life struggle

Xiaomei's mother-in-law raised her eyes and saw Bai Lingyan was also staring at her with a sullen face. She was about to open her mouth to argue, but she swallowed the words that came to her mouth, looked at Bai Lingyan in embarrassment and said, "Forget it, I didn't say it, it's me I didn’t say anything.” Then he walked away resentfully.

Bai Lingyan thought to herself that even if the two of them had something in the past, now that Wang Suzhen is married, this old woman is really making fun of herself by saying such useless things regardless of time and occasion.

Chen Jie and Luo Wen are now fully focused on their youngest daughter, Shao Yingying. During the Spring Festival, they specially called the former factory leader and a few close colleagues to their home to entertain them.According to Luo Wen's situation and Shao Yingying's education background, there was basically no suspense in entering the factory hospital. The factory manager and the hospital director agreed on the spot, which made Chen Jie very happy.

Chen Jie said to Luo Wen very happily, "Lao Luo, we will not plant the few acres of broken mountain land over there in the future. Yingzi's job has been settled, and I will always be by your and Yingzi's side. The family is happy Living life, I didn't even dare to think about it before, this hard life is finally coming to an end."

Luo Wen smiled and said, "Yeah, seeing Yingzi is like meeting Xiaoxiao. If she can come here, my heart will never be lonely again."

Chen Jie said leisurely, "That's right, so we don't have to worry about anything in our later years."

Luo Wen said, "Have you prepared everything for Xiaojun's parents?"

Chen Jie said, "Don't worry, everything is ready, let's go early tomorrow, don't miss the time, it's not good to let people wait for us."

Luo Wen said worriedly, "Xiaojun hasn't seen us for a long time, and every time she asks Yingzi, she is always vague and evasive. They will be fine!"

Chen Jie said confidently, "I have asked Yingzi many times, and they are both very good all the time, so nothing will happen. Although Xiaojun's family conditions are not very good, there are many relatives and people in his family, so I don't have to worry about Yingzi's future. Take care. We and Xiaojun's father and mother will be in-laws in the future, and we will have a good discussion about the two children when we meet."

Luo Wen smiled bitterly, and said lightly, "People will change, we can't be too confident, it's better not to rush to bring up the matter of the two children, lest there will be unexpected complications and everyone will be unable to step down."

Chen Jie thought for a while, "That's true, let's talk about it when the time comes!"

Zhu Chunyan is a warm-hearted person who is good at arranging treats, and is also very familiar with the owner of Cuiyun Restaurant. She has reserved a table in advance and has been waiting for Luo Wen and Chen Jie at home.What surprised her was that Wu Pingshun and Xiaojun's mother came home before ten o'clock, and she asked in surprise, "Father, mother, why did you come so early? Didn't Xiaojun come back?"

Mrs. Xiao Jun said, "Both Xiao Jun and Bai Lingyan are back. They are going to Beizhuang to attend some classmate's homecoming banquet. They will come later. It's fine at home. Your father and I came earlier."

Zhu Chunyan said relievedly, "Well, I've booked the table, and we'll go there when Luo Xiao's parents come."

Not long after, the phone rang, and as soon as Zhu Chunyan answered it was Luo Wen, and they had already arrived outside the courtyard.Zhu Chunyan put down the phone, "Father, mother, Uncle Luo and the others are here, I'll go out and answer them."

When Luo Wen and Chen Jie came to the house, they greeted Wu Pingshun and Mrs. Xiaojun for a while, and they were very cordial.Chen Jie asked eagerly, "Brother, sister-in-law, why haven't you seen Xiaojun? Have you come back from the holidays?"

Wu Pingshun said, "He came back the day before yesterday. He had a classmate who had a door-to-door banquet. Let's go first and come over later."

Luo Wen said gratefully, "Brother Wu, I haven't seen you for a few years, you've lost a lot of weight. To be honest, if I didn't serve the army, my family wouldn't be able to reunite. If I didn't serve the army, I might not be able to live long ago. Yes. He reunited my family and saved me. All of this is because you and your sister-in-law taught your son well, and cultivated a good son who is responsible, courageous, good-natured, and kind-hearted. I always want to come and see you , thank you, but there are too many things at home, and I can't get away from it, so I feel really uneasy."

Wu Pingshun said understandingly, "These are what Xiaojun should do, and they are not worth mentioning at all. When Xiaojun came back, he said that it has not been easy for you all these years. It was hard for the whole family to get together. Unexpectedly, the child was born." It's really sad. But all of this is over, and there is still a long way to go, you two, don't be entangled in the past, so that you can stay together and live happily every day."

When Chen Jie heard Wu Pingshun mention sad things, she choked up and said, "Xiaojun and my Xiaoxiao are very nice. Every time I see them go to my house happily together, I feel very happy. Thinking of them As soon as I graduate, I have a job, I have a family, I don’t have to worry about food and clothing, and I feel happy from the bottom of my heart. It’s a pity, woo…” He bowed his head sadly and began to cry.

Xiaojun's mother hurriedly said, "Big sister, although Xiaojun and I met Xiaoxiao once, we liked Xiaoxiao very much, but they have no fate. This is fate, and no one can hide from it. Don't be too sad."

Chen Jie sobbed for a while, and said quietly, "Sister-in-law is right, I also want to let go, let him pass the past, settle down my little daughter Yingzi, and nothing will happen."

Mrs. Xiaojun said, "We are the same. We have many children, and it is not easy to bring them up one by one. Right now, we only hope that Xiaojun will finish his studies quickly, find a job, and marry a wife. We don't have to worry about him all day long." Worrying and suffering. Our hearts are the same, and we hope for the well-being of our children."

Chen Jie said, "Sister-in-law, to be honest, Xiaojun is indeed a rare child. I have always treated him as my own son, thinking about him all day long, and I am afraid of losing him. Although Xiaoxiao is gone, but I still have Yingzi, Xiaojun has always been very kind to her, cared about her and loved her everywhere, and was almost injured because of her brave fight against the gangsters. During Yingzi’s illness and hospitalization, Xiaojun ran around and asked the doctor to ask the school I paid for the treatment first, and I didn’t eat a good meal or sleep well for a few days. I also blame Yingzi for thinking too much, going around, and not being able to get together in the future, and the two of them didn’t get together earlier. Yingzi's attitude has also changed a lot, and the two really get along. This year, Lao Luo and I came back for the holidays, just for Yingzi's work. The factory leader has promised Yingzi to work in the factory hospital after graduation. Congratulations to you two."

Mrs. Xiaojun heard Chen Jie's intentions and didn't know how to answer the words for a while. Zhu Chunyan understood everything. One of her parents came to the door in person, and the other came back directly with Xiaojun, thinking that it was lively. Kanniang was speechless, and hurriedly laughed, "Father, mother, uncle, aunt, the time is almost up, and the military service may take a while, so let's not wait for him, let's go to the restaurant now."

Wu Pingshun borrowed the donkey from the slope and said, "Yes, yes, let's talk at the restaurant."

Luo Wen listened to the conversation between Chen Jie and Xiao Junniang, and kept observing the expressions and reactions of Wu Pingshun and Xiaojunniang. When Chen Jie finished speaking, he already had a bottom line in his mind, and things would not be as simple as Chen Jie thought. Wu Xiaojun couldn't continue talking, so he said, "It's rare for us to have a meal together, let's go!"

Chen Jie was hinted by Luo Wen, and she was not allowed to continue talking. In order not to spoil everyone's interest, the matter between Wu Xiaojun and Shao Yingying was never mentioned at the banquet, and everyone chatted happily while eating.

It was almost two o'clock in the afternoon when Wu Xiaojun was supported by Bai Lingyan into the restaurant.

Seeing him flushed and drunk, Wu Pingshun didn't get angry, and blamed, "Xiaojun, what's the matter with you, don't you know there are important guests here, and you still drink so much."

The moment Wu Xiaojun and Bai Lingyan walked into the room, Luo Wen and Chen Jie immediately remembered the scene where they met at Yimen, and everything became clear. A burst of sadness.Luo Wen smiled wryly and persuaded Wu Ping, "Brother Wu, Xiaojun may be a classmate who has not seen him for a long time, so it's okay to have a few more drinks, don't blame him!"

Chen Jie looked at Bai Lingyan quietly, feeling like a mess in her heart, and asked calmly, "Young lady, you look so familiar, Lao Luo and I seem to have met you somewhere."

Bai Lingyan knew that the two in front of her were Luo Xiao's parents, and seeing Chen Jie's gloomy and displeased expression, she purposely said frankly, "Auntie has a really good memory, we met at Yimen."

Zhu Chunyan asked in surprise, "Have you seen it?"

Bai Lingyan nodded lightly, and said bluntly, "Sister-in-law, my uncle and aunt are the parents of Xiaojun's classmate Shao Yingying. Since Yingying is Xiaojun's younger sister, we have a very good relationship."

Zhu Chunyan laughed and said, "So, we are all one family. Lingyan, are you getting used to it these few days?"

Bai Lingyan smiled and said, "Very good!"

Wu Pingshun looked at Luo Wen and Chen Jie's sullen faces, and yelled at Wu Xiaojun, "Xiaojun, why are you so ignorant, you uncle Luo and Aunt Chen are here, and you haven't seen each other yet to say hello!"

Wu Xiaojun half-closed his eyes, and said with a smile, "Uncle Luo, hello Auntie, Lingyan and I have been talking about going to see you, but you two have come back a long time ago and failed. Before the festival, Yingzi asked me to give you a sentence I'm afraid you two will be worried and sad, she lied to you. With Lingyan's testimony, Yingzi is my sister." As she spoke, she tilted her head on the table and snored without much effort.Bai Lingyan sat beside him, patted his back from time to time, and shouted in a low voice, "Xiaojun, wake up! Xiaojun, wake up!" No matter how much she yelled, Wu Xiaojun didn't respond.

Luo Wen and Chen Jie looked at Bai Lingyan's strange expression towards Wu Xiaojun. Although they couldn't be angry with what they said to him, they knew that they had nothing to say, so they got up and said goodbye to Wu Pingshun, "Brother Wu, sister-in-law, Xiao Jun really drank too much, let him rest for a while, we have to hurry, so we won't wait for him."

Wu Pingshun said angrily, "This kid just doesn't make people worry. I have to talk about him when I come down. He doesn't know how to respect people. Brother, don't be angry. I'll let him admit it to you two!"

Chen Jie said blankly, "Brother, Xiaojun is very sensible, you can't talk about him anymore, we are grateful to him and we haven't had a chance yet, how can we let him make mistakes for others, isn't it a shame for us!"

Wu Pingshun patted Luo Wen's shoulder lightly, and said shamelessly, "It's hard to talk about the child, we will meet later."

Chen Jie was full of joy but was splashed with cold water.It must be Yingzi's reason that Yingzi didn't date Wu Xiaojun, otherwise he wouldn't have been hiding himself.If he had known about this earlier, there would be no chance for Bai Lingyan. It was already too late.
