Ye Xueli stood there, so angry that she broke her long nails. "Do you think I'll care about you in the future? You only have eyes for that fat pig brother of yours. Since when have you had a sister like me? Wait till the day I marry Captain Lu, don't come begging me to do things for you! You're looking down on me. Just wait and see. "
Ye Xueli was done scolding, but in the end, she sat in the dormitory and cried. The more she thought about it, the more pitiful she felt. It was bad enough that her father didn't care about her because she was a girl, but her own brother was angry at her.
Jiang Yao had no idea what had happened between Ye Jianyi and Ye Xueli. When she arrived at the market, she bought some vegetables that she and Lu Xingzhi liked to eat. Then, she unexpectedly met a few children in the market.
These children were the children that Lu Xingzhi had sent to the orphanage. The leader was the boy that Lu Xingzhi had brought home the other day. They hadn't seen each other for a few months, and the boy had gained a lot of weight.
The children were selling vegetables at a stall. The stall wasn't big. It was laid out with gunny sacks on the ground and took up a space at the intersection. Fresh chives and some common vegetables like beans and eggplants were displayed on the stall.
When Jiang Yao recognized him, the boy also recognized Jiang Yao. When he saw her, the boy stood up cautiously.
Jiang Yao walked over and greeted him with a smile. "Why are you selling vegetables here?"
"We want to make money. It's our director's birthday in a few days. We want to buy him a birthday cake. We don't have the money, so we agreed to sell vegetables to make money," the boy replied. It was obvious that he was a little nervous. As he spoke, he tugged at the corner of his shirt and hurriedly said, "If it's not possible, we'll go back now."
"It's good that you have such intentions. Why not?" Jiang Yao raised her hand and patted the head of the youngest child. "This is your own way of making money. You've put in your own hard work to buy a birthday cake for your director. Your director will be very happy when she receives it. But the weather is very hot. You can't stay under the sun all the time. Be careful of heatstroke. You must be careful when you come out and go back."
Jiang Yao didn't ask them how they got their money. These children had been in society for many years, and their life experience wasn't much less than hers. Naturally, they had their own methods.
Since they wanted to sell it to make money, they definitely wouldn't use underhanded means to earn this capital.
They respected and loved their director, so it was impossible for them to go back and use improper means to earn money to buy a birthday cake for their director.
Jiang Yao felt that these children's temperament had developed in a better direction after not seeing them for a few months. This was something that made her very gratified. It proved that Lu Xingzhi's expectations of them were not disappointed. These children were all children worthy of help.
They may have been polluted by the big dye vat of this society, but their nature of kindness has not changed.
"No, no, we bring water." The little boy raised the kettle on his back. "There's water. It can relieve the heat. Also, the director cooks mung bean soup for us to drink every day."
"That's good." Jiang Yao nodded. "Then you go ahead with your work. I'll go buy some other vegetables. The sun is too hot at noon. You can go back early after we sell out."
