Chapter 41 Lin Xiaoyu, you are shameless. You date Zhang Tiejun just to eat a popsicle.



"Hahaha……"

Many people laughed, and Zhao Siyu even covered her mouth with her hands and laughed so hard that her body shook.

Lin Xiaoyu said loudly: "It was bought by your mom! You were ignorant and misunderstood your mom before, so you thought your mom was not good to you."

"In fact, your mother is the best to you and loves you the most! Not only does she buy you new shoes, she also buys you fried dough sticks for breakfast every morning and gives you one dollar pocket money every week." As she spoke, she took out the money and showed it to everyone.

"Wang Meng, don't be jealous and slander me just because you don't have new shoes to wear and you can wear your brother's Liberation Shoes."

Wang Meng's defense broke down. "Who is jealous of you? Your mother doesn't like you."

Zhao Siyu's pupils shrank when she saw the handful of banknotes in Lin Xiaoyu's hand. She didn't even have a penny of pocket money.

She felt uncomfortable when she thought that those who envied her for having so much pocket money would turn to envy Lin Xiaoyu.

Lin Xiaoyu: "Whoever is jealous knows. Your mother doesn't like you. Didn't you say before that your brother beat you and your mother helped your brother to scold you? You also said that the person you hate the most is your mother."

When Lin Xiaoyu was ridiculed by her classmates, she would choose to walk away quietly. If she couldn't walk away, she would endure it silently. She never refuted and was afraid of quarreling with them.

But for some reason, facing the ridicule and slander today, she felt a surge of courage in her heart, and the words came out of her mouth very smoothly as soon as she opened her mouth.

She was surprised at how eloquent she was.

Hearing this, everyone looked at Wang Meng strangely.

That expression seemed to say: "She actually hates her own mother."

Wang Meng's eyes turned red with anger. "Lin Xiaoyu, you're going too far. This is a secret I told you before. How can you say it in front of so many people?"

Lin Xiaoyu blinked her bright eyes and asked back: "What I told you was a secret. I asked you not to tell anyone else, but you said it out?"

So what qualifications does Wang Meng have to blame her?

"You..." Wang Meng choked, then pointed at Lin Xiaoyu and said, "Lin Xiaoyu, you are shameless. You dated Zhang Tiejun just to eat a popsicle."

Lin Xiaoyu's expression froze, and she immediately retorted, "You are talking nonsense, I am not dating Zhang Tiejun!"

Eating popsicles has become a dark history of her life. Lin Xiaoyu doesn't want to eat popsicles anymore.

"You're not dating anyone, why are you eating popsicles?"

Lin Xiaoyu: "It was 놛 who treated 놖 to the meal, 놖 will pay 놛 back double!"

She originally wanted to return the money to Zhang Tiejun today, but maybe because Qin Ye beat 놛 so badly, 놛 did not come to school today.

"놖 is not in a relationship with 놛, 껩 can't be in a relationship with 놛, 놖놙 wants to study hard and get into college."

"What are you arguing about?" Teacher Ren Cheng, the head teacher of Class 1, came over.

Lin Xiaoyu suddenly had an idea and pointed at Wang Meng, "Teacher Cheng, Wang Meng spread rumors that she was dating Zhang Tiejun."

"..." Wang Meng was stunned. She didn't expect Lin Xiaoyu to complain to the teacher.

"She didn't spread rumors. She ate Zhang Tiejun's popsicle on her own. If she had nothing to do with Zhang Tiejun, why would Zhang Tiejun treat her to a popsicle?"

Lin Xiaoyu: "You have to treat yourself to popsicles! During the final exam of the first semester of the first year of high school, Teacher Cheng treated the top ten students in our class to popsicles. Does eating Teacher Cheng's popsicles mean that you are dating Teacher Cheng?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Teacher Cheng scolded with a stern face.

Lin Xiaoyu lowered her head and stuck out her tongue.

"Wang Meng, you don't study hard all day, but just make up rumors about your school. If you let me hear it again next time, I will call your parents to the school for a good talk." Teacher Cheng looked at Wang Meng seriously and said.

As the class teacher, I still know who are the good and honest students in the class.

Lin Xiaoyu is a student with good grades, timid and honest. As for Wang Meng, she didn't study well one day and just used a comb to comb the hair on her forehead during class.

Last Friday, I saw Wang Meng flirting with a boy from the next class on the way home from school. I didn't say anything to save her face.

She even spread rumors about Lin Xiaoyu!

The latter's face turned pale, and he lowered his head and admitted his mistake, "Teacher Cheng, I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again."

If her parents were called, she would forget about continuing her studies and her mother would beat her to death.

Besides, her family had no job for her. If she stopped studying, her mother would definitely let her get married right away.

"It's good that you know you're wrong." Teacher Cheng said, then looked at Lin Xiaoyu, "Your study attitude has been very good recently. You should keep it up and try to get into a good university and bring honor to our school."

Lin Xiaoyu is a very smart student, but she doesn't put much effort into her studies. If she works harder, she will have no problem getting into a good university that will bring honor to the school.

"I will." Lin Xiaoyu nodded.

Seeing that the teacher valued Lin Xiaoyu so much, Zhao Siyu stomped her feet, threw her braids away and walked away.

At noon today, there were much more dumplings than yesterday. Li Shuping sold thirty servings of dumplings.

Many people like the food so much that they buy it raw and take it home, then cook it together with their parents when they get home in the evening.

When she had nothing to do in the afternoon, Li Shuping would sit and make dumplings. With food to put the dumplings in, she could make more dumplings when she had nothing to do.

"Aunt Li." Qin Ye walked over with a backpack on his back.

"Oh, you're back." Li Shuping put the dumplings on the colander, patted the flour off her hands and stood up.

Qin Ye squatted on the ground and tried to put down the backpack on his back. Li Shuping reached out and helped him.

Qin Ye's forehead was covered with sweat after walking all the way with the backpack on his back. He raised his sleeve to wipe it, took out the remaining money from his pocket and handed it over.

"I spent 2.4 yuan on 10 eggs. I bought too many and asked my fellow villagers to give me two more, so I had 10 eggs in total. Carrots cost 1.5 cents per pound, and I bought 10 pounds at 15 cents. Leeks cost 1 cent per pound, and I bought 10 pounds at 10 cents."

Qin Ye's mouth was dry after speaking, so he swallowed and continued, "Ginger costs five cents a pound, and I bought five pounds for twenty-five cents, and five pounds of garlic for twenty-five cents. I spent three dollars and a half in total, and this is the remaining one dollar and seventy-five cents."

This was less than Li Shuping expected. She counted out eighty cents from the money Qin Ye brought back and handed it to 놛, "Thank you, this is your hard-earned money for making this trip today."

Qin Ye wiped his hands on his pants before reaching out to take the money and bowing to Li Shuping, "Thank you, Aunt Li."

"Have you had lunch? I'll make you a bowl of dumplings."

Qin Ye licked his lips, shook his head and said, "No, I've eaten..."

"Gu——" A long cry interrupted 놛's words, making 놛 blush.

Li Shuping couldn't help but smile, "Sit down and rest for a while, the dumplings will be ready soon."

"No need, go home and cook for yourself. I can't afford dumplings." Qin Ye lowered his head in embarrassment.

놛 worked hard for most of the day and visited several villages, only to earn 80 cents. Even if he spent 10 cents on dumplings, 놛 would not want to spend it, because the dumplings cost more than 10 cents.

"I don't want any money from you, just sit and wait." Li Shuping washed her hands, grabbed the freshly cooked dumplings and threw them into the pot. "They're already in the pot. It'll be a waste if you don't eat them." She didn't give Qin Ye a chance to refuse.

Qin Ye's eyes were filled with tears, and he lowered his head quickly, "Thank you, thank you, auntie."

There was an imperceptible tremor in his voice.

Since I was a child, this is the first time that someone has been so nice to me, asking me to do things for him, paying me, and even treating me to dumplings.

There were ten dumplings in a bowl, some stuffed with beef, some stuffed with leeks and eggs. Qin Ye ate while blinking his eyes, because tears always wanted to flow out of his eyes.

This bowl of dumplings is the most delicious thing I have ever eaten in my life, and I will remember it for the rest of my life.
