Zhang Yunxiu frowned, relieved of what he was doing, and after thinking about it, he felt that Director Zhao was indeed too enthusiastic about himself.

She glanced at her daughter, who was very happy to play in the house, and suddenly said, "Zhuzhu, you are obedient at home, your mother will go out and come back soon, do you know?" ”

Zhu Zhu raised her little head and blinked her eyes, "Okay." ”

took the towel behind the door and wiped his hands, Zhang Yunxiu didn't forget to close the door when he went out.

Hurriedly going downstairs, she went to the streets west of the city according to the place Wei Peilan said.

The family conditions of the people in this area of Chengxi Street are very good, and the environment is also very good.

There is a large compound on the west street of the city, and the widow who has no man that Wei Peilan said lives here.

Zhang Yunxiu just casually found a dirty child who was playing outside, and asked about the widow clearly.

This widow's name is Lu Qiao, her man is indeed a soldier, he died on the battlefield three years ago, it is said that Lu Qiao did not come to live here at that time, and when he came with three children, he looked miserable.

When Director Zhao came home from work, he bumped into this mother, and after knowing that she was the widow of a martyr, he helped find her a house in a large compound to live in temporarily, and lived there for two or three years.

The child doesn't know much about Lu Qiao, but he only knows that this aunt is a person who picks up rags and sells them to the scrap yard, and usually any household will give her something that is not useful, and she has been living a miserable life.

gave the child a candy and sent it away, and Zhang Yunxiu entered the courtyard.

The courtyard is also the kind of house built of blue bricks and tiles, and the yard inside is very large and lively, but there are many people coming in and out, and there are many children playing in the mud at the door.

There are a lot of clothes and sheets drying in the yard, and you can hear the crying of milk dolls.

Lu Qiao lived in the smallest house in the north of the courtyard, and as soon as Zhang Yunxiu walked over there, he saw the particularly conspicuous waste pile that the child said, but it was very clean and tidy, so it was not as smelly as the people outside said.

There was a woman in a white shirt with several patches washing clothes with a basin, her hair was half gray, and she looked much older than her peers.

Someone in the courtyard noticed her face, and a woman wearing an apron and wiping her hands came over, saw her and asked with a smile, "Comrade, are you looking for someone here?"

"Yes. Zhang Yunxiu smiled, "But I've found it." ”

"Oh, that's it, then I'll get busy first. The woman probably came over to ask, glanced at Lu Qiao, who was washing clothes, and left without saying anything.

Zhang Yunxiu walked in front of Lu Qiao at this time.

Lu Qiao is washing clothes, this year the widow with the child is very difficult to live, especially like her who has no job, if it weren't for her man's comrades-in-arms to help her mother leave the household registration here, there is a minimum ration every month, she can also pick up waste and do odd jobs for some money, I am afraid that this life will be more difficult.

Suddenly, the sun in front of him was obscured.

Lu Qiao subconsciously looked up and saw a young girl standing in front of him.

She was stunned and wiped the water on her body, "Comrade, you ...... Looking for me?"

"Well, I've heard of you from a neighbor. Zhang Yunxiu squatted in front of her and said with a smile: "You are Lu Qiao, right?"

"Yes, yes. Lu Qiao blinked, not understanding her intention.

Zhang Yunxiu pursed her lips, "Do you know Bai Ting?"

"Deputy Head Bai?" Lu Qiao nodded, "Yes, I can live here with a few children, or can Deputy Head Bai help, what's wrong, comrade, do you know him too?"

"Well, he's my man. Zhang Yunxiu smiled, "Now that I have moved to Jinglou, I have heard my family mention you before, so I came over to take a look." ”

"Oh, it turned out to be Deputy Head Bai's daughter-in-law!That's the sister-in-law!" Lu Qiao looked surprised, obviously not knowing that Bai Ting had died in battle, she grabbed Zhang Yunxiu's arm excitedly and said: "In the past few years, Deputy Head Bai has helped our mother too much, I have always wanted to repay him, but I can't find out where he lives." Sister-in-law, it's great that you can move here, I'm familiar with this side, if you need help in the future, just tell me!"

"Yes, I will. Zhang Yunxiu looked at Lu Qiao.

In fact, in her previous life, she also knew that there was such a person.

After marrying Bai Ting, the two were together for less than three days, and the man was urgently recalled by the army.

When the man came back, Zhuzhu had been born for three months, and he had asked for hundreds of yuan from Mrs. Bai and left in a hurry, and the two didn't even have time to say a word.

It was only later that she learned from the old lady's scolding mouth that the money Bai Ting asked for was for the widow of a comrade-in-arms.

That comrade-in-arms was seriously injured and died in order to cover him.

Bai Ting also wrote to her about it, but Zhang Yunxiu didn't feel anything about him taking money, but the old lady made a fuss for a long time and scolded his comrade-in-arms for the whole family to die, but Bai Ting's face turned cold, and the old lady was so frightened that she hurriedly took out the money.

Later, Zhang Yunxiu also asked people to help Bai Ting send a few things to Lu Qiaoniang, and then Bai Ting's people were gone, and their mother herself could not be protected, so they naturally forgot about Lu Qiao.

If it weren't for the fact that the child felt that the name Lu Qiao was very familiar when he was a child, Zhang Yunxiu really couldn't remember it.

It's just that...... Why are Lu Qiaoniang here?

"I remember, you live in Hongqi Township......, right?

Zhang Yunxiu looked at her embarrassed appearance with puzzled eyes.

"After my man died, my mother-in-law's side disliked our mothers for not eating and working, so they kicked us out. Lu Qiao smiled, although she came out alone with her three children to beg for a living, but she didn't complain at all, but smiled happily, "I shouldn't say it, I'm more relaxed when I move out of that house, otherwise it will be uncomfortable to be tossed by my mother-in-law every day." ”

Zhang Yunxiu didn't expect that this person's experience was similar to his own, no, according to Wei Peilan's words, Lu Qiao was much more miserable than her.

At least after she left her in-law's house, she still had her parents, brothers and sisters-in-law to rely on, but Lu Qiao's mother's family was long gone.

"By the way, when Deputy Head Bai comes back, sister-in-law, you two will come to me for a meal, if it weren't for you, our mothers really don't know how to survive in the past three years. Lu Qiao said with a smile.

Zhang Yunxiu's face darkened, "There may be no way...... More than a month ago, I was just like you. ”

Lu Qiao didn't react for a while when she heard her words, and her smile gradually disappeared.
