Actually, after getting the divorce certificate, Zhou Xueqin''sst visit to her parents'' home was to bring two pairs of Victory brand spiked shoes.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Yan Xiaowang thought they were bought for him and Little Lang, and tried them on, but Zhou Xueqin snatched the shoes away, kicked Xiaowang''s old rubber shoes in front of him, and left without looking back, carrying the two brand new pairs.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Xiaowang had been saving money, just wanting to buy a pair of Victory brand rubber shoes for himself and Little Lang.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
The child dreamed that his money was stolen, and cried out in distress, which also woke him up.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
When he woke up, he saw Little Lang sitting on the edge of the kang bed, wearing a brand new pair of Victory brand spiked shoes.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0

"Shoes, mine!" Little Lang was trying on his shoes, putting his chubby little feet in and slowly stepping onto the ground. The rubber spikes bounced his fat feet back, and he immediately cried out: "The shoes are moving."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
These shoes were strange - if you tried to press down, they would bounce your feet back up.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
The little one bounced with each step, the flesh on his round bottom jiggling, his little mouth forming an O shape, making an "oh" sound with each step.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
These new shoes were really fun.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
In the height of summer, Zhaodi preferred to wear sandals, but next door Ningning had been wearing a pair of spiked shoes recently. Now that she suddenly had a new pair of shoes too, of course she wanted to go out for a run wearing them. She went out the courtyard gate calling: "Ningning, are you there?

The little girl wanted to show off and be a bit vain.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0

Sooner orter, she would leave his dad just like Zhou Xueqin did.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
The pessimistic Yan Xiaowang didn''t say anything outwardly, but he was determined not to wear these shoes. He was still nning to save money to buy shoes for himself.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
So he stepped into his old shoes with the cloth insoles worn away, only the mesh remaining, looking like they were about to fall apart. Though they hurt his feet, Yan Xiaowang didn''t feel ufortable at all.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0

Actually, from when she first arrived until today, Chen Men had only been home for four days total.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
The rice and flour had gotten bugs, so she needed to buy new ones. The oil had also gone rancid, so it was best to throw out the old oil and rece it with a new container to eat.

So she still needed to go out to buy oil, rice and flour.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
But just as she reached the vige entrance, she saw Yan Xiaowang standing with his arms crossed, lower lip slightly pouting, eyes red, intently staring at the Bank of China across the street.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
She looked over too, and to her surprise, Zhou Xueqin and Lu Jingyu were standing in front of the Bank of China. Lu Jingyu was holding severalrge banknotes, facing Zhou Xueqin and smiling.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Could this be the same old routine from her past life?<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Buying 500 yuan of government bonds on the day of getting the marriage certificate, and now with bond prices soaring, they had earned several dozen yuan. Lu Jingyu was probably praising Zhou Xueqin for bringing him good fortune.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Zhou Xueqin wasughing heartily, linking arms with Lu Jingyu as they walked away smiling.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0

But after noticing Xiaowang, she immediately lowered her head, pretending not to recognize him, and hurriedly walked away pulling Lu Jingyu along.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Even though everyone has their own reasons for divorce, and marital breakups are never solely one party''s fault.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
But in this moment, Chen Men, who had lived an extra lifetime, couldn''t help but feel angry. Even if Zhou Xueqin had suffered greatly in her past life, even if she wanted to enjoy life in this lifetime, how could the child be so innocent? Since she had seen him, why pretend not to recognize him?<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Thinking of this, Chen Men felt even more sorry for Xiaowang. She didn''t disturb him, but turned and entered the grain shop.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
She had to choose the best Mizhi fine rice and buy a bag, and select a bag of Tianshan flour from Xinjiang for its chewiness and sticity, especially good for pulled noodles.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
For oil, she needed to buy the most fragrant cold-pressed rapeseed oil from the state-run store.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
After buying everything, she didn''t carry it herself, but spent an extra yuan to have the shop staff deliver it home.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
In her past life, she always liked to do everything herself, wearing out her body. The only one who cared for her was Zhaodi. Looking back now, it really wasn''t worth it.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Now, Chen Men didn''t n to expend effort on anything money could solve.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Leaving the grain and oil shop, she still needed to go to the vegetable market.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
She had to buy a big watermelon, and pears were only 0.2 yuan per jin, so 5 jin for just 1 yuan - she had to get 5 jin.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Chen Men had just weighed a watermelon and was selecting pears when she saw two little ck paws reach out and take the big watermelon from her hands, hugging it.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"You''re actually buying so much fruit?" It was Yan Xiaowang, who had taken the watermelon and was hugging it.

"My Zhaodi often eats watermelon, and I''ve never seen her wet the bed?" Chen Men countered.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Yan Xiaowang pouted: "Well I rarely eat it anyway."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Though he said this, the little one was hugging the five-jin watermelon, and even pressed his face against it to sniff, sighing.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
When he thought Chen Men wasn''t looking, he even lightly licked the watermelon rind.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
It was clear this child hadn''t eaten many good things at his grandmother''s house.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Just like Zhaodi in her past life, for any food he liked, even just smelling it brought out a greedy look.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0

Most people don''t understand and would say the child has an innate poor and miserly air.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
But it''s actually because the child is living under someone else''s roof, lonely and afraid, without a sense of security. Over time this induces not an illness, but a bad habit - once developed, it''s a vice that can''t be changed for life.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Actually, when I was little, my grandmother also told me eating watermelon would make me wet the bed. But I didn''t believe it. One day, I secretly ate more than half a watermelon. I just had to pee a bit more at night, getting up to go a few extra times. I didn''t wet the bed at all," Chen Men couldn''t help saying.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
