As soon as Zhang Binglin entered the door, he hurriedly rushed over, rescued Shuangning from Zhang Xiaoqin's hands, and protected Xiao Shuangning behind him.

If it was Wu Ju, he really didn't dare to do anything, but this Zhang Xiaoqin was his daughter after all, no matter how arrogant she was, she would never be disobedient and unfilial enough to fight with her own father!

"Daddy, you just protect her like this, there will always be a day when you regret it. Auntie, you don't care about Daddy, am I your own daughter, or is she Xiaoshuangning? ”

Zhang Binglin's toughness made Zhang Xiaoqin really a little surprised. Daddy, who is always stuffy like a gourd on weekdays, suddenly knew that she was reprimanding herself, and she was really caught off guard.

"The matter between us women, don't get involved in your man's family, do what you should do. Shuangning, hurry up and do something. ”

Wu Ju beckoned Xiao Shuangning to pass, and Xiao Shuangning got the instruction and moved towards the well.

Zhang Binglin grabbed Xiao Shuangning, snatched the dirty clothes from her hands, and threw them into the laundry tub.

"Ningning, let's go, go back to the house with grandpa."

How could Wu Ju let Zhang Binglin gain the upper hand in front of her, she threw the clothes in her hand into the basin and stood up angrily.

"Zhang Binglin, are you rebelling? When will it be your turn to call the shots in this home? If you're idle, go to the village chief's house to see if Shumei's letter has been sent back? ”

As soon as Zhang Binglin heard Wu Ju's letter, he couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart, stopped preparing to go to the house, and pinched a cold sweat in his hand.

His hands tugged at the pockets of his clothes, sweating profusely.

"I've seen it ———— and haven't sent it back yet."

"Yo hey! When did you care about these things, and on weekdays, weren't you indifferent to the affairs of your family? ”

Zhang Binglin's abnormal behavior made Wu Ju very puzzled.

"Oh———— I met the village chief at the entrance of the village and asked casually."

Zhang Binglin stammered, and pulled Xiao Shuangning to hurry into the house.

"Stop, are you deaf? Do you really think of yourself as the head of the family? You want to protect her, right, then I won't wash this clothes, you can wash them. ”

Wu Ju rushed into the house angrily.

Zhang Xiaoqin glanced at Zhang Binglin and Xiao Shuangning with disdain, shook the pu fan in her hand and walked towards the house.

Zhang Binglin squatted down and grabbed Xiao Shuangning's scarred hand.

"Ning Ning, you go and play, grandpa will wash these clothes first. Tomorrow, grandpa can take you to your mother. ”

When Zhang Binglin spoke, he deliberately glanced in the direction of the hall and made sure that Wu Ju and Zhang Xiaoqin had entered the house, so he lowered his voice and said to Xiao Shuangning.

"Really? Grandpa, is everything you say true? ”

Xiao Shuangning burst into tears and laughed, and asked excitedly.

"Shhhh Ning Ning whispered, this is the secret of the two of us, if your grandmother and aunt know, we won't be able to leave. ”

Xiao Shuangning bit her lower lip tightly and nodded vigorously.

Zhang Binglin squatted down to concentrate on washing clothes.

The sensible Xiao Shuangning couldn't bear to let Zhang Binglin work alone, so he took the initiative to squat down to help.

"Grandpa, Ning Ning is here to help you."

Zhang Binglin looked at such a well-behaved and sensible little Shuangning, and firmly believed that his decision was not wrong. Such a well-behaved and lovely child should be cared for and raised in every possible way, and raise a gentle and lovely little jasper, instead of being bullied like now, leaving the shadow of childhood, and living in fear like a frightened bird.

He had already succeeded in intercepting Shumei's letter from the village chief, and Shumei had sent eighty yuan this time, twenty yuan more than last time.

It's just that he hasn't figured out how to successfully slip away with Xiao Shuangning from under Wu Ju's nose.

Anyway, he knew that at this time, he would not be able to fall out with Wu Ju. must obey her and not let her have the slightest suspicion, otherwise it will be even more difficult to leave.

Summer clothes are thin, and the scorching sun is in the sky, and by the evening, the clothes that are dried at noon are already dry.

Zhang Binglin looked at the clothes on the clothes pole, and took the initiative to run to collect the clothes. While it was time to pack his clothes, he secretly packed up his clothes and took them to the guest room in the courtyard to hide them.

Although Shuangning was only five years old, Wu Ju didn't want her to disturb her sleep, so she threw her alone in the guest room in the courtyard to sleep alone.

At the beginning, Shuangning lay in bed and was so scared that she couldn't sleep all night, but after a long time, she got used to it and got used to being lonely.

On the contrary, she is very glad that she can have her own space, and she doesn't have to be wary of Wu Ju and Zhang Xiaoqin all the time. She is like a little adult, sensible earlier than children of the same age, and knows how to compromise to protect herself.

Zhang Binglin used to think that this was not a good thing, the child was only so old, so he left her alone in the yard, what if she fell under the bed, turned over the quilt late at night, or wetted the bed in the middle of the night or something?

So, from that day on, Zhang Binglin had more things to do every day, and he would always get up in the middle of the night to check on it, cover the quilt for Xiaoshuangning, and tell her to get up and pee.

Now it seems that this is simply a tiger with wings, he can take the opportunity to get up to see Xiao Shuangning, and sneak away with Xiao Shuangning.

That night, in the dead of night, Wu Ju and Zhang Xiaoqin were already asleep.

He got up from the bed lightly, woke up Xiao Shuangning, who was still asleep, and quietly slipped away from home with Xiao Shuangning on his back.

The night was dark and the wind was high, and they couldn't see their fingers, but fortunately, Zhang Binglin prepared a flashlight in advance, so they could move forward in the night. In this way, the grandparents and grandchildren embarked on the road to find Shumei.

After all, Zhang Binglin is also old, and he has a small double condensation, plus it is night. The two of them walked and stopped until the morning star rose in the east, and they didn't go far.

The next day, when Wu Ju found that Zhang Binglin and Xiao Shuangning were gone, she didn't care too much at first, thinking that Zhang Binglin just took Xiao Shuangning out for a walk.

It wasn't until she didn't see any sign of the two of them that she realized something was wrong.

She and Zhang Xiaoqin began to look around the village, asking people when they saw them.

"Wu Ju, you are flustered, is something wrong?"

The village chief came back from outside, looked at Wu Ju who was anxious, and couldn't help but ask.

Wu Ju hunched her waist, so tired that she couldn't breathe, she wiped the sweat on her forehead with her hands, and at the same time went to the village chief.

"O village chief! Have you seen my old man and my granddaughter? ”

"Don't say it, you can see him wandering around the village on weekdays, but I really haven't seen him today."

"Oops! Where did this old immortal die? Nothing will happen, right? ”

Although Wu Ju and Zhang Binglin usually don't deal with each other, after all, they have been together for decades, and they still have feelings more or less. This Zhang Binglin disappeared all of a sudden, and Wu Ju was still worried about Zhang Binglin's safety.

She was so anxious that she beat her chest, and her worry was written on her face.

"Wu Ju, has something happened to your family recently?"

"Something?" Wu Ju meditated for a moment, and returned puzzled, "No, the family has been going smoothly recently!" ”

The village chief thought about it, thought for a moment, and told Wu Ju all about Zhang Binglin's recent abnormalities.

"That's weird, I thought your family was short of money lately! This Binglin, I have come to my house several times in the past few days, and I asked if your letter from Shumei had arrived. ”

"How can such a thing happen?"

"Yes! Yesterday when he got the letter from your daughter-in-law, he was so happy that he almost jumped up. ”

"What? Sook-mei's letter has already been sent? ”

Wu Ju was even more confused, Zhang Binglin, who usually didn't care about these trivial matters, suddenly didn't say anything, he actually got the living expenses sent back by Shumei, and he deliberately hid it from himself, she couldn't understand it.

She looked depressed, and she had no intention of dealing with the village chief anymore, and she was talking nonsense to herself.

In this way, he and the girl have been premeditated for a long time, isn't it ———— what kind of medicine is he selling in this gourd? They ———— they won't ———— bad, this damn girl, maybe they took the dead girl to find Shumei.

Thinking of this, she ignored the village chief's questions and ran home.

The village chief shouted twice, and when he saw that Wu Ju didn't care about him, he had to shake his head helplessly, and walked towards his house with a hoe.

Wu Ju returned home, hurriedly went to the closet to check, and saw that Zhang Binglin's change of clothes was gone, and she was so angry that she was like thunder. She threw the clothes in the closet all over the floor, and the whole room was messed up by her, as if she had just been a thief.

"The old immortal dares to carry me behind my back, why is my life so bitter? I found such a wreck, and I haven't been hard for most of my life, but I didn't expect that the only assertiveness, the only hard breath, was actually used on me. ”

Wu Ju sat on the head of the bed, beating his chest and muttering to himself.

She was used to drinking to Zhang Binglin, and suddenly there was one less person in this room, she was really not used to it, and she felt empty inexplicably.

When night fell, Zhang Xiaoqin returned home, saw Wu Ju's appearance, saw the house in a mess, and asked puzzledly.

"Auntie, what's wrong? Is there a burglar in the house? Zhang Xiaoqin said as she walked towards the head of the bed. Auntie, what's wrong with you? How did you hang your head? ”

Wu Ju came back to her senses and eagerly grabbed Zhang Xiaoqin's hand, "Xiaoqin, your father ran away from home with Shuangning, and he actually didn't care about my life or death for that little, and he didn't even want our family, which we have worked so hard to run for decades." ”

"What? Did they run away from home? Will that Kang Shumei send her living expenses back in the future? ”

When Zhang Xiaoqin heard this, the first thing that came to mind was that the "cash cow" had been taken away, whether she would be able to receive living expenses in the future, and whether she would have any food and drink.

"I don't know if there will be any in the future, but this time it will definitely not be there, and it was taken away by your father."

"What? Daddy too, such a big person, why do you still play this child's trick, he took away all the living expenses, what should we do? Isn't that putting us to death? ”

Zhang Xiaoqin was even more angry than Wu Ju, and began to get angry about her eating and drinking, and kept complaining.
