Double Life: My whole world is you

Chapter 472: Cheng Ma's Concern

"I thought the minimum was above 90 points." He replied with a pout.

"You've made great progress. Keep it up." Cheng Qiao handed him the test paper. "Look at it carefully. Ask me if you don't understand."

As soon as Wu Qi left, Huang Yiqian came over with a math workbook and said, "Cheng Qiao, help me with this math problem."

Cheng Qiao looked at the math problem and nodded, "Look, this place..."

During the third evening self-study class, since the teacher was not there, she helped Huang Yiqian and Cao Chang to solve the questions for most of the class. After they left, Cheng Qiao felt dry in the mouth and took the glass bottle to drink all the water in it. Looking at the time, there were only ten minutes left before school was over. She took a deep breath again, picked up the pen and began to study the question that Zhang Yandi had written for her.

Fortunately, she understood it by the time school was over. But at this time, Wu Qi picked up the test paper and wanted to ask Cheng Qiao for help, but was stopped by his deskmate, "What don't you understand? I'll explain it to you."

Cheng Qiao gave him a grateful look. But at this time Feng Yanran came over with a physics exercise book, and Cheng Qiao had no choice but to close the exercise book and help her with the physics questions.

It was not until twenty minutes later that Cheng Qiao and Zhang Yandi finished their speeches, and at that time there were only four of them left in the class.

"Hurry up, hurry up." Cheng Qiao stood up and stretched, "Yanran went home alone."

"It's okay, my dad is here to pick me up." Feng Yanran said with a smile.

When the four of them came out, there was indeed a black car on the side of the road. The people inside did not get out. Feng Yanran smiled and waved to everyone before leaving.

After the two separated from Wu Qi, Zhang Yandi asked softly, "Qiao, are you worried about the school anniversary activities?"

"This matter is a bit worrying, but we can put it aside for now." Cheng Qiao sighed, "Alas, Xiaomeng has not come to evening self-study for two consecutive days. She has been acting abnormally these days, and we are busy and have not paid attention to her."

"She might be upset because of the test results. You should have a good talk with her. It shouldn't be a problem." Zhang Yandi advised.

Cheng Qiao nodded, "I hope so!"

"Auntie Wang, if you have any problem and can't solve it yourself, please be sure to talk to me." Zhang Yandi said to her softly before the two of them entered the door.

Cheng Qiao looked at him in surprise, and he made a gesture to her to keep quiet. They looked at each other, went back to their own homes, and closed the door.

When Cheng Qiao arrived home, Cheng's mother was still sitting in the room knitting shoes in silence. When she saw Cheng Qiao turn around, she just looked up and smiled at her, "There's hot water in the bucket, go wash up first."

After washing up, Cheng Qiao didn't plan to do her homework today. She lay down next to Cheng's mother and said coquettishly, "Mom, I won't knit shoes anymore. Just talk to me."

"Aren't you going to do your homework today?" Cheng's mother asked after putting away the wool in her hands.

"I just want to accompany my mother today." Cheng Qiao leaned her head in Cheng Ma's arms.

Cheng's mother gently stroked her hair and said softly, "You work so hard every day, and you've lost weight again."

"No way! Mom makes so many delicious foods every day, I feel like I've gained weight." The two looked at each other and smiled.

The two were silent for a few minutes, and finally Cheng Qiao stopped playing dumb and asked directly, "Mom, has anything happened to you recently?"

Cheng's mother looked at her, sighed and said nothing.

"Mom, no matter what happens, we will face it together." Cheng Qiao sat up straight and looked at her and said, "Believe me, I am stronger and braver than you think!"

"It's all mom's fault for being useless." Cheng's mother said and started crying.

Cheng Qiao found out what was going on while Cheng's mother was crying intermittently. It turned out that Cheng's mother broke an antique vase while cleaning a house for an employer. The employer wanted them to pay compensation, saying that they spent 200,000 yuan to buy it. This price scared Cheng's mother. She couldn't even take out 20,000 yuan, let alone 200,000 yuan!

This incident happened a week ago. Finally, the cleaning company that Cheng's mother worked for mediated and asked a third-party appraisal company to appraise the value of the vase, and then compensated according to the appraisal price. Cheng's mother said that those people said it would not be less than 100,000.

Even if it was 100,000, they couldn't afford it now. Cheng's mother only made 800 yuan a month, less than 10,000 yuan a year. She would have to work for more than ten years to pay back the money for this vase. Would the employer be willing to wait for ten years?

Cheng Qiao didn't say anything after listening to this. She gritted her teeth and frowned. After more than ten minutes, she said, "Mom, since this matter has happened, we have to solve it. First, do you have a record of the vase from the employer's house? We don't trust the appraisal company they hired. Second, the company that hired you to work for the employer has to bear the cost, and you can't bear this cost alone."

"I was careful and kept two pieces." She quickly stood up, took out two pieces from her bag and handed them to Cheng Qiao.

Cheng Qiao carefully examined it for a long time, but she couldn't tell anything since she had no knowledge of this field. She still had to take it for appraisal to know how much it was worth.

Seeing Cheng Qiao shaking her head, Cheng's mother asked anxiously, "What should we do if we don't have any acquaintances in this field? And the appraisal costs money. They said the appraisal fee would be several thousand yuan."

"Mom, don't worry. I'll ask Wu Qi tomorrow to see if he knows anyone in this area." Cheng Qiao comforted her and coaxed her to sleep. But she couldn't fall asleep for a long time. She was still too weak at this time, and their family was the same. They couldn't withstand any storms. After all, the cost of trial and error for ordinary people is too high.

It took her a long time to fall asleep last night, and she was not very energetic when she woke up the next day. But she got up normally, but she took Cheng's mother's mobile phone away, "Mom, let me use your phone for the next two days."

"Okay, you take it." Cheng's mother did not refuse. But there was always a trace of sadness in her eyes. Cheng Qiao hugged Cheng's mother before leaving, "Mom, don't worry, I'll take care of everything."

Zhang Yandi waited for Cheng Qiao at the stairs. After they left the community, Zhang Yandi asked, "Qiao, what happened?"

Cheng Qiao briefly recounted Cheng's mother's story. Zhang Yandi nodded and comforted her, "Qiao, don't worry, this is not a big deal. My father happens to have an acquaintance in this area, I'll call him now."

After he finished speaking, he took out his cell phone to call Zhang's father. When they arrived at Zhenghe Home, Zhang Yandi also finished his call. He made an OK gesture to Cheng Qiao, who breathed a sigh of relief. He smiled and greeted Wu Qi who had arrived.

It was just that after leaving Zhenghe Home, she kept calling Ma Xiaomeng, but she didn’t answer even after several calls, so Cheng Qiao said to the two of them when they arrived at the gate of Xinghua, “You go to school first, I’ll go find Xiaomeng.”

"I'll go with you!" Wu Qi said quickly.

Cheng Qiao shook her head, "No need."

Wu Qi wanted to say something, but Zhang Yandi pulled him towards the school.

Cheng Qiao glanced at the two of them and ran in the opposite direction...
