Xu Haicheng hesitated for a while, and finally pleaded, "Mom, Lingling still has paint on her body. How can she bear to go to the investigation in this state?"
At Xu Haicheng's pleading, the police saved his face and sent him to the hospital to clean his body from the paint first.
The weather was cold, and she was wearing many clothes, so more of the body was stained, but because her hair was also stained, Du Ling had to shave her head, which was more painful than killing her.
What made her even more uncomfortable was that the Xu family seemed to really stop controlling her. She was taken away for interrogation, but the police showed no mercy during the interrogation and frightened her into handing over everything.
The store was renovated in one day, and the sales of the goods in the store were also very poor, so Jiang Li simply closed the store for three days to rest and went to Haicheng to purchase goods.
Qi Shaoqiang got a wolf puppy from an acquaintance and planted glass shards on the wall to prevent anyone from having bad intentions and trying to steal things from the store next time.
Every time he purchases goods and chooses models, he has to take a train. Jiang Li wants to have a big brother, but this thing costs more than 20,000 yuan, so he has to ask someone to buy it. In the end, I settled for the next best thing and installed a phone.
Hearing the news that the clothing store was set on fire, Zhu Zhu and Chen Jing were concerned about Jiang Li in the dormitory.
"How can there be such a vicious person! Burning down someone's warehouse, is this a crime of robbery and murder?"
"Has the criminal been caught? What do the police say?"
Jiang Li nodded. "We'll sentence him accordingly if he's caught."
In theory, it was because of the Xu family's connections that Du Ling didn't have to suffer so much after all the arrangements.
But Fang Peilan said that if Xu Haicheng dared to interfere in this matter and affect the police's investigation, she would kick him out of the Xu family.
Because of this incident, Fang Peilan and Jiang Li became closer. When Jiang Li has time, she will go to the old house to have dinner with Fang Peilan.
"I suggest that, in order to surprise Li Zi, we go to Limin Hotel for dinner today. The new lamb hotpot with scallion sesame sauce is absolutely delicious. I'll treat you!"
Wang Hong pinched Zhu Zhu's round face and said, "Why are you saying that you are overwhelmed by pears? I think you are greedy!"
Zhu Zhu pinched Wang Hong, and Wang Hong pretended to come over and pinch her. Zhu Zhu, with a puffy face, fell into Chen Jing's arms, and the three of them got into a fight.
Finally, they decided to have dinner at Limin Hotel. Jiang Li went home in advance and called the security department of the agricultural machinery factory, saying that she would go home for dinner. Of course, Qi Shaoqiang would definitely come to pick her up after class.
When I was about to leave, someone asked, "Why don't you see Sun Yulian?"
Zhu Zhu curled her lips, "Why call her? She'll just be a disappointment if she goes. Ignore her."
"Yeah, you forgot about the Mid-Autumn Festival. What did she say about you?"
Everyone in the dormitory likes Sun Yulian so much. At first, they thought she was gentle and kind, but after spending time with her, they always felt that she looked down on others.
Even though she had been admitted to university, she was only thinking about studying hard, trying to please her boyfriend, and even encouraging the girls in her dormitory to get married and have children as soon as possible.
Another time, Sun Yulian asked Zhu Zhu to go out for dinner, but she brought a boy with her, so the dinner with friends turned into a blind date.
That boy even spread the word around the school, saying that he was dating the daughter of the Party Committee Secretary, which made Zhu Zhu so angry that she jumped up and down, and from then on she was never happy when she saw Sun Yulian.
A few people had a hot pot with great noise, and when it came time to pay, the girls were willing to take advantage of others and paid their share. Only Chen Jing rubbed the corner of her clothes, feeling a little embarrassed.
Jiang Li used the excuse of going to the restroom to pay the bill, and received a lot of thanks and flying kisses. Chen Jing also breathed a sigh of relief.
To be honest, she didn't have the money to attend such gatherings, but they were all classmates in the same dormitory, and she always attended such dinners to seem more sociable.
The girls in the dormitory were all very nice. Knowing her family background, they deliberately gave her face and always rushed to pay for meals.
She didn't have much to give back, so she could only clean the dormitory more, get hot water for the girls, and bring them meals to show her appreciation.
"302λ†…Chen Jing, I have your trust!"
The girls returned to the bedroom laughing. Chen Jing opened the letter and her face changed immediately. She even burst into tears on the spot.
"Xiao Jing, what's wrong with you? Did something happen at home?"
Chen Jing spoke incoherently with sobs. Wang Hong snatched the letter and saw that it said, "Da Gen fainted while running at school. He was sent to the county hospital for examination and the doctor said he had congenital heart disease.
It is recommended to undergo surgery as soon as possible, and the surgery will cost five thousand yuan.
But the risks of surgery are too great, and doctors in the county dare not perform it, so they recommend going to a big city for treatment."
Dagen is Chen Jing's eldest son. He is eight years old now. He is smart and sensible. He always ranks first in the village primary school. Everyone in the dormitory knows him.
"Don't worry, call home and ask."
Zhu Zhu accompanied Chen Jing to make the call. The rest of the group looked worried. "We need to report this to the school and see if we can organize donations."
"Yes, there is also a scholarship selection. Let's go to the dormitory and register Xiaojing's name."
"I agree!"
"Then I will go find the teacher and report the situation."
"My mother knows someone in the pediatric department at the hospital. I'll go back today to ask about the situation."
Jiang Li found out about this the next day. Seeing the usually gentle Chen Jing's eyes swollen from crying, she had an idea.
"Xiao Jing, I have a job here, take a look if you're willing."
Chen Xianyun has always been the one making hair bands in the store. Jiang Li also makes them sometimes, but she is too busy and doesn't often visit.
So they thought of finding two people to do the job part-time. Chen Jing is very clever and can knit sweaters and embroider clothes. Making hair ties is not easy for her.
"I make hair bands for my shop, by the piece. I can't say I make a lot in a month, but at least a few dozen."
Before Jiang Li finished speaking, Chen Jing immediately agreed, "I do!"
After talking to her family over the phone last night, she decided to bring the child to Haicheng for surgery. Although she is now working part-time as a tutor outside her school hours, the income is very meager.
If she could have such a job, she wouldn't have to worry about rent and food expenses for her children, which would really solve her urgent needs.
"Don't worry, Xiao Jing. We have already informed your teacher of the situation, and he said he has applied for a scholarship for you."
"Yes, don't worry, there is strength in numbers. If each of us donates a little, we can always get enough for the surgery."
"Li Zi, thank you," Chen Jing cried uncontrollably and kept bowing and saying thank you to all her classmates.
