Zhang Jisheng looked at Qi Fenglian busying herself around the room, her face adorned with a satisfied smile, a kind of smile he had never seen before. At their old home, she never had such an expression on her face. Could it be because they had come to Qing City, far away from their hometown and relatives?
Thinking this, Zhang Jisheng felt somewhat choked up and said with a sour tone, "Look at the corners of your mouth, grinning as if you’ve found several bars of gold."
Qi Fenglian’s hands paused, and she turned her head, "What do you mean by that?"
"Isn’t it so? I see you looking very happy. At home, I never saw you smile like this. You still manage to smile, while Xiao Bao is probably crying his throat sore by now!" Zhang Jisheng said sourly.
His words truly hit her where it hurt, and not just anywhere but the most tender and painful spot. Immediately, Qi Fenglian was reminded of the time not long ago when Xiao Bao was crying bitterly, not letting her leave.
He was such a young child, not even a year old. Who knew if he would hold a grudge against her in the future.
Qi Fenglian’s heart turned sour, her eyes reddening as tears welled up, but she said stubbornly, "You always bring up the worst at the wrong time. Do you think I wanted to leave my brother and sister behind? If it wasn’t for the sake of our family, would I separate from them? It’s as if you make it sound like I want to live a good life alone, not caring about their wellbeing at all."
Zhang Jisheng, feeling the sting of her words, softened and coughed to change the subject, "This house costs eight yuan. Why is it so expensive?"
Qi Fenglian looked around and said, "This is Qing City, and it’s near the train station. It makes sense that it’s a bit expensive. I think it’s not bad. Once we settle down here and earn money, we can bring Yunyun and the others here to live together, reuniting the family."
This was her only motivation and support!
