Chapter 45 Silence
Li Wu nodded, agreeing with Wang Qingyou's opinion, but still reminded her, "Now that we have settled down, it's not as good as when we were fleeing. You should be more restrained."

"I know it well."

Wang Qingyou returned home and found the door locked, which made her heart skip a beat.

"Your mother usually doesn't run around. Maybe something happened to her. Don't worry." Li Wu comforted her.

"I'll go look for it." Wang Qingyou said.

When she returned, she happened to meet Zhou Pinghao who was helping his mother back.

When Zhou Pinghao saw her, he was like a mouse seeing a cat. He quickly stepped aside, and Mrs. Qian no longer had that mean look on her face.

Wang Guihua came over with her child on her back and a basket of vegetables in her hand. "What's wrong with you?"

She saw Mrs. Qian, who was all wet, and asked with concern.

If Wang Qingyou hadn't been next to her, Mrs. Qian would have thought she was deliberately looking for trouble and wanted to curse.

But Wang Qingyou was there. Thinking about what had just happened, she felt scared and she was almost drowned there.

Mrs. Qian didn't say anything.

Wang Guihua didn't continue to make herself look bad, and walked up to Wang Qingyou, "Didn't you go to see the house being built? Why are you back so soon?"

Wang Qingyou paused, "Weren't you at home just now?"

Wang Guihua picked up her basket and said, "I'm going to buy some vegetables. I'll make you something delicious later."

Since she has money in her pocket, she will naturally not treat her daughter badly.

Wang Qingyou was silent. She was so impulsive today because she felt that Mrs. Qian had bullied her mother so badly that she didn't even dare to show her face, and yet, the woman was not at home at all.

Mrs. Qian also heard what Wang Guihua said. She staggered and almost fell, but fortunately she was supported by Zhou Pinghao.

Li Wu looked up at the sky. Sometimes people's luck is so magical. He could only say that Mrs. Qian was destined to have a disaster.

"Why aren't you talking?" Wang Guihua felt that everyone was too silent.

"I'm wondering what delicious food my mother will prepare for me." Since Wang Guihua didn't hear the dirty words, Wang Qingyou didn't plan to tell her.

Speaking of this, Wang Guihua opened her basket and said, "You like hotpot, don't you? I bought some bones to make soup, and some meat and vegetables as well. Let's eat hotpot."

Wang Qingyou nodded, "Mom, you are so kind."

After returning home, Wang Guihua started to prepare meals, while Li Wu went to watch the people building the house.

Only Wang Qingyou and Wang Yuxiao were left in the yard.

The child crawled to Wang Qingyou, pulled her legs and slowly stood up, but he didn't stand firmly and fell on his butt. He was dazed and looked at Wang Qingyou with wide eyes.

Wang Qingyou laughed unceremoniously. This little rascal was really funny.

Seeing that she did not come to support him and had no intention of comforting him, Wang Yuxiao opened her little mouth and started crying loudly.

Wang Guihua came out with a spatula, and seeing their expressions, she said, "She will stop crying when she is tired. Just make sure she doesn't eat her snot."

Wang Qingyou thought she would be scolded, but she was happy that she was not scolded.

Wang Yuxiao really stopped crying after a while, and then started playing with her snot bubbles. She blew one and touched it with her hand, and then put it directly into her mouth. Now it was Wang Qingyou's turn to widen her eyes. How could this child be so dirty that he put his snot into his mouth? She held Wang Yuxiao's hand with disgust and went to find a handkerchief to wipe it for her.

Wang Yuxiao started crying again because she couldn’t eat her favorite snacks.

Wang Qingyou was overwhelmed. Why was it so difficult to take care of a child? Normally, she never cried when Wang Guihua took care of her, but how come she cried twice when she was just cooking a meal?

If only there was a camera, Wang Qingyou couldn’t help but think.

If she had this thing, she would definitely take a picture of Wang Yuxiao now, and show it to her when she grew up, became sensible, and loved cleanliness.

Wang Guihua was not panicked when she heard the voice. It was normal that she, the eldest daughter, had never taken care of a child and it was not good enough for her to do so.

After finishing the work in her hands, she went out and saw Wang Yuxiao hugging Wang Qingyou's legs and laughing so hard that his nose was covered with snot bubbles. Wang Qingyou stood aside with a gloomy face.

The little girl wiped her face with the corner of her skirt, but she didn't wipe it clean and her face was covered with snot.

The eldest daughter's face turned even darker.

Wang Guihua quickly carried Wang Yuxiao up and said, "Children don't care about this. I'll take her to wash up. You'er, you should change your clothes too."

Wang Qingyou returned to the room with a look of disgust on her face. She opened the closet and found a lot of new clothes in it, in all kinds of colors. They were all sewn by Wang Guihua stitch by stitch.

She picked up something at random and it fit her perfectly.

It's her own size.

By the time she changed her clothes, Wang Yuxiao had looked brand new, with a clean little face and new clothes.

Wang Guihua took Wang Qingyou's dirty clothes back and planned to take them out to wash later.

There was a knock on the door. Wang Qingyou went to open it. It was Zhou Pinghao. He was holding a chicken in his hand, and it seemed to be the same one from yesterday.

"What are you doing here?" Wang Qingyou asked. The two of them had already fallen out, and yet he actually came here with a chicken.

Zhou Pinghao handed the chicken to her and said, "We were wrong in the past and did some wrong things. Please don't hold it against us. Consider this chicken as our apology."

Wang Qingyou looked at him suspiciously. Is this guy mentally ill? She had just hit his mother, and she even asked him what she would do if they went to the village chief to complain. Why did she send her a chicken?

Could it be that he poisoned the chicken and wanted to kill himself?

Perhaps it was because Wang Qingyou's questioning look was too obvious, Zhou Pinghao understood what she meant.

"Don't worry, this chicken is not poisoned. In fact, I have something to ask of you."

"Let's talk about the situation first." Otherwise, how would she know whether she should collect the chicken or not.

"I want to help your family build a house. Can you let me go?"

After this incident, Zhou Pinghao has grown up. He grew up with his mother and learned his mother's temper. But now he realizes that this seems to be wrong. If he meets a ruthless person like Wang Qingyou, he will have no ability to resist. How will he support himself and his mother in the future? The two of them can't always rely on subsidies from others. When the old people pass away, who will take care of him? He must change himself and make some money to let his mother live a good life.

But it is so difficult to find a job now. The only hope I can see is in Wang Qingyou.

He even gave away the only chicken in the house.

Wang Qingyou rejected him, "Haven't you heard that a gentleman's word is as good as his bond? Now that I've said it, I won't change it, otherwise my reputation will be ruined in the future."
