Chapter 055: So white, I want to eat

That night, Su Lianyi made the excuse that she was not feeling well and did not want to go back, so she stayed in the hotel... and stayed like that for the next two days.

It was not until noon on the third day that Su Lianyi finally recovered and returned home.

The spacious and luxurious house was purchased by her, but the plaque on the door read "Li's House". Su Lianyi was full of self-mockery, and she restrained all her emotions and entered the yard.

Mother-in-law Li Wanhua was being served canned food by the servants. It was hard to find a can outside, but the Li family could enjoy it at will, and they could also give it to relatives and friends as a gift to the servants to save face. These days, old lady Li was very proud of this.

When she saw Su Lianyi, Li Wanhua was rarely angry because she had not returned for a few days. Instead, she showed concern for her.

"If you're not feeling well, take some rest. Have you seen a doctor?"

Such abnormality further confirmed Su Lianyi and Shen Ning's guess: everyone in the Li family knew what was going on with her.

In other words, they were all involved in the poisoning!

Suppressing the anger in her heart, Su Lianyi lowered her eyes and said, "Thank you for your concern, mother. I'm fine. The doctor said it's just from being too tired and worried that my lungs are deficient."

Li Wanhua's eyes flashed slightly, but she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

The prescription was indeed correct, and an ordinary doctor could not find anything unusual.

Su Lianyi didn't leave. She sat directly next to Li Wanhua and forced herself to show the same subtle flattery as before: "Last time, mother suggested that you let your uncle join Zimiji. I've been thinking about it these days, and it's actually a good idea."

She lowered her eyes and said, "We all need to make money, so why not let our family make it?"

Ever since she knew that Mi Ji was making a lot of money, Li Wanhua suggested several times that her brothers should invest in the company in order to get a piece of the pie, but was rejected by Su Lianyi.

Plus, she had rejected Li Qingqing's request for a huge dowry last time... So, they finally couldn't hold back and wanted to poison her to steal the family property?

Su Lianyi's parents died early, and she was raised by her maternal grandfather. After her grandfather passed away, she had no other relatives except her uncle's family, that is, her cousin Duan Qizhen's family.

For this reason, she treated Li Ziyuan's home as her own home and Li Ziyuan's family as her own family. She bought a mansion and hung the Li family plaque on the door. The mother-in-law also had a key to the private vault in the house.

She believed that she had no second thoughts towards their family, but she never imagined that from the very beginning, the Li family was aiming to wipe out the entire family.

Across from her, upon hearing Su Lianyi finally give in, Li Wanhua beamed, "It's great that you can figure it out. I, the wife of the Li family, must know the big picture."

Su Lianyi suppressed the hatred and anger in her heart, pretending to be weak and coughing a few times: "It's just that if I want to give the share to my uncle, I'm afraid that Manager Shen will not agree. I have to find a way to buy the share from her first."

Li Wanhua was a little anxious: "Then hurry up. I heard that your honey shop is making a fortune every day. If we are late, we will earn less money."

Su Lianyi nodded: "Indeed, I've sorted out the household accounts these past few days and used the money I could to buy the shares... Mother, please ask my uncle when he can collect enough money."

Li Wanhua's eyes flickered slightly, and then she smiled and said, "We're all family, so why are you worried about missing out on our money? You can pay for it first, and mother will definitely ask your uncle for the money later."

Su Lianyi sneered inwardly, but put on a hesitant and helpless look on her face: "Well, well then... I'll try to find a way to raise the money first."

Li Wanhua smiled and patted her hands: "Go ahead, mother believes in you."

Su Lianyi stood up, and the moment she walked out the door, her eyes suddenly turned cold...

On the second day, Li Ziyuan got the news from his mother that Su Lianyi was going to compete with Shen Ning for the market share. He was a little surprised and decided to go to the store to take a look.

He always felt that the two of them had a good relationship and didn't seem like they would easily fall out.

Chen Ning and Su Lianyi were discussing the purchase of dried flowers in the store.

The canning business has seasonal requirements, and it cannot be done after the fruits are out of season. Chen Ning has other plans. These days, taking advantage of the season, he has asked people to purchase dried flower petals, beeswax and other things.

It doesn't matter what kind of flower it is, as long as the petals are dried.

The two were talking about where to store the petals when they saw Yuan Yue come in and whispered respectfully, "Miss, Li Ziyuan is here."

"good."

Chen Ning and Su Lianyi exchanged glances and smiled. The next moment, Su Lianyi suddenly raised her voice and said, "We agreed at the beginning that as long as I could come up with the money, the share would be transferred to me. Now, Manager Chen, are you going to go back on your word?"

Li Ziyuan heard the quarrel inside before he even entered the room, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

It’s true, Su Lianyi is indeed trying to grab market share.

As long as they can grab it, those shares will belong to the Li family.

He walked in quickly and pretended to be anxious and confused: "Why are you two arguing? Just talk it out nicely."

Chen Ning snorted coldly: "I said that the share can be transferred to you, but I can't wait for you indefinitely. There are only five days... If you can't raise enough money after five days, there are still many people who want those shares. If you sell them to others then you can't blame me."

Su Lianyi sneered: "Five days is five days, just don't regret it when the time comes. If you do, the county government office is not just for show."

Li Ziyuan repeatedly advised, "It's not that serious. If you have something to say, just talk it over nicely. Don't get angry."

"There's nothing to say to her."

Su Lianyi snorted, flicked her sleeves and walked out. Li Ziyuan hurriedly bowed to Chen Ning, and quickly chased after her, wanting to support his wife. He didn't even care when Su Lianyi pushed him away.

Li Ziyuan only thought that Su Lianyi was furious, and never considered that she thought he was dirty...

On the second day, Su Lianyi sent a message to Shen Ning: the plan worked, and she began to sort out the accounts and dig out the money that had been given to the Li family.

The Li family wanted Su Lianyi to grab the share of Mi Ji to make wedding clothes for themselves, so when Su Lianyi sorted out the accounts and sold the farm properties that were given to the Li family, they did not stop her at all, and did not even doubt it.

After all, Su Lianyi had never calculated these things for more than three years, and now Su Lianyi has been poisoned.

No matter what they snatch, it will belong to the Li family in the future!

Shen Ning breathed a sigh of relief and also felt relieved for Su Lianyi. After tearing up the note, she continued to wipe her hair, which was not yet dry after bathing, with a soft cloth.

At this moment, she suddenly realized something and turned around subconsciously, and saw the shadow of a huge flying bird disappearing into the sky on the top of the tree outside the yard.

Is that bird too big?

The golden eagle, who was almost exposed because of his greed, returned to a military camp of the Xinzhou Army a moment later and went to Xiao Nanchen's tent without making a sound.

He folded his wings and walked over. Xiao Nanchen was reading a secret letter without even looking up. "Everything is normal?"

"Coo."

Yes.

Xiao Nanchen threw a piece of beef jerky over, but the usually greedy Golden Eagle seemed a little uninterested. He was a little surprised: "What delicious food have you set your eyes on now?"

The golden eagle immediately said: "Gugugugugu."

So white, lamb...I want to eat it!

Xiao Nanchen could understand many of the expressions of the golden eagle he raised, especially those that it often mentioned.

Lamb? White?

Xiao Nanchen frowned. Wasn't it supposed to stare at Chen Ning?

The next moment, Xiao Nanchen suddenly realized something, his face darkened, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Get lost."

The golden eagle slipped out of the tent with a wronged look on its face, and flew into a dark and deserted place, flapping its wings and taking off...
