She was really into money. She planted crops in her small yard and even the road in front of the door, planting things that could be exchanged for money.
These idle lands do not require paying public taxes, which is a good deal for her.
She never seems to feel tired. Except for sleeping at night, she is unwilling to stop for even a second. She makes full use of everything and will never waste a minute or a second.
The hard work, coupled with the round-the-clock work every day, made Shumei a completely different person. She lost a lot of weight, her skin became darker, and in the blink of an eye she seemed to have aged several years.
However, she found joy in the midst of hardship, counting on her fingers every day how long it would take for Boyi to come out. As the days until Boyi's return were getting closer and closer, she felt happy no matter how hard or tired she was.
She'd inevitably run into some rough patches with the talkative, sarcastic villagers, but thankfully, they were all trivial matters that couldn't hurt her at all. She'd seen it all, so she wasn't afraid of their harsh words or overreactions.
The person who loves to stir up trouble the most in the village is her aunt Zhang Xiaoqin, but Zhang Xiaoqin is busy with her pregnancy and really has no time to take care of her.
She didn't ask for anything else, just to live her life like this, for her two children to be obedient, and for her to study hard and get into a good school so that she could give Boyi a surprise.
It is said that there is no filial son by the bedside of a long-term patient, but Wu Ju was not willing to take care of the bedridden Zhang Binglin willingly. Every time she deliberately left early and came back late, no one knew where she went or what she did, but she just left Zhang Binglin alone at home and ignored him.
Therefore, Shumei took care of Zhang Binglin during the time he was ill.
Life was tight now, and she had no spare money to take Zhang Binglin to the hospital for a check-up. Perhaps it was God's mercy, but Zhang Binglin's illness suddenly recovered, and he was able to run, walk, eat and sleep.
This can be considered a gift from God. Shumei doesn't have to take time out every day to take care of Zhang Binglin, which saves her a lot of time to do other things.
Time flies, and life passes by in a dull manner.
Qingke and Wencai each live their own lives, like two completely non-intersecting parallel lines, each with its own trajectory.
Qing Ke devoted all her energy to her work, which allowed her to temporarily forget the pain.
After what happened in Yuanji Village, Li Yushu no longer forced Li Wencai to get married.
He finally understood that an unhappy marriage was worse than being single. Life was only a few decades long, so it was precious. One should just get by and not force things.
Wencai also took a laissez-faire attitude. For him, love was too far away. He had low emotional intelligence and could not tell what true love was, nor did he know how to obtain love.
He felt that true love should come unexpectedly. What is meant to come will eventually come, and it cannot be forced.
Although he is such an idiot in love, he is actually a bit like a philosopher of love, and he can understand such profound truths.
Qing Keke was not as heartless as him. Although she tried hard to forget that there was a person named Wu Meng in this world, her heart just wouldn't obey her.
Wu Meng's humiliation of her was engraved in her mind like a brand, and it could not be erased.
Fortunately, Wu Meng never came to see her again after that day. Her life returned to normal, and on the surface, nothing seemed unusual.
She thought everything would be over, it was just a matter of time.
It's just that she didn't take it seriously. If she was sincere, she should have noticed Shang Xin's abnormality.
Ever since that incident, Shang Xin had been depressed. He even considered going back to Wu Meng to seek justice for his precious daughter. But in this situation, even if he killed Wu Meng, what would that do? His daughter's innocence would still be lost. Since Qing Ke didn't mention it, he would pretend to know nothing, to avoid further embarrassment for Qing Ke.
In order to help Qing Ke get over the incident, he even lowered his face to discuss with the Wang family and repeatedly begged the Wang family to arrange the marriage between Qing Ke and Wang Zhengsheng.
The Wang family's parents thought that they were marrying above their station and would of course be more than happy to have the girl accepted. However, Wang Zhengsheng kept making excuses to refuse and even threatened Qing Ke time and time again, asking her to help them deal with the matter.
When Qing Ke found out, she was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. She blamed herself for being too loving and deserved to be in trouble.
One day, she and Wang Zhengsheng were arguing downstairs of the company again. Wang Zhengsheng came to ask her to cover for him again, saying that it was his mother's 50th birthday and all relatives and friends were there, and she, the "future daughter-in-law", had to be there.
