Early the next morning, Li Qiuxiang went to work.
Just as Li Qiumei was about to take Zhou Xiaopeng out shopping, He Yuanzhou came over with his grandmother.
"Aunt, where are you going?" He Yuanzhou greeted with a smile.
"Yuanzhou, Xiaopeng and I are fine, we're just about to go out for a stroll.
Auntie, please come in and sit down."
Zhou Lanzhi held Li Qiumei's hand and said, "Qiumei, you are finally back.
Auntie is worried that she won’t be able to see you and the baby.
Yuanzhou, quickly take out the little quilt I made for the baby."
He Yuanzhou opened the cloth bag he brought with him, took out a thin quilt from it, and handed it to Li Qiumei.
Zhou Lanzhi told her, "Qiumei, I made this for Xiaobao using silk.
Don’t underestimate it because it’s thin. It’s very warm when you cover yourself with it.”
"Silk? Is there such a thing these days?" Li Qiumei was a little surprised.
"Auntie, where did you get the silk?"
Zhou Lanzhi told her: "I am not in good health this year. I dare not go out, for fear that I will not be able to return home, so I have been staying in my hometown.
I thought I had nothing to do anyway, so I followed my neighbor and started raising silkworms.
On weekdays, I would follow her to her fields to pick mulberry leaves, and when the silkworms had made cocoons, I would ask her to help reel silk.
It's just that the silk is a little less, otherwise it could be made bigger."
Li Qiumei pinched it with her hands and said, "Wow, what a soft and gentle quilt.
Thank you, Auntie. Our Yuanbao is blessed.”
Li Qiumei couldn't help but feel a little strange when she saw He Yuanzhou frequently looking at the watch on her wrist.
Zhou Lanzhi smiled and said, "Zhou Zhou, didn't you buy a gift for your aunt? Take it out."
He Yuanzhou then shyly took out a small box from his trouser pocket, which contained a Shanghai brand watch.
"Auntie, I'm already at work. I want to give you a gift, but I don't know what to buy?
After much deliberation, I chose a watch for you, but the watch I bought is exactly the same as the one you are wearing."
Li Qiumei then remembered that time passed quickly and He Yuanzhou had already graduated from technical school.
Li Qiumei took off the watch on her wrist and put on the watch given to her by He Yuanzhou.
"It's okay, Auntie will wear the one you gave me from now on.
I'll give the piece I bought to my sister. Thank you, Yuanzhou!"
He Yuanzhou grinned when he heard that.
He took out another box from his pocket, and inside was a tumbler.
"Aunt, this is the gift I bought for Yuanbao."
"Oh, then I thank you on behalf of Yuanbao."
He Yuanzhou and Xiaopeng took Yuanbao to the side to play with him.
Li Qiumei and Zhou Lanzhi looked at He Yuanzhou with satisfaction.
"Auntie, Yuanzhou has grown up."
"Yes, if it weren't for your help, Yuanzhou and I would still be stuck in the mud."
The two started talking about He Jun again.
Zhou Lanzhi smiled bitterly: "He Jun has never come back since he ran away, and now I don't know whether he is dead or alive.
Alas, we, the grandparents and grandchildren, will just pretend that this person never existed."
Li Qiumei asked her, "Isn't Zhang Xiu'e going to be released from prison soon?"
Zhou Lanzhi nodded: "Soon.
I was worried that she would come out and compete with us for He Jun's house, so I sold the house and bought a new one."
Now, no matter how powerful she is, this house has nothing to do with her."
At this point, Zhou Lanzhi told He Yuanzhou: "Zhou Zhou, write down our new address and tell your aunt, otherwise she won't be able to find you when she comes."
After seeing off Zhou Lanzhi and her grandson, Li Qiumei asked Zhou Xiaopeng to go to her aunt's house for dinner.
When passing by Hu's Noodle House, I met Qin Ruyue.
"Ruyue, why are you here?"
Qin Ruyue took Yuanbao in her arms and said with a smile, "I'm here to see Baoer."
At the beginning, the angry Qin Ruyue wanted to divorce, and the Hu family used Hu Baoer as a bargaining chip to force Qin Ruyue to leave the house.
When Li Qiumei looked up, she saw Hu Baoer coming over with Yang Baicai's son.
"Mom, my brother is hungry. Please buy us two some candy."
Qin Ruyue sighed: "Qiumei, Baoer takes her brother with her wherever she goes now, and she doesn't allow me to say anything about her brother. It makes me so angry."
Li Qiumei snorted: "Then why do you care about her?
Just marry again and have another child like I did."
Qin Ruyue shook her head: "Later..."
Hu Baoer fell down, and her brother also fell to the ground, and the two children burst into tears.
In a flash, Qin Ruyue rushed over and picked up Hu Baoer.
Yang Baicai rushed out of the noodle shop, she ran over and hugged her son: "Hu Baoer, how did you take care of your brother?
Let him fall like this?"
Qin Ruyue was furious when she heard this: "Why do you scold my Bao'er? She's just a child, not your son's nanny. Can't you take care of your own child?"
Qin Ruyue and Yang Baicai started arguing.
Hu Baoer's grandparents stood at the door, took a look, and then stepped back.
Yang Baicai kept swearing and Qin Ruyue was clearly at a disadvantage.
Li Qiumei wasn't paying attention and the two of them started fighting.
Yang Baicai knocked her son, who was standing next to her, to the ground.
As soon as the child started crying, the old couple from the Hu family ran out.
"What are you two doing? How could you knock down my eldest grandson?"
Li Qiumei sneered: "Grandson? You two old people are really brave enough to admit him.
Don’t you have eyes?
How does this child look like someone from your family?
I think he looks more like the man of the family where Yang Baicai went to work."
