After returning to their home in Yancheng, they took a quick shower, put the remaining half of the watermelon into the bucket, and took a nap.
It was past five when they woke up. There was nothing to eat at home, so they went out to buy some food. The grocery store was running low on vegetables and meat, so they bought a few and returned. Bai Ruozhen mixed the meat and vegetables into some noodles with soybean paste. After they finished eating, they sat in the yard to enjoy the cool air. Gu Xiaoli looked up at the sky and said, "Sister Zhenzhen, do you think the sky here is the same as where we lived in our previous lives?"
Bai Ruozhen shook his head, "I don't know."
"Then do you still want to spend your last life?" Gu Xiaoli looked at her very seriously.
Bai Ruozhen thought about it, then shook his head, "I don't want to think about it anymore."
"Oh." Gu Xiaoli nodded, as if there was really nothing worth thinking about. In that kind of big family, even if her master was a princess and her mother was the eldest princess, their life would still be uncomfortable, worse than now. Although the family was poor, her current parents were really good to her master, and her fifth brother was much better than the dog emperor.
"Pah." Bai Ruozhen slapped his leg. "There's a mosquito."
"Ah." Gu Xiaoli didn't care about being sad anymore, she took a large cattail leaf fan and fanned her, "Why don't you come inside?"
"Yeah." Bai Ruozhen looked at the place where he had taken the photo and saw a red mark. He immediately sighed.
The two of them went into the house, lay on the bed with the fan on, and fell asleep in a daze. The next day, Bai Ruozhen went to work, and Gu Xiaoli continued to wander out.
Until August, Gu Xiaoli lived with Bai Ruozhen. On weekends, they sometimes went back to Xiahe Village with Wang Jun and his wife, but more often they played in the courtyard.
Bai Ruozhen had finished his delicious meal, and it was time for Gu Xiaoli to go to Penglai to work.
Gu Xiaoli felt both reluctant and excited. She was excited because she could see the person she had been thinking about, but she felt reluctant because she really couldn't bear to leave her master.
"I'll be back on the weekend." Gu Xiaoli said sullenly.
"Well, I'll make you something delicious when we get back." Bai Ruozhen sent her to the car and looked at her, "I'll make you whatever you want to eat."
Gu Xiaoli nodded, "Will my fifth brother dislike me?"
Bai Ruozhen chuckled, "He wouldn't dare. If he dislikes you, I will dislike him."
Gu Xiaoli was immediately delighted. She sat in her seat and said to Bai Ruozhen through the window, "I want some more spicy chicken."
Bai Ruozhen nodded, "Okay."
After Gu Xiaoli left, Bai Ruozhen went to work alone and returned to his life of going to work and coming home.
On the weekend, Li Aihong came to Yancheng to buy cloth to make clothes for her children. She also brought a bag of swimming crabs for Bai Ruozhen. At this time, the crabs had begun to grow fat, and people living along the coast could always eat some every few days.
Li Aihong suddenly said, "Li Ming and Wei Nan are divorced."
Bai Ruozhen was surprised, "So fast?"
Hearing this, Li Aihong gave her a strange look, "You know?"
Bai Ruozhen quickly shook his head, "I don't know."
"Oh," Li Aihong said, "but Wei Nan went to the educated youth camp and had a fight with Zhao Lai Di. He said that Zhao Lai Di seduced Li Ming and had an improper relationship with Li Ming, so they divorced."
Bai Ruozhen was surprised. Could it be that the affair between Zhao Laidie and Li Ming was discovered?
Li Aihong said, "Zhao Lai Di denied it and actually had a fight with Wei Nan. Then everyone at the educated youth site knew that she had disdained all the parties Wei Nan had held over the past year, so they told her that if she felt Zhao Lai Di and Li Ming had an improper relationship, she could report it, but she didn't dare to."
As for the reason, Bai Ruozhen knew it even without Li Aihong telling her. Wei Nan had a bad character and many people in Xiahe Village knew about it. He didn't report it to the commune because he was concerned about his reputation. If she reported Zhao Lai Di, Zhao Lai Di might be fine, but she would be implicated instead.
But what Bai Ruozhen is thinking about now is that Wei Nan has no scruples now that he is divorced, and will he become even more unscrupulous in Xiahe Village?
Li Aihong smiled. "The team leader was also very angry. She asked the director of women's affairs to teach Wei Nan a lesson and threaten her. She said that if she continued like this, she would apply for her to be transferred to a more difficult place."
Compared to other places, Xiahe Village and even Yancheng are good places. Children from the city are lucky to be able to go to the countryside here. For example, Bai Ruoxin went to Guizhou, where the mountains are high and the roads are long, and the mountains are densely covered. That is really hard.
"It's not easy." Bai Ruozhen said blankly.
Li Aihong laughed, "Are you saying that Wei Nan has a hard time?"
Bai Ruozhen looked up at her and said, "No, I think being a team leader is not easy. Every village has its own troublemakers, so it's not easy for a team leader to be one."
Li Aihong was speechless and said, "You two really are relatives."
Bai Ruozhen thought about it and realized that it was true. Li Xianjin was Gu Changqing's elder brother-in-law, and by the way, he was also her elder brother-in-law.
"And the child?"
Li Aihong curled her lips. "Li Ming said he wasn't sure if the child was his, so he didn't want the child. Wei Nan is still taking care of the child now."
Bai Ruozhen sighed, "It's a pity for this child."
Li Aihong agrees with this. Children are always innocent when it comes to the grudges between adults. If their mother acts like this and their father doesn't want it, they can imagine what their future will be like.
After working for a while, Li Aihong wanted to go home, so she asked Bai Ruozhen to take her to buy some cloth. Bai Ruozhen took a can of milk powder that Gu Changqing had bought for her and gave it to Li Aihong, "Take it back and give it to the child."
Milk powder is a good thing. Li Aihong's eyes instantly turned red. She wiped her tears and said gratefully, "Thank you Zhenzhen."
Bai Ruozhen pursed his lips and smiled, "You took care of me when I first came here. I will never forget this feeling."
She caught a fever when she first arrived in Xiahe Village. If Li Aihong and others hadn't taken care of her, her life would have been even more difficult.
