Then, Qin Huairu took out fifty cents from her pocket and handed it to the master. Seeing this, the master quickly took off his worn and cracked gloves and stretched out his rough hands to take the money.

His face was full of smiles, and he kept saying: "Congratulations, this is such a great event for your family! I wish you a brighter and better life in the future!" After saying these auspicious words, the master put on his gloves contentedly, pulled the cart and slowly left.

Jia Zhang was seen stroking her brand new 14-inch TV with a big smile on her face. She raised her head high and shouted to the neighbors in a proud and lively manner: "Look at this TV in our house, it's a full 14 inches! It's not like some people's TVs, which only have a pitiful 12 inches. With such a small screen, I would not even bother to take a look at it even if it was given to me for free! Why? It's because the size is too small. I can't see clearly what's on it with my eyes!"

At this moment, a loud sneer suddenly came from the outside of the crowd. Everyone turned their heads and saw that it was Sha Zhu who was standing there holding his young son. Sha Zhu said rudely, "Hey, Jia Zhang, don't flatter yourself! In my opinion, the reason why you think other people's TVs are too small and can't be seen clearly is purely because you are too old and your eyelids are drooping. It's impossible for you to see clearly!"

Being laughed at in public by Sha Zhu, Jia Zhang was immediately furious. With her eyes wide open, she pointed at Sha Zhu's nose and cursed, "Sha Zhu, you are so disrespectful! How dare you talk to your elders like this? Do you have any manners?"

However, Sha Zhu didn't care at all. Instead, he lifted his son up in his arms and retorted with a look of disdain: "Hey! Don't use your status as an elder to put pressure on me. Everyone knows what you are thinking. It's just that your family bought a new TV, and you are showing off here?" After saying that, Sha Zhu deliberately shook his head at Jia Zhangshi, and his look was so irritating.

"Also, think about it, who can know where that TV set in his family came from? Tell me, everyone, is this true? Qin Huairu is just a second-level employee in our factory, with a monthly salary of only 27 yuan. But now her family actually bought a big TV set worth hundreds of yuan at once, and even a TV ticket! You all know that TV tickets are not something that anyone can get. Generally, only the leaders of the factory or those who have made major contributions can get them. So, who can guarantee that the origin of his TV set is clean? In my opinion, even if it is given to me for free, I don’t want it, I’m afraid of dirtying my eyes!" After saying this with a look of disdain, Sha Zhu deliberately spat on the ground.

When Qin Huairu heard Sha Zhu slander her like this, her eyes suddenly turned red and tears rolled in her eyes. She cried out in a wronged voice: "Sha Zhu, what do you mean? I have always been a decent woman and lived an honest life. How can you say such hurtful words! Do you really want to drive me to death?"

Qin Huairu's crying obviously made everyone present feel that it was a bit too much. Everyone gathered around to comfort Qin Huairu, and at the same time, they couldn't help but blame Sha Zhu for speaking too much. Someone whispered to Qin Huairu: "Sister Qin, don't bother with him. It's not worth getting angry and hurting your body for such a person." Someone turned to Sha Zhu and scolded him: "Zhu Zi, why are you so careless with your mouth today? You can say anything. Apologize to Sister Qin!" For a moment, the scene became a bit chaotic.

Lin Ying didn't want her man to be labeled as someone who forced someone to death, so she stepped forward anxiously and explained, "Sister Qin, I'm so sorry! It's all my husband's fault. He's a straightforward person who says whatever he wants without thinking. Please be magnanimous and don't bother with him."

After saying this, Lin Ying still had a faint smile on her face, but she continued, "Actually, this is just a little doubt in my husband's heart. Most people in our courtyard are also very curious about this matter. Everyone is wondering, where did you get this precious TV ticket, Sister Qin? Why can't ordinary people like us even get such a good bargain?"

Lin Ying's seemingly friendly and soft-spoken words were like a soft knife that stabbed Qin Huairu's heart directly. Qin Huairu, who had originally successfully avoided Sha Zhu's questioning, was once again caught in the embarrassing situation of having to work hard to prove the legitimacy of the source of the TV ticket.

At this moment, Qin Huairu cursed the couple in her heart, wondering why they had to keep harping on this matter. She had just easily brushed off Sha Zhu's words, but who would have thought that Lin Ying would bring up the old matter again. If she couldn't explain the reasonable reason for obtaining the TV ticket clearly and clearly, it wouldn't take long for everyone in the yard to know that the TV ticket was not right.

So, in just a few seconds, Qin Huairu's brain started working rapidly, thinking quickly about how to deal with it...

Then, Qin Huairu smiled and quickly took over Lin Ying's words, saying with a sweet laugh: "My TV ticket! It's a long story."

"Since it's a long story, just focus on the key points and make it short!" Seeing this, Yan Jiecheng on the side hurriedly put his hands into his sleeves and shouted at the top of his voice.

Hearing Yan Jiecheng's urging, Qin Huairu was startled, and countless thoughts flashed through her mind. But soon, she regained her smile and whispered: "This TV ticket was actually something I got by chance on the roadside. I remember that day, it was icy and snowy outside, and the road was particularly slippery and difficult to walk on. At that time, I was about to go out to buy coal, and I saw an old lady accidentally fall on the roadside. The old lady fell hard and couldn't get up for a long time. I have always been kind and couldn't bear to see others suffer, so I quickly stepped forward to help her up, and helped her find a cart to escort her all the way to the hospital. Later, in order to thank me for saving her life, the old lady not only gave me an extremely precious TV ticket, but also gave me several hundred yuan extra. It was with this unexpected fortune that I was able to buy this TV."

After Qin Huairu finished telling this story, everyone present showed an expression of complete belief. However, in fact, whether they believed this story in their hearts or not, only they themselves knew it.

At this time, Lin Ying, who had been listening quietly, said calmly: "Oh, so that's how it is. It seems that Sister Qin, your kindness really pays off."

Lin Ying thought, Qin Huairu was so embarrassed to say this, she really didn't even think before telling a lie.

It was freezing and snowy, and yet an old lady was still running around outside, carrying hundreds of dollars, TV shows and plane tickets. She really thought we were fools.
