Black Lotus is reborn. Hush! Just lie down and be quiet.

"Wow, Xiaoyu is so awesome!"

Xiao Yingyue's shout interrupted Xia Qingqing, and she walked out to see what was going on.

The motorcycle stopped on the road outside the door. Si Jinyi and Xiao Yingyue surrounded the car and cheered. People passing by looked at them as if they were crazy.

Wearing a gas mask in broad daylight, jumping around, he really doesn't seem like a normal person.

"Xiao Yu, you are awesome. Haha, riding this bike makes me the coolest person on the road!"

Si Jinyi couldn't wait to go for a ride on his bike, but unfortunately the paint was not dry yet.

Xiaoyu smiled shyly with sparkling eyes. He was very happy because he could help his handsome brother. He was not a useless boy anymore!

Xia Qingqing saw the car that made Si Jinyi forget himself. The original body of the car was sprayed with lavender paint, but now Xiaoyu painted flowers, insects and skulls on it. These completely unrelated things were perfectly combined by Xiaoyu. His use of colors was still very bold, and the gorgeous colors made the skull, which should have been scary, become a little cute.

Si Jinyi loved these exaggerated and warm colors and patterns so much that he even brought a fan out of the house and blew it towards the motorcycle.

Xia Qingqing doesn't understand colors, but she thinks that Xiaoyu's paintings are particularly beautiful. Although they are colorful, they are not messy at all and have an ultimate beauty.

"Xiaoyu is the best. You can draw whatever you want in the future. I support you!"

Xia Qingqing praised him generously. Xiaoyu grinned and became bolder. He pointed at the wall and asked, "Sister, can I draw here?"

He had wanted to draw on the wall for a long time, but was afraid of being scolded by his sister.

Xia Qingqing looked at the motorcycle that looked like a conspicuous bag, then looked at the wall. She wanted to take back what she had just said. She really didn't want to live in a house that looked like a conspicuous bag.

"Yes, you can draw it!"

Xia Qingqing gritted her teeth and agreed, believing that adults must keep their words.

"I'm going to paint!"

Xiaoyu cheered and went to paint. There was still a lot of paint left from what Si Jinyi bought, enough for him to fill the whole house.

Xia Qingqing also smiled. As long as Xiaoyu was happy, she would support whatever she wanted to do. Although paint had an impact on the body, she had spiritual liquid and would definitely not let Xiaoyu get hurt.

The paint was finally dry. Si Jinyi couldn't wait to start the car. He also took the jealous Xiao Yingyue with him and drove away. He rode around the city for a full hour and only came back after attracting enough attention.

"Sister Qingqing, I want to buy a motorcycle!"

After Xiao Yingyue jumped out of the car, she was still not satisfied and made a loud request.

"I think you want to go to heaven, go step on the sewing machine!"

Xia Qingqing gave her a slap on the face. Xiao Yingyue shrank her neck and obediently went to operate the sewing machine.

In the evening, Si Jinyi called and said, "Zhuang Hongye left the address of the printing and dyeing factory where she used to work. I called and asked, and she stopped working there a long time ago."

"Which printing and dyeing factory?"

Xia Qingqing was not disappointed. She knew that someone in the printing and dyeing factory must know Zhuang Hongye's information.

Si Jinyi gave the address of the printing and dyeing factory and hung up the phone.

Xia Qingqing planned to look for someone the next morning. That night, she, who seldom dreamed, dreamed of Zhuang Hongye and Song Chunlan. They were holding hands and smiling at her. She wanted to pull them away, but woke up from the dream.

"Hongye, Sister Chunlan, I will definitely find you!"

Xia Qingqing couldn't sleep, so she got out of bed and walked to the windowsill, looking at the crescent moon hanging in the sky, muttering to herself.

The next day, after having breakfast, Xia Qingqing told Xiao Yingyue about the work for the day and prepared to ride her bike to the printing and dyeing factory. When she was almost at the store, Sister Xu ran out and saw her and shouted, "Qingqing, you're here just in time. There's a call for you!"

The person who called was Qian Liujin. The last time they went to harass Xiao Zhiguang's family, Qian Liujin performed very well, so Xia Qingqing asked him to find someone and paid him two yuan a day. This business did not go through Qian Liujin's sister-in-law Ma Chunhua, thus eliminating the middleman's commission. Qian Liujin made a net profit of two yuan and worked very hard.

"I found out about Song Chunlan you were looking for. She is having a hard time at the Red Star Farm. She just had a miscarriage after being beaten by a man."

Qian Liujin was angry. He couldn't even get married, but this bastard had such a beautiful wife but didn't know how to cherish her. Both God and Yue Lao were fucking blind.

"How is Song Chunlan now?"

Xia Qingqing's heart sank. She was a step late. It was all her fault for being useless. She had been looking for someone for such a long time.

"It's not good. She is very weak and has to go to the fields to work without taking good care of herself. Her mother-in-law scolds her for not being able to lay eggs, and her husband beats her every day." Qian Liujin became more and more angry as he spoke.

Moreover, he and Song Chunlan are fellow villagers, both from northern Jiangsu, and they can't bear to see their fellow villagers being bullied like this.

"Where are you now?"

Xia Qingqing changed her plan. Zhuang Hongye wanted to take action during the Mid-Autumn Festival, so it was not so urgent. Now Song Chunlan was more urgent, so she had to go and save Song Chunlan first.

"Here at the farm. I came here yesterday, but the ferry disappeared, so I haven't come back." Qian Liujin replied.

"I'm coming to see you now, and you can call a few brothers, each for two dollars!"

"to make!"

Qian Liujin agreed readily. His brothers didn't have any proper work, and two yuan a day was a lot of money, even higher than the salary in a state-owned factory.

Xia Qingqing rode her bike to the ferry station and bought a green one-way ticket for six cents. The monthly ferry ticket was two yuan, but she didn't get it.

There were so many people waiting to get on the ferry that she could hardly breathe. They were all rushing to work in Pudong.

[In the 1980s, people crossed the river by ferry. There are still ferries in Shanghai now, and the ticket costs two yuan.]

After getting off the ferry, Xia Qingqing rode her bike to the Red Star Farm. Sister Chunlan was in dire straits. If she arrived one minute later, Sister Chunlan would have to suffer one more minute.

The bastard Zhang Jianguo must die, and so must the two old bastards who helped him bully Song Chunlan!

Xia Qingqing's anger grew stronger and stronger. She asked for directions while riding and arrived at Red Star Farm an hour later. Qian Liujin was waiting for her on the road.

"I called six brothers and they are coming soon."

Qian Liujin didn't expect her to come so soon, and hurried to explain.

"When we get to the farm, don't show any mercy to Zhang Jianguo. Just don't beat him to death!"

Xia Qingqing took out fifteen yuan and stuffed it into Qian Liujin's pocket, which was one yuan more than the agreed salary.

"Don't worry, we are the best at beating people up, and nothing will happen. But we have to have a legitimate reason, right?"

Qian Liujin spoke in an elegant manner, which made Xia Qingqing look at him with new eyes. He turned out to be a cultured gangster.

"You and Song Chunlan are from the same hometown, so just say you are her family!"

"to make!"

Qian Liujin agreed. Ten minutes later, his six brothers also arrived. They were the ones who had gone to the Xiao family to harass people last time.

Zhang Jianguo lived on the farm. As soon as Xia Qingqing and the seven big men entered the farm, they attracted a lot of people's attention. A beautiful girl leading seven bandits did not seem to be here to do serious business.

"You've been pretending to be dead this early in the morning. I spent so much money to marry a loser like you, and you can't even lay eggs. Get up and get to work!"

Before they arrived at Zhang's house, they heard Zhang Jianguo's violent curses. Xia Qingqing's face changed. Qian Liujin was very good at observing people's expressions. Without her instructions, he rushed over with his six brothers and kicked open the door of Zhang's house.
