However, she did not come here to scam people on purpose, because she had no choice. Her husband owed a lot of money, and if she did not make more money, her family would really be left with nothing.

Just when Li Lanhua was speechless, Ma Fengcheng said again: "Since you are scared, we will not pursue the matter. Please leave now."

Ma Fengcheng's attitude made Li Lanhua feel relieved. She glanced at Bai Wei, bit her lip, turned around and left, but after taking just two steps, she retreated back.

"What else do you want to do?"

Chi Kunli looked at Li Lanhua warily, fearing that she would do something to hurt Xiang Baiwei.

"I see you are dressed quite decently. My husband owes a lot of money outside, and my two daughters haven't had enough food for several days. I really didn't come here to extort money on purpose. I really have no other choice..."

Li Lanhua said, kneeling on the ground, "Please, give me some money, at least let me get something to eat for the children."

She suddenly knelt down, shocking everyone present. Ma Fengcheng quickly helped her up and said, "Get up first."

But Li Lanhua refused to get up and cried, "As long as you are willing to give me some money and feed my children, I would be happy to die for you, not to mention working like a slave for you."

Seeing Li Lanhua being so humble for her child, Xiang Baiwei suddenly felt sad.

She once again thought of the child with whom she was not destined to have in her previous life.

Perhaps out of sympathy or overflowing maternal love, she finally took out a hundred yuan and stuffed it into Li Lanhua's hand, "Take this money, but this is not a long-term solution. For the future of the children, you need to earn an income through your own labor. As for your husband, you should have a good talk with him."

When Chi Kunli heard this, she looked at Xiang Baiwei with disbelief.

Li Lanhua was even more surprised. She stood there in a daze, looking up at Xiang Baiwei, tears streaming down her face. "Thank you."

Xiang Baiwei sighed softly, waved his hand, indicating that she shouldn't take it too seriously, then took Chi Kunli and turned away.

Ma Fengcheng didn't know what to say, so he followed them back to the workshop.

Looking at their departing backs, Li Lanhua's expression was complicated, but she did not show any malice or resentment.

She silently put the hundred yuan that Xiang Baiwei gave her into her pocket, then wiped her tears and walked quickly towards home.

After they walked away, the crowd watching on the side began to talk about it.

"Isn't this Xiang Baiwei from the fruit workshop? She is so kind!"

"As expected, people who do good deeds will be rewarded. Look, their business is so big that they are about to open a factory..."

"Tsk tsk, there are not many good people like this nowadays. If I were a man, I would definitely marry a woman like this and bring her home."

On the other side, Chi Kunli looked at Xiang Baiwei with some concern, and asked cautiously: "Weiwei, do you sympathize with this Li Lanhua?"

Xiang Baiwei smiled and shook her head, "I just feel sorry for her. Although her husband is not very responsible, she has two daughters to take care of after all. In this era, it is really not easy for a weak woman."

Chi Kunli frowned: "This era? You said that as if you have experienced other eras."

Xiang Baiwei didn't intend to explain anything, but just smiled faintly.

The three of them then returned to the fruit workshop, and Xiang Baiwei went to the backyard workshop to instruct the workers.

Chi Kunli was busy greeting customers in the front yard.

Just now, when Chi Kunli was protecting Xiang Baiwei and quarreling with Li Lanhua, he felt that this woman was particularly charming.

More attractive than those hypocritical intellectuals.

After Chi Kunli finished her work, she found Ma Fengcheng standing at the door and immediately smiled: "Teacher Ma, is there anything else? I thought you had already returned to school."

"Oh, I don't have much to do at school recently. If there's anything I can help you with in the workshop, just let me know."

Hearing this, Chi Kunli quickly shook her head: "No need, Teacher Ma, you are a teacher, school matters are more important."

Her refusal made Ma Fengcheng a little disappointed.

"Okay, I understand. I'll go back to school first."

After saying that, Ma Fengcheng rode away on his bicycle.

Looking at his receding back, Chi Kunli couldn't help laughing, and then continued to work.

However, ever since this incident, Ma Feng has been thinking about something every day and slowly began to make his presence felt in front of Chi Kunli.

Chi Kunli was able to enter the workshop because of Xiang Baiwei's relationship. She was afraid that others would gossip about her, so she was busy for a long time every day and did not dare to delay her work, so she ignored Ma Fengcheng.

But Ma Fengcheng didn't mind. He still found opportunities to appear in front of Chi Kunli every day, occasionally gave her some snacks, and even provided help when Chi Kunli was busy.

Chi Kunli did not doubt this, but instead thought he was a helpful man.

In the end, Wang Chunhua, who had come to the workshop several times to deliver things, noticed that there was something wrong with the way Ma Fengcheng looked at Chi Kunli.

She secretly observed several times and felt more and more that her guess was correct, so she found an opportunity to tell Xiang Baiwei about it.

"Weiwei, have you noticed that Mr. Ma, who comes here often recently, always looks at Lili with strange eyes. Do you think he likes Lili?"

Xiang Baiwei was drinking tea from a cup and almost spit out tea when she heard what Wang Chunhua said.

"Cough cough cough"

Wang Chunhua patted Xiang Baiwei's back anxiously, "My silly girl, why are you so impatient? You choked yourself when drinking water. Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, I'm fine."

It took Xiang Baiwei a long time to calm down.

She looked at Wang Chunhua in disbelief, "Mom, how can you tell that Teacher Ma likes Lili? Besides, this Ma Fengcheng has always said that he often comes to the workshop to help because he was asked by Jiang Sui. Don't make blind guesses."

Listening to Xiang Baiwei's words, Wang Chunhua said, "Huh, what do you know? Would your mother be wrong? Besides, isn't there a saying in big cities that men should get married when they are old enough and women should get married when they are old enough? I think that Teacher Ma has fallen in love with our Lili, but he just doesn't have the courage to say it out loud."

Wang Chunhua said, looking like an experienced person, "But don't worry, I will help Lili check it carefully."

Xiang Baiwei rolled her eyes helplessly, "Mom, what are you worrying about?"
