Feng Yanhong quickened her pace, and Zheng Qiaozhen had no way of keeping up, so she could only watch the two of them leave.
Zheng Qiaozhen stood there dumbly, her eyebrows furrowed, and a sense of grievance welled up in her heart...
She was right!
"Hi, little sister, are you a relative of the Li family or the Feng family?"
Geng Qiang carried a shoe shine box on his back and scanned the area with his eyes. When he saw the law enforcement officers leaving, he dared to come closer.
Zheng Qiaozhen looked back and saw Geng Qiang with a bad expression. She had seen this man on the overpass, a stinky shoe shiner.
"What does it have to do with you?!"
Then I thought again, he knew his last name, which meant he knew him!
Aren’t friends of friends also friends?
"You know them both too?"
"We know each other, why don't we know each other?"
"We live in the same alley and have known each other since we were children!"
"Li Boshan always followed me around when he was little and asked me to play with him. Do you think we know each other?"
Geng Qiang bared his yellow teeth and smiled in a meaningful way.
Zheng Qiaozhen looked suddenly enlightened, and her eyes lit up.
We've been playing together since we were little and now we're grown up. It's not an ordinary relationship.
"Is that so? Let's get to know each other, then? My name is Zheng Qiaozhen. My relationship with Sister Yanhong is very good. We can take care of each other in the future."
"This name is really nice. My name is Geng Qiang. We will take care of each other from now on."
Geng Qiang smiled sheepishly and said, "Let me help you carry it. I think you are carrying quite a heavy load."
"Okay, thank you, you are such a good person." Zheng Qiaozhen's tone was sincere, her eyes full of joy.
"From now on, you can follow me to set up a stall. I am familiar with this area. I know where to set it up and when to set it up."
****
Li Boshan quickly chased after Feng Yanhong, the corners of his mouth slightly raised with a smile.
Yanhong's temper is still the same as when she was a child.
"Okay, let's not be angry anymore." Li Boshan grabbed Feng Yanhong, took her into his arms, and comforted her.
"I don't have to worry about her anymore, she already looks down on others!"
Zheng Qiaozhen thought so, and others must have thought so too. They all felt that she was supporting Li Boshan in school and that she was supporting Li Boshan.
But the reality is not what they thought.
Even if she doesn't do business, he can still support the family!
"We don't care what other people think. We can't control what others say. Well, there's no need to be angry."
"Whatever they want to say, let them say it!"
In fact, he doesn't care what others say at all, as long as his wife knows what kind of person he is.
What does what others say have to do with him?
"That won't work. Three people are like tigers. If one or two people say this about you, won't everyone think that I am the one raising you?"
How ugly is the word "eat soft rice"?
If this spreads, how will he get along with others in school?
"What are you afraid of? I don't care about this. They only dare to talk behind their backs."
"Besides, you were the one raising me in the first place, so there's nothing wrong with that."
No one else is so lucky! What can't he listen to?
Those people are just jealous.
"Tsk~ you..."
"Okay, okay, let's not be angry, aren't we tired? Let's go home early and rest, and don't listen to their nonsense."
Feng Yanhong looked at him for a long time, as if she was not unhappy at all.
People have spoken so harshly, does he really not care at all?
"Didn't you say you wanted to eat snacks last time? Go back early and go to Zhou's shop to buy them for you."
"Buy two kilograms, we have a lot of family members."
She has been particularly craving for dim sum lately, especially the ones stuffed with red dates. The sweetness is a little bit sour, giving her an endless aftertaste.
She bought a portion a few days ago, but she only ate two pieces. Thinking about it now, her mouth was filled with sour water.
"Okay!" Li Boshan rubbed her head lovingly.
"Let's go home."
"Um!"
He's right, why should you care what others say?
People who are close to him naturally know what he is like, and time will prove everything.
That was never what he cared about, and his life should not be disturbed by such gossip.
After Feng Yanhong returned home, she felt sleepy looking at the account book, so she simply threw the account book aside, lay on the bed and fell asleep in a daze.
Li Boshan carried two bags of snacks and entered the house. The yard was extremely quiet. Even the second grandfather's birds were not in the yard.
"Mom, snack..."
"Shh~ your wife is asleep, please keep your voice down." Ji Shuying picked the vegetables and made a silent gesture for him, keeping her voice very low.
"Oh, I'll give you a pack of snacks. I'll keep this pack for Yan Hong." Li Boshan also lowered his voice.
"If I had known that doing business was so tiring, I shouldn't have allowed her to make the business so big. Look at how tired your wife is these days. She feels sleepy when she looks at the sky, and her face doesn't look too good."
"You can help me more if you can, do you hear me?"
"I know mom."
His wife-in-law doesn’t seem to be too busy recently. Was it because she opened a factory before...
"I'll go in and take a look."
"Don't go in. I just went in to take a look. I was sleeping soundly. Don't wake others up."
"You go on another trip to the market to buy a chicken and come back. Make some chicken soup for Yanhong to drink at night to replenish her body."
After all, girls' physical strength is not as good as that of boys. Yanhong's appetite has not been very good recently. It must be because she can't eat anything good outside.
"Okay." Li Boshan put down his snacks and rode his tricycle out the door.
Feng Yanhong was awakened by the smell of chicken soup at night. When she opened her eyes, it was already evening.
There is still a pinch of red clouds on the horizon, and the sky is getting dark.
Why does she sleep so much lately?
It seems that I have never been like this before. I was so tired when I opened my own shop in my previous life, so it would be better to just take a nap.
Where does this little workload come from?
Feng Yanhong got up, dressed and combed her hair before leaving the house.
The moment I opened the door, I suddenly felt that the chicken soup tasted so greasy...
"Yanhong wakes up, let's take a shower and then we can eat." Ji Shuying came out of the kitchen carrying a large basin of yellow chicken soup.
"Mom specially made chicken soup for you today..."
Ji Shuying put the chicken soup on the table, turned around and was stunned for a moment.
Feng Yanhong frowned slightly, her mouth pursed into a thin line, and her face was pale as if she was in pain.
"What's going on?"
Feng Yanhong didn't know what was wrong with her, she just felt very uncomfortable, her stomach was greasy, and she felt like vomiting...
Really unable to bear it anymore, Feng Yanhong shook her head, covered her mouth and nose and ran out.
"Boshan! Boshan! Go and see your wife."
"Ah? What's wrong?" Li Boshan, who was lighting the fire in the kitchen, rushed out. He watched Feng Yanhong running out and quickly followed her.
Ji Shuying thought for a moment and patted her thigh, "Hey~ I'm afraid you're pregnant, right?"
