Chapter 99
“What do you have in mind?”
Mo Qiufeng was a little curious. He couldn’t change his son’s mind, so how could this girl do it?
“The solution won’t work if you tell me. Anyway, I’ll help you keep your son from becoming a live-in son-in-law. Uncle Mo, can you ask Lu Ye’s mother to make ten dumplings for Lu Ye, and the fillings can be different, okay?”
Ruan Qiqi looked confident, and even the old fox Mo Qiufeng was fooled by her. Could this girl really have a solution?
Why not believe her?
He really didn’t want to be laughed at by the old man Zhang Zhiguo, even if Mo Congrong went to someone else’s house!
“Ten dumplings is a bit too much, can it be less?”
Mo Qiufeng returned to his treacherous nature and began to bargain.
“Not a single meal can be less. Lu Ye has a big appetite, and he must eat at least 200 dumplings in one meal. Uncle Mo, this deal is very cost-effective. I’m saving your son!”
Ruan Qiqi didn’t give in at all, and put forward another condition. Two hundred dumplings in one meal, ten meals would be two thousand, which would not tire Yuan Huilan to death.
The reason why Yuan Huilan was asked to make dumplings was because when Lu Ye was a child at the Mo family, this woman made dumplings several times. Before eating each time, Lu Ye and Mo Congrong would fight. Yuan Huilan punished Lu Ye to stand outside without saying a word, and he didn’t eat a single bite of the dumplings.
Mo Congrong was particularly bad and deliberately held the dumplings in front of Lu Ye to eat.
Ruan Qiqi wanted to vent her anger for her man and also to harass Mo Congrong.
This guy wanted to borrow Zhang Weihong’s family background to go to the capital, but she stopped him from going.
Mo Qiufeng didn’t hesitate for too long and agreed.
At most, he and Huilan would make dumplings together.
“Uncle Mo, wait for my good news, goodbye!”
Ruan Qiqi smiled and waved her hand, dragging Lu Ye away.
At the door, they also saw Captain Xu and Captain Zhou with sullen faces. Seeing them, they gnashed their teeth in hatred, but they didn’t dare to fight here.
“Your cousin is so stupid that Ji Xianglian used him as a gun.”
Ruan Qiqi lectured Captain Zhou in a condescending manner, and then said to Captain Xu: “Your cousin is so insidious, be careful that she will sell you out one day, and you are still counting money for her!”
After sowing discord, she held her head high and walked away with Lu Ye.
As for how Mo Qiufeng talked to them, Ruan Qiqi was not interested in knowing. Anyway, the two of them didn’t make a fuss afterwards, and the family building returned to peace. However, Ji Xianglian’s reputation and popularity took a sharp turn for the worse, and she was isolated by the women in the building.
Even when she went to the toilet, she would be excluded. Ji Xianglian was in a hurry to urinate, so they deliberately occupied the toilet and didn’t let her.
Ji Xianglian looked a bit old to begin with, and she was exhausted during this period, and she aged faster. She really looked a bit like Captain Xu’s mother.
Ruan Qiqi’s reputation in the family building also rose. No one dared to say that she was lazy anymore, and no one dared to cricket behind her back. However, no one played with Ruan Qiqi. Her popularity in the family building was now isolated, just like Ji Xianglian.
She didn’t care. After all, she was very picky about her friends. She didn’t like any of the women in the family building.
On this day, Ruan Qiqi and Zhang Weihong made an appointment to go shopping in the department store. Zhang Weihong wanted to buy a piece of cloth for clothes. She picked a piece of navy blue material and prepared to make a coat.
“Isn’t this color a bit old-fashioned? Only aunties wear this color. Why don’t you buy this one?”
Ruan Qiqi pointed it out unceremoniously and suggested that she buy red and black plaid fabric. Although Zhang Weihong was not particularly beautiful, her facial features were not ugly, but her hairstyle and clothes were too lame. The original five points of color were reduced by three points.
“Navy blue is stable.”
Zhang Weihong glanced at the red and black plaid fabric and refused without thinking. She was more used to calm colors.
“Whether you are stable or not depends on the person, not the clothes. You are not old and not ugly, but you dress up in an old-fashioned way all day long. That is not stable, but old-fashioned.”
Ruan Qiqi tried her best to persuade her. Zhang Weihong did not like navy blue, but she always wore clothes of this color. She also vaguely revealed her lack of confidence in her appearance and felt that she was too ugly.
This girl is quite contradictory. She wants to be beautiful, but she is afraid of being unstable.
“But this color is too frivolous. After all, I am a cadre.”
Zhang Weihong was somewhat relaxed, but she was still unwilling to try bright colors, as if there was a shackle in her heart that locked her up, and the space that trapped her was only black, gray and blue.
She yearned for the bright colors outside, but she did not dare to take that step. The whole person became a contradiction.
“Why do you think this color is frivolous? If it is an indecent color, why is it placed on the counter of a department store? These products are sold by the state, which means that the state does not think it is a frivolous color, but a color that women can wear.”
Ruan Qiqi was very curious about the reason for Zhang Weihong’s awkward personality. The reason why she could play with this girl was because she saw that Zhang Weihong had psychological problems. Although it was not as serious as a deep well ice, it was also a psychologically unhealthy one.
“But my mother said that girls should dress more steadily, so that they will be liked by others. If they dress too frivolously, they will be looked down upon.”
Zhang Weihong spoke in a low voice and looked around, afraid of being heard.
Obviously, her mother had a very high authority in her heart.
“Your mother still controls your clothes now?”
Ruan Qiqi was a little unbelievable. Zhang Weihong was 31 years old, and she had been married and divorced. Why did her mother’s hand still extend so long?
“She likes to control me.”
Zhang Weihong sighed softly. In fact, she didn’t like being controlled by her mother, but her mother was old and in poor health, so she could only compromise.
Besides, her mother was very good to her. She was able to divorce thanks to her mother’s support, otherwise it would not have been so easy to divorce.
“Besides controlling your clothes, what else does your mother control you?” Ruan Qiqi was a little curious. “
She doesn’t let me laugh or talk loudly. My mother said that girls can’t laugh or make noises, which makes them look too frivolous.”
Zhang Weihong spoke in a voice that was neither high nor low, neither fast nor slow. She was as steady as she was. She never lost control of her emotions, which seemed very abnormal.
“Is your mother like this too?”
Ruan Qiqi frowned slightly. Zhang’s mother was either a mother with a strong desire for control, or she had been hurt, and this hurt was related to her clothes, or both.
“Yes, she never wears colors other than black, blue and gray, and she doesn’t laugh or make noises. She is very steady.”
Zhang Weihong nodded. When she talked about her mother, her tone was very respectful.
Ruan Qiqi didn’t persuade her anymore. Zhang Weihong lived in the comfort zone she created for herself, and she lived well. There was no need for her to pull her out.
“Is Mo Congrong really willing to come?”
After buying clothes, the two went to eat, and Ruan Qiqi asked casually.
“Well, he agreed. I plan to take him to meet my parents next month.”
Zhang Weihong was very satisfied with Mo Congrong. He was young and handsome, with a good family background and ability, and he was considerate to her.
“You were pursued by Mo Congrong, right?” Ruan Qiqi asked jokingly.
“Well, he is five years younger than me, and his conditions are not bad. I can’t take the initiative to pursue him.”
Zhang Weihong told the truth, she was very self-aware.
“That… I heard Lu Ye say something, and I have been struggling for the past few days. Should I tell you? After all, Mo Congrong is Lu Ye’s stepbrother, and he is also considered a family member. It would be too unfair to tell you, but if I don’t tell you, I feel sorry for you. You are my friend, and I can’t just watch you live a miserable life in the second half of your life.”
Ruan Qiqi said these words hesitantly, which made Zhang Weihong hooked.
“Why am I unhappy? What’s wrong with Mo Congrong?”
Zhang Weihong’s first reaction was that Mo Congrong had a terminal illness and she might have to be a widow for the rest of her life.
“There’s no big problem. It’s just that when Lu Ye was a kid, he had a peeing competition with Mo Congrong, but he couldn’t pee far enough. Lu Ye said that all the boys in the compound had competed together, and Mo Congrong couldn’t pee far enough. Do you understand what I mean?”
Ruan Qiqi covered her face in pretense of shyness and compared the length with her fingers.
A very unique little thing!
Zhang Weihong understood as soon as she heard it, and swallowed hard. Damn it, she was actually going to be a widow!
