Chapter 24
Chapter 23, Teach Her a Lesson
At around four o’clock, Li Yong had to go back to the hotel to get busy, so he left.
In the evening, Li Xu went to the market to ask around. She wanted to rent a stall. In the past few days, she had been selling fruits and had become a familiar face.
Who knew that the market here was so popular that all the stalls were full.
The person in charge also had a headache, “I’ve been asking a lot recently, but the stall is limited after all. This year’s stalls have all been rented out. If you want to come over, you can only come over early next year to pay.”
After hearing this news, Li Xu had been in a low mood ever since she returned home.
Ji Yuanyuan had followed her there, so he naturally knew what Li Xu was worried about.
“Mom, it’s alright. Didn’t that uncle say that he only wants our vegetables in the future? And Second Uncle, his hotel also needs to buy vegetables.”
Li Xu forced herself to cheer up and smiled helplessly, “Alright, when our vegetables are ready, I’ll send them over to that Uncle.”
As for Li Yong, Li Xuqiang did not want to involve him.
After all, she also knew that larger hotels had their own procurement staff.
Li Yong was just a small chef. If he had anything to do with procurement, he might be found out by others.
It was not easy for him to find such a job, and Li Xu did not want to mess it up for him because of her own matters.
At night, Ji Yuanyuan had some insomnia. It was precisely because she had received Qin Mucheng’s letter during the day that he learned that Qin Mucheng would be coming over for a period of time during the winter vacation. For some reason, she was looking forward to it.
The next morning, she almost can not wake up.
When she woke up, it was already past eight in the morning.
Ji Yuanyuan hurriedly pulled Li Xu into his space. After picking some peaches, they went to the market.
However, because they woke up late today, Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang happened to bump into them when they left the house.
Ji Zixuan saw that Li Xu was struggling to carry a bamboo basket by herself, so he insisted on going with her.
On the way, with the help of the two children, it was indeed much easier.
It was still the same old place. Li Xu took out a dollar from her pocket and handed it to Ji Zixuan, “Go over there and buy a few buns for your sister to eat.”
Li Xu had prepared breakfast for the three of them in the morning. Ji Yuanyuan was the only one who had not eaten since she woke up late.
Ji Zi’ang looked on eagerly. Li Xu said, “Alright, you can go too, and buy some sweets with the rest of the money.”
Hearing this, Ji Zi’ang happily tugged at Ji Zixuan’s sleeve and ran to the side.
Li Xu shook her head helplessly and reached out to fix Ji Yuanyuan’s hair.
“Oh, you still dare to come!” All of a sudden, a sharp female voice sounded.
Li Xu turned her head to look. It was the woman who had picked up the money yesterday.
Oh right, she was also in this market.
Li Xu’s expression changed. She thought that they might have to sell vegetables together in the future, so their relationship could not be too stiff, she smiled and took a few peaches, “Big sister, it was the child who was insensible yesterday. Don’t be angry, try our peaches…”
The woman snickered and took the peaches. She took a bite and spat them out, “Pei, what kind of rotten peaches are these? They taste terrible, yet you still dare to sell them?”
She casually threw the peaches in her hand to Li Xu’s feet and looked at her with a mean expression.
It was this woman and that wretched girl who made her miss out so much money yesterday.
That pile of peaches was at least two to three hundred.
Two to three hundred Yuan was money that she had to sell for more than half a month to earn.
If it weren’t for this mother and daughter pair, her child would have half a semester’s worth of tuition and miscellaneous fees.
The more she thought about it last night, the angrier she got. She didn’t sleep for half the night. She came over early in the morning to squat. As expected, she really did come.
This woman was really stupid. After doing such a thing, she actually dared to come over.
Seeing that this person seemed to be looking for trouble, Ji Yuanyuan held Li Xu’s hand and looked at this woman with an innocent expression.
Li Xu was a little hesitant, “Big Sister…”
The woman looked at Ji Yuanyuan, her face was full of sarcasm, “This little girl, one look and you can tell that she isn’t blessed. She has a pointy mouth and monkey cheeks. You have to teach her well. Otherwise, when she grows up, she might be deceived by some hooligans for her body…”
This woman’s words were really too harsh. Li Xu’s face immediately darkened.
“Big Sister, isn’t it inappropriate for you to talk about a child like that?”
The woman spat on the ground in a very vulgar manner, “Bah, I’m just reminding you out of kindness. You’re learning to lie and cheat money at such a young age. What kind of good thing can you be when you grow up?”
How could Li Xu tolerate this woman insulting Ji Yuanyuan in such a manner? She immediately said, “You picked up other people’s money with your greedy heart. My daughter merely told the truth. How can you scold a child like this?”
Without waiting for the woman to speak…, Li Xu continued, “Your character is so bad. You must be talking about yourself just now, right? Picking up money and not returning it. You must have grown up doing it from a young age, right? Could it be that you were cheated at such a young age and your family was so poor that you could only rely on picking up money to survive?”
This was the first time Ji Yuanyuan knew that Li Xu’s mouth was actually so sharp.
One had to know that when they were at the Ji family, Xu Xiuhua had often made oblique accusations, but Li Xu rarely made a sound.
The woman was so angry that her face flushed red. She pointed at Li Xu and could not say a word, “You…”
It was not even nine o’clock yet, and there were still many people coming to the market to buy vegetables.
Seeing that they were quarreling, many people started to surround them one after another.
The woman was fat, and the fat on her stomach was almost bursting out of her clothes. With the advantage of her weight, the woman went forward and wanted to hit Li Xu.
Ji Yuanyuan saw it and thought to herself, this is not good.
With this woman’s figure, even if there were two Li Xu, she probably would not be able to beat her.
Seeing that Li Xu was about to be at a disadvantage, Ji Yuanyuan hurriedly rushed forward, “Don’t hit my Mommy.”
She had seen it clearly. When she rushed over, her face just happened to brush past the woman’s hand.
...
It looked like the woman’s slap landed on her face, but it actually didn’t hurt much.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ji Yuanyuan grabbed the woman’s belt.
Therefore, when Ji Yuanyuan fell, the woman’s pants also fell to the ground.
The crowd quickly burst into laughter. The woman was stunned and quickly pulled her pants.
“Yuanyuan…” Li Xu quickly went forward and pushed the woman away. She pulled Ji Yuanyuan up from the ground, “How are you? Does it hurt?”
Ji Yuanyuan quickly squeezed out a few tears, he looked at the woman, “Auntie, the money you picked up that day clearly belonged to that Uncle. Why did you say it was your money? I told Uncle. If you want to hit me, hit me. Don’t hit my mother, Sob sob…”
After saying that, she began to cry in a grievance.
At this moment, the woman was lying on the ground with her butt naked. She was completely stunned.
A moment later, her face quickly turned red. She pulled her pants and stood up from the ground.
“What kind of person is that man to your mother? Why are you so protective of him? Could he be your mother’s old lover?” The woman scolded, she tidied up her pants as she said, “You are a cheap person who has a mother but has no mother to teach you. You are still young and don’t learn well.”
After she finished speaking, she had already fastened her belt and was about to rush forward to hit someone. contemporary romance
...
Ji Yuanyuan clenched her fists.
After living for so many years, this was the first time she had met someone with such a dirty mouth.
If she didn’t teach her a lesson, did she really think that they were easy to bully?
