Chapter 550: Attitude of Seeking Help
After eating a bowl of soup and two buns, Tian Caihong finally regained some strength.
The lady who owned the wonton shop came over to talk to her, but she was too lazy to respond.
All Tian Caihong was thinking about was where the money went.
When he left, he didn't even say a polite word.
She thought for a long time but couldn't remember where she lost the silver.
She first went to the place where Wang Xingwang rented a house, and found the ground was bare without even a hair.
She left in disappointment, and she didn't dare go back to the corner where the old beggar was.
I had no choice but to walk aimlessly on the street again.
After much thought, she decided that it would be best to return to Dahe Village first.
After returning, Zhang Defu would just scold him a few times, which is better than living on the streets.
But she was troubled about how to get back to Dahe Village.
If she walked back, it would probably take her a whole day given her strength.
If it was in the morning, it would be fine. If I return in the afternoon, I'm afraid I'll have to spend the night on the road.
Thinking of the dark night, Tian Caihong was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat.
No, we absolutely cannot walk back.
But she had no money on her, what should she do?
So, she decided to talk to the coachman first to see if he could give her the money after she got home.
Although there is no money left at home, the worst that can happen is that we can borrow some from other families.
But before Tian Caihong could go forward and talk to the drivers, they, as if they had agreed, waved their hands and chased her away, "Go away, you crazy woman, go where it's cool."
At this time, the old beggar came out from nowhere and stepped forward to hold Tian Caihong's hand, "Old woman, I finally found you."
Tian Caihong was so scared that she ran away.
Tian Caihong ran until she was exhausted, and only then did she dare to stop in a crowded place.
She was breathing heavily, hating herself for going out today.
After she calmed down, she suddenly remembered a place: Zhang Juexia was in the county town. She decided to go find Zhang Juexia now.
She found a friendly-looking person on the street, asked for directions, and walked towards the Shengxia Soap Shop with firm steps.
Tian Caihong stood at the door of Shengxia Soap Shop, tidied her messy hair and walked in.
The soap shop clerk was slightly startled when he saw Tian Caihong, but soon he showed a professional smile and stood in front of Tian Caihong, "Sir, what can I do for you?"
Tian Caihong, who had always been treated coldly, straightened her spine immediately when she heard such a pleasant voice, "Call your boss."
The young clerk was dumbfounded. Usually, people who came into the shop were here to buy goods, so why was today's visit so special?
He didn't know how to respond, so he had to ask Tian Caihong to wait.
He gritted his teeth and prepared to go into the inner room to ask Manager Li what to do about this matter.
Tian Caihong thought he was going to run away, so she revealed her identity and said, "I am your boss's mother, please let your boss come out immediately.
Otherwise, I will make a scene in your shop, saying that your boss has become rich and no longer recognizes me as his mother."
The young man was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and ran to the inner room at a trot, "Boss, it's bad, there's a crazy woman outside, she says she's the boss's mother.
She said that if our boss didn't come out to see her, she would make a scene in the shop."
Li Le glared at the boy and said, "You are so impatient, what are you talking about?
She said, which boss's mother is she?"
The young man shook his head in confusion, "I didn't ask?"
Then he said pitifully, "Boss, how about I go and ask again?"
Li Le stopped him and said, "Go call Beilin and Erzhuang over, I'll let them recognize each other.
Tell me, what is going on every day?"
Ye Beilin and Zhang Erzhuang, who were busy entertaining customers, ran in confused.
The two of them reviewed what they had done in the past two days in their minds and checked with each other. They both felt that they had done nothing wrong!
Ye Beilin asked Zhang Erzhuang, "Erzhuang, tell me, what does the shopkeeper want us to do?"
Zhang Erzhuang scratched his forehead and said, "How should I know?"
"Let's go, we'll know when we get there."
"That's all we can do."
Li Le lifted the door curtain from the inner room and looked outside. After Ye Beilin and Zhang Erzhuang came in, they were about to speak, but were stopped by Li Le.
"Come here, both of you, and take a look at the man outside. Do you know him?"
Ye Beilin took a step forward and looked outside. "Boss, I don't know this person. Who is this person?"
"She said she was the boss's mother."
After Li Le finished speaking, he stared at Zhang Erzhuang. Zhang Erzhuang understood and quickly glanced outside. He sighed and said, "Boss, I know this guy.
She really didn’t lie, she is my sister’s stepmother.”
"I knew it was a stepmother. How could a real mother have the heart to destroy her own daughter's business?
Erzhuang, go out and ask her what's going on.
Also, if she must see the boss, just tell her that the boss is in Qingfeng City and is not at home."
Zhang Erzhuang nodded, "Boss, I know what to do."
Tian Caihong was getting impatient and was about to shout at the top of her lungs when Zhang Erzhuang came out.
When Tian Caihong saw Zhang Erzhuang, she felt like she had seen a savior. She stepped forward and grabbed his hand, "Erzhuang, why is it you?
Where is Zhang Juexia?"
Zhang Erzhuang pulled his hand out of Tian Caihong's hand with great effort. In order not to affect the business of the shop, he prepared to pull Tian Caihong aside to talk.
Tian Caihong refused to give in, "Er Zhuang, let me ask you, where is Zhang Juexia?
If she doesn't come out to see me, I'll just stay in the shop.
Anyway, I have a thick skin and I don’t mind being embarrassed.”
"Aunt, my sister is not at home. She and her brother-in-law went to Qingfeng City."
"Er Zhuang, do you also look down on your aunt and know how to lie to her?
I'm telling you, go find Zhang Juexia right now and tell her that as long as she doesn't mind delaying the business at the shop, she can avoid seeing me."
Zhang Erzhuang felt helpless when he saw Tian Caihong making such a fuss. He explained to her again, "My brother-in-law is going to Qingfeng City to take part in the provincial examination. My sister and brother-in-law went to Qingfeng City early this morning. Aunt, if you don't believe me, I can't do anything about it.
Our shopkeeper just said that, he doesn't know you anyway, and if I can't persuade you to leave, he'll report you to the police."
When she heard that the police had been notified, Tian Caihong was indeed a little scared.
"Er Zhuang, you keep calling them sister and brother-in-law. If someone doesn't know, they would think they are your real sister and brother-in-law!"
Zhang Erzhuang was anxious, "Auntie, if you have nothing else to do, I'll leave too."
"Don't......"
Tian Caihong grabbed Zhang Erzhuang and said pitifully, "Erzhuang, please help my aunt. Someone has taken away my money.
Now my aunt wants to go home, but she has no money.
Can you give me some money so I can go home?"
Zhang Erzhuang complained to Tian Caihong, "Auntie, is this how you ask for help?"
