Qian Shulan also reminded Wang Shouli, "After you transfer your household registration, remember to tell the police station that you want to apply for state-run rent. Then you can also transfer Dana and Xiaomei's household registration here."
Wang Shouli opened his mouth in surprise, "So the house is not ours anymore?"
Qian Shulan spread her hands and said helplessly, "You all need to become permanent employees, and I don't have that much money. I can only use this method. Let's do it this way."
Wang Shouli lowered his head and took a long time to respond.
Looking at Wang Shouli's back, Qian Shulan rubbed her face. She couldn't always let her elder brother take the blame for her, right? She still had to rationalize her money.
And what happened last night also hit her hard. It was too dangerous. If someone passed by and saw so much food, it would be hard not to notice it. She was still too careless.
She had always considered herself an ordinary person, but an ordinary person like her could be followed. If it was a professional like Qian Weihan next time, she would be exposed in a minute. She must be careful next time, and it would be best to bring Qian Weihan along, as he has sharp eyes and can help her find loopholes and fill in the gaps.
After figuring it out, Qian Shulan returned to the room and found Zhengguo had already woken up. Qian Shulan took the mercury thermometer on the bedside table and measured his temperature again.
"37.8 degrees. Still having a slight fever!" Qian Shulan touched his forehead and took out a notebook to record it.
Zhengguo tilted his head and looked at Qian Shulan who was worried about him, and his heart felt warm.
By the evening, Jungkook’s temperature had returned to normal.
Early the next morning, the doctor informed them that they could be discharged from the hospital.
Qian Shulan took Zhengguo to the police station to inquire about the progress of the case.
The police officer immediately told them the latest developments with a smile on his face, "We have caught the man, but we still need to interrogate him. He is a repeat offender and has kidnapped many little boys in the past. This time, it is all thanks to you."
Qian Shulan nodded.
The police officer looked at the other person's departing back, and thought that the criminal was talking nonsense when he remembered that the old lady used witchcraft to kick him into the sea. When he thought that the boat had also disappeared, he felt that this matter might not be that simple.
The prisoner must have an accomplice who drove the boat away. The reason why he brought up all this feudal superstition was to confuse them. It seems that they are still too polite to him. He must be tried again.
Qian Shulan left the police station and took Zhengguo to the Grain and Oil Bureau.
The carriage had been parked in the family area of the Grain and Oil Bureau.
Fortunately, Wang Shouli has been helping to take care of me.
After leaving the family quarters, Qian Shulan went to the North City Grain Store, parked the carriage at the door, and tied the reins to the street lamp in front of the door.
The two went in to say hello to Jiang Yuying. Qian Shulan was worried about Zhengguo staying outside alone, fearing that he would be left alone again.
"I'm taking Zhengguo back. The production team still has work to do."
"Okay." Jiang Yuying escorted the two of them out.
At this time, Director Chen came out and called Qian Shulan, wanting to talk to her alone.
Jiang Yuying had no choice but to pull Zhengguo to the side.
Qian Shulan looked at Director Chen. Would he want to buy more food? Was it sold out so quickly
While she was in a daze, Director Chen had already come out of the house with a large sack of something. Qian Shulan took it with some curiosity and looked down, "Is this wheat bran?"
Director Chen nodded and said, "I heard from Yuying that your production team is raising pigs. This wheat bran is just enough for you to raise pigs. This is a thank you gift to you."
Qian Shulan curled her lips and said, "Okay, thank you!"
Director Chen waved his hand and said, "I should be the one thanking you! The person you introduced is really honest and the price is not expensive. I will come to you again if I need anything in the future."
Qian Shulan nodded, "Okay! I'll leave then!"
Director Chen nodded.
Qian Shulan put a sack of wheat bran on the carriage, put Zhengguo on the carriage, put a straw hat on him, and started driving the carriage.
Qian Shulan drove the carriage to Wangjia Village. Although she encountered militiamen along the way, they did not make things difficult for her because they saw that there was only wheat bran in her sack and let her go.
As soon as the carriage arrived at Wangjia Village, many villagers were seen chatting there. A person ran out of the crowd, and when he got closer, he found out it was Qian Weihan. He hurried over and pulled her to the pig farm, "Did you forget about the pigs after staying in the county town for so many days?"
Qian Shulan slapped her forehead and thought, didn’t I forget about it
But even if she remembered, it was useless because she couldn't leave.
"Have you finished eating the pig grass?"
Qian Weihan has been extremely anxious since yesterday. His mouth is starting to blister. He nodded heavily, "That's right! Those pigs have been spoiled by the good stuff and don't like to eat the food. They have been hungry all night and just now they started to show signs of eating."
Qian Shulan called him, "Go drive the tractor first"
Qian Weihan nodded randomly.
Qian Shulan went back to take the bag of bran off the carriage and asked the people at the entrance of the village to help her return the carriage, leaving Zhengguo to go home first.
Then they got on Qian Weihan's tractor and started heading towards the outer village.
After walking for about ten hours, he returned with the tractor's cabin filled with pig feed.
As soon as the tractor drove into the pig farm, the person in charge of raising the pigs hurried over to carry some pig grass to feed the pigs.
He Cuilan ran over angrily to find Qian Shulan and asked her to judge, "Third sister-in-law, tell me if this guy is mentally ill. There was no more pig grass, so I asked him to go to another production team to collect it, but he refused to go. The pigs were crying out with hunger, but he pretended not to know and acted like a dead person. Tell me, isn't this infuriating?"
Qian Weihan was embarrassed to be scolded in public by her. Qian Shulan felt guilty because this matter had nothing to do with Qian Weihan. She grabbed He Cuilan's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, I want to tell you, I went to the county town to do some work, and our Zhengguo was almost abducted by human traffickers."
He Cuilan was really attracted and had forgotten about the pig. She quickly asked, "What's going on?"
Qian Weihan didn't care about being embarrassed, and quickly came over to ask, "How did the child get lost? How do you adults take care of the child?"
Qian Shulan then told the whole story.
Others began to sigh.
"I thought our country was peaceful, how could such a thing still happen?" He Cuilan stamped her feet. Thinking of how her friends were sold when she was a child, she was very angry at those human traffickers.
Qian Weihan looked around and glared at her, "What are you talking about? Be careful not to be overheard."
He Cuilan suddenly came to her senses and quickly shut up.
Seeing that the two had stopped arguing, Qian Shulan winked at Qian Weihan, then pulled He Cuilan over and started asking about things in the fields.
"I think this day is going to be bad. The water in my new well is getting muddier and muddier, and I think the water level is starting to drop again."
Qian Shulan's heart sank. This means the drought has worsened. It hasn't rained this year. So is there going to be a severe drought in their area
When she got home, her family all gathered around her, asking her questions. Sun Daqin also came running over from outside, and was so excited to see her mother-in-law coming home, "Mom, did you know? I heard that several people from the work group were beaten up by someone who took the lead."
Qian Shulan was surprised. "Who told you that?"
After arriving at the county seat, Qian Shulan learned that it was not only the people in the commune who were suppressed by the work team, but also the county seat. County Chief Guo and Secretary Pan had both been suspended from their jobs.
Since the working group has so much power, how could anyone dare to attack them? These people are very afraid of death and are always accompanied by militiamen when they go out.
"You don't know this, right? This is true. I was also shocked when I heard about it. These people are really brave." Sun Daqin clicked his tongue.
Qian Shulan sighed in her heart. If she wasn’t forced into a desperate situation, who would be willing to do such a life-threatening thing
"What happened next? Was the person caught?"
Sun Daqin shook her head, "No! Don't you think these people are too powerful? There is no trace at all. I heard that they are divided into two groups, one group of people leads the militia away, and the other group runs up to fight. This method seems to be called..." She pondered and suddenly a light bulb flashed, and she clapped her hands, "It's called making a feint to the east and attacking in the west!"
Qian Shulan frowned. Draw away the militia? This is no small matter. These militias have guns. If they chase them too fast, they will shoot directly.
Without professional skills, you wouldn’t dare to do such a dangerous thing.
She suddenly thought of Qian Weihan. He was quite skilled. He had made military achievements when he was young. If it weren't for his disability, he might have become a general.
Ever since he took the longevity pill, his body has become stronger than when he was young. So could it be him
She didn't even bother to eat and ran out of the house to find Qian Weihan.
Qian Weihan was feeding the pigs at the pig farm. Seeing the pigs regain their appetite, a smile spread across his face.
“Brother!”
Hearing the call, Qian Weihan turned around and smiled at Qian Shulan, "Little sister is here!"
Qian Shulan looked around and saw no one was around, so she came over and asked in a low voice, "Brother, did you take someone to beat someone up?"
Hearing her say this, Qian Weihan narrowed his eyes slightly, a murderous look flashed in his eyes, and he snorted, "I only beat them up, which is already a bargain for them."
Qian Shulan didn't expect that this man would still be so impulsive at such an old age. "What if you get caught by them?"
"It's okay! Don't you know my skills?" Qian Weihan tried to comfort her. Seeing that she was staring at him blankly, he did not hide the truth from her. "During the two days you were away, the commune held another meeting. Except for our Wangjia Village, the production team leaders of the other villages were all sentenced as bad elements and were criticized, struggled against, and paraded through the streets."
Qian Shulan was stunned for a moment.
Qian Weihan sighed heavily, his eyes reddened, and he said indignantly, "During the days when Minghua was locked up, he only ate a bowl of porridge a day. When he came back, his ribs were clearly visible. How could I tolerate this! Minghua has been filial to me all these years. He treated me like his own father. It hurts me to see him like that!"
Qian Shulan didn't know what to say. She had never had a child, and her grandmother had been the best to her since she was a child. If her grandmother was bullied, she probably couldn't stand it. She might even want to kill him. She patted his shoulder to comfort him.
When Wang Shouren got home, his eyes were red, obviously he had been crying. Zhengguo stood by, and Sun Daqin hugged Zhengguo and cried loudly, "You brainless man! What are you doing out at night! Your grandma has something to do, why did you have to follow her! If you get lost, your mother will be dead!"
Zhengguo also blamed himself, frowned, and admitted his mistake, "I will be obedient in the future and never run around again."
The little donkey looked at him worriedly.
Wang Shouren was so angry that he wanted to beat him but couldn't bear to do it, so he just sulked over there. When he saw his mother coming in, he said, "Mom, this kid is so bold!"
Qian Shulan waved her hands. "He already knows he was wrong! He was locked up in a house by human traffickers and was scared to death. If he doesn't learn his lesson, there's no hope for him. We should all take this as a warning. When children go out to play, we must keep a close eye on them and don't let them go out alone. And be careful in the village."
Wang Shouren felt distressed and angry with himself, so he didn't go with them.
Others were also terrified, it was too scary. They were almost separated.
They all nodded in agreement.
A few days later, Cao Chuanzheng, who had asked for leave to go home, finally came back.
Qian Shulan finally understood why Cao Chuanzheng had been raised to be such an ignorant person.
Cao Chuanzheng's mother looked like a bookish woman, but the smile on her face was very faint, and she seemed a bit like a scholar, the kind of person who does academic research.
His father always had a stern face, a straight back, clear eyes, and a kind of Bao Qingtian aura. He looked like a teacher of science and engineering. Most of them were the kind who spent years buried in the laboratory.
The two men gave off an aura that said "keep away from strangers", and Qian Shulan didn't even dare to step forward and greet them.
But he did come forward, and Father Cao stretched out his right hand, "Comrade Qian Shulan, I heard that you made a lot of efforts for us to come here this time, and I really appreciate your help."
His serious expression and solemn words made Qian Shulan feel flattered, as if she had done something extraordinary. She quickly reached out and shook his hand, "You're welcome! I just think your child has a good temper."
Father Cao glared at Cao Chuanzheng and said, "My son is so naughty and must have caused a lot of trouble for your production team."
Qian Shulan let go of her hand and looked around. Seeing that everyone looked confused, she whispered, "Can you please stop talking in such a flowery way? Aren't you afraid of being sued?"
Father Cao looked at her innocently, obviously not understanding what she meant.
Cao's mother didn't seem to be as rigid as Cao's father. She said to Qian Shulan, "Big sister, thank you so much. Our old Cao has a bit of a weird temper. No matter how many times I told him, it was useless. You have to change in the future. If you can't speak, don't speak."
Father Cao pursed his lips tightly, looking a little aggrieved. Qian Shulan felt so choked up that her stomach ached when she saw such a serious man suddenly making such a childish move.
Wang Shouquan and the members of the commune arranged for them to live near the school. "Now the trees cannot be cut down, so we can only inconvenience the two of you to live near the school."
This time, Cao's father did not speak. Cao's mother answered for him, "Sure! We are not picky. As long as we have a place to live, that's enough."
Qian Shulan and Wang Shouquan took them there and told Cao's mother about the things happening in the village.
Cao's mother suddenly felt relieved and a smile appeared on her face.
When Qian Shulan came out of the school, all the members surrounded her and asked her questions.
The noise was so loud that it made her head hurt. She raised her hand and said to everyone, "This is a teacher we specially invited from the university to teach our children. Please encourage your children to work harder."
When everyone heard that it was a university teacher, they all exclaimed.
Wang Ligui's face turned black. What does it have to do with these two university teachers and his daughter-in-law
Is she just going against him
September soon arrived, and Zhengguo and Xiaomaolu went to report to the technical secondary school in the county town.
Wangjia Village began to water the fields in full swing.
The crops we planted this time were corn and sweet potatoes. Because the land was dry and cracked, even though these two crops are drought-resistant, they still needed watering to get a good harvest.
For the sake of their own stomachs, everyone cheered up and started to water the fields.
