Chapter 33: Guilty Conscience Tian Zhaodi
The gift is worth it, someone is helping to fight.
Chen Chunhua's old face turned red when she was praised and she smiled kindly.
"Manman, why are you being so polite to your aunt? If anyone should thank you, it should be your aunt who should thank you."
The piece of cloth given by Qi Man was used to buy new clothes for all the grandchildren, and even the daughters-in-law were given some clothing.
There are also foods, but poor people like them can never buy them in their lifetime, but they are given to them just by being given away.
Qi Man grinned, her eyes bright, "As long as Auntie likes it."
With the sign-in system in place, you will never have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of your life.
It is also possible to use it to win people's hearts by just moving your fingers.
"Girl, why are you so popular?"
Chen Chunhua was so delighted that her old face was smiling like a flower.
Looking at Qi Man's delicate and soft little face, he smiled slightly, revealing a dimple, and rubbed his thumb and index finger against each other.
I feel a little itchy and want to pinch Qi Man’s little face.
But then she thought, her hands were rough and black from working in the fields all year round, and she couldn't let them dirty her clean little face.
Qi Man's eyes fell on Tian Zhaodi, who looked resentful. She quickly retracted her gaze and spoke softly to Chen Chunhua:
"Aunt, please be busy first. My eldest brother has a letter back. I have to take it back to show it to Grandpa."
"Okay!" Chen Chunhua responded with a smile.
Looking at Qi Man's departing back, Tian Zhaodi stood there in shock, her body a little stiff. Was she hallucinating just now?
What did the little bitch say?
That bastard wrote back!
Ouch!
Tian Zhaodi slapped her thigh in anger.
How could I forget about this!
Tian Zhaodi's extreme action caused Chen Chunhua and others to look at each other in surprise.
What the hell is this bitch thinking about?
The other two aunts shook their heads, indicating that they didn't know.
But Tian Zhaodi was like an ant on hot pan, running around in a panic.
What should they do? If the old man sees the letter, he will skin them alive.
Thinking of this, Tian Zhaodi felt inexplicably panicked. She quickly put down the broom in her hand and ran to the field without thinking to find the head of the family to discuss something.
As a result, before he could run a few steps, he was grabbed by the collar and pulled back, and Chen Chunhua's rough shouting rang in his ears.
"What are you doing? Are you trying to be sneaky again? You didn't even sweep the entire area, and you want to get away with it? You're dreaming!"
Chen Chunhua's roar was like thunder, causing pain in Tian Zhaodi's eardrums.
When I met Chen Chunhua's fierce eyes, I felt as if she would kill me if I didn't look at her carefully.
This month, Tian Zhaodi was really scared of being beaten. Faced with the brutality of Shen Chunhua and others, she had no choice but to admit defeat. She picked up the broom and started cleaning eagerly.
Seeing Tian Zhaodi suddenly becoming diligent, several people looked at each other suspiciously.
Tian Zhaodi is well-known in the village for being lazy and gluttonous, so why is she suddenly so hardworking?
Tian Zhaodi at the entrance of the village was extremely anxious, while Qi Man had already returned home humming a little tune.
Old Man Qi was walking in the yard in a wheelchair with difficulty, taking a deep breath every few steps.
Although he was tired and uncomfortable, Mr. Qi was in high spirits and continued to practice with determination.
Seeing his granddaughter coming back, Grandpa Qi turned around and called out.
"Manman is back!"
"Grandpa, I got my brother's letter back."
Qi Man hurried over, helped Grandpa Qi sit on the wheelchair, pushed him to the table in the yard, took out the envelope from her bag, and handed it to Grandpa Qi.
Old Master Qi was delighted and muttered to himself.
"I knew this kid hadn't forgotten about my old bones!"
He opened the envelope with great joy and read it carefully, but could only recognize very few words. He had no choice but to hand the sex to Qi Man and said embarrassedly.
"Manman, I can't read a single word, can you help me see what your brother said?"
"Okay!" Qi Man responded softly, took the letter handed over by her grandfather, and while browsing, she casually said: "The post office said that my brother will reply every month. Didn't Grandpa receive it?"
The smile on Mr. Qi’s face froze and he shook his head in confusion.
"I haven't received any. I've asked at the post office before. How could it be possible that there are no letters from your brother?"
Although he is old, he is not suffering from Alzheimer's disease or forgetful.
"Ah!" Qi Man pretended to be surprised: "But my brother wrote back every month, and I have seen the comrades in the post office every month. I have some impression of them. Could it be that the comrades in the post office remembered it wrongly?"
Grandpa Qi was already happy when his grandson wrote back the letter, and after hearing what his granddaughter said, he did not take it to heart. Instead, he stared at Qi Man with expectation.
"Tell me quickly, what did your brother say!"
"My brother said he would be back on June 4th."
Mr. Qi was delighted and asked again uncertainly: "Is the brat coming back?"
Qi Man nodded obediently.
"Okay, okay, okay!" Mr. Qi said yes three times in a row, then counted on his fingers, with an even brighter smile on his face: "June 4th, that's five days later."
Not long after the granddaughter came back, the grandson is coming back too. Good things come in pairs!
Mr. Qi's old face was so bright with smile that it looked like a chrysanthemum. He couldn't wait to ask, "What else did your brother say?"
"My brother said he won't send you money this month, so I'll give you the fifteen dollars personally."
Qi Man answered truthfully.
As soon as he finished speaking, the smile on Mr. Qi's face stopped abruptly and his heart sank to the bottom.
He is not stupid and understands the meaning of this sentence.
That means that the grandson would send back fifteen dollars every month, and combined with what the granddaughter said, when all the things were connected, it would seem that he really would write back every month.
At first, the grandson only reported his days in the city but did not send any money. After he said he had found a job a month ago, he disappeared the next month and has not been heard from since.
Many people in the village said that Qi Dongchen was an ungrateful person. He worked hard and saved money to raise a bastard, but he turned his back on them once the child left the village. Until now, the rumor has not dissipated.
But Mr. Qi always felt that Qi Dongchen was raised by him personally and he knew his character very well, and he would never do such a thing.
Now it seems that there is indeed something fishy.
Where did the letters and money that were sent back go? Who else knows about this.
Looking into his granddaughter's clear eyes, Grandpa Qi let out a long sigh.
"I'm afraid your second uncle and third uncle are closely related to this matter. Only your second uncle and third uncle can produce their IDs. Ordinary people can't take them away."
He said this with a sad look on his face, full of disappointment.
Thinking of what the second and third wives had done in recent years, he was furious and pounded on the table in anger:
"The more I think about it, the angrier I get! The second and third children never do anything serious, but they are good at stealing and doing this kind of sneaky things! If I had known this, I should have strangled them when they were born to prevent them from harming others outside."
