Chapter 73 The scheming mother
After a while, Zhang Yi heard a knock on the door.
What followed was Uncle You's voice.
"Zhang Yi, this is You Jiguang. Are you at home?"
He habitually glanced outside through the surveillance camera.
But Zhang Yi soon frowned.
Because standing at the door was not only Uncle You, but also a woman holding a child.
Although she was wrapped in a thick down jacket, Zhang Yi knew that she must be the mother Xie Limei.
"What is she here for?"
Zhang Yi still has a good impression of Uncle You, but he has no friendship with Xie Limei.
And because of his experience and judgment in his previous life, he always felt that this woman was not simple.
Zhang Yi stood up from the chair and walked to the door.
Zhou Keer just glanced at it but did nothing. Zhang Yi was the master of this family.
Zhang Yi came to the door without opening the door, "Is it Uncle You?"
he asked knowingly.
Uncle You said: "Yes, it's me."
At this moment, Xie Limei behind him said first: "Zhang Yi, our sugar baby has a high fever. Please help her!"
There was a cry in her voice.
Zhang Yi took out a box of acetaminophen suspension drops and a box of small sunflower cold liquid that he had prepared long ago, and then threw them out from the shooting hole above.
"Then quickly take the medicine and give it to the child! Being sick at this time is not a trivial matter."
Uncle You quickly picked up the medicine on the ground, his eyes full of excitement.
"Zhang Yi, thank you, thank you so much!"
Xie Limei took the medicine.
Uncle You wanted to lead her along, but a strange light flashed in her eyes.
She said: "Zhang Yi, I want to ask you something. Can you let the baby stay at your house for a while first?"
"I know there is a heater in your house, which is relatively warm. But our house is cold!"
"The baby is sick now, and I'm worried about her freezing. Can you help us with this?"
Uncle You next to you was stunned for a moment.
Xie Limei didn't tell him about this when she came.
He felt a little embarrassed because he had never communicated with Zhang Yi before coming.
Now Xie Lihua suddenly proposed to put him in the middle, which was very embarrassing in terms of face.
But seeing Xie Limei's sad eyes, he didn't know what to say.
In the room, Zhang Yi's mouth curled up slightly when he heard Xie Lihua's words.
Pushing the envelope?
"Is it Sister Xie? I'm so sorry. I can't let anyone in during this extraordinary time. Besides, our coal is almost running out. To be honest, the temperature is not much better than outside."
Zhang Yi would not be persuaded by her.
Xie Limei said nicely, for the sake of the children.
But neither he nor Zhou Keer had any experience in taking care of children. Even if they did, he would be too lazy to do such a useless thing.
So once the child is let in, Xie Limei can follow in the name of taking care of the child.
It's easier to ask God than to send him away. If she has some bad intentions, wouldn't Zhang Yi have to be on guard 24 hours a day?
He doesn't even bother!
Hearing Zhang Yi's words, Uncle You also whispered to Xie Limei: "Zhang Yi is very interested in us and even gave the child medicine. Let's go back and put on more clothes so that we won't get cold."
Xie Limei wiped her tears and said with a cry: "What do you know as a man? The baby is so small and very fragile."
She then said to Zhang Yi inside the door: "Zhang Yi, I know this request is a bit inappropriate. But I really have no choice!"
"Eldest sister knows that you are kind-hearted, so she shamelessly made this request."
"Please, for the sake of the baby and Brother You, let the baby stay at your house for a while!"
The words came to this point, and Uncle You next to him was also involved.
Generally speaking, people who are not particularly hard-hearted will relent.
When you make a big request of someone, it's best to make a small request first.
Then after the other party agrees to the small request, he will be embarrassed not to agree to the big request.
It can be seen that this woman is not simple.
Xie Lihua deliberately did not communicate with Uncle You in advance, but waited until Zhang Yi had delivered the medicine before she proposed to let the baby live in Zhang Yi's home.
But she underestimated how hard Zhang Yi's heart was.
Zhang Yi stood leaning against the door with his arms folded, "Sister Xie, if this request is made before the end of the world, I will definitely agree."
"Now you also know, hey, everyone in this building wants to rob my house and want my life."
"I'm really scared and don't dare to let strangers in."
"I believe you can understand me, right? Uncle You, you should understand, right?"
Uncle You nodded repeatedly.
At this time, he was very embarrassed to be caught in the middle, but the gratitude he faced Zhang Yi in his heart made him unwilling to continue to trouble Zhang Yi.
"Yes, Zhang Yi is good enough to us! Otherwise, who would be willing to give us medicine? Do you know how difficult it is to get medicine now?"
Xie Limei bit her lip and did not refute Uncle You. She just had tears in her eyes and looked pitiful.
"But didn't he let Zhou Keer live in their house?"
Zhang Yi smiled contemptuously and said, "Zhou Ke'er is my girlfriend. Is there any problem?"
When Zhou Keer heard this drama, although she knew in her heart that Zhang Yi was just perfunctory, the corner of her mouth still curled up slightly.
Compared with the truth, women care more about men's sweet words.
Even if she knew it was false, she would hypnotize herself and think it was true.
Xie Limei frowned slightly, seeming to be thinking of something to say.
But Uncle You is not as thick-skinned as she is!
Zhang Yi has helped him several times, he can't lose face!
So he pulled Xie Limei and said with a serious expression: "Let's go, don't cause trouble to others. Zhang Yi is interesting enough to us, don't go too far!"
Seeing that Uncle You was really angry, Xie Limei immediately changed her face to look aggrieved.
"I know, I don't want to do that either, it's all for the sake of the children."
Uncle You said to the room: "I'm sorry, Zhang Yi. Don't argue with her. Thank you for this incident!"
Zhang Yi also said: "It's okay, everyone can understand this feeling. Let's support each other!"
Through surveillance, Zhang Yi saw Uncle You taking Xie Limei and the child downstairs.
He returned to the dining table and said to Zhou Keer: "This woman is in some trouble!"
Zhou Keer said disapprovingly: "Aren't there many such people?"
Zhang Yi shrugged: "That's true, but I have a good relationship with Uncle You. I'm afraid that she will interfere with our relationship in the future."
Uncle You is the ideal wage earner chosen by Zhang Yi.
Zhang Yi didn't want this Uncle You to have a woman next to him who would blow some unhealthy rumors into his ears.
Zhang Yi was a little more wary of Xie Limei.
At the very least, she coveted Zhang Yi's house and supplies.
