After An An finished his exams, he had a great time. He went out to play ball with his classmates every day and didn't come back until dinner time.
As for the major he applied for, he was very casual and finally chose accounting at random.
Accounting is a very popular major, so Zhang Weifang and Lu Shi had no objections.
Lu Shi’s clothing store has been open for more than a year, and the customer flow has basically stabilized. He then rented a storefront next door to sell children’s clothing.
After selling clothes for a year, Lu Shi realized that women's and children's money was the easiest to earn, so he felt that children's clothing stores must have advantages.
An An was temporarily in charge of the children's clothing store. Lu Shi hired two more clerks. However, he planned to train a store manager, otherwise he was afraid that he would be too busy in the future.
In September, An An went to a city more than a thousand kilometers away to attend university. Zhang Weifang and Lu Shi went to see him off together. When they left, both of them had tears in their eyes.
An An is a carefree person. She didn't feel her parents' feelings at all and had already gone out to play with her roommates.
When lying in bed at night, An An suddenly felt homesick and lonely. He missed home.
In the darkness, An An was secretly wiping her tears in her bed. In fact, everyone else was the same. It was the first day away from home, and everyone was sad.
After two years of hard work, Hu Zi has now grown into a mature criminal policeman. His eyes are full of sharpness, and he is completely different from his previous naive appearance.
After returning from other provinces, Zhang Weifang called Huzi back home:
"Huzi, you are already 22 years old. It's time to find a partner."
"Mom, I'm very busy with work right now. How can I have time to find a partner? Let nature take its course. Besides, I'm still young."
In fact, Zhang Weifang was just talking casually. She was a little uncomfortable with both children not being at home, so she called Hu Zi back.
One night in October, Chen Yuying quietly came to Zhang Weifang's house:
"Weifang, do you have malted milk at home? Milk powder is also fine, I can borrow some."
"Yes, I'll get it for you. I happen to have a new can at home."
The price of malted milk has come down now and it has become a common nutritional product, so almost every household has it.
"Who wants to drink?" Zhang Weifang asked.
It seems a bit strange that he suddenly came to borrow nutritional supplements late at night.
Chen Yuying didn't say anything directly, but left with the malted milk.
"I'll come and talk to you tomorrow. I'm leaving now."
The next day, Chen Yuying came again. She was happy but hesitant. Her expression changed again and again. Finally, she said:
"Weifang, my Xiaohua is not a good person. She just married a random man in the south. Now the child is just one month old and he sent it back to me."
"Ah? Asking you to help raise the child?"
"Weifang, to be honest, I haven't given birth to a son, and I've always felt insecure. This time, my grandson is back, and I want to raise him as a son. What do you think?"
Zhang Weifang didn't expect her to have such an idea. She didn't know how to say it, but she knew that her son and grandson were always different. However, if the child was filial, he would be very close to them and would not ignore them in the future.
Chen Yuying didn't want Zhang Weifang to help her make a decision. In fact, she had already thought about it, but she was still a little unsure.
She knew that her daughter was a good-for-nothing, and this child might become the common support of her and Zhang Xiaohua in the future.
From that day on, Chen Yuying began her happy life of raising a child. With the arrival of her grandson, the relationship between Chen Yuying and her husband improved a lot. They revolved around the child every day and had no time to quarrel.
At the end of the year, Zhang Xiaohua came back with her man. To be honest, her husband is very handsome, 1.83 meters tall, with very three-dimensional facial features. Everyone who sees him will take a second look at him.
After the couple came back, they lived directly in Chen Yuying's house. Zhang Xiaohua didn't want to go out to work, so she asked her father to find a job for her man Zhang Wang in the coal mine.
The salary for working in a coal mine is not low, but it is extremely tiring. The mines are relatively small nowadays, and one has to bend over to dig coal. After working there for a while, Zhang Wang didn't want to go anymore.
It was already 1985, and the economy was developing rapidly in all aspects. There were a lot of temporary workers and private recruitment, so Zhang Wang secretly left the coal mine and found another job.
The coal mine pays wages on the 15th of every month. When Zhang Xiaohua went to collect her wages, she found out that Zhang Wang had resigned. The couple had a big fight, which almost resulted in a death. In the end, they were both admitted to the hospital.
After being discharged from the hospital, Zhang Xiaohua scolded her husband for being incompetent every day, and Zhang Wang also disliked her for not being virtuous. The two of them had a big quarrel every three days and a small quarrel every five days, and became the weirdos in the alley.
Chen Yuying thought the two of them were shameful, and she also looked down on Zhang Wang. Apart from his good looks, he had nothing else to show for it. So, Chen Yuying instigated Zhang Xiaohua to divorce him.
Just when the two were about to divorce, Zhang Xiaohua became pregnant again. Now the country has family planning policy, and if they want to have a second child they must pay a fine, so neither of them wants this child.
Chen Yuying was a smart person. She felt that abortion was harmful to the body, so she decided to let her daughter give birth to the child.
After the child is born, they can give the child away and get some money for the child's milk powder. No matter how you look at it, it's not a loss.
Chen Yuying felt that Zhang Weifang was reliable, so she immediately asked her to help find a good family for her child.
This was the first time Zhang Weifang had encountered such a request. She had always been helping others find partners and had never thought that one day she would have to find a partner for her child.
She and Chen Yuying had gotten along pretty well over the years, so she had no choice but to agree to help ask, but she didn't dare to promise any specific details.
It just so happened that Zhang Weifang went to the unit and told Xiao Hu about the situation. Xiao Hu immediately said that she wanted the child.
One of Xiao Hu's relatives happened to be childless, and the couple wanted to adopt one, but they didn't want to adopt someone they knew, so they kept asking around.
The couple are from the village. They think it doesn’t matter whether the child is a boy or a girl, as long as the child is healthy.
In September, Zhang Xiaohua gave birth to a lovely chubby girl. She gave the child to Zhang Weifang without even looking at her.
Zhang Weifang gave Xiao Hu the five hundred yuan that she had prepared in advance and left with the child.
In fact, in this era of family planning, many people give away their extra daughters in order to have sons, so children are not valuable nowadays.
Many people just want to find a good family for their children, so they won’t charge any money at all.
It's rare to see someone like Zhang Xiaohua accepting money, but this also makes both parties feel at ease.
Not long after Zhang Xiaohua finished her confinement, she spent all the 500 yuan she had. Neither she nor Zhang Wang felt sorry for spending this free money, and they bought a lot of clothes together.
