Li Cuilan subconsciously glanced ahead and saw no one. She didn't know how many people were standing at the corner behind her. She blushed and said:
"What are you talking about? Your mother and I are already so old, how can we think about such beautiful things anymore."
Zhou Yan said reluctantly:
"Finding someone older will always work. Anyway, you have to think of a solution for me."
"Think about it, Mom will definitely care about you. You are Mom's daughter. Can I not take care of you for a little bit?" After Li Cuilan said this, she pulled Zhou Yan away.
Su Wanyan looked at Su Guozhi not far away, knowing that he knew what he knew, so he said nothing and turned to leave.
The next day, the sky was gray and the room was quiet. Suddenly, Su Wanyan heard the sound of washing from downstairs.
She opened her eyes impatiently, took out her watch and looked at it. It was only five o'clock. She used her elbow to hit the man next to her and said:
"Did you ask your mother to come over so early to do some work?"
"No." Jiang Liting sleepily took the pajamas and put them on, and went downstairs with Su Wanyan.
Qin Sufang's wounds on her face were not treated, and she was squatting in the yard washing clothes with her withered hair.
When she saw the two of them, she immediately said at a loss: "Did I disturb you by washing clothes?"
Su Wanyan yawned, shook his head slightly and said:
"It's okay, it's okay. I just don't have to come so early next time. Just come at seven o'clock."
Qin Sufang nodded hurriedly, and then said nervously like a child: "Then can't I do it now?"
Su Wanyan said: "Sit there and rest for a while until we fall asleep."
Qin Sufang nodded hurriedly, and then sat there anxiously, with her hands and feet tied up.
Like an obedient, thoughtless animal that has been trained to do whatever is told.
Su Wanyan felt a little awkward, but he went upstairs without saying anything and asked Jiang Liting:
"Is there something wrong with her? She was far away yesterday and didn't feel it. Today she looks weird."
"She was beaten by Jiang Ergou. When I first met her before, she was quite stubborn. She tried to find a way to escape every day. Later, she was beaten by Jiang Ergou so that she would do whatever she asked."
Jiang Liting lay on the bed and spoke nonchalantly, without any wavering in his tone, as if it was no big deal at all.
But Su Wanyan heard the miserable half of a woman's life, and she had no intention of lying back on the bed and falling asleep.
Jiang Liting suddenly said: "By the way, there is suddenly an outsider in this family. From now on, you should lock up your jewelry and bankbooks."
Su Wanyan thought so. After all, it was necessary to be on guard against others. She opened the drawer and revealed a stack of banknotes and bankbooks inside. Then she put all the jewelry on the dressing table in the wardrobe drawer and locked it up.
After she finished everything, she washed up, changed her clothes and went downstairs. She looked at Qin Sufang and realized that she was still sitting in the same position when she left.
Is there really something wrong with being tamed?
Su Wanyan couldn't explain clearly, so he looked at her regretfully and said:
"Have you eaten in the morning?"
Before Qin Sufang came, Jiang Ergou specifically told her to do it well or he would beat her to death, but she never wanted to be beaten again, so she nodded hurriedly:
"Eat, eat, can you work now?"
Su Wanyan frowned slightly, noticing the infatuation in her eyes, and said nicely:
"You don't have to cook from now on. You only need to wash the clothes and clean the house. If you don't have anything else to do, you can go back and rest."
Qin Sufang nodded hurriedly: "Oh, okay."
Su Wanyan didn't know what to talk about, so he gestured:
"You do the laundry."
Qin Sufang stood up in a flash, and then went to wash clothes. She was as panicky as she wanted, as if she couldn't wait even a second.
Just as Su Wanyan was about to make breakfast, Zhou Caifeng brought over a plate of dumplings and said with a smile:
"Wanyan, this was just wrapped, it will save you a lot of work. By the way, Li Ting was okay yesterday, right?"
How could Su Wanyan not see that she was deliberately asking about what happened yesterday? She returned to the kitchen with the dumplings:
"He's such a big man, you don't need to worry about him."
"Aren't I afraid that the two of them will fight if the matter is not settled? My Li Ting has a bad temper, and he won't do anything serious."
After Zhou Caifeng muttered, seeing Su Wanyan ignoring her, she turned towards Qin Sufang and said:
"Sufang, what's going on between you and Old Widow Jiang? Tell your aunt."
Qin Sufang said: "No, I don't have anything to do. I just help my uncle with work."
Zhou Caifeng continued to coax:
"Then did your uncle do anything to you?"
Qin Sufang: "My uncle asked me to take off my clothes when I got hot. I took off my clothes and worked for a while and felt that it wasn't too hot, so I put them on again."
Zhou Caifeng doesn't mind watching the excitement:
"Hey, if you take off your clothes, will he look at you for a song?"
Su Wanyan sat behind the stove in the kitchen, listening to the conversation between the two, always feeling a little embarrassed.
She interrupted coldly: "What are you talking about? There are children in the house, how bad is it to hear that?"
"It's nothing, let's not talk about it." Zhou Caifeng finished happily and said to Qin Sufang: "When you are done with the work later, remember to clean the pig pen again."
Qin Sufang nodded, her hands and feet were extremely smooth, and she quickly finished all the work, but Su Wanyan asked her to go home.
But she hesitated and did not move out, and said cautiously: "Can you find some more work for me to do?"
"What's wrong?" Su Wanyan felt strange, how could anyone be so reluctant to leave work early.
Qin Sufang explains why:
"When I came here, Ergou told me to go back during lunch, and then come back in the afternoon. It's too early to go back now, and I'll get beaten."
Su Wanyan said to Jiang Liting who was eating:
"Why don't you tell Jiang Ergou, otherwise it won't be a problem for you to sit here."
Jiang Liting raised his eyelids and looked at her:
"You forgot, when I go to the factory from now on, you have to go with me. She will stay here to look after the children at home, and let her eat here at noon."
Su Wanyan thought he was angry before, but he never imagined that he would really have to take her with him all the time.
She hesitated and said: "It's not very good. You are working, or discussing business, etc., what will it be like for me to follow you?"
Jiang Liting raised his eyebrows and said:
"She looks like my wife."
Su Wanyan: "I won't go. Running every day will be too troublesome. There will be nothing to do if I go there. I just sit there all day long. It's boring."
"Who said that? My monthly expenses, payments from suppliers, and piece-rate income from my subordinates are all paid for by myself. You can help with these in the future."
"Not going."
"If you're not going, why don't you want to see someone while I'm not at home?"
"You already think so, what else can I say."
"Are you going to piss me off to death for being a widow?"
Jiang Liting quarreled with Su Wanyan reluctantly, while Qin Sufang stood at the door in a daze, looking at the two with envy in her eyes.
She seemed to remember that she had had this kind of atmosphere with someone before, but who was that person?
She couldn't remember clearly.
