Chapter 489 The Best of Both Worlds
The courtyard became quiet.
Ying Sisi was slightly embarrassed: "I'll go out for a walk." She walked out.
Her gaze fell on Xie Cuilan's family, and there was a chill in her eyes. She didn't come back to her senses until the child ran up to her and took her hand.
"Mom, I'll stay with you."
"Aren't you tired after walking for most of the day?" Ying Sisi wanted to be alone.
"Have a good sleep and you'll feel better."
Ying Sisi couldn't say no to a child: "Oh."
The child seemed to know that she was in a bad mood and followed her quietly.
About ten meters away from the doorstep, Xie Cuilan, who was walking in front, suddenly turned around. Seeing Ying Sisi walking towards her, she excitedly turned back immediately.
"Si Si, have you figured it out?"
Ying Sisi's expression changed, her eyes turned cold, she nodded and took out her wallet to show off her wealth: "I've figured it out, I can give you the money."
Xie Cuilan's eyes widened. Her wallet was stuffed full of big unity banknotes, at least several hundred yuan.
The dead girl is really rich.
I have so much on me, how much do I need to put at home?
Her eyes were full of greed as she stared at the wallet and swallowed secretly: "It's good that you figured it out. Si Si, I didn't mean to say those words in front of your parents-in-law. It's just that our family is in financial difficulty. Your eldest brother is twenty-three or twenty-four years old and still hasn't found a wife. And your uncle is having an affair with Widow Hu and has squandered all our family fortune." Xie Cuilan began to complain.
Ying Shujian's face flushed. "Why are you talking to Si Si about this?"
"I insist." Xie Cuilan wiped her tears in grievance: "Si Si, you are the only one we can rely on now. Can you give us fifty yuan first to help us with the emergency?" She couldn't help but stretch out her hand.
Ying Sisi retreated imperceptibly and said readily, "Sure." She put forth all her strength and said, "I can give you all of this, but I have conditions."
"What conditions? I'll agree to anything you propose."
Ying Sisi pointed with her little hand and said, "From here, kowtow to my mother's grave and confess my mistake."
Xie Cuilan's expression froze, and then she became angry and said, "You, you!!"
Ying Sisi continued, "What do you mean by 'me'? You don't want to admit your mistake, right? Then there's nothing for us to talk about." She stuffed the money back, put the wallet in her trouser pocket, picked up the child again, and walked another way.
Xie Cuilan stamped her feet anxiously. Seeing the man walking further and further away, she ordered the men in the family to grab it.
Ying Shujian shrank his head. "Si Si is so strong, and my father-in-law is also tall and strong. If we make a noise and attract people here, won't we suffer losses? As the saying goes, a good man never suffers a loss in the short term. We need to think about the money in the long run."
"You've been strategizing all day, for over a decade, and you haven't come up with anything." Xie Cuilan ordered, "Before that little bitch returns to the city, you must get her money, no matter what. Otherwise, we'll have to live our lives to the bitter end."
“.”
After Ying Sisi's ears were purified.
The child asked, "Mom, aren't we supposed to show off our wealth? Why did you let that old woman know you're rich?"
Ying Sisi considered her words: "That's not absolute. I flaunt my wealth because I know I can protect my money. If you flaunt your wealth and someone sees you and grabs it, will you still have it?"
"Well, I'm still young now. I can't compete with others, so I can't show off my wealth."
Ying Sisi smiled: "I understand correctly. Walk this way and be careful."
"Are we looking for Grandma?"
"No, just strolling around." Ying Sisi led the child and strolled from one end of the village to the other.
Whose family are you closer to and who do you have a grudge against?
Before I knew it, it was getting dark and the temperature dropped a lot.
The child felt a little cold: "Mom, it's getting dark. Shall we go home? I want to put on some clothes. It's freezing cold."
Ying Sisi laughed at the child's voice, "You still feel the chill. Okay, let's go back."
The mother and daughter returned the same way.
After a while.
Ying Sisi heard a familiar voice behind her.
"Hello, fellow villager. Excuse me, are you from Black Wind Village?"
"Yeah, who are you looking for?" The old man looked them up and down in the dim moonlight. "You two look very unfamiliar to me, and your accent doesn't sound like we do here. Are you from out of town?"
One of them gave the fellow villager a pack of cigarettes and said, "Yes, we're looking for someone in the village called Ying Sisi. We're relatives from her in-laws' side, and we followed her here. We got lost. Where does she live?"
The old man sniffed the cigarette and answered whatever the other person asked. "Go straight ahead, over the hill, and the house is at the foot of the hill."
"Hey. Thanks, fellow."
“.”
Ying Sisi hid in the bushes nearby.
Through the gap, he confirmed from the figures that one of them was the man who pushed her car among the two people who stopped him on the road the day before yesterday.
I actually found her hometown.
She thought that with the help of Mr. Shen, she could avoid danger.
It seems that Mr. Shen is unreliable and I still have to rely on myself at critical moments.
Her mind was working rapidly, and soon she came up with a solution that would satisfy both parties.
She and the others walked away.
He whispered to the child, "Qing'an, I'm relying on you for protection today."
"Mom, I'm so young, how can I protect you?"
Ying Sisi: "Can you still sing the song I taught you before? Time passes and can never be returned. The past can only be savored."
"I can sing it, but my grandfather won't let me. He says my music is lascivious. I asked him what lascivious music was, and he cursed at me." The child felt aggrieved.
Ying Sisi touched her head to comfort her: "I will make it up to you later. Now, concentrate on listening to me. Go out and sing. If those two people come back and grab you and ask who taught you to sing, just say it was your mother."
Ying Sisi quickly relayed the question the other party might ask to the child. "Qing'an, do you remember it?"
The child nodded: "I can remember it."
"Okay, now you do as I say, go over there and sing as loud as you can."
"Yes!" After the child agreed, the cat quietly crawled out of the grass and walked and sang in the direction of Xie Cuilan's house as Ying Sisi said.
The mountain road is quiet.
When they heard the singing, they stopped immediately.
This song was introduced from outside. It is against regulations for ordinary people to sing it. Only the second generation of rich and powerful families can sing it without fear. Judging from the sound, it is sung by a child.
According to the information they have, Ying Sisi adopted a child.
Could it be that Ying Sisi is nearby?
They walked over.
Spot the child and block her path.
The two people were like a mountain in front of the child. She was so scared that she stepped back and sat down on the ground.
"Little girl, who taught you the song?" one of them asked in a rough voice.
"Be gentle with the child. Girl, who taught you the song you sang just now?" Another person changed his tone to a gentle one.
The child was stunned for a long time before she remembered what Ying Sisi had told her. She stood up and brushed off the dirt on her body. Her grandmother said that her clothes were too dirty and she would be beaten. She said, "My mother taught me that. Uncle, who are you? Why did you suddenly come over to scare me?"
"What's your mother's name?"
"Daughter-in-law, Sisi, Dad, Grandpa and Grandma always call her that. Do you know her?"
