Chapter 137

He said so, and I had no choice but to agree with him. In my heart, I secretly thought that I must treat Trevin and Auntie to a big meal in the future.
Many buses passed by this construction site, and we quickly waited for a bus to the
village entrance.
As soon as I got on the bus, I saw a black luxury car driving towards. the construction site.
I couldn’t help but furrow my brows.
The luxury car looked familiar, Reynaldo seemed to have a car of the same model.
Seeing me staring at the luxury car, Trevin said to me, “Stop looking, that car is very expensive, it’s not something we ordinary people can afford. We have to face reality.”
“Um.” I nodded and smiled at him.
Trevin said again, “Nowadays, there are many materialistic girls, but let me tell you, they didn’t end up well in the end.”
My lips twitched, and he suddenly asked me, “What’s this for?”
Is it a roundabout way of reminding me not to be a materialistic woman?
I ignored all of this and just asked him, “What is the name of the boss who developed this construction site, do you know?”

“Alas, we, the lowest class people, had no knowledge of the name of the big boss.”
“Do you know what his last name was?”
“What’s your last name? We don’t have the qualification to know. Girl, listen to me, having money is good, but it’s not something we can dream of. Just live a down–to–earth life and find an honest person to marry in the future. Your days won’t be difficult.”
What is this all about?
Does Trevin really think that I was going to approach the boss of this construction site?
I just recognized that car very well, fearing that the big boss of this construction site was Reynaldo!
But it is unlikely that there were such coincidences.
It was just a car after all, considering there were more than just one car of the same model.
With this thought, I felt a slight relief in my heart.
As long as Reynaldo doesn’t come here, over time, he should also forget about my existence.
I gently stroked my flat belly, thinking about the existence of those two little babies, feeling warm and cozy inside.
When I arrived at Trevin’s house, Auntie had already prepared four dishes and a soup, placed on a short little table.

Trevin’s room was as simple as mine, but it looked quite tidy.
Trevin said that his mother slept in the bedroom and he slept in the living room.
I did see a makeshift bed in the living room, so it made the room look
much smaller.
Aunt warmly handed me a small stool to sit on.
I nodded quickly and handed her the fruits I bought on the way.
She glanced around and then furrowed her brows, as if a little unhappy.
I was stunned.
Could it be that the fruits I bought happened to be the ones Auntie particularly dislikes?
Just as I was thinking that, my aunt smiled at me and said, “Oh dear, you really don’t know how to manage a household. Look, you even bought cherries, they are so expensive.”
Uh!
Originally, she was concerned about the high cost of fruits and afraid that I would spend too much money.
However, when I bought fruits, I didn’t think too much about it. I just thought that for the first visit, I should always buy some decent ones to bring along.
Auntie said to me again, “This woman, she must understand how to be frugal and manage the household, especially after getting married. Otherwise, how would it look if the man works hard to earn money

outside, and the woman spends it so casually? You agree with what I’m saying, right, young lady?”
I awkwardly laughed and didn’t express any opinions.
Actually, I don’t quite agree with what my aunt said, and I don’t really like to hear it either.
But everyone has their own ideas, it’s best for me to remain silent.
Seeing that I remained silent, Trevin quickly rushed to his aunt and said, “Mom, Esmeralda finally agreed to come to our house for dinner. Why are you talking to her about these things?”
And she bought fruits as a kind gesture, how could you say that she is not thrifty!
Aunt glanced at me.
I laughed at her with a puzzled expression, feeling even more embarrassed in my heart.
Aunt suddenly changed her expression, with a smile on her face: “Yes, yes, yes… It’s just me being naggy and saying the wrong things, Esmeralda, please don’t take it to heart.”
“No,” I shook my head and said, “You and Trevin are both very nice. people, and I’m glad to have met you.”
