Chapter 130: Do these two women have money?
"Xiuyun, have you seen that red and black striped tie?" a male voice came over.
Ma Xiuyun told Deng Xiuzhen that they would talk next time and hurried back.
The two of them had more contact after that. Ma Xiuyun was a outspoken person, so Deng Xiuzhen soon knew the composition of her family: her mother-in-law passed away due to illness the year before last, and her father-in-law Kang Xinyi, now 62 years old, was a retired teacher from Beijing No. 6 Middle School.
My elder brother Kang Rongzhong is also a teacher at Beijing No. 6 Middle School, teaching mathematics. He is 41 years old and has a child studying in the United States. His wife has been accompanying him for two years.
Ma Xiuyun’s husband is Kang Rongli. The couple used to do business in Dongguan Village. Because they were deceived, they lost all their assets and also owed money. Then the courtyard house in their home was used to pay off the debts, and then the whole family moved out and rented a house.
My son Kang Siqiang has just been admitted to Kyoto Normal University and is preparing to enroll.
I also have a younger sister, Kang Lingli, who is a nurse. She is 28 years old, unmarried, has unique ideas, and pursues platonic love.
Ma Xiuyun is an optimistic and generous person. She did not complain or become pessimistic when her business failed. Instead, she sold all her property to repay the debts immediately and actively encouraged her husband to try his luck, saying that he would definitely make a comeback.
She goes to help out at the breakfast shop at the entrance of the alley at six o'clock every morning. After coming back at nine o'clock, she has to wash clothes for everyone in the family, cook lunch and dinner for everyone in the family, and clean the house. She is as busy as a top.
Accompanying Deng Xiuzhen for a walk was just a polite remark; it was impossible for me to really go.
Before school started, Deng Xiuzhen and Wen Jing checked in at some famous attractions in Kyoto, and then went to the famous Dongguan Village.
There are many items that are rarely seen in Pucheng, such as surveillance cameras and certain types of mobile phones.
Seeing the surveillance camera, Deng Xiuzhen thought of Zhao Shuliang again. She didn't know whether he had come out or not, and was wondering when to go see him.
Deng Xiuzhen planned to buy a mobile phone for herself and Wen Jing, and was hesitating whether to buy a Motorola or a Nokia.
"Hi, what a coincidence, you are shopping here too?" a middle-aged man greeted Deng Xiuzhen.
Deng Xiuzhen couldn't remember who this person was for a moment, so she just smiled awkwardly and didn't say anything.
"I'm from the same courtyard as you. I live in the east room. Do you remember me?" The visitor was very enthusiastic.
"Oh, I remember now. It's you. I'm so sorry." Deng Xiuzhen remembered who the other person was. It was the person who just glanced at her and then turned and left when she went there on the first day.
I encountered this situation twice more later, but the other party ignored me.
Deng Xiuzhen felt very strange as to why the other party would take the initiative to say hello in such a busy place.
"Do you want to buy a mobile phone?" the other party asked.
"We..." Wen Jing just opened her mouth, but was gently touched by Deng Xiuzhen. She cleverly changed the subject and said, "Let's take a look at the novelty. I heard that thing can replace the telephone. Is it true?"
"Yeah, that's called a mobile phone. It can really replace a telephone. It's much better than a telephone. A telephone can only be fixed at home, but this can be carried around.
There are many novel things here. If you want to buy anything, you can find me. We are neighbors. I promise to give you the cheapest price. The quality can be guaranteed. "The other party said, handing Deng Xiuzhen a business card.
Deng Xiuzhen took it and saw that it was printed with "Huaying Store Marketing Manager Liu Wenkai". She smiled and said politely, "Okay, I'll contact you if I need anything."
Turning a corner, Wen Jing quietly asked, "Mom, aren't we buying a mobile phone? He can help us get a cheaper price, why don't we buy it from him?"
Deng Xiuzhen still looked around, pretending to let Wen Jing look at the items next to her and said, "Wen Jing, go shopping first, and we'll talk about this later."
Wen Jing understood immediately, and the two of them pretended to watch the fun and wonder as they looked over.
After they sat down in a corner of a small restaurant and made sure that no one could hear them talking, Deng Xiuzhen said, "Wen Jing, you have to remember that money has always been a motivator. Many people are not necessarily bad people, but they often cannot stand the test of money.
Mom doesn't think they are bad people, but we are just mother and daughter. If people knew we had money and wanted to take advantage of us, we wouldn't be able to defend ourselves. There's no need to put ourselves in danger."
"Okay, I get it. This is what you taught me. You should not have the intention to harm others, but you should always be on guard against others. A mobile phone costs more than 3,000 yuan. If we buy two phones from him, there is a chance that he won't think we are rich. What's more, I will be living on campus when school starts, and you will be alone here, which will be even more unsafe." Wen Jing planned to keep a low profile in the future.
"Do these mother and daughter have money?" Li Lizhen asked Liu Wenkai.
"Judging from the way they are dressed, they should not have money. But when they came here, they looked at that high-priced Motorola mobile phone for a while and even tried to use it. I don't believe them if they say they don't want to buy it! How can they not have money to buy a mobile phone that costs more than three thousand yuan?" Liu Wenkai lowered his head slightly, lowered his eyelids, clenched his four fingers, and hooked his chin with his thumb, thinking carefully.
"We're next door, we can't run away, let's observe first. A few more people are coming over there, let's go and take a look!" Li Lizhen said, and without waiting for Liu Wenkai to respond, she squeezed over.
A few days later, Wenjing started school and moved to the school.
Deng Xiuzhen went to the police station to look for Zhao Shuliang, but the police said that Zhao Shuliang had been taken away a long time ago and they didn't know where he had gone.
Deng Xiuzhen guessed that he was taken away by Zheng Ying. Zheng Ying wanted Zhao Shuliang to help her with something and would definitely not treat him unfairly.
It was no big deal for her to find Zhao Shuliang, but she didn't dare to find Zheng Ying easily. So she chose to give up.
After that, Deng Xiuzhen would go out to buy some daily necessities regularly, and usually stay in her room with the door closed, either tending to the vegetable garden or practicing the facial care she had learned in her previous life. Kyoto has a lot of wind and sand, and the air is dry, which is quite harmful to the skin.
Since you are idle anyway, you might as well take good care of your health.
"Xiuzhen, your skin is so good!" It has to be said that Deng Xiuzhen's facial care is effective. When she went out that day, she met Li Lizhen, which caused Li Lizhen to exclaim in surprise.
Ma Xiuyun looked up when she heard that, and her reaction was even more exaggerated. She jumped in front of Deng Xiuzhen in two steps, touched her face and said, "Wow, it's so smooth, just like a freshly peeled boiled egg, white, tender, smooth, and chewy!"
"Xiuzhen, what skin care products do you use?" Li Lizhen asked Deng Xiuzhen while pulling her aside.
Deng Xiuzhen did not hold back, but explained in detail the recipe ingredients, preparation methods and details. All the women in the yard who had not gone out gathered around. Even the door of the north room, which was usually closed, was opened a crack to secretly watch the excitement outside.
When Kang Rongzhong came in, several women were sitting around Deng Xiuzhen, listening to her talk and writing prescriptions with a pen. The slanting sunlight shone through the eaves and fell on her face. Her fair and delicate skin was like smooth brocade, and even the hair could be clearly distinguished.
He suddenly felt that life was peaceful and the suppressed irritability in his heart suddenly dissipated.
