Fast travel to the front line of eating melons in the world

Chapter 2188 Cousin is a capitalist lady 14

After finishing their meal, the two quickly left with their lunchboxes. Just as they walked out of the restaurant, they saw several educated youths coming over. Some of them had obviously freshened up before coming over, while others had probably just finished arguing.

When they saw Zhang Yu and the other person, they were both taken aback. "You've finished eating?"

Zhang Yu nodded, "We're quite hungry, so we'll eat first."

"Is there any food in there?" someone asked, wanting to know how good the chef was.

"They must be closing at this hour," Zhang Yu said. "I saw they're open until 6:30."

No one expected the business to close so soon, and they started to panic. "We just arrived! Didn't they know they could extend their hours?"

Zhang Yu was speechless. So they knew the restaurant's closing time, why didn't they come over more quickly? "Let's go, we can take a shower when we get back."

I wonder how many people are out eating. I'll go back now to take a shower, and then I have to do laundry. Sigh.

Zhang Yu felt it was very difficult. "You should rest early in a while. We don't know how long we'll be on the road tomorrow."

Zhang Hui already knew how long it would take to get from the county town to the commune, "but she didn't know how long it would take us to get to the village."

Zhang Yu didn't know that, because the restaurant staff didn't know either. They only knew about the communes below, but not the specific villages.

“We will definitely have a car to get to the commune.” After all, there are so many people. If they don’t arrange a car, they can’t expect the educated youth to walk there with their big bags and small packages. They don’t know if they can get there before sunset.

"Then when we get to the village, we don't know how far it is. What if there's only one oxcart and there are too many people to carry it? We'll just have to put our luggage on the cart and walk." Zhang Yu flipped through the original owner's memories. That's how they walked for more than an hour to the commune.

Zhang Hui, a pampered child, had never traveled such a long distance before. The original owner even argued with the oxcart driver so that she could ride in the oxcart. As soon as she arrived in the village, the whole village knew that she had a bad temper.

The original owner was trying to help Zhang Hui, but when she found out, she stood up to explain the situation. There was nothing wrong with that, but she added that her sister had a bad temper and that she apologized on her behalf.

Oh my god, Zhang Yu got angry when she saw this. What's wrong with her temper? Who doesn't want to be a gentle person? She even apologized on behalf of someone else. So it was Zhang Yu who rode the oxcart all the way back, not Zhang Hui.

This time, let her rest well. If she can't walk anymore, let her figure out a way herself. She can't just walk all the way back in an oxcart and then be remembered as sensible.

"Oh, we still have to walk to the village?" Zhang Hui was surprised. "How long will that take? I... I don't have the strength."

Zhang Hui looked pitifully at Zhang Yu, who also had a helpless expression on her face. "Xiao Hui, don't look at me like that, there's nothing I can do."

“Everyone will be leaving eventually, so just hang in there,” Zhang Yu suddenly blurted out for some reason. “After all, you’re not a rich young lady.”

God knows she really said those words unintentionally, and then she saw Zhang Hui avoid her gaze and not refute her.

This is problematic. You know, "young lady" isn't a good word in this day and age. If someone said that, they would definitely vehemently object and make sure they couldn't have anything to do with it.

But why did Zhang Hui not only not refute her after hearing this, but also avoid her gaze in various ways? There's something wrong, there's really something wrong.

Zhang Yu was curious: did this guy really not know her background? Judging from her current expression, she didn't seem completely unaware. And the way she ordered the original owner around, with that matter-of-fact expression, was it really the attitude of a younger sister habitually making her older sister do chores, or the attitude of a young lady ordering her maid around?

The more Zhang Yu thought about it, the more she wondered if Zhang Hui, whom the original owner thought knew nothing, really didn't know?
Zhang Yu had some doubts, but she also knew she couldn't keep staring at the other person, or it would make them wary. "Xiao Hui, since you're not a young lady, don't act like one. If she can leave, you can leave too."

"Also, don't expect me to hold you back. This is my first time being a sent-down youth, and it's my first time traveling such a long distance."

In their past lives, this group of educated youth thought Zhang Hui was sensible. The original owner was a shrewish and unreasonable person. They just didn't know what the other people would think when Zhang Hui was unable to walk and they had to spend more time getting to the village to wait for her. But that was none of her business. They would just rest while waiting for her.

Zhang Hui had thought that since Zhang Yu was so pitiful, he should offer to help her walk together, but instead he said, "What if I really can't walk anymore?"

"Whatever," Zhang Yu said bluntly. "You'd better figure it out yourself, Zhang Hui. You're a smart person. If you can't walk, what can I do? I can't help you either."

"But you have to have confidence in yourself, you can definitely do it," Zhang Yu said, probably realizing she had been a bit too forceful.

"Sister, didn't you promise Aunt and the others you'd take care of me? You..." Zhang Hui said unhappily.

“I agreed and I received the money, but I was only supposed to help you with chores like washing clothes, cooking, doing farm work, and walking. I really don’t know how else to help you. You really have to do all of these things by yourself.”

"I'll say it again: if you think I'm incompetent, you can talk to your parents." Anyway, the hush money that should be paid must be paid, and Zhang Fu and the others all know that.

Zhang Hui thought that since she had already brought up Zhang Fu, Zhang Yu would definitely back down, but who would have thought that she would have such an indifferent attitude? "Aren't you worried that they won't give you the money?"

“It’s okay. If they don’t pay me, I can write to their supervisor.” Zhang Yu said nonchalantly, “They pay me whether I work or not.”

"Zhang Hui, you agree, right?" Zhang Yu walked ahead, not looking at Zhang Hui's expression.

At this moment, Zhang Hui recalled Xue Lei's ambiguous words. Did Zhang Yu know her identity? Her eyes darkened.

Yes, that's right. Zhang Hui knew her true identity, but it wasn't something the Zhang family told her. They were even thinking that if things improved in the future and the Ge family came back to find Zhang Hui, they could get some more benefits.

Zhang Hui overheard Zhang Gui and Xue Lei talking in the middle of the night a few years ago, and that's how she learned about their situation. She was quite proud of herself, because everyone around her loved their sons more than their daughters. Only in her family did her parents like her, and her uncle and aunt also liked her.

Everyone, from older brothers and sisters to younger brothers and sisters, loves her. She is the happiest person, and everyone around her looks at her with envy.

But she never expected that she wasn't a daughter of the Zhang family at all. She was the daughter of the head of the Zhang family, a rich young lady. She should have lived a life with servants to take care of her, eating rare delicacies, wearing fine silks and satins, and traveling by car.

She will marry a rich man in the future, and her life will be better than it is now. Although the Zhang family treats her well now, can it be as good as living with her parents?

Although she knew that she was in poor health and quite young when her parents passed away, and had to stay behind, she was still unhappy.

She felt that the Zhang family was only after her future rewards, which was why they weren't sending her to Hong Kong. They could have waited until she was older and healthier to send her. (End of Chapter)
