Chapter Eighty-Five: Encounter
"Thank you," Jia Helian carefully took the chocolate and held it in his arms, "He'er heard that Mother Qian asked someone to peel today, is that you?" ”
She looked at George's retracted hand.
The skin on my hands is much whiter and softer than yesterday.
Qiao Qixin rubbed her wrist and said "um".
"Does it hurt to peel? He seems to hear your cry during the day. Jahoren asked.
"It's super painful, peeling is tearing off a layer of skin on the surface, which is scary and uncomfortable." Qiao Qixin shuddered, not very much wanting to recall the memory of yesterday's torture.
A small hand suddenly squeezed in through the crack in the door.
"Eat?" Ja Helian asked cautiously outside the door.
Qiao Qixin pushed back the chocolate in Jia Helian's hand, "No, I'm an adult, you can keep the candy for yourself." ”
"I'm sorry......" Ja Helian's voice was low, sounding very lost.
"What?" Qiao Qixin didn't understand why Jia Helian suddenly apologized.
Jia He clasped his hands and said guiltily, "If only He'er were a boy, then He'er could manage Jiafu, and there would be no such thing as peeling......"
Qiao Qixin sighed softly, reached out to cover the top of Jia Helian's head, and comforted, "It's not your fault, there's nothing to apologize for." ”
Jahelian shook his head and began to cry again.
"He'er, He'er doesn't want to teach her husband and children for the rest of her life, He'er wants to be like her mother and brother......"
Georgette lowered her eyes.
Although Jia Helian's wording was inaccurate, Qiao Qixin still understood what the child wanted to express.
She wants to be in charge of the house and correct the chaos in the house.
Qiao Qixin stroked Jia Helian's head one by one, and there was a soft touch in the palm of her hand.
Good boy, you shouldn't have been born in this era.
From the moment she decided to open the store, Qiao Qixin was met with countless opposition and doubts.
Because this is the way it is, no woman will show her head out and make money.
As Shopkeeper Wang said, women are not suitable for shopping malls, because there are too many things to restrain women.
Chastity, Female Virtue......
Whoever is tainted will immediately lose the reputation of women.
Georgette was lucky.
She relies on the system to get what she needs to complete her tasks, without having to have too much contact with other people and taking resources from others.
What about other women?
Enter—Tarnish—Mess—Exit
One vicious circle after another, resulting in no women being able to stand out in this system, resulting in no women at the top.
So this is also the reason why Qiao Qixin did not continue to develop the vegetable shop, she didn't want to risk impacting this solid system, she just wanted to be her own shopkeeper and spend her life in peace.
Qiao Qixin looked through the crack in the door, her eyes calmly looking at the girl who was huddled into a ball of small weeping outside the door.
She didn't say anything, just quietly touched Jaholian's head.
But perhaps even she didn't notice it, and a voice gradually rose in the deepest part of her heart.
"If only someone could break it."
——
Qiao Qixin was "adjusted" by Qian's mother for a few days, and because of her excellent and obedient appearance (acting) (skills), she successfully won the trust of Qian's mother.
The most intuitive benefit of this trust is that after the teaching is completed, Qiao Qixin can move around the house, and she doesn't have to live in the leaky black house.
Mother Qian repeatedly told Qiao Qixin not to go to the main hall and Mrs. Jia's courtyard Jia Yulian, let alone have contact with the Jia family.
But Qiao Qixin didn't listen, and after the teaching was completed, she quietly touched the study where Jia Yulian was according to the map provided by the system.
According to the map, Jia Yulian was staying in the study at this time.
But here's the problem, people know where they are, and how to brush their favorability.
Qiao Qixin leaned against the pillar in front of the study, looking tangled.
She rehearsed several pictures of her first meeting with Jia Yulian in her mind, but they were all too outrageous and idealistic, so she passed them all.
Just as she was leaning against the pillar and her head was bald, the door to the study was suddenly opened.
Qiao Qixin was taken aback and subconsciously turned her head.
The sun shines down from the back of her head, shining on her hair that flutters as if it were glowing (see Kamikasam).
Jia Yulian's pupils visibly shrank.
"Who are you?" Jia Yu said.
It's not a good question to answer, and you can't say that you've been abducted.
So Qiao Qixin had an idea and moved Jia Helian out, "I know Miss Helian." ”
Jia Yulian successfully regarded Qiao Qixin as Jia Helian's friend.
"Xiaohe actually has a friend like you, which lady are you?"
Maybe it's because of the long time, or maybe it's because of the peeling, Jia Yulian didn't associate the person in front of him with the village woman half a year ago.
Qiao Qixin did not answer.
Big brother, which lady can you see I am wearing like this?
"Brother, it's time to eat...... Hey? There was a sound of footsteps coming out of the porch, and a little girl with a cute face appeared in the field of vision of the two.
"Are you ......" Jia Helian stood on tiptoe and looked at Qiao Qixin's face carefully, "Sister maid in the hut?" ”
