Chapter 344 Moving 11
After having dinner at Liu's house, Zhan Mengyan asked for the key to the corner door of the backyard and insisted on walking to school. She also demanded that Liu Wei not pick her up from school in the future, otherwise she would "move out" immediately and find another place to live.
Zhan Yingying helped Liu Wei's mother clean up the dishes and put Zhan Mengyan's luggage and other daily necessities in the old house in the backyard. She also had to hurry back to the barber shop.
"Auntie, I'll leave Mengyan in your care. She will move in when the school provides accommodation. Dormitory beds are a bit tight right now. Mengyan didn't go to school until more than a month after the semester started, so she didn't get a bed."
Zhan Yingying bid farewell to Liu Wei's mother and was sent back to the barber shop by Liu Wei.
In the barber shop, Yunhan and Liu Sida are cutting hair for customers.
"Liu Wei, go home. Didn't your mother say she wanted to go to the old Kong family? Go with her. When you come back, find a place and find a way to call our village to inform my father and mother: Grandma Kong has passed away!"
While Zhan Yingying was speaking, she was wearing her work clothes and began to skillfully wash the hair of the customers who had just had their hair cut.
Liu Wei was about to leave when Yunhan stopped him. He wanted to take Liu Wei's ride to the old Kong family.
When the customers left the barber shop one after another, only Zhan Yingying and Liu Sida were left in the shop.
"Junior Sister Yingying, you brought Sister Mengyan to Liu Wei's house today. Did she agree to stay overnight at Liu Wei's house?"
Liu Sida asked as he packed up his barber tools.
"At first, my sister Mengyan didn't want to. Although she is young, she has a lot of thoughts. She mainly thought that I had just started dating Liu Wei and we had no official status. She felt that if I rashly went to stay at Liu Wei's house, I would be controlled by others and the Liu family would look down on me. But now my sister suddenly has no place to live, and I don't want to force my sister to run more than 20 miles home after evening self-study. Alas, there is no other way for my sister to stay at Liu Wei's house."
Zhan Yingying showed a helpless expression when she spoke.
"My house has a ready-made place, but you don't want to let Sister Mengyan stay there. We are senior brothers and sisters. Letting Sister Mengyan stay at my house will not make any irresponsible comments. It is the wisest choice. In fact, Sister Mengyan is right."
As Liu Sida spoke, he looked at Zhan Yingying who was washing towels. He wished in his heart that she could let Zhan Mengyan stay at his house. This way, he would have more opportunities to contact Zhan Yingying.
"Thank you for your kindness, Senior Brother Liu, but now the matter is settled. Sister Mengyan has agreed to stay at Liu Wei's house. We can't go back on our word, but she won't stay for long. Sister Mengyan will apply for a bed at school as soon as possible. My sister is too stubborn. Once she makes up her mind, she can't be changed. I wanted Liu Wei to pick her up from school at night, but she refused. She said that if he picked her up, she would 'move' and no longer stay at Liu Wei's house. It's getting dark, and the evening self-study will be over soon. She lives in Liu Wei's old house today. I don't know if she is used to it?"
As Zhan Yingying was talking, she looked out at the night sky, lost in thought, and saw the stars twinkling with bright light, one, two, three. They flickered unsteadily, like naughty, childish fireflies, or like eyes full of mystery and wisdom. They seemed to see people and played a game of "hide and seek" with them. Their nimble bodies hid here and there, appearing and disappearing from time to time, making Zhan Yingying dazzled.
The sound of a motorcycle engine stopped in front of the barber shop.
Yunhan and Liu Wei walked in.
"Zhan Yingying, close the shop! Close early tonight and don't open for business. After turning off the lights, no one will open the door. When I went to the old Kong family to pay my respects today, I heard about a murder case. The owner of a small shop was killed. Her husband went out to play cards and drink at night, and asked his wife to watch the shop. As a result, something happened. It's terrible! Liu Sida, you should also go home after get off work. Liu Wei, you are responsible for sending us home. Alas, when I went to the old Kong family to pay my respects today, I thought about how strong Mrs. Kong was when she was young, but she was taken away by the disease. The owner of the small shop was only in her forties, but she was taken away by the bad guys. Alas, human life is too fragile. Who knows who will die that day..."
Yunhan showed fear when she spoke.
