Probably because of the price cut, plus the fact that the test papers were different from the last time, after the price spread in the town and the village, Meng Qidi was extremely busy. At around 4 o'clock, she had actually sold out all the test papers, so she could finish work early...
She packed up her things and while closing the door, she threw everything into the space before locking the door and leaving.
The little girl was tired from playing and fell asleep on Meng Qidi.
"Falling asleep?" Wang Jinhua was sweeping the yard. When she saw the two men coming back, she quickly picked them up and sent them back to the house.
Meng Qidi washed her hands in the canal, and went into the water to dig up a piece of lotus root. She planned to stir-fry it and eat it in the evening, and also make some cold dishes.
After washing off the mud and preparing to go into the house, Meng Qidi paused and looked suspiciously at Old Man Zhao, who was holding a pair of leather shoes with a sullen face, "Did you buy shoes?"
The old man angrily threw the shoes on the stone table, "Bullshit, who knows where this came from? Why do you have to throw it at the gate of the courtyard?"
"This door?" Meng Qidi asked. You know, she just came back and didn't see anyone along the way. Was it that she just walked in and someone threw it right after she entered?
"Of course, didn't you see it? Isn't it for your man?"
"That shouldn't be the case. Ling Xiao has never been given anything by anyone before. Besides, I entered the room five minutes earlier than you. He might have come here just for you."
Meng Qidi kindly reminded him, "Could these shoes be given by Ge Mei?" What a coincidence?
Meng Qidi's eyes fell on the shoes in the old man's hand. The more she looked at them, the more she thought it was possible...
The old man was stunned for a moment, glanced at the shoes in his hand, and suddenly felt that they were a little hot...
Meng Qidi didn't laugh at him, "That's fine, just keep it. Anyway, I don't know who gave it to me."
The other party must be coming for the old man. Since we don't know who it is, there's no need to worry about repaying the favor. It's free, so why not take it?
The old man threw his shoes to her in disgust and went back to his room with his hands behind his back.
Meng Qidi doesn't care. Giving these shoes to anyone is not a favor...
The test paper was sold out in one day, so Meng Qidi stopped selling it and started to review seriously the next day.
This student is willing to study at home honestly, so Old Man Zhao feels relieved. He hopes this girl won't let him down at the critical moment.
In town.
"Hurry up, dawdling is just wasting time."
Luo Xia pulled Ling Jinyue hard with a bad tone.
"Mom, I don't feel well today and don't want to go."
Ling Jinyue's steps were unsteady. She was a little confused. When her brother was at home, her mother had always been very nice to her. Why did her mother suddenly treat her so badly after her brother left?
She was either beaten or scolded, and she was even locked up in the room and starved for several days. She was a little afraid of her...
"Don't give me too many tricks and don't waste my time." Luo Xia muttered impatiently.
"What use are you to? I told you to get married and find a wife for your brother, but you insisted on making trouble and following Meng Qidi. You can't even protect yourself. You're working for others for free. Bah! You have no shame."
"Mom...my sister-in-law gave me money, more than I get from working outside..." Ling Jinyue defended.
"You're still talking to her. How much money has she embezzled from our family?" Luo Xia pinched her daughter angrily.
"If you pinch me and scold me again, I won't go!" Ling Jinyue was pinched and felt pain. She jumped to avoid it and shouted anxiously.
"You're yelling at me?" Luo Xia was stunned for a moment, then started howling.
"I won't live any longer. I raised you and your sister with all my heart, and you treat me like this? Who am I doing this for? It's all for you. You ungrateful bastard, how dare you yell at me? I won't live any longer..."
Ling Jinyue took a deep breath and softened again, "Mom..."
The mother and daughter had a quarrel, and the bus slowly came over and the two got on in silence.
After a quarrel, neither of them took the initiative to speak during the journey...
If you want to see it, you have to go into the city. Ling Jinyue felt a little uneasy in her heart, "Mom, you haven't told me what you are going to do in the city."
"Your Aunt Ma found me a great old Chinese doctor who said he could cure my old cold legs. You can just go with me to see him."
Ling Jinyue asked suspiciously, "Is it reliable? Elder Zhao from Auntie's family is a good doctor. He cured Auntie's eyes."
"Bah! That family is so black-hearted. If I really go there for treatment, who knows how they will embezzle our money." Luo Xia looked annoyed.
Ling Jinyue opened his mouth, wanting to explain, but was afraid that if he tried to help her, his mother would start making a scene again...
The mother and daughter got off the car, and the county town was particularly lively.
Luo Xia pulled Ling Jinyue and squeezed out.
Ling Jinyue's wrist was pinched so hard that it hurt. She struggled quickly, "Mom, it hurts..."
"You're so delicate. Why does your brother depend on you so much? Does it hurt when you pull it?"
Luo Xia looked at her wrist with disgust, then let go unhappily.
"My hands hurt when I pull them. If you don't know me, you might think I'm a young lady from the city."
Luo Xia stopped muttering, glanced at her daughter, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes, her attitude softened this time, and she hugged her daughter.
"Jin Yue, I was wrong just now. I saw that your brother was getting old and didn't even have a partner, so I was anxious and did some stupid things. You won't blame me, right?"
Ling Jinyue felt a little uncomfortable being held by her, "Mom...I..."
Before Ling Jinyue could say anything, Luo Xia grabbed her and walked quickly, "Oh, it's a hot day, let's go to our relatives' house first."
Sun? Ling Jinyue looked up at the gray sky.
At around nine o'clock, Luo Xia took Ling Jinyue to a large courtyard.
This is a building allocated by a government agency. There are more than a dozen families living in the building. There are four or five apartment buildings, and the corridors are kept clean.
Being dragged upstairs, Ling Jinyue asked suspiciously, "Mom, why didn't I know that our family has such a rich relative?"
"Distant relative, you have been like a wild monkey since you were a child, and you never leave the house. How could you know that there is such a relative in your family?"
Luo Xia walked quickly, urging him along the way, "Hurry up, stop dawdling."
The relative that Luo Xia mentioned was on the third floor, so Luo Xia knocked on the door directly.
"Who is it?" The door was opened, and a woman poked her head out. She was slightly stunned when she saw Luo Xia, glanced at the girl next to her, and then smiled, "Mother-in-law? This is... Jin Yue? She looks so..."
"Cough cough!" Luo Xia coughed lightly.
Seeing the enthusiastic face of the woman who opened the door, Ling Jinyue felt more and more uneasy.
"What mother-in-law? Your daughter hasn't married into our family yet, so you'd better not ruin your daughter's reputation." Luo Xia said this to Ling Jinyue.
The woman was slightly stunned, then agreed, "Yes, yes, yes, look at my brain, it's too naive."
Ling Jinyue's mind suddenly exploded. Wasn't it said that they were distant relatives? Why was it that family...
Ling Jinyue watched the two of them greeting each other tacitly. She suddenly shook off Luo Xia's hand and ran downstairs.
The two women were stunned for a moment, then screamed, "Wu Mian, that damn girl ran away, chase her!"
