Wang Qing chuckled: "She is the youngest and little sister in the family, so she is less independent. When she becomes a mother and takes on the responsibility of the whole family, she will naturally become more mature. After I became a mother myself, I realized that women can only
Mom, when you become someone’s daughter-in-law, it’s time for the real test.”
Liu Ying looked outside and whispered: "Fortunately, that girl is lucky. Her son-in-law has always been very attentive to her. Her father-in-law and mother-in-law treat her like their own daughter. If she makes any mistakes, they pretend not to see anything."
Wang Qing met Xue Zhilan and his wife and said warmly: "They are indeed kind and generous people."
At this time, Cheng Tianyuan brought a bowl of soup from the kitchen and handed it to Liu Ying.
"Mom, it's time to drink. I drank a little ginger today. Uncle San said it can warm the stomach."
Liu Ying responded well, took it and drank it in one mouthful.
Cheng Tianyuan explained to Wang Qing: "After my mother had brain surgery, her body suffered a lot and her blood pressure was high. Fortunately, the third uncle of the family was a medical expert. He often prescribed some medicine and soup for my mother. My mother recovered so well in the later period.
He deserves a lot of credit."
Wang Qing was filled with envy and whispered: "It would be great to have such relatives."
Liu Ying quickly explained: "He is Lingling's third uncle. By the way, Lingling's parents went back to their old house with him today. They said there was a leak in a small house there and they wanted to find a master to repair it. They went to help.
Some sanitation work. There were a lot of heavy rains in the summer, and there was thunder last time. I guess the old house was struck by lightning."
Cheng Tianyuan frowned and whispered: "Mom, don't talk nonsense. The wires in that area were struck by lightning, causing a short circuit. The wires in that house were too old and burned a small hole."
Liu Ying laughed apologetically: "I listened to half of it, but I didn't even understand it."
At this time, Ahu came over.
"Godmother, my sister-in-law and I have discussed going out to eat hot pot. You don't want to cook for a while. Ah Qing, I think the new Nokia mobile phone my sister-in-law bought seems to be very good."
Wang Qing frowned slightly and said angrily: "You want to change your mobile phone again? I bought a Motorola at the end of last year for several thousand yuan, and I have just used it for more than half a year? It costs a thousand yuan a month, and making phone calls is too expensive. One
It costs more than a thousand a month - what a waste! Be careful of being scolded for your extravagant behavior!"
Ahu shrank his neck and whispered: "Sister-in-law said that it is convenient to do business if communication is good."
"Are you inconvenient now?" Wang Qing asked, "Who called you and you didn't answer it? Huh?"
Seeing Wang Qing's firm tone, Ah Hu immediately behaved and did not dare to mention it again. He was very envious of Xue Ling.
"Sister-in-law, it's better for you, you can spend it however you want. My wife is in charge of the money I earn, and I don't have the right to make my own decisions."
Xue Ling suppressed a smile and said: "Then I'm much better than you. I make my own money and spend it myself, and the money my husband earns is also mine."
"Haha!" Ahu laughed mockingly and said: "You lied to me! As far as I know, the money from clothing wholesale, the rent collected by Amin for you, and the shares given to you by Sister-in-law Jinhua for raising pigs are all
Ayuan collected it for you. He collected all your money for you, can he give you the money he earned?"
Xue Ling shrugged and explained: "I entrusted him to take care of mine. The money he earned will be kept by himself for the time being. When I need it one day, I will give the order and he will obediently hand it over immediately."
At this point, she turned around and asked Cheng Tianyuan: "Is that right?"
Cheng Tianyuan smiled and nodded.
Ahu rolled his eyes and scolded with a smile: "You are already in your forties, and now you are here to show your affection! Ayuan, of course, you are almost fifteen years old!"
Everyone laughed.
That evening, the two families went out to eat hot pot.
Wang Qing looked into the kitchen next door and saw Zhu Achun frying spring rolls. He couldn't help but lower his voice: "It turns out there is someone living next door. It's been so quiet next door for the past two days. I thought no one was staying!"
Xue Ling explained: "Uncle Zheng is a good friend of my father and my business partner. He is considered one of my own, so I sold this house to him. This 18th floor is occupied by my own family and no other outsiders."
Wang Qing nodded: "That's great! No one else comes in or out, so it's safer and more secure."
"Yes." Xue Ling seemed to remember something and said: "Uncle Zheng originally had a villa over there in Minghu Lake, but the outer shell was built and not decorated. At the end of last year, he sold the old factory and used the machines as scrap.
He sold the factory and rented it to others, and now only the factory where I cooperated with him is left."
Ahu curiously asked: "The sweater business is still there. When I placed an order for him, he said that the old factory had stopped working and it was receiving fewer orders now. I couldn't believe it at first! What should I do to sell it?
?As long as you can knit wool, isn't it enough? You can make money with any amount."
Xue Ling sighed and explained: "You only know one but not the other. The machine is indeed too old and outdated, so just sell it. But Uncle Zheng really didn't have the heart to manage two factories, so he sold the old machine and only left the new factory.
.In the past year, he and Sister Achun often went out to find his youngest son Tietou, without any intention of making money."
Ahu couldn't help but ask: "Is this the boy in the photo that Ayuan faxed to me? He hasn't been found yet?"
"No." Xue Ling whispered: "It's been almost a year. We have been looking for it for a long time, and we are still asking customers to pay attention. Unfortunately, there is no good news. Someone called a while ago, and unexpectedly it was a liar, an old couple.
I almost fell for it.”
During this year, whenever there were customers from out of town, no matter where they were, she would give them a photo and ask them to help them find them.
Missing persons notices were posted on almost every TV station, as well as in various newspapers and magazines.
Uncle Zheng spent a lot of money on these things, but he never felt bad and just wanted to find Tietou as soon as possible.
There were all kinds of missing persons notices and various advertisements, and Tietou must have seen them. But the boy never heard back.
Xue Ling and Cheng Tianyuan secretly guessed that the boy might not be in the country. Otherwise, after seeing such touching words about missing people and thinking about how his biological mother, whose family was worried about him, wouldn't come back.
Of course, they really didn't want to believe what the police said about another tragic accident, and they really couldn't bear it psychologically.
Zhu Achun has been depressed for more than half a year and has still not recovered. Fortunately, Uncle Zheng worked hand in hand with her to advance and retreat. The two took care of each other, comforted each other, and insisted on searching day by day, year after year.
Zhu Achun's complexion has improved a bit in the past few months. The two of them are not as anxious as before, and their mentality is calmer. They have not given up looking for someone, but they are not as anxious as before. They are afraid of accidentally getting sick, and they are also afraid of being too impatient and falling into the trap of the bad guys.
After all, there are all kinds of people in this world, and some people seize on the anxiety of missing their loved ones to cheat and make money, earning ruthless money from trampling on people's blood and tears.
After Wang Qing listened to Xue Ling's detailed explanation in the car, the usually sentimental writer couldn't help but burst into tears.
"It's really not easy for this mother. However, if this child has a deep relationship with his mother, why hasn't he come back for so long? How can he have no news at all for a year? He doesn't know how much his mother misses him. How can he not come back for so long?
Are you worried about him?"
Xue Ling looked at the passing scene outside the window and whispered: "Maybe he has something unspeakable. I hope so."
Xiaoxin, who was sitting between the two of them, said crisply: "Brother Tietou will come back! That's what Aunt Achun said."
After hearing this, Xue Ling rubbed her little daughter's smooth black hair and couldn't help but shed tears for a moment.
As a mother, Sister Achun endured the worries and discomforts that all mothers cannot bear. If she hadn't had hope, she would have collapsed long ago.
