Chapter 54 Auntie Comes to the House

Yuan Xiao felt mixed emotions and could not respond to the little beggar's words for a while.

She suddenly thought that there was no welfare home in Qushui County.

In this era when people can't even eat enough, who would have the mood to help orphans?

It's good if someone takes them in. If no one takes them in, once their parents get into trouble, they will become beggars on the streets.

Yuan Xiao seemed to have made up her mind and turned away.

Those little beggars dispersed one by one. It's good to have money.

Zhong Li and Zhong Yang are so lucky!

Yuan Xiao bought some bones and went to the black market. When she saw someone selling chickens, she bought one and went back to prepare chicken soup.

When she returned home, she saw Gu Lanting's slender figure leaning against the door from a distance.

He held an unfinished cigarette in his hand, and his three-dimensional strong features were hidden behind the smoke.

He saw Yuan Xiao carrying something home with his sharp eyes, and stepped forward to take it.

"Did you go to the Public Security Bureau to see me?"

Yuan Xiao pouted at the cloth bag, "This bag of things is for you."

Gu Lanting's eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait to open the bag and see that it was full of easy-to-preserve food.

There was no doubt about Yuan Xiao's cooking skills, and he knew how delicious these things were without tasting them.

A warm current slowly seeped into his heart, and he felt like he had been injected with chicken blood, full of energy.

Yuan Xiao looked at the dishes she bought and suggested: "Why don't you stay for dinner?"

Gu Lanting was happy to do so and had been waiting for her to speak.

When Yuan Xiao's meal was ready, Wang Yazhi came back from outside with her three children.

When she saw Gu Lanting, she smiled and said, "I'm sorry for taking care of the old lady's affairs. Auntie hasn't thanked you yet."

In fact, she was only ten years older than Gu Lanting. Between auntie and sister, she decisively chose the former.

Gu Lanting seemed to be a taciturn person. He usually didn't talk much with others, but in front of the old lady and Wang Yazhi, he was very measured and his chats were refreshing.

Yuan Xiao prepared the meal and left a portion for the old lady and Yang Zhen in lunch boxes before everyone started eating.

After dinner, Wang Yazhi took the three children to the hospital to deliver the meal.

Perhaps because she felt that Yuan Xiao was a grown-up girl and it was not good for her to live alone with Gu Lanting under the same roof, Wang Yazhi took Gu Lanting away with her.

Yuan Xiao was alone at home and went up the mountain out of boredom.

The forest was too big for a tiny creature like her, and the variety of silkworms was so numerous that she was dazzled.

Yuan Xiao chose a different path from the past, but she was stunned not long after she walked out. It

was densely packed with small white balls. If Yuan Xiao had a fear of dense, she would probably die here.

Yuan Xiao didn't need to flip through the book to recognize that this was a silkworm, and they were all mulberry silkworms.

The fabric made of mulberry silkworm silk has good breathability, and because the silkworms are raised and reeled, they are extremely clean, so mulberry silkworm silk is also a very precious green product.

Yuan Xiao thought of this, but the problem was that she didn't know how to weave mulberry silkworm silk!

Having found a business opportunity, Yuan Xiao naturally couldn't let it go.

She noted the location, left the room, and went out to ask Zhao Fubing.

"Weaving cloth?"

Zhao Fubing frowned and thought. His wife could weave cloth, but he didn't know how to weave silk.

"Why are you so busy? Has the matter that someone reported to you in the office a few days ago been resolved?"

Yuan Xiao smiled brightly, "It's resolved, otherwise I wouldn't dare to come to you."

They were chatting at the door. Zhang Qingya heard them talking and shouted outside, "Is Xiaoer here?"

Yuan Xiao responded, and heard Zhang Qingya say, "Come in and sit down."

"Sister-in-law, I won't sit down. I have to go to the hospital to see my grandma."

Zhao Fubing agreed to this matter and asked her if there was anyone who could weave mulberry silk. Yuan Xiao went to the hospital.

The old lady was usually in good health, so even though she was in the hospital this time, her complexion was not bad.

But what surprised Yuan Xiao was that her heartless aunt came.

Wang Yazhi took advantage of Wang Yating's attentiveness and whispered to Yuan Xiao: "Your uncle has a cousin who works in the hospital. The two families have visited each other, and she told your aunt about the old lady."

Yuan Xiao didn't care, after all, she was the old lady's daughter.

When Wang Yating saw Yuan Xiao coming in, she smiled and flattered: "Xiao'er, why didn't you tell your aunt that you moved, so that the family can visit each other in the future."

The accountant of the commune retired, and they were about to choose a new one.

Wang Yating was trying her best to push her man up.

But it takes money to make connections, where do they get so much money? Borrow money!

But when they excitedly went to Dayang Village to look for Yuan Xiao, they found out that her mother and daughter had moved!

This made Wang Yating very anxious. Just at this time, Qian Junsheng's cousin sent a letter saying that the old lady was in the hospital, so they rushed over.

Yuan Xiao looked around and sneered.

Wang Yating was really capable of doing this. She knew that the old lady was sick, but she still came to visit empty-handed!

"Tell your aunt to come to the wine empty-handed?" Yuan Xiao asked sarcastically.

Wang Yating was embarrassed and rubbed her hands, "It's because your aunt has no money!"

The old lady snorted, "I'm not dead yet, I don't need you to serve me, go back early."

Wang Yating's face sank, and she almost said something bad. If Qian Junsheng hadn't winked at her, she would have cursed out loud.

Qian Junsheng smiled flatteringly: "Mom, it is our duty to come and serve you. We will live in the county town these days and come to serve you every day."

Qian Junsheng looked like a filial son, and even the people around him couldn't help but sigh that the old lady had a good son-in-law.

The old lady held her breath and didn't say anything. Good son-in-law? Ha!

Yuan Xiao smiled and poured a glass of water for the old lady, "Uncle is foresighted. Did you write a letter of introduction and prepare to stay in a hotel?"

Don't say there is no letter of introduction. Even if there is, how can Wang Yating be willing to spend that money?

She immediately took over the conversation: "Xiao'er, your grandma is sick and in the hospital. We will come to take care of her during the day and go back to your house at night. There's no need to waste money!"

Yuan Xiao's smile faded a little, "Speaking of money, auntie will pay grandma's hospitalization fee first."

Wang Yazhi's expression froze, and she stared at Yuan Xiao, retorting subconsciously: "Why should we pay!"

The people around who were praising Qian Junsheng for his good deeds also shut up. If his own daughter is like this, how can his son-in-law be better?

Qian Junsheng's face flushed, with great embarrassment on his face, "No, Mom, it's not that we don't pay. In fact, I came here today because I want to discuss something with you."

Yuan Xiao smiled coldly, "So you didn't come here to see grandma?"

Qian Junsheng could no longer maintain his calm, and looked at Yuan Xiao with some anger and disappointment, "Yuan Xiao, your grandma is your aunt's mother, and we are naturally filial to her."

After saying that, he sat next to the old lady, "Mom, an old accountant in the commune has retired due to health reasons. Now they have to elect someone to replace him. I have a good chance of being elected." The old lady

looked a little cold and glanced at him, "That's a good thing."
