Chapter 30 What kind of cousin is this?
Qiao Wanqing came to a grocery store near the meat processing plant, which sold some ordinary daily necessities.
Because many people get off work late, this daily necessities store provides great convenience.
Of course, the price is relatively not cheap.
I heard that the proprietress here is the sister-in-law of the director of the meat processing plant. Anyone who understands the ways of the world will come to support her from time to time.
This is also the reason why this small daily necessities store has been able to survive.
"Sister, I'm here to ask you about someone!" Qiao Wanqing said as she placed a handful of candy in front of the woman.
"Hey, girl, why are you so polite? Just say whatever you want to say. I will tell you everything I know." The proprietress spoke politely, but her hands did not stop moving. She put the candy directly into her pocket.
"Sister, I'm from the next town, and I'm here to look for my cousin Zhao Cuihua!" This name was definitely made up at random.
"Cuihua, I know you!" The proprietress's eyes lit up when she heard the name!
…
Is it such a coincidence?!
"Cuihua, your cousin!" As luck would have it, Zhao Cuihua happened to pass by.
Hearing the boss lady calling you, you look confused?
"Cousin?" Although confused, she still walked over.
"Haha, hello, cousin!" Qiao Wanqing really wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into at this moment. What cousin? She just wanted to crawl into the crack!
"Cousin?" Zhao Cuihua looked at Qiao Wanqing carefully, her face full of confusion.
What kind of cousin is this?
Why don’t you know me?
"You don't know him?" The proprietress saw Zhao Cuihua's confusion and unfamiliarity, and looked at Qiao Wanqing again. Could he be a liar?
Considering that I’m the only one in charge of the store on weekdays, could it be that someone is targeting me?
It’s all because of my damn beauty that even women are attracted to me.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt this way. I subconsciously protected the peaks of my chest. Being too arrogant is not a good thing.
"Cousin, don't you recognize me? Your mother is my cousin, and we played together when we were very young!" At this moment, Qiao Wanqing could only bite the bullet and continue to make up stories.
I hope... I won’t show my weakness!
When Zhao Cuihua heard that it was a relative from her mother's side, she immediately believed it.
"Hi, I was wondering who it was. It turns out to be my cousin!" So Zhao Cuihua greeted her innocently.
This, dear, is not necessarily a must!
The proprietress was delighted when she heard this.
It's okay as long as you're not here for your beauty.
"Cuihua, your little cousin is really pretty, but a little thin. Does she have a boyfriend?" The proprietress was sure that it was her own cousin, so she thought of her troublesome younger brother. He was already an adult, and he traveled around all day long. If he got married, maybe he could settle down.
"Cousin, do you have a partner?" So, Zhao Cuihua started to act as a messenger!
"Cousin, I have a partner and am getting married soon. I thought you work at the meat processing plant, so I wanted to ask if I could order some meat for the wedding banquet!" Qiao Wanqing noticed the eager gaze of the proprietress, guessed her purpose, and quickly expressed her opinion.
Okay, I'm here to do business, not to get married!
"Sister, my last name is Tao, you can just call me Sister Tao. Do you have any other sisters in your family?" Sister Tao was very familiar and had already started to think about other sisters.
"I have a sister who is just fifteen years old."
"No, that won't work. He's too young. My brother can't wait!" Sister Tao waved her hands when she heard that.
When Zhao Cuihua heard this, she said hello to Sister Tao and took Qiao Wanqing away.
On the way home, Zhao Cuihua specifically reminded Qiao Wanqing not to provoke the Tao family, as none of them were easy to deal with.
Qiao Wanqing nodded obediently. After being pulled back home, Qiao Wanqing sat on the stool in her house, holding a teacup in her hand and feeling a little uneasy.
After all, she's not my real cousin, so being dragged home directly feels a bit weird...
"You're not looking for me to order meat, are you?" Zhao Cuihua gulped down a glass of warm water before looking at Qiao Wanqing.
"Sister Cuihua, actually I'm not your cousin..." After thinking about it, she couldn't continue telling this lie.
"I know!" Zhao Cuihua poured herself another glass of water, tilted her head back, and drank it all in one gulp.
It can be seen that she is really thirsty.
"You know?" You still took me home even though you knew? Although she didn't say it, Zhao Cuihua also understood what she meant.
"I'm 36 years old this year. To be honest, I can give birth to you. How could we have played together when we were young? Besides, on the way back, I thought about all the relatives on my mother's side, but I can't figure out which branch your relative comes from!" Zhao Cuihua expressed her thoughts very honestly.
After hearing this, Qiao Wanqing was extremely glad that she had told the truth first.
"Sister Cuihua, come and have some melon seeds and candy!" Qiao Wanqing immediately put the melon seeds and candy on the table.
As the saying goes, more courtesy is less annoying.
"Just tell me first. I may not be able to help you, and it's not good to take your things directly." Zhao Cuihua is not a person who is short-sighted.
She was tempted by this thing.
But she knew that she couldn't just take it.
"Sister Cuihua, I came here today just to ask about someone."
"who?"
"He Lan!"
"Yang Ping's mother? Who did she bully again?" Zhao Cuihua understood immediately when she heard it!
“…” Qiao Wanqing didn’t expect that there would be an unexpected gain.
It seems that I am not the first person to inquire about He Lan, and Qiao Haijiao is not the first person to be bullied by Yang Ping and others.
"My sister." Seeing this, Qiao Wanqing told the truth.
"That child usually relies on her father's status and her mother's protection of her, but she has caused a lot of trouble. You are not the first one to come to me to inquire about her, and of course, you will definitely not be the last one..." Then, Zhao Cuihua told Qiao Wanqing everything she knew.
Yang Ping and others once forced a girl to commit suicide by jumping into the river. Although she was rescued, the child transferred to another school and left the town.
This incident caused a lot of uproar at the time, and He Lan had to use a lot of connections to save Yang Ping.
Zhao Cuihua's advice to Qiao Wanqing was to just make the other party promise not to bully her sister again and not to pursue the matter further.
The Yang family's background is far stronger than they see, and it is not something that ordinary people can touch.
After hearing her words, Qiao Wanqing nodded, indicating that she understood.
On the way back, Qiao Wanqing thought a lot.
Because I was worried about Qiao Haijiao, I went to the school specially.
This time, the old man at the door said that Qiao Haijiao had just left school.
"Thank you, sir!" Qiao Wanqing thanked.
"It's okay, it's okay!" The old man waved his hands repeatedly, his tone a little impatient, and his eyes were evasive, showing that he was guilty.
Qiao Wanqing turned and left. Seeing her retreating figure, the old man couldn't help but sigh, "Alas!"
