"Mother," Su Yan said helplessly, "I'm not blaming you for offering discounts, but I'm worried that you're working too hard selling like this. Look how busy you are! Four or five people can't keep up. You can't earn all the money in the world."

Li Juan: "It's alright, we can still manage. I've given everyone a raise."

Su Yu was sweating profusely from his work, but he was in a great mood.

The shop's business is so good, which proves that his family is living a really good life. The only thing that makes him unhappy is that his mother told him that this good life only started a month ago, and the source of this good life is his sister.

Su Yan knew she couldn't persuade her, so she could only say, "There won't be any discounts the day after tomorrow. Selling 500 jin a day for the next two days is enough. That's all. It's too tiring, understand?"

“No need, Ah Yan. I’m at home and can help a lot. I won’t let Mom get tired,” Su Yu quickly replied.

Su Yan glared at him, annoyed. "You haven't even recovered your own health yet, what are you busy with?"

Seeing that the brother and sister were about to start arguing, Li Juan quickly interrupted, "Alright, this good price won't be available in a couple of days. I'm just happy because there won't be such a big event for customers after this. After these two days are over, I'll make sure your brother gets a good rest, okay?"

Su Yan: What good would it do if I said it wouldn't work?

But with the extra pay, Li Yongcheng and his colleagues were happy to keep busy; they were more afraid of not having any business.

Not wanting to spoil everyone's fun, she had no choice but to compromise, "Alright, you guys go ahead with your work. I'm going to Lanzhou to visit Uncle Tang's wife. Just letting you know, I won't be having lunch."

“Then you have to come back tonight.” Li Juan said seriously, “This afternoon I’m taking your brother back to Lijiapin. First, the house in the village is finished, and we’re going to have a housewarming party. We’ll set up a few tables in the village. Your grandparents have already bought all the furniture, so it’s ready to live in. Second, your brother is coming back, and we’ll celebrate together.”

Su Yan nodded immediately, "I understand, Mother. Brother, I'm leaving now. Remember to eat."

She certainly couldn't miss such a joyous occasion.

"Wait a minute!" Li Juan called out to her, "Ask Caixia and Manager Tang if they're coming."

Su Yan responded and then ran out.

She just saw Tang Li and Feng Caixia's car parked outside.

Upon seeing the two cars, she hesitated for a moment before getting into Tang Li's.

"Let's go, Uncle Tang."

Tang Li started the car, saying, "Your business is so good that other shops are jealous."

The customers at the braised food shop were lining up outside, which shows how booming the business was.

Su Yan recounted her mother's glorious deeds, then said with a headache, "She wouldn't listen. My brother is the same; he always has to join in the fun."

"Let them be busy if they want to be. They'll stop and rest when they get tired."

Su Yan's braised food shop is doing so well, how could it not attract jealousy from other shop owners? The fact that things have remained peaceful until now is because he has managed things well from all sides, and Huo Qianli's family has also helped. Of course, no one will want to cause trouble, and those who are envious or jealous can do nothing about it.

"Then why don't you buy my family's braised food? Don't you like it?" Su Yan said deliberately.

Tang Li said, "...Your mother has Cheng Pao deliver two family photos to my office every day."

Therefore, he is a VIP and does not need to buy anything.

Su Yan: "..."

That's quite in line with her mother's style.

Tang Li alone sent so many; Huo Qianli's family probably received even more.

To maintain feelings and relationships, gifts don't need to be expensive; the thought is what counts.

...

Two hours later.

Lanzhou People's Hospital.

Feng Caixia bought some fruit at a fruit shop near the hospital entrance before following the two men.

Su Yan said, "My family is having a housewarming party in the village tonight. Are you coming?"

"I can't go, the shop gets busy during mealtimes." Feng Caixia said apologetically, "Please tell your mother I'm sorry."

"If I really apologize, my mother will beat me."

Tang Li also said, "I'm leaving tomorrow, so I won't go back to Anping Town today. I'll spend more time with my wife and leave directly from here tomorrow."

Su Yan was dumbfounded, looking at the two of them in disbelief, "Are you asking me to go back alone?"

Feng Caixia hooked her arm around her shoulder and laughed, "What are you afraid of? It's not like you don't know the way. If you get lost, your Uncle Tang and I will find our way back."

Su Yan: "..." Fine, she's just a poor little thing who's used and then thrown away, sob sob sob...

As they were talking, they arrived at Fang Yajun's ward.

Tang Li pushed the door open and went in.

Su Yan and Feng Caixia followed behind.

In the ward, besides Fang Yajun, there was another person Su Yan didn't really want to see.

Fang Yajun, who was on the bed, smiled with delight upon seeing them, but upon seeing the people who came in behind her, she asked in confusion, "Ali, who are these two?"

"This is Su Yan, who prepared the medicinal meal for you, and next to her is Feng Caixia, the manager of Yunxiang Restaurant."

Feng Caixia placed the fruit on the bedside table and said, "Hello, Mrs. Tang. It's a pleasure to meet you. This is a small token of our appreciation from Su Yan and me."

She bought five or six kinds of fruit, all of which were quite expensive, each weighing about a pound. This gift was not insignificant.

Fang Yajun thanked her and then said, "It's enough that you came; there's no need to bring a gift. You're too kind!"

“I wouldn’t dare come in without bringing something,” Feng Caixia said. “How is Madam Tang’s health?”

"You can just call me Ya Jun." After saying that, Fang Ya Jun shifted her gaze to Su Yan and said, "Thanks to Miss Su's medicinal diet, my child's condition has stabilized a bit after I ate it. I've been wanting to thank you in person for a while, and today I finally have the opportunity."

Before Su Yan could speak, the girl next to Fang Yajun suddenly said sarcastically, "Who knows if she has bad intentions? Sister, you're too naive! What if she holds a grudge against me because I'm your sister and poisons the medicinal food? If it doesn't act up now, who knows if it will later?!"

"Fang Guimei, watch your words!" Tang Li stared at her intently.

Fang Yajun's face paled slightly, and she slapped her younger sister angrily, "Guimei, how can you talk like that? Miss Su is my benefactor. If you keep spouting nonsense, your brother-in-law will really get angry!"

Fang Guimei was most afraid of Tang Li getting angry, but she didn't want to lose face in front of Su Yan, so she retorted with her neck stiff, "How am I talking nonsense? You know she seduced your brother-in-law before, who knows if she approached us to hurt the baby in your belly! Your brother-in-law was transferred to Guangzhou for her now, they've been having an affair for a long time, sister, you're just too stupid!"

"Smack!"

Before Fang Guimei could finish speaking, a heavy slap landed on her face, making her spin around in place.

The person who did it was Tang Li.

Su Yan was stunned for a moment when she saw this, then lowered her hand that she had just raised and stood aside with a stern face.

Fang Guimei covered her face, staring wide-eyed at Tang Li, whose expression was already contorted with rage, and said angrily, "Brother-in-law, you actually hit me? Sister! Look how much this vixen has bewitched your brother-in-law! He even hit me in front of you, where does that leave your dignity?"
