Chapter 381 She gave me such nice clothes to wear, but I can’t repay her
"My father was captured and forced to work as a miner. He couldn't carry anything with his shoulders or hands... He was often beaten by the foreman. Several of his students who didn't do their job well were beaten to death by the foreman."
Ruan Baoer wiped her eyes and said, "Later, my father-in-law stood up for him and helped him work. He secretly shared the gold he dug with him and asked him to help my grandparents. Otherwise, my father would have died in the mine long ago."
"This Zhao Shan is quite righteous."
Zhao Xiyan burst out laughing.
"My father never allowed me to talk to other men since I was a child, saying that I was married. Everyone in our village knew it." Ruan Baoer raised her head and said, "Brother Zhao... If I don't marry you, then I will go to guard my mother-in-law's grave."
"Let's talk about this tomorrow."
Zhao Xiyan rubbed her head and said, "Huai Ru, arrange a place for her to stay. If it is convenient... you can sleep with her and get her some pajamas."
"Hey, I got it."
Qin Huairu nodded hurriedly, wrapped the gold on the table with cloth, and stuffed it into Ruan Baoer's arms, "Let's go, I'll take you to rest. If there is anything, we can discuss it tomorrow."
"Ah."
Ruan Baoer looked at Zhao Xiyan with a red face and walked out the door.
"Xi Yan, listening to Ruan Baoer's tone, it seems that your father-in-law is not a particularly bad person." Zhang Youyi said softly.
"It depends on how you think about it."
Zhao Xiyan spread his hands and said, "He may be very nice to others, but my mother and I have never received any favors from him."
"This……"
Zhang Youyi and others hesitated for a moment.
"Okay, let's all go to bed."
Zhao Xiyan looked at the Yu sisters and said, "I'm busy today and can't take care of you..."
"What's this?"
Yu Haitang said carelessly, "However, this girl seems to be very stubborn. If you don't arrange it well, she will really go to guard your mother's grave."
"It's too early to say that now."
Zhao Xiyan shook his head and said, "Captain Chen and his men will probably send someone to investigate there tomorrow... Let's see what the results are."
"Captain Chen and the others will go to Miyun?" Yu Li asked in surprise.
"Then you have to go?"
An Xin joked, "Zhao Xiyan is a cadre...If he is involved in this kind of thing, his future will be ruined if he doesn't make it clear."
"Ruining her future is a small matter. It might even be bigamy." Lou Xiao'e said worriedly, "How about... Zhao Xiyan, just keep her. We don't need this little money anyway."
Yu Haitang and Yu Li blushed when they heard this.
How come Lou Xiao'e dares to say anything?
"Raising a baby secretly and raising a baby openly are two different things." Zhao Xiyan stood up and said, "Go and rest first, we'll talk about it tomorrow..."
"Eh."
Everyone stood up and walked towards their bedrooms.
Yan Qing hesitated for a moment and followed Zhao Xiyan.
The next day.
early morning.
When Zhao Xiyan woke up, Yan Qing was gone.
He lay in bed for a long time, then on a whim, he entered the supermarket.
"call."
Zhao Xiyan let out a long sigh and walked out of the supermarket.
He took out the disposable hot air balloon and stood on it.
boom!
A ball of flame spurted out.
The originally deflated hot air balloon immediately began to stand up.
As the temperature rose, the basket left the ground.
Zhao Xiyan lay on the basket and looked around vigilantly.
Only after rising seven or eight meters did they relax their vigilance.
There were lush trees all around, and there was no end in sight. It was not until he flew high into the sky that he suddenly realized that he was in a valley.
The valley was surrounded by steep cliffs. The hot air balloon rose higher and higher, but he still couldn't see the end. When he began to feel dizzy, he still couldn't see the end of the valley.
He knew he couldn't go up any further, so he thought about it and stepped out of the ring.
"call."
Zhao Xiyan suddenly woke up and took a deep breath.
It was almost over.
From the information he knew, he lived in a valley. The valley was very large and had a big lake. It was surrounded by cliffs that seemed to have no end.
Fortunately, he didn't see anyone, which means that the valley belonged to him alone.
Boom boom boom!
There was a sudden knock on the door.
"Xiao Zhao, are you up?" Yan Qing shouted outside the door.
"Woke up."
Zhao Xiyan responded.
"Then I'll get you some clothes and you can go take a shower." Yan Qing said with a smile.
"it is good."
Zhao Xiyan sighed and opened the back door.
But as soon as the door opened, I saw Ruan Baoer sweeping the snow.
She looked up at Zhao Xiyan and greeted him with a blushing face.
"Good morning……"
"it is good."
Zhao Xiyan nodded with a smile, "Let's go to the firebox and warm ourselves. There's no need to sweep the snow... The yard will look better with some snow."
"Eh."
After Ruan Baoer responded, she lowered her head and walked towards the study.
After half an hour.
After taking a shower, Zhao Xiyan also walked into the study.
At this time, Ruan Baoer was reading a newspaper. When she saw him coming, she retracted her feet in front of her in embarrassment.
"What are you looking at?" Zhao Xiyan joked.
"I'm reading... the Rabochaya Gazeta."
Ruan Baoer whispered, "We can't even buy this newspaper in our village."
"Of course you can't buy it. After all, this newspaper is only distributed in Beijing, right?" Zhao Xiyan said with a smile.
"No, we have opened branches in Shanghai and the south. It's written in the newspaper," said Ruan Baoer with a red face.
"Well, opening a branch?"
Zhao Xiyan was slightly stunned, then shook his head.
Opening a branch has nothing to do with him.
"Xiao Zhao, Baoer...eat noodles."
Yan Qing came over with three bowls of noodles and a few exquisite side dishes.
Ruan Baoer looked at the food and said seriously, "Brother Zhao, why don't I go to work?"
"Well, you refused to go yesterday when I asked you to. Why are you thinking about going to work today?" Zhao Xiyan said with a smile.
"I...we can't just sit back and enjoy the good life."
Ruan Baoer said in a deep voice, "Our food is so good, your salary is not enough. If I go to work, I can also supplement it a little."
"Need not."
Zhao Xiyan shook his head and said, "Let's talk about these things later... Well, why are you still wearing old clothes? Didn't Qin Huairu give you any clothes to wear?"
"I did, but... it's not good to accept someone's favor." Ruan Baoer said seriously, "She and I are not related at all, and she gave me such nice clothes to wear, and I can't repay her for it."
Zhao Xiyan was silent for a long time before he spoke, "She is my ex-wife... There is no favor or no favor, I bought all these."
"Ex-ex-wife?"
Ruan Baoer's eyes widened. "You...how old are you? Why are you divorced?"
"This matter is quite complicated." Zhao Xiyan said with a wry smile.
"No matter how complicated it is, you have to tell me."
Ruan Baoer said seriously, "Brother Zhao...I know those girls yesterday were not ordinary to you, but I know my limits. I just do my own thing and I won't care about other things."
"Let's talk about this slowly. Let's eat noodles first."
As soon as Zhao Xiyan finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
