Chapter 1697 - 1697 She Is My Sister
1697 She Is My Sister
“Hey! Liu Yun! What are you doing! Don’t you have eyes! Can’t you see that there are people here!” Lu Lin shouted at Liu Yun on behalf of the other women.
“People? What people! I only see a bunch of beasts! You’re worse than pigs and dogs! Don’t gossip outside my house! Get lost! You’re such an eyesore!” Liu Yun said furiously.
These few women lived on the higher floors of the apartment building and did not like women like Liu Yun, who were from the countryside. They had been at loggerheads for a long time.
Wang Nuo and Zhang Cai ran out when they heard the commotion. Seeing that Liu Yun was being bullied, they also stood up for her.
“Why are all of you howling here! Do you think this is your territory and you can behave atrociously here!” Zhang Cai questioned.
“Why are you so arrogant! It’s not like it’s your family who has a car! We didn’t say anything about you! What has it got to do with you!” Lu Lin roared.
“You’re standing outside my door and what you say makes me feel disgusted! I just want to teach all you ignorant things a lesson!” Liu Yun said domineeringly.
“Qiao Mei is my sister! I won’t allow you to say bad things about my sister! I remember that you even bullied Qiao Mei’s two children! How can you still have the cheek to say that you want to take a ride in Qiao Mei’s car now? How shameless! You bully her when she’s not doing well, but when she’s successful, you want to bask in her glory! Pfft!” Wang Nuo pointed at Lu Lin and scolded her angrily.
“It’s none of your business whether I want to take a ride in her car or not! Qiao Mei didn’t even say anything! Why are you arguing with me here!” Lu Lin said indignantly.
Qiao Mei walked out of the house and said with a smile, “The fact is that you’re not welcome to take my car.”
“What did you say!” Lu Lin said as she widened her eyes and looked at Qiao Mei.
“I said, you’re not welcome in my car. This is my car. If you want a ride, it’s 100 dollars per person per trip! In the future, if anyone wants a ride, this is the price you have to pay!” Qiao Mei said.
Lu Lin looked at Liu Yun and the others and said, “See! See! You’re still standing up for her here! She doesn’t even want you to give you a ride too! It’s 100 dollars per person. You should just go and be a robber!”
“We have no intention of taking advantage of Qiao Mei! Get lost! Otherwise, I’ll beat you up with a big stick!” Zhang Cai raised her broom and glared at Lu Lin and the other women with her.
Lu Lin and her group were so frightened that they hurriedly ran home. As they ran, they continued to scold Liu Yun and the others. Lu Lin even tripped and fell and looked extremely comical with her face covered in dust.
After those people left, Qiao Mei brought out the fabric she had bought from the shop in the capital and said, “Ladies, don’t be angry with them. Come and take a look at the fabric I brought back. Each of you has a share. Take a look and see which one you want. You can bring it home to make some new clothes for your family.”
The material was so much better than the ones sold in the county city! The style was beautiful too. They had never seen such beautiful designs!
“I didn’t expect you to keep us in mind even when you go home! This fabric is really beautiful!” Wang Nuo said embarrassedly.
“I know that all of you are very nice to me,” Qiao Mei said seriously.
“You’re younger than us and we’re all neighbors. It’s only right that we take good care of you!” Liu Yun said happily.
“Ladies, come and pick the one you want. Sister-in-law Liu, look at this blue fabric. It’s suitable to make clothes for your child! Sister-in-law Wang, look at this military green color. It’s just right for your second son! I remember that Sister-in-law Zhang’s daughter likes pink the most. This fabric is so nice!” Qiao Mei said.
The women chattered away and began to discuss the style and style of the clothes. There was no end to the discussion. Since they were people who came from poor backgrounds, they knew how to make clothes, but only knew basic sewing and mending. They did not know how to make clothes that looked good.
“Sigh… My daughter doesn’t like me making clothes for her! She says that the clothes I make are too ugly,” Zhang Cai said dejectedly as she held up the fabric.
“Fortunately, I have a son who’s not very picky about such things,” Liu Yun said.
“He hasn’t reached that age yet! My eldest son cares very much about his image now! He even tells me what he wants me to buy… something called a Breton top! I don’t even know what that is!” Wang Nuo said helplessly.
“Oh my! I heard my daughter mention it once! It’s very expensive! One top costs more than 100 dollars!” Zhang Cai said.
“Is that so! It’s so expensive! What kind of clothing costs so much! I can’t buy it for them!” Wang Nuo said quickly.
