"Chen Shuying, you and Xiao Liang have no place to stay now. How about I ask my husband and the village chief to help introduce someone for you?" an aunt said. 0
"No... it's fine, I don't want to marry again," Chen Shuying refused. 0
"But how will you manage as a woman with a child?" the aunt asked with concern. 0
"I... I can farm," Chen Shuying replied. 0
"Sigh, Chen Shuying, you have it so hard," the aunt said sympathetically. 0
"I'm okay, I will be strong," Chen Shuying said, wiping away her tears resolutely. 0
"Chen Shuying, if you have any difficulties, feel free to come to us." 0
"Yes, Chen Shuying, we are all fellow villagers and should help each other." 0
"Chen Shuying, it's really not easy for you to take care of Xiao Liang alone; why not find someone else?" 0
"..." 0
The surrounding fellow villagers began to speak up. 0
"Thank you all, thank you all," Chen Shuying said tearfully. 0
"Alright, everyone stop talking and let's quickly find an empty room for Chen Shuying," the village chief instructed. 0
"Okay, village chief," the villagers responded and began to busy themselves. 0
"Chen Shuying, why don't you rest at my house for a while?" Zhang Xiaoxiao suggested. 0
" Xiaoxiao, thank you," Chen Shuying expressed her gratitude. 0
"No need to thank me, let's go," Zhang Xiaoxiao said. 0
"Mm." Chen Shuying nodded and followed behind Zhang Xiaoxiao and Zhao Guangcai while holding Xiao Liang's hand. 0
Chen Shuying kept her head down as she walked silently, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably. 0
Seeing this, Zhang Xiaoxiao couldn't help but sigh and said, "Chen Shuying, don't be too sad; things will get better in the future." 0
"Mm, I know," Chen Shuying nodded without saying much more. 0
Noticing that Chen Shuying didn't want to talk further, Zhang Xiaoxiao didn't press her and led her back home. 0
As soon as Chen Shuying entered the yard and saw the flowers and plants growing there, she couldn't help but envy, " Xiaoxiao, your home is really beautiful." 0
"Hehe, it's all thanks to Zhao Guangcai," Zhang Xiaoxiao laughed. 0
"Brother Zhao really loves you," Chen Shuying remarked. 0
"Yes, he treats me very well," Zhang Xiaoxiao said sweetly. 0
"That's great," Chen Shuying said enviously. 0
 
 
"You will find someone good for you too," Zhang Xiaoxiao comforted. 0
 
"I won't look anymore," Chen Shuying shook her head. 0
 
"Why? You're still so young," Zhang Xiaoxiao said in surprise. 0
 
"I think being alone is pretty good," Chen Shuying replied. 0
 
"But it's too hard for you to take care of Xiao Liang by yourself," Zhang Xiaoxiao said. 0
 
"It's okay, I can endure hardship," Chen Shuying stated. 0
 
"Chen Shuying, if you want to find someone, I can ask Zhao Guangcai to introduce someone to you," Zhang Xiaoxiao offered. 0
 
"No need, Xiaoxiao, thank you," Chen Shuying replied. 0
 
"You're welcome," Zhang Xiaoxiao said. 0
 
" Xiaoxiao, Brother Zhao, thank you both," Chen Shuying expressed her gratitude. 0
 
"You're welcome," Zhang Xiaoxiao replied. 0
 
" Xiaoxiao, Brother Zhao, can I stay here for a few days?" Chen Shuying hesitated. 0
 
"Sure, stay as long as you want," Zhang Xiaoxiao said readily. 0
 
" Xiaoxiao, thank you. I really don't know how to repay you," Chen Shuying said emotionally. 0
 
"Chen Shuying, there's no need to be polite; we're all women," Zhang Xiaoxiao reassured her. 0
 
"Mm." Chen Shuying nodded in gratitude and didn't say anything more. 0
 
After a while, the village chief walked in and said, "Chen Shuying, we've found an empty house for you. Do you want to go see it now?" 0
 
"Okay, village chief, I'll go right away," Chen Shuying quickly stood up. 0
 
" Xiaoxiao, Zhao Guangcai, thank you both," Chen Shuying said again. 0
 
"You're welcome, Chen Shuying. Go ahead and take care of your business," Zhang Xiaoxiao replied. 0
 
"Mm." Chen Shuying nodded and left with Xiao Liang. 0
 
"Zhao Guangcai, let's head back too," Zhang Xiaoxiao suggested. 0
 
"Alright." Zhao Guangcai nodded and went home with Zhang Xiaoxiao. 0
 
In the evening, while Zhao Guangcai was taking a shower, Zhang Xiaoxiao sat on the bed thinking about what had happened that day. 0
 
Chen Shuying was really pitiful, but thankfully she had finally escaped from her suffering. 0
 
Thinking of this made Zhang Xiaoxiao let out a sigh of relief. 0
 
As she was lost in thought, she suddenly felt a burning gaze on her. 0
 
Zhang Xiaoxiao snapped back to reality and turned to Zhao Guangcai with a smile. "Zhao Guangcai, are you done showering?" 0
 
"Mm." Zhao Guangcai responded lightly and sat down at the edge of the bed. 0
 
 
"Zhao Guangcai, what do you think will happen to Chen Shuying in the future?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked. 0
"I don't know," Zhao Guangcai shook his head. 0
"Sigh, Chen Shuying is really too pitiful," Zhang Xiaoxiao sighed. 0
"Everyone's fate is different," Zhao Guangcai said. 0
"Yeah," Zhang Xiaoxiao agreed. 0
"It's getting late, let's go to bed early," Zhao Guangcai suggested. 0
"Mm," Zhang Xiaoxiao nodded and lay down. 0
After Zhao Guangcai turned off the light, he also lay down. 0
 
The next day. 0
As Zhang Xiaoxiao opened the door, she saw Chen Shuying sitting on a bench in the yard. 0
"Chen Shuying, why are you here so early?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked in surprise. 0
"I... I wanted to ask you for a favor," Chen Shuying said shyly. 0
"What favor? Go ahead," Zhang Xiaoxiao replied readily. 0
"I... I want to look for a job, but I'm worried that Xiao Liang won't have anyone to take care of him," Chen Shuying said with difficulty. 0
"Chen Shuying, you can look for a job in the town; there are many factories there, you can give it a try," Zhang Xiaoxiao suggested. 0
"The factories in town have high requirements; I'm afraid I won't be able to meet them," Chen Shuying expressed her worries. 0
"Chen Shuying, you're so smart; you'll definitely be fine," Zhang Xiaoxiao encouraged her. 0
"Really?" Chen Shuying asked uncertainly. 0
"Of course it's true," Zhang Xiaoxiao affirmed. 0
"Then I'll give it a try," Chen Shuying resolved. 0
"Mm, Chen Shuying, you can do it!" Zhang Xiaoxiao encouraged her. 0
" Xiaoxiao, the village chief is so nice to me; I want to ask him for a recommendation letter, but I'm afraid of bothering him," Chen Shuying said hesitantly. 0
"Chen Shuying, since the village chief said he would help you, just go ahead and ask him; he definitely won't refuse," Zhang Xiaoxiao said. 0
"Mm, what you said makes sense," Chen Shuying agreed. 0
