After Qian Shulan talked to Xiaolian, she was still a little worried.
This child seems to have inherited some of Li Chunhua's brains, but is not as smart as her two sisters.
Qian Shulan was really worried that she would be cheated. After all, she was only seventeen years old, and Li Chunhua was not a competent mother and did not care much for her.
Don't be fooled by a man's few words.
Xiaolian probably doesn't dare to date someone in private given her courage, but it is certain that there are boys who are trying to seduce her.
Qian Shulan thought about it and decided to have someone keep an eye on her. Sun Daqin was a talkative person and Li Chunhua was too stupid. In the end, she could only ask Zhou Xuemei to pay more attention to Xiaolian.
Zhou Xuemei naturally agreed.
The next day, Wang Danna came back on her bicycle.
Qian Shulan was preparing dinner and the family was eating.
Wang Danna came to the door carrying a basket of canned goods. After coming in, she put the things she was carrying on the big table.
Qian Shulan quickly asked her to sit down, and Xiao Min ran over and moved a stool for her aunt to sit on.
Wang Danna smiled and pinched her little face, "Xiao Min is so good!"
Xiao Min blushed with embarrassment, and then sat back in her seat to eat.
Wang Danna wiped the sweat from her forehead. Seeing her mother fanning her, she took it with some embarrassment, "Mom, I can do it myself!"
Qian Shulan asked with a smile, "Why did you come here today?"
Wang Danna blushed, "That family came to our house yesterday and told us about it. I didn't expect you to dislike it."
Qian Shulan nodded, "The conditions are good, but the thinking is too backward. I don't ask for gender equality, but at least the gap can't be too big. I can't stand it if they mistreat their daughter like this!"
Wang Danna was stunned for a moment. She didn't think there was anything wrong with insisting on having a son, but now after hearing her mother say this, she immediately understood what her mother meant.
Thinking that I could go to junior high school and that my mother had spent a lot of effort to find me a job, my heart felt as if it was filled with cotton and was extremely warm.
"Mom, I understand."
She thought for a moment and asked again, "Mom, are there any other conditions?"
Before, we looked for a partner based on Xiaotao's personality. This girl is loved by her parents and has a strong sense of self-will. Even if she really marries into this family, with the support of her father, she will probably be able to fight to a draw.
But if it were Xiaolian, it would be a complete defeat!
Qian Shulan thought for a moment and expressed her opinion, "Xiao Lian has a soft temper. It would be best for her to find a family with a good temper and not quarrel all the time. Also, observe and see if they are biased towards their daughter. If they don't treat their daughter as a human being, let alone their daughter-in-law."
Wang Danna thought about it and felt that what her mother said made sense. She went over it in her mind and said, "Mom, you know what, there really is a family that is suitable."
Qian Shulan was very interested, "Tell me about it!"
In recent years, Wang Danna has built a very good relationship with the neighbors because she takes care of the children. Otherwise, Qian Shulan would not have asked her to help introduce a date.
Wang Danna thought for a long time, "They are relatives of our neighbor. During the Chinese New Year last year, I saw that family coming to pay New Year's greetings. They were very nice and polite. The young man was also good. When my neighbor saw them off, he asked me to help introduce them to someone."
Qian Shulan thought for a moment and said, "Take Xiaolian with you."
She sighed and told Xiaolian that she might have been instigated by someone.
Wang Danna got anxious when she heard this. She was also an experienced person. When her mother refused to agree to her being with Fang Yonglin, she hated her mother to the core.
She even thought about marrying him even without a dowry. If not for all the things that happened later, which hit her self-confidence, she might have really lost her mind.
Wang Danna was worried that Xiaolian would be like this too. "Mom, didn't you ask Xiaolian?"
Qian Shulan shook her head. "You know the girl's personality. She's very stubborn and tight-lipped. But she never said anything. Either the boy is too unworthy or the two of them are not close enough. I'll just pretend I don't know. I can't just watch her get cheated."
Wang Danna slapped her thigh and made malicious speculations, "It must be because someone heard that our family gave our daughter a large dowry, so someone deliberately had evil ideas."
Qian Shulan was stunned for a moment. Don't say it! This is the most reasonable reason. Otherwise, why didn't the other family come to propose marriage? Xiaolian is not fourteen or fifteen years old, she is seventeen. There are people who have children at this age.
If you don't come to propose marriage, don't you mean you have some evil intentions
Maybe she wanted to destroy Xiaolian's reputation so that she would have to marry him. Her thoughts were too vicious!
But these are all speculations and should not be taken seriously. As for why the man was not caught, it is a busy farming season now and who has the time to spare.
Qian Shulan made a decision immediately, "Take Xiaolian to the county town later. Let her have a look. Even if the match is successful, don't come back. Let her stay at your house and prepare for marriage."
Wang Danna agreed without thinking.
After saying good things, Qian Shulan hurriedly invited her to eat.
But when she glanced at the table, she found that almost all the dishes were gone, and there was only a little bread left. It was not that she didn't want to cook more, but the weather was too hot, and the dishes cooked at noon would go bad by the evening.
Qian Shulan immediately stood up and said, "Wait a moment, I'll go make you a bowl of egg noodles."
Wang Danna was eating a pancake made by her mother. The pancake was very thin and tasted delicious.
Hearing her mother's words, Wang Danna quickly waved her hands to refuse, mumbling, "Mom, no need!" while standing up.
Qian Shulan pushed her down and said, "How can you not eat? You've been riding a bike for several hours, you must be starving." After saying that, she walked out.
Seeing that there was no vegetable in Xiaogu's pancake, Xiaomin immediately took an egg from her bowl and gave it to her with a chopstick, "Aunt, you eat it!"
Wang Danna touched her head with a smile on her face, "Xiao Min is so good!"
After she finished praising him, she coughed lightly and greeted Deng Yunping, who had been sitting beside her and eating quietly, "Deng Zhiqing, are you used to living in the production team?"
Deng Yunping was shocked by what Qian Shulan said just now.
She had never seen such a sensible old lady who treated her son, daughter-in-law and daughter equally, and did not look down on her daughter and granddaughter.
No wonder her son, daughter-in-law, and even daughter are so filial to her.
She really envied Wang Danna for having such a mother.
But this thought only flashed through my mind and was simply impossible.
She sighed and started eating, but she didn't expect Wang Danna to take the initiative to talk to her.
Thinking about how she envied her just now and worried that she would discover her dirty thoughts, her face turned red and she whispered back, "Very good."
Wang Danna nodded, "That's good!"
Xiao Min raised her little hand and said to Wang Danna, "Aunt, Auntie Deng is so nice. She even played with me."
Wang Danna smiled and touched her little face. "Then you have to treat your Aunt Deng well. She doesn't know anyone here, so you should spend more time with her."
Xiao Min nodded seriously, "Aunt, I will."
After saying that, he buried his head in eating.
Wang Danna raised her head and smiled at Deng Yunping, "My mother is a person who can't sit still, and Xiao Min is very naughty. Thank you very much for taking care of her."
Deng Yunping waved her hands. "Of course, of course. Aunt Qian even lets me live here for free."
Although Qian Shulan accepted Deng Yunping's meal fee, she refused to charge her for accommodation. In her words, it was just like adding a separate room to her room, which was no big deal.
The two of them talked politely, but it wasn't as awkward as before.
Qian Shulan came over at this moment, holding a plate of steaming egg noodles with a few slices of braised meat on top.
“Eat it now!”
Wang Danna took it, picked up the noodles and blew on them.
Deng Yunping finished eating, stood up and said to the two of them, "Aunt Qian, Comrade Wang, I'm going to work first."
The two of them nodded quickly.
I watched Deng Yunping put on the straw hat, then took the sickle and walked out of the yard.
Wang Danna praised with admiration, "This girl is young, but she dares to fight!"
Children from big cities are more or less unable to endure hardship, but this girl is not spoiled at all, which is really rare.
Qian Shulan sighed and said nothing.
"But why hasn't this girl married yet?"
"She was married, but her previous husband died because of poor health."
Wang Danna said "oh" and lowered her head to eat noodles again.
After Wang Danna finished her meal, she said goodbye to Qian Shulan and rode her bicycle to the old house.
He said he wanted to take Xiaolian to live in the county town.
Li Chunhua was a little hesitant. It was the time to harvest wheat and Xiaolian was the laborer of the family. It would be a pity for her to leave like this.
Wang Danna noticed her hesitation, pulled her aside and said that she wanted to take Xiaolian to the city for a blind date.
Li Chunhua agreed immediately and hurriedly urged Xiaolian to pack her clothes.
Xiaolian opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but gave up in the end.
When Wang Danna saw this, her eyes flashed. It seemed that her mother was right. There was something going on between this girl and the boy.
But it doesn’t matter. When Xiaolian arrives in the county, she will definitely make her realize what reality and marriage are.
Xiaolian packed her things and sat in the back seat of Wang Danna's car. Soon they left Wangjia Village.
Li Chunhua also locked the door and went to work.
A few days later, the department store's car went to the countryside again.
But the person who came this time was not Xu Wenhou, but someone else.
"Why didn't Section Chief Xu come?"
The middle-aged man's name was Wang Xianjin. He smiled and said, "I'm the deputy section chief of the department store. He's busy with something. It's my turn today."
Qian Shulan frowned slightly. Was it a coincidence or intentional that he didn't come at this moment
She turned her head to look at Chen Xuanxuan who was sweeping chicken manure in the yard, and saw that she was not looking at her at all. She felt very strange.
Would a cheating woman not care about the presence of her adulterer
But Chen Xuanxuan seemed not to have looked at this side from beginning to end. She kept her head down and swept the floor. I have never seen her so honest before.
After the department store's car drove away, Qian Shulan packed up her things and left the chicken farm.
She went to the field that Lao Wang was in charge of and saw the twins playing in the mud from a distance. Zhou Xuemei glanced at them from time to time.
Seeing that the two children were playing there peacefully, he bent down and continued to cut.
Today, because a truck came to transport eggs, it was a bit dangerous for the children to stay at the chicken farm, so they each took care of the children.
Even Xiao Min was brought to the fields by Sun Daqin.
Qian Shulan walked up to Zhou Xuemei and asked in a low voice, "Were they discovered last time?"
Zhou Xuemei was stunned for a moment when she heard her mother-in-law's words. When she finally realized that she was talking about Chen Xuanxuan and Xu Wenhou, she froze.
She seemed to be too excited and made some noise.
Her face was full of apology, and then she scratched her head in embarrassment, "Mom, I think I made a little noise."
Qian Shulan was somewhat speechless. She wanted to criticize, but it seemed inappropriate. After all, Zhou Xuemei didn't know that this matter was very important to her.
Qian Shulan swallowed her words and rubbed her face helplessly. She said, "That's it! What these two people did today is too weird!"
It seems that these two people are on guard.
She sighed silently, what a good opportunity was missed.
But given Chen Xuanxuan's personality, she shouldn't be able to turn over a new leaf, right
The author has something to say: Don’t worry, Chen Xuanxuan’s ending is very tragic... It can be written in about three to five chapters, but there is a process in between.
