At night, in the room of Shen's mother and father, Shen's mother tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, which made Shen's father beside her unable to fall asleep.
After Shen's mother tossed and turned for a long time, Shen's father finally couldn't help but speak, "What's the matter, are you still going to sleep?"
"I'm just thinking about Qingmiao being alone outside." Mother Shen said unhappily, her tone seeming to accuse Father Shen of not caring about his daughter.
"Jianmin is there too, what are you afraid of? Your daughter is already that old, she'll be fine. You don't have to worry."
Father Shen’s words seemed to calm Mother Shen’s emotions, and she stopped having wild thoughts.
"You're right, go to sleep."
"That's right, I wanted to sleep a long time ago, but you kept me awake."
"Then who are you? Did I disturb your sleep?" Shen's mother frowned and questioned.
Father Shen quickly begged for mercy: “No, no, let’s go to bed quickly.”
After saying this, Father Shen immediately closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep. Mother Shen glanced at him and closed her eyes without saying anything.
Not long after closing their eyes, they both fell asleep.
The next morning, when Shen Jianmin got up, Shen Qingmiao had already prepared breakfast. After seeing Shen Jianmin get up, Shen Qingmiao smiled and said to him, "Third brother, go wash up and have breakfast."
"Okay."
Last night, Shen Qingmiao's thoughts were running wild in her mind, and she just couldn't stop. After finally falling asleep, she woke up before dawn. Shen Qingmiao was so excited that she didn't want to fall asleep, so she simply got up and made breakfast.
At the dining table, the brother and sister ate breakfast. Shen Jianmin savored the familiar taste and praised, "Qingmiao, your cooking is still the best. I haven't tasted your cooking these days, and I miss it."
Shen Qingmiao replied: "Don't worry, I have a place to live now. I will come to the county every now and then."
"No, I don't want you to cook for me every day. Besides, the canteen in my factory is not expensive and the food tastes pretty good." Although Shen Jianmin liked his sister's cooking skills, he didn't want to ask his sister to cook for him every day.
In fact, Shen Jianmin is not picky about food, as long as he can have enough food, he is happy. Life now is much better than when they were young.
Shen Jianmin recalled his childhood, when his eldest brother was still young and they were still little kids. The family had just split up and had nothing, leaving his parents with nothing to support the four of them. They were practically broke. They didn't even have food to eat, so they often went to the mountains to dig for wild vegetables. Having enough to eat was his biggest dream back then. Now, their family is finally doing much better; if nothing else, they have food to eat.
Without good skills, how could he become a chef in the factory cafeteria? So, Shen Jianmin was just talking.
After dinner, Shen Qingmiao stayed at home to make mooncakes, while Shen Jianmin went to work at the factory.
Walking on the way to work in the morning light, Shen Jianmin was quite satisfied with his current life, with a smile on his face from the inside out.
Thinking about his future plans with Shen Qingmiao, Shen Jianmin felt that there was hope in life.
Looking at the bicycle flying past him, Shen Jianmin's face was full of envy.
"When can I buy a bicycle?" Shen Jianmin muttered softly.
His biggest wish is to own a bicycle of his own. It would be so cool to ride it on the village road.
Just thinking about it made Shen Jianmin excited.
Just as Shen Jianmin was still immersed in his own fantasy, imagining the beautiful scenery in the future, a cry for help reached his ears. Shen Jianmin looked around and saw that he was the only one on the path.
"It sounds like someone is calling for help."
Out of curiosity, Shen Jianmin walked towards the source of the sound. When he reached a narrow intersection, he looked around but saw no one. Looking inside, he saw a middle-aged man pushing an old woman.
The old woman was still shouting: "Money is being robbed, money is being robbed..."
Unfortunately, this place is remote and no one can hear it.
"I told you to let go, let go now." The short middle-aged man said as he beat the old woman.
"Give it back to me, give me back the money." The old woman held the middle-aged man's trouser leg tightly and refused to let go.
As a righteous and passionate young man, Shen Jianmin naturally could not stand idly by when he saw this scene.
When Shen Jianmin saw this, he immediately stood up and shouted, "Hey, what are you doing?"
The middle-aged man heard a sound and turned around to see Shen Jianmin standing at the intersection, and he became anxious.
After robbing the old woman of her money, the middle-aged man ran away. The only way out was behind Shen Jianmin.
The old woman whose money was robbed cried out: "Money, my money, that is my life-saving money!"
He completely ignored the fact that his forehead was broken and bleeding.
The middle-aged man and Shen Jianmin's eyes met in the air, and for a moment, no one took the initiative to attack.
The middle-aged man was already starting to get anxious. He knew the longer the stalemate continued, the more dangerous it would be for him. If someone else came over, he would be doomed.
The opportunity you have finally found will be missed in vain. You may even face imprisonment.
So the middle-aged man took action and wanted to rush past Shen Jianmin.
Shen Jianmin naturally saw his intention and wanted to stop him.
Unfortunately, Shen Jianmin failed to stop the middle-aged man and let him run away.
Shen Jianmin chased after the middle-aged man, shouting, "Robbery! Someone's robbing! Help me catch the guy in front!"
