Translator: 549690339
“Moving?” Qiao Changshun was stunned, “Where to?”
“To the town.”
“Why?” Qiao Changshun was utterly puzzled after the initial shock.
The house was newly built, enough for him to live till his old age.
Why not live in such a good house and move to the town?
“Moving into town makes it easier to do business,” Qiao Xiaomai stated her reasons, “Besides, we’ll be able to evade Grandma, she definitely won’t let it go.”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Changshun fell silent for a moment, “Your Uncle Changfu is in town studying. If we move there, won’t he…”
“If he dares to come, I’ll go to the Academy and cause a scene.” Qiao Xiaomai stated firmly.
At these words, Qiao Changshun became speechless. He dusted off the soil on his pants and struggled to find an excuse, “Living in the town…we might not have enough money…and we will also need to buy firewood… We would need money everywhere.”
“We can continue to sell rice noodles.”
Tong Sanlang asked her to sell dry tofu at Jiweiju. The tone of his voice was so certain that he must have some relationship with Jiweiju…
But she decided on Zuixian Building instead, she didn’t want to owe him any favors.
Qiao Changshun fell silent again.
He had never thought of leaving Anping Village, even if it meant moving to the town.
“I’ll go cook first. You think about it, Dad,” Qiao Xiaomai stood up, stepping into the kitchen.
She understood Qiao Changshun’s concerns. Qiao Changshun was a simple man who just wanted to live a peaceful life. But she was taking this action so that her family could have a peaceful life too.
After lunch, Qiao Xiaomai went to give condolence money to Qiao Qinghe.
She also took some bean sprouts and a block of tofu and sent them over.
Due to yesterday’s incident, the Qiao Family’s old courtyard was filled with a heavy atmosphere.
Doctor Wu said that Sun Junyan would have to stay in bed for at least a month to recover.
A month, not even considering the medicine expenses, he would have to miss the communication meeting, for sure.
If he missed this communication meeting, in the view of the Sun Family and Sun Junyan, his path to advancement would be practically cut off.
Furthermore, if the news got around to the Academy in town, he would not be able to show his face in front of his classmates.
In short, Sun Junyan’s future was now half ruined.
Under these circumstances, with the exception of Qiao Qinghe, the rest of the family, including Qiao Changfu and Qiao Meipan, were anxious and terrified, fearing that the Sun family would vent their anger on them.
Qiao Xiaomai, however, disregarded all of this. Carrying a basket, she boldly stood at the entrance of the old courtyard and called for Qiao Qinghe.
At her call, Mrs. Sun came rushing out first.
Her old face filled with resentment. Her eyes, like a venomous snake’s, were fixed fiercely on Xiaomai, as if she would literally devour her alive.
With a faint smile on her face, Qiao Xiaomai looked at Qiao Qinghe, who was closely following Mrs. Sun. She held up the basket in her hand and said, “Grandpa, here’s fifty wen, and these bean sprouts and tofu.”
An awkward expression squeezed onto Qiao Qinghe’s face as he clenched his teeth and reluctantly took the basket.
Although he felt remorse towards Qiao Xiaomai, Sun Junyan’s injury still needed to be treated, which would cost a considerable amount of money.
“Grandpa, I’ll go first.” Carrying her empty basket, Qiao Xiaomai turned to leave.
Seeing her departure, Mrs. Sun, who had been shooting her malicious glares from the side, snarled out a few words between her teeth, “You unfilial thing, you will pay for this.”
With her cold demeanor, resentful tone and scrawny figure, she looked rather terrifying.
However, Qiao Xiaomai didn’t even bother to give her a sideways glance and continued to walk away.
Retribution?
If there really was such a thing, if there really was a just god, then Mrs. Sun would surely be the first to be struck by lightning..
