As he spoke, the boss got up and walked towards his tricycle.
Before getting on the bus, he told Ye Beiping, "Keep an eye on the stall for me, I'll be back in a bit."
"Okay."
Ye Beiping nodded happily, stuffed the money into his pocket, and plopped down in the seat where the boss had just been sitting.
Watching the boss leisurely ride away on his tricycle.
Sure enough, less than twenty minutes later.
The boss returned on a tricycle with an electric fan strapped to the back.
As soon as the car came to a stop, the boss got out and started untying the knot.
"Young man, come and take a look."
Upon hearing this, Ye Beiping got up and went over to take a look.
The electric fan looks old; it's obviously been used for a long time.
The shop owner explained, "This fan was originally broken, but I fixed it later. If you'd like, you can pay another 25 yuan and take it."
In this situation, Ye Beiping couldn't be picky anymore. He took out the 25 yuan he had just received, handed it to the shopkeeper, and said, "Thank you."
"Hehe, you're welcome." The shopkeeper chuckled as he took the money and unloaded the electric fan from the tricycle. "If you have any problems in the future, just bring it to me for repairs."
He paused after speaking, patted his forehead, and said, "Your father-in-law can fix things too, I'd forgotten. But if you need any parts, you can come to me."
Judging from this, the boss still has the resources to get the parts.
Ye Beiping naturally nodded in response with a smile, thinking that he might need such connections in the future.
After exchanging pleasantries and being offered a cigarette, Ye Beiping left, carrying the pork in his left hand and the electric fan in his right.
He smiled all the way, feeling that Su Xinyi could finally get a good night's sleep tonight.
I got home and just opened the door.
Ye Beiping happily exclaimed, "Xinyi, look what I brought back for you!"
Um?
There was no response.
"Xinyi?" Ye Beiping put down the electric fan and the meat in his hand and went into the room to look for her.
They searched the bathroom and kitchen, but couldn't find Su Xinyi.
"Where did you go?"
Ye Beiping was a little confused. He had told her not to wander off when he left home, but how could she have disappeared in just two hours?
He sighed and plopped down on the sofa.
I sat for a while.
She then remembered that she had run into Grandma Qiu when she went out, and had told her that she could chat with Su Xinyi to relieve her boredom.
Thinking of it, Ye Beiping immediately got up and went out.
Just as I stepped out of the house, I remembered the two pounds of meat on the table. I turned back, grabbed the meat, and then ran downstairs.
Knock knock knock!
Knock knock knock!
Ye Beiping was banging on Grandma Qiu's door.
Soon after, Grandma Qiu's cursing voice came from inside: "Who is it? You guys knock on the door like this every day, it'll break in no time, you'll have to pay me back!"
Forehead......
Ye Beiping at the door looked embarrassed; it seemed that Grandma Qiu was very bothered by people knocking on her door.
Creak!
The door opened, and Grandma Qiu saw Ye Beiping standing in the doorway, carrying a bag in his hand. She glanced at him and said, "You still know how to come back? I thought you ran away, leaving your wife alone at home."
"Forehead......"
Ye Beiping smiled slightly awkwardly: "Um, Grandma Qiu, is Xinyi here?"
"If it's not here, where else could it be? I, an old lady, have to personally invite you. You two have quite the nerve." Grandma Qiu rolled her eyes at Ye Beiping, her tone anything but polite, and immediately launched into a tirade.
After saying that, she felt it was pointless and turned to sit down on the solid wood sofa in the living room.
Sitting next to him was Su Xinyi, who was smiling as she looked at Ye Beiping, seemingly quite pleased that her husband had been scolded.
"Xinyi, I was so worried when I got back and didn't see you." Ye Beiping breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Su Xinyi, his tone slightly reproachful.
Before Su Xinyi could explain anything, Grandma Qiu retorted, "If you're worried, why don't you take your wife with you when you go out? What's the point of leaving him alone at home?"
"I......"
Ye Beiping didn't know how to explain it.
The next moment, Grandma Qiu didn't hold back either. She noticed the bag in the other person's hand and pouted, "Alright, hurry up and cook. Do you want to starve the old lady and your wife to death?"
"I......"
Ye Beiping was speechless after being rebuked, and could only purse his lips and glance at Su Xinyi before reluctantly walking into the kitchen.
Seeing Ye Beiping's aggrieved expression, Su Xinyi turned to Grandma Qiu and smiled.
Knowing that Grandma Qiu was a kind-hearted person despite her cold exterior, and that she took such good care of her, Su Xinyi was no longer afraid of her at all, and even acted playfully and affectionately.
Aside from being aggressive towards Ye Beiping, Grandma Qiu actually gets along well with Ye Beiping in private.
Although Su Xinyi didn't know why Grandma Qiu seemed to have endless things to say to her husband, she could assure her that the old lady meant no harm.
