Li Laosan absolutely refused, even though there was another unexpected incident this time, it was better than the last one.
Last time, they didn't even serve the tea properly, but this time they gave a red envelope, so they've accepted it personally and Jiang Zuoque can't deny it.
"Leader Jiang, my Fuyi has already kowtowed to you and accepted the red envelope. The marriage is officially off. What's wrong with her calling you godfather?"
If the occasion hadn't been inappropriate, Jiang Zuoque would have wanted to kowtow to Li Fuyi in return.
A few heads are nothing, can they be more important than life?
Recalling what he had heard on his way here, Jiang Zuoque was now absolutely certain that Li Fuyi was not suitable for becoming a godparent; doing so would only bring him bad luck.
"Jiang Yi, Jiang Er, go and get the red envelope back."
Without turning his head, Jiang Zuoque didn't even glance at Li Laosan and Li Fuyi.
"Okay, boss."
They're experts at robbing people—or rather, getting their money back—and once they get it back, the money is theirs.
Is there such a thing as getting a red envelope back after it's been given out?
[Mom, Jiang Zuoque is so stingy!]
What is Li Fuyi hoping to gain by recognizing godparents?
What's the point?
Li Laoda and Jiang Yuting didn't want to expose Li Yiyi.
Without their daughter's interference, Li Fuyi's reunion with her relatives would have been a breeze. But after having a daughter, every little thing becomes complicated.
It was truly a delightful and satisfying family reunion.
"No...no, if this red envelope is given to me, it's mine."
Li Fuyi refused to take the red envelope back.
She was even thinking of using the money from the red envelope to go to the hospital to see if the black mark could be cured.
"Don't touch my daughter."
Li Laosan was also unwilling to take the money, but his idea differed from Li Fuyi's. He wanted to use the money in the red envelope to arrange a marriage between Li Jiamin and the Li family head.
Having gone to the far Northwest and not been able to attend school, Li Jiamin and the head of the Li family are finding it difficult to arrange marriages. Without money, they won't even be able to find wives.
[Red Envelope Frenzy.]
Li Yi stared intently, wanting to see who would receive the red envelope.
"Alright."
Li Fumin intervened; if he hadn't been in their production team, he wouldn't have even bothered with it.
"Li Laosan, didn't you ever consider that Li Fuyi is completely unsuitable for family reunification?"
Li Fumin was too embarrassed to speak bluntly, but behind him stood Aunt Hua's gossip group; no one spoke more directly than them.
"Li Laosan, please let them go. Look at this, they've caused such a big trouble just by recognizing a relative."
"What does this have to do with my daughter?"
Li Laosan retorted, unwilling to give up, while Aunt Hua walked up the mountain with her hands on her hips.
"Why don't you turn it off? Li Laosan, if you don't have eyes, you can go find a pair of mice to install on them so you can see your daughter at night. It's a talent to have such dark eyes. And you say it's none of your business? How can you be so shameless?"
“Tell me yourself, which of your daughter’s two attempts to reunite with her family was successful? The first time she farted, and the second time there was thunder. These are all hints from God. God is saying that your daughter is not suitable for reunion.”
Even God disapproves, they will stand with God.
"Li Laosan, Aunt Hua is right, your daughter is really a bit strange. Please, have mercy on her and let her go!"
Li Fumin would never say anything that carried out outdated ideas; with Jiang Zuoqiu, an outsider, present, he would even have to help clarify things.
Otherwise, what if the chamber pot accidentally falls down?
"Don't talk nonsense. What God? That's a wrong idea."
"Captain, you're right."
Aunt Hua knows when to yield and when to stand firm; she herself realizes she said the wrong thing.
"Li Laosan, family reunions are based on mutual consent. As long as this comrade agrees, I have nothing to say."
The point of speaking up is this: he offered advice, and what happens after that is no longer his concern.
Taking a few steps back, Li Fumin had no intention of getting involved in the rest of the commotion.
[Dad, it turns out Uncle Fumin only looks foolish; he's actually quite shrewd.]
If anything really happens, once he's reminded, it's no longer his problem.
[My main point is that I've done what I was supposed to do.]
Li Laoda glanced sideways at his daughter, then stared listlessly ahead.
His daughter has a really long reaction time.
No one is truly stupid. Can someone who becomes a brigade leader be a fool?
It was only because he and Li Fumin had a good relationship, and Li Fumin was unwilling to play tricks, that his daughter thought Li Fumin was stupid.
It wasn't until today that he realized this; he had never seen such a long reaction time before, especially from his own daughter.
My dear daughter, I hope that if you're ever sold into slavery, you won't help the seller count the money.
My requirements aren't high, really not high.
With her attention focused on what lay ahead, Li Yiyi was unaware of her boss's simple and earnest wishes.
"I'm not willing. Li Laosan, you'd better be sensible and return the money."
A cold, sharp voice rang out, and Jiang Zuoqiu finally became somewhat presentable.
Li Laosan was stunned for a moment, and in that instant, Jiang Yi and Jiang Er succeeded.
Having received the money, Jiang immediately opened the package, glanced at it, and promptly put it back in her bag.
"Boss, I've got the red envelope back."
They stood respectfully behind Jiang Zuoque, neither Jiang Yi nor Jiang Er mentioning money. Good heavens, they'd finally managed to recoup some of their losses!
They must be crazy to give it to Jiang Zuoqiu.
Overwhelmed with anger, Jiang Zuoque forced himself to suppress it.
"Li Laosan, let's leave it at that. We can't talk about the family reunion anymore. We'll discuss the rest later."
Those two words gave Li Laosan hope.
The fact that there's more to it indicates that the connection between Jiang Zuoque and the others hasn't been severed yet.
"Okay, Leader Jiang."
As if he hadn't been the one who objected just moments before, Li Laosan was incredibly obedient.
