Chapter 92 Chapter 92 Comparison
When she said this, her eyes drifted towards Lu Jianjun. Hongwu's looks were simply incomparable to Lu Jianjun's. If they were to rate the two, Lu Jianjun would get 8 points and Hongwu would only get 3 points. The contrast was so tragic. Shu Meilan snorted in her heart. She thought, although the man Shu Niannian found had some money, he looked like a nouveau riche and was not at the same level as Lu Jianjun, who had a profound family background.
Thinking of this, she raised her head proudly again.
Hongwu had just started working with Shu Niannian, and he didn't know about the grudge between Shu Meilan and Shu Niannian, but even so, Hongwu could feel the malice in Shu Meilan's words.
Hong Wu's face was dark, and he said righteously: "Madam, please don't talk nonsense. I am just Mr. Shu's bodyguard."
In this era, the separation between men and women is very strict. Whether it is for his and Shu Niannian's reputation, or for the high salary of 200 yuan per month, he can't let anyone talk nonsense!
The murderous aura that suddenly erupted from Hongwu frightened Shu Meilan so much that she took a step back immediately.
But she still grasped the key point in Hongwu's words, "Bodyguard? What bodyguard? Shu Niannian works as a clerk in a traditional Chinese medicine health center in Haicheng. Why does she need a bodyguard? Where does she get the money to hire a bodyguard?"
Shu Meilan stared at Shu Niannian, wanting Shu Niannian to give her an explanation.
Shu Niannian didn't want to pay attention to Shu Meilan. She thought Shu Meilan was sick. Everyone should live their own life. What job she did or whether she hired a bodyguard or not, what did it have to do with her, Shu Meilan?
Instead of staring at others every day, it is better to find a way to live your own life.
However, Shu Niannian did not tell these words to Shu Meilan, because Shu Meilan only lived in her own world. She would not listen to what others said, but would think that others had bad intentions.
However, Shu Meilan stretched out her face for her to hit, and she would feel a little sorry for Shu Meilan if she didn't hit her.
Shu Niannian said with a smile: "Who told you that I'm a clerk? That's your own wishful thinking. I'm just a clerk. In fact, I'm a partner of that store. I've made a lot of money in the past half month. You asked me why I hired a bodyguard? Then let me tell you, the reason why we rich people hire bodyguards is very simple. First, to protect our lives. After all, my life is very valuable now. Second, to free our hands. You see, we took the train back together. You didn't have a bodyguard, so you could only carry your luggage by yourself. But it's different for me. I have a bodyguard, so I can travel light. I sit in my seat and sleep with empty hands. All my luggage is with the bodyguard. You carry a few boxes of peach cakes and candies to visit relatives. Don't you feel tired? I went home leisurely, with empty hands and a breeze under my feet, but look at how many gifts I bought? Not only food, but also clothes."
As she spoke, Shu Niannian casually picked up a beautiful gift box. After opening it, she found a wool knitted coat inside. It was caramel-colored and large in size. It felt soft and thin to the touch. The texture was different from that of ordinary wool sweaters. Shu Niannian picked it up and compared it to Li Guifen's body, smiling sweetly, "Mom, this is pure wool. It's thin, warm and not stressful. You can wear it when the weather gets cooler in a month."
Li Guifen was an elder who never spoiled the fun, especially for Shu Niannian. The sweater stuck to her back, and within a few seconds, she was sweating profusely. But Li Guifen didn't complain at all. She didn't complain about why Shu Niannian bought her a sweater in the middle of summer, nor did she complain about Shu Niannian's waste of money. She just said with relief, "I said I wanted to enjoy your blessing, but I didn't expect it to come so soon! I've never worn a sweater in my life. I only heard people say that only rich people in the city can wear such sweaters. Why are you arranging it for me now?"
Shu Niannian raised her chin proudly, "Of course! Hey, actually this is nothing, I even bought you a pearl necklace!"
Shu Niannian casually picked up a long pink box from the ground. The moment she opened it, Li Guifen exclaimed, "This is the legendary pearl necklace, so bright and round!"
Shu Niannian was amused by Li Guifen's adjectives. It was also the first time she heard someone use "really bright and really round" to describe the beauty of a pearl necklace.
Well, Li Guifen is a simple country girl, she doesn’t have those beautiful words, but that doesn’t prevent this pearl necklace from blinding the eyes of the crowd of onlookers around her.
When the villagers saw Shu Niannian returning to the village, she started buying pork legs and placed a large number of gifts at her doorstep. Her heroic act successfully attracted the simple and frugal neighbors.
"Oh my, where did Nian Nian get her money from? Why is she so generous?"
"Gui Fen is enjoying her life! Hey, I've long said that Gui Fen is a blessed person!"
"That's because Nian Nian is filial. Some children are not filial. Even if they marry into a wealthy family, they still don't buy good things for their parents. Nian Nian is a very honest child. Look at her. She doesn't even have a pearl necklace herself, but she bought one for Guifen first. Oh, what a filial child she is!"
The aunties and aunties who had received peach cakes and candies from Shu Niannian at the entrance of the village were now praising Shu Niannian as much as they could, and they gave Shu Niannian another wave of candies because of her praise.
Shu Meilan looked at the pearl necklace in Li Guifen's hand. The pearls were round and full, emitting a warm fluorescent light. She didn't even need to get close to take a closer look to know that it was a priceless treasure.
Shu Meilan couldn't stop feeling jealous. She originally thought that if she married Lu Jianjun, she would be able to live the good life she had always dreamed of and would be able to step on Shu Niannian under her feet. Who knew that in the end she would still not be as good as Shu Niannian?
But the most urgent task now is to find out where Shu Niannian's money comes from?
Hiring a bodyguard and buying a pearl necklace is definitely not as simple as just getting lucky and picking up a fortune.
Shu Meilan looked up into the distance and suddenly remembered what Shu Niannian said: How do you know I am a clerk? Maybe I am the owner of this store?
Shu Meilan took a step back in shock, No! impossible!
Yang Guihua heard the noise outside and happily went out to see the fun, but she ended up seeing her own fun.
Looking at the gifts piled up on the floor at the door of the main room, and the pearl necklace that Li Guifen was wearing around her neck, Yang Guihua muttered sourly, "I want a pearl necklace, too."
Shu Meilan went into the yard silently. Why did Shu Niannian always make her look like a joke? !
"Mom, tell me the truth, how are Shu Niannian's grades? Can she get into college?"
The gifts have been compared, but the knowledge cannot be compared anymore!
Shu Niannian grabbed Yang Guihua's arm, desperately wanting an answer.
Yang Guihua did not let Shu Meilan down. She patted her chest and assured her, "Don't worry, I have found out everything about this matter. Shu Niannian's grades are as bad as shit. She always ranks last in every exam. There is no way she can get into college."
After getting Yang Guihua's assurance, Shu Meilan let out a deep breath and felt her stuffy chest relieved a little.
However, just as she was happy for a meal, Shu Niannian received her admission letter.
Shu Niannian was the first person in Shujia Village to be admitted to university. The village party secretary was so happy that he bought a plate of firecrackers at his own expense and led the postman to Shu Niannian's doorstep.
At that time, Shu Niannian and her family were having dinner. When Shu Niannian heard the sound of firecrackers at the door, she more or less guessed what was going on.
But Li Guifen was shocked. She was about to curse who was setting off firecrackers at her doorstep when she saw the village party secretary leading the postman into the yard amid the crackling of firecrackers.
The village party secretary Shu Hongqi couldn't stop smiling and shouted in a loud voice, "Guifen! Your family has a college student, and our village has a golden phoenix!"
Shu Hongqi's voice was full of energy and had great penetrating power. After the sound of firecrackers stopped, Shu Hongqi's words were clearly heard by everyone present.
Li Guifen wanted to curse, but her mouth twisted, and she couldn't help but burst out in surprise, "Village Party Secretary, are you serious?! My Nian Nian really got into college?!"
Even though Shu Niannian had always vowed that she would definitely be admitted to university, Li Guifen did not take it seriously. After all, whether Shu Niannian could be admitted to university or not, she was still her most beloved daughter, and she did not want to put pressure on Shu Niannian.
However, when she heard the news from the village party secretary that Shu Niannian was admitted to university, Li Guifen was still very excited!
Shu Hongqi took a large envelope from the postman and handed it to Shu Liguifen, saying with a smile, "How could it be fake?! Where did it come from? Haicheng University of Traditional Chinese Medicine! At this time, Haicheng University of Traditional Chinese Medicine sent a letter to Nian Nian. If it's not an admission letter, what else could it be?!"
The postman also added, "Based on my experience delivering letters during this period, this is the acceptance letter!"
