Chapter 737 Tao Xiaoyue's Visit
The end of July was scorching hot.
Especially at noon, every breath of air I breathe feels hot.
After lunch, everyone couldn't help but take a nap, which made the courtyard particularly quiet.
The same goes for the Jia family.
The once obese Jia Zhang had already accumulated rich experience in preventing heatstroke. He would lie on the ground early in the morning, leaning against the ground to absorb the slightest bit of coolness.
Banggeng was lying in the new house, and Tao Xiaoyue was helping to fan him, which seemed quite comfortable.
Seeing that Banggeng had fallen asleep, Tao Xiaoyue quietly came to the door, listened for a while, and seeing that there was no movement outside, she opened the door and walked out.
At this time, she was most afraid that Huaihua would follow suit.
Fortunately, through the window, Tao Xiaoyue saw Huaihua napping at the table, and quickly fled from the central courtyard.
However, when she arrived at the front yard and stood under the scorching sun with no one around, she panicked again.
For her, the place was unfamiliar.
I don’t know who to look for or who to ask.
And there are still many concerns.
No matter where, whether it is a blind date or a marriage, no one will speak ill of the groom in front of outsiders, except for some people with bad intentions.
An idea suddenly flashed through Tao Xiaoyue's mind, and she had an idea in her mind.
Qin Huairu once said yesterday that Banggeng's uncle-in-law Wang Tiedan is not an ordinary person and is a high-ranking official. A person like him should not tell lies, right?
Thinking of this, Tao Xiaoyue searched all the way and walked towards Yard 101.
Courtyard 101.
Wang Tiedan was lying dead in the living room, with his parents' nagging in his ears.
"Look at you. It's so hot today. The train must be like a furnace. It's okay for Jinbao and Jinlu, but Jinxiang and the others are still so young. How much suffering must they have endured!"
"You came back by plane, but you let your son, niece, and nephew take the train. Tell me, what were you thinking!?"
"Mom, this is a group activity for children. It's not good to act alone. This is called collective honor!" Qin Jingru explained on the side.
"What sense of honor? I've heard that Director Zhao went to Yangcheng to pick up his child, and went directly to Shanghai. If he can do it, why can't we?"
"Mom, it's not hot on the train. They are all sleeper berths. With the windows open, it's cool too."
"Nonsense, how cool can a metal shell be?"
Wang Tiedan moved his buttocks and turned his back to his mother to express his protest.
This made my mother even more unhappy.
"Tiedan, look at your attitude. Did you ask clearly when the train will arrive?"
"Mom, I've found out that it will be around 3pm tomorrow afternoon. Don't worry, it won't delay you from picking up the child."
"Ah~ I feel uncomfortable thinking about the child suffering in that iron box while I am here enjoying the cool breeze."
Wang Tiedan did not refute. It seemed that he should let his parents take a train ride and experience it when he had the chance.
As we were chatting, there was a knock on the door.
Qin Jingru stood up and opened the door. After a while, a pretty girl with sweat all over her forehead walked in.
"Girl, who are you looking for?" Hu Yulan asked.
"Mom, look for Brother Tiedan, a great wife." Qin Jingru said.
"Bang terrier wife?"
Hu Yulan looked at Tao Xiaoyue and had never seen her before.
Tao Xiaoyue gave a wry smile and hurriedly greeted him.
"Hello, grandpa and grandma, hello, great grandma."
At this time, Wang Tiedan also sat up from the recliner and was looking at Tao Xiaoyue.
"What do you want from me?"
"Uncle-in-law~"
When Tao Xiaoyue saw Wang Tiedan, her eyes lit up and she almost pounced on him.
Wang Tiedan quickly raised his hand to stop him.
"Don't call me that. We have no dealings with any of the Jia family's relatives, and we don't recognize them."
"I know. My mother-in-law told me yesterday."
Tao Xiaoyue pinched the corner of her clothes, feeling very nervous.
"If you know, why do you come to me?"
Wang Tiedan asked curiously.
The other party came alone, and he really couldn't guess his purpose.
Tao Xiaoyue wiped the sweat off her face and quickly told him about her current predicament.
"Uncle-in-law, this is what happened. Ever since I got married yesterday, I have been monitored by my mother-in-law and sister-in-law. Even when I go to the toilet, they follow me.
This morning, my mother-in-law and grandmother got angry without any explanation. They were completely different people from yesterday, which scared me.
I want to know what kind of people my mother-in-law and her family are like.
I don’t trust others, so I came here to ask you.”
When Hu Yulan and Qin Jingru heard that someone was asking about Jia's reputation, they rolled their eyes.
Wang Tiedan also became interested at this time.
"I don't have a good impression of their family. Is it inappropriate for you to ask me?"
"It's suitable, definitely suitable. You are a person of status, and I believe you will not lie to an ordinary person like me." Tao Xiaoyue replied hurriedly.
Hearing this, Wang Tiedan immediately frowned.
She starts by putting people on a pedestal, and there's even a hint of moral blackmail. This girl is not as innocent as she looks.
"Even if you know that the Jia family is not a good family, you have already married into the family, so how can you get a divorce?"
"I don't ask for a good in-law family, but I am also afraid that their reputation is too bad, so I want to give myself a chance to choose while there is still a chance."
"Have you been to school?" Wang Tiedan changed the subject.
"I did, but I didn't go back to school after primary school."
Wang Tiedan nodded, asked Qin Jingru for paper and pen, scribbled something, and handed it to Tao Xiaoyue.
“With my current status and the conflicts with the Jia family, if I tell others, it will be easy to be misunderstood.
Here are two of the nearest matchmakers, as well as the detailed location of the street office. You can find them according to the map. What they say may be more truthful.
Don’t use the identity of Jia’s daughter-in-law, just say that someone in the village is looking for a blind date.”
Having said that, he looked at Qin Jingru again.
"Jingru, give her some fruit candy. Find someone to chat with. Something to sweeten her mouth."
Qin Jingru agreed and quickly took out a bag of fruit candy.
Tao Xiaoyue wanted to refuse, but Qin Jingru directly stuffed it into her hand.
"It's okay, take it. We have many children in our family, so we don't need this stuff."
"Thank you, aunt and uncle."
"Yeah, let's go~"
Qin Jingru accompanied the man all the way to the outside of the courtyard, and only turned back after watching him walk away.
"The Jia family finally found a daughter-in-law, but now it seems they are running away~"
"Why bother with these things? It has nothing to do with our family anyway~"
Wang Tiedan thought about it and sat up.
"No~ I have to go see what's going on~"
Having said that, he walked out the door.
At this moment, Courtyard 95 was not just lively, it was extremely noisy.
Banggeng was awakened by the heat and found that his wife was not there. At first he didn't think there was anything wrong and thought she had gone to the bathroom.
But after waiting for a long time, no one came back, so he hurriedly got up.
Everyone knows what public toilets are like in the summer. Even if you want to take a dump, it’s impossible to use them for that long.
As a result, as soon as he walked out of the house, he saw Huaihua dozing off in the house and he immediately became anxious.
The two searched the yard and the alley, but saw no one.
If they hadn't seen the luggage still there, there would have been a huge fight.
However, even so, it was enough to make the Jia family anxious.
One is that he is afraid that Tao Xiaoyue will get lost, and the other is that he is afraid that others will talk nonsense.
When Wang Tiedan entered the yard, he saw that it was in chaos.
