Chapter 151 Happy
When they walked out of the house, Zhou Mei and Li Yuegui both looked a little unhappy, but each of them had fifty yuan in their hands.

In the yard, Li Yuegui, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at Zhou Mei, sighed and said, "Sister-in-law, we wrote the IOU, so we have to pay back the money."

She knew that once you borrowed money and wrote a receipt, you couldn't deny it.

"If you borrow and repay, it will be easy to borrow again." Zhou Mei looked down at the fifty yuan in her hand.

Before coming here, she had the same idea as her third brother's wife: borrowing money from Tao Qiuyi was just a pretext. She had decided to treat the money as her own and never pay it back.

Thinking of the IOU that I and my third brother’s wife had written and signed, I knew that I must pay the money back.

Pretending, that's all she knows. Li Yuegui snorted in her heart, "Sister-in-law, where did Tao Qiuyi learn this? She made us write the IOU ourselves and even sign our names."

"She's on guard against us!" Zhou Mei sighed.

"You mean..." Li Yuegui glanced back and said in a low voice, "Tao Qiuyi guessed that we borrowed the money and didn't plan to pay it back, right?"

Zhou Mei nodded silently.

"Sister-in-law, when did Tao Qiuyi become so... so..." Unable to think of a good word to describe her, Li Yuegui simply gave up thinking, "Oh, I don't know how to describe Tao Qiuyi now."

"She is indeed different from before." Zhou Mei looked back at the closed door, a fierce look in her eyes.

They were asked to write IOUs in their own handwriting and sign them. It was impossible for Tao Qiuyi, the clueless girl who grew up in the Huang family, to think of such things.

She was incredibly strong, had a bad temper, and dared to hit her elders. The conditions she proposed when the family was divided, the words she said to her, all her actions and words...

These are not things a girl who grew up in the countryside can do or think of. Does the Huang family know that Tao Qiuyi has become what she is today?

"Yes, she has become smarter and is not easy to deceive." Li Yuegui agreed.

"You're right, she has become smarter." Zhou Mei glanced at Li Yuegui and nodded in agreement.

Tao Qiuyi is really smart.

Such a smart person should not disdain to steal other people's money. Zhou Mei had another idea in her mind. Maybe their money and tickets were not stolen by Tao Qiuyi, Wei Jingyuan and the other three.

Seeing Zhou Mei's expression, Li Yuegui suddenly didn't want to say anything more and turned around to continue walking.

At the same time, in the house.

Wei Jingyuan walked slowly. Although he walked slowly, he could already walk steadily. He should be happy to be able to walk slowly and steadily, but at this moment he was confused.

He even wondered if there was something wrong with him.

Tao Qiuyi, Li Zi and Xiao Huai were still sitting at the table, their heads almost touching each other.

"Is this the IOU?" Li Zi looked at the two IOUs curiously. The handwriting was even uglier than her own.

"Yes." Looking at the two IOUs in her hand, Tao Qiuyi smiled happily. This confused Li Zi and Xiao Huai, as they had never lent money to anyone before.

But I also know that lending my money to others will make me feel a little unhappy.

It was really strange that the eldest sister-in-law was so happy. Li Zi and Xiao Huai couldn't help but suspect that she was deceived by the sweet words of the eldest aunt and the third aunt.

"Sister-in-law, are you very happy?" Li Zi asked bravely.

Wei Jingyuan, who was practicing walking, happened to walk to the table and stopped unconsciously. While practicing walking, he had been paying attention to the three of them talking.

For some reason, he felt as if his hearing had improved.

He could hear clearly what his uncle and third uncle were talking in a low voice in front of the fireplace.

"I'm happy." Tao Qiuyi smiled and nodded, then slowly folded the two IOUs and put them in his cotton-padded jacket pocket, which was actually the ring space in his room.

"Why?" This time it was Xiao Huai who asked. Tao Qiuyi was about to answer, but suddenly remembered that Li Zi and Xiao Huai didn't know about that incident, so he changed the subject and said, "Someone asked me to borrow money, which means I'm rich."

This answer shocked Wei Jingyuan and his two siblings.

Tao Qiuyi didn't care what they thought, and stood up and walked to the backpack. He first untied the cloth bag on top, and then took out the things in the backpack and put them on the table.

On the table were four pig's feet, a piece of pork belly, a large piece of pork leg, a can of canned fruit, and a can of malted milk.

Looking at the things on the table, Wei Jingyuan and his two siblings were dumbfounded.

Especially pork, how could they buy so much?

"Sister-in-law, how did you buy so much meat?" Li Zi stared at a large piece of pork leg and pork belly with wide eyes. She remembered that her third aunt had complained before that meat was hard to buy.

Aunt San said that buying meat not only requires money, but also meat tickets. Even if you have these two things, you may not be able to buy meat.

The four pig's feet have been ignored by Li Zi.

Tao Qiuyi secretly groaned in her heart. She knew that it was a bit scary to take out so much pork at one time, but if she didn't take it out, it would be more troublesome to take it out slowly later.

Reaching out and pinching Li Zi's face, she joked, "I have connections with your sister-in-law."

"Ah!" Li Zi didn't understand.

Li Zi didn't understand, but Wei Jingyuan and Xiao Huai did. The two brothers understood. She wasn't joking; she really did have connections in town buying pork.

She had only been to town a few times, so how did she find the channels and connections to buy pork? Wei Jingyuan suddenly realized that he knew very little about Tao Qiuyi.

Wei Jingyuan asked: "Canned fruit and malted milk..."

"It's a thank-you gift from a friend." Tao Qiuyi answered before he finished asking.

Wei Jingyuan pondered the words, "friend," "thank you gift." She had friends in town, and they had given her a thank you gift. What had she done? They were giving her canned fruit and malted milk as a thank you gift?

Canned fruit and malted milk are considered very valuable thank-you gifts nowadays.

Seeing that his younger brothers and sisters were there, Wei Jingyuan did not ask any further questions.

He didn't ask any further, and Tao Qiuyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She really didn't want to tell Li Zi and Xiao Huai about what happened in the town, for fear of scaring the two children.

They also didn't want them to worry about her at home every time she went to town.

"Sister-in-law, your friend gave you such a valuable gift. You two must have a very good relationship, right?" Li Zi was really happy for her sister-in-law because she had friends in town.

Tao Qiuyi thought about it, nodded and said, "Well, very good."

"How did you two know each other?" Li Zi asked.

"I met one on the ox cart, and the other in town." Tao Qiuyi would not deliberately conceal anything that could be said.

Wei Jingyuan and Xiao Huai didn't say anything, but they were listening to what they said carefully.

"Are you hungry now?" Tao Qiuyi suddenly asked.

"Not hungry." Lizi and Xiaohuai shook their heads at the same time. Ever since their eldest brother brought their unconscious sister-in-law home, she woke up the next day and decided to stay at their house.

They never felt hungry again.

"Wei Jingyuan, are you hungry?" Tao Qiuyi turned and looked at Wei Jingyuan.
