Chapter 326: Aunt Qiu
Here, Liu Yunxiang and Yue'er were going to the kindergarten. Just as they were about to turn into the alley, they saw a boy wearing a blue shorts running out of it. Yue'er wanted to stop him, but did he stop him?
"Brother Zhu'er!" Yue'er pointed at the boy who ran away.
Liu Yunxiang remembered that day when he went to kindergarten, this child kept running in the yard and almost died.
"I...went to find him...sister...go home..." Yue'er pushed her into the alley, then hurriedly chased the boy.
Seeing the two children running away, Liu Yunxiang looked at the large bags of rice cakes in her hands, and then walked towards the alley. When she passed a fork, a woman suddenly appeared and bumped into her.
The woman was so strong that she staggered back several steps and hit the wall.
When she came to her senses, the woman had fallen to the ground, holding a broken jade hairpin in her hand.
"Ah, the jade hairpin my husband gave me when we got married!" The woman actually shed tears as she said this.
This woman was about forty years old, with no wrinkles visible on her face, but her temples were white, and her almond-shaped eyes were filled with mist. She was supposed to be charming, but the corners of her eyes were downwardly curved, giving her a bit of a dash of heroism.
She must have been flamboyant and bright when she was young, so at this age, her eyes are still dazzling.
Liu Yunxiang stood still first, took a breath, and then stepped forward to help the woman up: "Madam, let me help you up."
The woman was crying, but when she heard this, her tears stopped. She turned her head bluntly and looked at Liu Yunxiang, "Who are you calling aunt?"
"you……"
"Am I that old?"
"No!" The woman's eyes were too sharp. Liu Yunxiang shook his head hastily, "Sister, let me help you get up."
The woman was then satisfied and let Liu Yunxiang help her up.
"Why didn't you look at the road? It looked like you hit me. I'm fine, but my jade hairpin broke. This is a token of love given to me by my husband. What do you think I should do?"
"It just seems like you walked too hastily..."
"You want to avoid responsibility?"
Liu Yunxiang sighed, "Then you can tell me a price."
Although it was an accident and her fault was not hers, seeing that the woman was so sad, she didn't say anything.
The woman snorted, "This jade hairpin is something close to my heart. I have always cherished it. Today it broke. How can I explain it to my husband?" The woman wiped away her tears and glanced at Liu Yunxiang again.
, said: "To me, this jade hairpin is worth ten thousand gold."
Liu Yunxiang looked at the jade hairpin in the woman's hand. The jade was rough, with cracks and impurities inside. It was not a good jade hairpin at first glance.
Ten thousand gold?
Could this woman have tricked her on purpose?
"Well, since you are still young and my sister won't argue with you, just take a hundred taels of silver and that will be the end of it." The woman looked tolerant and generous.
Liu Yunxiang took a deep breath, "Isn't this jade hairpin not worth even a tael of silver?"
The woman's eyes widened, "What do you mean, this is my beloved thing..."
"Whether it is a beloved thing or a token of love, it has nothing to do with me. I just say that this jade hairpin is not worth a tael!"
"How can you, a girl, break other people's things and still be cunning!"
"You must have been holding grudges here for a long time. I guess you have passed a few waves of people, but they didn't look like they were rich, so you didn't take action until I came over." Liu Yunxiang lowered his head and glanced at his clothes, which were made of silk and satin.
It was indeed a rich man at first glance, "Then he bumped into me on purpose. I'm afraid the jade hairpin had been broken long ago, and he's used it to trick people many times, right?"
The woman felt guilty for a moment, and shouted hurriedly and bluffingly: "You are talking nonsense. If you don't pay, I will report it to the official!"
"Okay, report to the official!"
"you!"
"You liar should have been punished long ago!"
The woman narrowed her eyes, then leaned closer and whispered: "To tell you the truth, there is someone in my government!"
Liu Yunxiang shrugged, "The evil will not prevail against the good!"
"I don't want you to ask for a hundred taels anymore, just ten taels of silver!"
"I won't give you a penny!"
"Why are you so stingy?"
"This is a matter of principle!"
"Xiao Nizi, if you offend me, you will never have a good life in the future!"
"I'm really not afraid!"
The woman was so angry that she gritted her teeth and clenched her fists, as if she was ready to beat Liu Yunxiang at any time.
Liu Yunxiang took two steps back defensively, "If you dare to take action, we have to go to the government today. You said you have people in the government. Although I don't have one, I have money. Money can make all the difference. I will spend some money.
I’ll still let you sit in jail!”
The woman glared at Liu Yunxiang, "How dare you be so arrogant in front of me!"
Liu Yunxiang also stared at the woman, "So what?"
Just as the two of them were glaring at each other, a person walked into the alley.
"Aunt Qiu, didn't you go buy rice? Why are you still here?"
"Hey, isn't this Sister Bodhisattva, who is this?"
Liu Yunxiang and the woman were stunned for a moment, then turned to look at the person coming.
"Songzi, do you know her?" the woman asked.
Song Zi nodded, stepped forward, grinned at Liu Yunxiang, and then looked at the woman: "Aunt Qiu, this is the Bodhisattva sister I told you about who bought those words of yours with one hundred taels."
Liu Yunxiang looked at the woman, "Aunt Qiu?"
She silently imagined that the Aunt Qiu in her imagination should be the kind of person who was full of poetry and calligraphy, and also kind and dignified. She should be very different from the woman in front of her.
Aunt Qiu looked uncomfortable and coughed dryly: "Oh, it's you. You took away so many of my paintings for one hundred taels of silver. You must have made a lot of money."
Liu Yunxiang's mouth twitched, "Actually, one picture hasn't been sold yet."
Hang it in the study, no one cares.
"Ha!" Aunt Qiu laughed, "Since you know my Songzi, forget about it and I won't argue with you."
Songzi looked at the broken jade hairpin in Aunt Qiu's hand and understood what was going on. "Aunt Qiu, why did you do this again? You were chased and beaten last time. Fortunately, you ran fast...well..."
Aunt Qiu covered Songzi's mouth and said, "You brat, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Liu Yunxiang just smiled, looking understanding.
Aunt Qiu snorted, "You are such an unpleasant girl. You will definitely not be able to marry in the future. Even if someone is willing to marry you, you will not be able to marry well!"
Liu Yunxiang narrowed his eyes, this woman's mouth was really bad, "Tsk, what can I do? I'm already married, and my husband is handsome, rich and powerful, and he's very nice to me. Don't you think it's annoying?"
Aunt Qiu flicked her sleeves, turned around and walked in, "Showing affection will kill you quickly!"
Liu Yunxiang replied rudely: "You are old and have a vicious mouth!"
Aunt Qiu turned around and glared at Liu Yunxiang again, and was about to continue walking when Songzi called out to her.
"Aunt Qiu, you haven't bought rice yet!"
Aunt Qiu shouted: "How can I buy rice if I don't have money?"
After saying that, he stormed back angrily.
Songzi sighed, with a look of embarrassment on his face: "But there are so many mouths waiting for food."
Liu Yunxiang gave the rice cake in his hand to Songzi, "No, let's take a bite first."
When Song Nu smelled the aroma of rice cakes and looked at the big bags, her face lit up with joy, "Thank you, Sister Bodhisattva."
"No, just call me Sister Yunxiang."
"Yes, Sister Yunxiang."
Liu Yunxiang thought for a moment and asked, "Didn't I just give you one hundred taels of silver last time and then it was gone so quickly?"
Songzi nodded: "Sister Yunxiang, I don't know, but there are several children in our kindergarten who need to take medicine for a long time, so it is very expensive. Food and clothing for so many people is a big expense every day."
"so."
"Aunt Qiu used to be rich, but we also made her poor, so she...ahem."
"Deceit and kidnapping?"
"Forced by helplessness."
Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "Rather than doing this kind of thing, it is more reasonable to do something honest and make a living."
"Aunt Wen and I have to take care of these children. Apart from painting and some boxing skills, Aunt Qiu doesn't know anything else. How can we make a living?"
"Kung Fu?" No wonder he is so strong. Liu Yunxiang thought for a while, "I am short of someone to pick up the goods right now. If your Aunt Qiu is willing, you can go south with our guys and pick up a batch of goods. The reward is still very good.
Generous.”
