Chapter 28
After receiving the call, Shen Weiwei went downstairs and came to the gate of the community. She looked at the people outside the door and asked, “Who are you?”
Du Jiajia: "My mother is a friend of Grandma Li, and she wanted me to come and see Grandma Li."
Shen Weiwei asked hesitantly: “Who is your mother?”
Du Jiajia smiled: "Sister, don't you recognize me? I am Xu Xinyue's daughter, Du Jiajia. When I was a child, you gave me snacks."
Shen Weiwei thought of Xu Xinyue, a woman with a hard mouth but a soft heart. She smiled and said, “Jia Jia, long time no see. You’ve grown up so much.”
Du Jiajia: "Yeah, I've grown up a lot."
Shen Weiwei: “It’s really not my fault that I didn’t recognize you, you’ve become so beautiful.”
Du Jiajia said embarrassedly: "I didn't become prettier, I just lost some weight."
Shen Weiwei: “Come in quickly, don’t talk at the door, let’s go home and talk, Auntie will make you…you guys something delicious.”
The security guard opened the door of the community sideways and pulled it as wide as possible. Du Jiajia and the others walked in. Shen Weiwei smiled at the security guard and said, "Thank you, big brother."
The security guard smiled: "It's okay."
When they arrived at Shen Weiwei's house, they sat on the sofa. Shen Weiwei made tea for them, took out paper cups from the drawer, and placed one in front of each of them.
Lin An looked at the house. There was nothing special about it, but she smelled an unpleasant smell and frowned.
Gu Yuan quietly reached out and tugged at the corner of Lin An's clothes. Lin An looked at her and silently asked what was wrong.
Gu Yuan raised his hand and pointed at the God of Wealth placed on the bookshelf. Lin An then realized that it was the incense offered in front of the God of Wealth that was emitting the smell.
Is it pungent? The fragrance is burning with the desires of the human heart. When they smell it, it is like eating big mouthfuls of greasy fat meat.
The more and greater a person's desires are, the more oil will come out of the incense offered to the gods.
Feifei stopped her mouth and nose, but the incense smell still entered her body. She couldn't help it, so she stood up and said, "Is it okay if I go out and see the scenery?"
Shen Weiwei paused while pouring the water and replied to her, “Of course, but don’t go too far. You are not familiar with this place and it’s easy to get lost.”
She stood up and hurried out. Shen Weiwei turned around and asked, "Does your friend want to go to the toilet? There is no public toilet in the community."
Lin An: "It's okay, she might be a little bored."
Du Jiajia: "Sister, don't worry about her, she won't get lost."
Shen Weiwei: “That’s good, if you want to go to the toilet, our toilet is fine.”
Du Jiajia smiled, picked up the tea and took a sip, "It's a very fragrant tea, very delicious."
Gu Yuan: "Sister, what kind of incense do you burn at home? It smells so good."
Shen Weiwei: "It's my husband. He bought some incense to worship the God of Wealth. Our family runs a small business, so he believes in this."
Du Jiajia: "Sister, be modest. My mother said that you are all doing big business."
Shen Weiwei: “Is your mother okay?”
Du Jiajia: "Very good."
Shen Weiwei: “I’ve always wanted to see her again, but I don’t know if she’s willing.”
"Is there anything I can agree or not?" Du Jiajia nodded and said, "My mother should agree."
Shen Weiwei crossed her legs and said, “That’s not necessarily true. Your mother has always used me as a negative example.”
Du Jiajia didn’t know about this. Could it be that her mother said something bad and was caught by Shen Weiwei? She hurriedly explained: “My mother often says things without meaning them. Sister, if she said anything, don’t take it to heart.”
Shen Weiwei: "She said I was stupid, that I just liked to trust men. I was deceived twice, but I was still stupid. I have seen so many men, but my vision is still so bad. I think she is right."
Du Jiajia: "Ah."
Shen Weiwei smiled: “Don’t be afraid, I really think she is right, I just don’t know people well.”
After she finished speaking, there was a knock on the door. It was the same security guard from before, staggering in carrying a drunk man.
Shen Weiwei hurried forward, wanting to take it from him, “Why are you drinking for so long again?”
Li Jinghua: "Is it okay if I don't drink since they're treating me? If I don't drink, my business will be in jeopardy."
She raised one arm, but found it was too heavy. The security guard said, "Let me carry him inside the room."
Shen Weiwei: “Sorry to bother you.”
The security guard carried Li Jinghua into one of the rooms, put him down, and said, "I'm leaving."
Shen Weiwei: "Thank you so much, brother, you helped me again."
"It's nothing. I'm leaving now. Just wipe him well."
Shen Weiwei hummed, looked at the drunk man on the bed, skillfully put the trash can next to him, and took off his shoes and clothes.
Li Jinghua turned over uncomfortably, lay on the edge of the bed, and vomited into the trash can.
Shen Weiwei waited for him to finish vomiting, cleaned up the trash can, put a new trash bag on it, and still put it next to it.
Li Jinghua: "I saw my son today, and he ignored me. I really raised an ungrateful person."
Shen Weiwei knew why he drank so much today. Ever since her son went to college, he had been drifting further and further away from them, and no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't pull him back. In the past, he could come back a few times by giving him money, but now the money was useless.
They have been heartbroken because of their son's absence. Shen Weiwei: "Then don't drink so much."
Li Jinghua: "I want to drink, don't worry about it."
Shen Weiwei went to the living room to pour him a glass of water. When she saw the person on the sofa, she remembered that there were guests at home. "Sorry, can you come tomorrow?"
"Grandma won't be back until dark. Jiajia wants to see her. I'll tell her today and ask her not to go out tomorrow and wait for you at home."
Du Jiajia hesitated and said, "Okay...Okay."
Shen Weiwei: “If you have nothing else to do, I will take you downstairs, the road is the same as the one you came from just now.”
Du Jiajia didn't respond, so Lin An asked bluntly: "Do you know Shen Chenzhou?"
Shen Weiwei paused. She hadn't heard this name for a long time, really a long time. She thought she had forgotten it, but it turned out she hadn't.
Shen Weiwei said coldly: “I don’t know what you are talking about? I don’t know him.”
Lin An: “You guys…”
"Get out, everyone, get out now." Shen Weiwei sneered, "Since you are not here to be a guest sincerely, leave quickly. If you don't leave, don't blame me for taking action. Then no one will be dignified."
Lin An's eyes turned cold, and Du Jiajia hurriedly said, "Let's go, let's go now."
She took another step towards Lin An and whispered, "Sister An, can you please give me some face? She knows my mother, and I'm afraid she might say something bad to her, and then I'll be in trouble."
Gu Yuan: "Sister An."
Lin An hummed, turned around and followed them out. Just as they reached the door, she stopped, turned her head and said, "Don't worship this. Pray to his photo and anything you want will come true."
Shen Weiwei didn't answer. After everyone left, she just slumped down on the sofa in a daze, and only stood up again when she heard the sound of vomiting in the bedroom.
