Chapter 232: Living a Plain Life
Yu Huailin raised an eyebrow and immediately agreed.
After explaining part of the matter, Song Miqiu felt much better. She sighed and was about to head home with Yu Huailin when she noticed it was still early. "Why don't we go and see how Qiu Tianlei's stall is doing?" she said.
“Of course.” Yu Huailin smiled and echoed the other person’s words, following behind him.
He asked Song Miqiu to wait for him so he could remove all the makeup from his face before he went with Song Miqiu to find Qiu Tianlei.
After all, Qiu Tianlei and Tian Yumei had never seen what he looked like after his disguise.
Watching Yu Huailin's actions, Song Miqiu thought to herself, "If Qiu Tianlei and Tian Yumei saw Yu Huailin standing behind me after he had disguised himself, I would find it amusing and ask them, 'If you hadn't removed your disguise and had come with me to find those two, and you were talking intimately with them, what do you think they would have thought?'"
"I never imagined our mother was so capable, finding only young men to help her!" Yu Huailin chuckled as he echoed Song Miqiu's words.
I heard all of this from Qiu Tianlei.
When Yu Huailin heard these words, he almost choked on his own saliva.
But after spending more time with their family, Yu Huailin got used to it.
They arrived near Qiu Tianlei and Tian Yumei's stall. Song Miqiu and Yu Huailin did not go up to disturb them, but stood not far away, watching them busy at work, feeling somewhat moved.
Tian Yumei moved with great efficiency. She smiled as she packed up the items the customer had requested, handed them to the customer, and said with a smile, "You must eat this while it's hot! That's how you get the best flavor!"
"Really?" The woman smiled and handed the coin to the other person, saying, "I came here on my friend's recommendation. She said the food here is delicious and told me to come and try it! I'm going to see her today, so I came to buy some."
"Really?" Tian Yumei was overjoyed. She never expected that her products would become so famous, with customers even helping to promote them!
She stopped the other person with a smile, and before the lady could react, Tian Yumei deftly opened the packaging and tossed a piece inside with a smile.
"Here's an extra piece for you, have some with your friend, and thank her for helping me spread the word!"
The lady covered her mouth with a smile and repeatedly agreed to Tian Yumei's words. She hadn't expected to get an extra piece of money like this. She laughed and took small steps to find her friends to share what she had just experienced.
Qiu Tianlei and Tian Yumei are known for their good character and personality in the area, and many people find their snacks at their stall appealing, so they naturally buy from them.
Seeing how popular they were, Song Miqiu and Yu Huailin chose not to disturb them, but instead strode over to the stall across the street and sat down.
They asked the stall owner for two bowls of sweet water. As the stall owner handed them the bowls, he noticed that the two of them were staring at a couple not far away, and smiled as he started a conversation with them, "You also think they're a good couple, right?"
"how do I say this?"
Seeing that no one was coming to his stall for the time being, the stall owner started chatting with Song Miqiu and the others. He smiled and looked at Qiu Tianlei and Tian Yumei, the couple in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh.
“I don’t know how long I’ve been setting up a stall. When I saw them set up their stalls before, I saw that they were very hospitable. But it was my first time setting up a stall, and I didn’t know how to answer some of the difficult questions and inquiries from customers. So I went over to help them. They were very grateful to me and gave me some food.”
Thinking back to that time, the stall owner sighed deeply, because not many people would give back after helping others, and Qiu Tianlei and his wife were one of the few.
Given their personality, it's natural that many people would like to associate with them.
When another customer arrived, the stall owner stopped chatting with Song Miqiu and Yu Huailin and got up to greet the customer.
Song Miqiu picked up the sweet water, took a sip, and looked over at Qiu Tianlei and the others. She saw Qiu Tianlei wiping his dirty hands on his apron before taking out a clean handkerchief from his pocket and wiping away all the sweat from Tian Yumei's forehead.
Seeing this, Song Miqiu turned her head away with amusement, a slight smile playing on her lips, and exclaimed, "I've discovered the happiest life."
After finishing their sweet water, the two of them were too lazy to stay there any longer. Song Miqiu stood up and walked slowly in one direction, with Yu Huailin following behind her.
Thinking of what Song Miqiu had just said, Yu Huailin subconsciously asked, "You just said that you have discovered the happiest life. What is the happiest life in your eyes?"
Song Miqiu blinked, not expecting Yu Huailin to suddenly bring up this topic. She tilted her head and smiled at him, letting her hair fall messily over her body, her eyes shining with anticipation for the future.
"Just like Qiu Tianlei and Tian Yumei, they lived their lives as ordinary people in a very ordinary way. The two of them supported each other in life, set up a stall together, suffered together, and also shared the joy of making money together."
These things seemed wonderful to Song Miqiu, unlike her current state, where her mind was consumed by revenge, and she was caught up in the palace and a dangerous vortex.
Yu Huailin gradually lost his voice, just as Song Miqiu expressed her desire to live a simple life.
He raised his eyes and stared ahead. Yu Huailin pursed his lips, his eyes filled with very complex emotions.
He had no idea what would happen next, whether he would be able to take back everything that belonged to him, or something else entirely.
The future is full of unknown possibilities, and he doesn't dare to make any promises to Song Miqiu now, for fear that he won't be able to fulfill them.
Song Miqiu had been waiting for Yu Huailin to promise that they would be as loving as Qiu Tianlei and Tian Yumei in the future, but she waited a long time and never heard that word.
The expectation in her eyes gradually disappeared, and Song Miqiu lowered her eyes in disappointment.
Just as the atmosphere between the two of them was about to become tense, a carriage suddenly appeared in front of them.
Yu Huailin pulled Song Miqiu behind him first, thus preventing the carriage from rubbing against Song Miqiu.
He held Song Miqiu in his arms, looked down at her obedient appearance, and asked in a low voice, "Are you hurt?"
Song Miqiu blinked and gently shook her head. She peeked out from behind Yu Huailin's arm and saw a man getting off the carriage.
Song Miqiu always felt that the other person became very excited when their gaze fell on her.
She watched as the man walked up to her, and before Song Miqiu could ask anything, she saw him kneel down in front of her.
