When Manager Li finished accompanying his leader and was about to go to the kitchen to find the two people, he saw Master Feng and Li Mu standing at the entrance of the alley smoking.

He walked up to her with a smile and said, "Xiao Li, you brought the sea bass today, right?"

Li Mu threw the finished cigarette on the ground and put it out.

He looked up at Manager Li and said, "Yes, I recently opened a fish pond at home, so I'll bring some for you to try."

Hearing Li Mu's answer, Manager Li smiled meaningfully and said:

"Don't lie to me, kid. Tell me how much is a pound of sea bass. If the price is right, we can sign a contract and you will deliver fresh ones to us every day."

Li Mu scratched his head, feeling a little guilty for some reason, but he quickly reacted and said, "My sea bass is cheap, but the production volume is not high yet. However, we can still afford it if the restaurant demands it."

"How about this, I'll charge you five dollars per pound. If you think it's appropriate, we can sign the contract today, and I'll arrange for someone to deliver the goods to you tomorrow."

After hearing what Li Mu said, Manager Li laughed a little out of anger. It was obvious that this guy came prepared.

So without hesitation, he said directly: "Then let's order ten kilograms first, and don't sign the contract for the time being. I'll try selling it first. If it feels right, then we'll sign the contract formally, okay?"

...

...

Li Mu thought about it and felt that what Manager Li said was right, so he agreed without hesitation.

After chatting for a while, Li Mu and Brother Shen set off back to town. As soon as they arrived in town, Li Mu couldn't wait to share the good news with Zhou Qiang.

When Zhou Qiang heard that Li Mu had already negotiated two business deals, he felt itchy and kept suggesting that he wanted to go back to the village and raise fish.

However, Li Mu took into consideration that Zhou Lifang had refused, and advised Zhou Qiang to focus on getting the store ready before talking about it.

Zhou Qiang finally gave up and didn't mention it again. After Li Mu asked Zhou Qiang to come to his house for dinner in the evening, he went to the supply and marketing cooperative to tell Wu Min the good news.

Wu Min was also very happy. After all, her hard work for so long was slowly beginning to pay off, and the pressure in her heart was also dissipated a lot.

Li Mu happily took the money he received and returned home, only to see the mother and daughter sitting closely together in the chairs.

My heart skipped a beat, and I hurried forward and asked:

"What's the matter? Why are you all sitting in the yard? Ruoruo, why don't you go play with your toys?"

As he was talking, he saw Lin Wan's slightly red eyes, and asked in panic, "What's wrong, Xiao Wan, why are your eyes red from crying?"

When Lin Wan heard Li Mu's voice, tears began to fall uncontrollably. She choked and said:

"Li Mu, my dad is here. My dad...my dad...said he wants us to get a divorce..."

Li Mu thought of his father-in-law's serious face and felt a little scared. Before he and Lin Wan got married, Lin's father was not optimistic about him.

Li Mu had been strongly against the two of them being together, and if he met Lin's father again now, he would still feel a little timid.

But when Li Mu heard his wife say that his father-in-law wanted them to divorce, he would never agree. He would definitely try to get his father-in-law's consent.

Thinking of this, Li Mu comforted Lin Wan and said:

"Wan Wan, don't worry, I will definitely get Dad to agree that we can be together, trust me, okay?"

Looking at Li Mu's serious expression, Lin Wan nodded hesitantly, but she still thought in her heart that no matter what happened, she would not leave Li Mu.

In order to prevent Lin Wan from being immersed in sadness, Li Mu told Lin Wan about the state-owned hotel business he had negotiated today.

He took out the money he had just earned from his pocket and handed it to Lin Wan.

This time, Lin Wan burst out laughing. Looking at the money in her hand, she felt relieved.

Li Mu coaxed Lin Wan at home for a long time. After Lin Wan's mood completely improved, Li Mu walked alone to the hotel where his father-in-law was staying.

I originally wanted to ask the room number at the front desk, but I thought the front desk would not reveal it, so I just waited downstairs.

Father Lin was half lying on the bed, thinking about his daughter's problem. The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became. He thought it would be better to talk to Li Mu directly, give him some money, and let him leave Wanwan.

Thinking of this, he took out a cigarette from his trouser pocket, walked to the window and lit it.

Just as Lin Xiaocheng was staring at the bustling crowd outside the window in a daze, he saw Li Mu constantly peeking downstairs.

I sneered in my heart: "I haven't looked for you yet, but you came to me. It's just right. I must have a good talk with you and let you let Wan go."

Lin Xiaocheng put the cigarette in the ashtray, put on his coat and went out.

Li Mu, who was originally sitting by the flower bed in a daze, saw a tall man with a serious look walking out of the guesthouse.

His eyebrows jumped, and he shouted in his heart: "Hard work pays off, my father-in-law has finally arrived, the one I've been waiting for."

Li Mu was about to shout when Lin Xiaocheng pointed at him and said, "Li Mu, come with me."

After hearing what Lin's father said, Li Mu obediently followed Lin Xiaocheng and found a place to sit down and have tea.

As soon as he sat down, Lin Xiaocheng said straight to the point: "Li Mu, you should divorce Wan Wan!"

Li Mu frowned and refused: "Dad, I will not divorce Wan Wan. What I did before was wrong, but now I have changed. Believe me!"

Lin Xiaocheng waved his hand and said, "Don't say those empty words to me. I only have one request for you now, let Wanwan go and divorce Wanwan."

"Look at what Wanwan looks like now. She has become so thin. Do you have the heart to hold her back?"

Li Mu thought of Lin Wan's thin face and felt guilty, but Lin Wan had gained a lot of weight compared to when he first came back. She was frighteningly thin before.

I feel so thin that I would run away if the wind blew.

"Dad, no matter what you say, I won't leave Wanwan. Wanwan can't leave me now. I can promise you that I will definitely make Wanwan happy."

Hearing what Li Mu said, Lin Xiaocheng felt annoyed. This was also what Li Mu promised when he wanted to marry Lin Wan.

But is it useful? It's useless. Not only did he not treat Wanwan well, he also bullied Wanwan. When he was drunk, he was like a different person and would go crazy at any time.

Lin Xiaocheng, who was originally a little hesitant, became even more determined to take Lin Wan home when he met Li Mu.

"Dad, I know I told you these things before, and I didn't do them, but I can promise you that I will treat her well this time."

"It hurts to hold Xiaowan in my hands."

Li Mu made this assurance to Lin Xiaocheng seriously, but Lin Xiaocheng just turned his head away and didn't want to pay attention to Li Mu's chattering.

Seeing that the conversation was not going to produce any results, Lin Xiaocheng took out some money, put it on the table, then stood up and left.

Li Mu was left alone, still sitting in his seat without moving.
