Chapter 44 Old Man Li's Plans, Li Yiyi Adds Another Blow



Li Laoda and Jiang Yuting: ......

My daughter has reached the pinnacle of understanding how to interpret her name.

He's the director of the lumber mill, not some nobody, but a big shot they can't possibly see. However, my daughter is right about one thing.

Wang Shuai is no match for Shen He.

"The lumber mill...director."

Old Man Li was shocked by the sudden news.

"Yes, old comrade, your son Fubao is a good comrade. He knows how to help others at such a young age. If it weren't for him, I might not be safe yesterday."

Wang Shuai liked Li Fuyi the moment he saw her.

"Director Wang, you flatter me. This is all Fu Bao's good fortune."

Old Li's wrinkled face broke into a smile. He felt that God was blessing their family. He was still worrying about Li Laosi's job when Li Fuyi rescued him and brought him a director position.

This is a godsend; the worries in the elderly couple's hearts can finally be resolved.

Grandma Li smiled kindly at Li Fuyi, showing her already slight favoritism towards her, and displaying it fully in front of Wang Shuai.

Li Laosan and Wang Yiting were overjoyed. Last night, when Wang Shuai woke up, he said he would repay their family. How could he repay them? Besides giving them a job, what else could he give them?

Li Fuyi looked at Li Yiyi smugly, completely unconcerned whether Li Yiyi could understand her expression.

The meal was a delight for both the guests and the guests. Old Man Li and his companions went out of their way to please everyone, Old Man Li kept trying to chime in and show his face, and Li Fuyi would occasionally act cute. The atmosphere was wonderful.

As soon as Wang Shuai left, Old Man Li immediately gathered everyone together.

"Third brother, what did Director Wang say?"

"Grandpa, Uncle Wang said he'd give us a job."

"Work!"

Although Old Man Li had already guessed, he couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, and a look of joy flashed in Old Man Li's eyes.

As for work, who's the most suitable person for this family? Of course, it's him.

"Dad, do you think they might fight over a job?"

Look at Li Laosi, he's so eager, his eyes are full of determination, as if he's already got the job.

"Dad, do you think their expressions will be priceless if Uncle Shen finds you a job?"

【father...】

Li Laoda stuffed a piece of maltose into Li Yiyi's little mouth. He couldn't stand Li Yiyi's incessant chatter anymore.

So sweet.

"Dad, this is murder! What if the candy sticks to my teeth and they fall off?!"

Next, Li Yi focused all her attention on the candy, ending the noisy moment.

"Yes, Father."

Li Laosan couldn't hide the smile on his face; he was now a worker, the first worker in the Li family, and the first worker in the production team.

He glanced at Boss Li secretly, and seeing that the other party remained unmoved,

Li Laosan scoffed, secretly feeling incredibly bitter. He was jealous of Li Laoda, who received all of his grandparents' love and possessions, unlike him, who, despite being liked by Li Laotou and Li Laotai...

But since there are many children, they receive less. Now that they are ahead of Li Laoda, they have finally found an outlet for their years of resentment.

"Third brother, what else did Director Wang say?"

Old Man Li stared intently at Li Laosan, as if trying to uncover something.

"Father didn't say anything."

Li Laosan tried hard to recall, then slapped his forehead.

"Dad, Director Wang also said that he especially likes Fu Bao, and that he has a son at home who is about the same age as Fu Bao."

Things are getting even more complicated!

Old Li took a deep breath. His original plan was that since Wang Shuai had promised to give their family a job, he would appease Li Laosan and give the job to Li Laosi.

Since Li Fuyi was involved, Old Man Li dared not take the risk. Director Wang specifically mentioned this point, which might indicate that he was considering a marriage alliance.

Looking at Li Laosi, whose head was lowered and whose face was shadowed with a hint of loneliness, Old Man Li's heart softened.

Of the four sons in the Li family, only Li Laosi was someone he watched grow up. The other three had already grown into young adults when he returned. He was closest to Li Laosi.

"Third brother, what are your plans for work?"

"How should we arrange it?"

Li Laosan didn't understand the meaning behind Li Laotou's question. His daughter had saved Wang Shuai, so naturally the job she gave him, her father, would be given to her.

"Third Uncle, you're so stupid!"

Li Yiyi made a funny face by wiping her face with her two little hands.

"Grandpa wanted to see if he could give the job to his fourth uncle."

It was too late to cover her mouth. Boss Li acted as if nothing had happened. Jiang Yuting huddled behind him. As long as they weren't embarrassed, it was fine.

The previously harmonious atmosphere instantly crumbled.

[Father, am I not telling the truth?]

Why is everyone so quiet?

Are you too happy?

Li Laoda and Jiang Yuting were speechless. They finally understood: their daughter was very clever, but unfortunately, she had a mouth that easily offended people.

"Father, is that really what you think?"

Looking at the silent Old Man Li, and then at the speechless Old Man Li, Old Man Li was heartbroken. He thought that although he wasn't as important as Old Man Li in Old Man Li's heart, he still held some weight.

"Third brother, that's not what your father thinks."

When the idea was voiced by the toddler Li Yiyi, Old Man Li's first thought was to brush it off. As he said, before his sons could see any significant differences, he wouldn't offend any of them.

Li Laosan's ugly expression softened slightly, but then Li Laotou's words plunged him back into despair.

"Third son, the reason I'm asking you so many questions is mainly to see what kind of job Director Wang is offering. Fu Bao saved him, so the reward must be quite high. If it's just an ordinary worker's job, that's fine; anyone can do that."
