So, the news reached Li Aihua's ears through Xiaolin's wife?
"Brother, let me be honest with you. I've got my eye on this business and I want a piece of the pie. You give goods to everyone else, so you can't be stingy with us, your own siblings."
His eyes darted around, and his words seemed insincere.
"Dad, Li Aihua is lying."
Just think about how Li Aihua looks when she talks about money. Every time, her eyes light up, and she practically wants to stuff the money out of other people's pockets.
Look at her now, she doesn't seem ambitious at all, and she even seems afraid that you won't agree to her proposal.
"Dad, it seems we can stop our vegetable business."
It's a pity that with one less way to make money, Li Yiyi's face lost a little of its sparkle, like a wilted flower.
Li Laoda stroked Li Yiyi's head, knowing in his heart that it was time to stop.
"Li Aihua, if you keep talking nonsense, I'll throw you out. Are you jealous of my comfortable life and trying to frame me?"
The fleeting moment of guilt was clearly seen by Boss Li.
"Brother, I didn't, I just wanted to earn..."
"Slap!" A slap landed across the face. Boss Li had no habit of not hitting female comrades.
Aside from Jiang Yuting and Li Yiyi, everyone else was the same to him; there was only the distinction between family and outsiders. Li Aihua was considered an outsider.
[Daddy, Daddy, Daddy, use a stick! Look, your hands are all red from hitting them.]
How thick-skinned does Li Aihua have?
[Dad, the pain is in your hands, but the wound is in my heart. Please take good care of yourself.]
The long-lost cheesy pickup lines resurfaced, and Boss Li's expression was somewhat subtle, but mostly one of emotion, because a stick appeared behind him.
"Li Aihua, if you want to die, just say so. Why beat around the bush? Come here and I'll grant your wish."
He grabbed a stick and charged. Li Aihua, still reeling from the slap, instinctively ran away.
"Big brother, I won't, I won't dare to do it again, I won't interfere anymore."
Running and begging for mercy, Li Aihua hated herself for being blinded by greed. How could she have forgotten that Boss Li wasn't someone she could fool?
No, that's too little. She'll ask for more money next time.
If they really wanted to chase her, how could they not catch up? Boss Li was just putting on a show for the meat processing plant workers. Once Li Aihua left the plant, Boss Li stopped chasing her.
Sigh~
"Brother Li, this is ours now."
The gatekeeper, Xiao Lin, said with a smile, a hint of embarrassment on his face, "I let Li Aihua in."
"It's nothing."
Looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, Old Li felt a pang of sadness.
[Dad, stop pretending. You're going too far.]
Why are you acting so much lately? Is it because I've been teaching you well?
Remembering how she imitated Boss Li, Li Yiyi's eyes lit up, and she looked at Boss Li with the eyes of a mentor.
"Dad, no, you can't compare to even a fraction of my charm."
[Your head needs to be tilted a little higher; your eyes aren't melancholic enough, and the angle isn't right. Kobayashi can't see your perfect jawline at all.]
[Dad, you should be like me. Look at my sharp, chiseled lines; I can slice through exam papers when I'm writing.]
The more he talked, the more outrageous it became, not to mention Li Yiyi's personal demonstration.
Can you imagine a chubby baby showing you what a jawline looks like, squinting halfway through his eyes in a melancholic manner?
Unable to bear watching, Boss Li simply ignored it.
"Xiao Lin, don't let anyone in from now on. Don't let anyone in using my name."
"Brother Li, has something happened?"
It was rare to see Boss Li so serious, so Xiao Lin asked a question.
"Well, we can't do the vegetables anymore."
Before Xiaolin could react, Boss Li suddenly moved closer.
"Xiaolin, how can there be such a heartless sister in the world? She can't stand to see me doing well and she said she's going to report me."
He left in sorrow, even his retreating figure conveying the pain of being hurt. His face was filled with indescribable dejection, a stark contrast to his lively and energetic demeanor just moments before.
When someone curiously approached and asked, Boss Li told the truth: he was quitting the business because he was afraid his younger sister would report him.
report! ! !
So there was a reason why Boss Li was so angry and chased after them with a stick. They would have done the same.
No, there's no need to change it. They'll follow up even if they know what it's about.
Reporting Boss Li would cut off their livelihood. Who let Li Aihua in? At the same time, Xiao Lin at the door, still reeling from the loss of business, sneezed several times from the sudden surge of resentment.
If he had known that Li Aihua had come in because of this, he would never have let her go, even if it meant death.
[Dad, perfect! You've solved a major hidden danger in one fell swoop.]
Without Li Aihua's encouragement, Li Laoda and Li Yiyi would have had to stop their vegetable business sooner or later.
With so many people getting involved, sooner or later there will be corrupt elements. With so many people and so many eyes, they might suffer at any time.
Unable to find a proper reason, they continued to do it as best they could. Now that they had a legitimate reason, Boss Li and Li Yiyi went with the flow.
I also went to inform Lao Zhang and Lao Liu, and only then was the matter considered closed, though the reasons given were different.
When confronted with Lao Zhang and Lao Liu, Boss Li said he wouldn't do business with them anymore, but if they still wanted fruit, he was willing to risk taking it.
The word "adventure" is quite evocative.
Who wants to trouble others and owe favors unless absolutely necessary?
Both Lao Zhang and Lao Liu expressed their understanding; it was normal for Li Laoda to be afraid to do it after being threatened by his own sister, it was just a pity.
However, one should be content. Following Boss Li, the two of them have earned quite a bit in the past few months, much more than outside. One takes the low-end route with a large distribution network, while the other takes the high-end route with only two people. It is obvious which one brings in more profits.
[Dad, what will we rely on to get rich in the future?]
With two sources of income cut off at once, Li Yiyi was heartbroken.
My money flew away so fast, it was gone in an instant.
[Father, Mother...]
Overwhelmed with grief, Li Yiyi sang a song to vent her anger, but it was Li Laoda who suffered the most.
It was awful, truly awful, worse than a crow's cawing. There was no chance to interrupt him on the way; Li Laoda practically ran the entire way home.
The wind ruffled the tuft of hair on Li Yiyi's head, making her even cuter.
Li Laoda was completely disheveled, from initially struggling to adapt and quickening his pace, to now having a sorrowful look in his eyes and staggering steps.
After much thought, Li Laoda still couldn't figure it out. Although he and Jiang Yuting weren't particularly talented in the arts, they weren't exactly like their daughter.
When they talk, their daughter is their angel baby.
When they sing, their daughter is their little devil.
When they reached the intersection near the production team, the beautiful singing finally stopped, and Old Li gradually regained his usual composure.
"Boss, you're here. Let's go quickly, I heard something happened to your family."
Something happened.
At the same time, Li Laoda and Li Yiyi became invigorated, and Li Laoer took action.
"Aunt Hua, what happened to my family? I just got back and I don't know yet."
Aunt Hua looked Li up and down, and then expressed her understanding.
"I heard that Li Lao Er reported Li Lao San. The people in red armbands have already gone there, and we are just about to go and take a look."
