Chapter 14 Conflict



Ruan Jiaojiao thought that ten yuan was not too expensive, after all, she bought so many things.

She gave Uncle Li a deposit of five dollars and said that she would pay the remaining five dollars after the goods were finished and delivered.

Uncle Li took over and said, "I can make the kang right now, but I don't have all the furniture here. It will take a few days to finish. You can take the furniture I have already made back home."

Ruan Jiaojiao thought that her house was still empty. Even if she moved a table back, it wouldn't seem so empty.

Besides, she really needed some necessary furniture for emergency use.

Ruan Jiaojiao nodded, agreeing.

Uncle Li asked his son to move the furniture to the educated youth site, while he went to build a kang first.

Although Uncle Li's son is a carpenter, he is a tall and strong man with a dark face, like an honest farmer.

Ruan Jiaojiao smiled at him friendly.

When he saw Ruan Jiaojiao smiling at him, his face suddenly turned dark red, but because he was dark-skinned, no one noticed anything.

The group went to the educated youth site, and when Xiang Hongxia saw that Ruan Jiaojiao had already found someone.

Xiang Hongxia stepped forward and shouted, "Are you here to help her make the kang?"

Uncle Li was stunned by her tone, and when he came to his senses, he replied, "Yes, I'm here to help her build the kang. Why, do you want me to help you build the kang too?"

She raised her head proudly and said, "Yes, if you help me first, I'll give you an extra dollar."

Xiang Hongxia chose the small room purely for comfort. But when she actually saw the shabby and small room, she was about to go crazy.

She had never seen such a dilapidated house before. If you didn't know, you would think it was a house for beggars.

She then thought that there was no kang now, so where should she sleep?

That's why she and Ruan Jiaojiao were fighting over who would hit the kang first.

Just as Ruan Jiaojiao was about to fight back, Uncle Li's son spoke up first: "It was this educated youth who approached us first. Why are you still cutting in line?"

Xiang Hongxia was furious when she heard this. She searched her pockets, threw two yuan at him, and said angrily: "Didn't I say I'll add more money? What else do you want? The money is not enough, right? Then I'll add two yuan."

It was the first time that Uncle Ye’s son had seen such a person. How could he throw money at someone?

Wang Gang and Uncle Ye were stunned, thinking that this girl was too rich.

Faced with Xiang Hongxia's behavior of throwing money at her, Uncle Ye shook his head and remained unmoved. He said, "Girl, it was this educated youth who approached us first. How about this? My son can also make a kang. Let him make it for you."

Xiang Hongxia's face suddenly turned red, and she was so angry that she ran to her room without even caring about the two dollars.

But when she looked at the room, she started crying again, shouting in her heart, "I want my parents, I want to go back to the city."

Uncle Ye’s son had a confused look on his face, and couldn’t help but wonder if he had just bullied this female educated youth?

Ruan Jiaojiao fell silent after seeing Xiang Hongxia's series of bold moves.

She had thought Xiang Hongxia was quite clever, just a little spoiled, but...

Ruan Jiaojiao didn't say much and led Uncle Ye and his son to her room.

Uncle Ye looked at the structure of Ruan Jiaojiao's room and wondered where to build the kang.

After he had thought it through, he asked his son to find a few people to bring the materials and tools.

After everything arrived, Uncle Li said to Ruan Jiaojiao, "Your kang will probably take a few days, so you should find a place to sleep first."

Ruan Jiaojiao nodded and put the package in the big room.

Li Chunyan, who lived in the big room, probably guessed that Ruan Jiaojiao was coming to live with her, so she vacated the bed where her things were placed.

Ruan Jiaojiao cleaned up simply and then made the bed.

After a while, Ruan Jiaojiao made a temporary bed.

She also borrowed two bowls from an old educated youth, pretended to take out a bag of sugar from the package, added sugar to the water, and poured a bowl of water for Uncle Li and his son from time to time.

After Uncle Li and his son drank the sugary water, they thought that Ruan Zhiqing was an honest man, so they worked even harder.

When Uncle Li and his son were about to leave, Ruan Jiaojiao even saw them off to the door.

Uncle Li's son was reluctant to leave and just stared at her, acting shy like a grown-up girl.

He seemed to have finally mustered up the courage and said to Ruan Jiaojiao, "My name is Li Jianye."

After saying this, he ran away quickly, even leaving his old father behind.

Uncle Ye looked at Ruan Jiaojiao, sighed and left.

Confused, Ruan Jiaojiao returned to her temporary residence in a daze.

At the same time, Song Qingfeng, who saw this scene, had an amused look on his face.

Because there was no place to sleep in Xiang Hongxia's small room, Li Lu called her into the big room and asked her to stay there for the time being.

When Xiang Hongxia saw Ruan Jiaojiao in the big room, she rolled her eyes and snorted.

Seeing this, Li Lu quickly explained: "Ruan Zhiqing, please don't be angry. Hongxia was just spoiled by her parents."

Ruan Jiaojiao just smiled and said, "I'm not angry. I actually think she's cute."

When Xiang Hongxia heard these words, her face immediately turned red, and it was hard to tell whether the expression on her face was shame or anger.

Li Lu looked at Ruan Jiaojiao's half-smile, her face turned pale, and then she stopped talking.

Ruan Jiaojiao didn't pay attention to her expression. After all, she knew very well what she was thinking. She just wanted others to hate Xiang Hongxia.

But she didn't want her to get what she wanted. After all, Xiang Hongxia was just a little stupid, while Li Lu was a venomous snake.

Because she had seen Li Lu sometimes look at Xiang Hongxia with jealousy in her eyes, she might have thought she had hidden it well.

Ruan Jiaojiao didn't want to care about these things, as long as she didn't set her sights on them.

But Ruan Jiaojiao didn't know that sometimes she wouldn't plot against you unless you provoke her.

But even if Ruan Jiaojiao knew, she wouldn't care. After all, as long as the gap exists, the jealousy will always exist.

Ruan Jiaojiao lay on the bed, checking her space with her consciousness. Looking at the piles of supplies, she felt very satisfied.

After all, this was the capital that made her rich in the 1980s.

Ruan Jiaojiao slept soundly all night, while Song Qingfeng in another small room dreamed of a smiling face, smiling at him...

So much so that the next day, when Song Qingfeng saw Ruan Jiaojiao, his eyes couldn't help but follow her.

Song Qingfeng didn't know why, but he felt an inexplicable throbbing in his heart and always wanted to look at her more.

Ruan Jiaojiao noticed something was wrong early in the morning. She felt like there was always a pair of fiery eyes staring at her.

But when she looked back, she couldn't tell who that person was.

Ruan Jiaojiao felt a little uneasy and always felt a little scary. She felt like someone was watching her, but she couldn't find out who it was.

This feeling of being out of control made Ruan Jiaojiao feel a little uncomfortable.
