Chapter 6: Encounter with a thief
Seeing that both of them were dressed so ceremoniously, Si Xiaohui's face was not very happy, if this was placed in ancient times, it would be the gap between the young lady and the maid.
However, the conditions at home are not good, Lin Fengying has never bought her decent clothes, and she is still a dress that she bought two years ago to support the faΓ§ade, and she is reluctant to wear it at home.
The good mood instantly changed a lot, and Si Xiaohui said with a straight face: "It's just to go shopping in the city, and it's not a blind date, why are you doing such a grand ceremony?" β
"That's what I usually wear." Zhang Lijuan looked at Tong Yao with a smile, "It's my sister-in-law, I'm dressed up so beautifully, so I went to the city to see Brother Chen, right?" β
If she didn't know that Zhang Lijuan was thinking about Si Chen, Tong Yao wouldn't think there was anything wrong with her words, but after knowing that Zhang Lijuan liked Si Chen, it didn't sound right.
"I didn't deliberately dress up, but I was slim and good-looking, and my temperament couldn't cover it."
Si Xiaohui's face was full of disgust, and he muttered, "Don't be ashamed." "How can anyone boast about himself like this, shouldn't normal people be humble?
Usually Zhang Lijuan has never been in contact with Tong Yao, but she always heard Si Xiaohui complain that Tong Yao was lazy and lazy, but now when she heard this, she immediately smiled, in the eyes of the older generation in her mouth, Tong Yao is a lack of tendons, her brain is not bright, and she can't even hear what people mean.
Just now, I was a little jealous that Tong Yao was good-looking, but now Zhang Lijuan felt comfortable again.
"Let's stop standing here, my uncle will drive the tractor over, let's go to the village entrance and wait first!"
Lin Fengying sent the three of them to the entrance of the village, and repeatedly told the two of them not to run around when they arrived in the city, not to talk to strangers, and completely treated them as children, Si Xiaohui was a little impatient, but Tong Yao felt very warm, she grew up in a welfare home in her previous life, and no one really cared about her.
"Mom, don't be verbose, go back quickly! We're not kids anymore. Si Xiaohui impatiently pushed Lin Fengying back, she had been controlled by her mother since she was a child, and going to the city was like a bird flying out of a cage, Si Xiaohui felt a kind of free happiness, and she couldn't wait to grow a pair of wings and fly directly to the city.
"You kid." Lin Fengying was a little helpless, and told Tong Yao to pay attention to safety on the road, so she turned her head and went home step by step.
"Auntie is so good to you." Zhang Lijuan said sourly.
"No, I'm her daughter-in-law." Tong Yao deliberately focused on the last three words.
"Now doesn't mean it always is." Without Lin Fengying present, Si Xiaohui spoke mercilessly, and said angrily: "My brother won't like a lazy woman." β
"But your brother must like pretty women." Tong Yao didn't let her either.
"Shameless."
Si Xiaohui muttered, turned his head and chatted happily with Zhang Lijuan.
They didn't pay attention to Tong Yao, and Tong Yao didn't take the initiative to take care of them, and the three of them stood at the entrance of the village for a long time, and they heard a 'click' sound of a diesel tractor.
"Uncle." Zhang Lijuan greeted the man who drove the tractor affectionately, her face was full of pride and display, these years there are very few people who have a tractor at home, and the daughter-in-law is picked up by ten miles and eight villages.
Liu Dazhu's eyes flowed around the three little girls, "All three of you are going to the city?" β
"Yes." Zhang Lijuan took out a dollar from her pocket and stuffed it to Liu Dazhu, "My mother said that you have to pay for fuel when you take the car." β
Liu Dazhu didn't want it at first, but after the two of them tugged at it, they reluctantly accepted it.
Zhang Lijuan didn't mention the money before, Si Xiaohui was a little confused, and when she saw Tong Yao take out a dollar and hand it to Liu Dazhu, she followed and took a dollar out, thinking that she didn't buy anything, and the travel expenses cost a dollar, and she suddenly felt distressed.
There were already three people sitting in the tractor body, two women in their forties, and a man in their fifties, they were all sitting on the small bench in the car, and they saw Zhang Lijuan and Si Xiaohui Mali getting into the car, but Tong Yao was still climbing on the car with her skirt pulled, the man said.
"You two pull a sister!"
As soon as they heard this, Si Xiaohui and Zhang Lijuan lowered their faces at the same time, Tong Yao is fair-skinned and delicate, and she does look young, but they are all little girls, who likes others to say that they are old?
"She's married, a year older than us." Zhang Lijuan said.
The man looked at Tong Yao in surprise, thinking to himself, this little girl got married a little early.
Si Xiaohui pointed the finger at Tong Yao, "Who is like you, married and dressed like a little girl." β
Tong Yao's ears were buzzing with the noisy sound of the tractor, and she didn't have the heart to take care of the two, her little waist hurt from the bumpy mud road, but fortunately, the surrounding scenery was good, which distracted some attention.
After tossing for almost an hour, he finally arrived in the city, Liu Dazhu explained that Zhang Lijuan was still here at three o'clock in the afternoon, and then drove a tractor to the post office to do business.
Tong Yao stretched her waist, and under Si Xiaohui's weird gaze, she did a few stretching movements, felt that her arms and legs were more comfortable, and then asked, "I'm going to the hospital to find Si Chen, where are you going?" β
Zhang Lijuan helped her waist, "I've not felt well lately and want to go to the hospital to see a doctor." β
Si Xiaohui said: "It just so happens that I will also go to see my brother together." β
In fact, Tong Yao had long known that Zhang Lijuan wanted to go to Si Chen, and she asked this on purpose.
The three of them had the same purpose, so they didn't have to part ways, so they got on a bus to the hospital directly, there were a lot of people on the bus, the seats were full, the three girls were squeezed to the back, there were some young men on the bus, and they kept peeking at her since Tong Yao got on the bus.
Beautiful things are really eye-catching, and she has to get used to them.
After the car stopped for a stop, a few people got on and off the car, and an aunt holding a pet dog, and a man in his thirties, his appearance can be described as oil and gas in the eyes of thieves and rats, and the man's eyes have been looking around in the car after getting on the car, and he has never stopped at all.
The pet dog in the aunt's arms has also been staring at the man vigilantly, and it seems that the man is not a good person.
After sitting for two stops, a woman in her thirties suddenly let out an exclamation, "I lost my money, there are thieves in the car." β
Everyone in the car was attracted by her words, and even the driver became vigilant and parked the car on the side of the road, but did not open the door, "Sister, are you sure that the money was lost in the car?" β
"I lost it in the car." The woman's expression was anxious, and her tone was very affirmative: "When I got on the bus to pay the fare, the money was still there." β
Everyone hurriedly checked their wallets and kept a distance from the woman, for fear of being relied upon, Si Xiaohui and Zhang Lijuan's first reaction was also to check their wallets, and when they touched the money, they both breathed a sigh of relief, it's okay if someone else's money is lost, as long as they don't lose their money.
