After returning home, Xia Qianqian did not mention the incident of being framed today. As usual, she helped Xia Yu review his homework and played with Xia Yunyun.
It was not until she was about to go to bed that she said to Qin Xue, "Mom, I won't be selling meatballs tomorrow, so you don't have to get up early to prepare."
"Why don't you sell it?" Qin Xue asked.
"I'm tired and want to take a day off." Xia Qianqian said.
Qin Xue touched her face distressedly: "Okay, if you are tired, just rest for a few more days."
…
You don’t have to sell the meatballs, but Xia Yu must go to school.
The next day, Xia Qianqian got up early again, and after breakfast, she took Xia Yu to the town. Since they were not doing business, they did not have to push the cart, so the brother and sister walked hand in hand.
Xia Qianqian sent Xia Yu to the entrance of the private school and said, "Come to Jingxia Restaurant after school as usual. Big Sister will be waiting for you nearby."
"Okay." Xia Yu looked at Xia Qianqian worriedly.
What happened yesterday hurt my elder sister's heart. It was all because he was too young to protect her.
"Go ahead and study hard." Xia Qianqian smiled heartlessly, as if nothing had happened. After Xia Yu went in, she started to wander around the town.
Many people in the town knew her, some greeted her warmly, while others looked at her coldly. Xia Qianqian strolled around the market and went to Li Sui's clinic to drink some tea.
"No stall today?" Li Sui asked.
"I won't set up the shop anymore. I won't make much money in a day." Xia Qianqian drank hot tea and looked at Li Sui's clinic.
Li Sui is an excellent doctor. After participating in the poison test yesterday, he became famous in the town. More and more people came to see him today.
After seeing the patient, Li Sui took out a bag of fruit and said, "Take the fruit back with you when you go back."
"Apples?" Xia Qianqian's eyes lit up. In this place, apples were very expensive, and she was never willing to buy them.
"Your mother loves to eat it." Li Sui blurted out, and his old face turned red.
Li Sui must like Qin Xue very much, right? Xia Qianqian thought to herself, but didn't point it out. She said, "It just so happens that we don't have any fruit at home, so I won't be polite."
"The New Year is coming soon. Have you prepared the New Year's goods?" Li Sui asked.
"I'm a country person, why should I buy New Year's goods? Just get by as I want." Xia Qianqian said. She didn't have much money left, so she had to save some for the porcelain making process.
Li Sui sighed: "You live such a hard life, but Qin Jin doesn't recognize you. I really hate him..."
"It's okay. He ignores us now, but I will make him out of reach in the future." Xia Qianqian pouted.
"It's not easy to make porcelain, but I believe in you! I will also fully support you." Li Sui said.
"Thanks."
After a while, another patient came to see the doctor.
Xia Qianqian stopped disturbing her and continued to go shopping at the market.
The town is small, and the market is just one street. After a boring day of wandering around the town, Xia Qianqian finally waited for Xia Yu to finish school and happily took his hand home.
Xia Yu said, "Big sister, are we really not selling meatballs anymore?"
"Yeah." Xia Qianqian took out an apple and gave it to Xia Yu.
Xia Yu did not answer: "Mom likes to eat apples, leave it for her."
"There's more!" Xia Qianqian touched Xia Yu's head and sighed, "How come you are so sensible? This apple was given by Doctor Li. It was free."
"Then give it to big sister. It's not easy for big sister to support the family." Xia Yu insisted on not eating.
Xia Qianqian had no choice but to put the apple away. She turned her head to look at Jingxia Restaurant, but quickly looked away.
Today, she passed by Jingxia Restaurant five times in total! But she didn't see Gu Changsheng once. Did he go to the county town
