As the weather began to warm up, a line of food stalls appeared at the entrance of the residential building. They sold fried skewers, barbecue, and some elderly folks would push a gas cylinder with a shallow pot, selling spicy hotpot skewers.
Every evening after school, Zhao Meimei would stop by the food stalls on her way home and always buy a couple of skewers to eat while walking.
Liu Xiue thought it was unsanitary and scolded her several times, but to no avail. She had no choice but to start controlling Zhao Meimei's pocket money, leaving her just enough to buy some paper and pens at school, with nothing extra on hand.
At this time, the money Shi Yang left for Zhao Meimei came in handy.
Zhao Meimei was always generous with her friends. Although she was now busy with studies and didn't have time to hang out with Da Bao and other friends like before, the bond between them remained deep.
