Chapter 170
At noon, Uncle Xu and his family came back. They were very happy to see Xu Di and her daughter, especially Xu Jia, who liked children.
After a while, Nuannuan became familiar with her aunt and was taken by Xu Jia to play with the children from the neighborhood.
"Xu Qiang, you are going to graduate soon, right?"
"Well, there aren't many students left in the class. Some of them are working, and some of them are married."
Xu Di also knew that during the graduation season every year, those who were old enough would find a suitable partner, get married directly, and avoid going to the countryside.
Of course, such people are still in the minority.
Most high school graduates are not old enough to get a marriage certificate.
"What about you? What are your plans?"
"Sister, I will stay at home and work first, then ask about job openings.
I don't have to face the problem of going to the countryside, so I'm not in a hurry. ”
Xu Qiang was not in a hurry. He didn't want to be a soldier because it was too restrictive.
"That's fine. First, learn how to do accounting from Grandpa. Don't lose your books. Learning is still very important. I, your sister, still insist on reading books."
Xu Di really reads books. She found all the high school textbooks and the set of math, physics and chemistry books, all seventeen books in total.
The early bird catches the worm; a good memory is not as good as a bad pen. This is what people with low talent like Xu Di firmly believe.
In the past two years, she has hand-copied seven or eight books, seventeen in total. Before the resumption of the college entrance examination, she was able to copy all of them and knew them by heart.
"Sister, I remember it. Although I am not very good at studying, I also listened carefully to the teacher's lectures."
"Okay, I'll keep an eye on it. If there's a suitable opportunity, I'll call you back."
“Thank you, sister, but don’t ask your brother-in-law to use his connections.
I have already asked my brother-in-law about my eldest brother's affairs. If I ask him again, it will be difficult for you to live in your husband's family. That won't do. ”
Xu Qiang is seventeen years old. There are many quarrels between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law in the brigade, most of which are because the daughters-in-law take things back to their parents' home.
"You little brat, you know a lot."
"Sister, in our team, many daughters-in-law were beaten because they stole things from their parents' home."
Xu Di was amused and laughed, Xu Qiang's expression was so funny.
"Xiao Di, Er Qiang's words make sense, don't take it lightly.
Our family’s conditions are pretty good now, and Erqiang is young, so we just have to wait for opportunities. ”
Grandpa also spoke up. He didn't want his granddaughter to have a hard time or feel inferior to others in her husband's family.
"Yes, I understand."
Xu Di didn't want Zhang Chaoyang to use his connections. She just wanted to see if there were any opportunities around her for Xu Qiang to learn a skill.
After lunch, Xu Di wanted to go back.
"Mom, come again next time."
Nuannuan was going crazy following Xu Jia, and her clothes were all dirty.
"Okay, I'll come again next time."
Xu Qiang was going to send Xu Di back to the city, and Grandma Xu brought him a lot of side dishes and twenty eggs, which she put in a small basket.
"No need to send me off, I can carry it myself, you still have to go back to school in the afternoon."
Xu Di held Nuannuan’s hand and carried the basket into the car.
"Nuannuan, come play with your aunt next time."
Fourteen-year-old Xu Jia is also in junior high school. As she has three brothers in her family, she was spoiled and grew up with a cheerful and lively personality.
"Goodbye, Auntie."
Nuannuan also waved her hand. She liked her aunt.
The mother and daughter rode in the car and had a bumpy ride back to the compound.
"Xu Di, where did you come from?"
"I went to my grandma's house."
There were many people chatting in the compound. Xu Di said a few words and then hurried home. Nuannuan was sleepy.
After arriving home, she asked Aunt Wu to pack up the things. She changed Nuannuan's clothes first. The little guy was so sleepy that he was dozing off.
"Grandma Xiaodi is such a kind person. She brought so many eggs and side dishes."
Aunt Wu picked out the eggs, there were more than forty of them.
She didn't know that part of it was smuggled out from the space by Xu Di, and she thought it was all given by Grandma Xu.
"Well, they are all good."
Grandma Qian also saw it and knew what was going on.
"Grandma, Xuan He didn't come over this week?"
Nuannuan fell asleep, and Xu Di also changed his clothes. He planned to wash the clothes of the mother and daughter, especially Nuannuan's, which were covered with dirt.
"Xuan He didn't come. Maybe something happened to your elder brother."
Although Grandma Qian likes Xuan He very much, she is very rational and knows that everyone has his or her own life.
"Maybe Big Brother has met the right person. Take Xuan He to find out."
Xu Di was really saying it casually. Zhang Chaolang had been divorced for several years, and his ex-sister-in-law had already given birth to a child.
Although he said he is not in a hurry to remarry, it is hard to say how long a man can last with a child.
Comrade Zhang Chaolang, who was talked about by Xu Di and his grandmother, actually met someone.
But it’s not a newcomer, it’s an old one.
Zhang Chaolang took Xuan He and originally wanted to go shopping for clothes.
It's a change of season, and Xuan He's clothes are a little small.
"Chao Lang?"
The familiar yet unfamiliar call from behind made Zhang Chaolang's body stiffen.
"Chao Lang, is that you?"
Zhang Chaolang turned around and looked at the woman not far away. Her appearance had not changed, but she had become much thinner and looked more fragile.
"Hongmei, why are you here?"
Zhang Chaolang's voice was a little unnatural. He didn't expect that they would meet again.
"I am now living with my child in the company's dormitory, which is relatively close to here.
Why are you here too? ”
Bai Hongmei didn't know that Zhang Chaolang had been transferred to another position and thought he was still living in the military compound.
“I live not far away, so I bring my children here to buy clothes.
Xuan He, say hello, this is Aunt Bai. ”
Xuan He is six years old now and can understand a lot of things. This is the aunt his father knows.
He was a little resistant and didn't want to say hello.
"Xuan He, why aren't you talking?"
"Aunt Bai."
Xuan He spoke in a low voice; he didn't want to and wasn't willing to call anyone.
"The child is a little shy, don't mind it."
Zhang Chaolang didn’t know what was wrong with Xuan He. Whenever he met someone in the staff quarters, he would take the initiative to say hello.
"It's okay, my child is like this too, he doesn't like to make a sound around strangers."
Bai Hongmei smiled and looked very gentle.
"Dad, let's go. After buying clothes, I still want to go to my great-grandmother's house."
"Okay, got it. Hongmei, I'm leaving now. We'll talk later."
"Okay, let's talk later."
Zhang Chaolang left, and Bai Hongmei stood there for a long time without leaving.
She is now divorced and has a child, and her salary is enough to support both of them.
It was because of the matter regarding the child's grandfather and father that everyone was talking about it and pointing fingers at the mother and daughter, which had a great impact on Jun Hao.
Also, although the company did not punish her, she knew that future promotions, housing allocations, and advancement would have nothing to do with her.
She knew that Zhang Chaolang was divorced from what her former classmates told her.
I just didn't know whether he remarried or not, so I didn't bother him.
Today, watching him taking the children shopping for clothes alone, her heart was moved.
Since they live nearby, they will have more opportunities to meet in the future, and their fate may be continued.
Zhang Chaolang's background and family background can protect her and her daughter.
In the past, Zhang Chaolang’s mother looked down on her, thinking that her family was small and had a heavy burden.
Now, we are all at the starting point again, and his mother probably won't object anymore.
Even if there is opposition, as long as she holds Zhang Chaolang's heart, everything else will be fine.
Bai Hongmei thought a lot during this period of time and decided not to go shopping. Instead, she asked someone about Zhang Chaolang's situation.
