Qi Jingshu didn’t react until she subconsciously followed Wei Mingyan outside of the school.

She clenched her niece’s hand and looked guilty. “Mingyan, I’m sorry …”

If it wasn’t for Jiayu, the man in front of her wouldn’t have lost his job.

When she fell in love with him before, she knew how proud Wei Mingyan was to be a teacher in this school …

A smile appeared on Wei Mingyan’s face. He was handsome, and the appearance of such a simple smile was very eye-catching. “Why are you apologizing? I am the one who wanted to resign.”

“But Jingshu, you’d better transfer Jiayu quickly.” He held out his hand and touched the girl’s head, which was looking up with big eyes, and spoke in a deep voice.” This school is really not suitable for Jiayu.”

“Yeah, I know.” Qi Jingshu nodded in agreement, she really didn’t know what to say.

They met each other because of Wei Mingyan’s teacher status. Now Wei Mingyan resigned for her niece, after they just broke up yesterday.

She’s in such a mess that she really didn’t know what to do.

“You take Jiayu home, and I will handle my resignation.”

Looking at the uneasiness on Qi Jingshu’s face, Wei Mingyan smiled as gently as always to calm her.

Qi Jiayu sat in the car, pulled down the window and looked out. She saw the man with a white shirt and slender figure standing outside the school watching them leave, with a little bit of doubt in her eyes.

“Aunty, why is Teacher Wei suddenly so good to us?”

A child’s memory was either good or bad, but Qi Jiayu hadn’t forgotten the occasional look that Teacher Wei gave her, cold and capable of scaring her.

“Because he is a good teacher.” Qi Jingshu didn’t want to explain her complicated relationship with Wei Mingyan to her niece, and she whispered, “Isn’t he always like this?”

Polite and pleasant, he was like a perfect specimen.

Today in the office, Qi Jingshu could feel her heart beating fiercely when she saw the man who always seemed to have a gentle smile on his face sharply rebuke the parent.

She really never thought that the gentle Wei Mingyan would have such a side. After that, although Wei Mingyan said that he wanted to resign originally, Qi Jingshu still felt that he was trying to vent his anger on Jiayu.

But the man was truly going to quit his job, which was really beyond Qi Jingshu’s imagination.

Wei Mingyan had a good attitude when he pursued her before, but after the two began to talk about love, Qi Jingshu gradually discovered that there was pride deep in his bones, which was always hidden from outsiders, but was on full display in front of his own girlfriend. 

They broke up originally because Wei Mingyan wanted to go further, but Qi Jingshu thought it was too fast.

It was nothing, just a difference in belief, but Wei Mingyan, as if he had been greatly wronged, said with a cold face that he was leaving her, leaving the aggrieved Qi Jingshu behind.

At that time, she felt that she really should reevaluate the relationship between them. 

It’s better to get out early while your feelings weren’t deep.

But today, the man showed her a different side of him.

 

Even though she didn’t know what to do, Qi Jingshu was still busy when she got home.

The Qi’s house was in the north of the city, which could be said to be very shabby. Over the years, neighbors have either moved or renovated their houses one after another, leaving only the Qi’s house as it was before.

Qi Jingshu’s parents died as police officers early on, and the state paid a pension, which was not a small sum at that time. However, with two children in the family, one just graduated from the police academy and the other still in school, especially Qi Jingshu, they had too much to spend on too.

Her brother Qi Jingye made a decision and saved the money as funds to support Qi Jingshu in the future. After so many years, the two children of Qi’s family have grown up, but there wasn’t much money left.

Qi Jingye was going to save enough money to renovate his new house, but for the sake of his daughter, he bit the bullet and used the savings to pay for her fees to attend this prestigious school.

From the beginning, Qi Jingshu was subjected to school bullying, and her brother and sister were helpless, while the lack of options to appeal was so great that he preferred to save money with his wife rather than have his daughter go through the same ordeal.

So after so many years, the Qi family still had no savings.

Qi Jingshu knew how much her brother had paid for her. She became sensible and obedient from an early age and studied hard, just to let her brother breathe a sigh of relief after work. She later graduated from a prestigious university. It’s reasonable to say that work wasn’t difficult to find, but she didn’t know why, even after looking at so many companies, no one was willing to hire her.

She began to worry, but her brother and sister-in-law advised her to take her time in finding her first job, which would usually take a little longer.

Qi Jingshu took her niece’s hand and stood at the door to open it. An old lady carrying a vegetable basket passed by, looking at them with slanted eyes, and said, “You’re still a student from a famous university, but you can’t even find a job, I’m ashamed for you. “

“What’s the use of studying, if you’re not going to support your family.”

Qi Jingshu’s hand that held the key faltered, her face darkening, but she just ignored it, taking her niece through the door.

After the door closed, the old woman spat a ‘pooh’, mumbled something indecent, and walked away with her basket of food.

The Qi family’s parents had gone long ago, leaving behind two sensible children who would be taken care of by the neighbors, so the Qi family’s popularity was considered very good, but the only exception was the old woman just now.

This old lady’s last name is Jin, and her temperament is the same as her last name, stingy to the core, and she is devoted to money.     

(TNote: her name is = kōu mén [抠门] / stingy) 

Because the place is pretty big on the north side of town, people would basically gather next to the entrance, and plant some vegetables and whatnot for themselves to eat.

At the time, her brother, Qi Jingye, had just started his job, and he was busy running around every day, as well as finding time to go grocery shopping. Qi Jingshu, who was still in junior high school, bought vegetable seeds and followed the example of her neighbors, and grew vegetables to eat at home.

Most of the neighbors looked at her as a little girl, and they all kindly told her how to fertilize and water her plants. However, after Qi Jingshu carefully fumbled to raise the vegetables, they were stolen overnight.

She was so young back then, and she couldn’t believe what she was seeing and couldn’t stop crying when that happened.

Qi Jingye came back, and found out that Madam Jin pushed a cart to the vegetable market to sell vegetables that day. The vegetables that she sold were exactly the varieties Qi Jingshu grew, but Madam Jin disliked the trouble of farming vegetables and never grew vegetables.

He looked for an explanation, but the old lady had no shame and fell to the ground in a smooth manner, insisting that Qi Jingye had pushed her.

At that time, Qi Jingye was still a young man, and he was at a loss when she made such a ruckus, and Madam Jin even said she would make a scene where he was on duty.

Qi Jingshu cried and pulled her brother home.

When their parents died they were still too young, there was no ability to protect themselves, that old woman seems to have attacked their family, today stealing vegetables, tomorrow passing them a bowl. It’s no use calling the police. It was too small a matter, to file a case.

One time, Qi Jingye couldn’t take it anymore and arrested the person directly to the police station, but instead she made an uproar and arrested an ‘innocent old woman’, but Madam Jin’s unemployed son was also like his mother, good at being unreasonable. 

Yelling that the police officer’s beating of a 70-year-old woman on the Internet. Qi Jingye was furious, but was still persuaded by the leaders to release Madam Jin.

The feud between the two families reached its peak when Qi Jingshu was eighteen years old.

At that time, she was already preparing for her freshman year of college, her brother Qi Jingye was hospitalized after being hit while trying to stop a motorcycle gang, her niece was sick and in intensive care, her sister-in-law was busy every day taking care of her husband and daughter, and the family was quickly struggling to make ends meet.

Just when her sister-in-law was ready to ask her family for help, Madam Jin came to her.

Acting as if they should be thankful that she has done something great, she proudly announced that their family can lend the Qi family 50,000 yuan, but demanded that Qi Jingshu marry her son who was the same age as Qi Jingye.

It should be noted that Qi Jingshu is 9 years younger than her brother, which means that her son, who is 27, wanted to marry Qi Jingshu, who was only 18.

Not in the least bit thinking that she was daydreaming, Madam Jin was still quacking and announcing, “And don’t go to university, a waste of money. What kind of girl goes to university? Marry my son and then quickly give birth to a big fat boy, a good life at home is better than nothing.”

Qi Jingshu was muddled by the news that her brother was in a coma and her niece had been admitted to the hospital, but she was still appalled by Madam Jin’s words.

She was soft-tempered, and she really doesn’t know what to do with the arrogant old lady. Seeing her like this, Madam Kim was even more satisfied, and then she straightened her back, and came forward to pull her.

Although Qi Jingshu was young, she had no parents to rely on at home, and she was good-looking. She usually worked neatly. She has long secretly taken a fancy to her. She originally wanted to ask her son to find a girlfriend. As a result, this little girl actually despises it. Such a great opportunity must be grasped.

Then she was beaten by Qi Jingshu’s sister-in-law and thrown out.

Qi Jingshu’s sister-in-law was famous for being able to fight in the criminal police, but she never fought outside, except when performing official duties. This time, she couldn’t help but beat Madam Jin until she cried. 

She clamored to call the police, and Sister-in-law Qi sneered and pressed her face against the wall. “Do it, you dare to call the police, then I dare to turn your son into a rootless waste! My sister’s ID card is not yet 18 years old, take it to the judge and it’ll be your trash son who gets the sentence.”

Her husband is concerned about what the family can tolerate, but she has no qualms whatsoever about quitting her job if it really pissed her off.

The old Madam Jin had no other merit, but is particularly good at reading people’s faces. Watching the demoness look over with a gloomy face, coupled with little legal common sense, she was scared by her words. She grinded her teeth and ran away with a limp.

How else can one say that people are just bullying and afraid of strength. Since Sister-in-law Qi’s burst of anger, she never extended her claws to the Qi family again. Of course, all kinds of gossip behind it were indispensable.

This time, Qi Jingshu hadn’t found a job after graduation, and if Madam Jin knew about it, it was as if she had a grip on it and was spreading the gossip around.

Sister-in-law Qi told Qi Jingshu to ignore the encounter. Madam Jin is bullying her soft character, she is weak. She may not be able to beat the old, but take it as if the dog was barking and waiting for her to come home.

In spite of this thought, the anger in her heart was still too much to bear.

 

“Aunty, let’s eat, don’t pay any attention to her. Mom says she’s just jealous that our family is having a good time.”

Qi Jiayu has long been accustomed to Madam Jin, knowing that it will be fine when her mother comes back, so she sat down in her small chair to help Qi Jingshu choose vegetables.

“Okay, Aunt will go get the food.”

Qi Jingshu tried to take deep breaths and push down the sullen air in her heart, she must find a good job and make that Old Lady Jin angry!
