After handing Wu Qiao a note with a phone number on it, Chen Jingang left.
Looking at the other person's back as he walked further and further away, Wu Qiao suddenly felt that it was great to be reborn.
At this moment, someone tugged at Wu Qiao's sleeve.
"Sister, everyone has left. Don't look anymore. I'm hungry."
Wu Wei's timid voice suddenly came from behind. Although the little guy was fifteen years old this year, he was not as tall as Wu Qiao because of long-term malnutrition. He was very thin and dark.
Wu Qiao looked back at her brother, then took his hand and said, "Come on, I'll make you something delicious."
In the kitchen, Wu Qiao continued to make tomato noodles.
Seeing her daughter cooking seriously, Jiang Rong, who wanted to help, leaned against the door frame with relief, occasionally coughing uncomfortably.
"Mom... I'm enough in the kitchen, you go and have a rest."
Jiang Rong's asthma is very serious and it once affected her life. All the family debts were due to her mother's illness.
"Mom is fine, and you are okay."
Jiang Rong kept looking at her daughter. Her daughter had always been weak, shy, and afraid of meeting people since she was young. However, her behavior in the past few days seemed to have changed.
This change is actually very good, at least I don’t have to be as cowardly as her.
Wu Qiao also noticed the way his mother was looking at him. He was worried that she might have discovered something, but he remained calm and continued to make noodles.
"Those people from the Wu family left?"
Suddenly, Jiang Rong asked a question.
"Well, Chen Jingang sent him away. Mom... He also gave me a lot of money, and I... took it."
At this point, Wu Qiao walked into the house and handed the brown paper bag to his mother. "Although I didn't count it, I estimate there must be at least 20,000 yuan."
Jiang Rong frowned, dissatisfied with her daughter's decision, "You shouldn't take this money."
The man had ulterior motives and there was something wrong with the way he looked at his daughter.
Some things, once connected, cannot be severed.
"Mom, we owe so much money. After paying it off, there's nothing left. Besides, school is starting in the second half of the year, and my brother's school has a lot of fees to pay."
Although Wu Wei is young, he is extremely smart. He was in junior high school at the age of eleven and in the second year of high school at the age of fifteen.
Hearing her daughter's words, Jiang Rong sighed helplessly, "Forget it, forget it, it's all because of Mom's uselessness."
If her health hadn't been so bad, she wouldn't have had to let her daughter and son suffer the contempt of others all these years.
"Mom, don't worry, I will return the money to Chen Jingang."
In order to divert his attention, Wu Qiao pulled his mother to help him wash tomatoes and fry a few eggs.
There is not much food in stock at home, so we can only make some noodles, which are quite nutritious. My brother and I are both growing up, so we can't neglect it.
Especially his mother, thinking of this, Wu Qiao cut a few slices of ginger, sliced them and put them into the tomato and egg stew.
Eating some ginger is good for asthma.
Seeing her daughter being so attentive, Jiang Rong sighed again.
"Qiao'er, even though I paid back the money today, I've offended your grandfather's family. Have you thought about what to do next?"
Gai County is a small county. Because it is adjacent to the port city of Bincheng, it has a humid climate all year round and abundant vegetation. It is precisely because of this that Jiang Rong's allergic asthma has never been cured.
Because the place is small, there are only a few prominent families in the county town, and the Wu family is one of them.
If you offend the Wu family, some things will not work.
