Chapter 125: Chapter 124: Really Funny
Lu Zheng recalled that time when the young girl saw him with his mother and aunt and had turned and run away with a strange reaction. He was tempted to ask her about it but feared scaring her, so he never brought it up.
Lin Xia was unaware of what the person opposite her was thinking. Having eaten her fill, she felt completely comfortable.
She was just looking forward to getting off the train to stretch her legs soon.
Lu Zheng noticed her satisfied expression. Under the morning light, the fine fuzz on her face seemed to be coated in gold, making her exceptionally beautiful. He quickly averted his gaze, questioning himself what was going on.
After arriving at the station, Lin Xia and Lu Zheng got off the train one after the other.
Just as they were about to leave the station exit, Lu Zheng suddenly asked Lin Xia behind him, "What’s your name?"
After he asked, he truly wanted to punch himself. What was he doing? Yet, his face showed no expression, giving nothing away.
Lin Xia was stunned; she hadn’t expected him to suddenly ask that.
But she didn’t see it as a big deal. The two had indeed crossed paths several times, so she told him directly, "I’m Lin Xia!"
Lu Zheng subconsciously muttered, "Lin Xia!"
"Yep! Lin as in ’forest,’ and Xia as in ’summer.’ How about you?"
"Lu Zheng! Goodbye!" After saying that, he waved at her and quickly walked away.
Lin Xia couldn’t help but laugh behind him. This guy was really funny! What was the hurry? It’s not like anyone was chasing him!
She thought about it; Lu Zheng?
Could it be Lu as in ’land,’ Zheng as in ’kite’?
Lin Xia shook her head, not dwelling on these thoughts.
She started considering her business with goods. This time she planned to stock up more on accessories, as the New Year was approaching and every young woman wanted to dress beautifully.
She was now focused on making money from women!
Lin Xia, as usual, bought her return ticket first before going to stock up on goods.
This time, she stocked up on hair clips, hair bands, earrings, and even some nylon stockings and such.
After stocking up, Lin Xia found a place to store everything in Jade’s room.
Seeing she still had some time, she slung her bag over her shoulder and strolled down the main streets of the provincial city.
Though it was cold, the scenery was truly nice.
Latter, she hurried to the train station, worrying she might miss her train.
In the waiting room, she ate some pastries and boiled eggs when hungry, and when thirsty, she fetched some water to drink, all the while waiting to board the train.
After another night, Lin Xia arrived home. This time she got off in the city, not far from where she was renting.
Lin Xia had intended to walk home, but then she saw Lin Qiu waiting there.
"Xiaoqiu!"
Lin Qiu came forward with a smile, taking her big bag, "Sis! Was your trip smooth?"
"Very good! Everything okay at home?" Lin Xia was most concerned about the situation at home after she had left.
"All good!" Lin Qiu felt that moving here, where they knew no one, was also nice; at least they didn’t have to worry about bumping into anyone when out and about.
The two sisters walked home laughing and talking. After Lin Xia washed up and ate, she lay on the kang wanting to catch up on sleep.
After Lin Qiu finished washing the dishes and entered the room, she saw Lin Xia had not fallen asleep but was staring at the ceiling lost in thought. She quickly asked, "Sis! What are you thinking about?"
Lin Xia chuckled, "I’m thinking about someone I met on the train to the provincial city this time. He was quite interesting!"
Lin Qiu, curious, also took off her shoes and climbed onto the kang bed, "Why is it interesting?"
"Well! How do I explain this to you, it’s just the vibe he gives off, like he has a poker face, and then he did something that I found unexpected!"
Lin Xia didn’t go into detail with Lin Qiu, she just briefly mentioned her encounter with this Lu Zheng person.
After listening, Lin Qiu pursed her lips and smiled, "Sis, he couldn’t possibly be interested in you, could he?"
"Impossible!" Lin Xia didn’t think so. First, she felt she wasn’t that charming, and she also didn’t want to find a partner and get married in this lifetime, so she had no special feelings for any man.
The sisters joked and laughed, and suddenly Lin Qiu brought up Lin Aiguo.
"Sis! I don’t want to mention them, but I can’t help wanting to know how he got back at Qian Chunli! Can’t we just write them off?"
In those years at that home, Qian Chunli always bullied them. Now, luckily, with something like what happened to Lin Qiang, seeing Qian Chunli and her folks getting hit and scolded, Lin Qiu felt quite relieved.
Lin Xia sat up, no longer sleepy, and tugged at Lin Qiu’s braid, "Actually, I’m quite curious too! But I guess the chances of him not staying with Qian Chunli are too small, at most he’ll just give them a hard time! He’s also getting old, how could he remarry someone else?"
Over at the other side of the Lin Family, Qian Chunli and Lin Qiang had been so tormented by Lin Aiguo in the past few days that they looked haggard and staggered.
Kneeling in the freezing snow was not a pleasant experience, and whenever they couldn’t bear it, Qian Chunli would remind Lin Qiang to think about the future, and both of them gritted their teeth and endured.
Lin Aiguo’s dizziness and nausea had also improved somewhat, but there was no way he was going up the mountain to work, he still felt dizzy just walking to the toilet.
Qian Chunli let him punish and scold them as much as he wanted, no matter how angry he got, she was gentle and submissive towards him.
Lin Qiang quietly stayed at home, not daring to go anywhere, while Lin Yu went to school as usual.
When there were just the three of them at home, Qian Chunli suddenly remembered something and mentioned to Lin Aiguo, "Aiguo! I don’t know if the bicycle we rode over that day was lost or not. They probably had the sense to push it inside the yard."
Lin Aiguo glared at her, not looking pleased, "Wouldn’t they be stupid not to?" But after saying this, he also felt unsure. Others he didn’t know, but Lin Xia really might not.
If he hadn’t still been ill these past few days, he would have gone to settle accounts with them already!
Qian Chunli thought for a moment and carefully proposed, "Aiguo, then maybe I and Qiangzi should go check? What if it’s lost? It costs over a hundred yuan to buy a new one!"
Lin Qiang didn’t dare make a sound, he just honestly stayed aside.
Lin Aiguo’s eyelids snapped, "Then you two go! I’m telling you, if you dare to play tricks on me, this home cannot accommodate you, better get lost quickly!"
He had now clearly seen that this melding together just wasn’t working, there was always a barrier.
Qian Chunli sincerely expressed, "Aiguo, don’t worry, I’m just worried about the bicycle for nothing!"
Lin Aiguo impatiently waved his hand, indicating for them to go and come back quickly.
Qian Chunli hurriedly called Lin Qiang to put on his coat and go, and only when they were out the door did they dare to speak.
Lin Qiang was a bit confused, "Mom! What do you mean?" They had suddenly left the house.
Qian Chunli tightened her clothes, "What do you mean what do I mean! I’ve come to see that he’ll just punish us to vent his anger.
He wouldn’t really drive us out, but how can we just sit at home every day? If we go late, would those few have already left without a trace?
So I asked your uncle and them to come down, we’re going to settle accounts with Lin Xia and them, I won’t be able to sleep until we get revenge!"
She hadn’t suffered such a big loss in all these years. Lin Xia had beaten and scolded her in front of people, and on returning, she still got punished by Lin Aiguo.
It was all because of Lin Xia, she must have her revenge!
Lin Qiang got excited, "Mom! When did you notify my uncles?"
Qian Chunli whispered to him, "I had Xiaoyu pretend to go to school, but she actually went to your Grandma’s house to get people!"
Lin Qiang, thinking about finally getting revenge, felt so energized that his knees didn’t even hurt anymore; he walked briskly.
