Qian Shulan knew that this was only a temporary solution. She only tried to appease Wang Shouyi temporarily.
Li Chunhua had three children, so she should be able to have another child. But Wang Shouyi might not be able to wait that long.
Qian Shulan planned to go to Liuguan County to inquire at the adoption agency whether there were any suitable baby boys.
Qian Shulan originally wanted Wang Shouren to take her to the county town, but later she heard that Wang Shouquan was going to the county town for a meeting, so Qian Shulan took his car and did not ask Wang Shouren to take her there.
Before leaving, Qian Shulan distributed enough food to them, enough to fill them up. The right to distribute food was given to Wang Shouren.
This was also her special care for the eldest brother. After all, the eldest brother was the one who listened to her the most in the family. Although, he also had some small thoughts, but who among these people didn't have small thoughts
Even Li Chunhua, who she thought was honest and cowardly at the beginning, was a person who looked down on others.
She finally understood that there was no normal person in this family. They all had their own little tricks. It really lived up to the 1.2.3.4.5 on the forehead.
When they arrived at the county town, Qian Shulan wanted to invite Wang Shouquan over for dinner, but he was in a hurry to attend a meeting, so he declined her invitation and left after seeing her off.
Qian Shulan went to the Water Conservancy Bureau to find Wang Shouzhi.
I didn't expect him to go to the countryside. I remembered that Wang Shouzhi said that Xiaodie was given to a colleague at the Water Conservancy Bureau to take care of. He was paid 1.5 yuan per time.
She just wanted to go see Xiaodie first.
The Water Conservancy Bureau’s family quarters are right next to the Water Conservancy Bureau.
When she asked the first family where Wang Shouzhi's child was, the person hurriedly pointed her in the direction, but then looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
Qian Shulan suddenly had a very bad feeling.
She thanked the lady, frowned slightly, and walked in the direction she had pointed.
However, before she could go in, she heard a stern female voice, "Hurry up and wash. You can't eat if you don't. Your father has gone to the countryside and no one will take care of you. You still have to do these things after he gets married. You have to be diligent, otherwise you won't have anything to eat."
Qian Shulan was so angry that her head was buzzing and she rushed in with one brisk step.
Sure enough, I saw Xiaodie using a gourd ladle to scoop water into a large wooden barrel. There were clothes for both adults and children, filling up the barrel.
Qian Shulan was so angry that she picked up Xiaodie and whispered in her ear, "Xiaodie, grandma is here."
When Xiaodie saw her grandmother, she immediately hugged her neck tightly, buried her little head in her arms, and tears fell from her eyes.
Qian Shulan felt very distressed.
The woman who had been watching Xiaodie work started yelling, "Who are you?"
Qian Shulan did not answer her. She put Xiaodie down and whispered in her ear, "Xiaodie, take a good look at how grandma fights the villain."
Xiaodie's eyes lit up and she stood there obediently.
Qian Shulan immediately kicked the large wooden barrel in the yard to the ground.
Then, he pointed at the woman and started to curse, "You shameless bitch. My son gave you money to take care of the child, but you treated my granddaughter like a maid. You conscienceless bitch, I must teach you a lesson today!"
As he said that, he rolled up his sleeves, rushed over and slapped her in the face.
The woman was beaten so hard that she screamed and howled like a pig being slaughtered.
When the people in the yard heard her scream, they all ran out to watch the fun.
"Why did they start fighting?"
When the woman saw someone coming, she wiped her tears in a pitiful manner and said, "Come and take a look. I was kind enough to look after her child, but she hit me. How could there be such an unreasonable person?"
Someone who didn't know the truth immediately spoke up, "That's right, she was helping you look after your child, why did you hit her?"
Qian Shulan pulled her hair and sneered at the man, "If your child is also a maid for others and you can still smile, then come and talk to me about reason, otherwise just shut your stinky mouth."
The woman was choked by her and looked unhappy. Just as she was about to talk back, she was pulled back by the person next to her.
Others had seen Zheng Lili bullying the child and felt sorry for her. They also tried to persuade her privately, but Zheng Lili didn't listen.
Nowadays, it is normal to be slapped a few times if seen by someone’s grandmother.
Seeing that no one dared to step forward to trouble her, Qian Shulan immediately pushed Zheng Lili to the ground and said, "Take out the money my son gave me! I give you money and you dare to abuse me. You are not a human being!" As she said that, she kicked her on the calf.
The force was so great that Zheng Lili curled up in pain, holding her calf and unable to get up.
Seeing that she was lying on the ground and refusing to get up, Qian Shulan immediately said, "Okay, okay, you don't want to give it to me, right?" She looked around the yard and didn't find anything. Suddenly, she was tripped by something and then she remembered the clothes on the ground.
She picked up a piece of clothing that looked relatively neat and pretended to tear it, "Give me back my money quickly, or I'll tear all your clothes apart."
Seeing her favorite bragi being held in her hand, Zheng Lili screamed and threatened her viciously, "If you dare to tear it, I will fight you to the death."
She had just finished screaming and watched Qian Shulan tear a hole in her clothes. She tapped her with her chin and threatened, "If you don't take it, I'll tear it again."
Seeing how ruthless the old lady was, the onlookers immediately tried to mediate the fight, "Lili, I think you should return the money to her."
"Yes, Lili, this old lady is not a good person, you should not provoke her again."
"Return it quickly. A piece of braid costs more than ten dollars. It would be a shame to ruin it."
. . .
In the end, Zheng Lili had no choice but to return the money.
After taking the 1.5 yuan, Qian Shulan said, "Give the food back as well."
Wang Shouzhi will definitely take Xiaodie’s rations, and it will be more, not less.
Zheng Lili felt a little aggrieved, "She has been staying at my place for three days."
Qian Shulan had a cold face and was a little unhappy. "I'll return it intact. You exploited her for three days and I haven't settled the score with you yet. Be careful, I'll go to the Water Conservancy Bureau and find the leaders to report you for bullying our poor and lower-middle peasants' children. You're just following the capitalist hedonism style."
When the people around heard that the old lady dared to put on such a big hat, they were so scared that they quickly pulled Zheng Lili's sleeve.
Helpless, Zheng Lili could only go back to the house obediently.
After a while, he came out carrying ten kilograms of food.
Qian Shulan asked Xiaodie to take out her things.
Xiaodie glanced at Zheng Lili, and seeing that she had no objection, she immediately trotted back to the house, holding her schoolbag and walked in front of Qian Shulan. She raised her little face and said pitifully, "Grandma, the silver lock my grandpa gave me was also snatched away by her."
Qian Shulan glared at Zheng Lili, looking a little guilty, and hurried back to the house.
When she came out again, she held the small silver lock in both hands and handed it over to Xiaodie. Qian Shulan handed it to Xiaodie and asked with a smile, "Xiaodie, do you have anything else with her?"
Xiaodie shook her head and whispered, "No more."
Then, he put his small silver lock back into his schoolbag and closed it again.
Qian Shulan didn't have the key to the single dormitory of the Water Conservancy Bureau, so she had to take Xiaodie to Jiang Yuying's house.
Jiang Yuying was very happy to see Qian Shulan coming into the city again.
Jiang Yuying touched Xiaodie's little face and said, "Xiaodie, do you miss Aunt Jiang?"
Children are forgetful. After not seeing her for such a long time, Xiaodie's impression of Jiang Yuying has become very vague.
She hid behind Qian Shulan shyly.
Qian Shulan told Jiang Yuying about Xiaodie's abuse, and she was equally indignant after hearing it.
Qian Shulan thought for a long time but couldn't come up with any good idea.
"Why not let Comrade Wang get married earlier so that there will be someone to take care of the child."
Qian Shulan also had the same idea. If someone else were to change, such a thing might happen again. It would be better to marry a new wife.
However, she was worried that her stepmother might not love the previously born child and might even feel uncomfortable with him.
Qian Shulan was in a dilemma.
Wang Shouzhi refused to let Xiaodie go back to the countryside, and she didn't want to force him.
It seems that she still wants to think of other ways.
Seeing that Aunt Qian was always frowning, Jiang Yuying said something happy, "Aunt Qian, my boyfriend is going to take me back to meet his family. Why don't you accompany me to the department store to choose some new clothes?"
Qian Shulan was stunned for a moment, but after she came to her senses, she was happy for Jiang Yuying.
After putting Xiaodie's things down, the two of them took Xiaodie to the department store.
Jiang Yuying had a ticket for cookies, so she bought a box of cookies for Xiaodie.
Xiaodie held the biscuit box in her hand, opened the package and ate it with relish.
Qian Shulan accompanied Jiang Yuying to the second floor to choose fabrics.
"I think pink braids look better. You can try it."
Jiang Yuying was a little moved. She said a little embarrassedly, "Would it be a bit pretentious to wear pink at my age?"
"You are still young, and you look good in pink." Twenty-three years old is the age of a flower. Qian Shulan doesn't understand why Jiang Yuying feels old.
Jiang Yuying was very excited. Just as she was about to ask the salesperson to take it, she suddenly heard someone pointing at a skirt and saying, "Please give me that braid. Thank you!"
When they turned around, they saw a young girl wearing a red plaid blouse. The girl was not very young, about sixteen or seventeen years old. She was very pretty and had fair skin. It was obvious that she came from a cadre family.
Next to her stood an old lady who was dressed very elegantly. She was about fifty years old and had an indescribable charm. When she saw the clothes she chose, she praised her and said, "You are young, pink is just right for you."
Qian Shulan felt a little regretful at first, but after all, the other party wanted it first, so she couldn't say anything.
However, she soon discovered that Jiang Yuying's complexion looked a little abnormal, her body was stiff, and she didn't come back to her senses for a long time.
Qian Shulan pointed to another yellow blouse and said, "This one is also good." The light yellow color suits Jiang Yuying very well. She has fair skin and she will look great in it.
Without waiting for Jiang Yuying to respond, Qian Shulan said directly to the salesperson, "Salesperson, could you please bring me the yellow one?"
Jiang Yuying came back to her senses after hearing Qian Shulan's words, but her eyes kept glancing to the side.
The girl pointed again and said, "Please bring the remaining two bragi as well."
Qian Shulan frowned and said to the salesperson, "Can you please bring me the yellow one?"
The salesperson looked at this and that, and finally gave the yellow one to Qian Shulan, and gave the remaining blue one to the young girl.
The young girl was a little unhappy, but she recovered quickly and said to the old lady next to her with a smile, "Aunt Bai, both of these pieces are beautiful. I'll buy them both. I'll give one to Sister Zhengying when the time comes."
The old lady smiled and pointed at the pink one, "Xuanxuan, don't spend money recklessly. Even if you have money, you can't waste it like this."
The young girl took the old lady's arm and said coquettishly, "No way, I only wanted to give it to Sister Zhengying because she was so good to me. Aunt Bai, how did you teach Sister Zhengying? She knows a lot. These past few days, I was like a bumpkin from the countryside, asking questions about everything. But Sister Zhengying never found me annoying. She was very nice to me."
Being praised by her like this, the old lady smiled even more deeply, and said modestly, "No way, your sister Zhengying is not as sensible as you, you are so considerate, she only makes me angry."
The young girl pointed to the pink braid and said to the old lady, "This pink one looks better. Give it to Sister Zhengying. Aunt Bai, what do you think?"
The old lady patted the back of her hand and said, "You are talking nonsense. How can she, a married woman, wear such a bright color? I think this pink one looks good on you. Wear it for Xiao Si later. Women dress up to please themselves!"
The young girl blushed at the old lady's teasing and pouted in anger, "Aunt Bai, you are so mean, I will ignore you!"
As she spoke, the young girl deliberately turned her head away, but the old lady patted the back of her hand lovingly.
The young girl couldn't come back to her senses again.
Jiang Yuying didn't come back to her senses until the two of them left in a cheerful manner, but she looked a little uneasy.
Qian Shulan vaguely guessed that the two people were not simple. It was just that Jiang Yuying's loss of composure must have something to do with her.
Jiang Yuying's only relatives were her aunt's family, and Qian Shulan had seen that man before. Therefore, the two people just now must be from Guo Zhengliang's side.
Could she be Guo Zhengliang’s biological mother
The old lady is very likely. The girl is dressed like a noble, and she bought two pieces of braid at a time. She gave them away as a gift.
Seeing that the relationship between these two people seems very close, it is estimated that Jiang Yuying will have a tough battle to fight tomorrow.
Qian Shulan didn't know how to comfort Yuying. Marriage is always a matter between two families. It's not like "you like me, and I like you" can solve all problems. At least, if the gap between the family backgrounds is too big, there will be a lot of trouble.
Jiang Yuying was good in every way, except that she was an orphan and could not give Guo Zhengliang much help. Therefore, the obstacle that tested their relationship blocked their path to happiness. Qian Shulan could only comfort her and cheer her up.
Jiang Yuying's smile was forced.
In the evening, Qian Shulan saw that she had a lot of gold coins in her mall, so she thought about buying some cotton from No. 153.
Why not cloth? Because the last time I bought clothes, Qian Shulan found that their clothes were made of linen. The workmanship was very good.
But now almost no one wears this kind of cloth, and Qian Shulan didn't want others to notice anything unusual.
Qian Shulan thought that she would have no problem buying cotton, but she didn't know that No. 153 didn't even know there was such a thing as cotton.
Qian Shulan thought that the word "cotton" was not used at No. 153, so she described in detail the growth cycle of cotton and the shape of its branches and leaves.
No. 153 was very sure that she didn't have this thing. Qian Shulan asked around in the mall and found that they didn't know about cotton either.
Qian Shulan asked No. 153 to help her plant the crops and she could provide the seeds. No. 153 gladly agreed.
Qian Shulan thought about finding a yellow cattle to help her collect cotton seeds tomorrow.
It is not easy to find cotton seeds in the north. Because of the climate, cotton is basically not grown in the north because the yield is too low. Unless there is a special need at home, people will plant a little in their private plots. This is why she did not look for cotton seeds in the team.
