Everyone in the family knew that Old Lady Wang had never brushed her teeth in her life. Her saliva had stained the steamed buns, and even if Zhao Xingjia and the other two were very hungry, they couldn't eat them.
They all turned their heads away in disgust.
When Zhao Youcai saw them coming back, he told Chen Zhenzhen, "Remember to wash and dry your grandma's bedding."
Then he turned around and walked out. This day was too bad, and he had to go find Shulan to comfort herself.
Chen Zhenzhen refused to wash. When she saw Zhao Youcai going out, she whispered in Zhao Xingjia's ear, asking him to follow Zhao Youcai.
Zhao Xingjia glanced at the biting cold wind outside and said, "I'm not going."
Chen Zhenzhen glared at him unhappily, then used the excuse of going to the restroom to go out to a state-owned restaurant alone to eat a bowl of clear soup noodles. She didn't even bring Zhao Yang with her for fear of being exposed.
She still had some money she had cheated from Zhao Xingfeng. A few days ago, Zhao Xingfeng asked her to deal with Zhao Xingmin. She provided a method, and Zhao Xingmin gave her 20 yuan and 100 yuan to bribe Zhang Guojie.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Guojie refused to do it for 100 yuan, he wanted 200 yuan.
She changed her mind and decided to quote a price of 300 yuan so that she could get the difference.
Unexpectedly, after she reported it, Zhao Xingfeng said that she would go home to discuss it with her aunt, and then sent the money to her the next day. Seeing that it was so easy, she should have reported more earlier.
In this way, she had a pocket money of one hundred and twenty yuan, which she hid in her underwear, hiding it very well.
Zhao Xingjia thought she had followed Zhao Youcai, and did not suspect anything when he saw she came back late. He just kept drinking hot water because he was hungry. Zhao Yang also cried out that he was hungry, but Chen Zhenzhen cruelly pretended not to hear.
Since it was Zhao Xingjia who treated her badly, she had to slowly let go of her feelings for Zhao Yang.
Zhao Youfu was thinking about the good idea that Old Lady Wang had given him. He knew some people from all walks of life in the casino. He asked Brother Hei to buy some sleeping pills and went to Wang Qiuju's house first to apologize to her humbly.
Wang Qiuju was reluctant to come back because she knew Zhao Youfu too well. He had a very high opinion of himself and was not someone who could tolerate such a thing. He might have set some trap.
Mrs. Wang said sarcastically: "She is so lucky that she has figured it out. She doesn't mind that you were married and had an abortion before, but you still took it away. She tried to coax you but you didn't go back. You are used to being a lady at home, right?"
Wang Jiahu was also filled with resentment towards this aunt who had caused his mother to be beaten by his grandmother: "Aunt, go back to your own home and don't come to ours."
Old Lady Yang couldn't bear to hit her grandson, so she angrily cursed:
"This is also your aunt's home. Why can't your aunt go back? I guarantee it was your mother who taught you the good things, but only the bad things. Have you forgotten that your aunt bought you candy and new clothes?"
Wang Qiuju could understand that her sister-in-law didn't welcome her, but she loved her nephew so much that she said with tears in her eyes, "I'll go back now."
Zhao Youfu wanted to ridicule her when he saw her being driven out by her parents' home, but he remembered his plan and forced a smile and spoke to her in a kind tone.
When he got home, he was even more considerate and poured water for Wang Qiuju. Wang Qiuju felt something was wrong and didn't want to drink it, but Zhao Youfu didn't urge her.
Anyway, the entire thermos of water contained sleeping pills, so even if she poured this cup, the next one would be the same.
"I'm going out for a walk."
Feeling that the time was almost up, Zhao Youfu returned home, stuffed the sleeping Wang Qiuju under the bed, and then went to find his eldest nephew Zhao Xingguo according to the address given by Old Mrs. Wang.
He knocked on the door of No. 8 Longyang Street.
Ma Xiulan opened the door: "Who is it?"
When she saw Zhao Youfu, she didn't look happy. This must be a case of the weasel paying a New Year's visit to the chicken, with no good intentions.
She closed the door directly, and Zhao Youfu stood in the middle of the door: "Sister-in-law, I just heard that Xingguo came back. I remembered that I was ignorant when I was young and bullied Xingguo. I know I was wrong now, and I want to apologize to him."
"First of all, I'm not your sister-in-law, so please don't call me that."
"Besides, Xingguo doesn't need your apology. Please leave."
Zhao Youfu had everything ready except for the male protagonist Zhao Xingguo. Of course, he was unwilling to give up. He shouted towards the door:
"Xingguo, I know I was wrong. I apologize to you. I will compensate you when you come out."
If Zhao Xingguo heard this, he would definitely come out. Who can resist money these days?
Seeing that he didn't listen, Ma Xiulan picked up the broom and chased him away: "Are you leaving or not? If you don't leave, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Zhao Youfu was driven away in a panic, but he did not give up. He kept circling around a hundred meters away. There was such a loud noise just now, but it was so quiet inside. Could it be that Zhao Xingguo was not at home?
With this idea in mind, he waited 50 meters away from Ma Xiu Lan's house. During this time, Ma Xiu Lan came out to look once. Fortunately, he got close to the door next door in time and there was a doorpost blocking it, so Ma Xiu Lan didn't notice.
He waited for a long time and was about to give up when he saw Zhao Xingguo and his three companions coming back.
"Xingguo, I'm your uncle. Lately, I've been thinking about our childhood and my conscience is bothering me. I've prepared some money for you as an apology. Let's go to my house for a few drinks."
He just didn't believe that Zhao Xingguo wasn't tempted by the money.
