, and carried the eager little girl to the table.
Ouyang Xi looked at the two of them curiously. Children have short memories, but she still remembers the beautiful aunt from her father's neighbor's house.
However, Jiang Qiyue had long forgotten the grass next door to his grandmother's house.
"My name is Jiang Qiyue, what's your name?"
Jiang Qiyue supported her chin, swung her little feet and asked the little girl opposite curiously.
The girl looked at her mother before answering, "My name is Ouyang Xi."
"Would you like some snacks?" Ouyang Yan asked.
Before Gao Qinghe could say anything, Jiang Qiyue raised her hand and waved like a little adult, "Thank you, Auntie. My mom bought me ice cream."
The waiter brought the ice cream to the table and the two children immediately started eating happily.
Because we bought different flavors, we started exchanging them halfway through the meal. You took a bite of mine and I took a bite of yours. We had a great time.
"I moved to the provincial capital's railway station to sell tea eggs. It's closer to my father's prison, so I can visit him often."
Gao Qinghe didn't even ask, and Ouyang Yan just talked about her recent situation.
In fact, it was when she saw Gao Qinghe during the Qingming Festival that she was suddenly inspired.
Since Gao Qinghe and her brother can open a clothing store in the provincial capital, why can't her tea eggs?
The provincial capital also has a railway station, and its passenger flow is much larger than that of this small station in Qing County.
Since we are selling things anyway, it is better to choose a place with more traffic.
However, the provincial capital was a completely unfamiliar place to them, so she spent a long time persuading her mother.
Finally, after bringing up the child's future development, the mother agreed.
What did her mother say to her at that time?
"My mom says I'm getting braver and bolder these days."
Ouyang Yan shook her head, looking rather helpless. "Water flows to the lowest places, and people strive for higher places. I don't want anything else right now. I just want the best for my daughter."
Having said this, his eyes fell on the two little girls who were huddled together and whispering.
The two didn't know what to say. Jiang Qiyue looked smart and kept chattering.
Ouyang Xi was responsible for listening, occasionally letting out a sound of surprise.
It can be seen that she was a little overwhelmed by Jiang Qiyue's enthusiasm, but she couldn't help wanting to play with her.
Compared with Jiang Qiyue's openness, Ouyang Xi seems timid and introverted, always passively accepting things.
Who doesn’t want their child to be like Jiang Qiyue?
Ouyang Yan gently smoothed the loose hair around her daughter's ears, her eyes full of a mother's love and expectation for her child.
The two children finished their ice cream and it was getting late.
Gao Qinghe looked at his watch and reminded her, "Yueyue, it's time to go home."
Jiang Qiyue seemed to have heard something thunderstruck. He reluctantly uttered "Ah~", pouted, and reluctantly raised his hand to wave goodbye to Ouyang Yan and her daughter.
Gao Qinghe gave Ouyang Yan a business card and told her to contact him anytime when she needed help.
Ouyang Yan accepted it somewhat embarrassedly. The two exchanged the addresses of their children's kindergartens and made an appointment to take their children out for a walk together next time. Then they parted ways.
After getting in the taxi, Jiang Qiyue asked curiously, "Mom, what is a prison?"
Gao Qinghe pinched her daughter's face helplessly, "You're secretly eavesdropping on the adults again."
Jiang Qiyue stuck out her tongue and continued to ask while still holding her mother's hand.
Gao Qinghe thought for a moment and said, "Prison is for bad people. Anyone who has done bad things will be locked up there."
Jiang Qiyue nodded, but this was not the answer she wanted to know.
Then he continued to ask, "Mom, why is Aunt Ouyang's father in there?"
"Because he made a mistake."
Jiang Qiyue asked a little worriedly: "Can I still play with Xixi?"
Gao Qinghe nodded: "Of course, Grandpa Xixi made a mistake, but Xixi and Aunt Ouyang did not make any mistakes. You can play with them."
The little guy patted his chest, breathed a sigh of relief, and finally felt relieved.
Gao Qinghe looked at the little head in front of him with amusement. How could he think of so many things?
......
Summer 1996.
Jianghai Coal Mine Group has established a Love Learning Plan to build 100 Hope Primary Schools in impoverished counties across the country.
It was during the summer vacation that Gao Qinghe took her daughter to Wuli Village Primary School in Xiangshui Town under the jurisdiction of Lin County to participate in a donation activity.
On this day, Gao Qinghe made an unexpected discovery.
I don't know when the system in my body disappeared.
Because she saw Hao Huaping again, she couldn't hear the sound of the 1.0 version system.
Since choosing to return to Lin County two years ago, Hao Huaping has been working as a primary school teacher in Wuli Village.
As the recipient of the Hope Primary School Project, Zhou Zhenghua organized villagers and all teachers and students to welcome them.
Zhou Zhenghua and Hao Huaping were very surprised to see Gao Qinghe getting out of the car.
Although they knew that the donor was Jianghai Coal Mine, they did not expect that Gao Qinghe, the chairman's wife, would come in person.
After a moment of shock, the two returned to normal and warmly welcomed them.
Gao Qinghe smiled at the two of them, with a hint of indifference and alienation, and led his daughter to complete the donation ceremony.
The remaining specific details will be handled by the accompanying company project manager.
After Gao Qinghe and his daughter went through the formalities, they retreated to the car to rest and wait.
Jiang Qiyue couldn't sit still at all, and acted coquettishly, asking his mother to take him to play nearby.
Gao Qinghe had nothing to do, and being curious about Hao Huaping's current situation, he took his daughter to the village.
She first met Zhong, who was sitting at the door of her house, muttering and cursing something to herself.
Listening carefully, it turned out that she was cursing Hao Huaping for being so heartless that she caused her Zhou family to be heirless, and cursing her to die early so that her son could marry someone who could bear children.
Why is this scene completely different from what Huang Yanqiu described?
Isn't it said that Zhong has been trained by Hao Huaping into a decent person now?
Why does it still look so old-fashioned and feudal?
But the Zhong family, who was cursing as if they had gone crazy in the last second.
The moment he saw Hao Huaping appear, he immediately suppressed all his malice, picked up the basket and pretended to pick vegetables seriously.
But her resentment has already formed a materialized aura that Hao Huaping cannot ignore at all.
There was visible fatigue on her face.
Not only was he tired, but there was also little light left in his eyes.
The seemingly endless days of poverty and boredom tormented her heart day and night.
Hao Huaping asked the system in her body when these days would end.
Where is the happy life it talks about?
Why haven’t you come yet?
How long will she hold on?
She can't hold on any longer!
Gao Qinghe could tell from Hao Huaping's subtle facial expressions that the system was still controlling her.
She knew that Hao Huaping was questioning her system in her heart.
But she couldn't hear any response from Good Woman 1.0.
Jiang Qiyue pulled his mother's hand, wondering why she stopped.
Gao Qinghe came back to his senses from his surprise and looked at Hao Huaping who was not far away again.
I don’t know what the 1.O system said to her, but she seemed to calm down again.
Due to decades of habit, even if the results now are not satisfactory, she subconsciously chooses to obey and has long forgotten to resist.
Huang Yanqiu, Ouyang Yan, parents, younger brothers and sisters, mother-in-law, sister-in-law... and Gao Qinghe herself.
Everyone escaped their predetermined fate.
Only Hao Huaping, who chose to believe in the system, was still waiting for good luck to fall from the sky.
Gao Qinghe raised her hand and touched her heart. She felt a little sad, not knowing for whom.
Maybe it's for that obedient woman.
Or perhaps, it was because of this sudden and unexpected separation that caught her off guard.
"Mom, there's a puppy!"
Jiang Qiyue let go of his mother's hand and ran forward in surprise.
A chubby, muddy little dog huddled beside the cowshed and was picked up by a little girl who rushed over.
The small dog's eyes were filled with fear and confusion, and it instinctively flapped its four legs.
Jiang Qiyue thought the puppy was so cute and held it tightly, not allowing it to break free from his arms.
The little puppy, who looked to be only a little over a month old, had no power to fight back and was narrowly avoided being strangled to death by the human cub.
"Mom, it's so cute. Can we take it home?" Jiang Qiyue pleaded.
Gao Qinghe looked down at the little dog.
The little dog that was struggling violently noticed her gaze, suddenly stopped struggling, and its eyes widened.
This silly look made Gao Qinghe laugh.
She thought the dog looked like a human, but no, that guy was not a human.
“Woo woo!”
The puppy made a fierce whimpering sound, but unfortunately, because it was too small, it did not pose any threat except that Jiang Qiyue thought it was extremely cute.
"Mom, let's take it home, okay~" Jiang Qiyue said excitedly.
Gao Qinghe took a deep breath, suppressed the inexplicable feeling of loss in his heart, and nodded.
It's rare for my daughter to want something so much, so let's satisfy her.
But before Jiang Qiyue could jump for joy, Gao Qinghe said something ugly in advance.
"You can keep it if you want, but you have to take care of it yourself. Mom and Dad won't help you. If you can't take care of it, just leave it here now."
When Jiang Qiyue heard this, he hugged the dirty little dog tightly in his arms.
The little guy nodded hard and promised: "Mom, I will take good care of it!"
Gao Qinghe said nothing more and asked his daughter to put the puppy down and let it walk by itself.
Jiang Qiyue refused, "It's very well behaved and won't bite, mom."
She spoke as if she had known it for a long time.
Gao Qinghe shrugged and quietly moved away to prevent the dirty little dog and the child soiled by the dog from dirtying his clothes.
The little dog was very considerate of Jiang Qiyue and didn't bite her.
And as if he had accepted his fate, he was held in Jiang Qiyue's arms with his tongue sticking out, motionless, only his dog eyes were rolling around.
If his mother hadn't allowed it, Jiang Qiyue would definitely have kissed it.
"Mom, let's give the puppy a name!"
Gao Qinghe hummed, "Okay, what should we name it?"
"Um...Mom, can we call it Dongdong?"
Dongdong?
Gao Qinghe suddenly stopped and turned around.
Jiang Qiyue hugged the dog, looked up and said with a smile: "Boom, boom, thunder, boom, boom, hehe."
Oh, it turns out to be this Dongdong.
Gao Qinghe looked at the distant mountains and smiled self-deprecatingly.
That good woman system that is easy to bully should never appear again.
Very good, it is best if it does not appear, her life does not need any system guidance,
As long as it is her own life that is under her control, whether it is good or bad, she will accept it all!
