Chapter 46: Trap
Jin Dabao finds the steamed bread in his hand is like a stone.
“Why don’t you eat it? Eat and go to work. ” Jin Weiwei pretends to be friendly.
“I don’t seem to be very hungry now.” Jin Dabao carries the steamed bread into his arms.
Even in Jiang’s house, he could eat well with his elder sister’s care. But now he can only eat such a steamed bread.
“If you’re not hungry, stop eating. Let’s go.” Jin Weiwei deliberately ignores Jin Dabao’s disgusted look, and pulls Little Rich out of the door.
The four come to the shop together. Tao Xiaoqing opens the door of the shop quickly. After cleaning, he took the meat out of the warehouse and put it on the meat table for the guests to choose. Little Rich begins to settle the accounts that were not finished yesterday. And Jin Weiwei is also busy. She arranges the sausages and checks the packing so that the town can pick up the goods in the morning.
Jin Dabao is surprised to see that they three perform their own functions and work eagerly. He can’t expect that Jin Weiwei, as a silly girl, could manage the meat shop so well.
Jin Dabao, who has nothing to do, stands around for a while, then runs to Jin Weiwei and asks, “What can I do?”
Jin Weiwei stops her work, looks up at Jin Dabao and says, “What can you do?”
Her words stun Jin Dabao.
He really doesn’t know what he can do. All the work in the shop has been arranged in order by Jin Weiwei. It seems that there is nothing he can do.
“Or can I help you deliver?” Jin Dabao points to the sausages that Jin Weiwei just installed. He is familiar with delivery.
“No, Doctor Tang will send someone to take them away in a moment. We don’t need to send them.” Jin Weiwei lifts up the whole box of sausages that have been packed and puts them neatly near the door.
Jin Dabao, who still has nothing to do, has to turn around in the shop with his hands on his back and greets to the acquaintances who come to buy meat.
“Dabao, you won’t go away anymore, right?” asks Mrs. Wang, who lives in the west of the village.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
“No more, no more.” Jin Dabao smiles, knowing that Wang’s words are actually laughing at the fact that he eloped with widow Chen before.
“That’s right. No matter how charming the outside world is, it’s still not so comfortable as your own home. Do you think so?” Aunt Li, standing next to Aunt Wang, also cuts in.
With a smile and a nod, Jin Dabao despises the two women in his heart. How could you two know the happiness outside. After he takes back this shop, he must go back to the county to enjoy his life.
“It’s really a blessing for Dabao to come back this time. Look at the girl of the Jin, she’s really promising.”
“Isn’t it? This girl not only gets married, but also manages Jin’s business so well. I think there’s nothing you need to worry. As a shopkeeper, you just need to enjoy the happiness with your daughter and son-in-law. ”
The two women talk to themselves and are happy for Jin Dabao.
“Yes, yes, I have such a good daughter and son-in-law. It’s really a blessing. It must be the return of my last life.” Jin Dabao smiles against his will.
He doesn’t expect to enjoy any happiness. This girl really hates him in her heart. Like Jin Weiwei, Little Rich is not polite to him, either. How could he enjoy happiness with them? As if!
What’s more, life in the county town is much better than that in this poor rural area. He doesn’t want to manage the meat shop for a lifetime in this kind of rotten place. He must take the shop back, destroy Jin Weiwei’s effort, and then hurries back to Jiang’s house!
Thinking of this, Jin Dabao takes a sneak look at the busy Jin Weiwei – what is the best way to get the shop back from this cunning girl?
Jin Weiwei obviously feels someone staring at her. She looks up and stares at Jin Dabao. Although Jin Dabao quickly takes back his eyes, pretends that nothing has happened and continues to chat with Aunt Wang, Jin Weiwei still notices a bit of uneasiness in his eyes.
“Dad, why are you standing there all the time? Let Xiaoqing greet the guests. Come and have a rest. Don’t be tired.”
Jin Weiwei takes a chair to Jin Dabao, presses him on the chair, then turns her head and says with a smile to Aunt Wang: “my father twisted his feet two days ago. He can’t stand long. I’m really sorry.”
“Tut, tut, tut, they say that daughter is as warm as a jacket to father. That’s right. My son never cares about me like this. ”
“Weiwei is really dutiful. What a good girl!”
“It’s very kind of you. It’s very natural for a daughter to take care of her father.” Jin Weiwei strokes up the fallen hair and says: “What do you need? Just tell Xiaoqing. And I’ll count out the change for you when you check out.”
Hearing this, Mrs. Wang and others immediately run to the meat case with a smile, and ask Tao Xiaoqing to pick the meat.
In the next few days, Jin Dabao follows Jin Weiwei to the shop on time, and then sits around bored until the shop closes.
The guests who come and go all comment that Jin Dabao is lucky and can enjoy happiness without doing anything, but he is terribly bored in heart. Because if he has been so idle and can’t interfere with the business in shop, he really doesn’t know when he will have the chance to take back the shop.
Jin Dabao is bored and sullen, while Jin Weiwei feels no better, either.
Her original intention of keeping Jin Dabao at home is to punish him well. She arranges for him to live in the wood house and eat the hard bread, which are all her low devices. She always wants Jin Dabao to make mistakes, and then she could find fault with him and teach him a lesson. However, Jin Dabao seems to become clever. He follows Jin Weiwei’s words and behaves properly every day.
One day, Jin Dabao follows the three to the shop as usual. Just sitting down, he finds Little Rich brings out a big money box. It turns out that today is the end of the month. He wants to check the cash flow of the whole month.
Seeing that the box is full of silver and a string of copper coins, Jin Dabao’s eyes begin to glow unconsciously. But he doesn’t t know that his excited mood of seeing money is noticed by Jin Weiwei.
Jin Weiwei has a plan then. Instead of waiting for Jin Dabao to make mistakes, why not create an opportunity for him to make mistakes?
Thinking of this, she doesn’t wait for Little Rich to finish counting, and she takes Jin Dabao to the money box and says, “You said you are idle and want to find something to do? Here is the box of money. You can help Little Rich. “
