Chapter 71: Burning the Tailor's Shop
But for some reason, Tailor Zhang has not had children since marriage. Originally, Caixia's mother was not in a hurry, she was a young lady, and she couldn't wait for someone to serve her, and she didn't have to get it by herself when she gave birth to a child. Later, it was because Zhang Caiyun's husband died, and she wrote a letter to ask Tailor Zhang to go to Suzhou to open a factory with her, so she was in a hurry. Although Tailor Zhang was reluctant to give up the tailor shop, he did not agree. But she still doesn't feel at ease, these two people were originally going to make a couple, but now they don't have a husband, don't want one day, just because she didn't have a child, Tailor Zhang didn't want her, and Zhang Caiyun got along again, so she agreed to adopt a child and try it.
Not long after Sister Zhang came over, Zhang Caiyun also sent her newborn son over. She didn't persuade Tailor Zhang to go to Suzhou this time, but just asked him to help take care of her son. Caixia's mother saw that Zhang Caiyun was obviously better looking than her, and she was even more uneasy, always suspicious.
Three years after Sister Zhang's adoption, she was really pregnant and gave birth to a beautiful Caifeng (in fact, it is a rainbow, in order to unify with the front, it is simply called Caifeng here}. Originally, this was a good thing that everyone was happy about, but she always felt that Tailor Zhang preferred Zhang Caiyun's son Zhang Lixin, so she became jealous and always had to find fault for a little thing. For example, she felt that Tailor Zhang named her daughter with the word "Cai", just to connect the name with Zhang Caiyun, and Tailor Zhang told her that it was because Sister Zhang (formerly known as Li Caifeng in her hometown) had the word "Cai" in her name, and on the day she was born, there was a rainbow in the sky, so he also used "Cai" for his own daughter; She also felt that Tailor Zhang had to adopt Sister Zhang at that time, because she thought of Zhang Caiyun from the name. Anyway, I like to wrap around the tips of various horns. She doesn't know how to take care of people, and she is busy around the tip of the horns, so Caifeng is basically led by Sister Zhang. After another five years, on the first night of her birth Caixia, she dreamed that Caixia was full of sky, and Tailor Zhang asked her to name her daughter this time, she felt that "Caixia" was very good, because the object of her suspicion now had been transferred from Zhang Caiyun to Sister Zhang.
At that time, Tailor Zhang's adoptive father was old, and he liked his nephew, so he no longer went to the store, and it was Sister Zhang who was helping Tailor Zhang. The family was originally not big, but with the birth of her younger sisters, it became even more crowded, so Sister Zhang simply lived in the store. Although the birthmark on her face is large, she is ingenious, and she often tinkers with some clothes to make samples, which are quite popular. Sometimes the business is busy, and Tailor Zhang comes back late in the evening. Caifeng's mother actually thought that she didn't give Tailor Zhang a son, Tailor Zhang didn't like her, she fell in love with Sister Zhang, and she would raid to check on the post if she had anything to do, and she had no intention of taking care of the two children, making the two children, especially Xiao Caixia, sick.
When Caixia was five years old, Tailor Zhang's adoptive father died of a violent illness, and Zhang Caiyun drove back to mourn and persuaded Tailor Zhang to go to Suzhou. Considering that there are two underage daughters at home, and his wife spends money lavishly (recently he has stomach pain and smokes), although his own tailor shop is better than other people's business, more and more people like to buy ready-made clothes, and the business in the store will only get worse and worse. So, Tailor Zhang agreed. Zhang Caiyun was very happy, with the help of Tailor Zhang, she decided to make the original bridal shop bigger, so she hurried to the village group below the town to recruit car workers and handicrafts.
Caixia's mother made a lot of noise when she found out, and she didn't agree. Tailor Zhang had no choice but to agree not to go. But seeing that Zhang Caiyun came back from the countryside at night and had already found two little girls, he felt embarrassed to open his mouth, so he went out to prepare to go to the store, and decided to let Sister Zhang go instead of him. Zhang Caiyun saw that he was going to Suzhou early the next morning, but Tailor Zhang didn't pack anything so late, and went out, thought about it, and followed.
Seeing that the two of them went out one after another, Caixia's mother hurriedly put down Caixia, who was having a high fever, and followed out. Tailor Zhang is a man and walks fast, Zhang Caiyun is a strong woman and walks fast, only Caixia's mother is physically blessed and walks slowly. She rushed to the door of the store out of breath, and heard Zhang Caiyun saying inside, "Then hurry up and pack up, and leave early tomorrow morning", she couldn't help but be angry, she made a lot of noise, looking for death and life for a long time, but she still couldn't beat this woman. She saw that the window of Sister Zhang's room was open behind her, so she took out a lighter, lit a cigarette and threw it in. Sister Zhang's room was full of fabrics, and it soon caught fire.
Caifeng, who was at home, touched her sister, felt more and more hot, and couldn't help but be anxious, so she hurried to the store: she didn't know where her parents had gone, but she knew that Sister Zhang must be in the store. As soon as she saw the fire in the back of the store, she screamed and fainted.
The people in the front store heard a shouting from behind, and only then did they know that there was a fire in the back, and they hurriedly put out the fire. But because it was all fabric, the fire was already very strong, and it was almost dawn that the fire was extinguished, but the whole tailor shop was already unrecognizable.
Caixia's mother originally just wanted to scare them, but she didn't expect that the entire tailor shop would burn like this, and she couldn't help but be so scared that she became insane. This tailor shop is handed down by the old tailor's father, the reason why Zhang Caiyun's husband died in a car accident at the beginning, did not go to Suzhou, is that he was reluctant to go to this shop, this time he promised to go to Suzhou, but also because this store has Sister Zhang can be entrusted, and later told Zhang Caiyun for this reason, he will not go to Suzhou, or let Sister Zhang go instead of him, Zhang Caiyun also agreed.
Zhang Caiyun said: "Since the tailor shop is gone, then you can go to Suzhou with my family, the van can sit down." "Tailor Zhang knows that Caixia's mother's heart is sick, and if she goes to Suzhou, it will only make things worse. He smiled bitterly and shook his head: "As originally planned, Sister Zhang will go with you." Caixia had a fever last night, and now she's home alone, so I don't know what's going on! ”
He took Caifeng, who had woken up but was still frightened, from Sister Zhang's hand, pulled his wife, who kept walking back and forth, and hurried home, Sister Zhang and Zhang Caiyun followed without thinking.
As soon as he saw Caixia who was convulsed, Tailor Zhang's legs went soft. Zhang Caiyun calmly took care of Sister Zhang to stay at home, took care of Caifeng and her mother, and asked Tailor Zhang to pick up Caixia and go to the town hospital with her, the town hospital said that she had to go to the city hospital immediately, Zhang Caiyun continued to drive over, and was diagnosed with meningitis and needed to be hospitalized.
Zhang Caiyun looked at the anxious Tailor Zhang, sighed, and took out almost all the money on his body: "I've been out of Suzhou for two days, and I can't stay any longer." You still have Caifeng and your wife to take care of at home...... Forget it, Sister Zhang won't go to Suzhou with me this time. When Caixia is discharged from the hospital, let Sister Zhang come to Suzhou Tiger Hill to find me. By the way, if your wife's condition is not improving, you should also bring her here to see, and if the money is not enough, just talk to me...... I'll go to Suzhou to find a good store again, and then contact you! ”
The tailor turned his face away.
As a result, that afternoon, Zhang Caiyun only took her son Zhang Lixin and two little girls she recruited from the countryside back to Suzhou.
