Chapter 37 Her Weakness
A woman in her thirties looked inside sneakily outside Zhao Qinglan's house.
"Sister-in-law, how do we send a letter?"
Wu Mei saw the envelope in Zhao Qinglan's hand and said, "Just the food store, there is a mailbox. You may not have noticed it last time."
"Yes, I really don't remember."
"I'll go buy something, let's go together."
"Sure, then I'll go back and bring a basket, and see what I've bought."
As soon as Zhao Qinglan came out of the Sun family, she saw a strange woman looking outside her home.
"Who are you looking for?" she asked as she walked over.
The woman was startled when she saw her and quickly said, "If you don't look for anyone, I'll just pass by and take a look." After that, she turned around and ran away.
Looking at her back gradually fading away, Zhao Qinglan frowned.
This woman looks strange no matter how she looks at it.
After thinking about it for a while, she didn't think of it, so she shook her head and went into the house to get things.
When she came out again, Wu Mei also asked.
"I just heard you talking to someone, what's wrong?"
"It's just a woman who stands outside my house and keeps looking inside. When I asked her who she was looking for, she said she was just passing by."
Wu Mei became surprised when she heard this. "Passing by?"
"Sister-in-law, people outside our family area can't come in easily, right?"
"Of course, although we are just a family area and not a military camp, we are not allowed to come in any casual person. Only those living here can enter and exit freely."
Zhao Qinglan thought about it, otherwise what would the sentry guarding the gate do?
From this point of view, that woman also lives in the family area?
Maybe if I see you next time, she can ask Sister Wu Mei to see who the woman is.
When it gets cold, there are fewer people willing to come out, and only children are running around because of playing.
I didn't meet anyone along the way and they went to the side food store.
After buying some things, Zhao Qinglan also threw the letter into the mailbox.
As soon as the letter was sent out, she would wait for the reply.
She also thoughtfully attached stamps and a pound of national food stamps to the envelope.
Even though she and Xiaofang from the village were friends before, she hadn't contacted each other for several years and wanted to ask someone for family matters, so it would be better to give her something.
Xiaofang received her food coupons and probably could have more snacks after receiving her food coupons.
Zhao Qinglan had never thought about writing a letter to her home directly, but after she wrote the letter back, she still said whether the letter could reach her sister as soon as possible.
If the others of the Zhao family see it first, they will be alarmed.
On the way, Wu Mei also asked Zhao Qinglan where she wanted to send a letter, but Zhao Qinglan only talked about her hometown.
Wu Mei also said that she did the right thing. She had married so far, so she could not report her family safety. If she was anxious, she could still call her house.
Li Huai didn't mention anything about Zhao Qinglan's relationship with her mother's family, so Wu Mei didn't know much.
Zhao Qinglan did not intend to explain such a private matter for a while.
What should I do after that? Let’s wait until she sees Xiaofang’s reply.
The atmosphere at home that Zhao Qinglan was thinking about was not very good these days.
She followed Li Huai with her child and flew away, and the Zhao family had to return without success.
The old lady was naturally unhappy because she didn't bring anything back. The first person to bear the brunt was Boss Zhao.
Boss Zhao was scolded by his own mother and dared not speak back. When he returned to his own home, he spread all the fire on his wife and children.
Especially his wife, she was complained that she had only given birth to a few girls, which made him unable to raise his head in his own home and even the whole village.
Zhao Qinglan's mother, she didn't even say a word of refutation except crying.
As for Zhao Qinglan's two sisters, they have been used to it over the years. Although they feel wronged for their mothers, they dare not resist their own fathers.
I thought I could get a lot of benefits from my eldest granddaughter, but I didn’t even have any hair.
Old Mrs. Zhao was also very angry, and I didn't know how many sentences I cursed Zhao Qinglan on the open and secret.
He also said that he would marry Zhao Qinglan's sister, the remaining two money-losing goods, early so that he could recover some losses for the family.
That's right, this is a huge loss in Zou's opinion.
Zhao Qinglan's two sisters were also frightened when they heard their grandmother's words. They quickly asked their mother for help while the eldest son Zhao was away.
Unfortunately, they couldn't get any hope. If their mother Sun could make decisions for them, she wouldn't have watched her most capable daughter marry the widower Wang Dahai as her stepmother.
There was no hope of asking for help, Zhao Qinglan's younger sister Zhao Qingju said in despair: "Second sister, what should we do?"
Zhao Qingzhu was also desperate, looking at the roof with his eyes blank.
"Little sister, you said, why didn't my elder sister take us with me?"
I knew that Zhao Qinglan married another young officer and went away from home.
Zhao Qingzhu and her sister were indescribable envy.
But if you want to talk about resentment, you can't talk about it.
Both of them are daughters and granddaughters who are not valued by the Zhao family, and they know how hard it is to live in this family.
Speaking of which, my elder sister is the best person in the family to treat them, even better than my mother.
Before the eldest sister got married, she was scolded and suffered.
But they are used to being cowardly and have never helped their elder sister.
...
Wang family, Old Lady Wang is so troubled that she is still uncomfortable.
These days, because of her son's divorce, she has been ignorant in her heart, and the fall has become more and more serious.
If Old Lady Wang fell down while Zhao Qinglan was still there, she would definitely be busy serving her.
But now, Zhao Qinglan is gone.
Wang Dazhi has to go to work, and Wang Xiaofei and his sister have to go to school. The matter of serving people can only fall on Old Man Wang.
Since Zhao Qinglan entered the Wang family's door, all the Wang family have become hands-off bosses.
This kind of service to others is not easy. In just two days, Old Man Wang became tired and lost weight.
The rest of the Wang family were not happy either.
Before, Old Lady Wang had made do with cooking and washing clothes at home, but now Old Lady Wang has fallen down and there is no one who makes do with it.
Relying on Wang Dazhi to do laundry and cook?
It is impossible to do laundry.
I almost burned my house when cooking.
If it were Wang Dazhi before, he would have been the workshop director, so he would have taken his family to eat at a state-owned hotel for a few days.
However, the family's deposits were taken away by Zhao Qinglan, and now he has become an ordinary worker and his income has dropped sharply.
Even when he went to a state-owned hotel, he couldn't bear to let it go.
The family is full of chaos every day because of these trivial matters in life, and there is no peace left before.
In just a few days, the Wang family experienced earth-shaking changes.
And all of this is just because Zhao Qinglan is missing.
It was also at this moment that Mrs. Wang and his wife, as well as Wang Dazhi, began to regret it vaguely.
If I had known it, they would have been better to Zhao Qinglan if I had known it.
Regret no matter how much regret it, it did not prevent them from cursing Zhao Qinglan and his daughter on a daily basis.
Seeing that his son came back in shame again, Old Mrs. Wang, who was lying on the bed, suddenly called her son in.
"Mom, don't bother me, okay? I'm tired." He began to get impatient as soon as he came in.
Old Mrs. Wang was a little sad, but she still had to give her advice to her son.
"Dazhi, although Zhao Qinglan divorced you, Xiaoduo is still the child of our Wang family. Her surname is Wang."
After being reminded by his mother, Wang Dazhi's eyes lit up.
Yes, Zhao Qinglan is so precious to her daughter.
If he brought Xiaoduo back, Zhao Qinglan had a weakness in his hands, and he would still let him control it.
The more I think about it, the better he thinks this idea is.
