My mother-in-law did not come back that night. I got up at 4 a.m. and looked at the sleeping Tangtang. I smoothed my hair and went out quietly, thinking that if Tangtang cried, the old man downstairs should be able to hear it. I took my cell phone and went downstairs, and heard the old man snoring loudly in the bedroom. I remembered that I hadn't seen the old man in the past few days. I guess he had been working at the table for several nights and he was exhausted.

After leaving the house and locking the door, Jiang Shuya walked quickly to Grandma Sun's vineyard. Sun Qi was lighting the vineyard with a flashlight. When Jiang Shuya entered the vineyard, she found a well on the right hand side of the door. It was not very eye-catching, but the well showed a white light, which made her take a deep breath. There was more than one such well. Grandma Sun's vineyard was close to the inside, and there was no pond water source nearby, so she could not irrigate freely. She could only dig several wells in the field to meet the irrigation needs, but it also brought safety hazards.

A beam of light shone on Jiang Shuya's face, and she subconsciously covered her eyes with her hands. Sun Qi saw that her hair was casually tied up, with scattered hair on both sides of her forehead, setting off a delicate face and exuding a gentle breath. She was casually wearing pink pajamas, which set off her fair skin, like a fairy. Sun Qi had seen all kinds of beauties in big cities, but rarely saw a natural face without makeup. Such a soft and beautiful person, who was so casual without any discomfort, appeared in front of him. He swallowed, smiled, and handed over the flashlight.

"No need. Just tell me which area I can cut. I'm very fast. You don't even need to take pictures." Jiang Shuya picked up the scissors in the bamboo basket and half-bent over to search inside.

Sun Qi gave the instructions with a red face, feeling thankful that it was still dark and that her true identity was not exposed. Fortunately, Jiang Shuya did not notice anything. The further she walked in, the more familiar figure she saw. It was Zhang Xiaohui, who had also come to help. The two of them picked the grapes in the dark tacitly, filling all the baskets. Sun Qi was responsible for transporting the grapes out, and they kept coming back until the sky gradually brightened. Only then did Jiang Shuya remember Tangtang at home, said hello to Zhang Xiaohui, and went home.

Before she reached home, she heard Tangtang crying from afar. She trotted all the way and opened the door to enter the house, only to find that the old man was not affected by Tangtang at all, and was still crying as usual. Tangtang's crying made her panic. She took two steps at a time and went upstairs, only to find that Tangtang had fallen to the ground, lying on the ground with her head raised. Her mouth was full of saliva, her face was covered with dust, there was a big purple-red bump on her head, tears were in her eyes, and she was sobbing constantly.

It seemed like she had fallen for a long time. Jiang Shuya picked up Tangtang with heartache and cleaned the dust stains on her face. She found iodine disinfectant in the medicine box, treated the wound, coaxed her and patted her back, then lifted up her clothes to feed her, believing that only by drinking milk would she stop crying and feel safe enough.

Unexpectedly, after she took two puffs, she started to cry loudly again, and then cried repeatedly in shock. Jiang Shuya hugged Tangtang and cried together.

When the two of them were tired of crying, they lay down on the bed and took another nap. After waking up, Jiang Shuya took Tangtang to the health center to check her forehead. Fortunately, it was just a bump, and the bones were not injured. If it was a flesh wound, it would heal in a few days by applying medicine every day. It was already noon, so they ate a bowl of fried noodles at Jiangdao Snack Shop before going home.

When we arrived at Sun's house, grapes were neatly packed outside the yard, and the sound of packing could still be heard from inside. Seeing Jiang Shuya coming in, Grandma Sun said with a chuckle, "There are still dozens of boxes to be loaded onto the car. You can take a break first!" Tangtang was still in the back seat of the car, looking around vigilantly. She had never been to this place before, and her legs were kicking around.

Three vans stopped at the intersection, and several workers helped to move the goods. Many people gathered at the entrance, and exclaimed in amazement. "Grandma Sun, your eldest grandson is really capable. He helped you with so much money right after he came back. He really cares about his family. Where are you going to send it to?" a short and fat woman in the crowd asked.

Grandma Sun's eyes narrowed into slits as she smiled: "My eldest grandson just came back yesterday. Xiaoya asked me to send these today."

Everyone looked at Jiang Shuya who was holding the child, with obvious scrutiny in their eyes. They didn't interact much with the Huang family because the couple had a bad reputation. They had been going to mahjong halls in pairs since they were young, wasting a lot of time. They didn't work in the fields and locked the door at home all day long.

Two years ago, my son got married suddenly. I heard that the bride was from another place, which was not surprising. Just imagine that a family with a bad reputation could be known throughout the island. Who would be willing to marry their daughter to their family? They could only find someone from another place who they were not familiar with.

Because they were not familiar with each other, no one tried to get close to Jiang Shuya, and everyone just glanced at her with scrutiny.

After a while, the three cars were finally full. Sun Qi followed the first car. He knew Yi Yun RH, so it was convenient for him to give directions.

Because she had to take Tangtang with her, Jiang Shuya asked Zhang Xiaohui to follow the car so that she could take turns holding Tangtang. The journey would take more than an hour, and it was really inconvenient for her to leave her at home.

The car drove slowly all the way and the journey was relatively smooth. After more than an hour, they finally arrived at the gate of Yiyun. Chen Lin waved to Jiang Shuya and pointed the way to the main entrance of the company, where several large carts were already prepared.

As soon as the car stopped, people came forward to move boxes, count boxes, and stack boxes. It was a busy scene. A middle-aged man with glasses and a blue work badge opened several boxes of grapes for inspection with a serious expression. He looked down and picked one to taste. This action immediately made the visitor's throat rise. Why is there such a routine? It was not discussed in advance. If he checked it this way, how could these hundreds of boxes withstand his tossing and turning? The ripe grapes are easy to fall off, so he can only handle them with care. Chen Lin walked over and asked, "Mr. Shen, how is it?"

"The taste is about the same, please check it out!" The man spat out the grape skin and said with a smile.

This flipping operation was really scary, and my tense face finally relaxed.

After counting 360 boxes, there were two extra boxes. Jiang Shuya told Chen Lin that those two boxes were given away and he could do with them as he pleased. Chen Lin nodded in understanding, walked up to Mr. Shen and said a few words, then called Jiang Shuya to go with him to the Finance Department to get the money. Jiang Shuya handed the candies to Xiaohui, and followed Mr. Shen and Chen Lin into the Yiyun office building.

After entering the financial office and waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Chen Lin quickly handed the money to Jiang Shuya after checking the accounts, also put it in an envelope, and took her out of the office building.

Jiang Shuya looked at Chen Lin carefully. In her previous life, this man was good in every way except that he was a bit chauvinistic. He and his sister had two daughters after marriage. However, his parents-in-law favored boys over girls and constantly bullied Shuting. They often found excuses to take her to see doctors and prescribed medicine to regulate her body, all in the hope of giving birth to a boy. Chen Lin remained silent and did not stop his mother's behavior. In the end, his sister could not bear it anymore and moved out of the house, gave up everything, and lived separately.
