Chapter 367 Finding a Companion for Qin Diao
367
Qin Diao quickly spoke out to stop them, "Hey, Captain Chang, Xiao Yueyue, you guys are just passing by once, please don't worry about me. Life is much better now than before."
"I get a salary every month now. It's not much, but it's enough for my mother and me to spend. My children can eat every meal. I'm very content now."
Tang Yue saw that Grandma Qin's complexion had indeed improved compared to before, but this had nothing to do with living a good life.
She looked at Chang Yin and asked, "Captain, are you in charge of this or am I?"
Chang Yinguan's approach was relatively gentle. If she came, everyone here would definitely need another major overhaul. Chang Yin shook his head, "The entire system here has just been changed, so it's not advisable to have any more chaos in the short term. This is the only way for now."
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Chang Yin continued, "I'll go talk to the deputy county magistrate and the police chief. I don't think they want to be fired after just a few days in office."
"Will it work?" Tang Yue didn't believe it would work. Besides, if the battalion commander told them, they might retaliate secretly.
Qin Diao quickly waved his hands, "Oh, Xiao Yueyue, you really don't have to worry about me. This waiter's job is pretty good. I'm just old and can't carry water anymore. I have no problem with anything else."
"Now, you two boys are helping me, and I'll do some washing and cleaning, and sweeping the floor. This job is so good! Many people are vying for it, but there's still no one to do it.
If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t be able to get such a good job.”
Qin Diao thought about it and smiled again, "Young people, I haven't experienced any hardship. They say things change over time. I've been through it, and I don't know when they will have to go through it too. It's okay, I can do it. It's really good."
They say that old people become more intelligent, and Qin Diao should be considered one of them. Tang Yue suddenly had an idea, and she asked tentatively, "Grandma Qin, I've never asked you, how old are you this year?"
Qin Diao smiled at Tang Yue and said, "I'm exactly 50 this year."
"50?" Tang Yue was a little bit unbelieving. When she first met Qin Diao, she thought Qin Diao was at least around 70 years old. It seemed that life could really wear away a person's energy and spirit.
"What's wrong? Doesn't it look like it?" Qin Diao asked with a smile.
Tang Yue shook her head. "Not really." In fact, the people here generally looked older. People in their 40s usually looked like old men and women. It was just that Qin Diao looked older. Looking at her now, she looked more energetic than before and didn't look that old anymore.
However, her idea is a bit novel, and she doesn't know if Qin Diao can accept it.
"Grandma Qin, have you ever thought about living somewhere else?"
"Change place?" Qin Diao seemed to have thought of something, and her eyes unconsciously looked into the void. After a while, she came to her senses and smiled. "Xiao Yueyue, these days, it's really not easy to change places."
"Do you want to?"
"I do!" Qin Diao answered firmly. "I dream about it. If nothing else, I just want these children to live the life they deserve at their age, go to school and study."
Tears flashed in Qin Diao's eyes. "But, here, I will never be able to take off the hat of a capitalist's daughter in my life. My children are also suffering with me."
Chang Yin clenched his fists tightly under the table. He knew about the cultural reform that had just emerged a few months ago, but at this moment he was powerless to do anything.
Tang Yue turned to look at him, "Captain, let's take Grandma Qin and the others back to South Island."
Chang Yin......
Tang Yue now seems very willing to bring people back, bringing them back to China if they went abroad, and bringing them back to South Island if they left the territory. "Well, without a valid reason, South Island can't accept them. The current household registration system is very strict, and generally speaking, you are not allowed to leave your place of residence without permission."
How could Qin Diao not know? Otherwise, she would have left with the children long ago.
"Grandma Qin, have you ever thought about remarrying?"
"Ha!" Sun Jinan was the first to burst out involuntarily. Chang Yin hadn't expected Tang Yue to come up with such an idea. Without waiting for Qin Diao's reaction, Sun Jinan spoke up, "Captain, even if Aunt Qin is willing, we don't have anyone to choose from."
"Yes!" Tang Yue said confidently. Sun Jinan and Chang Yin looked at each other and suddenly thought of a candidate.
Sun Jinan coughed violently a few times. The company commander was too aggressive. He even dared to plot against her grandfather. However, he looked at Aunt Qin. If Aunt Qin and Uncle Li lived together, it seemed like a good idea.
Chang Yin straightened his expression, "Tang Yue, stop messing around. Although Aunt Qin and the others are good people, their identities will indeed affect you, your father, and your brothers."
Qin Diao hadn't recovered from the news of her second marriage when she heard that it would implicate Tang Yue and her family. How could she possibly do that?
"No, no, Xiao Yueyue, don't do anything stupid. We are fine like this now. I won't bother you."
As he spoke, he stood up and said, "Let me see if the meal is ready. I'll go over and bring it to you."
Qin Diao hurried to the kitchen. Chang Yin looked at Tang Yue seriously, "Some things must be considered carefully."
Tang Yue lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, "Actually, there's nothing much to think about. My grandfather wasn't on the same household registration as us. Besides, he's lived alone his entire life. Even though he has us now, it's a pity that he doesn't have a companion.
Grandma Qin is a very nice person. I think if Grandma Qin is willing, my grandfather will definitely treat her well."
Chang Yin wanted to cover his face with his hands. This girl was quite thoughtful. He had forgotten that Old Li had no blood relationship with their family.
Xiao Mohe couldn't help it. He sat next to Tang Yue and lowered his voice, "Xiao Yueyue, is your grandpa really okay?"
"Yeah, it's really good."
"Then why didn't he get married?"
Tang Yue...she really didn't know this.
Tang Bei and Tang Nan pulled their sister aside and sat down next to Xiao Mohe. "It wasn't my grandfather's fault. His family was so poor back then. My grandfather's mother didn't like him, so she arranged wives for all her other sons. But when it came to my grandfather, they said they were out of money."
"My grandfather was dragged down by them until he was 24 or 25, and he became a bachelor. After that, there were no suitable daughters."
Xiao Mohe felt that this was also the case. The two looked at each other and said, "I heard that my grandfather died when my grandmother was 25 years old. My grandmother raised my father and my aunts. My grandmother was very pitiful, and we don't want her to find someone who doesn't love her."
Tangbei, Tangnan, Tangyue......
Well, it turns out they really want to find a companion for their grandmother. Now, a few people have met.
Chang Yin and Sun Jinan looked at the heads of the people opposite them with a frown on their faces. These kids, who were not even as old as Qin Diao combined, were actually interfering in the twilight love affair of two elderly people.
Qin Diao came out with the braised pork and saw a few black heads. "What are you doing? Come on, it's time to eat."
Xiao Mohe and Xiao Moyu quickly stood up and said, "Sit down and eat together."
The two of them quickly waved their hands and said, "No need, we've already eaten at home." But as soon as they finished speaking, their stomachs started to growl.
Tang Yue smiled and said, "Okay, don't be polite. Let's sit down and eat together." Then she gave a look to a few people.
The two of them understood immediately and sat down obediently, not taking many bites of food during the whole meal. They were already very satisfied to eat a big white steamed bun.
Finally, they decided to give their grandmother and themselves a longer-term letter of introduction, and they would go to South Island together to take a look. If that old man Li was really a good person, they would not object to letting their grandmother get married.
As for the job issue, it's easier to solve. Sell it. Grandma has been suffering here all the time. If there was no other way out, they would have asked her to sell her job long ago.
Qin Diao had no idea about this. When they parted ways, Tang Yue stuffed 200 yuan into Xiao Mohe's pocket. She thought it was too little, but for Xiao Mohe and his friends, it was a huge sum of money.
Tang Yue was sitting in the car and thinking, hey, it seems that robbing a bank is still a faster way to make money.
