Reborn in the 90s: Returning to the Day My Wife and Daughter Jumped into the River

Li Mu, once a dominant figure in the business world, reflects on his past actions towards his wife and daughter as he lies on his deathbed, filled with regret. If given another chance, he vows to c...

Chapter 13: Suspension of salary

Seeing Lin Wan like this, Li Mu raised his eyebrows, curved the corners of his mouth, and thought: "Hey, I am still very charming, hahahaha."

Unlike Li Mu's happiness, Lin Wan was a little flustered.

Lin Wan quickly fled into the room, her back pressed against the door. Her breathing became rapid and her chest kept rising and falling.

The image of Li Mu's naked upper body kept flashing through her mind. His well-defined muscles, even though his body was covered in wounds, made him look even more handsome.

The two of them are destined to be sleepless tonight.

Li Mu was sleepless all night because of what Lin Wan did to him. He tossed and turned all night and couldn't fall asleep.

Li Mu woke up early in the morning with dark circles under his eyes. He prepared meals for the mother and daughter as usual, and then went to buy eels with Zhou Qiang.

The eel business was still booming. As usual, it took the two of them only three hours to sell out all the eels. Many people even expressed regret and kept asking Li Mu and Zhou Qiang if they could bring more at a time.

Hearing what everyone said, Li Mu became more certain in his heart. When he had money, he would consider the entire eel breeding farm, and then slowly develop channels.

After selling the eels, the two men hurried home with their buckets, intending to take the Ganoderma lucidum that Li Mu had picked freshly yesterday to the county town to sell while it was still early.

On the way home, Zhou Qiang couldn't help but suggest: "Brother, the eel business is so good now, why don't we consider bringing more to sell?"

When Li Mu heard Zhou Qiang's question, he did not rush to answer, but kept thinking. He was originally thinking about the breeding farm, but there are actually very few places in the town that can be used for breeding eels. Basically, everyone uses them for breeding fish ponds. How should he get more eels? ? ?

Zhou Qiang looked at Li Mu's eyes and asked, "Brother, say something."

Li Mu turned his head to glance at Zhou Qiang and said, "Take more. How much? Now I sell four barrels a day, and some people can't buy them. I plan to supply them in limited quantities so that others will look forward to it and come to see it every day. By the way, it will attract some other customers. Do you understand?"

Hearing what Li Mu said, Zhou Qiang raised his thumb and said, "Great, brother, this is a great move."

"Don't brag. What we need to consider now is where we should find the supply if there are no more eels by the creek!" Li Mu said to Zhou Qiang with a serious face.

Eels have seasons, and they are active frequently only in spring and summer. Although Li Mu does not intend to make a lot of money by selling eels, this is the lowest cost option at present.

When Zhou Qiang heard this, he couldn't help but frown and was secretly worried.

The two of them walked to Li Mu's house in silence, and happened to meet Lin Wan and Ruoruo washing up at the door.

When Lin Wan saw Li Mu, her face turned slightly red. Yesterday, Lin Wan was lying in bed, thinking that she was not much better than Li Mu. Now she felt shy and embarrassed when she saw Li Mu.

When Li Mu saw Lin Wan and her daughter, he happily wanted to go forward, but Lin Wan dodged Li Mu's steps and walked into the house.

Li Mu stood there, somewhat stunned. I felt a little strange. Wasn't he fine yesterday? What happened today? ?

Zhou Qiang saw that the couple seemed to be having some conflicts, so he quickly hid in the kitchen, fearing that it would affect him...

In order to dispel his doubts, Li Mu quickly put down the bucket in his hand, washed his hands, and shouted to Zhou Qiang: "Wait for me, I have something to do."

Zhou Qiang nodded perfunctorily and said, "Then I'll go buy a pack of cigarettes first. I haven't smoked for a long time." After that, he walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative not far away.

If I could see Zhou Qiang walking from behind, I would want to run away.

Li Mu walked into the house and saw Lin Wan holding Ruoruo and doing handicrafts. He frowned and walked in front of Lin Wan, put the money he earned today on the table, then picked up his daughter and said, "Didn't I tell you not to do handicrafts? I can earn money now, and you've asked for leave from the cotton mill recently, right? Why don't you... apply for a leave of absence."

Lin Wan kept her head down, said nothing, and sewed the soles of her shoes silently.

Seeing Lin Wan like this, Li Mu felt helpless, but he didn't know what to say. He could only sigh and say, "Think about it carefully. Qiangzi and I will deal with the Ganoderma first. If Ruoru is not easy to take care of, Qiangzi and I will take her out for a checkup."

"No, leave Ruoruo at home, and you two can go." Hearing that Li Mu wanted to take Ruoruo out, Lin Wan hurriedly shouted.

"Okay." Li Mu couldn't stand Lin Wan, so he had to put Ruoruo down and take the Ganoderma lucidum wrapped in cloth that he had placed on the cabinet yesterday.

Just as Li Mu was about to take Lingzhi out, Lin Wan said calmly from behind him: "I will consider stopping your salary, but not for you, but for Ruoruo."

Hearing Lin Wan say this, Li Mu said happily: "I know, then you should think about it carefully."

Zhou Qiang bought a cigarette and was smoking it in small puffs. When he heard Li Mu coming out, he hurriedly threw the half-smoked cigarette on the ground and put it out with his foot. He walked forward and said, "Let's go now?"

Li Mu saw that Zhou Qiang had only smoked half of his cigarette, and when he saw Zhou Qiang coming out, he put it out and said with a smile: "Why don't you finish it? I'm not stopping you from smoking."

Zhou Qiang scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly: "I was afraid that you would carry Ruoruo out, so I thought about not smoking. It would be bad for the baby later."

Li Mu looked at Zhou Qiang with amusement. Although he usually didn't do his work, he was still very considerate.

"Let's go. It's very late now. Let's go to the county town to buy this thing first. If we come back early, I will take you into the mountains." Li Mu shook the Ganoderma lucidum in his arms and motioned Zhou Qiang to follow.

Zhou Qiang lowered his head and said nothing. He stood there and thought a little panickedly, "Are these young couple okay? Brother Mu will not get angry with me later. Woo woo, I am a little scared!!!"

Li Mu walked for a long time but didn't see Zhou Qiang catching up. Zhou Qiang was still standing there, with a frown on his face.

Gnashing his teeth, he shouted at Zhou Qiang: "Hurry up! Mani, just stand still and don't force me to do anything to you."

Hearing Li Mu's words, Zhou Qiang shuddered all over and hurried to catch up with Li Mu. When he was about half a meter away from Li Mu, he stopped and followed slowly behind Li Mu.

"What's wrong with you? I won't hit you. Why are you so far away from me!!!!" Li Mu stared at Zhou Qiang, holding back his temper, and said to Zhou Qiang with an unhappy face.

"No...no, brother, I've caught up with you, haven't I? Let's go, it will be very late if we come back." Zhou Qiang hurriedly quickened his pace and walked side by side with Li Mu, not forgetting to change the subject.

Li Mu rolled his eyes and thought to himself: "What's wrong with me? Am I so scary?"
