Reborn 1980 The Thousand Gold Peasant Girl

Chapter 176 176. Consensus
Auntie Liu Ningqiu and Yun Yuanchu had dinner together, and they didn't object.

Watching the children gobble up one by one at the dinner table, Ning Qiu felt a sense of accomplishment.

That guy Yun Yuanchu went too far, he even stared at a boy because of the last dish.After being kicked under the table by Ning Qiu, it stopped.

When dinner was almost finished, Teacher Huang came back from the outside in a hurry.Seeing Ning Qiu and Yun Yuanchu, she was stunned for a moment, and after the auntie explained, she remembered that Ning Qiu had indeed visited the orphanage in Luoyang, and had given a lot of things to the children at that time.

"I didn't even know you were coming, so I made you wait for a long time in vain."

Teacher Huang has lost a lot of weight and looks a lot older.

"We have nothing to do today, Sunday. Let's have dinner first, Mr. Huang. Let's talk while eating."

Teacher Huang nodded with a smile, went to wash his hands, and sat down to eat with the children.Seeing the stir-fried kidney, she hesitated and added a piece into her mouth to chew.

"Sister Zhao, you didn't cook this dish, did you?" Teacher Huang asked.

The aunt smiled, "Of course not, I don't have this skill, these dishes are made by Miss Ning."

Ning Qiu corrected the aunt's address, "I'm not a young lady, call me Ning Qiu." She was often called Miss Qiu a long time ago, and she really minded being called young lady.

"You know how to cook?" Teacher Huang was very surprised. She didn't expect that this seemingly small girl in front of her could have such skills.

"Yes, everyone in my family likes to eat the dishes I cook."

"It's really good. To be honest, I don't like eating offal, but what you cook is very delicious." She looked at the children around and added, "The children like it too."

The children finished their meal one by one, laughed and went back to the room.

Only then did Ning Qiu ask, "Teacher Huang, I want to ask if Ma Dongling still lives in the orphanage?"

Teacher Huang was surprised, "Do you know her?"

"Well, she used to be from the same village as me."

"Before being sent to the orphanage?"

"Yes, how is she doing now? Has she passed the college entrance examination?"

Unexpectedly, Teacher Huang shook his head, "I don't know."

"do not know!?"

"Well, she left on the day the orphanage moved."

"Gone? What do you mean? She didn't say hello to Teacher Huang?"

"Yes, I went to her room to call her during breakfast that day. The door of the room was not closed at the time, so I opened the door and went in. I found that everything she used was gone, including her clothes."

"She left no letter or contact address?"

"No, nothing was left, and I didn't say hello to any of the children or staff in the yard."

"Then her household registration is still in the orphanage?"

Unexpectedly, Teacher Huang still shook her head, "I gave her her household registration documents on the day after the college entrance examination. According to regulations, she should leave the orphanage when she turns eighteen, and she is already nineteen."

Ning Qiu and Yun Yuanchu looked at each other, and they both saw shock in each other's eyes.

"That is to say, she can't be found at all now, unless she takes the initiative to contact the orphanage?"

"Yes."

Sitting on the bus home, Ning Qiu and Yun Yuanchu were silent.

After a long time, Yun Yuanchu asked, "Is it her?"

Ning Qiu didn't answer... If Ma Dongling didn't leave without saying goodbye, maybe she would suspect that she was wrong in her judgment.But now Ma Dongling has completely disappeared, without even saying goodbye to anyone in the orphanage.This is so strange, if it wasn't for some special reasons, why would she leave in such a hurry, so suddenly.

Ning Qiu sighed, "She's gone, at least she won't be returning to Luoyang in a short time. If the murderer is really her, then we are temporarily safe now."

"She got into a school in another province? So she left Luoyang?"

"It's hard to say, unless..."

"Unless what?"

"I can get the voluntary form that Ma Dongling filled out before the college entrance examination."

Yun Yuanchu looked at Ning Qiu, and Ning Qiu happened to look over, and the two seemed to have reached a consensus.

The days came to December in a blink of an eye, and the winter in Luoyang was cold and windy, with small snowflakes falling from time to time.

Contrary to the temperature, the business in the three stores was booming. Ning Qiu had to return to the routine of making dim sum by himself, helping Master Chen and Brother Xu to make it together.Even if the three of them work at full capacity, the supply is still in short supply. In many cases, the three stores only sell until two or three o'clock in the afternoon, and the goods are sold out.

As the business improved, the workload of the three stores increased a lot. Ning Qiu raised the wages in a timely manner, giving each person an extra [-].Adding money is the best motivation, and everyone works harder.

This year the Chinese New Year is earlier than in previous years, starting at the end of January.Ninth Middle School's final exam was scheduled for early January, and the exam didn't put much pressure on Ning Qiu.Instead, I make up lessons for a few friends every day, and I have to go to Sister Xu's to teach Wen Xiaoyan a little lesson on Sunday.

Since changing schools, Wen Xiaoyan has never passed the red light test.After her grades improved steadily, she also regained her confidence.In addition to the tutoring on Sunday, her grades are already in the top ten in the class.

"For Chinese New Year this year, do you want to go back to the village with me?" Ning Qiu asked while tidying up the textbooks on the table.

Wen Xiaoyan hesitated and said, "I... I still won't go back, the store is very busy, I want to stay and help sister Xu."

How could she still have the face to go back after doing those things, seeing her grandparents would only make her more ashamed.It's better to stay here and help take care of the business in the store, which can relieve some guilt.

"Okay, then take good care of yourself, and buy yourself some delicious food and some new clothes after the Chinese New Year." Ning Qiu stuffed 200 yuan into her hand.

"No, no need, I haven't used up what I gave you last month." The more Ning Qiu treats her, the more uncomfortable she feels.

"Don't refuse, this is for you during the Chinese New Year. Sister Xu is a thrifty person. During the Chinese New Year, you can buy something good and let Sister Xu make it. Oh! By the way, remember to send a red envelope to Xiao Miao."

After hearing this, Wen Xiaoyan accepted the money.

When Ning Qiu finished the exam and rushed back to Xiashan Village with his luggage, the rolling mountains were covered in white.The small mountain village has become a few dark dots in the white, there are cyan smoke owls rising, and the roar of tractors in the village can be vaguely heard.

Ning Qiu quickened her pace, and her cotton shoes creaked on the thick snow.The snow soaked the soles of the shoes, but fortunately, the heat from her walking body continued to radiate, so she didn't feel cold.

When I came to the entrance of the village, I happened to see several tractors pulling goods towards the outside of the village. Zhang Changwang, who was driving the tractor, recognized Ning Qiu with sharp eyes.

"Girl Qiu! You're on vacation now!?" He yelled loudly, spraying white mist from his mouth.

"Yeah! Just arrived!"

The uncles on the tractor also waved their hands to greet Ning Qiu, "Girl Qiu! Come with us to the county town to see the farmer's market, it's very lively!"

"I'll go home first, grandma doesn't know I'm back yet." Ning Qiu replied with a smile.

"Go back quickly, the old couple of the Ning family must be waiting impatiently!" The tractor drove away, and Zhang Changwang waved his hands and finally yelled.

"Know it!"
