Xie Qing's expression darkened, but his tone did not change: "I'm sorry to trouble you so much."

"What's the point? We used to be best friends. Without you, I wouldn't have anyone to talk to about a lot of things in my heart."

Xie Yanqiu found his own clothes from the cabinet and gave them to Xie Qing: "Try to see if you can wear these two pieces first. We have similar body shapes, so you have no problem wearing my clothes."

Xie Qing looked grateful and continued: "Yeah, Yanqiu, Yanqiu is so kind to me."

"It's okay, who among us is following the other."

With Director Yu's blessing, Xie Jiazhen's case was quickly completed. The two of them happily picked up the silver bracelets and received free preparations.

There is no point in Xie Yanqiu staying in Xiejia Village.

After bidding farewell to the village chief and secretary, the group set out for Han Shuzhen's home.

I left in the morning and arrived near evening.

Han Shuzhen received a call from Zhou Qi on the first day. The next day before going to work, she went to the vegetable market to buy all Xie Yanqiu's favorite dishes, and took the afternoon off to cook at home.

It was getting dark and only a few people arrived at the door of the house. After a few knocks, the door was opened.

Han Shuna stood at the door with a face full of surprise, "Come in quickly! The meal has just been prepared!"

The moment he saw Han Shuna, Xie Qing looked slightly stunned. Xie Yanqiu tugged on his sleeves and said without any surprise: "Go in first."

"Mom, she is Xie Qing, my childhood friend. Zhou Qi told you yesterday when she called you."

Xie Qing secretly rubbed his hands and shouted very restrainedly: "Hello, aunt."

"Hey! Hey! Hello!"

After she finished speaking, Xie Yanqiu pulled the little girl held by Xie Qing over: "This is Niuniu, Xie Qing's daughter, Niuniu, her name is grandma!"

Niuniu timidly shouted: "Hello, grandma."

"Hey! Hey!" Han Shuna agreed hurriedly and turned around to find the snacks and candies she bought for her children in the morning: "Come on, Niuniu, eat some candies. Grandma heard that you were coming yesterday and went to buy them today. Can you try them? eat?"

The candy was placed in front of her eyes, but Niu Niu didn't take it. She turned to look at Xie Qing. Seeing both of them standing there at a loss, Han Shuna immediately understood what was going on.

It's my first time at someone else's house, so I'm sorry.

She didn't care whether Niu Niu wanted it or not, she put the candy into Niu Niu's hand: "Eat it, you can do whatever you want in grandma's place, just treat it as your own home."

Xie Yanqiu took her little hand and said softly: "Yes, Niuniu, aunt brings you to grandma's place to celebrate the New Year, you just treat this place as your own home."

"Really?" Niu Niu's childish voice was a little unbelievable.

Growing up, she was always beaten and scolded by her grandmother and father. In her memory, she had never seen such a kind and kind grandmother, and she couldn't help but want to get close...

Xie Yanqiu confirmed her words: "Of course it's true, this is your home."

"Yeah." She took the candy and carefully stuffed it into her pocket. After thinking about it, she took one out and put it into Xie Qing's hand, "Mom, you eat it too, candy, it's sweet..."

This sentence made the whole room laugh happily with the little girl. With Xie Qing's blushing face, Han Shuna couldn't stop praising Niu Niu: "Good boy! What a good boy! Filial!"

The nervousness of mother and daughter since they entered the house was relieved by the hearty laughter.

Xie Yanqiu felt her stomach. She was hungry. She had been traveling for a long day and she was pregnant. She was so hungry that her chest was touching her back.

Han Shuna immediately understood what Xie Yanqiu meant and told everyone to wash their hands and eat.

Xie Qing and Niu Niu, who were sitting at a round table to eat for the first time, could not move their eyes when they saw a table full of chicken, duck and fish.

In Xiejia Village, they couldn't eat meat even during the holidays. Once, at the end of the year, the family was killing pigs. Xie Qing secretly dipped his fingers in the lard and licked it while no one was in the kitchen.

Unexpectedly, she was bumped into by Li Guizhi. She was thrown into the yard by Chen Liu that day, and she was freezing for half the night in the cold winter.

It was not until the middle of the night that everyone was freezing. Li Guizhi thought Xie Qing was dying, and was afraid of causing trouble, so he pulled Xie Qing back into the house to save his life.

Now she was facing the table of dishes and looked up at the other three people who had normal expressions. At this moment, she was deeply aware of the gap between herself and this family.

Poverty is the gap between her and Xie Yanqiu.

Obviously both of them were living in the quagmire of life before, so why did Xie Yanqiu fly up to a branch and become a phoenix after marrying Zhou Qi, enjoying the bliss of the world!

She is not reconciled!

Why did God leave her to crawl around in the quagmire alone?

Xie Qing hid his hands under the table and secretly clenched them tightly, his reluctance getting stronger and stronger.

Han Shuna didn't know what she was thinking. Seeing Xie Qing being extremely restrained at the table, she just thought she was a newbie here and was not used to it.

She took the two chicken legs on the table and placed one in Xie Yanqiu's bowl and the other in Niu Niu's bowl.

Niuniu had just been immersed in eating. Now she saw the extra chicken drumsticks in front of her. She didn't even have time to say thank you, so she picked up the drumsticks and stuffed them into her mouth.

Han Shuna looked distressed. The little girl's complexion was sallow, and her little hands were nothing but bones. It looked like she had not lived well in her original family.

She picked up a piece of braised pork and handed it to Xie Qing's bowl: "Qingqing, you don't have to be restrained with auntie. Your uncle is not at home during the Chinese New Year, and auntie likes to be lively. You guys are here, and auntie is happier than you are!"

"Well! I'm actually just afraid of causing trouble to Auntie. Niuniu and I don't even have a formal place to stay now."

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Han Shuna: "Silly boy, just treat this place as your home, and don't say such depressing words again."

Xie Qing lowered his head slightly and glanced in the direction of Zhou Qi. He saw the man picking vegetables for Xie Yanqiu and peeling shrimps for her with his own hands. Even when Han Shuna was talking to him, Zhou Qi didn't even look at her.

In an instant, the woman felt an overwhelming sadness in her heart.

After dinner, Xie Qing rushed to help Han Shuna clear the table. Han Shuna couldn't resist, so she handed the table to Xie Qing. Niu Niu had been playing with toys in the living room since the meal.

Zhou Qi has been responsible for washing the dishes at home. Xie Qing put the dishes and chopsticks he collected from the table into the sink. Zhou Qi turned on the faucet and washed the dishes expertly.

Xie Qing glanced past Han Shuna and saw someone following Xie Yanqiu into the bedroom. She picked up the dirty dishes and slowly approached the sink, looking at Zhou Qi intentionally or unintentionally.

Zhou Qi noticed the look from the woman and asked doubtfully: "Is there something on my face?"

"No, no, no." Xie Qing was alone with Zhou Qi for the first time. He was so nervous that he stuttered when speaking. However, thinking of his own purpose, he still managed to calm down his emotions and cautiously tried.

"Brother Zhou, why did you and Xie Yanqiu get married?"

As soon as this question came up, Zhou Qi was stunned for a moment. He responded without thinking: "Because of my father's order."

Xie Qing was stunned for a second, and suddenly felt ecstatic. Zhou Qi meant that his marriage to Xie Yanqiu was also forced!It's even possible that his unabashed love for Xie Yanqiu was just to perfunctory his parents!

Thinking of this, she suddenly gained a little more confidence. She hadn't been happy for three seconds before the man's words were like a basin of cold water that poured out all the hope in her heart.
