Chapter 87
When Wang Qingqi heard that they were going to the black market, his heart was pounding: "This... isn't a good idea, is it? How about we discuss this later? If we go to the black market to do business, it will be a disaster if someone finds out. Wife, our family is doing well now, so don't do this.
Is that okay?
"What do you mean by fine? Do you have any future? Even if we go to the city, we won't have a house. We have to buy one when the time comes. How much money do my parents have? Can they buy us a house? I heard from my sister-in-law that many families have three generations squeezed into one small house.
You have to think about our future.
Anyway, this has to be done. I don’t want to suffer all my life.”
Zhou Jiaojiao got angry when she saw Wang Qingqi's useless look. The matter between Bai Xiuxiu and Wang Qinghe had already made her feel uneasy.
No matter what, we must not be outdone by them.
Zhou Jiaojiao thought about it, and then gently discussed with Wang Qingqi: "I know what you are worried about. Don't worry, I am so lucky, nothing will happen to us. In the future, no one will live as well as us. I will give birth to a few more sons for you, and we will be a family..."
Speaking of his son, and then looking at the good-looking Zhou Jiaojiao, Wang Qingqi was instantly attracted. What else was there to refuse?
Early the next morning.
At the dinner table.
The whole family watched Wang Qinghe, Bai Xiuxiu and their family of four share the egg custard made from two eggs. The aroma was so fragrant that they felt there was no taste in their mouths.
Even Wang Laosan and Wang Laosi couldn't help swallowing.
Even though I ate meat yesterday, that’s yesterday’s thing.
From now on, the eldest brother and his friends will have two eggs every day. When they think about this, they feel uncomfortable.
Zhao Guifen's eyes were about to spit fire, but thinking of the old man's instructions, she had to hold it in.
The old man said, don’t mess with the eldest brother and his wife recently.
"Today, your uncle Yang and I are going to the city. You don't have to leave me lunch. I see that the expansion of our house is almost finished. You should be more careful while working these days. We should all go to the mountains as a family as soon as possible.
Old woman, you should be careful when you take the second son, the fifth son, and the fifth son's wife to their uncle's house. Try to get everything done for me today.
We can't give them anything anymore. How much have we sent them?"
After breakfast, Wang Shoucheng made clear arrangements for the family.
Since Zhou Jiaojiao is not at home, there is no need to go to the mountains.
When Zhao Cuihua heard that she was not at home, she was very happy. It happened that she was at home today and prepared the pork jerky for the eldest sister-in-law and the fourth daughter-in-law.
"Okay, I have to go out now." Wang Shoucheng left in a hurry.
When he thought about today's important business, he felt a little breathless.
"Big brother, you have to be brave when we go to the mountains today. It's been so many days, at least you can bring back some small prey first." Zhao Guifen looked at her eldest son, and she felt uncomfortable when she thought of the egg custard.
Wang Qinghe nodded as usual, as if he agreed, but he had no idea how to do what he was asked to do.
After breakfast, Bai Xiuxiu gave him grain coupons and meat coupons: "Have something good in the city today, don't just wait around."
Wang Qinghe was very happy when he took the ticket his wife gave him.
Xiuxiu feels sorry for him!
"We haven't bought our things yet, let me buy them all together?" Wang Qinghe couldn't hide his happy expression at all.
"No need. They will rummage through the baskets when you come back. If they see it, it will affect our plan. I'll see about buying some in the city this afternoon. Just take care of yourself." Bai Xiu Xiu reminded him several times, and Wang Qinghe's eyes became more and more serious.
There seemed to be some emotion in his eyes that wanted to devour her completely.
"Stop looking at me and get out of here." Bai Xiu Xiu felt that if she continued looking at him, she would have to go to bed.
"Yeah." Wang Qinghe responded obediently, his hands already dishonestly hugging his wife: "Xiu Xiu, can I give you a kiss?"
"You are an old couple, just kiss each other. Why are you asking me?" Bai Xiu Xiu was confused.
Wang Qinghe then pulled her to the curtain and kissed her.
After a while, he was particularly energetic when he went out.
After the others had left for a while, Bai Xiuxiu's complexion returned to normal, and she took the two children to the brigade.
In the team, Chen Jinhua was talking to Liu Xiaohui and Miaomiao about the distribution of pork yesterday. The pork was distributed among the families yesterday, and after eating a meal of pork, she felt like she had endless energy today.
As soon as Bai Xiu Xiu came in, Chen Jinhua enthusiastically called her to come and chat.
Bai Xiu Xiu took the two children to a stool nearby to play, and she sat at her workstation to listen to Chen Jinhua gossip.
Chen Jinhua looked mysterious: "Have you heard? A leader's child in the provincial capital is missing. I heard it's been years and they're still looking for him. Now he's found us."
This gossip spread so quickly? Even Auntie Jinhua knew about it?
Bai Xiu Xiu was a little surprised, but the faster the gossip spread, the better, and Wang Shoucheng and the others felt more guilty.
I'll probably get the money today.
Even if he can't arrive today, if we increase the intensity of the news dissemination, he will naturally confess.
"Is this true? Aunt Jinhua, where did you hear it?" Miaomiao looked excited. It was the first time she heard such big gossip.
"My husband's brother heard this when he was working in the county. He also said that if anyone finds this child, they will definitely benefit a lot. But I don't know how the child of that family was lost, and I don't know how much suffering he has suffered outside."
Chen Jinhua shook her head while drinking water.
I regret this.
Bai Xiuxiu heard this and smiled: "I have heard about this too. Uncle Yang came to my house yesterday and told me about this. It seems that when my parents-in-law were young, they went out to make a living and lived in the place where someone lost their child.
What a coincidence.
Now my father-in-law has followed Uncle Yang to the county, and he seems to be preparing to see if he can help in any way."
"Is there such a thing? Oh, what a coincidence. To be honest, your husband was born outside. When the couple brought a child back home, everyone was so surprised that they said it was born before the due date.
I don’t know how much suffering I have endured!”
Chen Jinhua was also very emotional when she talked about what happened back then.
Bai Xiu Xiu also echoed.
Wang Shoucheng and Zhao Guifen tried hard not to let people in the village mention this matter, but she insisted on bringing it up.
Aunt Jinhua is passionate and quick-witted.
It won't be long before the news spreads, even at night, to the point where anyone who sees the old couple from the Wang family will have to ask a few questions about it.
By that time, we won’t have to worry about them not giving us money to deal with the disaster.
Here, Bai Xiu Xiu and Chen Jin Hua continued to talk and laugh.
On the other side, Wang Shoucheng followed Yang Chenggong to the county.
