Zhao Chenguang: "Yangyang, it's my blessing to be able to marry you in this life. Thank you for never abandoning me and giving me such wonderful children."
"Don't say such silly things. It's all as it should be."
Zhao Zhili ran over and hugged Zhao Chenguang's leg, saying comforting words in his childish voice.
"Such a cunning child."
After speaking, Zhao Chenguang put down his briefcase, picked up Zhao Zhili, and sat next to Jun Jiuli to chat.
"Sister-in-law, you and Yangyang keep chatting. I'll go cook."
"Brother-in-law, how can that be? You take Zhili to play, and Yangyang and I will cook."
Sister Shen said, standing up, but Jun Jiuli quickly pulled her back down.
"Sister-in-law, we are family. Why are you being so polite?"
"Yes, you sisters-in-law rarely see each other, so you should catch up properly."
"Alright then, thank you, brother-in-law."
"Sister-in-law, you are being too formal."
...
Seeing Zhao Chenguang cooking skillfully in the kitchen, Sister Shen gave Jun Jiuli a thumbs-up.
She whispered, "No wonder you're willing to suffer with your brother-in-law. But you should also seriously consider my words, the child..."
Jun Jiuli smiled, "The child is also willing. He has always treated me very well. We will go through any hardship together.
It seems like things are about to get chaotic here. I'll send you away tomorrow. Tell Mom and Dad not to worry about me. This is my own choice."
"Alas, alright. I came with such full confidence. I even promised Mom and Dad that you would definitely be swayed by my sweet talk. It seems I was overthinking it."
Seeing her worried face, Jun Jiuli changed the subject, "I envy Chenguang cooking. Doesn't my brother cook at home?"
Sister Shen blushed, "Of course he does."
"Hahaha, Mom taught him well, right?"
"..."
That night, Jun Jiuli and Sister Shen shared a room with Zhao Xin Nuan, while Zhao Chenguang slept with Zhao Zhili.
The next day, Jun Jiuli got up early to cook. After breakfast, she sent Sister Shen off to the train. By the time she returned home, Zhao Chenguang had already gone to work.
The two children were still sleeping soundly. Recently, there had been a lot of unrest among university students, and things were a bit chaotic inside. Jun Jiuli was on holiday at home.
As Zhao Chenguang returned home, a group of people followed him. They began searching the house as soon as they entered, and the two children hid behind Jun Jiuli in fright.
The search was like a storm, and the house was instantly transformed. However, they found nothing.
The money and vouchers were all legitimate income from the original owner and Zhao Chenguang, but their sinister and mocking eyes as they left made them uneasy.
"What are Daddy and them doing? I'm so scared."
Zhao Chenguang squatted down and tenderly wiped Zhao Zhili's tears.
"It's okay, it's all over. Zhili, don't be afraid."
"Yes, yes, I'm not afraid when Daddy is here."
Saying that, he nestled into Zhao Chenguang's embrace. Zhao Xin Nuan also came closer, asking Zhao Chenguang to hold her.
Jun Jiuli wiped her tears, then turned her head away as if she couldn't bear to watch, her voice hoarse as she said, "I'll go cook."
The family was extremely silent that afternoon.
At night, with the two children sleeping between them, Zhao Chenguang tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
"Yangyang, do you think they'll let me go if they don't find anything to incriminate me?"
"I don't know. We'll take it one step at a time. The children and I will always be with you. Go to sleep quickly. You need to be well-rested to face everything."
"Mmm."
Shui Wa: "Detected. Ye Zhao Qiu has a small space. It contains spiritual spring water, which is why she dared to divorce her ex-husband.
When she learned that something was going to happen, she stockpiled a lot of grain and cloth, which is why she was so defiant about being sent down.
After drinking the spiritual spring water, her appearance improved, and her body became healthier. Her strength increased, so she could handle the farm work in the countryside.
Host, when are we going to snatch her space?"
"Let her gloat for now. We'll deliver a heavy blow to her when she reaches her destination."
"Okay."
Zhao Chenguang had been notified yesterday that he didn't need to go to work today. He was distracted all morning.
Footsteps sounded outside, and soon there was a loud knocking at the door. Zhao Zhili and his sister hid in Jun Jiuli's arms, and Jun Jiuli directly pulled them to stand up.
The leader waved a piece of paper. Zhao Chenguang didn't even have time to look closely before someone escorted him away.
He had seen such things before; those who shouted loudly and resisted often got beaten.
He looked at Jun Jiuli's direction with heartache and walked forward with heavy steps.
Because of his involvement, Jun Jiuli and Zhao Zhili also became unregistered residents. Those people looked at Jun Jiuli and the others with condescending eyes.
"Mrs. Zhao, you should come with us."
"Okay."
"Mom, I'm scared, woo woo woo~"
"Woo woo woo~"
Someone next to them impatiently kicked Zhao Zhili, "Stop crying, you cubs who exploit loopholes in the country and eat spoiled food."
Zhao Zhili was so frightened by the kick that he stopped crying. The ignorant Zhao Xin Nuan was still wailing.
Fearing further beatings, he covered Zhao Xin Nuan's mouth with his hand, "Be good, sister, don't cry, don't cry. Everything will be fine."
A group of people had already gathered on the road below. There were those who truly corrupted and exploited the people, and there were also those like Zhao Chenguang who did practical work and suffered unwarranted disasters.
The two children were still young, and the original owner had a very good reputation on this street. When children didn't understand something, they would come to ask for advice.
The onlookers would only throw things at them symbolically. If they were too clean, they didn't know what treatment they would receive later.
The people at the front were miserable. Some even threw stones at them. The escorts pretended not to see, and even praised this behavior.
"It's him, it's him! He ruined my sister, a good university student. Our whole family collapsed, woo woo woo~"
"Oh my god, this person is too wicked."
The person said this and looked around for pebbles. He grabbed a handful and unceremoniously threw them at the person the man was pointing at.
"Well hit, well hit. We shouldn't be lenient with people like this. They are evil forces, and we must resist."
