There was a huge chaos in the courtyard. It was so good now that He Tiantian didn't even dare to look in that direction.
At this moment, someone suddenly shouted loudly at the entrance of the courtyard: "Have you forgotten all what I said?!"
The voice was old but powerful, and the whole place suddenly fell silent.
Following the sound, I saw Jiang Sanping standing at the entrance of the courtyard.
In the silence, Dong Gouou suddenly shouted: "Uncle Sanping!"
I saw him holding up his pants, approaching in a hurry, with a red face, staring at Jiang Sanping, and shouted: "Uncle Sanping! When you left, you said that I would live to be ninety-nine, but you also said that I was destined to be ninety-nine.
Alone, let me ask you, what’s the point of me living to ninety-nine?!”
Jiang Sanping looked at him and shook his head, "So?"
"So I want to find a wife!" Dong Gougou said with a smile on his face, "I also want someone to warm my bed! I just fell in love with her! I am a widower and she is a widow, so it is just right for us to get together!"
Jiang Sanping shook his head and sighed, "You didn't take anything I said to your heart at all!"
"I don't believe it!" Dong Gou shouted at the top of his voice, "Why should I be a bachelor for half my life? I don't have a warm bed, so what's the use of living ninety-nine?!"
"Alas!" Jiang Sanping sighed heavily, turned around and said, "I won't save people who are not destined to be together. Since you don't believe it, just let it go! Alas! You don't want a good hundred years of life, so why do you want to go to the road of death?"
His voice was getting farther and farther away, but Dong Gou had heard it clearly.
He didn't believe it when he was sober, let alone when he was drunk now.
He made an unconvinced expression, and then tried to pull off his pants, but Jiang Changgong and Dong Qingshui had already walked behind him, and before he could move, they had pushed him to the ground.
"What are you going to do?" Dong Gougou barked.
Dong Qingshui cursed: "What a shame! Leave quickly! If you don't leave, I will have your legs broken!"
The two of them pulled and pulled Dong Gougou away.
Aunt Jiang hurriedly shouted loudly: "Ignore him! Keep eating! Let's eat well and drink well!"
The yard became lively again, and He Tiantian brought Xiuniang, Daya, and Xiaodouzi into his room.
"Tian Tian, I shouldn't have come if I have caused you trouble..." Xiu Niang lowered her head and said with a sad expression.
He Tiantian patted her shoulder, "This has nothing to do with you. I just want to ask you, what are your plans next?"
"What other plans can I have..." Xiuniang looked at Da Ya, then at Xiaodouzi, and sighed, "When we were in Tianshui Village, he had harassed me several times. Fortunately, Uncle Chang Gong and I
We live close by, and he was the one who drove Dong Gou away these few times."
"What do you mean, Uncle Qingshui? Are you still letting Dong Gougou live in the village?" He Tiantian said while inviting Daya Xiaodouzi to eat snacks.
Xiu Niang sighed again: "I am a foreigner after all. You can't drive him out of the village because of me. Besides, if I drive him away because of this, maybe he will still hate me."
"What if he harasses you again?"
Xiu Niang thought for a long time, then looked at her and said sincerely: "I want Daya and Xiaodouzi to study..."
"That's not a problem." He Tiantian said, "They're just here to study. What about you?"
"To be honest, I was thinking that if the two of them were studying in Jingjiu County, I would follow them." After Xiuniang finished speaking, she looked at He Tiantian apologetically and said, "Am I causing too much trouble to you? Yes.
Why don't you just let Xiaodouzi go..."
As she spoke, Daya turned her head and looked at her sadly.
He Tiantian hurriedly said: "We have a girls' school in our academy. Not only do they go to school for free, but they also provide food and accommodation."
"Then let her come too?" Xiu Niang's eyes lit up, "I want her to come to study too, just because I'm afraid it will cause you trouble..."
"It's not troublesome. This is the rule in medical school. That's fine. You can take care of your two children in the city. Is there anything you need my help with?"
"No, no, no!" Xiu Niang said hurriedly, "I don't dare to trouble you anymore, you have already taken enough care of us. What's more, the father of the child treats you..."
"Don't mention him, he is him and you are you." He Tiantian turned to look at Daya and Xiaodouzi and said, "The child is innocent."
After returning to Tianshui Village, Xiuniang packed her things.
There were no valuable belongings at home, and not much could be taken away. After finishing packing, it was getting late.
"Mom, shall we leave tomorrow?" Da Ya looked at her with a pair of dark eyes, looking very excited.
Xiu Niang touched her head, tucked her in the quilt, smiled softly and kindly, "Yes, I will leave tomorrow to send you to study..."
"You can go to school!" Da Ya shouted excitedly.
Xiaodouzi murmured: "Isn't studying very tiring? I don't want to study!"
Daya stretched out her hand and patted his head, "Fool! It's better to study! If you study, you won't have to work in the fields."
"What's wrong with going to the fields? It's so much fun!" Xiaodouzi pouted, "Mom, if you go to school, will you not be able to see Grandpa Chang Gong?"
Xiu Niang was stunned for a moment and then said: "We can still come back when we are on vacation."
"But Grandpa Chang Gong said that he will take me to fish in the river in the summer. Can I take a vacation in the summer?" Xiaodouzi said reluctantly.
"Okay." Xiu Niang touched his head, "Go to sleep, go to bed early."
Both children closed their eyes obediently, but Xiu Niang did not sleep. She took out a pair of insoles and embroidered them stitch by stitch.
This pair of insoles has been embroidered for a long time. They were all embroidered at night when the children were asleep. After the last stitch was embroidered, the two children had already fallen asleep.
Xiu Niang took out a pair of insoles and a pair of shoes and wrapped them up, then wrapped them in a piece of linen cloth and walked out the door quietly.
She lived not far from Jiang Changgong, and she wanted to put this pair of shoes outside the door of his courtyard to express her gratitude to Jiang Changgong for helping him several times.
Unexpectedly, she quietly put her shoes at the door and was about to leave when she heard Jiang Changgong calling him quietly, "Xiu Niang!"
Xiuniang suddenly panicked, turned around and saw Jiang Changgong standing in the courtyard, holding the cloth bag through the fence gate.
"Here, this is a pair of shoes. We are leaving tomorrow. Thank you for taking care of me during this time." Xiuniang said hurriedly.
Jiang Changgong thought for a while and then said: "You want to move to the city?"
"Yes, I have discussed it with Tiantian, and she asked both Daya and Xiaodouzi to study in medical school."
"Okay, this is good. If you study, you will be able to make a difference in the future." Jiang Changgong nodded repeatedly, "It will be much easier to worry about when you go to the city."
"Then you try these shoes. If they don't fit, I will change them." Xiu Niang lowered her head and looked at the toes of the shoes.
Jiang Changgong responded, opened the cloth bag, looked at it, and said, "The size looks right."
"That's good..." Xiu Niang lowered her head, turned around and said, "Then I... will leave first..."
"Xiu Niang." Jiang Changgong called in a low voice.
Xiuniang stopped and turned around, timidly saying: "Uncle Chang Gong, what else can you do?"
