After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback! Chapter 107 - Returning to the Village
Early the next morning, Qiao Gui and Wang Qin went to the brigade to look for Zhao Liang, afraid that Qiao i would bring people around to cause trouble again. If that happened, Wang Qin wondered where she could hide her face. She did not want Qiao i to go looking for her superiors to say that she had occupied soone else’s house and in turn caused her to lose her job.
After paying 150 dollars and getting the original agreent, Wang Qin finally felt relieved. Zhao Liang quickly took the 150 dollars and went to Qiao i’s house. On the way, he could sll the fragrance of food from afar.?It would appear that it was not a lie to say that Qiao i was capable.
“Brother Qiao! Brother Qiao, are you there!” Zhao Liang shouted from the door.
Qiao i hurriedly ca out when she heard the sound. “Uncle Zhao, why are you here so early! My grandfather went out to pick vegetables.”
Zhao Liang took out the money from his pocket and handed it to Qiao i. “This is the money that Wang Qin’s family ca to pay this morning. I ca by to give it to you. Take a look.”
Qiao i walked over and put the money in her pocket without looking at it. She said smilingly, “Uncle Zhao, of course I trust you. Uncle Zhao, I just made stead pumpkin, how about having so! Co in and eat. My grandfather will be back soon.”
Zhao Liang waved his hand and was about to leave when Qiao i suddenly said, “Uncle Zhao, does our village still have any hostead, as I want to get one for my mother.”
Zhao Liang thought for a mont and looked at the surrounding houses. He pointed in the southeast direction and said, “Look at that area. It’s not very big, but it’s quite close to your house. Otherwise, the area next to your Auntie Wang’s house is still empty, or the area close to Qiao Zhuang’s place. You can decide which area you like and just co to the brigade to let us know.”
Qiao i looked in the direction that Zhao Liang was pointing at and thought that it was not too bad, except that there was only one and a half mu of private land. Still, she thought that she should not ask for too much. Now that she was a prominent person in the village, people would talk about it if she asked for more private land. Besides, her mother would not have the energy to manage so much land, and having more land also ant that the Zhang family could demand for more later.
“Yes, alright! Uncle Zhao, I’ll go and look for you after I eat with my grandfather! Take care, Uncle Zhao!” Qiao i did not force Zhao Liang to stay. After sending him off, she went into the house to get the dishes ready and waited for Qiao Qiang to co back to eat.
At the dining table, Qiao Qiang could tell that Qiao i had sothing on her mind, but he did not say anything as he knew this child well. The previous Qiao i was impulsive and willful and he was always worried that she would get bullied outside. Given that she was all grown up now, he need not worry too much.
“Grandfather, do you think it is alright if the hostead for my mother is located next to Auntie Dong’s house?” Qiao i looked at Qiao Qiang with her big bright eyes.
Qiao Qiang smiled. “Sure, as long as you think it’s alright. Grandfather trusts you.”
......
“Right! I’ll talk to Uncle Zhao about this later.” Qiao i started to eat faster to quickly finish the food in her bowl.
“Hey! Slow down, slow down! You’re going to be a mother soon, yet you’re still so rash. It’s not good for your child if you’re like this!” Qiao Qiang hurriedly stopped Qiao i.
Qiao i put down the bowl in her hand and smiled foolishly. She had almost forgotten that she was the mother of two children. She touched her slightly protruding stomach and put down the bowl and chopsticks.
“I know, I know. I was so anxious that I forgot.” Qiao i looked at the ti and said, “Grandfather, I’m off to the brigade.”
Qiao i went to the brigade to choose the location of the hostead and exchanged her work points for so wood. Then, she asked Uncle Zhao to help her find out where she could find soone who sold mud bricks from ho. Although people were not allowed to buy and sell items in private during this period in ti, it was fine to carry out it secretly and nobody would talk about it.
She then went ho and got on her bicycle to go to the train station to pick up Li Gui. After all, that was still her mother. Although Li Gui was not by her side to take care of her when she was young, she still looked forward to having her mother around.
When Qiao i reached the train station, it was still much earlier than the scheduled arrival ti. The month of June in the northeast of the country was not as hot as sumr in the south, and it did not feel stuffy while she waited at the train station. Looking at the clouds in the sky, Qiao i felt much more relaxed. A train slowly stopped in front of Qiao i and as there were not many people getting off at the mountain village, Qiao i saw her mother at one glance.
“Mom! Here!” Qiao i waved her hands and looked at Li Gui. She also noticed the two little girls beside Li Gui.
