"The car crashed?"
When Zheng Xiaoliang saw the bicycle on the cart, his first reaction was to ask
But after looking at the bicycle carefully, it looked intact and shiny. Compared to when Li Miaomiao rode away, the bicycle was still a little dirty, with spots of mud on it, and it was obviously specially cleaned.
"Of course it's not broken!" Li Miaomiao said quickly
What if this breaks?
"It's not broken, so what's this?"
Zheng Xiaoliang looked at Li Miaomiao with some suspicion. He felt that Li Miaomiao was weird. However, when he saw the obvious bloodstains on her clothes, he could tell where they came from. He did not take back the unpleasant words he had said.
"It was an emergency at the time, and I didn't think too much about it. I didn't even know your bike was there, and because I was in a hurry, I just rode away without saying hello to you, the owner. I'm really sorry."
"Tsk, the rumors in the village are really unreliable. The wife Pei Guoan married is quite polite. She even apologized."
Li Miaomiao was embarrassed for two seconds before she said, "Don't believe the rumors. I am indeed a polite person."
"Tsk, it's like I just met you on the first day."
This asking-for-a-punch tone was really due to the fact that he was in the wrong, otherwise Li Miaomiao would have immediately turned his face away and walked away.
"Okay, now that the bike is back, let's go."
Li Miaomiao was stunned when she heard this. She didn't expect Zheng Xiaoliang to react like this. This reaction was too bland. It didn't resemble the Zheng family's style at all.
Seeing Li Miaomiao's expression, Zheng Xiaoliang understood: "Why aren't you leaving yet? Are you still waiting for me to treat you to tea?"
"Of course not, it's just that I borrowed your bike without your consent. Aren't you angry?"
Zheng Xiaoliang rolled his eyes at Li Miaomiao. "If it were any other day, would you have tried to ride my bike? I'd probably break your legs! Today's situation is different. Human lives are at stake. Even if I'm not a good person, I'm still a human being. I won't stop you from saving someone."
"In that case, thank you very much. I'll be leaving now."
Since Zheng Xiaoliang didn't care, Li Miaomiao felt relieved and her impression of Zheng Xiaoliang changed again.
It turns out that we cannot look at people from a one-sided perspective.
Whether in the original owner's impression or in the book, the Zheng family appears to be a very stingy and difficult family, even to the point of being excessive.
Because of this, the Zheng family offended someone, was later reported, and suffered a lot.
Li Miaomiao felt relieved and free after returning from Zheng's house. She had no worries in her mind and her expression was much lighter.
Upon learning that Li Miaomiao had returned, Old Man Pei and Old Lady Pei, who had been worried, came over quickly.
"Second son's wife, are you okay? We were so worried. You don't know, if we hadn't persuaded him, Xiaofan would have run to the county town to find you. It was only because we were afraid of causing trouble for you that we stopped him. Even so, Xiaofan refused to go back with us and insisted on waiting for you at home."
Old Mrs. Pei was originally staying in the old house with Pei Yifan, but she went back temporarily because something happened.
"Mom and Dad, I'm sorry to have worried you."
"We are a family and we don't have to talk behind each other's backs. But if you encounter something dangerous like this again, don't act stubbornly. Although it's right to do good things, you also have to think about yourself, especially Xiaofan. You are his only mother now."
"Okay, I'll remember that. I'll be more careful next time."
Li Miaomiao accepted all the care from her elders. When she was in the deep ditch, her father-in-law rushed over. If she really needed help, she believed that her father-in-law would save her at all costs, regardless of whether it was for the child's sake or not.
In addition, the care from the two elderly people on daily basis makes Li Miaomiao, who rarely enjoys family affection, feel really warm in her heart.
Old Man Pei and Old Lady Pei felt comforted when they saw that Li Miaomiao listened to their words.
In fact, they appreciated their daughter-in-law's behavior in their hearts, but people are selfish. Compared with the village chief, they cared more about the safety of their daughter-in-law Li Miaomiao.
Not to mention that the grandson needs his mother, if something happens to his daughter-in-law, how can they face their son in the underworld? They won’t be able to explain to their son when they see him there a hundred years later.
"Just remember this. It's not that I want you to watch someone die without helping, but I just want you to stop being so careless. We old couple just hope that everything goes well for you and your son."
Old Mrs. Pei is actually a sensible old lady, especially in front of Li Miaomiao.
Li Miaomiao's previous behavior was not entirely bad. It made people more aware of her limits. Old Mrs. Pei was also afraid that her nagging would make her daughter-in-law feel disgusted. What if she retaliated and went back to her old ways? The old couple would not be able to bear it.
Seeing that her mother-in-law had no intention of continuing, Li Miaomiao explained again to the old couple what she had said to her son.
"Mom, I went down to save people only because I was sure I would be fine. The ditch looked dark, but my eyesight is better than most people's, so I can actually see the general idea. Besides, you know, I have plenty of strength now. Even if I can't save the village chief, I will be fine."
"I save people only when I can ensure my own safety. I still have a son to raise. He only has me as his mother, and I will never abandon him!"
When Li Miaomiao said this, she also looked at Pei Yifan specifically.
Pei Yifan, who later turned evil in the book, was abandoned by his original owner, which became an obsession in his heart. Whenever he encountered similar things, he would have a desire for destruction and then do many evil things. It was all because of this.
This was also said to Pei Yifan. Although she did not abandon Pei Yifan like the original owner, the original owner's actions had left a shadow on the little guy. She would say this more often in the future, so that the little guy would leave traces in his heart again and again, and finally remember it in his heart.
"So, before I do anything, I always think twice. Today's events may seem dangerous, but in reality, they're just a bit of hardship for me. After all, human lives are at stake. Uncle Degen takes such good care of us mother and son every day, so how could I just sit back and watch? Normally, I wouldn't bother to care about other people's affairs!"
Li Miaomiao's previous words were not as useful as the last one. Whether it was the old couple of the Pei family or Pei Yifan, after hearing the last sentence, they all nodded in agreement.
The daughter-in-law is not such a great person. She just worries too much.
My mother is not that kind of person. Although she has changed now, she probably doesn't have such a spirit of dedication. He is just too worried. Fortunately, he likes such a mother. He loves his mother even though she is so selfish.
Li Miaomiao didn't expect her to say so much. The last sentence was a bit ridiculous. The original owner was really a devil.
