Chapter 18: Don't Give Her Face.



"It's my thing, I get to decide what's mine."

Lu Zhixia replied coldly and then sat down on the bench.

If you tolerate someone who likes to take advantage of others the first time, then they will do it countless times afterward.

Because such people have no shame!

Su Lan said to Liu Yue'e, "Go back and cook your meal. Don't loiter around my house. If you want sesame oil, come with me to buy some at the beginning of the month."

Liu Yue'e was even angrier and almost threw the melon seeds in her hand. She could only point at them with her finger.

"Alright, you guys are something else. It's just a little sesame oil, right? We'll see!"

After saying that, he turned and left aggressively.

Lu Zhixia and Su Lan exchanged a glance and smiled.

Su Lan served the child a small bowl of rice, then sat down on a stool beside him. The sun had just set, and there was a beautiful sunset to watch.

A gentle breeze blew in my face, and the sweltering heat didn't seem so bad anymore.

Are you selling ice cream tomorrow?

"Hmm, I'll try it out tomorrow."

"What if it doesn't sell well?"

"I'll take it one step at a time. I'll definitely make money. If this path doesn't work, I'll try another one."

"Have you ever thought about finding another man?" Su Lan asked casually.

Lu Zhixia laughed out loud, "I'm not divorced yet, so don't joke about me."

"Then wait until after the divorce to find someone. A woman still needs a man, otherwise how can she live her life?" Su Lan couldn't help but advise, but then she thought that Lu Zhixia was getting married for the second time, so it would probably be harder for her to find a partner.

Why did I bring this up? I feel like slapping myself for it.

Lu Zhixia didn't refute, but she disagreed in her heart. Did a woman not have a good life after getting divorced?

She wants to create her own future, no longer a vine clinging to a man, but a towering tree growing tall and strong!

"What are you two talking about?" Zhou Cheng asked with a smile as he walked over. "I saw you sitting together from a long way off."

"Brother Zhou, you're off work so early today?" Lu Zhixia quickly stood up and made way for him.

As Zhou Cheng entered the house, he said, "The factory gave us an early holiday today, so they're not providing meals. That's why I came back early."

Su Lan followed closely behind and went inside. She took the things from the man's hands, then helped him take off his clothes and handed him a towel.

Looking at everything before her, Lu Zhixia seemed to see herself in the past, taking such meticulous care of Song Weidong and his entire family.

The result was indifference to his plight and betrayal through infidelity!

However, Sister Su was better off than her; she wasn't deceived and was able to live her own life well without living with her mother-in-law.

Feeling that my dinner was almost ready, I lifted the pot lid and saw that the food inside was almost cooked, so I covered the honeycomb briquettes back up.

Zhou Cheng overheard his wife's murmurs and realized that Lu Zhixia was cooking for herself. He thought to himself that this woman really had guts and would definitely be someone who could do great things in the future!

Lu Zhixia used a stool as a table and ate her meal outside. She could eat the remaining half bowl of rice the next morning. Since there were already shredded pickled vegetables, she didn't need to steam any vegetables.

Following Sister Su's advice, I gradually put the things I needed into the cabinet, leaving only an iron pot hanging on the wall.

Then she went to the washroom to wash her face and use the toilet. When she returned to her room and sat on the bed, when no one was around, she could calm down and think about what to do next.

First, you need to find out if the child is actually your biological child. Since you can't get through to the doctors and nurses, you'll have to find a way to deal with the child.

Looking at the newspapers posted on the wall, which contained some murder case novels, she suddenly had an idea: did the law enforcement team have any way to test blood relations?

Thinking of Zhou An'an, she decided to take some time to visit the law enforcement team.

————

Lu Zhixia woke up a little late, close to 6 o'clock, and hurriedly took a basin to the water room to wash her face.

When I came back, I saw that the iron pot had been opened and there was half a bowl of rice left inside.

Su Lan came out of the house carrying the child. "When I heated up my breakfast this morning, I also heated up yours. Eat it while it's hot!"

Lu Zhixia was very grateful to Su Lan for her help, but she didn't have time to eat, so she told Su Lan...

"I'm not eating now. I'll pack the food in a lunchbox and find somewhere outside to eat."

"That's fine, but you need to be careful when riding your bike."

"I'll be careful. Sister Lan, I won't say any more to you. I'll be going now."

Lu Zhixia put the lunchbox into a cloth bag, went back inside, tied her hair back up in front of the mirror, then took the key, locked the door, and went downstairs.

I rushed to the garage, grabbed my bike, and rode it away. It's a sunny day, so it'll probably be very hot.

When she arrived at the ice cream factory, she saw that the queue had shortened considerably. She stood obediently at the back of the crowd, expecting it would be her turn in about ten minutes.

However, you shouldn't take the food out to eat at this time, as that would be inappropriate.

Then it suddenly occurred to me that if I could make something to eat at home and sell it as breakfast at the train station entrance, it would probably be very popular.

But what kind of food can you make to earn money and get people to buy it?

She thought of tea eggs, which taste delicious and are nutritious, but eggs are not so easy to buy.

If a worker is working at home, each household can buy 5 jin (2.5 catties) of eggs with their food ration book.

However, it is likely that some people in rural areas have already started raising chickens and selling eggs privately.

When I have money in my pocket in the future, I can go to the countryside to buy a batch of eggs. Thinking about this makes me very motivated.

After the people in front of her left, it was finally her turn to buy ice cream. The price was about the same as yesterday. She ordered 100 popsicles, but didn't dare to ask for too much cream, so she only ordered 30.

As she was leaving, she noticed they had ice in their box, so she smiled and asked the female worker...

"Comrade, may I ask you for this piece of ice?"

The female worker, realizing she would have to carry the ice back home, nodded in agreement.

"Take it away, take it away."

Lu Zhixia picked up the ice block with both hands and her first feeling was how cold it was. It was such a big block, it must have been frozen for a long time. She put the ice block at the bottom and then spread ice cream on top.

Then cover it with the blanket to delay the ice cream from melting.

Carrying the box in both hands, I arrived at the parking area and secured it first.

I didn't choose to go to the train station by bike because there were only two trains in the morning. I had already missed the earliest one, and the next train would take more than an hour.

Instead of waiting, it's better to find an opportunity yourself.

I checked my watch and it was almost 9 o'clock; the sun had already risen high in the sky.

This old-fashioned watch was a perk given out by Song Weidong's factory.

Why would you give it to her?

Looking back now, I realize it was because I needed to turn my mother-in-law over and feed her at set times, in case she didn't remember the time after she went out.

That scoundrel of a man is good at scheming, but now this watch has come in very handy for her.

I took out my lunchbox and ate the hardened rice and pickled vegetables. When you're hungry, having something to eat is better than anything else.

They finished their meal quickly and then stood at the entrance waiting for others to come in.

I deliberately parked the car under a tree to block out the sunlight.

Just as she was considering whether to go somewhere else, she saw a group of teenagers walking over; there were probably several hundred of them.

She won her gamble again!
