Little Doudou fell asleep after finishing his complementary food, and Jian Yuelan's diapers were washed and hung out to dry.
After taking the dishes to the kitchen to wash them, Dad Jian started to prepare his medicinal herbs.
The old man, who was originally planning to continue playing chess with him, turned his attention to Jian Yuelan after seeing this.
"Zhizhi, come and accompany grandpa."
Jian Yuelan, "..."
I don't want to play chess with this old man who is such a bad chess player. It's bad enough that he's just bad at chess, but he also likes to regret his moves.
Even though she won, the old man was unhappy and said that she had no respect for the elderly or love for the young.
Even though she lost, the old man was still unhappy and said that she looked down on him for letting the game go.
It was really difficult for her to play chess with the old man.
"Can you wait a moment?"
I can't refuse directly. After all, my father is busy now. I have to find an excuse to appease him. "My mother hasn't come home yet. I have to go pick her up."
"Don't answer, I'm back."
Before he finished speaking, Jane's mother appeared at the door.
The old man smiled at her. Jian Yuelan was thick-skinned and not embarrassed. Instead, she moved closer to Jane's mother as if she had discovered a new world and asked, "What is the ending?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the old man and the others also became interested.
"Good evening, tell me."
The corner of Jane's mother's mouth twitched. She finally understood that everyone in the family was interested in eating melons.
"It was quite unexpected."
Without Jian Yuelan and the others asking too much, she opened up, "Xiao Xiaocao is an amazing person. It was originally a matter between the Zhou sisters, but it ended up being a confrontation between her and Zhou Qingqing."
"And then they started fighting."
At this point, she couldn't help but complain, "I seriously suspect that Zhou Qingqing is not in the right mind. She is clearly a weak person, yet she dared to take the initiative to attack Xiao Xiaocao."
"Then what?"
"Then Xiao Xiaocao pinned her to the ground and slapped her."
Jian Yuelan remained silent. As expected, whatever happened to Xiao Xiaocao would end in an unexpected way.
"Did Sister Shi and the others go?"
"I went."
Now that I’ve been labeled as such, how can I not go?
"When I came back, Shi Meizi was criticizing them, saying she would report them and asked them to write a self-criticism."
Jian Yuelan's mind suddenly flashed back to the last time Xiao Xiaocao wrote a self-criticism, and she burst out laughing.
Seeing her overjoyed look, the old lady said helplessly, "Is it really that funny?"
"funny."
She couldn't help laughing. "The letter of apology is not a problem for Zhou Qingqing, but it is a big problem for Xiao Xiaocao."
"It's just writing a letter of apology. Anything with your hands will do. Why has it become such a big problem?"
When the old man was young, he was quite unruly. He made small mistakes all the time and wrote self-criticisms as frequently as drinking water.
He couldn't understand Xiao Xiaocao's dilemma.
“You are a man of culture.”
There were still educated people with real talent in the old society. "Xiao Xiaocao is different. She only attended a literacy class for a few days."
“I don’t even recognize all the characters.”
“You can learn.”
"That depends on her willingness to learn."
Jian Yuelan explained Xiao Xiaocao's current situation in one sentence, and the old man and the others sighed, "How many people want to learn but can't, and she has the conditions but doesn't want to learn."
"I can only say that everyone has their own aspirations."
Then, Xiao Xiaocao's self-criticism was posted on the blackboard, and Yang Jun was criticized again.
As for Zhou Qingqing...
Because Yu Shengli was not there, no one criticized her, but her face was swollen from being beaten by Xiao Xiaocao. She couldn't see anyone for several days and was locked up at home every day.
Yu Qinghe's daily activities were taken over by Yu Guodong.
That day, Jian Yuelan and her friends went to the beach and met Huang Yang.
"Yangyang."
She called out with a smile. Huang Yang, who was digging something with a small shovel, looked over and saw her. He relaxed and said, "Sister, you brought your brother and grandfather to go fishing."
"yes."
Jian Yuelan ruffled his hair and asked, "Why are you alone? Where are Zhaodi and the others?"
"Zhaodi and Guodong went over there."
Pointing to the west, he smiled and said, "I have to go back and cook for Grandpa later. I don't have time to run so far with them."
"Are there any adults accompanying them as they go west?"
There are many reefs and mudflats on the west side, and you can pick up a lot of good things on the west side every time the tide goes out, but on the other hand, the danger is also higher than other places.
"some."
Huang Yang nodded, "Aunt Zheng followed them."
Aunt Zheng is Zheng Yong's wife and the mother of little black boy Zheng Qiang. She is a sister-in-law with a sharp tongue but a soft heart. She doesn't like to interact with adults, but is very popular with children.
When Jian Yuelan learned that she was following him, she felt relieved.
Glancing at Huang Yang's bucket, she wondered, "Why are there so many clams?"
"Grandpa wants to eat."
This is a filial child. The grandfather he refers to is not his biological grandfather, but his grandfather's brother, Grandpa Suan Tang.
The old man never married or had children in his life and lived with his brother. After his brother and sister-in-law passed away, Huang Yang's father took over the burden of caring for the old man.
Thinking of his father, Jian Yuelan asked, "Is your father out to sea again?"
"yes."
Huang Yang sighed, "My father has been out for six days, and I don't know when he will be back."
His expression was full of worry.
"Before, they would basically come back in three to five days, but this time they missed the deadline."
The original text did not mention the time when Huang Yang's father had the accident. Even Huang Yang appeared very late. It was summarized in one sentence that his mother died, his father disappeared, and he was bullied by his clan members. The information that could be extracted was very limited.
Jian Yuelan had no idea when exactly the accident happened to his father, so he could only comfort him, "He will be back safely."
"Um."
He responded, holding the bucket and said, "Sister, I'll give you some clams. You can make some for Grandpa and the others to go with the wine later."
"Need not."
She waved her hand to refuse, pointing at Jane's mother and the others and said, "There are so many of us who can do it ourselves and have enough food and clothing. You should go back and take care of grandpa."
"good."
He nodded, said hello to Jane's father and the others, then said goodbye and left.
Looking at his receding figure, Father Jian said with emotion, "This child will be a big shot when he grows up."
He has a righteous heart, a kind heart, a conscience, a clear mind, a clear plan for the future, and a very clear understanding of himself.
"Buy him some more paper and pens to read to him."
Looking at Jian Yuelan, he urged, "Provide him with more suitable books if you have any. Also, try to help Zhaodi if you can."
She hummed, a little surprised, "Dad, why did you mention Zhaodi?"
If I remember correctly, his father and Zhaodi were not very familiar with each other and had only met a few times.
Father Jian said succinctly, "Zhaodi needs help, and you have the ability."
Damn, her dad is amazing.
Even this can be seen.
She hummed and said seriously, "I understand."
The old lady couldn't help but remind him, "It's okay to lend a hand, but you must be careful about the consequences of a small favor and a big grudge."
There is no shortage of conscienceless and black-hearted people in every era, and there are many who show kindness and enmity.
