After the miscarriage occurred, Yang Xiuying's stepmother took the opportunity to attack and forced the Wang family to pay a large sum of money. Yang Xiuying was opposed to this, but she couldn't make the decision at all. Wang Ping knew Yang Xiuying's difficulties and didn't say anything. He could only let his family pay the money.
Although the matter calmed down, the follow-up was very troublesome. Wang Ping's repeated troubles also made Wang Jianshe lose his patience. If Wang Ping is sent to a boarding school, his fate with Yang Xiuying will be over. This incident has already disgraced Yang Xiuying. If her boyfriend runs away again, it will really be a disaster.
Due to the interference of Zhang Yongsheng and others, Cheng Xi could not go to Starlight Nightclub with Yang Xiuying. After eating hot pot, Zhao Yunfei and Zhou Lanbing took Cheng Xi back to the agricultural machinery factory, and Zhang Yongsheng rode back to the freight station compound. At this time, Liang Aiping was researching stocks at home, and Zhang Yongsheng told Yang Xiuying.
Liang Aiping put down the pen in her hand, frowned and said, "This child is so troublesome that I don't even know what to do? Do you have any good suggestions?"
Zhang Yongsheng shook his head and said: "Where can I give you any advice? I have never been a father and have no experience. I just think that they can still be saved, so I try to help coordinate them. With Wang Ping's violent temper, how could he be honest before? It’s rare that he is so honest this time since he is under confinement at home.”
Liang Aiping said depressedly: "He has caused such a big trouble, how dare he be dishonest? If he continues to be dishonest, he will go in and eat the royal food. His father and I are not stupid people, but he gave birth to such a stupid son."
Zhang Yongsheng advised: "No matter how useless he is, he is still your son. You can't just ignore him."
Liang Aiping said a little aggrievedly: "How can I take care of it? You don't know his usual attitude towards me. What else can I do about this kind of thing besides paying some money?"
Zhang Yongsheng suggested: "Why don't you go talk to Yang Xiuying and see what she thinks? If you really want to beat the couple, Wang Ping will be even more resentful towards you in the future."
Liang Ai frowned and said: "We can talk, but I'm afraid that her stepmother will take advantage of her and make a big deal. It's not that I feel sorry for the money, it's mainly because I'm angry."
Zhang Yongsheng thought for a while and said: "This matter was resolved last time. If her stepmother makes trouble with this matter again, it can be treated as blackmail. The two of them are consensual. As long as Yang Xiuying can bite this, she will The stepmother can't help it. The key is their attitude, nothing else matters."
Liang Aiping thought for a while, nodded and said: "That's the truth, let me get in touch first. If they are really affectionate and righteous, it would be no problem if I paid to raise them. With a woman tethered, this child might be able to calm down a little. , stop causing trouble to me and his dad."
After a night of silence, Zhang Yongsheng took the time to go see Chen Li the next day. Chen Li sent him a complete set of exercise papers for No. 1 Middle School, which was very helpful for his summer study. He had taken the time to read it in the past two months and felt that he had benefited a lot, so he brought her some gifts back from Jiangyuan.
He went to Chen Li's house first, but there was no one in Chen Li's house. After asking his neighbors, he found out that Chen Li helped her father sell vegetables during the day. So Zhang Yongsheng rode his bicycle to the vegetable market on South Street. Chen Wei had a vegetable stall here, and Chen Li took time to help here during the summer vacation.
The vegetable market on South Street is the largest vegetable market in the city, where many people buy their daily groceries. After the freight station went bankrupt, Chen Wei lost his livelihood, so he used his severance pay to set up a stall here and make a living by buying vegetables. He gets up early every day to go to the countryside to collect vegetables, and then sells them in the vegetable market to earn a meager income.
Chen Li has to go to class on weekdays and has no time to help her father. She can only help as much as possible during holidays. On weekends, she would bring vegetables and set up a stall near the family area of the freight station. During the winter and summer vacations, she would have time to help at the vegetable market. She is the head of a poor family, and she can take charge of everything at home.
Because his daughter is too outstanding, Chen Wei can't speak at home, and Chen Li does whatever she says. Chen Wei is not worried at all about Chen Li getting into a good university. His only worry is that he won't be able to save enough money to pay for Chen Li's college expenses.
When Zhang Yongsheng arrived at the South Street Vegetable Market, it was just when the first wave of customers ended in the morning. There were not many people in the market, and the vegetable vendors took the opportunity to take a rest. Chen Li helped Chen Wei put the vegetables in the plastic frames on the stall, then sat on the pony behind and read quietly.
Chen Wei took the time to light up his cigarette and chatted with the owner of the vegetable stall next door. He looked up and saw Zhang Yongsheng walking in front of him and greeted him enthusiastically: "Yongsheng, why are you here to buy food? Are you going to cook by yourself?"
Zhang Yongsheng waved his hand and said with a smile: "Uncle Chen, please don't belittle me. How can I cook? I came to see Chen Li and brought her something."
Chen Wei also heard Lin Jingye talk about Zhang Yongsheng waiting for Chen Li in the noodle shop every day. He didn't care much about it, because it was useless to care. Chen Li was too opinionated. He couldn't make the decision at all, so he could only let Chen Li make her own decision. In his opinion, the children at the freight station are very good. Everyone knows the basics and will not suffer any disadvantages.
Chen Wei called to Chen Li's position. Chen Li raised her head, her face full of surprise: "Didn't you go to Jiangyuan? When did you come back?"
Zhang Yongsheng looked at Chen Wei and said with a smile: "I've been back for a while, and I went to my hometown to celebrate the Ghost Festival. I just returned to Yunshan. I picked out some gifts for you in Jiangyuan, please accept them."
As Zhang Yongsheng handed the brown paper handbag out, Chen Li stood across the vegetable stall and did not reach out to take it. She frowned and said, "What gift did you bring me? How are you doing with your summer homework? No one is watching you. Have you started working yet?"
"No, I've done more than half of it, and I've finished all the papers you gave me." Zhang Yongsheng explained while urging: "Hurry up and take it, my posture is very tiring."
Chen Li glanced at Chen Wei. Chen Wei reached out and took the brown paper handbag and handed it to Chen Li: "Yong Sheng bought it specially for you, so don't be pretentious. It's more than a hundred kilometers from Jiangyuan to Yunshan. The round trip fare alone is enough for us to sell vegetables for a day."
Zhang Yongsheng rubbed his palms and smiled coquettishly: "Uncle Chen, it's not that exaggerated. I just bought it by the way. I just don't know if Chen Li likes it. Chen Li usually takes good care of me and gives me a lot of study materials. This is money. You can’t buy it. I’ll give you a small gift in return, as a courtesy.”
Chen Wei nodded and said happily: "I'm very happy that Lili is willing to help you. She doesn't know anything, she only has some talent in reading and taking exams. I'm quite worried about going out into society in the future. If you can help me more, Help her, and as your uncle, I will accept your kindness."
Chen Li blushed slightly and said coquettishly: "Dad, what are you talking about? Stop talking nonsense and go find someone to chat and play chess. Don't cause trouble here."
"Oh, my daughter is so shy. It's really rare." Chen Wei chuckled and said, "Okay, I'll go check out the recent market conditions, and you two can chat slowly."
