Cheng Qiuqiu said, "Sister, I've finished making breakfast! You eat breakfast, and I'll bring it inside for my older sister!"
Cheng Xiaokui asked, "Big sister, how was your night? Is your back still hurting a lot?"
Cheng Qiu Kui said, "Big sister is really good at enduring pain. She was so badly injured, but she didn't utter a sound all night. She even quietly got out of bed to go to the toilet."
I slept too soundly last night and didn't hear a thing. We had agreed that I would take care of her.
She pursed her lips, feeling that she hadn't done anything.
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "My eldest sister has had a tough life. We can't even imagine the hardships she endured. Sigh."
Cheng Qiu Kui turned around to get breakfast from the kitchen, and she immediately saw Cheng Chun Kui standing at the door.
She said, "Big sister, why are you up?! Go inside and lie down!"
Cheng Chun-kui said, "My back injury is much better. The medicine the hospital gave me is quite effective. It doesn't hurt much anymore. I came out for a walk, otherwise I feel like I'm going to freeze up!"
Cheng Xiao Kui went over and took her older sister's arm. "Lying down won't make you stiff. Lying down is so comfortable. If you can sit, don't stand; if you can lie down, don't sit!"
Cheng Chun-kui said, "I guess I'm not destined to enjoy life. If I'm idle for even a little while, I feel uncomfortable all over. I can get back to work today."
Cheng Qiu Kui said, "Hey, we're totally opposites. If I were to lie down, I could roll around in bed all day."
Cheng Chun-kui said, "Then go roll around on the bed. I'll do your work!"
Cheng Qiuqiu said, "That won't do! You're injured, and I'm still asking you to do chores for me? Do you have a bad sister like me?"
Cheng Chun Kui reached out and gently pinched Qiu Kui's little nose. "How can you call me a bad little sister? It's because I want to spoil you!"
Cheng Qiu Kui hugged Cheng Chun Kui's arm, smiling sweetly.
The sweet moment between the three sisters was suddenly interrupted by a sound coming from outside the door.
"Open the door! Did you bring the money?!"
Cheng Xiaokui ran to open the courtyard gate, and unsurprisingly, she saw Song Wenhui pushing her bicycle in as she opened the gate.
She said, "I brought the money last night. Where's the household registration booklet? Let me see it."
Song Wenhui said, "Give me the money first!"
Her hand was on her pocket; she wouldn't act until she saw the benefit—that was her consistent principle.
Cheng Xiao Kui immediately gave Cheng Qiu Kui a wink.
Cheng Qiuqiu understood immediately. She quickly ran over and closed the courtyard gate, not giving Song Wenhui any time to escape.
Song Wenhui's face twitched violently, and she opened her mouth to curse, "You little slut, you've been using all your tricks on me. Do you think I owe you anything?!"
"I raised you with so much hardship, and not only do you not know how to be filial, but you're also constantly scheming against me? It's true what they say, children are a debt to us; they all become our enemies when they grow up!"
Cheng Xiaokui said, "We'll have a fair trade, no one owes anyone anything, there's no enmity or debt between us!"
She returned to her room and took out the 2,000 yuan she had prepared.
Song Wenhui looked at the two bundles of yuan and couldn't help but purse her lips.
She had already found a courtyard house for her son, and the seller was asking for 2,000 yuan. With that money, she could buy the courtyard house for her son!
She reached out to take the money.
Cheng Xiao Kui put her hands behind her back and said, "Cash on delivery! Where's your household registration booklet? Let me see it!"
Song Wenhui reached into her pocket and took the household registration booklet out.
Cheng Xiao Kui gave Cheng Qiu Kui a wink.
Cheng Xiao Kui dashed past her mother from behind and snatched the household registration booklet from her mother's hand.
Before Song Wenhui could react, she heard Cheng Xiaokui say, "Here's 2000 yuan! You're not allowed to cause any more trouble for Qiu Kui!"
Song Wenhui shook her head and said, "What about the 'three turns and one sound'? You haven't given them to me yet! Give me back my household registration book!"
She originally planned to take the 2,000 yuan first, and then decide what else she wanted after the three turns and one sound were delivered to her home.
As long as the household registration book is in her hands, it's like she's holding Cheng Qiuqiu's life in her hands. If Cheng Qiuqiu wants to get married, she has to meet all of Cheng Qiuqiu's demands!
However, Cheng Xiao Kui disrupted her plans.
Cheng Xiaokui said, "You think I manufactured the 'three turns and one sound'? You have to buy those things at department stores!"
And you still need tickets! Even if you have tickets, you don't know if the seller has the goods or not!
"Within half a month, the Du family will definitely have the 'three turns and one sound' (referring to a specific type of appliance) and deliver it to your home! They won't shortchange you on these things!"
Song Wenhui immediately became anxious, "What? You don't even have the 'three turns and one sound' (referring to a radio, sewing machine, and watch), and you think you can just trick me into giving you my household registration book? No way!"
Cheng Xiaokui clutched the two thousand yuan and said, "If you don't agree, then leave! Anyway, the money and the household registration book are in our hands now!"
Song Wenhui's face darkened as her three daughters stood in front of her.
She tried to rush over and snatch the household registration book, but she was no match for the four hands in one fist!
She was furious; given the current situation, if she didn't agree, she would lose both her money and her household registration certificate.
She was in a hurry to buy a courtyard house for her son, and the deal had already been made, but the other party wanted the money today!
She was afraid that if she couldn't pay the money, the courtyard house would be gone!
She rolled her eyes, weighed the pros and cons, and finally said, "Okay, give me the money, and send it to me within half a month!"
If it had been even a day later, I would have gone to the Du family and made a scene! I would have made a scene so that all their neighbors knew about it!
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "Don't worry! I'll definitely give you the things!"
She threw the two bundles of money at her mother.
Song Wenhui took the money and put it into her cloth bag. She then pushed her bicycle away.
Cheng Xiaokui ran over and opened the door. She watched Song Wenhui walk out of the courtyard and immediately closed the door.
Cheng Qiuqiu gripped the household registration booklet tightly, as if afraid it would fly away from her hands.
She wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and said, "That was close! I almost lost my household registration!"
Cheng Chunqiu said, "Actually, even if we don't give her the money, we can still find a way to steal the household registration book. I don't think she deserves this 2,000 yuan."
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "I know we can steal it from home. My younger brother is our inside man; if I talk to him, he'll definitely help."
However, given Song Wenhui's personality, she would definitely cause trouble at the Du family's house if that happened. Rather than that, it's better to give her the money and let her buy okra for the rest of her life!
Cheng Chunqiu nodded and said, "You're right... at least these were the conditions she agreed to herself. Once she gets the money and the three turns and one ring, she shouldn't make things too difficult for Qiuqiu..."
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "Wait a while, when Du Ziqiang arrives, you two can go and get your marriage certificate!"
We'll buy you a courtyard house, and we'll get the business up and running and making money! Nothing is more reliable than money!
As long as you have money, you can stand tall and live whatever kind of life you want.
Cheng Qiuqiu nodded, "Sister, I know, I'll listen to you!"
She held Cheng Xiao Kui's hand and looked towards the courtyard gate. She was more anxious than anyone else to make money now, because she was determined to pay this money back to her sister!
Du Ziqiang is now her hope in life, but for some reason, she feels uneasy...
