"I'll take a break. I have to take my parents out for a walk later."
Fang Qing: “…” You who are not working should take a rest, but I who am working didn’t even ask for a rest.
"I just finished my work in the kitchen. I need to rest. I have to go to work in the early morning."
She took off her apron and threw it away, gave him a cold look, and turned into the bedroom.
Lu Jiangting: “…”
It was like this every time before. He would go to Fang Qing’s rental house to eat. Fang Qing would cook and he would take Wang Chenchen out to play.
After dinner, Fang Qing cleaned up the table and chairs and washed the pots and pans, then she took over Wang Chenchen.
"Uncle Lu must be tired after taking care of you for half a day. Come to your mother." 』
Yes, that's what she said, word for word.
Lu Jiangting felt mixed emotions.
Not only Yuyao changed, but Fang Qing also changed.
Finally, Lu Jiangting took Wang Chenchen and his parents out for a walk to help digest the food.
After strolling for a while, the old man sat on a chair under the tree and said to Lu Jiangting, "Send your mother and Chenchen back first, and come pick me up later."
Lu Jiangting said, "It's getting late and the weather is getting colder. We might as well go back early."
"I'll sit for a while, you listen to me."
"Okay, I'll take them back first. Just sit here and don't run around."
"Um."
On the way, Wang Cuilan said, "Your father wants to talk to you."
Come to think of it.
Lu Jiangting nodded.
Wang Cuilan whispered to him, "It's about Fang Qing's house."
"Has it been sold?"
Wang Cuilan watched Wang Chenchen run away before she whispered, "Yes."
Lu Jiangting had an idea in mind.
After sending Wang Cuilan and Chenchen back, he went to the tree to pick up Lu Cong.
Sure enough, Lu Cong took out a remittance slip from his pocket.
"This is something your sister sent me. I've been keeping it with me. I'll give it to you when you come back today."
Lu Jiangting frowned after looking at the remittance slip for five thousand yuan.
He remembered that he bought it for 5,500 yuan, which was Jianjun's death compensation plus the more than 1,000 yuan he gave to Fang Qing. How come the price has dropped?
"Then I'll give it to Fang Qing later."
"You can't give it to her." Lu Cong held his hand and said, "Fang Qing is a restless woman. I always feel like she looks at me like an enemy. You have to be on guard against her."
Lu Jiangting was stunned. "Dad, why does she look at you like an enemy? You must have seen it wrong."
"No way. At my age, I trust my feelings."
Lu Jiangting felt that Fang Qing might feel the burden was heavy, but she would not look at her father like an enemy.
I'm afraid he's sick and I'm just overthinking it.
"This money must be given to her. It was bought with Jianjun's compensation."
Lu Cong: "You're right to listen to me. Fang Qing is not an ordinary woman. You have to be on your guard against her."
"Dad, that's not what I meant. I don't know if she really has a problem. Even if she does, we can't take the money."
"You..." He knew what kind of person his son was and he would definitely not take the money.
"Oh!" He just sighed and said, "Okay, you can give it to her, but you can't give it all."
Lu Jiangting: "What?"
Lu Cong said, "Did you forget? There is more than a thousand dollars in here that is your own money. You should at least take out the money you lent her."
"That's fine. I borrowed about eight or nine hundred dollars."
"What do you mean eight or nine hundred? It was one thousand one hundred and thirty. Although three hundred of it was Yuyao's dowry, you paid it back later, right?"
Lu Jiangting nodded.
It seems like a lifetime ago when I talk about this again.
This is also the thing he regrets most in his life.
I thought to myself, if only I hadn’t borrowed that thousand yuan.
Even if you want to borrow it, it would be better if you didn't go to Yuyao to ask for the three hundred yuan, so that things wouldn't have become like this.
In the end, Lu Jiangting agreed to take back the more than one thousand yuan and give the rest to Fang Qing.
Lu Cong kept shaking his head. He felt that after they died, Jiang Ting would not be able to defeat that woman.
…
The next day, Yi Yunshuo was going out to play with them, so he did not return to the dormitory tonight. Instead, he chose to stay at their house overnight. He slept in the same room with Lin Ping, saving Lin Yuyao the trouble of cleaning up a room.
However, after a night, Yi Yunshuo complained to Fu Huaiyi.
"Your brother-in-law's feet are so smelly. I smelled his stinky feet all night."
Fu Huaiyi knew, of course, "If you can't bear it, sleep with him."
"You must be kidding. How can two grown men sleep on the same bed? I might as well just sleep on the couch."
"Yeah, why didn't you come out and sleep on the sofa?"
Yi Yunshuo: “…” Yeah, why didn’t he think of it last night?
At this time, people choose to go out and play, which usually means shopping.
Those who have no money can just watch, and those who have money can buy things.
It’s October now. Every autumn rain brings a cold spell, so we have to prepare for the winter.
Especially for people like Fu Huaiyi and Yi Yunshuo, they don’t know if they will have holidays later, so they take advantage of this day off to buy everything they need.
After walking around the mall, Yi Yunshuo felt sorry for his wallet.
"If I had known you were coming to such an expensive place, I wouldn't have come."
Fu Huaiyi said angrily: "I advised you to buy less, but you didn't listen and you blame me."
"It's a sale. This set of thermal underwear is 50% off. Of course I have to buy an extra set so I can change into it later."
"Then why are you so sad? You earn so much money, why do you keep it if you don't spend it?"
"I'm keeping it to get married."
"Then your wife is quite expensive."
Fu Huaiyi knew very well how stingy he was.
This kid has saved a lot of money over the years.
The two of them argued all the way, but Fu Huaiyi still sent him back to the army.
They had to go to work again the next day, so Fu Huaiyi did not go out to play in the afternoon and rested at home.
Lin Ping will also leave tomorrow, and he will go out for a walk alone in the afternoon.
He was familiar with the surroundings, so he went straight to the sisters' bookstore.
Unexpectedly, I saw a familiar person.
"Sister Xiaotong, why are you here?"
Ye Xiaotong was surprised and asked, "Lin Ping? Why are you here?"
Lin Ping said, "I go to school in South City. Today is a holiday, so I came to visit my sister."
"Oh, I heard you were admitted to university."
Looking at the energetic Lin Ping, she was quite envious.
If I were a boy, I would probably have a chance to go to college.
Seeing that Yuyao didn't tell Lin Ping about herself, Ye Xiaotong briefly explained that she was there to work.
But his family didn't allow him to do so and asked him not to tell anyone back home about her.
Lin Ping agreed readily.
Then I stayed in the bookstore and chatted with a few sisters.
After walking around the streets for half a day, he didn't feel tired and seemed quite energetic.
Lin Yuyao seemed to be lacking in energy. She left home at around seven in the morning and got home at almost three in the afternoon.
After walking around for a long time, she really didn't want to go anywhere and just wanted to lie on the bed.
Even though he was so tired, Fu Huaiyi still said that they could strengthen their relationship while Lin Ping was still here.
