"Who’s calling mom?" Lele asked when he heard soone shouting his mother’s na.
"It’s that bad auntie who wants to marry Uncle," Yangyang replied before Yang Chuxia could speak. "But it’s weird, why is she in the Capital City, and why does she look like that? So ssy, she’s almost turned from an aunt to a grandma."
"..." Yang Chuxia couldn’t help but twitch her mouth; her son was starting to develop a sharp tongue.
"Yang Chuxia, stop, stop for !"
The person behind kept shouting, making many people stop and watch.
Yang Chuxia initially intended to have the carriage keep going but thought about it. She was curious about how Qian Xiaoqing got to the Capital City, so she had the carriage stop to the side.
"Yang Chuxia!" Finally, panting heavily, Qian Xiaoqing caught up to the carriage.
"Qian Xiaoqing, long ti no see. Do you need sothing?"
Looking at the person in the carriage, calm as a breeze, dressed in splendid clothing and adorned with expensive accessories, Qian Xiaoqing’s eyes darkened, her underlying hatred churning like clouds and moon.
She caused her such suffering, yet she can face her so calmly.
"I finally found you!" Qian Xiaoqing smiled.
"Looking for ?" Eyebrows raised, "What for?"
"Yang Chuxia, can you take in? I just arrived in the Capital City, have no money, and no place to stay. I’m about to starve." Qian Xiaoqing’s eyes carried a glimr of hope, "For my aunt’s sake, can you take in?"
Take her in? For Ms. Qian of Wang Family’s sake? Yang Chuxia found it amusing. Where does this person get her nerve? Besides, what face does Ms. Qian have in front of her?
Seeing Yang Chuxia not speaking, Qian Xiaoqing secretly cursed in her heart. She had already shalessly begged her, yet she still didn’t offer to take her in. Truly as heartless as a viper.
"Xiaxia, please be kind." Qian Xiaoqing cried, "Look, you have a carriage, dressed in gold and silver, your family surely lacks nothing. Just take in. I have nowhere to stay at night; it’s so dangerous to sleep in a rundown temple, I’m scared. Don’t worry, I eat very little, one stead bun a day is enough. Please, for my aunt’s sake, take in. I can do a lot of chores, laundry and cooking are fine."
"Where’s your husband?" Ignoring her nonsense, Yang Chuxia bluntly asked, "Why are you alone?"
Hearing Yang Chuxia ntion that old beggar, Qian Xiaoqing felt a wave of nausea, but her face showed a layer of sorrow.
"He, he passed away." Qian Xiaoqing wiped her tears and said, "With no child, it’s just left. In the town, everyone bullied , I couldn’t survive, so I ran away. When I arrived at Wangquan Town, I heard my aunt and them were coming to the Capital City for a wedding, so I secretly followed along. But when I reached the Capital City, they disappeared."
Yang Chuxia listened with a frown, unexpectedly, that old man really died, and she followed them secretly to the Capital City.
Humph, it sounds pitiful, but she would never take in soone like that.
"My uncle has been in the Capital City for quite so ti now. Since you ca with them, you must have been staying in the Capital City for about a month. In all this ti, you haven’t starved to death. Even if I don’t take you in, you can manage just fine. Since that’s the case, I won’t bother, and our residence is small, can’t accommodate so many people."
Saying this, Yang Chuxia lowered the carriage curtain. Just as she instructed the coachman to move on, Qian Xiaoqing imdiately stopped them with her hands.
"Yang Chuxia, how can you be so heartless?"
