Chapter 70: Become Sisters
The contradictions between women always come and go in a moment. Just now they were still in a flaming row, now it seems that nothing has happened.
Shen Cuihua’s supporting group are confused. In fact, they expected to witness a punishment for the bitch, but at last the two have become sisters. So, they stand there with embarrassment.
“Hey, it’s solved now. Let’s go, Hua. I’ll come to visit you the other day!” They say so, and then go away.
Manager Qian asks: “Hua, that’s all?”
Shen Cuihua smiles shamefully and answers, “what can I do? Let people laugh at me?”
People all laugh:
“It is a misunderstanding.”
“Go, go away, don’t surround here. Don’t disturb their business…”
Soon, the crowd breaks up. And only manager Qian and Jin Weiwei and Little Rich remain in the shop.
Little Rich quietly picks up those broken things that have been smashed just now.
Jin Weiwei and Shen Cuihua are already holding each other’s hands, talking and laughing, like old friends for many years.
After a while, Jin Weiwei’s eyes suddenly brighten and she says, “My sister-in-law, I really like transparent and straightforward people like you. Why don’t we become sworn sisters now? Since then, you will be my sister! ”
Shen Cuihua claps without hesitation: “That’s great!”
They two quickly reach a consensus. Just in time, the last shopkeeper left a statue of God of wealth here. Jin Weiwei pulls Shen Cuihua to the God of wealth. “Sister, let’s swear before Guan Gong. I hope our sisterhood can be everlasting. And our business can become better and better!”Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“OK, let’s swear. From now on, you are my sister. If someone bullies you in the county, mention my name. My fame can protect you!”
Then, two women all kneel in front of the statue of Guan Gong.
“Wu God up here. I, Jin Weiwei, swear to be sisters with Shen Cuihua since today. From then on, we will share weal and woe!”
“Wu God up here. I, Shen Cuihua is not eloquent. What I wish is the same as hers!”
After saying that, “bang bang bang”, Shen Cuihua directly kowtows for three.
Seeing Shen is so straightforward and sincere, Jin Weiwei also sincerely follows her to kowtow.
Then, the two become sworn sisters.
“Sister, I will carefully check today’s event and catch the gossiper. If I catch him/her, I will beat him/her to death!”
Jin Weiwei looks at Shen Cuihua’s indignant look, feeling very moved. At first, she contacts with Shen Cuihua in order to appease her, but now, she really likes her sister.
Jin Weiwei sighs and makes a sad look: “sister, actually I know who is the gossiper. After all, no one except for them hates me so much!”
Shen Cuihua is confused. Jin Weiwei just comes to the county to open a shop. How can she has enemies here?
“Who’s the gossiper? Sister, don’t worry, I must support you!”
Shen Cuihua is very gallant. Whoever dares to bully her sister, she must teach him a lesson!
When manager Qian hears this, he says:
“My wife, well, you know the Jiang’s butcher shop that we supply, right? Jiang Qingshou, the shopkeeper, is Jin Weiwei’s second uncle. Once upon a time, Miss Jin lived in her second aunt’s house for a while. At that time, she was always bullied. Later, her father left her in the village and ran away. She was humiliated by her stepmother since she was a little girl. She has just grown up. Her meat shop’s business is improving a little and she wants to open her shop in the county. But Jiang Qingshou tries to make troubles for her… ”
Manager Qian tells the causes and consequences of all.
“What?! How could it be? Jiang Qingshou looks evil, but I never imagine he can do such things. Is this still a human being? ” Before manager Qian finishes his words, Shen Cuihua becomes angry. “No, we can’t let them go!”
“So I said to him a few days ago that if you want to cooperate with our butcher shop, you must break the relationship with Jiang’s butcher shop. Sister, don’t blame me. I can’t forget his indifference and evil. It’s actually my own business, but now bother you… ”
“Sister, why are you saying that? Since we are a family, we will support you. I just didn’t expect that your second aunt and her husband could do such things secretly. Let’s go home and talk about it. I want Jiang Qingshou and his wife to know that I, Shen Cuihua, am not easy to be fooled in this Linshui County! ”
Then, Jin Weiwei and Little Rich are brought back to Guangtong food shop by Shen Cuihua. Although Shen Cuihua is shrewd, she is also virtuous and cooks well. Time is past noon. Manager Qian and his wife have already had their lunch. They know that Jin Weiwei and Little Rich haven’t eaten yet. So, Shen Cuihua specially cooks some dishes, hoping them to eat well.
The misunderstanding is removed now. Jinweiwei is very happy to get a sister. But she still can’t stay for a long time, because today is a special day, and she has more important things to do.
“I konw you are eager to go back home. But it’s late now. It’s better to stay overnight…” Shen Cuihua takes Jin Weiwei’s hands and says reluctantly.
Jin Weiwei sighs and refuses: “I’d like to stay, but actually……Sister, to tell you the truth, today is my mother’s death day. I have to go back and worship her. ”
Shen Cuihua and manager Qian are quiet. In this case, they can’t let them stay any longer. So, they send Jin Weiwei and Little Rich away reluctantly.
Thinking that going back on foot may be slow, Shen Cuihua also rents a carriage with a horse for them. The horse is faster than the donkey. At dusk, Jin Weiwei arrives at Xingtian village, but she doesn’t enter the village, and she turns to the cemetery on the mountain nearby.
On the way back, Jin Weiwei buys a good sacrifice and plans to take it to her mother’s grave. Since mother died for so many years, Weiwei has never worship her. Although Jin Weiwei is not the original daughter, she should also do her filial duty for her.
“I’ll go with you.” Little Rich suddenly takes her hand.
It’s getting dark. Besides, cemetery is a special place. He won’t let Jin Weiwei go alone. It’s not safe.
“It’s OK. I’m not afraid of ghosts. I want to talk to my mother.”
“No.”
Little Rich takes the sacrificial offerings in Jin Weiwei’s hands, and walks to the cemetery first.
Looking at the back of the man in front of her, Jin Weiwei suddenly feels warm.
