Song Lingge's eyes widened, almost unable to believe her ears.

"Aunt, what did you say?"

“Your dad wants me to marry Nie Ergou,” Song Jianmei repeated.

Regardless of the fact that Song Jianmei has just divorced, if she really has someone she likes, then she has the right to pursue happiness at any time.

However, if it were Nie Ergou, Song Lingge would really have to have a big question mark.

Is Song Jianping still considered an older brother?

This is like rescuing Song Jianmei from one fire pit only to push her into another.

Song Lingge suppressed her anger and tried to keep her tone calm.

"Aunt, you and Nie Ergou are from the same hometown and grew up together. Do you like him?"

What kind of talk is this? Even though Song Lingge is Song Jianmei's niece and business partner, she still has to endure Song Jianmei's disdain.

"Who is Nie Ergou? He's been a petty thief since he was a child, even worse than Chen Sangde. Would your aunt be blind to have ever fallen for him?"

The fact that Song Jianmei was attracted to Chen Sangde suggests that she was practically blind.

But to say that she has taken a liking to Nie Ergou is a huge insult to her!

Relieved to receive an affirmative answer, Song Lingge breathed a sigh of relief.

She is a woman, and she knows very well how terrible it is to be blinded by love.

If Song Jianmei and Nie Ergou really do like each other, then Song Lingge will definitely distance herself from Song Jianmei.

Some people only need to be saved once.

This shows that she realized it was a disaster, but she couldn't escape it on her own and needed to rely on external help.

However, if she falls into the same trap again and again, it only means she's out of her mind.

Fortunately, Song Jianmei appears to be normal at present.

"Did you ask him why my dad wanted you to marry Nie Ergou? He knows what kind of person Nie Ergou is."

Song Lingge has hit Song Jianmei where it hurts.

Song Jianmei's face showed not only anger, but also deep sadness.

What saddened her most was that the person who brought this up was actually her own brother.

“He said that when Nie Ergou came to my place for dinner last time, he suddenly had the idea of ​​having a home. Plus, we’re from the same hometown, and Nie Ergou has had feelings for me since we were little, but he gave up after I married Chen Sangde. But now that I’m divorced, I don’t have that concern anymore.”

"He also said that although Nie Ergou used to steal chickens and do bad things, we are from the same hometown, and he would never cheat me. He said he knew me well and told me to get along well with Nie Ergou."

"What's this?" Song Lingge sneered.

"My dad knows Nie Ergou's character better than anyone. How could he say such a thing?"

Song Lingge's angry tone caused Song Jianmei's tears to well up instantly.

Fortunately, there are still people in this world who care about her.

With her son living in another city and her sister-in-law dead, Song Jianmei truly had no one to confide in.

"After divorcing Chen Sangde, I actually thought about it. I'm already this old, and I have no intention of remarrying. I just want to earn more money with my own hands so that I can save more for you and Fengwa in the future."

"Aunt, if you meet someone you like again, of course, they must be of good character. Then, I will wholeheartedly support you in pursuing happiness again. But Nie Ergou is out of the question. By the way, did he bother you afterward?"

“He came twice, but I ignored him. The shop was busy, and he squatted there for a while, got bored, and left.”

This kind of person is a good-for-nothing, always idling around.

If someone truly likes their aunt, seeing how busy she is, they will definitely offer to lend a hand.

“He will definitely come again in the future. Aunt, you can’t stay here anymore. The shop is closed. Let’s open a new one.”

Song Jianmei cried as she gripped Song Lingge's hand, unable to utter a single word.

Song Jianping's attitude chilled her to the bone. She had originally told Song Lingge on a whim.

Fortunately, her niece did not give up on her.

Only she was willing to help her.

This matter should be addressed sooner rather than later. Zhao Jueyu's passing helped Song Lingge overcome her procrastination.

It's unrealistic to have Song Jianmei move to the Zhao family's house; she can't ignore the feelings of the two elderly people.

Song Jianmei couldn't go to an unfamiliar place alone, otherwise if something really happened, she wouldn't have time to help.

Is there anywhere she can both stay close to home and get away from here?

Business has to be good.

There's a place I could try, but I don't know if it still has a storefront.

"Aunt, pack your things, I'll take you somewhere."

"Go now?" Song Jianmei was surprised by Song Lingge's enthusiasm.

"Going right now!"

It's great to have someone around who can make decisions and act decisively.

The sense of security that Song Jianmei couldn't find in men was actually found in Song Lingge.

Considering the time constraints, Song Lingge splurged and took a taxi directly.

When she arrived at the destination, she felt a pang of regret at the cost of the money.

It seems I need to make the most of every second to earn money and try to buy a car as soon as possible.

"Nanzhou University of Foreign Languages? Lingge, is this your school?"

Song Jianmei didn't know many characters to begin with, but after opening her shop, she learned some bookkeeping from Zhao Jueyu.

Song Lingge put her arm around Song Jianmei's shoulder and said with a smile, "I've thought about it. It needs to be a place with a large flow of people, safe, and one that I can visit often. I can't think of any other place besides this one."

Song Jianmei waved her hand: "I'm not looking anymore, I'm not looking anymore, it's right here. I like it here too. After you start school, you can come to my place for dinner every day."

"Let's look for a shop first! Business is booming around the school, I don't know if there are any vacancies."

Song Lingge led Song Jianmei toward the snack street.

Along the way, he gave Song Jianmei a general description of the surrounding environment, as well as some of the habits of college students.

The aunt and niece were both filled with anticipation for the wonderful life that was about to begin.

However, after walking around the food street twice, the two of them lost most of their fighting spirit.

Firstly, there are very few vacant shops near universities.

Among those vacant shops, they are either too remote or too small, making them unsuitable.

The ones that are pleasing to the eye are just too expensive.

Song Jianmei had saved some money during this period and was originally quite confident in moving to another place.

But now I realize that if she continues to spend her savings like this, she'll probably run out of money in no time.

Unlike her pessimism, Song Lingge had her eye on a shop, a two-story building.

The downstairs area is spacious and bright, with tables, chairs, and a kitchen already in place, so Song Jianmei doesn't need to add much extra if she wants to open a shop.

The upstairs is used for storage, and now it's filled with a lot of miscellaneous items.

However, after Song Lingge looked closely and tidied up, she found that there was a lot of space up there.

At that time, Song Jianmei won't need to worry about finding a place to live anymore; she can just tidy it up and move in.

What she sets her sights on is, of course, excellent.

However, the price is justified by the quality.

"Aunt, what do you think of this place?"

Song Jianmei looked embarrassed, a stark contrast to Song Lingge's confidence and poise.
