Chapter 561 Grievance
"Sergeant, we have so many fish for just one meal. Can we finish them? Aren't you wasting money?" Zhao Xiaohui couldn't hold back her anger when she saw more than twenty fish, which weighed about eighty kilograms.
It was mentioned before coming here that fish caught from the reservoir would be charged. She was not sure how much a pound of fish was charged in Qiyun Village, but she knew how much fish was sold at the supply and marketing cooperative. A pound was 30 cents. If calculated at 30 cents, wouldn't these 80 pounds of fish cost 24 yuan?
Twenty-four dollars!
On average, each person has to pay about one dollar. This time, each person who came to Qiyun Village paid three dollars. If it continues like this, three dollars will definitely not be enough. Who knows how much more money will be needed later.
Zhao Xiaohui's family was not very wealthy, and she did not have much money for living expenses for a semester. The reason why she was willing to pay three yuan to come to Qiyun Village this time was because she had her own little thoughts. She fell in love with Xie Lei, but had never dared to confess her feelings to him. This time, she was instigated by Song Yufang, and she wanted to take advantage of this trip to play and find a chance to create some opportunities with Xie Lei. Xie Lei was good-looking and his family was not short of money. She felt that Xie Lei was a suitable partner.
In the afternoon, she originally wanted to find an opportunity to communicate with Xie Lei, but she didn't expect that she missed him because of a lack of attention. Then, Song Yufang dragged her to see the flowers, so she had to go to the orchard with Song Yufang. Unexpectedly, she came back very angry.
Huo Tao frowned slightly after hearing what Zhao Xiaohui said, and said, "Student Zhao Xiaohui, the cost of these fish was not paid for by the public account of our spring outing. You..."
Before Huo Tao could finish, Zhao Xiaohui said sarcastically, "It turns out that someone is showing off again. Humph, it's just a few bucks, but she has the habits of a young lady. Ha!"
After saying that, he glanced towards Su Qing's room. It was obvious that after hearing what Huo Tao said, Zhao Xiaohui took it for granted that the money for the fish this time was paid by Su Qing.
Zhao Xiaohui has always disliked Su Qing. She has a good relationship with Song Yufang. Last year, Song Yufang's family lost a large sum of money because of Su Qing and Li Huan, which caused Song Yufang's brother and sister-in-law to be very dissatisfied with Song Yufang. As a result, Song Yufang's life is very difficult now. She has little money and dares not go home easily.
Zhao Xiaohui has always been standing up for Song Yufang, thinking that Su Qing and Li Huan were too aggressive. They clearly had no shortage of money, yet they still forced Song Yufang's family to pay so much money.
Over the past six months, Su Qing often took leave from school, which made Zhao Xiaohui feel that Su Qing was abusing her family's influence to gain privileges.
Su Qing and Li Huan were still in the room. Chen Juan saw them and looked at Zhao Xiaohui angrily and asked, "Zhao Xiaohui, what do you mean? You are talking in a weird way. Are you sick?"
"What are you doing? Did I say anything to you?" Zhao Xiaohui hated Su Qing, and naturally she hated everyone around Su Qing. Seeing Chen Juan questioning her, she immediately hit back, "Why, you are the one showing off? Can't you see that you are rich now? It turns out that flattery works. The little money that leaks from people's fingernails is enough for you to spend for a long time."
Chen Juan was so angry at Zhao Xiaohui's words: "Are you sick? You're like a hedgehog. They have money and they didn't steal or rob. Why are you so jealous? They have money because they have ability. It's ok for you to be so sarcastic. You think these fish are just for showing off. If you have ability, don't eat them."
"You..." Zhao Xiaohui was about to say she didn't want to eat it, but she heard Xie Lei coming over and saying, "What's wrong? I invited everyone to eat these fish. Do you think I'm showing off? Just like Chen Juan said, you can just not eat it."
Zhao Xiaohui was stunned by this sentence. She never thought that these fish were prepared by Xie Lei for everyone to eat. Suddenly, her face turned red and tears flashed in her eyes. Zhao Xiaohui looked at Xie Lei aggrievedly: "I'm not talking about you."
"But I bought these fish. Who else could you be talking about if not me?" Xie Lei frowned.
"I, I didn't say anything about you anyway." Zhao Xiaohui felt wronged and tears fell.
Song Yufang whispered, "Xie Lei, how could you do this to Zhao Xiaohui?"
Xie Lei was puzzled: "What's wrong with me? I just told the truth to prevent Zhao Xiaohui from wrongly accusing others. Why, you can be sarcastic to others, but you can't let me tell the truth?"
After Xie Lei said this, Zhao Xiaohui's tears fell even harder. She and Xie Lei actually didn't talk much. Although she liked Xie Lei, she was too embarrassed to confess her feelings. Only Song Yufang knew what she was thinking.
However, in front of so many people, being scolded by the person she loves, she just felt very uncomfortable. Finally, she stamped her feet in anger and said, "Okay, you have money, you are right, I won't eat it, okay?"
After saying that, Zhao Xiaohui went back to her room crying. Song Yufang glanced at Xie Lei and hurriedly chased after her.
Xie Lei looked puzzled and said to Huo Tao, "Is Zhao Xiaohui okay? I was just telling her the truth. Why is she crying like this? It's as if I bullied her."
Huo Tao didn't understand either, so he patted Xie Lei on the shoulder and said, "Girls are shy, and I guess she won't be able to keep her face after hearing what you said. You can give her some fish later, and then we can talk it out."
Xie Lei had a stubborn look on his face. "I won't go. I didn't say anything wrong. She was clearly slandering Su Qing. She was the one who spoke ill of her. I was just speaking a fair word. If she needs to apologize, she should apologize to Su Qing."
"That's right." Chen Juan said, "Zhao Xiaohui has been targeting Su Qing for no reason. You all know that she has a problem. She doesn't need to threaten people by not eating fish. Who would beg her to eat? I think she has the problem of a young lady. She needs people to coax her first."
Huo Tao actually didn't like Zhao Xiaohui's behavior. Thinking that Song Yufang was following him, he thought for a moment and said, "Okay, let her take it easy. She'll probably be fine tomorrow."
At this time, Zhao Xiaohui ran back to her room and fell on her bed, crying. Song Yufang followed in and advised, "Xiaohui, don't cry. You know that Su Qing is good at winning people over. She has money to give benefits to those people, so they will naturally side with her."
After that, Song Yufang sighed again and said, "Besides, her family is rich and powerful, who can fight against her? Otherwise, my family would not have compensated her such a large sum of money last year."
"But Xie Lei still helped her to say bad things about me." Zhao Xiaohui cried.
"Who knows what means she used." Song Yufang said: "You also know that she is beautiful, rich, and has a good family background..."
Song Yufang's words made Zhao Xiaohui even more angry towards Su Qing. She even felt that Xie Lei was targeting her because he liked Su Qing.
The person you like likes the person you hate. This feeling is terrible. Zhao Xiaohui bit her cheek and turned to look at Song Yufang with tears in her eyes: "Yufang, are you willing to accept this?"
