Du Ruo watched the children gathering around to buy grilled fish. Smelling the aroma, she also became interested and planned to buy one to take home and eat.
She was not in a hurry and just stood by and waited, planning to go and buy some after the children had finished grilling their fish.
Then someone said, "Shen Qing, hasn't your father come home these days?"
The child named Shen Qing shook his head. Du Ruo looked at him. The child was thin and tall, almost as tall as a junior high school student, but he was too thin and his skin was exceptionally white. Du Ruo knew that he was only ten years old.
The child said mysteriously, "I heard from my mom that your dad got another little one, and she's so pretty."
Shen Qing pursed his lips tightly. This matter was not a secret. The county town was not big, and any little thing would be spread all over the city. What's more, his father did not hide it from anyone, so naturally everyone knew about it. He thought of his mother's tears and pursed his lips again.
Du Ruo's heart moved. She had only read a story in the newspaper at that time. It seemed that things were not quite the same as she had imagined. Maybe this time she would have a chance to poach people.
Du Ruo didn't buy fish either. Seeing Shen Qing walking home with the grilled fish, she slowly followed Shen Qing all the way to Shen's house.
After walking a short distance, he saw Shen Qing crossing an alley and standing in front of the gate of a small courtyard without going in. Du Ruo pretended to pass by and glanced into the courtyard. There was an old lady standing in front of the gate with her hands on her waist, cursing.
"What are you qualified to yell at me? Have you ever earned a penny? Aren't you still relying on my son to support you? What's wrong with him finding a younger one?
Accountant Wu is pretty and has a job, but look at yourself? You eat and drink for free all day long at home, and all you do is ask for money. Did my son give you money again? Hurry up and give me half. I'm going home now. It's almost dark, can't you see?
After a long time, a female comrade came out of the house.
She had two long, sloppily combed black braids, and wore a slightly faded blue top, black pants, and cloth shoes with thousand-layer soles. Her face was a little swollen, and her eyes were red, obviously she had just cried. She looked very simple.
She reached out and handed a roll of money to the old lady, and said with tears in her voice: "Here is the money Shen An gave me, you can take it."
The old lady rolled her eyes at her, put the money in her pocket, opened the door and walked out. When she reached the door, she saw Shen Qing standing there with a smile on her face like a chrysanthemum.
"Oh, my eldest grandson is back? Why are you standing here? Come into the house and let your mother serve you dinner. She is only this useful."
The old lady turned around and shouted towards the yard: "Are you dead? Didn't you see my eldest grandson come back? Hurry up and serve my eldest grandson into the house for dinner. What's the point of keeping you around all day long?"
The old lady waved goodbye and left. Shen Qing pushed the door open and entered the yard. He seemed not to see his mother's tears, and there was a hint of happiness in his voice.
"Mom, I bought your favorite grilled fish. I've been waiting for it for a long time. Come and eat it while it's hot."
"Mom doesn't want to eat it, so you eat it."
"I just had some on the way, it was delicious. I'm saving this for you."
The mother and son walked into the house while talking. Du Ruo stood in front of the door and sighed.
Many people think that women don’t earn money and just eat for free at home. In fact, they do more work and worry more than anyone else. They can earn a lot of money every month by working as a nanny, but they work so hard at home and are accused of eating for free. What’s the point?
When Du Ruo came to the door with a gift box the next day, Shen Qing had already gone to school. She didn't say anything more and directly explained her purpose.
She thought she understood Chen Hong's situation yesterday and that this matter should not be difficult to handle, but who knew that things were not as simple as she imagined.
Chen Hong hesitated for a long time, then shook her head.
Du Ruo asked in surprise: "Why?"
Du Ruo herself had also experienced a divorce, but she really didn't feel any hurt. Since you are so heartless, I will let you go.
What's there to be entangled about?
If you get bitten by a dog, get a rabies vaccine and live your life as usual.
Chen Hong said, "We are a couple and we have feelings for each other. He was blinded for a moment. Who doesn't make mistakes in their life?"
Make a mistake? Is this a mistake that can be made?
"Sister, maybe you can't understand, but my relationship with Chen An is indeed very deep. When I first came to the countryside, I was alone and helpless, and was always bullied. I was a bit cowardly, so when I was bullied, I would sulk alone.
Shen An is always by my side, caring for me and comforting me. When we first got married, his family didn't agree. He said if his family forced him again, he would die with me.
There was a brilliant light in Chen Hong's eyes.
Du Ruo blinked. To be honest, she couldn't quite understand.
She and Yuan Tingchuan are now in love with each other. She secretly imagined that if Yuan Tingchuan was ambiguous with another woman, she would probably call him a bastard. She would definitely be sad, but she was not sure how sad she would be. She had to do what she had to do.
No matter how Du Ruo tried to persuade her, Chen Hong just shook her head.
She is not afraid of hardship. Although Shen An is making money now, she does not covet Shen An's money. She is different from those women. As Shen An herself said, she is different in Shen An's heart.
Du Ruo returned empty-handed, with a lot of emotion.
Yuan Tingchuan sat on the sofa, flipping through some documents while casually saying, "Do you have to go far away to find someone you know? Some people are so far away, and yet you choose not to go and come all the way to find them. Aren't you disappointed?"
"Who are you talking about? Do I know him?"
Yuan Tingchuan put down the documents in his hand, reached out to hook her little chin, and gently stroked it. His voice was hoarse and contained a hint of complaint.
"You're running around the world, and you don't even know where to stay at home with your man. I solved your problem, how are you going to thank me, huh?"
Du Ruo put her arms around his neck and kissed his jaw lightly, playfully like a dragonfly skimming the water, and said softly, "How do you want me to thank you?"
Yuan Tingchuan's eyes were as deep as the ocean, with a surging depth hidden beneath the surface. He leaned over and pressed the person under him, feeling the slippery touch with his fingers, and felt a little itchy.
"Thank me first, I guarantee you'll be satisfied."
Du Ruo's slender fingers unbuttoned the man's shirt one by one. She did it very slowly, and each time she unbuttoned a button, she gently circled her fingers on the smooth and hot skin. The man's breathing became heavier in her ears, and his gaze was so hot that it seemed as if he wanted to burn her into a ball of fire.
The woman's voice was soft and soothing: "Don't worry, don't worry..."
Suddenly, the man lying on top of her couldn't stand it anymore and bit the woman's fair and smooth skin, saying hatefully, "Little rascal, wait and see how I deal with you..."
The woman screamed and laughed, "This isn't allowed here..."
