Movie Variety Show: Starting from a New World

No. 95 Luoguxiang, south of Peking City, in Zhao Cheng’s home in the west wing of the front yard.

"That's the little wife I found for you!" Pingping said proudly to Zhao Cheng.

Pingping's words surprised Zhao Cheng.

"No, my dear, what are you doing? We can't marry two wives now! It's against the law! Besides, when did I ever agree to take a concubine?"

Zhao Cheng had to be anxious. There were already a lot of evildoers in this courtyard. Besides, he had to keep a low profile. How could he keep a woman at home?

Pingping said nonchalantly, "I didn't tell anyone that this was your concubine! I just said I found my lost sister and she's just living in our house. Who can say anything? And I've already made an agreement with her. If you agree to her being my concubine, then I'll let her in. If not, just treat it as asking someone to help take care of me, and then I'll marry her off when the time is right!"

"You are totally outrageous! Where is she from? Is her family capable?" After saying this, Zhao Cheng wanted to go out and explain things to them.

But before he could even leave the house, Pingping pulled him back.

"Oh, Brother Cheng, just listen to me! They suffered a disaster, and their parents were lost in the flood. I specially selected them from the refugees organized by the street. And she is also willing to stay in our house. After all, our family is well-off, and we don't care about her being an orphan. I specifically talked to the street to let her register her household in our house with the identity of my cousin. We can talk about it later if there is anything!" Pingping had an expression that said, "I have done everything for you," which made Zhao Cheng's heart beat fast.

This woman is so brave! She's worthy of being the one who always uses a submachine gun to attack people!

"My dear wife, aren't you a little too bold? Besides, you are enough for me. I don't want to find another woman!" Zhao Cheng hugged Pingping tightly.

"I know Brother Cheng treats me well, but I don't want him to endure too much hardship, and we are both alone and have no one to help us. No matter what, this person must stay. Even if you don't want to, we can arrange for her to get married later! As long as she is willing, and I have arranged for her to take my shift at the steel mill. Isn't this the best of both worlds!" Pingping had an expression as if to praise me for being smart.

When Zhao Cheng heard that Pingping had even given up her job for this, he had no choice but to do so for now. After all, if he really kicked her out now, how would she survive in an unfamiliar place?

"Hehe, Brother Cheng, you don't know, I arranged for her to take my shift at the steel mill, and the steel mill also gave her the side room next to the ear room we rented before. This way we can live close to each other and it's convenient for us to take care of each other!" Pingping looked very proud.

Zhao Cheng scratched Pingping's smug face with his hand.

"Okay, call her over and I'll ask her. If she's willing, we'll do this for now. Anyway, you're getting further along in the pregnancy and you really need someone to take care of you! We'll talk about the future later." Zhao Cheng said helplessly.

"Lili, come in after you finish cooking! Brother Cheng is back and it's a good time to see you!" Pingping heard what Zhao Cheng said and went straight to the kitchen to tell the woman.

In fact, when Zhao Cheng entered the house and spoke, Lili already knew that it must be the man of the house who had returned, and she felt very nervous.

Her family lived in a small village on the bank of the Huai River. When the flood hit, her parents and younger brother were washed away. She happened to be outside and was hung on a tree. She was rescued three days later after the flood receded.

Unfortunately, my parents and younger brother were found drowned more than 20 miles downstream. I had no choice but to flee with the villagers.

Along the way, he ate at hundreds of houses and also ate grass roots and tree bark. After finally arriving in Peking, he was taken in by the government and finally had a full meal.

Later, when I was assigned to Jiaodaokou Subdistrict, I was told that I would go on blind dates with young men of marriageable age there. The government also said that if the blind date was successful, I could marry and move to Beijing, and the government would register my household registration.

She wanted to find a good family with great confidence, but most of the people she went on blind dates were a little older. Of the limited number of young people, no one had chosen her yet.

People said that she had a pretty face but was too thin and might have trouble giving birth, so no one wanted her.

This situation almost made her cry. If the blind date was unsuccessful, she would be sent back to her hometown with her fellow villagers. However, the land and houses in her hometown were washed away. She was a girl with nothing and would starve to death if she went back.

Just when she was extremely anxious, Pingping appeared and called her to a corner.

"What's your name?"

"Sister, my name is Zhou Daya."

"How old?"

"I'm 18! Sister, I'm the only one in my family! Please take me in! If I'm really sent back to my hometown, the crops that have just been planted in the fields will be flooded, and the houses and other things will be washed away. I'm a girl and I can only wait to die if I go back to the village!" Zhou Daya begged bitterly.

Pingping looked at Zhou Daya as if she were seeing her former self. But the only good thing was that she met the young lady, who protected her after her parents died. Otherwise, she would probably never grow up in that big house!

"I'll tell you the truth, I took you in because I wanted to find a concubine for my man, but he doesn't want to, so I plan to do it for him secretly. I can take you in and tell others that you are my cousin. You can live directly in my house and I will also register your household registration in my house! Are you willing?" Pingping looked at Zhou Daya and said gently.

"I do, sister!" Zhou Daya thought about it for less than a minute and agreed directly! After all, if she couldn't settle down here now, she would definitely be sent back to her hometown, and going back to her hometown would mean death! Because she, a girl, couldn't protect anything!

"Okay, then come with me. From today on, your name is Zhou Lili, and you are my third aunt's cousin! Remember? It's not too late if you regret it now. But if you register your household registration, you won't have the chance to regret it!" Pingping finally confirmed with Zhou Daya!

"I don't regret it, sister. I will listen to you!" Zhou Daya answered affirmatively without hesitation.

Finally, Pingping found Director Wang and told him what they had discussed.

"Pingping, think carefully. Once you register her, you're doomed! Even if you take her in, all her food, clothing and expenses in the future will depend on your Zhao Cheng! This is no small burden!" Director Wang said.

"Sister Wang, I want Lili to take over my job at the steel rolling mill so that I can stay at home and take care of the baby. Brother Cheng and I are both the only ones left, and I want to have a few more children for Brother Cheng. Brother Cheng is so busy, he definitely can't be at home with me, so I want to take Lili in and treat us as a sister, as long as she can help me!" Pingping had already thought of what to say.

Director Wang thought so too. When Zhao Cheng was busy, Pingping would find someone else to accompany him. If something happened to him, it would be a good idea to take in a helpless little girl! Pingping was also planning to let this girl take over her job. She was really willing to do that!

"Okay, then I'll do it for you!" Director Wang agreed, thinking of the difficulties faced by Zhao Cheng and his wife.
