Upon learning the whole story, Cao Yan couldn't save face.
She angrily slapped Cao Zhaodi across the face, "Didn't your family feed you? Why are you eating other people's food at school?"
Cao Zhaodi remained silent, her head bowed.
"Battalion Commander Cao, do you think your daughter has any food to eat?" Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't hold back any longer and retorted to Cao Yan.
Damn it, anyone with eyes can see that Cao Zhaodi looks exactly the same as when she first transmigrated – pale and thin, with arms so thin they look like only skin clinging to bones.
They looked like typical refugees; they probably couldn't even eat grass, let alone have a meal.
Sister-in-law Wang chimed in sarcastically, "My mother eats like a fat pig, while my daughter is as thin as a stick. Battalion Commander Cao truly deserves to be called the most filial person in our family compound."
Don't let Granny Cao's short stature fool you, she's quite heavy.
These days, being able to eat like a pig is the highest compliment you can give someone.
Granny Cao wasn't angry at all. "Don't talk about those things. Your son feeds Zhao Di every day. Isn't that because he's taken a liking to her? Everyone knows about it. For the sake of Zhao Di's reputation, the two children must be engaged."
Lin Xiaoxiao chuckled, "You're probably still stuck in feudal society. People have been liberated, and free love is all that's popular now. If you want to force your two children into an engagement, that's just an arranged marriage."
"How come you were left out of the 'Four Olds' campaign?"
"I..." Granny Cao wanted to say something more.
Cao Yan stopped her, saying, "Mother, stop talking."
Lin Xiaoshuo's words were not kind; once a label is attached, it's not easy to get rid of it.
Ultimately, it was their family that acted unfairly.
Finally, Cao Yan voluntarily compensated the Qian family with twenty yuan as a living allowance for the food that Qian Manjin had given to Cao Zhaodi during this period.
That was the end of it.
It didn't escalate to the political commissar's office.
After everyone left, Sister Wang spat on the ground and cursed, "Shameless bastard."
Lin Xiaoxiao: "Now Manjin won't take out any more food rations."
Sister-in-law Wang rolled up her sleeves, "I almost forgot to clean up all the mess in the house."
It would have been better if she hadn't mentioned it, because once she did, Sister Wang would get really angry.
Seeing this, Lin Xiaoxiao quickly took her leave.
Returning to my empty home, I couldn't help but think of Qin Yushen.
Upon closer inspection, it's still a long way from his return.
Perhaps because they've lived together for a while and gotten used to each other's presence, it feels strange when the other person isn't there.
Moreover, having such a handsome and eye-catching guy right in front of her, and being able to hug him to sleep at night, is simply the ultimate enjoyment for a die-hard fan like her.
Lin Xiaoxiao tossed and turned in bed.
Sudden--
She sat up abruptly and rushed into the toilet.
Two minutes later, he emerged with an indescribable expression.
Thinking about men so much that it triggers my period is truly unprecedented.
However, Lin Xiaoxiao was still very happy, which proved that her body had returned to normal.
The key thing is, I don't have menstrual cramps.
Cool!
the next day.
Lin Xiaoxiao clutched her lower abdomen, the resentment emanating from her body feeling like it could resurrect ten evil sword immortals.
Withdraw the word "爽" (shuang, meaning awesome/satisfying).
She's not happy at all right now.
I have a sharp, throbbing pain in my lower abdomen.
She would rather have a quick and painless operation than suffer this kind of slow torture.
Even if I'm not feeling well, I still have to go to work.
After a quick breakfast, I pushed my bicycle out the door and saw the door across the street open, with Qu Yu coming out carrying a basket.
Upon seeing her, Qu Yu abruptly retracted her right foot, which had been extended, and slammed the door shut with a bang.
They reacted as if they had encountered a raging flood or a ferocious beast.
Lin Xiaoxiao ignored her and went to work.
During my lunch break, I told the security guard on duty and then went out of the textile factory to wander around the tailings meeting place. After getting the information I wanted, I went back.
No. 102 Changping Street.
This retro-style courtyard was originally the private residence of a wealthy capitalist in Jiangcheng. After the capitalist was overthrown, the courtyard was confiscated.
The gate was secured with a large padlock, covered in dust, indicating it hadn't been opened in a long time.
To outsiders, this place appears uninhabited.
In reality, it had long since become the private residence of Director Ma of the Tail-Cutting Association.
A small gate was opened in the northeast corner of the courtyard, and Director Ma would go in and out of the small gate every day.
The courtyard has been clearly restored, and the garden rockery is well maintained. Director Ma and his family of eight have lived here for seven years.
Because the small door was located in a narrow alley, almost no one ever went there, so no one ever noticed it.
Moreover, Director Ma has a small house on the surface, and everyone assumes that he lives there.
It was only because Lin Xiaoxiao possessed psychic powers that she learned that Director Ma was actually a cunning man with multiple burrows, secretly enjoying the life of a capitalist.
She climbed over the wall, slipped into the yard, and found servants walking back and forth in the courtyard.
Tsk tsk~
They really know how to enjoy life.
"You little hussy, did you go to the study to bring tea to the master yesterday?"
A middle-aged woman's voice rang out not far away, and Lin Xiaoxiao almost thought she had come to a mansion in ancient feudal society.
Return it to Master, I'm speechless.
Director Ma is in charge of loading the goods.
"I...I didn't," the little girl said timidly, her head bowed in front of the woman.
The woman twisted her ear and warned her harshly, "You'd better not. If the madam catches you seducing the master, you'll be in big trouble."
"Furthermore, is the study a place where a lowly hussy like you can go?"
"You'd better behave yourself."
"roll."
After scolding the little girl, the woman took the tray from the woman next to her and said, "From now on, I will be the only one who can deliver anything to the study."
