"You actually collected them all?"
It's surprising that Wei Weiwei is quite capable; she managed to scrape together 500 yuan in such a short time.
When will you give me the remaining supplies?
In front of Wei Weiwei, Ruan Qiushui counted the money, and the amount matched.
"The blankets and clothes are all here. As for the grain, canned food, and milk powder, I'll figure out how to get them."
Most of the things are still there, only some food was eaten up on the train.
"You gave me something you wore and used, and you're just going to give it to me like this?"
She doesn't want something secondhand; who would want to be annoyed by it?
"So what do you want to do?"
Do we have to buy all new ones? How much would that cost?
"Give me the whole amount in cash, two hundred yuan."
Ruan Qiushui made a rough estimate.
"Ruan Qiushui, you are really very good."
Wei Weiwei stared intently at Ruan Qiushui, wishing she could tear her to pieces.
This is driving her to the brink of despair.
Her money, which was on the surface, was indeed stolen by a thief.
However, before she left for the countryside, she went to her parents' room when no one was home.
Since they were so heartless as to force her to go to the countryside, then none of them should have an easy time. She took all the money from the locked drawer and brought it to the Red Flag Brigade.
She gave Ruan Qiushui 500 out of a total of 700 yuan, and now she's asking her for another 200 yuan. So she has no money left for self-defense.
She was still thinking of coming to the countryside to start over, building a house and buying a piece of land.
"Just tell me whether you'll give it to me or not."
Ruan Qiushui shrugged.
If you can take 500 yuan so readily, you must have savings.
"I'll give it to you."
"But you have to give me a receipt, and you can't use that as an excuse to make things difficult for me in the future."
Even though Wei Weiwei was so angry that her hands were trembling, she had no choice but to compromise.
It was only while cleaning the pigsty these past few days that she understood Ruan Qiushui's status in the Hongqi Brigade.
Not only was her husband's uncle the brigade leader, but she was also the only doctor in several nearby brigades. She used her connections to establish a small workshop to benefit the brigade, and although the man she married was disabled, he received a large amount of veteran's pension.
I've heard that the Gu family not only has many men, but they're also very united. Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake; she can't afford to offend them.
"Sure, everything is negotiable once the money is in place."
A normal receipt isn't a defense, so what's there to be afraid of?
"for you."
Wei Weiwei opened a small box next to the bed and took out two hundred yuan from a hidden compartment.
Here's the receipt.
She always keeps paper and pen in her medical kit for writing prescriptions, and now she's using it to write a receipt.
She repeatedly noted on it how Wei Weiwei cheated and swindled away the supplies.
If Wei Weiwei tries to use the receipt for something, she'll be the first one to end up in jail.
"We've settled our accounts regarding the supplies."
I can stop feeling dizzy now and then, but I can manage to have some minor squabbles every now and then.
Are you sure you're even?
Will I faint again?
Wei Weiwei confirmed it again.
"We're even."
Ruan Qiushui nodded with a smile, preparing to go home for lunch.
I earned 700 yuan, and I'm in a great mood.
"Ruan Zhiqing, you're finally back."
Zhao Meimei stood at the entrance of the Gu family's house and, seeing Ruan Qiushui approach, quickly stepped forward.
"What's up?"
Ruan Qiushui frowned in annoyance. Why is he so persistent?
"Ruan Zhiqing, why didn't you come to the wedding banquet yesterday? Did you know that Zhiyu and I were getting married and were too embarrassed to come?"
Zhao Meimei approached Ruan Qiushui and began to engage in sexual intercourse.
If it weren't for the time she spent with Duan Zhiyu, during which he frequently mentioned Ruan Qiushui, she wouldn't have cared so much.
"Our relationship isn't good enough for us to attend each other's weddings."
With your character and Duan Zhiyu's morals, you still want to trick me into giving you a wedding gift? It's not like I have money to burn.
"Aren't you and Zhiyu both educated youth sent to the countryside? How come you're not on good terms? I heard you two used to have a few words together all the time. Are you too embarrassed to come?"
Zhao Meimei, like a mad dog, kept pressing her for answers.
"Too ashamed to come? Did I kill someone or commit arson? Or am I as blind as you to have fallen for a divorced man whose wife just died?"
"Zhao Meimei, do you know what kind of person you are right now? You're a complete jealous woman."
"I'm rich, beautiful, and have a capable, considerate, and handsome husband. Why would I be interested in a freak like Duan Zhiyu? Don't try to seduce me with that kind of guy, it makes me sick."
"I'm warning you one last time. If you try to drag me into this again because of Duan Zhiyu, I won't be polite."
"Instead of being suspicious here, you should go back and take good care of your man. If you're really worried that he's cheating on you, you might as well get a circumcision to cure him permanently."
Ugh, what bad luck to run into a mad dog in broad daylight!
"Zhao Meimei, please leave the Gu family immediately. You are not welcome in our family."
Gu Changfeng went to the brigade office to make a phone call, and when he came back, he saw Zhao Meimei bullying his wife.
Even though his wife is usually so good-tempered, she was so angry that her face turned red.
"Fine, fine, so you two are ganging up on me, aren't you?"
Zhao Meimei felt humiliated and was on the verge of tears.
"Get out of here. If you cause trouble for my wife again, you'll be in for a world of hurt."
He could leave Zhao Meimei to his wife to deal with at his own pace, but he could just do whatever he wanted to the accountant Zhao, who had no idea how to raise her daughter.
"Gu Changfeng, you're no longer in the army, you're just a wounded veteran, what are you so arrogant about?"
Zhao Meimei was so angry that she blurted out the words her father had repeatedly asked her to keep quiet.
As soon as she said it, Zhao Meimei regretted it.
Seeing Gu Changfeng looking like a jinx, her legs went weak.
"Try saying 'crippled' again."
Ruan Qiushui's iron slap came out and landed on Zhao Meimei's face, crisp and loud.
"Ruan Qiushui, you hit me?"
Zhao Meimei covered her face in disbelief.
"Why is it always the same sentence?"
The fight has already happened, why ask again? Isn't that obvious?
"Zhao Meimei, watch your mouth from now on, or you'll get more than just this one slap."
After making her harsh remarks, Ruan Qiushui turned around with an air of authority and took Gu Changfeng home.
"Ruan Qiushui, Gu Changfeng, you just wait."
Zhao Meimei burst into tears and went home to complain.
"Changfeng, why did I see Zhao Meimei run out of our house?"
When Xie Xiuying, Gu Guangrong, and the others arrived home one after another, they all saw Zhao Meimei crying and wailing.
“Zhao Meimei came to our doorstep and bullied us, but I chased her away.”
Gu Changfeng briefly explained what had happened to Xie Xiuying.
“Serves her right. If Zhao Meimei dares to come again, I’ll help you deal with her.”
When Gu Xiaoxiao heard that someone dared to bully her third sister-in-law, she wished she could immediately go and fight them.
"Watch how I argue with that old woman Liu Duoxi when I go to work this afternoon."
Accountant Zhao's wife later also joined the small workshop.
"Mom, make something nice for lunch, I'll go call Uncle over for lunch."
After Gu Changfeng finished speaking, he walked towards Gu Xianjin's house.
Ruan Qiushui immediately understood that it was time to replace the accountant of this brigade.
