After my stepmother was shot, I took my brothers to the countryside

Chapter 108 Xiao Nanqing's Concerns

The ox cart continued to bump forward, but the atmosphere in the cart became extremely awkward and no one spoke anymore.

Zhang Fengfeng sat in her seat, but her heart was in turmoil.

She looked at Zhou Jindong and Shi Shengxia sitting together, the two of them talking in low voices from time to time, with smiles on their faces.

The fire of jealousy in her heart grew stronger and stronger. She didn't understand why Zhou Jindong cared so much about Shi Shengxia but ignored her.

Zhang Fengfeng's hands were tightly gripping the corner of her clothes, and her knuckles were turning white from the force.

The ox cart finally arrived at the town. As soon as Gu Jianhua parked the cart, everyone jumped off.

"Uncle Gu, if you need anything, I can bring it back for you." After jumping off the ox cart, Shen Nian looked at Gu Jianhua who was still sitting on the ox cart.

Gu Jianhua looked up with a gentle smile on his face: "Shen Zhiqing, please bring me two bottles of clam oil for my face."

Zhang Fengfeng, Shi Shengxia and Zhou Jindong were walking forward. She turned around and happened to see Shen Nian and Gu Jianhua talking.

Both of them still had smiles on their faces. Zhang Fengfeng was puzzled. When did Shen Nian become so close to the people in the bullpen? They were even talking and laughing.

"Fengfeng, what's wrong?" Shi Shengxia turned around and asked when she saw that Zhang Fengfeng didn't catch up.

"It's okay, Shengxia, let's go. You want to go to the post office first, right?" Zhang Fengfeng said, then quickened her pace and caught up with Shi Shengxia and Zhou Jindong.

"Jiaojiao, you and Zhao Gaoxuan want to go to the post office first, right? You two go first, I'll wait for you at the state-owned hotel later." Shen Nian said to Ye Jiaojiao. She came to the town today and had something else to do.

Ye Jiaojiao nodded at her without thinking much, then walked towards the post office with Zhao Gaoxuan.

Shen Nian watched the two people's backs gradually walking away, then turned and walked in another direction.

When they arrived at the place, Shen Nian, who had changed his clothes, carried a full basket of things and knocked on the gate.

The moment Xiao Nanqing heard the sound of the courtyard door, he put down the pen in his hand and looked up at his grandparents.

"Grandma! I'll go open the door!" His tone was filled with obvious anticipation and joy.

Sun Yue'e smiled and nodded: "Okay, go open the door."

Xiao Nanqing immediately stood up, walked briskly to the door, and opened the courtyard door.

"Sister, you're here!" Although there was no smile on Xiao Nanqing's face, there was a gleam in his eyes.

Shen Nian looked at his little adult appearance and smiled: "Yes, I came to see you." As he said that, Shen Nian walked into the yard.

Sun Yue'e watched her enter and said with a smile, "As soon as the gate rang, Nanqing knew you were here!"

"Really? Then we have a secret code from now on. But Nanqing, next time you have to listen carefully to the knock before opening the door. Don't open it when someone else knocks." Shen Nian joked with a smile, and followed Sun Yue'e into the house and put down the backpack.

"Grandpa Xiao, are you feeling well? I brought some medicine with me, such as cold medicine. I'll keep it for you as a backup. It's too cold this winter, so you have to take care of your health." Shen Nian said with concern, taking out a medicine bottle from his backpack.

Grandpa Xiao was sitting on the kang in the room. Listening to Shen Nian's concerned voice, he raised his head with a kind smile on his face.

"Xiao An, you're here. I'm really sorry to bother you with so many things every time."

"No trouble, Grandpa Xiao, your health is important." Shen Nian said, placing the medicine bottles on the kang table and introducing their usage.

Then he took out the things in the basket one by one, including vegetables, fruits, pork, bacon, flour, rice, and some canned snacks.

"Grandma Xiao, Grandpa Xiao, the New Year is coming soon. These are the things I prepared for you in advance so that you can have a good New Year." Shen Nian handed the things to Grandma Xiao with a smile on his face.

Ever since Xiao Nanqing called Shen Nian sister, Shen Nian no longer called Sun Yue'e "big sister". She directly called her Grandma Xiao and Grandpa Xiao, and told them that her name was "Xiao An".

At this age, everyone is very smart. Sun Feng'e didn't ask her anything and just changed her address to call her "Xiao An".

Grandma Xiao took the things and smiled from ear to ear: "Hey, Xiao An, good boy, why do you always bring so many things here? Since I met you, we don't lack anything now. It's nice for you to come and see us."

"Grandma Xiao, these are all I can bring. I also hope to do something for you."

Shen Nian said this, but in her heart she was thinking, "I've accepted so many jade and jewelry from you! I have to give you more gifts to feel at ease! I'm willing to give you gifts all the time!"

Grandpa Xiao also sighed: "Xiao An, you are so thoughtful. We old couple really don't know how to thank you."

"Grandpa Xiao, please don't be polite to me, I won't dare to come next time if you continue like this." Shen Nian joked with a warm smile on his face.

Xiao Nanqing stood aside, watching this scene quietly, with a warm feeling in his heart. He had long regarded "Sister Xiao An" as his own relative.

The care and help from "Sister Xiao An" made him more determined to study hard, but when it came to studying, Xiao Nanqing suddenly became like a deflated ball.

He couldn't go to school to study. His grandparents had sent him to school before, but after just a few days, someone in the class spread the rumor that he was the child of a landlord.

This news was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.

As a result, the children developed prejudice and rejection towards him and ran away when they saw him.

Some even threw stones at him and put snakes, insects, rats and ants in his desk, which made Xiao Nanqing feel very depressed at school.

He also tried to explain to others that he was not the son of a bad landlord, but it was of no avail.

Others don't care what the truth is. Instead, they enjoy the pleasure of bullying Xiao Nanqing.

In the end, Xiao Nanqing became more and more taciturn and chose to leave school directly. He even began to dislike studying and didn't want to read.

But his grandfather told him that studying was the key to changing his destiny and changing his title as a landlord. So, Xiao Nanqing began to study at home with his grandfather.

"Nanqing? What are you thinking about? Say goodbye to your sister Xiao An quickly." Seeing that her grandson was in a daze, Sun Yue'e gently patted Xiao Nanqing's shoulder to wake him up from his thoughts.

"Sister, are you leaving now?" Xiao Nanqing came back to his senses and looked at Shen Nian.

Shen Nian smiled and nodded at him: "I came to the town with my friends. It's not convenient to keep them waiting for too long. I will come to see you after the New Year."

A hint of disappointment flashed across Xiao Nanqing's eyes, but he quickly adjusted his mood and said to Shen Nian with a smile: "Okay, sister. Then be careful on the road and pay attention to safety."

Shen Nian patted his head gently before leaving.
