q "Aunt Zhao, you have quite a few relatives!"
"Yeah, there's nothing we can do about it. They're all relatives from my hometown. They're sick and come here for treatment. You can't just ignore it now that you know about it, right?"
"What's wrong with you?"
Zhao Xingmei made up a lie: "It's nothing serious, just an appendectomy."
"Okay, go and take care of the patient."
"Okay, okay, I'll be on my way now. See you later!"
It was originally a very ordinary conversation. The reason why Zhao Xingmei made up a story was that she didn't want to mention the fact that her son accidentally hit someone.
It’s not a good thing after all, so don’t mention it if you can.
Unexpectedly, her actions led to more speculations and assumptions among those who were interested.
...
...
"Hey, hey, hey, I think what the Jiang family boss said is true! Otherwise, Aunt Zhao couldn't have lied like that."
"Who said it wasn't true? You said you injured your legs and feet. What's so wrong with that? You're afraid people will get suspicious, so you deliberately said you had your appendix removed."
"The Jiang family is very lively now."
Zhao Xingmei knew nothing about this and went to the guesthouse with a thermos bucket to take care of Hao Ying.
Hao Ying didn't mention anything about what happened during the day. She ate when there was food and drank when there was drink.
After eating and drinking, he made a request: "Aunt Zhao, after you meet Jiang Xun tonight, ask her to come see me. I have something to tell him."
"Just tell me if you have anything to say and I'll pass it on to you."
"That won't do." Hao Ying disagreed, "I want to see him. If this matter is handled well, I may leave in the next two days and go back to my hometown. If this matter is not handled well, I will stay here for ten days or half a month until I can get out of bed."
"Okay! If you say so, I'll go back now. When my son gets off work, I'll let him come to see you." Zhao Xingmei couldn't wait for her to leave.
As long as she can leave quickly, isn't it just to see Jiang Xun?
This is easy!
Zhao Xingmei came back from the guesthouse and just as she reached the door of her house, she ran into Jiang Xun who had just returned from the factory.
"Why did you come back so late today? Did you work overtime again?"
"Yes, it's almost the end of the year and the factory is a bit busy. Mom, where have you been?"
Zhao Xingmei sighed: "Isn't it because she went to serve that living ancestor? That girl is definitely not an easy person to deal with! She has been giving me a hard time these past two days..."
Jiang Xun frowned: "Otherwise, don't go. I'll think of another way."
He is a man, so naturally he cannot take care of Hao Ying.
There are many inconveniences here.
He and Hao Ying had clearly just met, but someone with connections in the factory had already introduced them to each other.
If he had to take care of Hao Ying again, wouldn't it be troublesome?
"What can you do? I think you should just forget it. Yulian and your aunt have been taking care of the second brother and his wife, and Jiang Sui is busy making clothes and preparing for the wedding. I am the only one who has nothing to do in the family."
"Then I can't let you torture yourself like this all the time, can I?" Jiang Xun said.
"It will only take a day or two. Come on, don't go home yet. Come with me to see her first. She said she wants to talk to you. If you can come to an agreement, she might leave tomorrow."
"Mom, it's not good for me to go to the guesthouse to look for her in the middle of the night." Jiang Xun had already thought about these things, and it was better to avoid them if possible. "Can you go and ask her for me what she wants to do?"
"What's wrong with that? I'm with you, what else can outsiders say? Come on, you have to send her away quickly, otherwise when Li Li comes back, she will be tired already, and she will be upset because of this kind of thing." Zhao Xingmei didn't say anything and grabbed Jiang Xun's arm and left.
Ye Li is the apple of Jiang Xun's eye. There is no point in saying anything else. As long as Ye Li is mentioned, it works immediately.
So Jiang Xun and Zhao Xingmei went to the guesthouse to see what else Hao Ying had to say.
"I heard you wanted to see me. Tell me, what do you want to tell me?"
As soon as he saw Hao Ying, Jiang Xun asked straight to the point without saying a single unnecessary word.
Hao Ying said unhappily: "Since you're here, why don't you ask how they are doing?"
"If you have something to say, just say it. If not, I'll leave."
"Don't go, I said."
It was indeed very uncomfortable for Hao Ying to lie here. The bedding in this guesthouse had been used by so many people and no one knew how often it was washed.
She grew up under her mother's careful care, so how could she have ever experienced such hardships?
While torturing Zhao Xingmei, he was actually torturing himself.
"You have to compensate me thirty yuan for my medical expenses, lost wages, nutrition expenses, and my mental damages. Give me the money and I will leave tomorrow. This place is so uncomfortable that I can't live here for even a day."
"That's it?" Jiang Xun was a little incredulous.
"Yes, that's it." Hao Ying nodded, "Why? Do you think the compensation is too little or too much? If you think it's too little, you can compensate me a little more."
Jiang Xun said: "I think it's quite appropriate, let's do it."
"Okay, you can give me the money tonight or tomorrow."
Anyway, she has achieved her goal, so it doesn't matter if she leaves a day earlier or later.
"That's great, girl. You should have a good rest. We'll go back and get the money now." Zhao Xingmei didn't expect the matter to be resolved so easily. In order to prevent any further complications, she decided to go get the money overnight and send people away early.
After the mother and son left the guesthouse, Hao Ying came downstairs on crutches and said to a young man at the front desk who was checking in a room, "Do me a favor. If anyone asks, just say I had a miscarriage yesterday and came here to rest."
The young man at the front desk was surprised. Are there still people who ruin their own reputation like this in this day and age?
However, after seeing the money Hao Ying took out, he immediately agreed.
"Don't worry, I'll answer like this whenever someone asks."
"Thank you." Hao Ying went upstairs happily.
There will always be some good people who will do this. She believes that the evil in human nature is just waiting for people to come.
It doesn’t matter even if Jiang Xun doesn’t fall for her beauty trap, the rumor has spread anyway.
Over time, three people make a tiger, and gossip can make gold melt. Even something that is not true will become true.
At that time, Jiang Xun's reputation was ruined, and Meng Guanglei lost a competitor.
Zhao Xingmei and Jiang Xun returned to the slum, and as soon as they entered the door, Aunt Liang came to greet them.
"Oh, Aunt Zhao, things are bad! I don't know why so many rumors came out today. They said Jiang Xun had an affair with a woman outside and she has moved to the guesthouse. They said she broke her legs, but in fact she had a miscarriage and asked you to take care of her during the confinement period."
Zhao Xingmei almost fainted when she heard this: "Which bastard is spreading this rumor?"
"I don't know where it came from, but people are talking about it all over the street."
"What a sin, what a sin, quickly give her the money and let her go, every day she stays will cause more trouble.
Jiang Xun stopped her immediately: "Mom, if you take the money and leave, this matter will be unclear. Now, we can't let her go, we have to let her stay."
"It's still hard to explain if you stay. Who knows what kind of trouble it will cause you!"
Jiang Xun pursed his lips and said, "There is only one person who can solve this problem right now."
"who?"
"Li Li."
Zhao Xingmei didn't have time to think about it anymore, and hurriedly urged Jiang Xun: "Go and pick up Li Li early tomorrow morning, and let her deal with that woman!"
