The farce ended with Zhang's father accidentally injuring Li Xiujun with a stick.
Zhang's father intended to teach Zeng Nan a lesson, and his force was absolutely full.
Zhang Guimei applied medicine to the little girl distressedly, almost crying. "I'm sorry, I didn't expect that my dad wouldn't listen to my explanation at all. Your back is all red. Does it hurt?"
These past few days have been quite dramatic, with all sorts of human relationships and family disputes. Li Xiujun feels that she could just hang a sign on her chest and go to the neighborhood committee to take up her post.
She was clearly walking at the back, far away from the "battlefield", but who would have thought that the war would spread so quickly.
The moment the feather duster fell down, it was completely unexpected.
With a pale face, he comforted her, "It's okay, it doesn't hurt much...hiss...sister, please be gentle."
Realizing that she had hurt the little girl, Zhang Guimei apologized repeatedly and blew on her wound a few times.
By the time the two men had finished dealing with the matter and came out, Zhang's father and mother in the yard had roughly understood the whole story.
Thinking about how a young man who had done nothing wrong always came to my house, he was either scolded for no reason or chased around with a feather duster.
The two men were filled with shame and hit their daughter hard on the head.
Zhang Guimei screamed in pain, "I know I was wrong. I won't do it again, absolutely not again."
"You still want a future?" Father Zhang snorted coldly, then turned to apologize to Li Xiujun: "It's all our fault. Stay for dinner later. Your aunt's cooking skills are pretty good."
Thinking of the aunt who had just agreed not long ago, he smiled awkwardly: "I have already promised others, I will wait until later. I will definitely come to eat when I have the chance."
"What do you mean later? It's better to do it today than today. Let's do it tomorrow."
Zhang's mother habitually wanted to slap her daughter. Her hand dangled in the air, her eyes shining. "Yes, tomorrow, little girl, it's settled. You must come tomorrow."
After everyone talked it out, they naturally had no suggestions about the young couple's idea of moving.
Zeng Nan took out the money from his pocket and put it in Li Xiujun's palm.
After a lot of trouble, I finally got the money. It seemed that the other party even went to exchange it for brand new big red banknotes.
As he was counting, he suddenly realized something was wrong: "Brother Zeng Nan, you gave me two hundred too much, here, I'll give it back to you."
"What's there to repay? You don't have to. We've troubled you for so long with this little thing, and I haven't thanked you properly yet. My husband and I don't have much money, and since I heard you're still studying, we'll just consider this as supporting you."
Zhang Guimei stuffed it back into her pocket with rare force, her tone firm and unquestionable.
Li Xiujun had no choice but to nod, and when no one was paying attention, she secretly put the money under the vase in the cupboard.
Seeing that the outside was gradually shrouded in darkness, she hurried back, just in time for the aunt to finish cooking and come over to call her.
"Is everything going well today? If they won't give it to you, I'll go get someone to beat drums and gongs outside their house all night long. I guarantee they'll be all compliant by the next day."
Li Xiujun didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and nodded: "It went quite smoothly. Thank you for the good idea, Auntie."
"As long as everything goes well, as long as everything goes well." The auntie added more rice for her, occasionally putting food into her bowl: "Eat more, this braised pork is my signature dish. I heard that you girls all like that...what's it called...losing weight, what's good about being as thin as a pole? Being able to eat is a blessing."
Looking at the small hills that kept piling up in the bowl, he seemed to be ready to compete with Mr. Gu.
In fact, her appetite is relatively large among girls, and since she does a lot of physical work, her appetite may even exceed that of some boys.
Maybe it’s because of my physique, but no matter how much or how little I eat, my weight remains the same.
Knowing that the other party was doing it for her own good, Li Xiujun did not refute and enjoyed this sweet "pain".
After collecting the bills, for the next day and a half, she was basically taken to her aunt's house for breakfast as soon as she woke up in the morning. Lunch and dinner were eaten at her aunt's house or Zhang Guimei's parents' house alternately.
I couldn't be happier.
Zhang Guimei and Zeng Nan had also been moving things over the past few days. They had even chosen a location across from Li Xiujun's old house, under the pretext that they could help look after her even when she wasn't home.
On the morning Li Xiujun passed away, Auntie and Zhang Guimei were in tears as they stuffed bags of things into her arms and told her to come home often when she had time.
Zeng Nan quit his job for half a day and took her to town.
As promised, Gu Qingming arrived in a jeep at two o'clock in the afternoon.
The corners of his eyes slightly turned up, and for the first time, he looked a little tired. "How is it going? Are all the money returned?"
While putting things away, Li Xiujun told him about her experiences over the past few days.
Suddenly, I found a thin envelope in the package. I took it out and saw that there were about 400 yuan in scattered coins inside.
There was also a handwritten letter from Zhang Guimei, the contents of which were also simple:
"You're welcome, sister. Studying hard is the best way to repay us."
At the end, I drew a small smiley face.
It turned out that they found the money that Li Xiujun had stuffed under the vase that night. They were so touched that they were afraid to give it to her directly because she would not accept it, so they stuffed it back in the same way.
Zeng Nan was afraid that she would find out in advance, so when he arrived at the place, he said that he had something to do and hurried back.
Li Xiujun didn't try to avoid it, so Gu Qingming beside her naturally glanced at the contents of the letter and rubbed her head: "It's okay, next time we come back, let's bring back more specialties from Beijing."
"Uh-huh."
She was thinking about something and didn't realize that the other person was not talking about me, but about us.
When they returned to Gu's house and were moving things out of the car, they happened to meet Gu Ming and Su Wanru, who had just finished a date and were holding hands and reluctant to leave.
Gu Qingming still remembered what Jian Guochao had said before, that they had gone to an auction house together, and almost immediately his eyes fell on Li Xiujun's face.
Gu Ming didn't know why, but he suddenly felt guilty and quickly pulled his hand back: "Uncle San, sister, what a coincidence, you are finally back."
"So you're Gu Ming's third uncle, hello." Su Wanru looked at another man who appeared beside her, with an equally superior appearance and temperament, and hated him deeply: "I'm Gu Ming's..."
"Friend! She's my friend, haha. Sister, let me help you carry it. I'm not good at anything else, but I'm strong. Put this on my shoulder."
Without even thinking about it, Gu Ming subconsciously distanced himself from the matter.
They finally had the chance to spend time together these days, and they even confirmed their relationship in the morning.
Why didn’t she die outside, but came back instead!
Su Wanru pinched her palms in hatred, trying hard to prevent her expression from being distorted by anger.
Li Xiujun, who was at the center of the storm, took one look at the two and understood. This pair of bastards had finally gotten together.
