illegitimate child
Seeing Zhao Guomin hang up the phone, Song Xiaojuan asked: "What's wrong?"
"More than half of the apple trees planted on the West Mountain died." Zhao Guomin frowned.
"Ah! What's going on?" Song Xiaojuan also became anxious. She knew that Zhao Guomin was preparing for a transformation and all his money was invested in this. He was particularly concerned about these fruit seedlings. He lived and ate in the mountains during that period. When he returned home, he was dark and thin.
Song Xiaojuan held his hand and stretched his muscles. "Don't worry. When we get home, we'll talk to an agricultural professional. Is it the soil or the planting method? There's always a solution."
Zhao Guomin pulled his hand away and pinched the back of Song Xiaojuan's neck: "Well, Ele.me will take you to dinner."
Song Xiaojuan wasn't very hungry, but she was afraid that he would have too many thoughts, so she nodded: "I'm hungry. Have you ever eaten Guangzhou Buddha Jumps Over the Wall? Come on, I'll treat you today." As she said that, she winked at him mischievously.
Zhao Guomin couldn't help laughing when he saw her expression: "Okay, sister, do you have enough money in your wallet tonight?"
"If it's not enough, I'll put you in a restaurant."
Song Xiaojuan took him to the restaurant where she and Xiao Hongjie had "recognized each other" that day. The food there was really good, and she had long wanted to visit again.
The two of them found an inconspicuous spot on the first floor and sat down.
Song Xiaojuan ordered all the signature dishes she had that day.
Zhao Guomin rinsed her cup and listened to her order several dishes: "Is this edible?"
Before Song Xiaojuan could answer, she heard a familiar voice.
"Xiaojuan"
Song Xiaojuan turned around and saw Xiao Hongjie, a middle-aged man, and a thin boy standing at the stairs. They seemed to have just finished their meal.
"It really is you, come and have dinner." Turning back: "Hubby, come and see, this is Xiaojuan."
The posture was as if saying: Husband, come and see, this is our son’s savior, the big bone marrow in action.
Xing Zhigang walked over and looked her up and down: "You look quite similar to you when you were young."
Damn! You are just watching the monkey and making comments.
"Xiao Fan, why are you still standing there like an idiot? Come here quickly and let me introduce you."
Zhao Guomin stood up directly and stood in front of Song Xiaojuan, pressing her shoulders with his hands from behind, meaning that she didn't need to get up.
"If you have anything to say, please wait until my wife finishes her meal before you tell me," Zhao Guomin said with a slight curl of his lips.
This was indeed a bit insulting to Xing Zhigang. He was a big boss and others always waited for him. How could he dare to ask him to wait for others? He glanced at Xiao Hongjie, snorted, turned around and took Xiao Fan away.
Xiao Hongjie also looked very unhappy. He wanted to chase Xing Zhigang out, but then he looked at Xiao Fan again.
When she turned around to look at Zhao Guomin, her face was full of disgust: "Get out of the way! Xiaojuan, who is this person you are looking for? How can you talk to your elders like that?"
"Then you are not qualified to be an elder. You don't even give a red envelope when you meet the younger generation." Song Xiaojuan came out from behind Zhao Guomin.
Xiao Hongjie: ...
Seeing her expression, Song Xiaojuan was unwilling to continue. "I know you have something to ask me. Is it to donate bone marrow to your son?"
Xiao Hongjie was surprised: "Why are you..."
Song Xiaojuan sneered: "How do you know this? You can find out about your family's affairs by just asking around. I'm also very curious, are you really smart or are you just pretending to be a saint?"
Zhao Guomin knew that he wanted to solve the problem himself, so he sat down and did not get involved.
Xiao Hongjie: "What do you mean?"
Song Xiaojuan: "Your son's illness requires a bone marrow transplant. I understand why you don't dare to let Xing Zhigang and Xing Ling be matched. But I didn't expect you to not even dare to touch Xing Zhigang's illegitimate son, and only dare to focus on your own daughter. What kind of saint are you?"
She had just learned of this explosive news not long ago. It turned out that Zhao Guomin went out in the morning and asked Liu Qingyun to introduce him to someone so that he could investigate the Xing family.
Xing Zhigang's affairs are no secret in the circle, and anyone can find out as long as they are willing to find out.
Before the two of them had dinner, the other party passed the information to Zhao Guomin.
Xiao Hongjie had difficulty breathing when he heard this bolt from the blue.
How could Xing Zhigang...how could he do this? Didn't he say it was just for fun?
Song Xiaojuan knew from her expression that she wasn't aware of the situation, so she didn't mind adding fuel to the fire: "The child's mother is a secretary from his company. I heard she has a good relationship with you. You're really generous. You're using your own child to cause trouble, leaving your best friend's child to inherit the Xing family fortune. I have to give you a thumbs up."
Looking at Xiao Hongjie's pale face, Song Xiaojuan felt particularly happy.
Xiao Hongjie was almost unable to stand after hearing the news one after another. She trembled and held on to the table behind her: "What you said is true..."
"Whether it's true or not, you can ask your husband's friends and you'll find out. I heard that Xing Zhigang even held a banquet for this child, and your stepdaughter, who you take so well, even attended. All his friends knew about it, but it turns out he kept it a secret from you alone."
Xiao Hongjie couldn't bear it anymore. He took a few steps back trembling, turned around and quickly walked out of the restaurant.
Song Xiaojuan didn't truly breathe a sigh of relief until this moment. Zhao Guomin took her hand and sat down, and the two smiled at each other.
Only after returning to the county town she was familiar with did Song Xiaojuan finally relax.
After she registered the trademark, she sent the design drawings.
Now we have hired people at the cosmetics counter, and Liu Yan is also at the clothing store, so we can let go.
Song Xiaojuan thought about going back with Zhao Guomin to see what was going on.
More than half of the saplings died, and Zhao Guomin had originally handed the task of looking after the trees over to the eldest brother.
After this incident, the boss felt very guilty.
Zhao Guomin patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't think too much. The most urgent thing is to find out why the sapling died."
Before returning, he went to find an agricultural expert, but unfortunately he was hired away and there was no one else in this small county who understood the matter.
I can only explore it myself.
Song Xiaojuan looked at the dead seedlings. Some of them had only a trunk left and all their leaves had fallen off, while others had not lost all their leaves and their leaves were yellow and their roots were rotten.
She used to grow vegetables when she was a child. Some vegetables would easily burn to death if they were fertilized too much. The symptoms of this sapling are somewhat similar.
"Do you fertilize it regularly?" Song Xiaojuan asked Zhao Guomin.
He shook his head: "I just sprinkled some sheep manure when I was planting, so what?"
Song Xiaojuan expressed her thoughts, and Zhao Guomin went to ask the boss again. The boss said that he had only watered the plants and did not apply fertilizer.
Song Xiaojuan thought she was overthinking it. After all, she was not a professional, so she didn't mention it again.
The second and third sons came to help, and Zhao Guomin went to buy a batch of new seedlings to plant.
Song Xiaojuan didn't go back either, but helped him at home. When she came down the mountain at night, her hands were covered with blisters.
Zhao Guomin used a needle to pry it open for her.
The two of them lived in the old house. When the old lady heard that the fourth child had settled down at home, she insisted on coming back to live.
Song Xiaojuan had no objection.
The old lady woke up in the morning and saw Zhao Guomin lighting a fire in the outer room while Song Xiaojuan was sleeping on the kang. She was shocked: "Oh my! This is so embarrassing! What kind of wife is so lazy? She doesn't even cook breakfast in the morning and still orders the husband to work. How can she have any shame?"
She has sequelae of cerebral thrombosis and speaks a little slurredly.
Song Xiaojuan was too tired and slept very soundly. She heard some howling outside, but she couldn't make out what was said. She ignored it, covered her head with the quilt, turned over and continued to sleep.
The old lady saw it and thought she was deliberately provoking her. She was about to explode.
Zhao Guomin stopped her: "She worked with me all day in the mountains yesterday, and her feet and hands are covered with blisters. I asked her to sleep a little longer this morning. Why are you scolding her here? You must be afraid that the neighbors won't know about it so early in the morning." When Zhao Guomin was not smiling, her expression was particularly grim, and the old lady was a little scared of her now.
Her voice was lowered. "Whose daughter-in-law doesn't work? Only she's so pretentious! She grew up doing farm work, and after just two days in the city, she thinks she's a city girl! You've spoiled her."
Zhao Guomin lowered his head to light the fire and said, "She's my wife. If I don't spoil her, who else can I spoil?"
Li Cuifen: ...How could I give birth to such a useless son.
Zhao Guomin changed the subject appropriately: "Your health is so bad, the doctor told you not to get excited. You can't control your temper, you get angry every day, and you still think you're okay..."
Li Cuifen stared at her fourth son for a moment before she said, "I'm always angry with the third son's wife at home. I want to live with you."
Zhao Guomin added some firewood to the stove and turned around to refuse.
The moment he saw Li Cuifen, he couldn't say it out loud.
The old lady has lost a lot of weight and her hair has turned completely white.
There was an old lady who used to be very clean and would change her clothes when they got dirty. But now she has been wearing this piece of clothes for several days without changing it.
She was not feeling well, and the eldest son's wife had her own children to take care of, so no one had time to wash her.
He suddenly couldn't say those words. If Zhao Shen were alive, it would be fine. Now she was all alone and helpless. It would be a lie for Zhao Guomin to say that he was not moved.
"Where's the money I gave you? Didn't I ask you to buy milk powder? Why didn't you buy it?"
Li Cuifen suddenly whispered: "No, Mom is very kind to you. She knows it's not easy for you to run a business on your own, so she will give it to you when you need it." In fact, she spent some money on several grandchildren, but most of it was kept for the fourth child.
She is worried because the fourth child has no children.
Zhao Guomin suddenly felt a little uncomfortable: "No need, I have money, just spend it if I give it to you, don't be reluctant."
"Well, Lao Si, you're quite old now. When are you going to have a child? All the kids your age in the village are already gone. That guy..."
At this point, she glanced into the house and said, "Wenhua in the front yard, his daughter is three years old. He went home with the child a while ago. Now she's amazing. She even helps her mother with the work in the fields."
Zhao Guomin didn't care. He was thinking about the child. Song Xiaojuan and the others were always busy and no one put this matter on the agenda.
It would be nice to have a child. I wonder who the child would look like.
When Song Xiaojuan got up, she saw that Li Cuifen's nose was not a nose and her face was not a face, but she didn't pay any attention.
As long as she is not provoked and her interests are not involved, the old lady can do whatever she wants. She can eat and drink as she pleases, and Zhao Guomin will take the lead if there is any problem.
So usually, if the old lady didn't talk to her, she wouldn't say anything.
During dinner, Zhao Guomin told her that the old lady wanted to live in the county town.
"Where will she live? Rent a house for her and hire a nanny." It was impossible for Song Xiaojuan to live with the old lady.
But she had no objection to paying the money. Although she didn't get along with the old lady, she would not be cruel to her and treat her badly.
Zhao Guomin also thought so, but when it comes to taking the money, the second brother may not have any objection, but the other two may not.
At noon, while several families were together, Zhao Guomin looked at the old lady and said, "Mom, why are you packing clothes?"
The old lady was stunned. Didn’t I say I was going to your house? Why are you asking?
"I'll live with you." The old lady said it herself following Zhao Guomin's words.
The eldest son's wife's face immediately turned bad: "Mom, I treated you badly and you went to the fourth son's place without even saying a word. I wonder what you think my wife has done to be so immoral."
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became wrong.
