Hearing Li Mingxi's voice, Li Aidang was surprised for a moment, then he walked to the kitchen and spoke.

"Is it Xiaoxi? Where is your grandma? Where did she go when she's not at home?"

Seeing the food in his second uncle's hand, Li Mingxi quickly took out the bowls and chopsticks from the cupboard.

"Grandma and Mrs. Li from next door are walking behind us. I guess they will be home soon!"

Li Aidang walked into the kitchen with the food and saw the things in the cupboard. He spoke in confusion.

"Your grandma has already finished cooking, so why is she still going out?"

Li Mingxi didn't want to say it at first, but seeing that his second uncle was staring at him, he told him that he came back late!

Li Aidang nodded without saying anything, and then thought about the application that Gu Jiahe submitted in the morning. Thinking that his niece also went to the textile factory, he just asked.

"By the way, Xiaoxi, didn't you go to the textile factory to recruit people this morning? Did you notice anything unusual?"

Li Mingxi blinked and glanced at her second uncle, knowing that truth would eventually come out. So, she spoke directly and frankly, "Second uncle, to be honest, the person who got into trouble today happened to be my good friend!"

Hearing Li Mingxi's words, Li Aidang was first cheered up, then his eyes narrowed unconsciously.

He couldn't believe it was such a coincidence. He had just received the secret letter, and someone around him had an accident. It was hard to say whether there was any connection between the two!

Could it be that someone in the organization is watching me, and this incident is just a warning to me?

But who was staring at him? For a moment, Li Aidang couldn't figure out who was staring at him.

Li Mingxi watched from the side. His second uncle just stood there blankly without blinking. He knew what he was thinking.

Therefore, no one dared to interrupt him. After a while, Li Aidang reacted on his own.

Li Mingxi spoke with concern.

"Uncle, what's going on? You were just standing there in a daze. Did something happen?"

Li Aidang felt that there was no need to let his niece know these things, so he spoke directly as if nothing had happened.

"It's okay, I was just thinking about the content of this afternoon's meeting!"

Since the second uncle said so, even though Li Mingxi was curious, she didn't say anything more, but she was thinking about it unconsciously in her heart.

After I just talked about Dong Sisi's matter, my second uncle fell into deep thought. Could it be that Dong Sisi's matter has something to do with him?

Thinking this way, Li Mingxi vaguely felt that this matter should not be that simple. After all, as a director, Second Uncle had so many things to deal with, and the interests involved were not something that an ordinary person like her could control!

Just then, Niu Cuihua's voice came from outside.

"Okay, okay, I'll go inside first. Thank you so much today!"

Then she walked into the yard, and before entering the house, she started asking.

"Xiao Xi, the meal is ready, right? Okay, let's eat quickly. I've walked such a long way and I'm starving!"

Then, she looked up and saw Li Aidang standing in the kitchen. She spoke with a calm expression.

"Second brother, are you done with your work?"

Li Aidang nodded, "Mom!"

"Alright, alright, stop talking and eat quickly. Xiaoxi and I have to leave right after dinner. Otherwise, we won't know what time it will be when we get home!"

Li Aidang opened his mouth and was about to speak when Niu Cuihua blocked his mouth again.

"Okay, okay, stop talking and eat quickly. Oh, and I made some steamed buns for you. If you and your wife are hungry when you get home, you can heat them up!"

"I'm telling you, even though you're young now, you still have to take care of your health. You can't be indifferent just because you're young now. Otherwise, when you're older, you'll suffer!"

Listening to his mother's nagging, Li Aidang didn't feel annoyed at all. On the contrary, he felt very satisfied. Therefore, Li Mingxi saw his second uncle reply to his grandmother with a smile on his face, "Okay, okay, I understand, mother!"

Seeing him like that, Niu Cuihua couldn't help but mutter, "What's the point of just knowing? Don't promise me something and then turn a deaf ear to everything I say!"

Li Aidang said with a smile, "No, Mom, I'm just busy!"

When Niu Cuihua heard him say this, she glared at him fiercely.

Li Aidang pretended not to notice the dissatisfaction in my mother's eyes.

He just glanced at Li Mingxi beside him and made a suggestion.

"Mom, how about this? Since we're not busy at home right now, why don't you stay here for a few days and let your son take good care of you?"

Niu Cuihua couldn't stand it this morning alone, so when she heard Li Aidang's proposal, she quickly refused.

"Get lost! I don't live in the county town. What's so good about living here? If I want to eat something, I have to spend money to buy it. Why am I so depressed that I have to live here?"

Li Aidang looked embarrassed. "Mom, I haven't been filial to you properly for all these years. Why don't you stay in the county for a while and let me be filial to you properly?"

Upon hearing this, Niu Cuihua started cursing.

"Li Aidang, what are you planning? You want me to serve you, right? I think you want me to serve you. You're dreaming!"

"Why, can you help me go home and work?"

Li Aidang interrupted, "Don't you have your younger brother and sister-in-law at home?"

Niu Cuihua ignored him and turned to Li Mingxi, "Xiaoxi, eat quickly. After dinner, let's go home. I don't want to come to this place anymore!"

When Li Aidang heard this, he knew that he had made his mother angry, so he spoke quickly.

"Mom, I'm sorry, I said the wrong thing just now, please don't be angry!"

Niu Cuihua snorted coldly, "I don't know what sin I've committed to have a son like you. It's one thing to not be able to enjoy your blessings in my old age, but you still want me, your wife at such an old age, to take care of you!"

Li Aidang felt that he was really wronged. When did he ever think like this? He really wanted his mother to come to the county town to enjoy a good life!

Therefore, he hurriedly began to defend himself.

"Mom, you misunderstood me. I don't have that idea. I just want you to come to the county town and live for a few days, so you can experience the life of a city dweller. Really!"

Li Mingxi watched from the side and felt that his second uncle was so anxious that he was about to explode!

However, grandma didn't seem to have any intention of letting him go and spoke directly.

"I don't care what you think. After we eat this meal, we're leaving!"

Li Aidang sighed silently when he saw that he couldn't coax his mother.
