"I will accept the five hundred yuan, and you will give the red envelope to the baby yourself. Your only daughter has a baby, and the baby is now your only grandchild. You can't not show up, right?" Grandma Ruan opened the red envelope and said,

Just accepted five hundred yuan.

Zhou Jingfang watched with her own eyes as 500 yuan, a large wad of banknotes, was given away, and her heart bleeds with distress. It was a total of 500 yuan. It would take her a year to save this much money.

However, the man of the family sent him out without blinking an eye, and as a stepmother, he could not express his opinion.

Ruan Xiuhua touched his nose sarcastically. His old mother was right. He should show up as a grandpa. He prepared red envelopes in advance just because he was afraid of being delayed by something he couldn't get away from.

Zhou Jingfang took the red envelope back again. Zhou Jingfang also knew that Yu Qing was indispensable for giving birth to a child, but she didn't know why? Maybe it was out of sight, but she felt inexplicably relieved when he saw that he didn't give out the red envelope.

The child Ruan Nan, who had been sitting quietly watching TV, now spoke, "Grandma, can I go with you to see my sister give birth to a baby tomorrow?"

Everyone was slightly stunned, no one expected him to speak.

Zhou Jingfang frowned and raised her voice slightly: "Nannan, there is nothing interesting in Yicheng. It's not like you haven't been there before. Don't make trouble. Your grandma has something to do. How can she be so busy with you?"

Ruan Xiuhua also didn't approve of Ruan Nan following Grandma Ruan there. Grandma Ruan was going to take care of Qingqing during her confinement period, and Ruan Nan would have to take up Grandma Ruan's energy by following her. Of course he didn't approve.

"Ruan Nan, grandma has to take care of my sister and nephew this time. She doesn't have the extra energy to take care of you. When my sister gives birth, dad will take you with her."

Grandma Ruan was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke: "Well, your dad is right, if you go with me, grandma won't be able to take care of you."

When Qingqing gave birth, there was a mother and a baby at home, and there was no way she, an old woman, could take care of a five- or six-year-old child.

Although Zhou Jingfang did not agree with her son to go, her unwillingness to let her son go was two different things from others not letting her son go.

Seeing the family in front of me preventing Ruan Nan from following, I felt extremely unhappy.

She doesn't know what's going on with her recently. In her heart, she inexplicably wants to get out of touch with her stepdaughter. She always wants to find out who is more important between her and her in Ruan Xiuhua's mind!

Ruan Nan lowered his head in despair: "Okay." It's okay to go with dad next time.

The sky changed overnight, the clouds in the sky were very low, and the weather was gloomy. It seemed like it was going to rain, but it wouldn't rain for a while.

When Yu Qing got up, Li Xiaoju was the only one left at home, chopping vegetable leaves and mixing some rice bran to feed the chickens in the yard.

"Auntie, did Mi Xin go to the store?"

Li Xiaoju threw down the chicken bowl, clapped her hands and said with a smile: "Girl Qing, you're awake, are you hungry? I'll go to the kitchen to serve you breakfast. Girl Xin has already gone to the store after breakfast.

Just leave her alone."

"Thank you, aunt."

Yu Qing walked around the yard with her heavy body. The radish and cabbage she planted are growing very well. The cabbage should be ready for transplanting in a few days.

Just transplanted from the plastic film shed, these chickens cannot be kept free-range in the yard. They have to be raised in pens, otherwise, all the leaves of the newly planted vegetables will be pecked by them.

"Girl Qing, come in and have breakfast. Leave the hens alone and let them eat by themselves." Li Xiaoju's voice came from the house.

"Hey, here we come."

Li Xiaoju put breakfast on the table, a portion of eight-treasure porridge, two steamed buns, and two eggs.

She pointed at the buns and said, "Comrade Lu sent these meat buns this morning. He said he was on his way to the store and took Xin Yatou with him."

"He went to the store to open the door and then came home?" Yu Qing was quite surprised. This kid has grown up now and is more patient with others.

"Well, this guy is really a nice guy. Ichimori is on a business trip, and he does his best to do whatever he is asked to do. He is a nice guy."

"hehe."

Yu Qing couldn't help laughing. She didn't know what her aunt said and thought she was looking at her son-in-law.

While the two were talking, the roar of motorcycles was heard outside the courtyard gate, and the fire was extinguished at the courtyard gate.

Li Xiaoju didn't need anyone to remind her. She wiped her hands, stood up, and walked out the door cheerfully: "Comrade Lu should be here again. I don't know what's wrong with him coming here?"

Yu Qing looked at the figure coming out of the door and clicked her tongue. This was the mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law. The more she looked at her, the more pleasing she became.

As soon as this idea came out, Yu Qing shocked herself. How could she have such an idea? This idea was a bit animalistic. Mi Xin was only a sixteen-year-old girl and a junior high school student who had just entered the society.

"Sister-in-law, it's time to have breakfast."

Lu Jinzhong strode in from the door.

"Have you eaten? How about eating some together?" Yu Qing guessed that he had already eaten, so she invited him politely.

Sure enough, Lu Jinzhong waved his hand, "I ate early, sister-in-law, I came here to tell you something."

While eating breakfast, Yu Qing asked casually: "What's going on?"

Lu Jinzhong had just come back a few days ago, and he still hadn't sorted out a lot of things, so he had no time to chat.

He had no time and didn't want to beat around the bush, so he told her directly: "Erbang was robbed last night and was injured. He is now living in the hospital."

Yu Qing was startled when she heard this. She suddenly raised her head and asked, "What's going on? Please explain it clearly!"

"I don't know the specifics. I just heard a few words from the employees in your store. It seems that Erbang was robbed last night and was injured and hospitalized. Wu Li from your Sunny Shoe Store asked for leave to go to the hospital to take care of you.

He got it."

He heard all this news from the store. Erbang was his sister-in-law's partner. He was robbed. Lu Jinzhong felt it was necessary to let Yu Qing know.

"Damn, how did this happen?" Yu Qing was so angry that the delicious breakfast became boring in front of her, this damn robber!

"It's the end of the year now, and it's cold. There are a lot of second-rates, gangsters, and petty thieves in the city. They have no money, and the New Year is coming soon. They take risks in order to survive."

Speaking of which, Brother Sen was not at home and the yard was a bit remote. Lu Jinzhong had to remind: "Sister-in-law, please pay attention during this period. No matter who is at home or not, the door to the yard should be closed tightly. If someone knocks on the door, be sure to

Make sure who is coming, and don’t open the door if it’s a stranger, especially at night.”

Li Xiaoju, who had been sitting nearby and listening, was shocked. Someone dared to rob in this clear day. Why is the city so chaotic?

"Comrade Lu, don't worry. I've locked and bolted the courtyard door when everything is fine. It's just that Girl Xin has to follow you to and from get off work during this period, so I'll have to trouble you. Otherwise, the city is so chaotic, I I’m really worried.”

Li Xiaoju was not worried about having her at home, but she was worried that her daughter would be in danger if she came back alone from get off work.
