"That's Uncle Zheng. He's a friend of my mom's, but he's not doing so well right now. My mom asked me to look after him, but he doesn't appreciate it."
Speaking of which, Wang Shumin felt extremely frustrated. Every time her mom sent her something, she would remind her of this, but the man wouldn't even give her the time of day. Besides, she couldn't just keep running over to the cowsheds to see him. If someone saw her, who knows what they would say about her.
It was a classic case of getting the cold shoulder for her kindness.
Xue Yue and Xue Xingzhou exchanged a glance, both feeling a little suspicious of Li Wanqing's motives.
Seeing them stay silent, Wang Shumin asked quizzically, "What's wrong? Did I say something I shouldn't have?"
Xue Yue shook her head. "It's nothing. Do you know why he was sent here?"
Wang Shumin thought for a moment. "I think he was reported by someone. I heard Uncle Zheng spent time abroad before, but I'm not too clear on the details."
