Chapter 319: The ancestors have a deep connection with the white snake
Ye Xiaomei couldn't interrupt for the time being.
Just look at Zhaodi looking at Laidi firmly:
"Then you don't have to worry about it. I will save all your salary for you. I won't touch a single cent. When you need money, just tell me what you need it for and I'll give it to you."
"Why? I also earned it through my own hard work. Do I have to hand over my hard-earned money to you just because you're my sister?"
Lai Di's temperament is never as calm as her sister's, and she doesn't care about the situation.
Zhaodi saw this and said with a wry smile: "Boss, to be honest, this is a private matter between us. I'm sorry to make you laugh. I'm going to leave work now. See you tomorrow."
Zhaodi pulled Laidi out of the door in a panic.
Lai Di vigorously shook off his sister's arm: "Why are you pulling me?"
As you pulled me downstairs, the noisy footsteps gradually faded away. Ye Xiaomei picked up a cup of tea and drank it while going downstairs.
Then I heard the sound of two sisters arguing at the hotel door.
Zhaodi - Don't think I don't know that the guy named Wang who often comes to eat here is very close to you. You didn't go back to your rental house after get off work the night before yesterday, so you went to see him, right?
Lai Di was hit in the heart - what's it to you? I'm grown up and I know it. Even if I like him, what's wrong? I can't have a relationship?
Zhaodi - I'm afraid that you'll be cheated. Come on, go back. When you get back, tell me clearly whether the two hundred yuan I gave you the day before yesterday was spent by him?
Ye Xiaomei locked the shop door and watched the two sisters quarreling as they walked away into the night.
Alas...Ye Xiaomei is also an older sister. Sometimes it is the most frustrating when her kindness to her younger sister is not understood.
Fortunately, her sister Xiaoya is well-behaved and sensible.
Tomorrow is Friday, and it is the last day of classes. The last two classes in the morning are biology classes.
However, this time the class did not take place in the laboratory, and the students were a little frustrated and suddenly there was a lot of noise.
Even Shang Zhen was like a demon: "Teacher Qin, you said last week that you would borrow some biological specimens that we have never seen before this Friday."
"That's right, Mr. Qin. You also said there are various kinds of snakes."
"And they say there are fossils."
The students were disappointed. Qin Rong was calm and smiled as he pressed his palms together:
"Everyone, be quiet. Here's what happened. There's new research progress in the biology lab, so many specimens are temporarily banned from being borrowed. Plus, we're going to be on holiday starting tomorrow, so there's a delay."
Ye Xiaomei was not interested either. All she could think about was the scene of Ma Qijun coming to pick her up after school in the afternoon.
"Tsk, what a bummer." The students instantly felt like eggplants hit by frost.
"That's it. There's no fun."
"Who said there's no fun anymore?" Qin Rong's face suddenly became serious:
"We have had three classes in total. In the first three classes, we learned about some of the animal's living habits and the use of various equipment. In this class, I will test you."
When they heard that there was going to be an exam, all the students became nervous again.
These were no problem for Ye Xiaomei. There was only one question on the test that was beyond the syllabus, which she had not learned before. It was: under what circumstances would snakes and rhinos turn white.
This question stumped many students, and they could have handed in their papers early, but this was the last question.
Qin Rong suddenly stood behind Ye Xiaomei.
Ye Xiaomei thought this was not simple. First, albinism. Second, gene mutation. Third, genetic genes.
But Ye Xiaomei suddenly felt that Qin Rong was standing behind her, and she did not put down her pen.
Damn it, they designed such a huge set and spent so much effort just to lure her into some human trafficking laboratory.
Plus what I overheard in the hotel last time, which was about training myself up as quickly as possible so that I can participate in the research.
If Ye Xiaomei acted like she knew everything, Qin Rong would definitely exaggerate and use her status to make an exception and recruit her to participate in the experiment in advance.
"Hey." Shang Zhen poked with his elbow and whispered, "How do you fill this?"
Ye Xiaomei cleared her throat: "I don't know how to do that either."
Shang Zhen glanced at Ye Xiaomei for a moment longer, sighed, and muttered in a low voice: "If even you don't know how to do it, then I don't think it's that embarrassing if I don't know how to do it. Hand in the paper."
With Shang Zhen taking the lead, the students in the senior class put their test papers on the podium one after another, returned to their workstations, packed their bags and left.
Ye Xiaomei looked around and saw that most of the classroom was empty, so she decided to hand it in as well.
When she just left the classroom, she subconsciously passed by the window and looked at the teacher. Sure enough, Qin Rong couldn't wait to look at the test paper, and that one happened to be Ye Xiaomei's. Qin Rong couldn't help but frowned and looked out the window.
Ye Xiaomei quickly looked away, luckily several classmates came over.
——Ye Xiaomei, what did you answer to the last question?
——Yeah, I don’t know how to do that. I remember the teacher hasn’t taught this yet.
“I don’t know how to do it either, so I didn’t fill it out.”
When Ye Xiaomei said this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The dumpling restaurant was closed today, and Zhao Mei happily packed her things in the rented house and divided them into two bags.
Strictly speaking, it is a bag, a backpack.
"Xiao Mei, the things in this backpack are packed by mom. You can take them with you to save trouble for the troops. Towels, toothbrushes and other things are all packed for you. There are also dried beans for Qijun. The dried fish is bought by mom. We didn't dry it at home this year."
Zhao Mei packed her things and stuffed them into her bag while saying, "I also bought two single coats for your father. It's cold today and he's cutting grass and herding sheep and the mountain wind is blowing hard."
Ye Xiaomei didn't care about what he said next. She gave her mother two thousand yuan anyway.
"Mom, did you buy this bag for me?" Ye Xiaomei noticed the backpack.
Although she can earn money now, she still uses a cross-body cloth bag. Even though it is made of old cloth and looks colorful, she is used to it. For example, she doesn't need to take it off to look for a needle bag or something.
"Yeah." Zhao Mei was busy happily and didn't care at all.
"Then why don't you buy one yourself?" Ye Xiaomei took a look and saw that it was made of canvas, which cost more than twenty yuan each.
Zhao Mei put down her work and said with a smile: "Mom is going back to her hometown, not going on a long journey, so she is used to carrying a bag. Besides, you are going on a long journey, so what? You still want to carry a snakeskin bag or a bag on your back? You are going to the army, you can't let people laugh at you."
Ye Xiaomei felt sad.
Zhao Mei calmly took out a brand new aluminum lunch box and stuffed it into her backpack: "You have to take this with you too. The canteen is open on time on weekdays. It's not convenient for a female comrade like you. You can take the food back to your family compound to eat."
Ye Xiaomei suddenly came back to her senses: "Mom, how did you know there is a family compound in the army?"
"How could I not know? When I was your father's daughter-in-law, I went to the army to see your grandfather. But at that time it was not called an army, but a base. Just after the liberation, your grandfather was injured and returned to the base, and I went to pick him up."
When her grandfather was mentioned, Ye Xiaomei suddenly remembered how good he had been to her since she was a child. She also knew that her grandfather was a retired soldier.
But he has a very stubborn character, otherwise how could he be angered to death by his grandmother in the end.
Ye Xiaomei didn't interrupt. She opened her backpack and checked the things she brought. Her mother had prepared everything, even towels.
"At that time, many people said that I went there to collect your grandfather's body. Your father was not at home, and your grandmother only wanted to get special care in the name of a military family member, such as more food coupons, and other things. No one cared about anything else. So I went there. I thought he was really dead, but everyone said it was a miracle that your grandfather survived."
Zhao Mei talked to herself, gritting her teeth as she tied the bundle corner to corner, then sat down and continued:
"That was caused by a shell. Do you think he was destined to die? After your grandfather came back, his leg was only slightly lame, and it was almost impossible to see when he walked. He was incapable of doing physical work. Later, wasn't he assigned to herd cattle as a special care by the brigade?
It only hurts a little when it's cloudy and rainy. I heard your grandfather mention it once, saying that when he was knocked unconscious by the explosion, he dreamed of a white snake, which turned into a woman and blew on his legs, and he woke up.
"..." Ye Xiaomei suddenly felt as if she had eaten a fly. She seemed to have some memory of this incident. It was when she was about four or five years old, her grandfather said it cheerfully, but she really believed it at that time. As she grew older, she thought her grandfather was bragging.
