Lu Wanqing left Tiger's house with the money in her pocket, thinking to herself, "Being a middleman really makes money fast. How much hard work do you have to do farming in the countryside to earn this much money!"
However, when she thought about the risks involved in being a middleman, she felt better.
In this day and age, if you get caught for speculation and profiteering, you're really in for a world of trouble!
Speaking of peanuts, she realized it had been a long time since she'd visited Liu Ying's house. She'd been too busy lately, slowing down her sewing pace and not daring to take on too many orders. Once she moved and her life stabilized, she would still have to work hard.
Of course, there was another thing she wanted to ask Liu Zhengfeng: did he have any news about Lin Ye's father? It had been quite a while since she last ate at his house, and she wondered if he had found anything.
With that in mind, Lu Wanqing went to the grocery store, spent seven yuan to buy two bottles of Moutai, and took them to Liu Ying's house.
When they arrived at the door, they saw that the door was closed, and then they remembered that it was a workday and both father and daughter were at work!
She wrote a note, stuffed it into the net bag containing the wine, and then asked someone nearby to pass it on.
As she rode her bike home, she suddenly remembered that there had been a package when she received a letter from home last time. Why hadn't she received the package slip yet?
She went to the post office and asked around, and finally found out that her mother, Zhang Guixiang, had chased after the package and taken it back!
If I'm not mistaken, the wedding must have gone wrong, and Zhang Guixiang was so angry that she took back the package that was already mailed late!
Thinking that the wedding might be ruined, Lu Wanqing felt relieved.
What she didn't know was that the wedding was not just a mess; the Lu family and the Qi family were practically irreconcilable enemies.
Qi Wei's father, Qi Feng, was found to have had an improper relationship with a subordinate. In view of his previous contributions and to save face, he allowed Qi Wei to step down from his original position on the grounds of illness.
Because Lu Jiajia had squandered all the family's money, Qi's mother disliked her intensely. Knowing that Lu Jiajia had been ill and was not in good health, she hesitated to allow her to enter the family.
Qi Wei also showed little interest in welcoming Lu Jiajia in!
In fact, the two had already registered their marriage at the Civil Affairs Bureau before holding their wedding. Even though Lu Jiajia did not move into Qi Wei's house, the fact that they were already husband and wife would not change.
Lu Jiajia felt incredibly ashamed to be living at her parents' house, and she went to Qi Wei several times to beg him, but Qi Wei never agreed.
"Qi Wei, you took my virginity and are now my husband. How can you be so irresponsible? Your family is down on its luck now, so why do you complain about my poor health!" Lu Jiajia wailed.
Because of this, she cried countless times in front of Lu Aiguo and Zhang Guixiang. Lu Aiguo even humbled himself and went to find Qi Feng.
Qi Feng had just stepped down from his position and was in a bad mood. He also heard that Lu Jiajia's health was already very poor, so he was no longer willing to accept the marriage. He even took back the job he had originally found for Lu Jiajia.
"My dear in-law, I've retired due to illness and can't manage things anymore. Let Qi Wei handle his own affairs!" The implication was that since Qi Wei didn't want to bring Lu Jiajia into the family, there was nothing he could do.
Qi Wei and Lu Jiajia were in this awkward situation where they were husband and wife but acted like enemies!
Lu Jiajia was furious!
All of this was caused by the package that Lu Wanqing sent her!
Lu Aiguo and Zhang Guixiang were heartbroken to see Lu Jiajia in such a state, and naturally felt a deep hatred for Lu Wanqing.
"I raised her for eighteen years, and she turned out to be an ungrateful wretch. If I had known, I shouldn't have been so good to her before. I never let her lack food or anything. Now that I think about it, I regret it!" Zhang Guixiang wiped away her tears.
Lu Aiguo even beat his chest and stamped his feet, saying that from now on, the Lu family would not have Lu Wanqing as their daughter. If she wanted to stay in the countryside, she could stay there forever and never return to the capital. Everything in this family would be left to Lu Jiajia.
They felt incredibly sorry for Lu Jiajia when they thought about the hardships she had endured in the past and the many things she had recently encountered.
Lu Wanqing was unaware of what was happening in the capital and had long since given up any illusions about her parents. The absence of a package from the capital would have no impact on her.
She went to the supply and marketing cooperative, bought some things, and then went home.
When she passed by Hongqi Elementary School, she deliberately turned to the school gate to see if she could see Lin Ye having class.
Unexpectedly, she saw it too. On the playground, Lin Ye was leading the children in dribbling training. His tall figure was wearing a sports uniform, and he was whistling. He looked sunny and handsome.
Lin Ye today is no longer the slovenly, unruly boy he once was, but a confident and responsible man.
Lu Wanqing watched silently for a while, then walked away with a smile on her lips.
When Lin Ye returned from get off work, Lu Wanqing deliberately put on a long face and said to him, "Ah Ye, I went to school today."
Lin Ye was stunned: "When? Why didn't you look for me?"
"I saw you. I saw you talking to another woman, so I left," Lu Wanqing said angrily.
Lin Ye's face instantly turned ashen, and he nervously hugged her. "Wife, are you sure you're not mistaken? How could I possibly talk to other women? The female students in my class are still little kids. I don't say a word to them except for necessary instructions!"
Seeing Lin Ye's panicked expression, Lu Wanqing chuckled, "Just kidding! I stayed at the school gate for a while and saw you were in class, so I didn't disturb you."
Lin Ye flicked her nose hard, laughing and crying at the same time, "You're so naughty, just wait till tonight I get my hands on you! By the way, did you go to the county town again?"
"Okay, I found the furniture at the consignment shop. When we have time, let's borrow a tractor from the team to haul it away!"
Lu Wanqing broke free from his embrace and ran away with a grin.
Lin Ye followed her and started preparing dinner together. The two chatted and laughed as they cooked.
Halfway through cooking, Lin Ye remembered the bankbook in his pocket and quickly took it out to hand to Lu Wanqing: "You interrupted me on the way back, and I almost forgot to give it to you. This is the money from selling the crabs; the farm gave it to me directly in the bankbook."
Lu Wanqing happily put the passbook into her pocket. After a quick calculation, she discovered that her family's assets had reached more than 6,000 yuan, and they would soon be among the 10,000-yuan households.
There should be some income after the sweet potatoes are sold.
However, there are many other expenses. Buying furniture will cost a lot of money, and treating the team to a meal after moving will also require a budget.
She hadn't discussed treating the team to a meal with Lin Ye yet. Humans are social beings, and this was where he had lived since childhood; she couldn't let herself become an island because of a few people.
She believes that most people are friendly and can coexist peacefully.
She quickly confirmed this when she harvested the rice at home.
