Amei nodded hard.
“A bad smell is no problem. When will you have the medicine ready?”
Forget seven days of stink, if a bodhisattva told her swimming in a cesspit would make her hair grow back, she’d jump in and swim for seven days and seven nights without a second thought.
“Probably in about ten days. Mixing the medicine takes quite a bit of time. I’ll bring it to you when it’s ready.”
Chu Qiao didn’t answer too quickly.
In truth, compounding the medicine would only take half a day, but she needed the customer to feel the medicine was difficult to make, so they’d feel better about spending the money.
If it were done in half a day, they’d feel a few thousand yuan wasn’t worth it.
“How could I let you deliver it yourself? Just call me and I’ll come pick it up.”
Amei’s tone had become extremely respectful, completely different from before.
Lulu let out a snort. What a two-faced opportunist.
“Alright, I’m off work.”
Chu Qiao said goodbye to the two of them and left the lounge.
Only Amei and Lulu remained in the room.
Amei straightened her back, fiddled with her wig, glanced at Lulu, and snorted contemptuously.
“I guess you were blind to fall for that pretty-boy,” she replied mockingly. “Your brain must have been directly affected by the alcohol.”
“I have perfect vision. I had my child the right way and got married the right way. Do you really believe that I am like you?”
Lulu shot back, laughing icily.
She had been a perfect example of a respectable married woman before moving to Shanghai.
“Then where’s the kid’s father? Dead?” Amei blurted.
Lulu fell silent.
After a long while, she bit out, “The moment he found out the child was sick, he ran. Who knows whether he’s dead or not? In my heart, he’s died hundreds of times already!”
“Then you really were blind, marrying a heartless bastard like that!”
Just as Lulu opened her mouth to yell, Amei had already spun around and made her way to the door.
She flung it open and stepped outside, her voice drifting back in: “If you’re short of money, just say so, I’ve got plenty!”
With that, Amei took off, running like the wind, and accidentally hit herself across the face.
“Damn it, I told you not to blurt that out. Serves you right, you’ll never make a fortune in this lifetime!”
Lulu stood there stunned, then laughed.
“For f*ck’s sake, she can’t even outsell me at serving drinks, what’s she strutting around for?”
But her eyes had reddened, and tears streamed down.
She wiped them away carelessly, changed clothes, and went to ask Tang Yaozong for leave.
She had to go home and feed her daughter the medicine.
The next day, Chu Qiao woke up early. She had gone to bed early the night before and gotten a full eight hours of sleep.
The stirring music from the radio made her feel energetic, and since she couldn’t sleep anymore, she got up to make breakfast.
It had been a long time since she last made breakfast for Gu Ye and Dabao and Xiaobao.
“Auntie, are we having breakfast at home today?”
Dabao came back from his morning run.
Seeing Chu Qiao busy at the stove, he was overjoyed.
“Mm. Go wash your hands. Breakfast will be ready soon.”
Chu Qiao was making braised noodles with green beans and minced meat. She had rolled out the noodles herself.
Gu Ye and the two children washed their hands and sat down obediently to eat.
The moment they tasted the fragrant, delicious noodles, all three let out satisfied sighs.
It was so good…
Xiaobao flattered shamelessly, “Auntie, the noodles bought outside aren’t tasty at all. They’re not even half as good as yours.”
“Then eat more. You’ll grow tall if you eat more!”
Chu Qiao smiled and patted the little fellow on the head. She picked up another chopstick-full of noodles from the big basin and placed them in Xiaobao’s bowl.
From the corner of her eye she saw Dabao looking at her eagerly, so she gave him another serving too.
Dabao was satisfied at once and happily went back to eating.
Gu Ye curled his lip, moved his bowl over, and jerked his chin at Chu Qiao without saying a word.
He thought his wife ought to understand what he meant.
She’d given extra noodles to the two little ones, she couldn’t possibly forget her husband, could she?
“What are you doing? Hurry up and eat, then go to work!”
Chu Qiao shot him a disapproving look and rapped the back of his hand with her chopsticks.
But when she lowered her head, the corners of her mouth curved upward, and she had to fight not to laugh aloud.
She deliberately refused to put more noodles in his bowl.
Such a grown man, yet still competing with children for affection, so shameless.
