Upon waking up, Lin Xiangyi realized she had transmigrated into a period novel written by her stepsister. Her stepsister was the protagonist, and she was the villainous female supporting character....
"Wait for me to come back." Xie Qingxiao stroked her messy hair and went forward to hug her.
"Okay, be careful on the road and take care of yourself." Lin Xiangyi reminded, "The child and I will wait for you at home."
Xie Guoqiang took Zhang Pengfei's luggage to the car, got out and saw the two couples saying goodbye affectionately, and said: "..."
No matter how reluctant they were, Xie Qingxiao and Zhang Pengfei also set off.
"Okay, now they're gone. We'll both have to stay alone in the empty room for a while. It's so lonely and cold!" Shen Xiaolan hugged Lin Xiangyi's arm and said playfully, deliberately dragging out her voice with a hint of exaggerated resentment in her tone.
"No, no, no." Lin Xiangyi refuted her, "You are alone in an empty house, but I am not. I have two sons to keep me company, and I live with my parents-in-law. I am not lonely at all!"
"..." Shen Xiaolan pouted in a reproachful manner, sighed, and became serious, "Actually, I also want a child a little bit..."
Lin Xiangyi was surprised: "Didn't you say you wanted to spend two more years alone together?"
"Yes, but the situation is special." Shen Xiaolan hinted.
Lin Xiangyi suddenly realized: "Because the business is getting bigger and bigger, the focus will be on Guang Province next, and Pengfei will have to travel frequently, so you want to have a child to accompany you? But what are you thinking?"
Lin Xiangyi poked her forehead in frustration and said, "Pengfei will be busy in the future. If you want a child now, he won't be able to take care of you. It will be very hard for you!"
Shen Xiaolan's head was about to be poked into a concussion, and she quickly said, "Okay, okay, I'll give up this idea immediately."
Lin Xiangyi then gave up.
Shen Xiaolan rubbed Lin Xiangyi flatteringly, and then said: "However, I heard from Pengfei that you plan to focus on Guang Province in the future. After it settles down there, you and Brother Xiao are likely to settle there?"
"I have this plan." Lin Xiangyi did not hide it. If they want to expand their business, they cannot live in Longjing Village forever. They have to go to big cities to have better resources.
As the frontier of reform and opening up, Guangdong Province is a good choice. Of course, they are not limited to Guangdong Province. There are also big cities such as Shanghai and Beijing to choose from. The specific choice depends on subsequent development.
Shen Xiaolan hesitated: "Then..."
Lin Xiangyi knew Shen Xiaolan's concerns, so she said, "Pengfei is our partner. Logically, he should follow us... But you also have your own plans. If you don't want to go with us, he can come back home and manage the business here. It depends on your choice."
Zhang Pengfei followed them to do business, but Shen Xiaolan did not. She had her own job in Xiangyang County, her home was also in Xiangyang County, her parents and relatives were all in Xiangyang County, so it was normal for her to have concerns and hesitations.
Lin Xiangyi patted Shen Xiaolan's hand gently: "You should discuss it with Pengfei."
"good!"
Lin Xiangyi had ridden her bicycle to the county town but did not ride it back, so she left it at Zhang Pengfei and Shen Xiaolan's house. She did not have to wait for Xie Guoqiang to come back and rode her bicycle back.
Halfway through, she met a strange man who was walking in a hurry with his head down, and inexplicably revealed a sense of guilt and panic.
Lin Xiangyi looked at him several times, and after passing him, she stopped, turned around and tentatively called out, "Brother?"
"Ah?" The weirdo turned around in panic and saw Lin Xiangyi. A hint of guilt flashed across his eyes, "Sister-in-law."
Thank you, brother.
Lin Xiangyi was a little surprised. All along, Brother Xie gave her the impression of being tall and thin. As a postman, he had to work every day regardless of rain or shine, so his skin was quite tanned, but overall he was still upright and gentle.
This was the first time she saw him looking so sloppy and dejected, with disheveled hair hanging on his shoulders, and wrinkled clothes that looked like they had been worn for who knows how many days. His eyes were evasive and he didn't dare to look at her, as if he was hiding a secret in his heart that he was afraid of being discovered by her.
"You..." Lin Xiangyi couldn't hide her surprise and said, "You went home to see your parents?"
"Ah?" Brother Xie seemed to be stunned by her question. After he came to his senses, he quickly replied, "Yes."
Lin Xiangyi felt more and more strange. Big Brother Xie looks like he’s having a hard time. He went back to see his parents, but they kicked him out again?
That's about it.
Lin Xiangyi didn't want to interfere in their affairs, so he said, "Brother, if you have any difficulties, just tell me, there will always be a solution."
Brother Xie was stunned. He seemed not to have expected Lin Xiangyi to say that. After all, Sun Lanjun had always been targeting Lin Xiangyi... He looked even more guilty, and nodded quickly, "Okay, then... If there's nothing else, I'll go back, sister-in-law. I have something else to do. You, you should go back too."
After saying this, without waiting for Lin Xiangyi's response, he walked away in a disorderly manner.
Lin Xiangyi: “…” It’s even weirder.
It was not until she returned home that Lin Xiangyi realized why Brother Xie was so weird.
She rode her bike back home and saw a little girl peeking at their door from afar. When she got closer, she found out that the little girl was Xiao Ni.
"Xiao Ni? Why are you here?"
But Xiao Ni turned around and ran away like a frightened bird.
Lin Xiangyi couldn't stop her, so she could only go home first. Seeing Xie's mother and the others happily in the main room, she asked curiously, "Mom, why is Xiaoni out here alone?"
"Xiao Ni is outside?" Mother Xie looked as if Lin Xiangyi had said something strange. "Xiao Ni is not outside?"
"I just saw her wandering outside, and she ran away when she saw me coming back."
