However, Li Junxian would come over from time to time, sometimes bringing Ah Li dried meat, sometimes boiled eggs, and sometimes candy.
Ah Li was always embarrassed, unsure whether to accept the gift or not. Aunt Niu seemed to have seen through Li Junxian's little scheme.
That day, when it was time to finish work, Aunt Niu pulled Ali back home, saying, "Come on, let's go to Auntie's house for a while."
