Lu Mianmian followed Zhou Erni to the brother and sister's home at the westernmost end of the village.
Two small sheds, plus a utility room and an open-air kitchen outside, cover an area of only about ten acres. The conditions are difficult but still relatively clean.
Zhou Erni put the fish into the stone sink in the kitchen and took Lu Mianmian to find Zhou Jinghua who was sorting out tools.
Lu Mianmian looked at the fair and thin man in front of her. His features were exceptionally delicate and handsome. He was tall, but there seemed to be an inextricable gloom between his eyebrows.
It looks...unpleasant.
She still likes the smiling Zhou Erni.
Zhou Jinghua glanced at Lu Mianmian's face covered with herbs, and said in a low and cold voice: "Clean your face, let me see..."
Ten minutes later, the criss-crossing scars of varying depths on Lu Mianmian's face were revealed, which was shocking to see.
"I don't know who is so mean to scratch Sister Xiaohua's face like this. It's simply not a human being."
Zhou Jinghua frowned and glanced at his sister: "Go and get all the herbs you collected, I'll see if I can use them."
Soon, Zhou Erni brought in a basket of herbs: "Brother, can Sister Xiaohua's face be cured? Will it leave ugly scars?"
"She's lucky that she didn't get ulcers. She'll definitely leave scars, but the medicine you found is good, so it shouldn't be a big problem..."
Zhou Erni picked, steamed, and ground the herbs according to Zhou Jinghua's request, and then applied the medicine to Lu Mianmian again.
"Brother, can you let Sister Xiaohua live with me? She has nowhere to go and will be bullied." After Zhou Erni applied medicine to Lu Mianmian, she began to persuade her brother to keep Lu Mianmian.
Zhou Jinghua looked indifferent and unmoved: "It's inconvenient for her to stay in our house."
Zhou Erni was unwilling to give up: "But you are not at home all the time, I want someone to accompany me, Sister Xiaohua can read and can teach me the multiplication formulas."
Zhou Jinghua glanced at Lu Mianmian with a little surprise. "That's not right. Although she has lost her memory, it doesn't mean she has no family. Send her to the county public security bureau to register in a few days..."
River City——
With less than half a month left before the college entrance examination, Zhu Tangli's admission ticket has not yet arrived.
She realized that there might be a problem, so she took the information and went to the relevant department to inquire.
The characteristic of the work in government agencies is perfunctory and buck-passing. She patiently asked several times and finally found the person in charge of the local Ministry of Education who was responsible for solving her situation - Director Huang - a day later.
When Jian Si Ning arrived outside the office, he found a dozen people gathered in the corridor. They all looked anxious. Some were squatting by the door, and some were pacing.
She looked at the closed office door and was about to go up and knock on it when she heard a middle-aged couple next to her say that Director Huang had not arrived yet.
Jian Si Ning rolled up his sleeves and looked at his watch. Oh my god, it's already 10 o'clock and he's not at work yet? How can such a lazy person be a good leader?
Just as I was about to greet him in my heart, I heard someone shouting, "Director Huang is here——"
Jian Si Ning turned his head and saw a group of people swarming around Director Huang, who had arrived late with a briefcase under his arm.
Director Huang, who is in his forties, has a bald complexion and a small beer belly. He is not tall but holds his head high with a haughty look.
The first to squeeze in was a well-dressed couple. After the door was closed, the noise from the corridor was blocked out.
When Jian Sining turned around, his eyes met with a middle-aged woman wearing a steel factory uniform next to him.
When the woman saw Jian Si Ning had nothing in his hands, she immediately came over and kindly reminded him in a low voice, "You young people just don't understand the ways of the world. How can people do things for you when you don't give anything?"
"I'm just asking about my..."
"Everyone asks. At least if you don't have a Red Pagoda Mountain, people may not pay attention to you."
After hearing this, Jian Si Ning lost all favor towards Director Huang who blatantly accepted bribes. He wanted her to give him a gift? That was wishful thinking!
Not long after, the couple inside came out happily.
