Chapter 1 1. Sister-in-law and Niece
"dad."
Du Chuan was still in a daze when a clear child's voice brought him back to reality. He then realized that he had returned from his workplace to the entrance of the alley near his home and was about to reach home.
Looking in the direction where the voice came from, he saw a simply dressed woman with a little girl of three or four years old looking at him.
The clear and crisp voice came from the little girl. Du Chuan didn't care about it at first, but soon the little girl called out again, "Dad, Dad."
Now Du Chuan couldn't remain calm because he found that the little girl seemed to be shouting at him and running towards him.
There was no one else around him. The little girl shouted "Dad" in his direction, and there was no one else except him.
"Little boy, you've got the wrong people, right?" Du Chuan looked at the little girl jogging towards them holding the woman's hand, looking very excited, and said subconsciously that he didn't know these two people.
Only then did he take a serious look at the pair who looked like mother and daughter. They were all dirty, with dust on their faces and hands, and their hair was messy. There were many patches on their clothes, and it was obvious that they had been wearing them for many years. The little girl's clothes seemed much bigger and obviously didn't fit her. She looked like a homeless person.
Before the little girl could speak, the woman next to her spoke up with a local accent, "Little brother, Tingting recognized the wrong person."
The little girl looked at the woman in confusion, "Mom, this is Dad."
Before Du Chuan could say anything, the woman said, "He's not the father."
Then he said to Du Chuan: "Little brother, we are here to look for Du Yuan. Does he live here?"
Du Chuan was stunned. Du Yuan? Isn't this his eldest brother's name?
"Who are you...?" Du Chuan didn't answer her, but asked back.
The woman seemed to understand something. After all, Du Chuan and Du Yuan did look a bit alike, so she seemed a little nervous. "I'm Du Yuan's wife. I came here to look for him."
In fact, Du Chuan had some guesses in his mind when the woman said Du Yuan's name.
Hearing this, he immediately said, "Hello, my name is Du Chuan, and my brother is Du Yuan, but I don't know if he is the Du Yuan you are looking for."
After explaining the situation briefly, Du Chuan asked, "By the way, what are your names?"
When the woman heard Du Chuan say her name and that he had an older brother named Du Yuan, she seemed relieved.
They look somewhat similar and have similar names, so it seems I've come to the right place.
Hearing Du Chuan's question, the woman quickly said, "My name is Jiao Lanhua, and her name is Du Shangting, Tingting, call me uncle."
The little girl was not shy at all and called out crisply, "Uncle."
Du Chuan hesitated, not knowing whether he should agree or not. He had never heard his elder brother mention that he had a wife and children.
But looking at Jiao Lanhua's expression, it doesn't seem like she is lying.
"Come home with me first and confirm the relationship first." Du Chuan said after a moment of hesitation.
If this is true, then their family will be in a state of chaos. The eldest brother has been back in the city for more than half a year, but he has never mentioned the fact that he is married and has a daughter.
However, considering the situation at that time, it seems understandable that a large number of educated youth returned to the city and left behind countless troubles.
When they entered the compound with Jiao Lanhua, many people saw them. There was a curious old lady who asked about the situation, but Du Chuan fooled them all.
Their family lives in a large courtyard with three rooms. At this time, my mother is already preparing dinner. Smoke is rising from everywhere in the courtyard, and waves of the aroma of food are sweeping in.
When the little girl smelled the fragrance, she subconsciously began to swallow her saliva. Not only her, but Jiao Lanhua did the same. It seemed that she was already starving.
"Mom, where is my brother?" Du Chuan brought the mother and daughter to his mother's side and asked.
Du's mother didn't even turn her head. "She's still out there looking for work. She hasn't come back yet. What's wrong?"
"Ahem, Mom, come here for a moment. I have something to tell you." Du Chuan didn't know how to start. Besides, they were in the yard now. Many people were cooking in the yard. It was not a place to talk.
Only then did Du's mother turn around and look at Du Chuan, and discovered Jiao Lanhua and her daughter.
When Jiao Lanhua came to the yard, she seemed more and more nervous. She kept fixing her hair, as if she wanted to make herself look more serious.
But given her current situation, it can almost be said that things are getting worse and worse, and now it seems more like she is fleeing.
"Who are they?" Du's mother looked at her son as if he had brought back two beggars, and was puzzled. Was her son being kind?
"Mom, let's go inside and talk." Du Chuan pulled his mother into the house and at the same time called Jiao Lanhua and her daughter over.
After entering the house, Du Chuan explained the situation in the simplest terms, "They said it was my eldest brother's wife and child."
"Huh?" Du's mother was instantly shocked and full of question marks.
"Miss, are you mistaken? My eldest son is not married yet?" Du's mother said to Jiao Lanhua.
Jiao Lanhua immediately said nervously: "My husband's name is Du Yuan. He came to our place five years ago as an educated youth. I married him four years ago."
"Where are you from?" Du's mother became a little nervous when she heard this. This matched the time when her eldest son went to the countryside, and the accent also matched the place.
Jiao Lanhua immediately gave an address, and then Du's mother fell silent, because this was indeed the place where her eldest son Du Yuan went to the countryside as an educated youth.
Du's mother was silent. Jiao Lanhua seemed more and more nervous. She pulled the little girl's hand even harder, making the little girl grimace in pain, but she was sensible enough not to cry out in pain.
Du Chuan saw that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so he could only say, "Well, we'll know when Big Brother comes back. Calculating the time, it should be about time."
Upon hearing this, Du's mother immediately said, "Yes, yes, yes, young lady, wait for Du Yuan to come back. You haven't eaten yet, I guess. I'll go cook first."
After saying that, she went outside to continue cooking, but looking at her expression, it seemed that she was not in the mood to cook.
"I'll help you." Jiao Lanhua rolled up her sleeves and was about to help, but was stopped by Du's mother.
Just as they were pulling, a voice came from the yard, "Dayuan is back. How was your day? Did you find a job?"
"Dayuan, it seems like there are guests at your house."
Hearing the noise, Du Chuan and others went out, and then saw a tall young man walking in from outside. It was Du Yuan. The two brothers were both quite tall, Du Yuan was 1.8 meters tall, and Du Chuan was 1.83 meters tall, which was very tall in that era.
Du Yuan's face didn't look very good at this moment, and it was obvious that there would be no good results today.
"Dad." The little girl's voice seemed to always be so clear and loud.
Du Yuan was originally upset because he had not found a job yet, and because of all the words in the yard that seemed like concern but were more like ridicule.
But when he heard the familiar voice and saw the two dirty figures, his heart trembled instantly.
"Tingting?" Du Yuan's voice sounded a little unreal.
When Du Chuan heard his eldest brother give the name of his youngest daughter, he knew that it was correct. These two people were indeed his sister-in-law and niece.
Du's mother understood instantly, and her eyes changed when she looked at the little girl, because if this was Du Yuan's daughter, then she would be the first child of the third generation of their family.
However, when some people around began to gather around and ask curiously, Du's mother decisively asked everyone to go back to the house to talk.
As a member of the gossip group in the yard, she knew very well what these people were thinking. They were all here to laugh at her.
