On Saturday afternoon, Tian Shao first went to see Mu Ningzhen. The unit originally arranged a dormitory for her, but Mu Ningzhen refused to take her daughter over to live with her and rented a room next to the unit.
When Tian Shao arrived, he saw Ji Qing changing coal cakes: "Xiao Qing, where is your mother, hasn't she gotten off work yet?"
The house Mu Ningzhen rented was relatively large, with more than 20 square meters. She divided it into two rooms so that she could have private space. As for cooking, she built a low shed in the yard.
When Xiaoqing saw it was Tian Shao, she immediately showed a big smile: "Aunt Tian, you are here, please sit down in the room."
After Tian Shao entered the house, he put the bag he was carrying on the small square table: "I brought the roast duck you like to eat. Just cook the rice and fry the vegetables."
This child is sensible and can already cook for himself. It is also because the child is independent that Mu Ningzhen saves a lot of things.
Xiaoqing's eyebrows suddenly curved, and after thanking her, she said: "Aunt Tian, my mother hasn't come back yet, so she is probably delayed by something. If you are in a hurry, I will call her."
Tian Shao looked at her and said: "It's nothing urgent, I'll just wait a moment. Xiaoqing, two children were abducted a few days ago. You should also be careful! Come back with your classmates after school, and don't stop when you get home.
go out."
She wasn't trying to scare Xiao Qing, but a child was really missing. She didn't know whether it was abduction or an accident. Fortunately, there were many children in the same school as Xiao Qing in this alley, so they could always find companions when going to and from school.
Xiaoqing was frightened and hurriedly waved her hands and said: "Aunt Tian, I won't run around in the future and I will wait for my mother at home."
Tian Shao touched her head and said: "Don't be afraid. As long as you don't run around, you will be fine when you go home after school. By the way, don't believe what strangers say, even if they are talking about your mother's affairs.
Let the other person go. Your mother is an adult and will ask me or my colleagues for help if something happens, and she will never ask you to go."
"good."
At this time, Mu Ningzhen came back and gave Tian Shao a warm hug when she saw him: "What kind of wind brought you, a busy man, here today?"
Tian Shao handed her the wedding invitation and said, "I hope you can come to the wedding banquet on the tenth day of the lunar month."
Mu Ningzhen had known about this for a long time. After receiving the wedding invitation, she said: "Don't worry, I'll go even if I ask for leave."
In fact, Tian Shao must be selected on Sunday, but Tian Dalin and Li Guihua found someone to calculate this date. Fortunately, it is Saturday, so it is relatively convenient to ask for leave.
After the two sat down, Mu Ningzhen and Ji Qing said, "Go to Fangzi's house and do your homework with her. I'll call you when the food is ready."
When Ji Qing heard this, she happily took her schoolbag and went out.
Tian Shao looked at her cheerful look and said with a smile: "This child has adapted quite well here."
Mu Ningzhen hummed and said: "The Fangzi I just mentioned is a classmate with her. After I rented a house here, I found out that Fangzi was about to enter the second grade, so I tried to find a way to get closer to her mother.
The children soon got to play together. Na Fangzi’s cheerful brother is also a senior student. With her by her side, Xiaoqing quickly adapted to school life.”
As soon as her work was completed, she transferred Ji Qing's household registration. Worried that Ji Qing would not be able to keep up with school, she specially tutored him for more than a month during the summer vacation.
Tian Shao feels that she is very dedicated now: "With you planning for her like this, this child is very happy."
In fact, Mu Ningzhen has always felt guilty. After all, she really didn't want Ji Qing at the beginning: "I originally wanted to change Ji Qing's surname, but the man didn't agree. Fortunately, he didn't agree. If Xiaoqing had taken my last name, after remarrying,
I might not be able to give birth."
"Is there a suitable candidate?"
Mu Ningzhen nodded and said: "A colleague introduced me to him. He is a high school teacher. He looks gentle. He is also divorced and doesn't mind if I bring up a child."
"Why did you divorce?"
Mu Ningzhen said: "His ex-wife was found to be infertile and divorced. I have met him twice, and he meets my requirements in all aspects. I am going to choose a date for Xiaoqing to meet him."
Tian Shao thought for a moment and said: "You'd better not be so hasty. Observe this person first, and then get to know his family. If you don't encounter anything, you won't know whether the other person is a human or a ghost."
If Mu Ningzhen were herself, Tian Shao would not talk so much. After all, she was not someone who would swallow her anger and let herself be wronged. But raising this child, if she did not marry well, would cast a shadow on the child for the rest of his life.
Mu Ningzhen knew what she was thinking and nodded: "Okay, then I'll keep an eye on it. By the way, Sister Yiqiu is pregnant and can't attend your wedding banquet."
"Why can't I attend the wedding banquet when I'm pregnant?"
"This is the custom there."
"My family and the Tan family don't have such a custom. I will invite her tomorrow."
Mu Ningzhen shook her head and said: "You don't know her temperament. She is the most accepting of death. She will definitely not go if she thinks it is unlucky. Speaking of which, you have been married for two months. Is there any movement in your stomach?"
You can't escape this step after getting married. Tian Shao said with a smile: "There are all kinds of things with children. I want to live a comfortable life with Tan Yue for two years, so I don't want children for the time being."
Mu Ningzhen's eyes widened and she said, "We don't want children for the time being? Tan Yue is already thirty, can he agree?"
"He agreed!"
Mu Ningzhen had nothing to say, so she took her hand and said, "Xiao Shao, you have such a discerning eye that you have found such a good man."
Tan Yue looks cold, but he is very obedient and doting on Tian Shao. Not only her, but also Bao Yiqiu is sometimes envious. Really, it's great.
Tian Shao smiled and said: "He is also lucky to have such a good wife like me."
I think Tan Yue used to be a pimple, and his life was like soaking in yellow lotus. But since he fell in love with her, he not only became more energetic, but also had more and more smiles on his face. These are all due to her.
.
"Yes, yes, yes, you are the best."
The next day, Tian Shao went to invite Bao Yiqiu. As Mu Ningzhen said, she was not going to attend the wedding banquet: "I'm going to get into trouble because I'm pregnant, so just let Qi Lei go."
Tian Shao didn't believe this, but Bao Yiqiu said that the child in her belly would also be affected, so she gave up persuading her. If there was something wrong with the child, she couldn't bear the responsibility.
The two chatted about home affairs, and Tian Shao asked: "Have you not told the squad leader about the house?"
In mid-August, Bao Yiqiu and Qi Lei held a wedding. It was said to be a wedding, but it was actually just two tables. Then in November, she used all her savings to buy a small courtyard. The location was a bit remote but the area was more than 60 square meters.
She did this behind Qi Lei's back,
Bao Yiqiu said: "He knew it in December. Fortunately, I used all the money to buy a house, otherwise my mother-in-law would have taken it away to marry my brother-in-law."
Tian Shao asked in surprise: "Is your mother-in-law really asking you for money?"
Bao Yiqiu sneered and said: "In order to save money, I didn't hold any wedding banquets at my parents' house. She asked for five hundred. Five hundred. I don't know how she could afford it. I am in charge of all the money at home now.
, it’s no big deal that we have to pay for the hospitalization, so don’t even think about using our money to support your younger son.”
Tian Shao was very pleased to see that she knew how to protect her own interests.
