Guo Xuehua waved his hand, "That's not the case. If I cared about other people's opinions, how could I survive after the divorce? I'm just worried that my daughter would be wronged. I will carefully consider what you said."
"Alright then! If you really don't want to, then reject him harshly. Don't let him see any hope. He's just living in a single dormitory, insisting that you don't waste money on furniture and leave the money for Jiajia and the others to spend. You also shouldn't waste the resources at the warehouse. He doesn't need to live in such a big place for himself."
Guo Xuehua went home alone. The older and younger ones wanted to stay and play, and Jia Jia followed to watch.
When she returned home, without the voices of Jia Jia and the old man, it was very quiet upstairs and downstairs, as if you could hear a pin drop. She couldn't help but think of the old age that Miss Zhou had talked about.
Sitting on the sofa in a daze, even the dog in the yard didn't hum, and I felt more and more lonely in the silence.
Are you lonely?
She thought she was busy, taking care of four children every day and going to Zhou's house or Zhou's residence to cook, so she had very little personal time.
These four children haven't grown up yet! They haven't started families yet! Has her loneliness appeared?
When she walked out of the room, the dog in the yard looked up at her, then lay down lazily again.
Zhou Nian lives in the middle yard. It is working hours now. Next to Zhou Nian is the house of Blind Auntie. Shouldn't Blind Auntie take Jinzi to take a nap at this time?
To the south is Professor Jiang, and no one is at home at this time. The three families opposite are Li Nong, Su Rang, and Zeng Jie. Some of them are at work, and some are off duty. They are all quiet at this moment.
The world was so quiet that it seemed as if she was the only one left.
Unable to calm down, she simply walked out of the yard and glanced at the entrance of the alley. That idiot Liu Dagang was standing there again. When he saw her come out, he was so scared that he hid in the corner.
She couldn't help laughing. It was really stupid. The eldest daughter said it was stupid. Miss Zhou said it was a blank sheet of paper.
Liu Dagang held it in for a while, then secretly poked his head out. Seeing Guo Xuehua still there, he shrank back in fright. Guo Xuehua held back his laughter and waited quietly. Sure enough, that big head secretly poked out again.
Seeing that she was still there, he immediately retracted his gaze, but the next second, he slowly walked out, "Xuehua, I, I didn't follow you, I just wanted to see you."
This idiot, he confessed without being asked! Every time he followed them mother and daughter,
"Liu Dagang, I have something to ask you."
"You ask."
"You asked Miss Zhou to talk to me?"
Liu Dagang immediately waved his hands, "No, no, that's not what I meant. I just want to ask Miss Zhou to help me talk to you. If you don't want to, I will, I will, I will..."
"Just give up?"
Liu Dagang lowered his head. "Even if you don't agree, I don't want to give up. But, if I keep pestering you, others will laugh at you and say I'm a toad wanting to eat swan meat. I know I'm not worthy. I won't bother you anymore. I'm going back."
Liu Dagang, who was moving slowly, heard Guo Xuehua's voice again, "So, you won't bother me anymore, right?"
"Um!"
Liu Dagang's voice was very low. If it weren't for the silence around him, Guo Xuehua wouldn't have been able to hear it.
She finally heard the answer she wanted, but why did she feel so disappointed?
As the lonely figure was about to turn the corner, Guo Xuehua blurted out what Zhou wanted to say, which was also the question she wanted to know the answer to.
"If so, I don't plan to have any more children. Are you willing too?"
Liu Dagang, who was about to turn, was so frightened by these words that his legs somehow got locked together and he fell to the ground.
"Xuehua, you, ask again."
Guo Xuehua felt a little regretful for blurting out these words. Wasn't this a hint that he could agree?
She was filled with regret, but when she saw Liu Dagang fall down out of fear, she suddenly stopped regretting it. "I'm saying, if I don't have any more children, would you be willing? Would you treat Jiajia and the others like your own children?"
Liu Dagang immediately got up and said, "I'm willing. Jiajia and the others are very well-behaved and capable. They are better than my son and any other daughter. I like them very much."
As he spoke, he walked to Guo Xuehua's side, rubbing his hands nervously, "Xuehua, I don't want children. I'm afraid of inheriting the same genes. I just want to take care of you and your daughter. When I'm old, I'll have company. It would be nice if Jiajia and the others could take care of us occasionally."
Guo Xuehua heard something else, "Is your disease really hereditary?"
Liu Dagang shook his head. "I don't know. Anyway, I don't want it. I can't hold onto the thought of what might happen. If it does happen, the mother will be in pain and the child will be pitiful. I don't want it, even if it doesn't mean I can inherit it. I just want to have a family with you, with four daughters, a very happy family."
Guo Xuehua thought of Zhou Yan. Zhou Yan was not only normal, but also very smart. Huh? What was she imagining?
"Dagang, let me think about it again. I also want to ask Jiajia and the others what they think."
"Okay, okay, I'll wait. I'll wait no matter how long it takes." Liu Dagang responded excitedly.
"What if I wait until I'm old?"
"Then let's be your companion!"
The answer without hesitation made Guo Xuehua feel relieved, "Then you can go back!"
"I'm off duty today."
"I know."
"I have nothing to do when I get home. How about I help you tidy up the yard? Have the cucumber vines been pulled out? Are the tomatoes almost done? I'll pull out the vines and dig the ground."
"How do you know all this farm work?"
"I've helped everyone, and I remember everything they said."
Guo Xuehua couldn't stop the excited Liu Dagang, so he could only let him into the yard and release his passion through work and sweat.
In the afternoon, Jiang Weihua and Lu Zhaochong pulled back the beds, naturally using the pickup truck of the Gang of Six, and naturally the samples were disassembled and packaged.
When Zhou Yan heard that his bed had been bought, he followed his uncle to watch them install it.
Only then did Lu Zhaochong see Zhou Yan. In the morning, he had stayed at Nian Nian's place to eat breakfast and did not come with Uncle Jiang. He missed his sister-in-law's wonderful narration and was ordered by Uncle Jiang to change cars and go to the city.
On the way, he listened to Uncle Jiang's brief description. Now when he saw the poor child that Uncle Jiang mentioned, he found that he was not as pale and skinny as he had thought. However, he really looked like Zhou Niao.
Zhou Yan felt a little unhappy being stared at, but fortunately the gazes were not as presumptuous and contemptuous as those of the Kong family.
Jiang Weihua hugged Yan'er and kicked Lu Zhaochong in the butt. "Where are your manners?"
Lu Zhaochong dodged and said, "I'm sorry, Zhou Yan, I was so surprised that I lost my composure."
Zhou Yan waved his hand, "I don't blame you. People who see me for the first time are all very surprised."
Lu Zhaochong was stunned again. This was completely different from what he had imagined?
Zhou Xiang just walked to the door and saw Lu Zhaochong not installing the bed but staring blankly. She clapped her hands and said, "Lu Zhaochong, your ability to do things is declining. I should consider transferring you to another position."
Lu Zhaochong immediately came back to his senses. "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, it's my fault. I was working right now. I listened to one side of the story and believed it. Then when I saw that Zhou Yan was not what someone said, I acted foolishly. I promise this won't happen again."
As he spoke, his men sped up.
Zhou Xiang frowned, "Senior Jiang, did you tell him?"
Seeing Jiang Weihua nod, Zhou Xiang frowned even more, "Lu Zhaochong, go find Ling Ran and ask again. Otherwise, if you make a mistake, even if it's your first offense, I won't forgive you."
