Chapter 215 Feed him yourself!
After hearing what everyone said, Xia Jing felt even more wronged. She was just a little slower at work, what was wrong with that? Why did everyone dislike her?
Soon, it was midnight and she hadn't finished washing the clothes! Everyone went home to sleep, and the lights in Zhou's house were turned off long ago.
There were hardly any people in the compound at this time. Xia Jing was so hungry that she was choking. She touched her rumbling stomach and felt weak and sweaty.
The clothes had not been washed yet, so she stood up, holding her head and stumbling towards Zhou's house.
But when I got to the door, I found that it was locked from the inside.
The Zhou family was so heartless that they didn't even leave a door for her.
Xia Jing knocked on the door, banging on it hard, but the person inside didn't respond.
After knocking for a long time, her hands hurt even more. Xia Jing sat weakly in front of the door, hugging her legs with both hands, tears falling down her face.
She just didn't understand why she was in such a miserable state. In her previous life, she was so happy and had no worries about food and clothing, but in this life...
Xia Jing cried so hard that she didn't know how long it had been before she heard a pleasant voice: "Comrade, why are you crying in the middle of the night?"
The sound was not loud, but it was very clear in the dead of night.
Xia Jing raised her head and looked at the person who came with tears in her eyes. She saw that he was a thin man in his forties.
"I..." Xia Jing only said one word and couldn't help crying again.
"Wake up, why don't you go to my house and drink some water first?"
Xia Jing hadn't had a drop of water for most of the day. She was really thirsty.
"Thank you, brother!"
She wanted to call him uncle, but she thought about the afterlife. No matter how old a man is, he will be happier if you call him brother than uncle. Xia Jing wanted to drink some water. She felt uncomfortable all over.
Xia Tian stood up. Maybe she had been squatting for too long. When she stood up, she felt a black screen in front of her eyes and fell straight out.
Just when she was about to fall, a strong hand grabbed her thin body.
When she woke up again, Xia Jing found herself lying on the bed, her throat was very dry.
"Comrade, are you awake?"
The uncle came over again, holding a cup in his hand: "Can you drink some water by yourself?"
Xia Jing struggled to sit up. She took the cup from the uncle and said gratefully, "Thank you, brother."
Xia Jing gulped down a large glass of water, but it was not enough to fill her up. Her stomach growled and Xia Jing's cheeks turned red. She felt a little embarrassed to be so hungry in front of a stranger.
"Are you hungry?"
Xia Jing nodded shyly, and the uncle suddenly smiled: "It's a pity that I don't have much food."
Xia Jing raised her head, her eyes filled with astonishment.
I don’t know what’s wrong with this uncle. When he asked me if I was hungry just now, shouldn’t his next sentence be “Let me make something for you”?
"I... Big Brother, can you give me something to eat? I haven't eaten for two meals!"
"It's not impossible, but why should I give you food?"
The uncle didn't refuse directly, but looked at Xia Jing's young body with a presumptuous look.
This look was very familiar, and Xia Jing's heart skipped a beat. If she remembered correctly, didn't this uncle also live in the dormitory of the cotton textile factory?
I am Zhou Zheng's daughter-in-law, and Zhou Zheng is the leader of the cotton textile factory. How dare this person?
"you……"
"We don't know each other, why should I help you?"
"We don't have much food at home, what do you think?"
Hearing this, Xia Jing felt cold in her heart. She wanted to say stubbornly, "If you don't want to help, then don't help!"
Gurgle, gurgle... Xia Jing was just about to get up and get out of bed when her stomach started to growl again.
She gritted her teeth. She regretted what happened to Liu Guizi in the past. Now that she had just come to Zhou Zheng's house, she didn't want to ruin her reputation.
The uncle did not stop her and continued to look at Xia Jing with a presumptuous look.
Some things are strictly controlled nowadays. Although he is a bachelor and has no wife, he will not force women.
…
"Ning Zhiyuan, I just wanted to hear what he wanted to say to me!"
Although Ning Zhiyuan didn't ask much after returning, Xia Liang still explained.
Anything that arises between a husband and wife must be made clear at the time, otherwise misunderstandings will accumulate and small misunderstandings will become big misunderstandings.
"Um!"
"Do you believe me?"
"Um!"
Ning Zhiyuan remains concise and to the point.
"By the way, I just heard from Zhou Hao that his return quota will be available soon, maybe in a few days. Have you found out for me?"
Xia Liang told Ning Zhiyuan the news he had just received, and Ning Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows: "You don't want him to return to the city?"
Xia Liang shook her head. She knew what would happen in the future. In fact, all the educated youth would be able to return to the city soon, probably next year.
"I just don't want him to return to the city early. If possible, I hope Zhou Hao's return quota can be arranged, so that when he leaves, his father will be in trouble, and the effect will definitely be better!"
If there is no hope at the beginning, people will not be too disappointed.
But if there is already hope, or even if he is almost back to his original form, the effect will definitely be better if we beat him back to his original form at this time!
Ning Zhiyuan tapped the table with his hands, as if he was thinking about something.
"Ning Zhiyuan, is that okay?"
"You know I don't have any skills and I don't know many people. You are the only one I can ask for help!"
"Besides, you are my man! If my wife is in trouble, isn't it your duty to help her?"
Xia Liang moved to Ning Zhiyuan's side, hugged him from behind, rested her chin on his shoulder, and smiled ingratiatingly.
"Okay, I'll do as you say!"
Ning Zhiyuan was suspicious. Normally, Xia Liang and Zhou Hao didn't have any deep hatred. Could it be that they really couldn't get the love they wanted and turned to hate because of love? But when Xia Liang attacked Zhou Hao, she didn't show any mercy.
At least she didn't feel it. But Xia Liang's idea was indeed good. To press a person into the dust when she was at her most proud was definitely heartbreaking.
"I knew you were the best!"
Hearing that the man finally agreed, Xia Liang excitedly kissed him on the cheek with a "bo" sound.
"Oh, grandma really understands me. Look at the snacks she brought me. They are all things I can eat. You can eat these too, Ning Zhiyuan. Look at them. They are like mung bean cakes. This snack is not sweet at all!"
Ning Zhiyuan's body stiffened. He didn't expect Xia Liang to kiss him actively.
Before he could react, Xia Liang had already gone to look at the snacks.
She opened a bag of mung bean cakes, took a piece, and took a bite. It was really delicious, sticky and not very sweet.
Seeing Ning Zhiyuan looking over, Xia Liang took the mung bean cake and brought it to his mouth: "Try it, it's really not sweet!"
