Chapter 38 Gifts(1/2)

Aunt Tang was rushed to the hospital.

Tang Daqiang hired a locksmith to change all the door locks.

As for compensation, no one wants compensation. After all, everyone is not short of the 100 yuan. All they want is an attitude.

Now that Tang Daqiang has relented and apologized to everyone, this matter is over.

After breakfast, Liu Jie came to Wu Xiaomei's flower shop to work as usual. He told Wu Xiaomei everything about the morning. Wu Xiaomei just responded briefly without saying much.

As for what happened yesterday, Wu Xiaomei didn't mention a word, as if it never happened.

But her red and swollen eyes were undoubtedly telling Liu Jie that she didn't sleep well at all last night, and her eyes were swollen from crying.

No explanation, no words, Wu Xiaomei did her own thing silently.

The back is thin and lonely.

I don’t know why Liu Jie actually feels sorry for her.

I even suspected that all of this was Wang Hai's fault.

Wu Xiaomei is so simple, like a blank piece of paper.

After everything was packed, Wu Xiaomei took Liu Jie to the nursing home on the outskirts of the city.

All flowers in the nursing home are provided by Wu Xiaomei for free.

Not only are there a variety of flower arrangements, but there are also many potted plants.

The old people's love for flowers far exceeds Liu Jie's imagination.

Life in a nursing home is boring, and growing flowers has become one of their few joys. They do everything by themselves, including building, watering, and fertilizing, and they enjoy it.

In particular, an old lady named Aunt Mei, who is nearly ninety years old, still gets up on time to water the flowers every day.

Wu Xiaomei also took special care of Aunt Mei. Not only did she send her flowers, she also brought the old lady a box of her favorite pastries.

After placing the flowers, Wu Xiaomei went to cook for the old people herself, and the old people who were busy and happy applauded her again and again.

Liu Jie followed Aunt Mei to take care of the new succulent. Aunt Mei kept praising Wu Xiaomei for how outstanding she was, which made Liu Jie's ears almost go numb.

"Young man, you have to work harder. Meimei is a good child, but she has a very high vision and is also very sensitive. You must be patient..."

Aunt Mei took Liu Jie's hand and looked him up and down, her eyes were looking at her grandson-in-law.

"Grandma, you misunderstood. I'm just an employee in her store. She has a boyfriend." Liu Jie said with some embarrassment.

"Boyfriend? Where did she get her boyfriend?"

"Doesn't she have a boyfriend?" Liu Jie was very surprised. Last time Wu Xiaomei swore that she had a boyfriend. Was she lying?

"No, I asked her about it last week. Meimei seems innocent, but she has a very high level of vision, and she can't even look down on ordinary people."

"She really doesn't look down on most people. The only one she likes is her brother-in-law." Liu Jie couldn't help but tease in his heart.

Aunt Mei seemed to see through Liu Jie's thoughts and asked with a smile: "Have you also heard about the scandal between her and her brother-in-law?"

Liu Jie's silence was regarded as acquiescence.

"Young man, let me tell you, those are all lies. Xiaohai and Meimei are not from the same world at all. Xiaohai has a cheerful and lively personality, while Meimei is much quieter. I have heard about their stories.

But you believe me, those are all false, Xiaoxia’s death has nothing to do with her, this is what Meimei told me personally.”

"Grandma, how do you know these things?" Liu Jie couldn't help but ask.

"Because I am Xiaohai's grandma."

Liu Jie opened his mouth and was so surprised that he couldn't say anything for a long time. He didn't expect that Aunt Mei was actually Wang Hai's grandmother.

Aunt Mei let out a long sigh and said with some sadness: "We, the Wang family, are sorry for Mei Mei and Xiaoxia. She has no relationship with me but she treats me like a relative. I don't know what kind of virtue I have accumulated in my previous life to be able to know Mei Mei."

Such an outstanding girl as Mei would have left Jiangbei long ago if it weren't for me."

"Where is your family? Don't they come to see you?" Liu Jie asked.

"Come?" Aunt Mei couldn't help laughing. "In their eyes, I am a burden. Taking care of me takes time and effort, so they put me in a nursing home. This is where people end up. When they were young, they worked hard to raise their children.

When you grow old, you are abandoned by your children. What do you want to do with your life?"

Aunt Mei looked at the distance with sadness written all over her old face.

Her family did not take her seriously and even wished she would die soon.

Although he has children, he lives like a lonely old man.

This is not the case for other people here. Many of them have children, but their children have sent them here for various reasons.

You keep saying you don’t have time to work, but they are all excuses.

Although the old lady endorsed it, Liu Jie still couldn't let go.

But then he thought about it and felt like an idiot.

Wu Xiaomei and Wang Hai are not the same person.

Then aren't they the same?

He is not even as good as Wang Hai, why should he have thoughts about Wu Xiaomei?

The reason why Wu Xiaomei lied was simply because she didn't want him to have too many thoughts.

At this moment, Liu Jie's cell phone suddenly rang.

When I picked it up, I was surprised to find that it was a call from my mother. I quickly walked to the side to answer it.

"Xiaojie, I received the color TV you bought. It must have cost a lot of money. I just talked about it casually last time, but I didn't expect you to actually buy it. Don't do this next time."

My mother's tone on the phone was particularly exciting, and the background sound was filled with the laughter of the neighbors.

But Liu Jie was stupid because he had never bought a color TV at all!

Liu Jie has been very miserable since he came out. He didn't even buy a rice cooker, let alone a color TV.

The old color TV set at home has been used for more than ten years. Liu Jie has long wanted to replace it with a new color TV set, but he has never taken action due to lack of money.

For this reason, he also collected many color TV sets in his shopping cart.

So where did color TV come from?

"Mom, who sent the color TV?" Liu Jie asked quickly.

"Courier, didn't you buy it online? They delivered it directly to your door and were also responsible for installation. It's so big. I heard it costs more than three thousand."

Bought online?

Could it be that I placed the order accidentally?

Liu Jie quickly opened a certain treasure, clicked on the shopping cart and saw that several color TVs were still lying motionless in the shopping cart.

In other words, he definitely didn’t buy the color TV?

So who would be so kind as to buy a color TV for himself?

What's even more terrifying is how did he know he wanted to buy a color TV?

An ominous premonition came quickly, and Liu Jie's heart kept beating. Not only was he unhappy when he suddenly got a color TV, but he became more and more uneasy.

"Mom, have you met any strange people recently?" Liu Jie asked in a deep voice.

"Weird person? No."

"What about the guests? Has any stranger called you besides me?"

"No, son, did something happen to you?"

"No, I'm just asking. If anyone strange comes to you, you must call me. Do you understand?"

"Don't worry, Mom will be fine, but it's you. How are you doing recently? Have you been promoted?"

"I got promoted, I'm fine, don't worry."

"That's good. Don't buy things for your family when you have money in the future. Save it and buy a house and marry a wife. By the way, your cousin's daughter will come back in a while. If you have the chance, you must have a good chat.

chat."

"Okay, I understand, that's it."

Liu Jie hung up the phone in a hurry. At this moment, he was no longer in the mood to talk about anything else.

Not far away, Wu Xiaomei was talking to Aunt Mei.

The two of them raised their heads to look at Liu Jie from time to time. Wu Xiaomei's expression was a little shy, as if they were talking about something private.

Could it be that Wu Xiaomei bought the color TV?

No, not her.

As soon as Liu Jie came up with this idea, he was immediately rejected. Although he showed Wu Xiaomei's ID card, he didn't mention anything about the color TV, so Wu Xiaomei would never know.

If not Wu Xiaomei, who would it be?

Gao Yubao?

This guy seems to know a lot about his past.
