"He's an old man lying in bed waiting for money to treat his illness. Do you have any class brotherhood? You crushed his eggs. That's the money he used to save his life. If you have any conscience, you should compensate him today."
"Brother, let me tell you, if she crushes your eggs, you'll just go to her house and won't leave."
Qin Huai's words made the woman's arrogance subside a lot, and her tone of voice also softened.
Although they were also arresting speculators, the law was inseparable from human feelings. People immediately stood on Qin Huai's side and accused the red armbands of being inhumane. Several elderly people had already stepped forward to accuse them.
Qin Huai finished his mission and retreated to the back of the crowd. Suddenly, someone pulled him out and said, "I've been looking for you for a long time. Why are you here?"
When he came out, he saw Qin Dashu, who was panting. He took out some money from his pocket, stuffed it into Qin Huai's pocket and said, "Don't let your mother see you. Go back and pay Xiaomi's tuition."
"Where did you get the money?"
"Don't worry about adult matters, kid. Go back quickly."
Qin Huai turned around and took a few steps hesitantly, but Qin Dashu stopped him and said, "Don't go yet. Come with me."

Qin Huai felt a sudden pang of pain in his heart, but then he thought of that terrible snowy night, and his heart suddenly hardened again.

Li Lan's voice rang out from behind, "You're talking like a human being. Who was it that just now, ignoring your meal and constantly following me around? You followed me to the kitchen, and you followed me to the bed. You're someone who never cooks, yet you shamelessly scrubbed me for a little money, practically kneeling down before me. I couldn't resist your coaxing and you took the money, and you just ran off here. You're such a loser."
After scolding her, she looked at Qin Huai with pride and said, "You said this is the last time. Don't come to me again. I'm not your mother. I don't owe you anything."
"I remember." Qin Huai's voice was still very calm, and it seemed that no emotion could be heard.
Li Lan was stunned for a moment, then turned and left. However, Qin Dashu did not leave. Qin Huai looked at him and said, "Since Xiaomi's tuition has been paid, I will leave. You should go back and eat early. Don't get angry because of us."
