Pei Tiantian ate the strawberry-flavored fruit candy and said incoherently: "Grandma, where did this candy come from?"
"Xue Tingting, the eldest daughter of the Xue family, returned to the village today. She rode in a small foreign car with a driver. It was so impressive. Everyone in the village came to see her. Xue Tingting asked the driver to give out candies to everyone!"
Wang Ruizhen said.
Xue Tingting?
Pei Tiantian suddenly realized that this was the heroine's elder sister who married a wealthy man in the city.
At the beginning, Xue Tingting took the initiative to drop out of school and go to work in the city in order to take care of her two younger siblings. Then she married a businessman who was 20 years older than her. Only then did the Xue family's living conditions gradually improve.
"Why, you don't remember? Last winter, Xue Tingting and her husband came back and had a banquet. Didn't you go there? You naughty boy, didn't you run into Ningxiang's room and have a quarrel with her? How come you have forgotten everything?"
Pei Tiantian's expression suddenly turned stiff.
Oh, that’s right, so that’s how it was. She finally remembered how the original owner had offended the heroine!
When Xue Tingting returned to the village to hold a banquet, the original owner went to drink with Wang Ruizhen. Later, the original owner ran to Xue Ningxiang's room to make trouble, and ended up tearing up the winter vacation homework book that Xue Ningxiang had worked so hard to write.
Xue Ningxiang was very angry when she saw this, and she grabbed the original owner and asked her to apologize to her. Unexpectedly, the original owner didn't care at all, and deliberately cried in front of everyone and said that Xue Ningxiang bullied her.
At that time, Xue Ningxiang's father, who loved drinking and beating people, had not yet passed away. After the banquet, he felt that Xue Ningxiang had lost face for him in front of outsiders today, so without saying a word, he picked up a yellow broom stick and beat Xue Ningxiang severely. Xue Ningxiang was beaten so hard that she couldn't get out of bed for several days.
So after that, Xue Ningxiang began to hate the original owner.
Pei Tiantian felt like crying but had no tears. Suddenly, she felt that the candy in her mouth no longer tasted good.
Damn, it’s another mess left by the original owner. She is really having a hard time.
Pei Tiantian and Wang Ruizhen's grandson had just returned home, holding hands and being affectionate, when they saw a woman in a black down jacket sitting in the main room with two large bags on the table.
Sitting at Pei Tiantian’s exclusive small table was a thin girl. She was wearing a bright red down jacket, a pink hairband on her head, and a pair of shiny black leather shoes. She looked like a little peacock.
Pei Tiantian recognized the little girl immediately. It was her cousin Li Zhaodi.
At this moment, her shiny black leather shoes stepped mercilessly on the small stool where Pei Tiantian usually sat, leaving several muddy footprints.
Li Zhaodi inherited her father Li Jianguo's single eyelids, and there was a hint of arrogance in her eyes.
Pei Tiantian felt inexplicably unhappy when she saw Li Zhaodi wasting her own seat.
But she was an adult in her twenties after all. There was no way she could argue with a nine-year-old child. She could only suppress her dissatisfaction.
"Mom, Tiantian, you're back!"
Pei Zhiqin raised his head and saw them, and came over to meet them.
"Zhiqin, why did you bring things here today? There's still more than half a month before the Chinese New Year!"
Wang Ruizhen noticed Li Zhaodi standing next to her. She smiled in surprise and said, "Isn't this Zhaodi? I didn't expect Zhaodi to be here too!"
It’s no wonder she was surprised. After all, it had been four years since Li Zhaodi last returned to the village.
Unlike Wang Ruizhen and Pei Zhiqin, mother and daughter, who were all smiles, Pei Tiantian frowned deeply.
Pei Zhiqin is Wang Ruizhen's only daughter. She has been married and moved to the city for many years, and her family owns a leather factory.
This time she came back to the village not just to visit relatives.
Pei Tiantian remembered that Pei Zhiqin in the novel bought so-called sex-changing pills in the countryside and gave birth to a deformed baby that was neither male nor female. She went crazy as soon as the child was born, and was forcibly sent to a mental hospital by Li Jianguo's family, where she died.
Pei Zhiqin was one of the only two contestants who was sent to a mental hospital like the original owner, so Pei Tiantian still had a deep impression of this.
When the Pei family found out, they rushed to the city, only to find Pei Zhiqin's body. Li Zhaodi and Li Jianguo had disappeared since then.
Pei Tiantian sighed in her heart, wondering if the Pei family was cursed, why did each of them have such tragic endings.
"Mom, the factory has been too busy recently. We have too many orders. Jianguo and I can't go home every day. We really can't take care of Zhaodi. We can only bring Zhaodi to you first, and I will pick her up after the New Year."
Pei Zhiqin said with a smile.
Wang Ruizhen then nodded in understanding.
Li Jianguo's leather factory has been performing better and better in the past two years, and the two of them are getting busier and busier.
However, Li Zhaodi's grandmother is extremely patriarchal and often dislikes Li Zhaodi. She simply does not have the patience to take care of Li Zhaodi.
"Grandma! Zhaodi misses you!"
The little peacock Li Zhaodi jumped down from the small table, trotted to Wang Ruizhen, and threw herself into Wang Ruizhen's arms and acted coquettishly.
Pei Tiantian suddenly felt a loud alarm in her head.
Why does it feel like Li Zhaodi is here on purpose to steal her grandmother?
Li Zhaodi suddenly raised her eyes in Wang Ruizhen's arms and looked at Pei Tiantian beside her provocatively, with a smug smile on her lips.
Pei Tiantian had a blank expression on her face.
Sure enough, she guessed right.
This cousin came here on purpose to snatch her grandma away.
Seeing Pei Tiantian looking at her, Li Zhaodi hugged Wang Ruizhen even tighter, and the expression on her little face became more provocative.
Pei Tiantian: ...
That doesn't have to be the case.
Wang Ruizhen subconsciously let go of Pei Tiantian's little hand, hugged Li Zhaodi, pointed at her head with her hand, and said with a smile: "Oh, our Zhaodi is pregnant!"
Pei Zhiqin: "Children grow fast! Zhaodi is considered tall in the dance class now."
"Grandma, I won first prize again in the city competition!"
Li Zhaodi stretched out her voice and spoke sweetly and coquettishly in Wang Ruizhen's arms.
"Zhao Di is amazing!"
Wang Ruizhen was so surprised that her eyes narrowed with laughter.
Pei Zhiqin looked proud of it. She smiled and said, "Zhao Di has a talent for dancing. The teachers from Beijing City all said that she is a natural dancer, so I plan to take her to Beijing City to take an entrance exam for a dance academy when she is older."
"Really? That's great!"
Wang Ruizhen nodded and looked at Li Zhaodi with increasing satisfaction in her eyes.
It was seen that Li Zhaodi had been clinging to Wang Ruizhen like an octopus.
Whenever Wang Ruizhen wanted to talk to Pei Tiantian, she would stop her and interrupt her with all kinds of words.
Pei Tiantian, who had been left out for a long time, finally couldn't help it. She pretended to be aggrieved and said to Wang Ruizhen: "Grandma, my stool is dirty."
Li Zhaodi seemed to have just remembered it. She cried out "Ah" and said guiltily: "I'm sorry, cousin, I stepped on it. I didn't mean to do it!"
Although she apologized, Li Zhaodi's eyes showed no concern at all and there was no trace of guilt at all.
