After the three of them walked to the gate of the compound, a drizzle began to fall.
Li Yuhui and Jiang Wan followed Xu Zhaodi home. Xu Zhaodi took out two sets of books and gave one set to each of them.
Xu Zhaodi said: "One of the sets is prepared for my younger brothers and sisters in my hometown. Hui, you can take a look at it first, and return it to me when I return to my hometown.
After I leave, there will be one set left, you two can take turns looking at it."
Li Yuhui was extremely grateful. In her heart, Xu Zhaodi would always be the person who helped her in times of need.
Li Yuhui said: "Thank you Zhaodi."
"Don't be polite, just take the book and read it."
After the two men left, Xu Zhaodi ate a few bites of leftovers, washed up, and lay down to rest.
Jiang Wan started reading as soon as he entered the door. Li Yuhui went downstairs and bought a notebook and a pen from the team store. The first thing she did when she came back was to read.
As for Chen Jianguo, they were also informed of this matter during the meeting.
After Zhang Qingdong found out, his head was buzzing for a moment.
It’s time to take the college entrance examination. Is Jiang Wan leaving soon?
Thinking about Jiang Wan leaving, Zhang Qingdong felt a void in his heart.
If Jiang Wan left, he would really be the only one left.
If Jiang Wan gets into university, that would be great too. At least this girl wouldn't have to suffer with me.
Thinking of this, Zhang Qingdong raised his head and chest, as if he felt that he had let go.
After the meeting, Chen Jianguo went shopping in the afternoon and bought a red sweater for Xu Zhaodi.
I don’t know why, but he always thinks his wife looks best in bright red.
During these days, the streets of the city were filled with people riding buses into the city to sign up as educated youth. The steamed buns and dumplings sold particularly well in the restaurants. Xu Zhaodi would go home early after selling all the steamed buns and dumplings at around three or four in the afternoon.
Because she was worried that someone would follow her on the road, she walked very quickly, looking back from time to time. When she arrived in the town, she felt relieved.
I don't know why, but when I woke up early this morning, my right eyelid kept twitching.
When Xu Zhaodi reached the gate of the compound, Zhao Erdan said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, someone has come to your house."
Xu Zhaodi's eyelids jumped: "Who is it?"
"you guess."
Xu Zhaodi smiled and said, "Okay, Xiao Zhao, you even know how to play dumb with me. Next time I make delicious food, I won't give it to you."
Zhao Erdan smiled flatteringly when he heard it: "No, sister-in-law, I was wrong.
It's your aunt who has come from her hometown. You should go and see her right away. She's been here for two or three hours."
Aunt?
The person Xu Zhaodi thought of was her adoptive mother and aunt Wang Yulian. She hadn't seen her for almost a year and she really missed her.
"Thank you. I'll make you some pancakes some other day."
As Xu Zhaodi was speaking, the person had already walked away.
Zhao Erdan said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, can I eat the butter cake you made last time?"
"Sure, no problem."
Xu Zhaodi walked hurriedly. When she reached the bottom of the courtyard building and saw someone sitting under a big tree, the smile on her face disappeared immediately.
Why is it her?
Tian Li was wearing a washed-out blue work suit on the upper body, black pants on the lower body, and a pair of cloth shoes on her feet. She was sitting under a big tree with a sad face.
She turned her head to glance at Xu Zhaodi but didn't recognize her. She tilted her head with an impatient look and pulled the bag on her thigh into her arms. Her face was full of "Why hasn't this money-losing guy come over yet? Is he planning to starve herself to death?"
Tian Li felt that the person looked familiar. She couldn't help but turn her head to take another look and stood up from her chair in shock.
"You...you are Zhaodi?"
She looked at him in disbelief, her tone full of doubt.
Why is this girl so thin?
Xu Zhaodi really wanted to pretend not to know her and just walk past her.
No wonder my eyelids were twitching so early in the morning. The person who came was Tian Li, it would be strange if my eyelids didn’t twitch.
Xu Zhaodi looked indifferent and not very happy. She felt that it was not a relative who came, but a debt collector.
"Why are you here?"
Seeing that she didn't even call her mom, Tian Li complained, "What are you talking about?
You are my biological child, so I can't come to see you?
Come into the house and get me something to eat, I'm almost starving."
Tian Li stood up and took the initiative to enter the building.
Xu Zhaodi followed silently behind him. As soon as the door of the room opened, Tian Li came in first. She looked at the clean and tidy room with an unhappy look on her face.
"I have never seen such a heartless person like you. When I asked you to marry Chen Jianguo, you were still finding fault with me.
Look now, this house is so nice and clean. You are enjoying a good life with him. Compared with your sisters, your life now is like that of a wealthy family."
These words made Xu Zhaodi's face darken, as if the house could be clean and tidy without anyone cleaning it.
Xu Zhaodi said coldly: "What on earth are you doing here?
You didn't raise me. You two have already used me as collateral for your debts. I am just a relative to you. My father is Tian Erhu and my mother is Wang Yulian. I hope you can understand this clearly."
Tian Li threw the bag onto the table, dust flew all over the bag, and Xu Zhaodi frowned as she looked at it.
If she were to live her life over again, she wouldn't want to maintain any relationship that made her feel tired.
"You are such an ungrateful person, you little bitch. I came all the way here, and as soon as I walked in, I didn't even have a sip of water, and you're already trying to distance yourself from me.
Is there anyone who treats his daughter like you?
Other girls who have money tend to favor their parents' family, but you favor your husband's family. Do you have no brains or have your brains been eaten by a dog?
Let me ask you, when Chen Baoguo came to visit some time ago, did you give him money?
I tell you, you have to give me as much as you give him.
I am your mother. If you don't give money to your mother, why would you give money to an outsider?"
As Tian Li spoke, she came forward and poked Xu Zhaodi on the forehead with her finger, but Xu Zhaodi dodged by turning her head away.
She said, no one comes to visit you for no reason, it seems you are here to ask for money.
Well, I’ve been living in the original owner’s body for half a year, but this is the first time I’ve seen with my own eyes this mother who favors boys over girls in my memory.
When Tian Li saw Xu Zhaodi dodge, her face became even uglier.
There was a hint of coldness in Xu Zhaodi's eyes, which made Tian Li's face pause.
This girl... looks a lot thinner and... prettier.
It's just...it seems like something is different.
Xu Zhaodi said calmly, "Are you here just to ask me for money?"
Tian Li said: "What about that? The family is barely making ends meet, and your brother can't eat meat while he's growing up. Doesn't that cost money?
Your brother still has to go to school and buy shoes for school, doesn't that cost money?"
"So? What does this have to do with me?"
Xu Zhaodi didn't plan to pour her water or cook. She sat down slowly at the dining table with an indifferent look on her face.
She suffered too much in her previous life, so in this life, whenever she encounters a relationship that makes her feel tired, she doesn't want to spend any time trying to please others, nor does she want to be a pushover.
Tian Li was a person who only cared about her son and not her daughter. She just borrowed her belly to live in the world.
She gave her life, so she should be filial.
However, as soon as she was born, she was thrown into the back mountain by the couple to feed the wolves. If it weren't for the kindness of her uncle and aunt, she would have died long ago.
