Chapter 162 Li Xiucai, let me tell you
Gu Hanjun's face changed slightly. As the son of Ningguo Marquis, he certainly would not eat for free.
But……
Seeing that he remained silent, Li Jiaojiao frowned: "Why don't you say something!"
Gu Han endured for so long, and finally exploded: "Even so, you can't let me do such a lowly job! You can't treat me like a slave."
Li Jiaojiao's face darkened: "So what do you want?"
Gu Hanjun's face was tense: "..."
"Humph!" Li Jiaojiao sneered, "I just want to ask you, is your last name Li? Are you my family member?"
"I rescued you from the street! Go to the street and ask who is willing to take a beggar home. And treat his illness and support him!"
"I have always protected you and treated you like a guest. I never asked you to do any work. Now grandma is making trouble for us. If you don't work, our family will break up!"
"What's the matter? I saved you, but you still have to be the boss in my house? I asked you to do something, but you're giving me a cold shoulder?"
Gu Hanjun's face turned pale: "I, I will repay you."
"How can you repay me? You have no money and no ability, how can you repay me?"
Gu Han was struck by lightning. Yes, he had no money and no ability now...
He had always considered himself the son of the Ningguo Marquis, but he was no longer one...
Now, he is just a lost dog.
"Okay, if you really don't want to do this, then leave my house." Li Jiaojiao snatched the basin of clothes from his hand angrily:
"You don't have to pay back the medical expenses. Since I, Li Jiaojiao, saved you, I never thought of asking for your repayment. Go now!"
Gu Han's expression changed: "Jiaojiao, I..."
"So? I saved you, but I still have to be responsible for you for the rest of your life? I still have to support you for the rest of your life? Our Li family doesn't have the spare money to support someone!"
Gu Han's face turned pale and blue, and only then did he realize his situation clearly.
Suddenly I remembered my former servant.
Some of them led the horses, some ran errands for him, and some ground ink for him...all of them had jobs. Even the Marquis's Mansion would not spend money to support idle people.
What’s more, the Li family has no spare money.
To the Li family...he is really just a freeloader!
Only if he works is he worth staying, otherwise why should people keep him for free?
"I'm sorry, Jiaojiao...I didn't think it through..." Gu Han whispered.
Li Jiaojiao snorted, but the corners of her lips curled up slightly: "Gu Han, I hope you can stay at my house. Stay with us forever."
Gu Han's heart was shocked and he looked at her blankly.
He is nothing now, but a "rotten beggar" with a lame leg.
But she didn't think he was a burden and still accepted him and cherished him.
He had never seen such kindness in his life.
If he had only good feelings and gratitude towards her before, now he was deeply impressed by her personal charm.
Li Jiaojiao took in the admiration in his eyes, stuffed the basin of clothes in her hand into his arms, spun around, and hopped away like an elf.
She knew that Gu Han liked her, but he was a cripple with no future, so she would not marry him.
But this did not prevent her from enjoying the feeling of conquest when someone fell at her feet.
In the future, she will marry a nobleman, and Gu Han, just like her former father, will always protect her!
If anything happens to her, he will be her solid support.
Well, that's a bit off topic.
At least he is now willing to be a servant in her family, and the risk of her and her mother having to do housework is eliminated!
…
After being scolded by Li Jiaojiao, Gu Han's mentality changed.
No more complaints about doing laundry.
Li Jiaojiao was squatting beside him, watching him wash, and occasionally teasing him with dogtail grass.
He didn't laugh, but she giggled happily.
Gu Han couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips. This kind of leisurely life was actually quite happy. There is a feeling of husband singing and wife following.
After washing the clothes, they returned home.
We also hung clothes together in the yard.
Mrs. Li was lying in a rocking chair eating melon seeds.
Li Zhiyuan was reading in the study. He glanced out the window and was delighted to see that his home had returned to its former peace and happiness.
But he didn't know that his mood would immediately become unhappy.
"Hey, is Mr. Li at home? Let me tell you!" A cackle sounded, and Mrs. Zhao walked in twisting her body.
Li Zhiyuan's eyebrows jumped and he walked out: "I don't know you, go away."
"Why don't you learn your lesson?" Mrs. Zhao was stunned. "Didn't I tell you last time? I'm your ex-wife's neighbor!"
"So what's the matter?" Zhang Shuiniang, who was taking a nap, also came out and stood beside Li Zhiyuan, trying hard to maintain a noble and dignified smile on her face.
"Li Xiucai, let me tell you, Caiping's workshop is really amazing. The first time, they hired 25 people. At that time, everyone said that the workshop could not continue, but unexpectedly, they sold 3,000 kilograms of ingredients a few days ago. They also cooperated with Baiweilou."
"Do you know Baiweilou? It's the largest restaurant in our town. There are two in the city! I heard there are branches all over Dazhou. They all want goods from Caiping."
"Now the workshop has hired 15 more people. My son and grandson are working there! They can earn about one or two yuan a month!"
He said this with a look of pride.
Li Zhiyuan's entire family looked at him in amazement.
Li Zhiyuan's face turned pale and blue: "What are you doing here?"
"Are you deaf? Didn't I just tell you? Caiping's workshop is amazing! It hired a lot of people and made a lot of money! That's what I wanted to tell you!"
Li Zhiyuan naturally understood, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.
Zhang Shuiniang and Li Jiaojiao were so angry that they gritted their teeth. How could this be possible!
How could Ye Caiping, a divorced woman, run a workshop?
How could Ye Caiping accomplish something that even Zhang Shuiniang couldn't do?
Not to mention her, Zhang Shuiniang, even her family...
No, it's impossible. There must be something fishy going on...
"I guess Caiping can earn at least one or two hundred taels a month, otherwise she can't support so many of us, right?" Mrs. Zhao felt proud of it. Looking at Li Zhiyuan's expression that looked like he had eaten shit, she felt very pleased.
"You are not welcome here, please leave!" Li Zhiyuan gritted his teeth.
"Why?" Mrs. Zhao looked like she didn't understand.
Li Zhiyuan choked.
"Why don't you welcome me?"
Li Zhiyuan cursed his mother in his heart, but he couldn't say that he couldn't bear to see his ex-wife living a good life, right? Doesn't this show that he is narrow-minded?
"You can't stand Caiping, right?" Mrs. Zhao looked at him seriously.
Li Zhiyuan almost vomited blood: "How could I be that kind of stingy person! Of course not!"
