At fifty, she remarried into a wealthy family; her ex-husband knelt down and begged for reconciliati

He Qiaoyun was furious. She turned around, looked at their obsequious faces, and said, "I was sincerely discussing the Dragon Boat Festival lychee gift box business with everyone. I didn't try to profit from it. Heaven is watching what people do. Be careful what you say, or you might get struck by lightning."

Helping them make money only made me exhausted.

Unexpectedly, they not only didn't appreciate it, but also turned around and blamed me!

I endured the calm for a while, but took a step back and became more and more angry the more I thought about it.

If you can't tolerate it anymore, then you don't need to tolerate it anymore!

Seeing her fight back, those people showed no sign of shutting up, muttering, "Who knows what happens in private? You know perfectly well how those deals were negotiated."

He Qiaoyun was so angry she almost laughed. Pointing at them, she yelled, "Those orders and business were earned by me running myself ragged! If you dare to say anything more, I'll tear your mouths apart!"

The crowd fell silent, except for He Gui, who stood up for himself, shouting, "He Qiaoyun, what nonsense are you spouting? Are you trying to become a village tyrant? Believe me or not, I'll report you to the village secretary!"

With He Gui as the one to speak out, these people all came out to support him, and the conversation gradually veered off course.

"Yeah, it's just a gift box order. We wouldn't have done it if she hadn't begged us."

"That's right. I had already made a deal with someone else for my lychees, but I stood them up because of her order, and now I feel embarrassed to even see them."

"We helped her just once because we're from the same village, and this is how she talks to us."

"Sigh, after staying in the city for so long, I've forgotten the way I came."

Seeing their faces, He Qiaoyun really wanted to slap each of them.

But she held back, only chuckling lightly: "Fine, it's my fault. I was just being foolish, insisting on negotiating orders with you! But please remember what you said today, don't regret it!"

He Ping was secretly delighted to see He Qiaoyun's displeasure.

He Gui fawned over He Ping, bringing up the topic: "To be honest, what is there to regret? It's all thanks to Brother He Ping's abilities that we got the Sunshine Rose supermarket orders, and he's helping everyone make money together."

He Ping cleared his throat, glanced at He Qiaoyun, said nothing, and left.

Upon seeing this, those people followed him like lackeys.

He Qiaoyun rolled her eyes as she watched the people's backs as they walked away, and then left as well.

She drove back to the orchard, loaded two large baskets of longan, and delivered them to a fruit shop in the city.

On her trip back to the city, she left two boxes of the best and freshest fruit, intending to send them back to the Feng family.

The car was parked outside the villa. She carried the fruit up the steps and walked inside.

The door had a combination lock, and Feng Jiashu had told her the password.

She put the fruit down, stretched her stiff arms, and then entered the password.

With a "ding——" sound, the door opened.

She bent down, picked up the two boxes of fruit, and stood up, when she was suddenly startled by Ding Ruolian.

Ding Ruolian was wearing a silk apricot-colored nightgown with a very deep V-neck. Her hair was disheveled, and she had a gold face mask on. She looked very relaxed and lazy, not at all like a nanny.

Before He Qiaoyun could speak, Ding Ruolian asked first, "Why are you back?"

Her questioning tone revealed her dissatisfaction.

He Qiaoyun smiled faintly, "These are fruits from my orchard, I brought them for Mr. Feng to try."

Ding Ruolian glanced at her with disdain in her eyes, showing no intention of helping, but just smiled insincerely, "Oh, then bring it in."

After saying that, she saw that He Qiaoyun was still not moving, and asked, "What's wrong?"

He Qiaoyun reached out and handed her the two boxes of fruit she was carrying, saying, "I can't carry them anymore, can you give me a hand?"

Ding Ruolian subconsciously reached out and took the two boxes of fruit. The weight pressed down on her, and she had to steady herself.

He Qiaoyun stretched her stiff hand again. "Thank you."

Ding Ruolian: "..."

They walked in one after the other. He Qiaoyun caught a whiff of secondhand smoke and frowned slightly.

After placing the fruit in the kitchen, Ding Ruolian came out with two red marks on her arms from being pressed by the two boxes of fruit, and her face mask had fallen to her chest. Anger flashed in her eyes.

When He Qiaoyun saw her come out, she asked, "Xiao Ding, were you smoking inside?"

A flicker of panic crossed Ding Ruolian's eyes as she peeled off the face mask that had fallen onto her chest, saying:

"No, I didn't smoke. It was a repairman who smoked when he came to fix the water pipe. You know how uncivilized these country folk are. I'm a woman living alone with a child, so I don't dare to say anything to him."

The act of peeling off the face mask diverted He Qiaoyun's attention and concealed her lying eyes.

He Qiaoyun then asked, "Where is Tian Tian?"

Ding Ruolian smiled. "Tian Tian is in her room. Should I call her?"

He Qiaoyun shook her head, "No need," but her gaze unconsciously drifted to her deep V-neckline, and she finally couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Ding, aren't you doing any work? Why are you dressed like this?"

Ding Ruolian met her gaze and said with a smile, "After finishing the work, I wanted to put on a face mask to relax. Mr. Feng allowed it; he said I could rest after finishing the work."

He Qiaoyun didn't say anything more, after all, she was just staying there temporarily, and this was the host family's business.

As she spoke, she turned her head and glanced down, seeing Tian Tian coming down the stairs.

He Qiaoyun smiled and waved to her, "Tian Tian, ​​Aunt He brought you some longan from the orchard, come down and have some."

Tian Tian stood on the stairs, looking somewhat dazed. Her face was thin, and her lips were pale, as if she had suffered from malnutrition due to years of not having enough to eat.

Ding Ruolian didn't want Tian Tian to have too much contact with He Qiaoyun, so she smiled and said to Tian Tian, ​​"Tian Tian, ​​are you sleepy? Why don't you go back and take a nap? Aunt Ding will peel some longans later, and you can eat them when you wake up."

Tian Tian just looked at them for a long time before nodding. Her lips moved, but no sound could be heard; she seemed weak and listless.

Seeing Tian Tian like this, He Qiaoyun felt a little uncomfortable. She asked, "Has Tian Tian had lunch?"

Ding Ruolian replied without hesitation, "Of course, but she has a severe loss of appetite and only ate a few bites."

He Qiaoyun went upstairs. "Children don't like to eat, so it's okay if they eat some fruit to fill their stomachs."

She walked up to Tian Tian, ​​who subconsciously took two steps back, almost losing her balance and falling backward.

He Qiaoyun reached out and caught her. "Be careful, don't fall."

Wearing little clothing in the summer, He Qiaoyun felt as if the body she caught was just skin and bones, with almost no weight.

She frowned. "Why are you so thin?"

Tian Tian struggled, her voice weak and feeble: "Let me go..."

He Qiaoyun released her and said gently, "Okay, I'll let you go. Look how pale your lips are. Why don't you go down and eat something? Even if you don't eat rice, eat some fruit, otherwise you'll collapse in the wind."

Tian Tian stared at her blankly, remaining silent for a long time.

He Qiaoyun took her hand and said, "Let's go."

Tian Tian was led downstairs by her and sat on the sofa. Even though it was her own home, she moved very awkwardly.

He Qiaoyun picked up a piece of fruit from the table, peeled one, and handed it to her. "This was picked by your aunt from the orchard. Try it and see if it's sweet."

Tian Tian took the jade-like longan, put it in her mouth, and seemed to cherish it. She chewed it slowly and carefully, and even wanted to chew the pit and swallow it.

He Qiaoyun peeled several more and put them in a small dish.

Tian Tian ate very cautiously, occasionally looking up.

He Qiaoyun noticed this action and, following Tian Tian's gaze, saw that she was looking at Ding Ruolian.

really weird.

She said to Ding Ruolian, "Xiao Ding, go and cut some other fruit."

Ding Ruolian said, "Tian Tian will be taking a nap soon, so she can't eat so much fruit."

“I’ll eat it,” He Qiaoyun said.

Ding Ruolian got up, said "okay," and then went into the kitchen.
