Chapter 183 Then don't blame her for being ruthless】

"Male... um? What?" Ye Qingyue was full of questions.

"Slip of the tongue."

Ye Mei coughed dryly and changed the subject: "Do you know Sheng Zhiwu?"

"Didn't I go to Beijing? I seem to have heard of this name."

Ye Qingyue was so shocked that she let the cat out of the bag. Fortunately, she had just returned from Beijing, so she could cover up.

"He is from Beijing?"

Ye Mei did not doubt Ye Qingyue's words.

"I don't know."

Ye Qingyue naturally pretended not to know Sheng Zhiwu. "What happened later? Did you start to cooperate?"

"Well, every time he passed by Yunsheng County, he would send me a telegram."

Ye Mei nodded and said, "I would wait for him at the rented house at the agreed time."

"No wonder my mother washed so many fruits when I came back. They were all sent by him?"

Although Ye Qingyue's family has become better off recently, fruits are rare after all. It is still rare to wash a large plate of them and eat them casually like Ye Xianghong.

"He just brought it yesterday."

Ye Mei said, "I returned the favor and fried a lot of side dishes for him. I sealed them in glass bottles and boiled the bottles with water so that they could be preserved for a while. He seemed to like them very much and asked me if I was busy recently and if I could make him some more."

When Ye Mei said she wanted to send him the side dishes she made, Sheng Zhiwu didn't take it seriously. He thought that everyone was a rough old man and couldn't make anything delicious.

But he didn't expect that the beef sauce and small fish sauce fried by Ye Mei were both very good to eat with rice.

On this slightly cool day, eating side dishes with fragrant or spicy sauce and steamed buns is much more comfortable than chewing hard meat jerky before!

After trying it once, Sheng Zhiwu liked it.

Even if he was not in a hurry, Sheng Zhiwu would carry a bottle of side dishes with rice when he went out to eat.

Sheng Zhiwu ate most of the rice dish that Ye Mei made for the first time.

Daxiong and the other two also liked it, but seeing how he was enjoying it, they were embarrassed to snatch some from him.

But as time went on, the three of them couldn't help but "explode" while gnawing on the hard jerky and watching Sheng Zhiwu eat the steamed buns with the rice dish that smelled delicious.

Under the crying complaints of his subordinates, when Sheng Zhiwu came to deliver the goods to Ye Mei yesterday, he hesitantly asked her if she could make more rice dishes, and that he would bring more delicious food as a return gift to Ye Mei in the future.

Ye Qingyue found it a little funny after hearing this, maybe this is what it smells like.

"So, your black market business is stable?"

Ye Qingyue knew that Ye Mei's partner was Sheng Zhiwu, and the worry that had been lifted up in her heart was put back.

Although Sheng Zhiwu was a bit careless when he was young, he was very serious at work and would not cheat others.

Moreover, Sheng Zhiwu was a friend of Huo Qingchi.

If Sheng Zhiwu really cheated her elder sister, Ye Qingyue could go to Huo Qingchi to complain.

- The premise is that Sheng Zhiwu was not beaten to death by Ye Mei before she complained.

"Well, in the month you were away, Ding Chun and I made a lot of money. We also cooperated with a few strict-mouthed aunts and gave them things at a lower price, letting them sell them to their acquaintances. Although this way we make less money, the shipment volume is large and it is more convenient."

Ye Mei fell half of her body on the bed, and her long arm took out a small wooden box with a lock from under the bed.

When she opened it, she saw that it was full of neatly stacked big black coins!

A rough count showed that there were several thousand.

In addition, there were also a lot of miscellaneous bills.

"So much?"

Ye Qingyue was surprised. She guessed that Ye Mei had made a lot, but she didn't expect that she had made several thousand in just one month.

"It also has a price."

Ye Mei said: "I sent a lot of goods to the black market. I heard that someone in the black market was looking for me and Ding Chun. The goods that Sheng Zhiwu sent yesterday, I can't sell them in the county anymore, so I bought a bicycle and plan to ride to the next county to sell goods before dawn tomorrow morning."

"You have planned it a long time ago?"

Ye Qingyue didn't expect that the reckless elder sister in the past would now think about the problem so carefully.

"Sheng Zhiwu told me."

One of Ye Mei's advantages is that she can accept suggestions from others.

She listened carefully to what Ye Qingyue told her, and she also learned what Sheng Zhiwu taught her.

"He reminded me that he brought me a lot of goods, and the quality was not bad. If I sell too frequently, I might be targeted, so I have to take a break from time to time, or move to another place, and continue after the storm has passed."

Ye Mei said, "When I'm not selling goods, Ding Chun will ask for news outside. After knowing that someone was targeting us two days ago, he planned to go to the next county to develop for a while."

Seeing that she had a plan in mind, Ye Qingyue suddenly felt a sense of relief that "the child has grown up."

"Since you have a plan, I am relieved." Ye Qingyue said.

Ye Mei rolled her eyes at her and said, "This shouldn't be your concern. A student's job is to study hard. You, don't worry about not having enough money at home. With me and mother here, you won't be hungry!"

After returning home after the divorce, Ye Mei found out that Ye Qingyue almost carried the whole family alone when she was away. She

quarreled with outsiders who coveted the family, ran around for the family's livelihood, and had to take time to take care of her mother and brother in addition to work and study...

Ye Mei was not as tired as Ye Qingyue when she was tortured in her husband's family.

Thinking of Ye Qingyue's smiling face every time she came to see her, Ye Mei felt bad.

This silly girl, how heavy a burden did she carry on her shoulders?

Isn't she afraid of being crushed?

"I know."

How could Ye Qingyue not guess what Ye Mei was thinking?

Her family was too poor before, and she had no choice but to take care of everything.

Now that Ye Mei can make money, Ye Qingyue is happy to be a salted fish.

"By the way, how much does it cost to renovate the courtyard?"

Ye Mei said, "I'll pay for it."

Ye Qingyue's money was used to buy a house, and Ye Mei didn't want to sit back and enjoy the fruits of her labor.

"I don't know the market price either. I'll ask Comrade Huo when he comes back." Ye Qingyue said.

"Comrade Huo?"

Ye Mei thought for a moment, "Huo Qiuyi's nephew?"

When she was still in Qunshan County, she saw a girl from another place being robbed. She went over and knocked the robber down, and returned the stolen wallet to the girl from another place.

The other party didn't know her at all, but asked her if her name was Ye Mei.

Ye Mei was surprised to hear this. After chatting with the girl, she learned that her name was Huo Qiuyi, that she knew her sister, and that she had been saved by her sister...

Huo Qiuyi chattered a lot.

Ye Mei even knew that she liked to eat Hami melons and hated southern cockroaches, so she naturally wouldn't miss the matter of Huo Qingchi.

However, before Ye Mei got divorced, she had been staying in Qunshan County, so she had never met Huo Qingchi.

From Huo Qiuyi's words, Ye Mei vaguely felt that this man...

was too close to her sister.

"Yes, it's him, his name is Huo Qingchi."

When Ye Qingyue mentioned Huo Qingchi, strange emotions arose in her heart.

Although she pretended to be calm, the unconscious smile on her face still exposed her inner thoughts.

Seeing this, Ye Mei became alert.

Men from the city like Huo Qingchi are more knowledgeable than country people like them, and they have more tricks to deceive young girls.

Because of this face, her sister has been in trouble because of men.

This Huo Qingchi...

it's better to be safe than sorry.

Ye Mei was on guard against Huo Qingchi in her heart, but she didn't say it in front of Ye Qingyue. She

planned to observe this man carefully when they meet in the future to see if this man has any evil intentions.

If he was the same man who bullied her sister in the past, then don't blame her for being ruthless.

"Oh, right."

Ye Mei thought of another thing, "Before you left, you gave me a bottle of medicine. After I took it, I felt much stronger... Is this normal?"
