Chapter 179: No coincidences
After dinner, there were only three rooms in Jiang Yue’s house. They lived in the two main rooms, and the other living room was used to store food. There was no kang, so that room was completely uninhabitable.
After some arrangements, Qin Ming and Fan Jianguo had to live in the same room.
The three women and their child lived in one room, so it was crowded anyway.
Fortunately, the room is big enough and the kang is big enough too.
Under normal circumstances, this kang is more than enough to accommodate four adults sleeping on it.
Now with three adults and two children, it’s not too crowded.
Jiang Yue and Niu Niu slept on one side of the kang.
Liu Guizhi and Pingping slept on the other side, and Jiang Xiaoxiao became the watershed between them.
Niu Niu had fallen asleep a long time ago and was sleeping soundly at this moment.
Pingping was groaning with fatigue all the way, and now the child was full and fell asleep.
The three adults washed up, went to bed immediately, turned off the lights, and prepared to go to bed.
"Guizhi! Where is your mother's home? If it's too far, let your uncle take you back tomorrow."
Jiang Yue was worried because Liu Guizhi looked like a timid woman.
From their conversation just now, I found out that Liu Guizhi is only 20 years old, two years older than Jiang Xiaoxiao.
She already has a two-year-old child.
But her husband went there anyway, and she had an intolerant mother-in-law who drove her and the children out, probably because she didn't want them to take over the family property.
Jiang Yue is overflowing with compassion.
Liu Guizhi gave a small reply.
"Our home is in Hongqigou Brigade, and it only takes five or six hours to walk there. No need to send me there. I used to walk there often, so this little distance is nothing."
Liu Guizhi was also grateful in her heart that she had met a good person on the road.
If she hadn't met Fan Jianguo, she would have been taken away by human traffickers with her child in her arms today.
And even though it was dark in the county town in the middle of the night, she knew that Fan Jianguo was right.
She was a woman carrying a child on the road, who knew what would happen. The child was so young, and although it was already spring here, it was still very cold at night.
Liu Guizhi had no money and no food, so she was really in the dark.
Although she was about to reach her mother's home, it was still far away. She didn't dare to walk back in the middle of the night.
Not to mention whether she would encounter a wolf or not, even if she didn't, if something happened along the way, she and her child would be finished.
"Hongqigou Brigade? I didn't expect you were from the Hongqigou Brigade. Then there's a man named Liu Shuren in your brigade. Do you know him?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao became interested and decided to go find Liu Shuren.
She had originally planned to go find Liu Shuren after finishing her work in the next few days.
This was what she owed the child in her previous life, and she hoped to change everything about the child in this life.
This child came to tell her the news. She only then knew that her mother-in-law was going to take back the house and give away the three children. Because of this, Liu Shuren was almost beaten to death by his brother-in-law.
If she doesn't repay a favor, is she still considered a human being?
Liu Guizhi was startled and turned to ask Jiang Xiaoxiao in the dark.
"There is only one person named Liu Shuren in the Hongqigou Brigade, and that's my younger brother. Xiaoxiao, how do you know my brother?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao was happy. It was really true that there was no coincidence in the world. She didn't expect that such a thing would happen in the world.
"Oh my God, Liu Shuren is your brother! I never thought he was your brother."
Although she was smiling and talking in a friendly manner, she was also wondering what kind of excuse she should come up with. How did she know Liu Shuren? You know, this is a million miles away from the truth.
Liu Guizhi looked at Jiang Xiaoxiao and asked, "Did my brother get into trouble?"
I was so anxious that I knew I had scared someone just by the sound.
Jiang Xiaoxiao sighed and thought that she was still too reckless.
Who knew that she would end up asking about Liu Shuren's sister.
"No! That's impossible. It's like this. One of our educated youth was out on business and was rescued by his younger brother. Someone asked me how far it was to get to Hongqigou Brigade. I just happened to hear you say you were from Hongqigou Brigade, so I asked. Who knew you were actually Liu Shuren's sister.
That's really good. My educated youth friend went back to the city to recuperate because of an injury. He told me very clearly before he left. I must thank Liu Shuren. I didn't expect that we were acquaintances.
If that's the case, I'll take you back tomorrow so you can meet people and do the things your friends have asked you to do."
Jiang Xiaoxiao made up a story. Liu Shuren did save someone at that time. He saved an educated youth who was buried in the snow. But later on, the educated youth did not repay his kindness. This was probably how Liu Shuren acted bravely when he was a child.
Liu Guizhi was relieved. "No need to thank me, no need to thank me, it's just something that happens easily. My parents always say that if you meet someone in trouble on the road, you should help them if you can. Everyone has a difficult time."
This is Liu Shuren's style.
"Your parents are both good people. They can educate their children like this."
Jiang Xiaoxiao felt that Liu Guizhi's parents were probably also cultured people.
One can see that Liu Guizhi is well-educated and well-mannered.
This is related to one's family environment and should be a good habit developed over a long period of time.
"My parents are good people, but they were unlucky and passed away early. I didn't expect them to pass away so early. Maybe I am their nemesis."
Liu Guizhi's voice began to sob.
Jiang Yue couldn't bear it, "Nemesis! What nemesis? That's all nonsense. You should know that the country now advocates getting rid of feudal superstitions. How can the death of a person have anything to do with you? You, if you think like this, how are you going to live in the future?
Think about it, your younger brothers and sisters still need your care, and think about it again, you are just a little kid, you should be stronger, don't care what others say. Live your life well, that's the most important thing.
It's up to others to say what they want, but if you think like that, you're letting your parents down for educating you for so many years. Your parents definitely want you to live a good life and take good care of your brothers and sisters, and they don't want you to complain about yourself like this."
Jiang Xiaoxiao also agreed, "My elder sister is right. Don't talk about nemesis or not. The most important thing for a person is to live a good life. You should think about your brothers and sisters. They have already lost their parents. If they also lose their elder sister like you, how will they live?
Are you going to leave such a young child to them to take care of? Wouldn't that be harming them?"
She also heard that Liu Guizhi was a little bit pessimistic. Perhaps it was because people said this to her so often that she began to doubt herself.
Liu Guizhi finally felt relieved, yes.
The mouth is on other people's body, so she can't control what others say. But is she really going to abandon such a young child and let his or her younger siblings suffer? Wouldn't she be harming her younger siblings?
The oldest brother in the family is only 12 years old, and the sister is only 8 years old. They were originally waiting for her to return to take charge of the family and have a backbone. If she can't stand up straight, how can she face her deceased parents?
I really gave up that stupid idea in my mind.
