BTTS 507

 Chapter 507. Long had enough

The weather in May was already very warm. Lin Qing He ate a popsicle directly after she got out of work.

Zhou Qing Bai was feeling a little helpless and just looked at her.

Lin Qing He said, "I'm only having one. It's too hot." It would be great if there was an air conditioner. She felt it will be very hot this summer.

Zhou Qing Bai didn't say anything. He made a plate of Liangpi for her to eat. He sprinkled a bit of sour diced cucumber, which made it really refreshing and delicious.

Lin Qing He demolished it without hesitation. She smilingly chatted with Aunt Ma: "Young Liu's craftsmanship is really good. The steamed cake sold very well. Every day, four baskets of steamed cake can be sold out."

Aunt Ma was delighted.

At the end of last year, Zhou Qing Bai had given her a long vacation. It allowed her to pack her things and go to the border area with her partner to see her eldest son and his family.

Although the conditions there weren't as good as here, but the life was stable. Aunt Ma was very pleased and can be considered as completely feeling rest assured.

After she came back, she learned that not only was she given a holiday, but her son was also given a few more days of holiday. It let the family go back to the village to live for a good few days.

More importantly, she made a few baskets of steamed cakes every day and sold them here. It didn’t make much money. Those baskets of steamed cakes cost five dimes per a basket. Four baskets of steamed cakes cost two yuan. Huang Xiao Liu made about five dime profit a day. In a one month, she earned fifteen.

But with this steamed cake business, Huang Xiao Liu's spirit changed.

Aunt Ma grinned, "It's all thanks to Teacher Lin's care for her."

Lin Qing He smiled: "For me to take care of her, she got to have the ability first."

Huang Xiao Liu earned a little bit and the shop can also earn a little bit. It can be regarded as a win-win business.

Aunt Ma told her about the people in the community. There were a lot of jealous people, including those who had spoke ill of Huang Xiao Liu. Their words were filled with sourness.

"There will be gossips wherever there are people. Let Xiao Liu think it through. We are upright. It's not a big deal," Lin Qing He responded.

"Ain't that reasoning right? Before, I spoke and it didn't get to her. Now she is busy with this matter, her mind got back on track." Aunt Ma said.

In fact, she also felt that her daughter-in-law was a little solemn last year. But she didn't know what to say. It needed her to open her mind first.

Lin Qing He changed the subject and chatted with Aunt Ma for a while. Then she went home to rest first. This afternoon her colleague asked her to swap one class. There were three classes. Not an easy load.

She saw Zhang Mei Lian as soon as she came back. Zhang Mei Lian smiled sweetly when she saw her: "Auntie."

Lin Qing He glanced at her, turned around and went back to her home. She didn't respond.

"What are you showing her good attitude?" Mrs. Zhang harrumphed when she saw it.

She was pining for Lin Qing He to look upon their relationship as neighbors and take care of her. Like when there's a position, arrange it for her. But until now there was no news.

So, Mrs. Zhang gave up hope. Naturally, she saw the situation clearly.

She was willing to give someone like Huang Xiao Liu an opportunity. While she ignored her. Can she not understand? What was the point of buttering up?

"We're neighbors after all." Zhang Mei Lian said.

In fact, what she wanted was recognition from old Zhou Family. Then she and Xu Sheng Qiang can be justifiably be together.

Right now, she had enough. Since the beginning of the year, Xu Sheng Mei had been watching her and Xu Sheng Qiang so closely that she can no longer go to Xu Sheng Qiang's side.

Of course, Xu Sheng Qiang couldn't sit still. He came all the way to her rented room.

After so long, Xu Sheng Mei still won't budge. Last time she hired a worker and wanted to work separately from her.

In more ugly terms, she wanted to kick her away and make her stay away from her brother.

Fortunately, Xu Sheng Qiang refused to allow it and Xu Sheng Mei couldn't drive her away. If not, she really couldn't keep going.

However, Zhang Mei Lian was also guilty. Because until now, she hadn't been able to be pregnant with Xu Sheng Qiang's child. She had checked it out in the hospital. The hospital said it won't easy to get pregnant. But it wasn't impossible.

She still didn't get pregnant.

She didn't know if it was Xu Sheng Qiang's problem!

Of course, Zhang Mei Lian didn't dare to say this. She could only take medicine and hope that she would be pregnant sooner.

"Alright. I'll go back first." Zhang Mei Lian was also feeling annoyed, so she came back.

When she came to the shop, Xu Sheng Qiang happened to be there. Xu Sheng Mei swept her a glance and said directly: "This shop can't afford too many people. It is not worthwhile to cooperate with you like this. When will you leave?"

"Sister, will you stop!" Xu Sheng Qiang gritted his teeth.

Zhang Mei Lian's face turned pale and looked at Xu Sheng Mei: "Sheng Mei, do you have to kick me away like this? I have always tried my best to serve in this shop."

How can she be happy to leave like this? Nowadays, the business was very good. She can get 300 yuan a month. How much was this? Where can she go to make so much money?

Every month she can change into two new clothes and new shoes. These were all for money.

"Mei Lian has put in so much effort in this shop, Sister. You have to drive her away?" Xu Sheng Qiang was enraged.

Xu Sheng Mei's face was dark: "When did it become your turn to teach me? I'm talking to her!"

Zhang Mei Lian seduced her brother. Don't think she didn't know the two of them were still in an unclear relationship even until now. How could she allow it?

"Now that you are married to Zhao Family, you have money. So you look down on me, your brother, right? Alright, you can manage this shop by yourself. Do you think only your side have the goods? Other places also have it! "Xu Sheng Qiang gritted his teeth.

After speaking, he took Zhang Mei Lian away.

"Where are you going?" Xu Sheng Mei chased after angrily and said.

"You don't need to worry about where I go!" Xu Sheng Qiang finished speaking and took Zhang Mei Lian away.

Zhang Mei Lian was caught off-guard. After walking a distance, she said, "Why did you leave? Do you know how much the shop makes in a month? How can we go like this?"

"What are you worried about? I still have hundreds of yuans in my hand. It is enough for us to spend a while. Her goods are bought from a cousin-in-law of mine. She can buy, we can also buy. Let's go find a shop and open one by ourselves. It's not much better than going to her side. Don't have to look at her face all the time. I have enough!" Xu Sheng Qiang disgruntledly uttered.

He thought how well life was last year? He lived with Zhang Mei Lian. Although he and Zhang Mei Lian hadn't broken up, he had to go to find her in the middle of the night and come back early the next morning before his sister came since the beginning of this year.

Xu Sheng Qiang had long had enough of this.

It was him who was dating. What did it had to do with his sister? She insisted on obstructing them? Was it annoying or not?

Zhang Mei Lian was moved by what he said: "What you said is true?"
