"Just wait and see, you'll find out soon enough." Bling mysteriously kept her in suspense, then added, "I guarantee she'll never forget it, and she'll have no way to express her suffering."
Bling had no idea how unlike a good person he was looking at that moment.
Just kidding, all those years of surfing in the modern world weren't for nothing. She has plenty of ways to get back at someone, but she still needs to choose the one that's most effective at venting her anger, she thought, stroking her chin.
Seeing the little black girl like this, Sangshen knew that she wasn't thinking about anything healthy.
However, he liked it, because he wasn't exactly a good person either.
Avenging a wrong tenfold is a basic principle.
The two chatted for a while, and then the neighbors who came home from get off work saw that Bu Ling was awake and began to come over in waves to offer their condolences.
First to arrive were Aunt Tian and little Chen Cong. Aunt Tian brought two eggs, saying they would help her recover. Little Chen Cong offered five pieces of milk candy, which Bu Ling declined for a while, but eventually accepted.
Following them were Sister-in-law Xu and Sister-in-law Zhou, whose gift was particularly generous: a can of malted milk powder.
Malted milk powder isn't cheap; even with a coupon, it costs six yuan a can.
Bu Ling could tell at a glance that the two had come to apologize, so she didn't stand on ceremony, accepted the gifts, and indicated that the matter was over.
The culprit in this matter is Jiang Hua.
The two sisters-in-law's smiles definitely brightened up a lot.
Then came Sister Mo, who brought about half a pound of soybeans. Soybeans were considered a nutritious food in those days. She joined Bu Ling in scolding Jiang Hua before heading back.
Aunt Zhao also brought about half a pound of red dates, comforted Buling, and then went back.
The person who surprised Bu Ling the most was Widow Liu. She brought about two ounces of millet and came to Bu Ling's place to mock Aunt Shen and her daughter. After venting her resentment, she swayed away with her slender waist.
Bu Ling was both amused and exasperated. This woman must have come to thank her for beating up Jiang Hua.
Aunt Wu also sent some walnuts through Wu Yuanyuan. Aunt Wu's family is from a mountain village in Northeast China, and these things were sent by her younger brother; they're a rare commodity in the city.
Even Aunt Lan reluctantly brought over about three ounces of peanuts. Seeing the pained look in Aunt Lan's eyes, Bu Ling quickly accepted them. At most, she would just let her grandson be tempted a few less times in the future.
There are all sorts of conflicts among the neighbors in the courtyard house, but after living together day and night, they all get along quite well. They're truly there for each other when needed. Thinking of the neighbor outside last night with a stool, a stick, and a broom, Buling felt a warm glow inside and felt even more at home in the courtyard.
