Gao Liman’s mother-in-law?
Qiao Baozhu curled her lips in disdain, frowned and asked Ji Hehua in a low voice.
"Did the old woman give Damaner a hard time?"
Ji Hehua was very good at observing people's words and expressions. Hearing Qiao Baozhu's tone, she immediately became angry and stood up for Gao Liman.
"As soon as the old lady came into the house, she said that she hadn't finished her housework and asked Damaner to go home quickly and stop playing here."
Ji Hehua followed Qiao Baozhu's example and affectionately called Gao Liman by her nickname.
Qiao Baozhu remained expressionless, but nodded secretly at Ji Hehua's cleverness.
In her previous life, when she was on the farm, she was always successful in social situations because of her sweet talk and generosity.
After leaving the farm, Qiao Baozhu found it difficult to make friends or do business in the city for a few years. She always had trouble fitting in even when opportunities were right in front of her, and she even offended people without knowing why.
Later, I met a noble man, who gave me advice and helped me make rapid progress in dealing with human relationships.
Like her, Ji Hehua grew up in the countryside and has a low level of education and vision.
But she is born to speak, read colors and use her brain. Qiao Baozhu thinks that Ji Hehua just doesn't have the opportunity to go out and try her luck. If she can go out and see the world in the future, it won't be difficult for her to become a public relations manager with her talent.
"No matter how difficult her mother-in-law is, with you and Sister Zhang here, Damaner won't suffer any loss."
Qiao Baozhu looked at Ji Hehua with a smile, looking very confident.
Ji Hehua was so excited and happy that someone trusted her so much. But when she thought about how she hadn't done much in the morning, she felt ashamed of Qiao Baozhu's trust.
Blushing, she said embarrassedly, "I didn't do anything. It was Sister Zhang who scolded her. She made her mother-in-law speechless and left in disgrace."
Qiao Baozhu had already imagined the angry look of Grandma Gao Liman and sighed softly.
"It's not easy for Daman'er to end up with such a loser."
In her previous life, she also knew that Gao Liman was not living a good life, that her mother-in-law was powerful and always bullied her, and that her husband was honest and cowardly and would not stand out from the crowd.
But Qiao Baozhu never thought of helping her, because she felt that Gao Liman was married in this village, and her parents' home was only two streets away. If she had any difficulties, her mother would take care of her, and there was no need for her, an outsider, to meddle in other people's affairs.
At that time, all her energy was spent on helping Zhao Haiyang to succeed, so she had no time to listen to her friend's complaints.
It was not until I heard that Gao Liman committed suicide by taking medicine that I realized how cold-hearted I was.
Her friend had clearly sent out a distress signal, but Qiao Baozhu didn't take it seriously.
This time, Qiao Baozhu no longer cares about the life and death of the rubbish man. She just wants to make more money to let her adoptive parents live a good life as soon as possible, and then change the fate of her sisters.
"What are you talking about?"
Gao Liman had seen Qiao Baozhu coming in a long time ago, but she was just busy explaining the details of handicrafts to the educated youth.
After finishing her talk, Gao Liman came over and sat down next to Qiao Baozhu.
Seeing her forced smile, Qiao Baozhu smiled and handed the egg to Gao Liman: "Eat it, I brought it from home, not stolen from the cafeteria."
After saying that, Qiao Baozhu made a face at Gao Liman, just like she did when they were little.
Gao Liman looked at Qiao Baozhu trying hard to make her happy, her nose felt sore and tears almost fell.
"I'm not afraid of the one from the cafeteria. It was you who stole it anyway."
Gao Liman held back her tears and snatched the egg from Qiao Baozhu. While peeling the egg, she spoke carelessly.
"My mother-in-law came to me this morning and made me so angry that I didn't even have lunch."
Qiao Baozhu pretended not to know and said in surprise, "Why did she come to you to make trouble?"
Ji Hehua heard the two people chatting and tactfully moved aside. Just then someone else came in, and Ji Hehua smiled and said to them, "You two eat first, I'll go and entertain them."
As she spoke, she took a potato from the stove and handed it to Qiao Baozhu, then went to explain to the educated youth.
Seeing Ji Hehua leave, Gao Liman started talking.
"You don't know my mother-in-law, she's always looking for trouble because she didn't give birth to a child."
Gao Liman was holding her anger for a long time, wanting to complain but was too embarrassed to tell Ji Hehua. Finally, when Qiao Baozhu came, she was able to vent her grievances.
"I just told my family about my job last night. You don't know how upset my sister-in-law was. They quarreled in the east room for half the night last night, humph."
Qiao Baozhu had just finished lunch and was not hungry, so she handed the potatoes in her hand to Gao Liman.
"So your mother-in-law is here to pick on you because of her eldest daughter-in-law?"
Gao Liman took the potato and took a big bite.
He gnashed his teeth and said, "Bah, you shameless things. How dare they think so!"
