"Little friend, this is not a place for you. Leave now."
Lin Wei asked, "Can't I even take a look?"
"Don't make things difficult for us. You kids obviously aren't here to buy stocks. It's so crowded in here, why bother joining in the fun? Jiangdu Road is right next door, go play over there."
Left with no other choice, Lin Wei had to agree.
After having a quick lunch with her younger brother, she packed some food for dinner and then went home with him.

Carrying a large pile of groceries, Lin Xiaomeng was stopped by someone as soon as she came out of the market.
It was Zhang Min, the neighbor who lived in the house on the left.
"Sister Meng, it's rare to see you carrying so many groceries."
Lin Xiaomeng laughed and said, "I used to be able to just mess around by myself, but now that two kids have come to visit, I still have to cook. It's their first time here, and I don't even know what they like to eat, so I can only buy a little bit of everything."
"Guests are guests, so we should treat them well. I heard your niece got into a university in Jiangcheng. Congratulations! Which university is it?"

"Yes, I was also wondering why she chose this major, but the admission notice has already been issued, so there's no point in discussing it. As long as she can read it, that's all that matters."
"But to be honest, there are a lot of boys in this major, which makes it easier to find a partner." At this point, Zhang Min looked around for a while and asked in a low voice, "Everyone knows that you went to arrange for your nephew to attend school on a temporary basis today."
Lin Xiaomeng frowned. "What's wrong? Someone has a problem again? But I don't need to say anything, I know it's probably all about the house."
“I didn’t realize what was going on when Xiao Wang was stirring things up yesterday, but I realized it when my wife said it. This house belongs to the company. Even if you don’t get it, it won’t go to your nephew or niece. The factory can just take it back.”
“But they’re making a scene because they think you’re easy to bully. Now that you’ve enrolled your nephew in school, they’ll have even more excuses to bully you. But I think your niece is quite capable. Do you think she’ll protect you?”
