"What can you do with 50 cents? You should keep it for yourself!" Mo Qian said with a look of disdain.
"You! Forget it!" Zhang Tao then put the fifty cents back into his pocket.
"I already told you, next time you go to Li Meizi's house, wash her bedding." After saying that, Zhang Tao left angrily without waiting for Mo Qian's reply.
Only after Zhang Tao left did Ya Ya and Hu Zi dare to speak.
However, there was still a hint of worry on his face.
"Mother," Ya Ya called out weakly to Mo Qian.
"It's alright, don't worry." Mo Qian then reassured the original owner's children.
After leaving home, Zhang Tao had nowhere to go, so he wandered around until he arrived at Li Qiuju's doorstep.
When I came to my senses, I realized that I was already standing at the door of Li Qiuju's house.
Just as she was about to leave, she was spotted by Li Qiuju's eldest son, who was playing in the snow in the yard.
"Uncle Zhang, you're here? Come in quickly." Li Qiuju's eldest son said to Zhang Tao with a happy expression.
Whenever Uncle Zhang comes, he usually brings them delicious food, and he looks forward to Uncle Zhang coming every day.
"Mom, Uncle Zhang is here." After talking to Zhang Tao, Li Qiuju's eldest son called out to Li Qiuju inside the house.
Upon hearing the sound, Li Qiuju came out of the house.
"Brother Zhang, did you leave something behind?" Li Qiuju asked with a puzzled look.
After all, Zhang Tao had only been gone a short while before returning, which was quite unusual.
"Look at me, it's freezing cold, let's not talk outside, let's come inside." Li Qiuju then welcomed Zhang Tao into the house.
"Nothing was left behind."
Zhang Tao said this after entering the house.
"What's wrong? Brother Zhang doesn't look well," Li Qiuju asked worriedly after handing Zhang Tao a cup of hot tea.
"Sigh, it's all because your sister-in-law is always causing trouble!"
"If only she were half as considerate as you," Zhang Tao said, warming his hands with a cup of hot tea, a hint of helplessness on his face.
"What's going on? What happened?"
“Your sister-in-law usually seems like a kind person,” Li Qiuju asked immediately afterward.
"Stop praising her, she's very stubborn!"
"Forget it, I won't tell you about these troubles, so as not to affect your mood," Zhang Tao said, with an attitude of concern for Li Qiuju.
"Is it because your sister-in-law was unhappy when she found out you brought me charcoal this morning?" Li Qiuju turned her head and thought for a moment before asking.
"It's also my fault. I didn't stop you from taking it back if you didn't want to."
"I've made my sister-in-law angry, it's all my fault," Li Qiuju said with a guilty expression.
A hint of melancholy made Li Qiuju's face appear even more beautiful.
"How can you blame yourself? It's your sister-in-law who's too stingy."
"Brother Han saved my life, so it's only right that I take care of you."
"Don't blame yourself," Zhang Tao said quickly after seeing Li Qiuju's sad expression.
There was still a hint of heartache on her face.
"It's also my fault; I made my sister-in-law angry."
"It's nothing, that's just how your sister-in-law is. She gets angry over the smallest things, it's none of your business."
"It's my fault too. I should have known better than to come here. I've made you sad." Zhang Tao said regretfully, looking helpless.
"Brother Zhang, please don't say that. I'm so happy that you came here. If it weren't for Brother Zhang taking care of us, I don't know how we three would survive."
“If you have any worries in the future, Brother Zhang, come here as much as possible and tell me. I can analyze it for you and comfort you.”
"Don't keep it to yourself, it's not good for your health," Li Qiuju quickly said after hearing Zhang Tao's words.
There was still a hint of sincerity on his face.
"Alright, I'll have to trouble you from now on, Sister Li." Zhang Tao replied without hesitation when he heard Li Qiuju's words and looked at the beautiful and sincere face in front of him.
"It's no trouble at all. Brother Zhang has always taken good care of me, so it's only right that I accept his help," Li Qiuju replied, looking embarrassed.
Zhang Tao felt a little uncomfortable after seeing the blush on Li Qiuju's face.
Then, pretending nothing had happened, he took a sip of the tea in his hand.
Meanwhile, Mo Qian didn't care at all about Zhang Tao's departure.
After calming the two children down, I began to think about the current situation.
She didn't want to see Zhang Tao anymore.
There is no doubt that he was pushed out.
Since they are both in love, let's grant them their wish!
It's just a matter of timing.
By the time Zhang Tao returned, it was already getting dark.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Open the door!" After Zhang Tao entered the yard, he pushed the door, and when it wouldn't open, he banged on it.
"Go sleep in the west room," Mo Qian called out to Zhang Tao outside the door.
"I'm not going! I have a room to sleep in, why would I want to go to the west room!"
"Mo Qian, open the door for me!" Zhang Tao said, banging on the door again.
"From now on, I'll sleep with Ya Ya and Hu Zi, and you can sleep in the west room by yourself."
"You look down on me, so I'll just stay out of your way," Mo Qian said calmly.
"You're a man, you're not thinking of taking the house from me, are you?"
His tone carried a hint of sarcasm.
"You!" Despite Zhang Tao's prolonged knocking, Mo Qian showed no sign of yielding.
As the weather grew colder, Zhang Tao had no choice but to head towards the west room.
The west room was originally the room of two children, but as winter came, the two children moved in to live with the original owner and Zhang Tao.
The west wing has been uninhabited for months, and the house looks particularly desolate!
After Zhang Tao entered the west room, he immediately closed the door from the inside.
It was snowing outside, and the air was chilly.
Then, Zhang Tao immediately noticed the quilt and bedding on the bed, and it was then that he realized that Mo Qian had planned this all along!
I never intended for him to sleep in the east room!
Anger rose within me.
However, since the door to the east room was closed, he couldn't argue with Mo Qian, so he could only secretly plan to settle the score with her tomorrow.
Afterwards, suppressing her anger, she made the bed.
After laying out the blankets, I wrapped myself in my clothes and crawled into bed.
Although he was already covered with a blanket, Zhang Tao still felt the cold in the air.
However, there were only two blankets in the house, one of which was on him.
At this point, all he could do was wrap himself tightly in the blanket to keep warm, and after a while, he finally drifted off to sleep.
Zhang Tao, who was asleep at the time, naturally had no idea that there was a thick new quilt covering the room in the east!
