In the morning, Jiang Shiyue fell asleep and didn't hear the slogans. She only got up when Chen Shanhe came back from getting food and knocked on the door to call her.
Jiang Shiyue yawned and opened the door. Her eyes widened instantly and she woke up.
The small room was packed with people, both men and women, standing or sitting.
The square table was filled with bowls of different sizes, each containing different dishes.
Jiang Shiyue’s first reaction was to go see Chen Shanhe to find out what was going on.
Chen Shanhe pointed to a table full of dishes and said, "This is specially sent to you by everyone."
"What kind of dishes are you sending me?" Jiang Shiyue was still confused. Is this the legendary "hundred-family dishes"? Among them was a dish of stir-fried pork with chili peppers.
Jiang Shiyue asked the question sincerely, but some people in the room thought she was being sarcastic.
Zhang Yan snorted coldly, "Jiang Shiyue, you don't have to be so sarcastic. A three-foot-thick ice doesn't form overnight. It's true that we wronged you this time, but it's also because you're usually untrustworthy that we misunderstood you. We were wrong, but you're not wronged that much."
Zhang Yan's man tugged at her sleeve, and then looked at Jiang Shiyue after stopping her with his eyes. "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, please don't argue with her! We were wrong about what happened yesterday, and we're here to apologize to you. I'm sorry!"
Others followed suit and apologized.
The meaning is roughly the same. The man said that because he didn't believe Jiang Shiyue, he almost harmed her and the thirteen girls. The woman said that she shouldn't have wrongly accused Jiang Shiyue and kicked her out of the compound without knowing the truth.
Jiang Shiyue waved her hand magnanimously to indicate that it was okay.
It's not that she is too tolerant, but the original owner is not a good person. She is just like a shepherd boy. She tells too many lies and does too many bad things. No one believes her when she encounters real problems.
After seeing everyone off, Jiang Shiyue looked at the table full of food and raised her head to ask Chen Shanhe, who was serving food to Yangyang, "Everyone doesn't believe me, why do you believe me?"
Compared with other people in the compound, Chen Shanhe is the real victim of the original owner's lies.
Even the marriage was due to the original owner's lies and frame-up.
He was the last person who should have believed her, but he was the only one who believed her.
Chen Shanhe paused with his chopsticks and said nothing.
Jiang Shiyue: “???”
What does it mean?
Seeing that Jiang Shiyue was determined to get to the bottom of the matter, Chen Shanhe spoke up, "It's better to be safe than sorry."
"Huh?" Jiang Shiyue didn't understand what this meant at once. Did this mean that he didn't believe her either, but was just betting that she wasn't lying or that he was afraid that there really were human traffickers?
Suddenly I felt embarrassed and annoyed.
He was ashamed of himself for bringing disgrace upon himself, and annoyed that Chen Shanhe, a good man, had a mouth.
When Chen Shanhe saw that Jiang Shiyue looked unhappy, he knew that she had misunderstood, but he didn't know how to explain it, so he opened his mouth and closed it again.
Suddenly, the only sound in the room was the sound of chopsticks hitting bowls.
This was how the two of them always ate together. But Chen Shanhe felt very uncomfortable at the moment. He felt that he should say something, but he was not good at speaking. After thinking for a long time, he suddenly put down his chopsticks, stood up, walked to the bed, took out a stack of big unity from under the pillow, and returned to the table and asked Jiang Shiyue, "Is this your money? I found it in Yangyang's pocket when I was washing his clothes last night."
"Yes." Jiang Shiyue nodded, put down her chopsticks and reached out to take it. "I was afraid of running into bad people when walking at night, so I divided the money I earned into several parts and hid some of it with Yangyang."
Who would have thought that I would meet a bad guy.
Chen Shanhe suddenly withdrew his hand.
Jiang Shiyue picked up the air and looked at Chen Shanhe with doubt and questioning eyes.
Chen Shanhe frowned: "Where did this money come from?"
"I made money from selling clothes. Those second-hand clothes."
"A few second-hand clothes can be sold for so much money?" Chen Shanhe was clearly unconvinced. "This is one hundred and sixty yuan!"
Jiang Shiyue couldn't help but roll her eyes. "So what? I made about three hundred yuan yesterday!"
She counted the clothes and found they sold for a total of 299.5 yuan, spending a little over 13 yuan, leaving her with 286.06 yuan.
Chen Shanhe didn't say anything, but doubt was written on his face.
He knew that Jiang Shiyue and Wang Hong were altering clothes. Just a few worn clothes could be sold for three hundred yuan after they were altered?
I'm afraid that people just don't believe it.
Jiang Shiyue raised his palm and said, "Believe it or not, it's up to you! I earned the money, give it back to me."
Chen Shanhe tried to hold back but still couldn't help it, "Jiang Shiyue, our team leader said that you have made great contributions this time and will apply for a reward for you. In the future, you should..." Can you be a good person?
His Adam's apple moved, but he still didn't finish his words.
Just disappointment written on his face.
Jiang Shiyue guessed what he hadn't finished saying, and was too lazy to explain, so she reached out and forcibly took the money out of his hand.
The two men played tug-of-war with banknotes, their eyes silently confronting each other.
In the end, Chen Shanhe was the first to let go of his hand.
Jiang Shiyue grabbed the money and went back to the inner room and slammed the door shut.
She won the fight, but she wasn't happy at all.
Even the officers and soldiers and their families in the compound didn't believe her, but she wasn't sad at all.
But in this period of time, she was hit twice by Chen Shanhe. In addition to being annoyed, she also felt indescribable grievances that made her very uncomfortable.
Jiang Shiyue comforted herself that everyone who traveled through time or was reborn would have an unhappy novice period, and it would be fine when she became stronger. Anyway, she would not spend her whole life with Chen Shanhe.
This kind of straight man is only fit to be single!
Jiang Shiyue looked down at the money in her hand and quickly put aside the unpleasantness between her and Chen Shanhe. No one should think of becoming a stumbling block on her road to making money.
Jiang Shiyue took out the money in his pocket and the money hidden in the textbook and counted them carefully again.
This money is almost enough to buy a bicycle as compensation to the Liu family.
There were only a few thin spring and summer clothes left in the wooden box, and the rest were thick autumn clothes and cotton coats for winter.
If she spends all her money on the bicycle, what will she do next?
Jiang Shiyue, who couldn't think of a solution for a long time, scratched her hair in frustration. Her eyes accidentally swept across the envelope that fell in the corner of the wall, and her eyes lit up and a plan came to her mind.
She jumped out of bed and grabbed the few remaining clothes in the wooden box before opening the door.
Chen Shanhe was no longer in the room, and the untouched food on the table was covered with bowls and plates.
There was a piece of paper pressed against the bottom of the plate.
Jiang Shiyue raised her eyebrows, hesitated for a moment, and then picked up the note.
"I'm sorry! I don't believe Jiang Shiyue, but I do believe you."
Jiang Shiyue snorted and threw the note down. Where is the tongue twister?
After taking two steps, he suddenly turned his head and picked up the note again.
What does Chen Shanhe mean?
Do you know that she is not the original owner?
