"Sister Yunyun, I know that you and Zhitie had some disagreements because of the factory manager election, but that's all in the past. You shouldn't mind, right?"
Chen Yunyun: ? ? ?
When did she first come into contact with Xu Zhitie?
What is Xu Zhitie's wife saying? She doesn't seem to understand.
Seeing Chen Yunyun's somewhat puzzled expression, Zhang Xiao assumed that Chen Yunyun was still holding a grudge about what happened before. She pursed her lips and said, "Sister Yunyun, our Zhitie didn't mean to compete with you."
"I'm giving you this watch as a thank you gift, and I'm also giving you Xiaobao's bracelet. You can put it on the baby."
Zhang Xiao moved swiftly, quickly taking off her brand-new watch from her own wrist and then removing the gold bracelet from Xiao Bao's wrist, handing it to Chen Yunyun.
Chen Yunyun took a half step back and didn't take her things.
Judging from Zhang Xiao's reaction, Xu Zhitie must have said something to Zhang Xiao that made her give gifts like crazy, as if she was afraid that Chen Yunyun would hold it against her.
"Xu Zhitie, how do you always talk about me?"
Chen Yunyun was a little curious. She didn't like beating around the bush, so she went straight to the point and asked.
Zhang Xiao stammered, "Well, it's nothing. He just praised you for being very resourceful and capable."
Perhaps fearing Chen Yunyun wouldn't believe her, Zhang Xiao stepped forward and affectionately took Chen Yunyun's hand, "Sister Yunyun, thank you for saving me and Xiaobao. I really like you. Can we be friends?"
Zhang Xiao's attempt to change the subject was so obvious that Chen Yunyun didn't expose her. Just then, the bus arrived.
Because of the encounter with human traffickers, Zhang Xiao was tense the entire time in the car, looking around with vigilance.
Zhang Xiao chose to sit in the same row as Chen Yunyun; only by sitting next to Chen Yunyun could she feel more relaxed.
During the four or five-hour drive, she didn't dare to sleep and kept trying to talk to Chen Yunyun.
After spending half a day together, Chen Yunyun finally figured out Zhang Xiao's personality.
She appears arrogant on the surface, but is actually very gentle in personality; to put it bluntly, she is a typical naive and innocent girl.
No wonder she was used and exploited by Xu Zhitie in the original book, then abandoned after being taken advantage of, and ultimately committed suicide.
Chen Yunyun's gaze fell on the sleeping Xiao Bao. The original book did not describe the child's fate in much detail, but according to Chen Yunyun's deduction, he should have committed suicide by burning charcoal with his mother.
Since being forced to become a mother, Chen Yunyun has become soft-hearted. Facing the innocent mother and son in front of her, and thinking about their tragic future, Chen Yunyun sighed.
She took the initiative to strike up a conversation with Zhang Xiao, "Are you taking your child to see Xu Zhitie? We're going the same way, we can go together."
"Really? Thank you so much!" After a pause, Zhang Xiaocai answered Chen Yunyun's first question, "Zhitie went back to his hometown, and I was worried that he wouldn't eat or sleep well there, so I brought the child back to see him."
Chen Yunyun snorted. If Old Mrs. Liu treated Xu Zhitie like a precious treasure, would she really let him eat and drink poorly?
Seeing that Chen Yunyun didn't react much when she mentioned Xu Zhitie, Zhang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "Back then, I disagreed with Zhitie going to the countryside."
"Although we can work in the raw material factory, we are always separated most of the time. The child is young now and needs his father."
“The countryside is old and dilapidated, and there isn’t even an electric light. I’m really worried that he won’t get used to it, and I’m even more worried that he will suffer.”
"But Zhitie refused. He said the most important thing for a man is to be down-to-earth, hardworking, and willing to work hard without complaint."
"He also said that he would support me and the children through his own efforts. I believe him and am willing to support him."
At this point, a happy smile appeared on Zhang Xiao's face, making her look like a little woman in love.
“I heard that his brother had an accident and was hospitalized. I gave him a few hundred yuan when he left, but I don’t know if it was enough for him.”
Seeing that Zhang Xiao was already deeply immersed in the relationship, acting as if her husband was everything to her, Chen Yunyun knew that if she tried to persuade him now, Zhang Xiao would probably not listen.
So Chen Yunyun pursed her lips and said nothing.
After learning about Zhang Xiao's ending in the original book, Chen Yunyun had some intention of helping her.
But you should tell her directly that the husband you love with all your heart will later abandon his wife and children, drive your father to his death, and leave you, your elderly mother, and your young son heartbroken and with nowhere to turn...
Zhang Xiao not only wouldn't believe it, but might even be on guard, so this matter needs to be considered carefully.
Upon arriving at Xiyun Commune, Zhang Xiao went to the health center to find Xu Zhitie, so Chen Yunyun took the child and separated from them.
Finally back in familiar surroundings, Chen Yunyun took her tickets and money and bought a lot of things.
There was pork, candy, old hen, and a lot of oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar.
After Rong Yan left, no one went up the mountain to catch wild cattle and sheep every day anymore, so they hadn't eaten meat for a long time, especially Xu Jingsheng, who drooled at the sight of pork.
"Mom, I'm hungry..."
Chen Yunyun flicked Xu Jingsheng's nose. "You brat, you're lying through your teeth. I just fed you some sesame cakes and you said you couldn't eat them. Now your stomach is empty so quickly?"
Xu Jingsheng didn't feel embarrassed at all. Instead, he nodded his little head confidently and said, "Mother, I'm hungry."
"Mother, I miss your braised pork. Let's go home early."
"Okay, okay! Let's go home!" How could Chen Yunyun refuse the request of her three little ones?
Just as she came out of the supply and marketing cooperative, she saw some chicks for sale. Chen Yunyun waved her hand and bought five, then returned to Xujia Village with her load of stuff.
Chen Yunyun brought a lot of things back from the capital this time, including clothes and shoes for the children given by Liu Jiyuan, as well as a lot of subsidies and rewards from the research institute.
In addition, Mr. Xue also gifted her a small courtyard house in a hutong in his private capacity.
A traditional courtyard house in the capital! This was Chen Yunyun's biggest gain from this trip!
At the time, Chen Yunyun felt it was too precious and refused to accept it.
But Professor Xue was adamant. He was a native of the capital, owned many properties, and the research institute had also allocated him a number of houses. So a courtyard house was nothing to Professor Xue.
Chen Yunyun couldn't refuse, and accepted it with tears in her eyes (but didn't).
Looking at the property deed in her hand, with her name written on it, Chen Yunyun's face was full of smiles. Finally, she reluctantly put the property deed into a prominent position in her space (storage ring).
Upon learning of Chen Yunyun's return, Captain Zhang Shun came to see her. "You're back. Did anything happen on the way?"
