Chapter 342: 342 substitution
Other medicines shouldn't be given, not possible. Tomorrow, let Tan Shaoting deliver it once over, but giving the medicine in my hand to someone else is not possible.
"Yuanyuan, today I'm going to the fertilizer plant with a truck, Xiao Li can't go, so I'll make the trip. Anyway, I don't have to do anything."
Su Yuanyuan thought for a bit, and that's actually fine.
"Big sister, don't feel burdened. Actually, there's nothing to worry about. You're just riding the truck. Coming back also, it's good to see the outside."
Zhao Yanping nodded. "But I still need to trouble Xiao Yun, let her look after Xiao Li."
"Don't worry, we're all here."
Zhao Yanping quickly shook her head. "But you shouldn't, the kids are still young. Please, absolutely don't go, there's Xiao Yun, if anything happens, let her come to find you."
Hearing Zhao Yanping's words, Tan Shaoting finally relaxed his furrowed brow. It's not that he's inconsiderate, but the kids are indeed young, he can go himself, but his wife must not go.
After seeing them off, Tan Shaoting started to help his wife freshen up.
After returning home, Zhao Yanping hurriedly gave Zhao Yanli more medicine before starting to tidy up.
Today, she had to go out. Actually, she was afraid in her heart, but since her little sister is sick, she had no choice.
She really wanted to ask her elder brother or second brother to go instead. But recalling what the driver said, it made sense too.
She checked on her sister several times, noticing she was sweating a lot and the fever had gone down, she finally felt relieved.
There were also vegetable buns, so she could take some with her to eat on the truck.
Before six o'clock, Zhang Fusheng and the others started the truck. There was hot water at home, they mixed in some cold water to add to the truck. Once started, they could set off shortly.
Zhao Yanli also got up, feeling much better, but still lacking energy.
She ate some corn porridge, pickles, and buns.
Being able to eat buns in the morning made the two drivers very satisfied. It's good to have a woman at home who understands these needs. Zhang Fusheng became more determined in his thoughts. This was a good opportunity to let his mother, sister, and son see. If they all agreed, he would broach the subject with Zhao Yanping.
Hai Yan was still sleeping. Zhao Yanping checked on her daughter before carrying her bag to the truck. She carried the money around her waist.
She followed along with Zhang Fusheng directly because the fertilizer was found with his help, she needed to follow along.
Along the way, Zhang Fusheng was coaxing information out of Zhao Yanping, learning about her hometown, her family situation, and the fact that all five siblings were here.
"Xiao Ping, you're really good to your daughter."
Zhao Yanping smiled. "How could I not be? She's my daughter. Besides, I never planned on remarrying. It might just be the two of us relying on each other in the future."
"You're still young, how could you think like that?"
"Living alone isn't bad by itself."
"Hai Yan needs a companion, actually that man wasn't deserving of you."
"Haha, he's doing pretty well." Zhao Yanping suddenly felt a desire to confide.
"It's not about how life is in the moment, but about how it will be in the future."
"He's remarried and free from his parents. It's all good days ahead for him."
"Who can truly say what will happen in this world?"
"Indeed, who would think a seemingly honest and sincere man could be so irresponsible?
Actually, I realized it's all my own fault. If I could stand on my own, they wouldn't dare. It's my own incompetence."
"Actually, there's nothing wrong with a woman relying on a man."
Zhao Yanping just smiled. Relying once had already cost her so much. From now on, she would rely on herself.
"Did that man ever look for you two?"
"He did, but my little sister disagreed. At that time, I also wanted to give Hai Yan a home, a father. I even thought of being with him again."
Who knew he'd turn and start working for a younger girl. Since then, he never came looking for us again.
Such a person, no matter how tough life would be for us, I wouldn't dare to entangle with him again."
"Right, such a man isn't worth being with again. If you had other plans, it might be okay."
"Haha, what else could I plan? Even if I were with him again, I wouldn't hold him in my heart."
That reassured Zhang Fusheng, there were no lingering feelings for that man, which was good.
Knowing her situation made him even more determined in wanting her.
But after all, at this age, there's no rashness. Without the family's approval, saying anything would be inappropriate, bad for either side.
They only stopped at the agricultural station for fuel, one person got off to buy food in a restaurant, then they ate in the truck.
Six days later, in the evening, they arrived at the transport team. "Xiao Ping, come stay at my place, share a room with my mom. The transport team doesn't have heated rooms, it's too cold. It's not safe to stay at an inn."
Zhao Yanping thought about it, deciding it was indeed the best choice. Actually, if she weren't carrying money, she definitely wouldn't want to trouble others.
Zhang Fusheng thought even God was helping him.
His home wasn't far from the transport team, Zhao Yanping just sat on the back seat behind him.
Zhang Fusheng suddenly felt a sense of solidity, like she's the one. If the family didn't agree, then he'd live on his own.
Once home, Zhang Fusheng's mother saw her son bringing back a grown girl and was quite pleased. So she was especially warm.
Zhao Yanping felt very embarrassed. She's a gentle woman, which made her charming in front of the elder.
"Girl, there's hot water, go soak your feet and relax."
"Thank you, Aunt, I can do it myself." How could she let an elder serve her?
While the girl was freshening up, Zhang Fusheng discussed his intentions with his mom. "Mom, see if she's suitable? If you agree, I'll talk to her."
"I think she's nice, I'll chat with her a bit." Her son finally agreed to find another partner. It didn't matter if she was a farm woman with a little girl, even without a job, as long as her character was good, that's acceptable.
Once Zhao Yanping finished freshening up, noodle soup had been cooked.
They were given an egg each. Mrs. Zhang smiled and urged Zhao Yanping to eat.
"I'm bothering Aunt too much." Zhao Yanping felt a little ashamed. She had always been the one to wait on others. Being served by an elder like this was really embarrassing.
"It's nothing, hurry and eat or the noodles will cool down. I'll warm the bed for you, tonight you'll sleep with Aunt, we can chat properly."
Zhao Yanping nodded with a blushing face. The elder made her feel like she couldn't resist.
