Today I suddenly gave her a coat and took her to a state-owned hotel for dinner. I said it was to make amends, but in fact it was a weasel giving New Year greetings to a rooster, and he was uneasy and kind-hearted.

Hearing the footsteps getting closer and closer, Zhang Lifeng panicked.

"What to do now?"

"Jump out of the window."

Li Xiujun ignored Zhang Lifeng, held the window sill with both hands, and jumped out.

The moment Li Xiujun landed, the door of the abandoned factory was kicked open from the outside.

"Who is playing gangster? Where are the lesbian victims?"

The police broke in and saw a drunk Zhang Lifeng. They turned to ask the reporter Su Wanru.

She clearly saw Li Xiujun being dragged in just now. Where was he?!

Zhang Lifeng forced himself to calm down, glared at Su Wanru angrily, grabbed her, and kissed her on the face with a drunken mouth.

"What, you just want to be a gangster by drinking and finding a place to sleep? My mother doesn't care as much as you do, right?"

When the police officer was about to stop him, he quickly explained: "She is my fiancée. She was unhappy when I went out to drink, and she deliberately acted like a monster."

Su Wanru pushed him away and wiped the area where he had kissed her.

"Don't talk nonsense! Who is your fiancée?"

After saying that, she grabbed the police officer's hand and asked for help. She had had enough of Zhang Lifeng's threats and harassment and just wanted him to be arrested quickly.

"I've slept with her several times. What is she if she isn't my fiancée? You can't be a hooligan!"

Zhang Lifeng pulled the person back to him again, deliberately humiliating her, and shouted carelessly: "She has a small red mole on her chest and a triangular scar on her butt. If you don't believe me, you can ask a female police officer to investigate!"

Several young police officers blushed upon hearing this, gave them a few words of education, and then left.

Zhang Lifeng grabbed Su Wanru's hand, slapped her hard and knocked her to the ground.

"You little bitch! You're trying to hurt me, right?"

Su Wanru was knocked unconscious by him, covered her face and started to cry: "Do you think you have changed your mind?"

"I've changed my mind? I said you were trying to burn bridges by crossing the river!"

Zhang Lifeng grabbed her hair and said angrily: "Back then you begged me to go back to the city through my father's relationship, saying that you would marry me after returning to the city. I waited for you for half a year without seeing anyone. When you came to see you, you pushed back and forth, and even found someone.

Girl, you’re wearing your clothes to frame me!”

The plot was exposed, and a trace of panic flashed across Su Wanru's face.

"She insists on borrowing it to wear, but I'm always embarrassed not to let her wear it!"

After saying that, she smiled coquettishly and took the initiative to kiss Zhang Lifeng on the face. Her tears turned into a smile: "So you recognized her as me. I thought you were a bad person after coming to the city and fell in love with my little sister."

Zhang Lifeng looked at her doubtfully: "Really?"

Su Wanru poked Zhang Lifeng's chest coquettishly and gave him a wink.

"I gave you all my life, and you still don't believe me?"

Zhang Lifeng was immediately confused and expressed his loyalty: "That girl has a shriveled figure, but she can't compare to you. Let me kiss you now. You're going to miss me so much!"

Hearing this, Li Xiujun turned around and left, going home.

The lights in the old house were on, and grandpa was sitting at the door waiting for her. When he saw someone coming, he took out a roasted sweet potato that was still hot from his arms.

"You're hungry. Let's satisfy your hunger first. Let's stew some meat later."

Holding the warm sweet potatoes, her cold body gradually warmed up. Looking at her grandfather's old face, Li Xiujun felt a sore nose.

In her previous life, her grandfather left not long after her accident. Her grandfather, who she depended on for life, never closed his eyes until his death, and was still worried about her poor life in the Gu family.

Fortunately, she was reborn, avoided Su Wanru's frame-up, and no longer had to beg the Gu family to fulfill their engagement.

"Why are you still crying? That girl Wanru bullied you again? I have told you a long time ago that that girl has a bad mind, so you should stop playing with her."

Grandpa spoke earnestly and bent over to add firewood to the stove. White smoke curled up, steam rose up, and the whole house was filled with the aroma of braised pork.

"Grandpa, let me help you."

Li Xiujun sat by the stove fire and wiped her eyes secretly. She was about to leave for college, and her grandfather took out the family's money and thought of ways to make delicious food to replenish her health.

"Why are you crying? You want to go to university in Beijing and you can't bear to leave grandpa?"

Grandpa put the braised pork on the table, filled it with two bowls of rice, and coaxed: "When you graduate from college and make a career, grandpa will go to Beijing with you to enjoy yourself. It's a three-hour round trip, and grandpa can also visit you."

Li Xiujun nodded heavily, she just wanted her grandpa to enjoy happiness now.

Grandpa was frightened by the turbulent times and did not dare to show things to others or resell them. However, he passed on this craft to her and repeatedly ordered her not to show it in front of others.

Times have changed, policies are loose, and she has made countless treasures in her previous life. She is confident that she can make her first pot of gold with her craftsmanship.

He did what he said. Early the next morning, Li Xiujun took all the belongings he had saved and pretended to go to a classmate's house to play. In fact, he took a car to an antique market in the suburbs of Beijing.

In her previous life, she had followed Gu Ming here countless times. The first time she came here by herself, she held thirty yuan in her pocket and stopped at a stall.

There were porcelain, jade, copper coins and snuff bottles on the floor...

Seeing that she was young, the uncle ignored her and let her see what was new.

Li Xiujun spotted a broken jade bracelet in the northwest corner at a glance. She glanced at it with her peripheral vision to make sure again, and then deliberately pointed to the intact jade bracelet on the side.

"Uncle, how much does this cost?"

The uncle raised his eyelids and held out five fingers.

"Fifty hundred dollars."

"It's too expensive. I can't afford it. Can it be cheaper?"

Li Xiujun looked like a small-minded person who had never seen the world.

The uncle was leaning on the recliner, shaking the cattail leaf fan in his hand.

"No, this is an antique, not for children to play with."

"Can the broken ones on the side be cheaper? They are all broken anyway."

Li Xiujun carefully picked up the shapeless piece of jade, which was about the size of a pigeon's egg. Her hands were warm and she looked at the uncle longingly.

"Okay, I'll give you thirty."

"Twenty, I'll buy it at twenty."

Li Xiujun was haggling over the price, already convinced that this man was a dabbler, not proficient in antiques, and just making a living.

"Twenty-five, no more."

Seeing that the uncle was resolute, Li Xiujun quickly took out twenty-five yuan and handed it over, wrapped the jade in a handkerchief, and bought a set of carving tools.

After leaving, Li Xiujun vaguely heard the man at the stall next to him laughing and scolding: "You cheated the little girl out of her money, how dare you sell a piece of jade for twenty-five cents!"

Li Xiujun smiled and said nothing, but she actually made money.

Although this piece of jade is a fragment, it is a rare white jade of good quality. Judging from the texture and clear color, it is at least from the Han Dynasty.

Following the shape and color of the fragment, she went back to carve it again, then made it into an old one, and then doubled it by more than ten times. She could earn more than two hundred yuan from this alone.

First, we repaired the roof of the leaky wing, and then bought some rice, flour, and pork. Grandpa’s favorite was pork and green onion dumplings.

But she had to be careful when carving at night so that her grandfather wouldn't find out, otherwise the old man would have to beat her.
