Yao Tongjia spends half the day working at the garment factory and the other half at the traditional Chinese medicine shop. Now, Teacher Xue has completely handed over the shop to Yao Tongjia, and he can focus on teaching at school.
When Yao Tongjia visited Teacher Xue last time, she sensed that Teacher Xue and Teacher Zhai seemed to be getting together, but Yao Tongjia dared not let them know what she had noticed.
It's normal for elderly people who have no children to keep each other company. The dead should give way to the living. Teacher Xue has spent so many years feeling guilty to commemorate his wife and children, which is enough!
Yao Tongjia found an ancient formula in the handwritten copy given to her by Zhou Kunran. She modified some of the ingredients and used the formula to make a whitening and anti-aging powder.
After repeatedly preparing the medicine, she had the shop assistant grind it into various powders for her. That evening, she would go home and mix the powders with the spring water to make a lotion.
Previously, when Xiao Yan had freckles, she specially took this to try on Xiao Yan, and the freckles disappeared quickly, and the wrinkles were also greatly reduced.
Now she has packaged this anti-wrinkle and spot-removing lotion into small, exquisite bottles, and after three busy nights, she has finally made 50 sets!
The next day, Yao Tongjia arrived at the courtyard house and saw Li Chenyi saying goodbye to Li Youyou. She breathed a sigh of relief and quickly handed over the things, saying, "Thank you for your help!"
Li Chenyi nodded: "I'll go back and take care of the formalities. Youyou doesn't want to come back with me, so I'll have to trouble you to take care of her!"
Yao Tongjia's lips twitched. This courtyard was almost filled with servants who took care of Li Youyou. How could she take care of her?
Seeing Yao Tongjia's lips twitching, Li Chenyi also felt that what he said was superfluous. If Li Youyou encountered any trouble, they would definitely help if they could.
He didn't take back what he said earlier, nodded and got into the car. Li Chenyi looked at Yao Tongjia in the rearview mirror and wondered how such a small girl could be so amazing.
Of course, he just sighed for a moment and then closed his eyes to rest. Last time he went back, he bankrupted that father!
The family had fallen on hard times and were now homeless. Sitting in the car, Li Chenyi overheard his father and stepmother blaming each other.
"I told you not to mess with that wolf cub, why didn't you listen to me? Now look what's happened, we have nothing left!" These are the words of the plastic father.
The stepmother, devoid of her former gentleness, roared at the plastic father, "Do you think I'll let that bitch overshadow my daughter forever if I don't kill her? Don't you hear what people are saying all day long?"
“Those people who look down on others all say how beautiful Li Youyou is and how elegant she is, while they belittle my daughter to the point of being worthless!”
"People are saying that on purpose, don't you understand? She's an orphan with no parents to love her, who would think she's good? Why are you ruining our future?"
“You’re still that wolf cub’s father. He bankrupted us, so we went to live in his house. If he wouldn’t let us stay, we’d sue him!”
The plastic dad thought about it and agreed, "Let's go then!"
Li Chenyi sneered. He knew this fake father would act this way. If they were willing to live their lives quietly and not bother him, he would let them go.
But whether they can cling to me depends on whether they have the luck to do so!
The "plastic dad" was truly penniless. The whole family carried their luggage as they walked, and along the way, the stepmother, wearing 10-centimeter high heels, complained, "How come you don't even have money for a taxi?"
The "plastic dad," thinking about facing his wolf-like son, was also a little annoyed: "Didn't you secretly hide some cash either?"
The stepmother's eyes flickered. She used to take a lot of money back to her parents' home and have her mother save it for her. It was her livelihood, and she wouldn't tell the person in front of her.
She wanted to wait and see if this man could still take the wolf cub's money back. If he could, she would continue to live with him; if not, she would find a chance to dump him!
The two children are used to their parents arguing. Dad and Mom often play separately, and when they are together, they blame each other. They are used to it!
When the four people were crossing the road together, the two who were blaming each other finally remembered that there were two children: the stepmother was holding her daughter's hand, and the "plastic dad" was holding his precious son's hand.
When they were crossing the zebra crossing, they looked left and right and saw that there were no people or cars, so they crossed the zebra crossing together. But suddenly a wobbly truck rushed towards the four of them at high speed.
The turn of events was too fast for the four of them to react. They stood there dumbfounded. After the stepmother came to her senses, she somehow mustered the strength to give her daughter and husband a hard shove.
She tried to use the force to fall backward in order to escape, but unfortunately she was wearing 10-centimeter high heels, so she didn't have enough strength and didn't fall far enough.
As soon as she lay down on the ground, she felt a pain in her foot and then fainted!
The accident was quickly reported. The truck driver was driving under the influence of alcohol, which caused the accident that resulted in three deaths and one injury. According to the surveillance footage, the man was able to escape; he was trying to run to the side with a child in each hand!
But the woman with him pushed them all back, thinking she could escape. Instead, she fell to the ground and suffered comminuted fractures in both legs.
Not only will she be confined to a wheelchair for the rest of her life, but now the police are going to charge her with murder. Although she denies it, the surveillance cameras have captured her every move.
Her denials were useless. The woman yelled from her hospital bed, "It was Li Chenyi who called the car and wiped out our whole family! Why don't you arrest him?"
The police followed this route to investigate Li Chenyi, but from beginning to end, Li Chenyi and the truck driver never met once.
Of course, Li Chenyi was still called to the police station to assist in the investigation, and later it was suggested that Li Chenyi help his father and two siblings collect their bodies.
However, when Li Chenyi showed the police the previous protection order, the police saw that this father had only ever beaten them since they were young, but had never raised them.
They put the matter of collecting the body aside, saying that social workers would come to help them collect the body later!
Li Chenyi walked out of the police station with a relaxed expression. When he got into the car, his expression didn't change at all. It was good for the whole family to travel together like this, so he wouldn't be lonely on the road!
Ultimately, the woman was convicted of murder and executed shortly afterward.
When Li Chenyi saw the news in the newspaper, he felt no emotion whatsoever! He was just afraid that his sister would be questioned by everyone when she came back.
He followed his sister's request and didn't take her back to Hong Kong. When his sister came back later, he figured everyone would have forgotten about it!
After all, there are many news stories in the port city every year, so who remembers those few people who died in car accidents?
