Who else could it be but Jiaying who was sent to the hospital two days ago.
Probably because she was afraid that Dahei would bite people, she was still quite far away from the yard. When she saw Shen Wu and Xu Yin coming, she walked over quickly.
He looked a little embarrassed and said, "I'm sorry. I was discharged from the hospital today. I heard from the neighbors that my mother went to your house to make trouble."
As he brought a bowl of clams, he said, "You guys sent me here when I was in the hospital. I didn't expect my mom..."
"This is something an old classmate gave me when I was hospitalized. It's cold in nature. You can take it and eat it. I'm also offering this as a token of my appreciation."
Chen Wu and Xu Yin looked at each other.
It would be easy to deal with if this girl was as unreasonable as that family, but she seems to be a reasonable person.
But Shen Wu still shook her head and said, "No need for clams."
"No need to thank me. Anyone who saw what happened that day would have sent you to the hospital. It wasn't just Xu Yin and I who did it. Several families in our alley went there as well."
As Chen Wu spoke, she and Xu Yin entered the house. Dahei wagged his tail happily at her. Chen Wu rubbed his head and closed the door.
Jiaying stood outside the door and sighed inwardly.
Chen Wu entered the house and saw that something was wrong with the quiet home. She exchanged a glance with Xu Yin and slapped her head: "I forgot to answer the phone!"
It’s my first day at school and I’m still not used to it.
Chen Wu hurried out again and saw a bowl at the door, covered with a small piece of cloth. What else could it be but clams?
Shen Wu gave it to Xu Yin.
Xu Yin quickly brought it into the kitchen, and the two of them rode their bikes to rush to school. When they came out, they said that they would pick up Manman today.
The two hurried to school.
The place was completely empty, but there was still a teacher there. Shen Wu asked around, and the teacher said, "Lu Yuan left with her classmates. She happens to live in the same courtyard as me. You should come with me."
"Don't forget next time."
Chen Wu nodded quickly, mainly because she hadn't developed this habit yet. On weekdays in Laoya Village, she ran to school and ran back by herself.
I followed the teacher to the staff quarters.
The teacher knocked on a door and said, "Teacher Yu, Lu Yuan's parents are here."
When Chen Wu went over, Manman was sitting at someone's table eating. While eating, she was also picking up food for the child next to her. She couldn't even use her chopsticks properly.
Chen Wu couldn't bear to watch it and stepped forward to express her gratitude.
"Lu Yuan, come back with me quickly."
Manman was still a little reluctant: "Mom, I haven't finished eating the steamed eggs yet."
Teacher Yu also joked, "Let her finish her meal. My son can eat a few more bites with her around."
The little boy sat there quietly eating, and his eating manners were much better than Manman's.
Chen Wu thought that she had never noticed Manman liking steamed eggs so much at home, so she smiled and said, "No, his father is still worried at home."
Then he gave Manman a look that said, "Lu Yuan, are you leaving or not?"
far away.
Lu Xuan felt his nose was a little itchy.
Lu Ye shouted, "Brother, are sales really good during the New Year?"
Manman picked up the remaining eggs and said, "Remember to finish eating the eggs. My mother said that we should not waste food."
Shen Wu closed her eyes.
How could she raise such a daughter? She lets others eat the leftovers.
The boy next to him didn't look disgusted at all. He quietly took the bowl and ate with a spoon.
As they walked, Chen Wu educated her daughter, asking her to be more sensible. She was very unhappy: "He doesn't like to eat, but I do. Not only do I like to eat, I even stare at him while he eats. Auntie likes me very much."
"No matter how much I like you, I can't be so tactful."
Manman couldn't do anything about her mother, so she nodded obediently: "Mom, godmother, you can't blame me, it was you who forgot to pick me up."
"If you guys hadn't forgotten about me, I wouldn't have gone to someone else's house for dinner... and I wouldn't have lost my sense of propriety."
Shen Wu...
Xu Yin chuckled.
"It's my fault for forgetting to pick you up. I apologize."
Manman thought about it and said: "Okay, I accept it."
Xu Yin laughed even louder, walked to the bicycle, held Manman in the front, and Shen Wu sat in the back, looking depressed.

When she got home and looked at the bowl of clams, Shen Wu fried them with chili peppers, a lethal amount. When she bought the chili peppers, the local old lady selling vegetables looked at her with surprise.
Chen Wu was still thinking about when it would be convenient to get some chili peppers and peppercorns from Sichuan Province.
Looking at the bowl, Shen Wu thought about it and decided to send it away.
Nowadays, when educated youth return to the city, they have to work in the street office first. Given Jiaying's situation and poor health, there are even fewer jobs that she can adapt to.
Those who don’t have an old house will have to get one from their company, and only those who are married and have children will get one.
Where should this girl who suddenly returned to the city go? Fortunately, the weather in Guangzhou is not cold in winter. Since she was not allowed to stay, she just laid a bag of fertilizer and urea at the door, and her other things were next to it.
It would be fine if it doesn't rain. If it rains, it will only make living here more difficult. Chen Wu gave her the bowl.
She added, "My husband said that whoever wants to occupy our house will be thrown dung on their head."
"At worst, other people's lives are worth more than yours."
…
After saying that, Chen Wu left. Jiaying stood there in a daze for a moment, looking at the white flour buns in the bowl.
Shen Wu was the only one who ate the lethal amount of fried clams with chili peppers. She also mixed a packet of egg instant noodles into it.
Lu Ye looked at Chen Wu with the eyes of a devil.
Manman had never eaten spicy food before, and she was eager to try it. Chen Wu gave her a taste, but before she could eat it, she cried because of the spiciness.
Chen Wu laughed so hard that she fell forward and backward.
The little guy's eyes were red: "Mom, you're bad!"
Lu Xuan quickly asked her to eat something less spicy: "I told you not to eat it, but you insisted on eating it, and you blame your mother?"
The little guy was crying.
Shen Wu smiled and said, "Okay, Mom was wrong."
I spent the whole day apologizing to my daughter.
After eating, Chen Wu prepared the clothes, while Lu Xuan went to have a look around Zhongda. Chen Wu guessed that it was only a day, and the boss probably hadn't conveyed the message yet.
Unexpectedly, Lu Xuan brought two pieces, and both were sold.
When he came back, he gave the money to Chen Wu and went to wash up.
He lay down and said to Shen Wu, "I found a house in the countryside and rented it for ten yuan a month."
Chen Wu raised her eyes: "What are you going to do?"
"The Chinese New Year is coming soon. No matter where you go, people take the New Year seriously. I was thinking of getting some roasted nuts and selling them in crowded places for two days. I'm familiar with the free markets in Guangzhou."
"Even if we don't sell them, we can still make a profit by exchanging them for others later."
Chen Wu said, "You still want to learn from the Melon Seed King!"
Lu Xuan was a little confused. Chen Wu thought that maybe this person hasn't been in the newspaper yet.
However, selling fried snacks is an idea, and Shen Wu did not object. She nodded and said, "You are right. Everyone needs these snacks to grind teeth during the Chinese New Year. Fry some for me to try, and I can give you some advice on the taste."
Shen Wu smiled.
Lu Xuan pulled her: "Let's go to sleep."
As soon as he said he was going to sleep, the next door started to bustle, and Chen Wu also became more energetic. Could it be that her provocation was effective?
