Chapter 254 He has never been a greedy person
Yi Weicai is Huang Bin's distant cousin. When Mr. Huang assigned this task to him, he was somewhat unhappy.
It seems easy and simple, but it gives people a feeling of being a 'slave'.
But he didn't dare to offend the Huang family, and he really needed their help, so he had no choice but to agree.
What he couldn't stand most was those young men and women who took advantage of their family's wealth and didn't know how to respect others.
After being glared at by Huang Bin, Yi Wei frowned and swallowed his anger.
Huang Bin was not good at coaxing people. Seeing Ruan Qing's face flushed with anger, he became anxious again, "Don't be angry, it's all my fault. I apologize to you. I'm sorry."
Ruan Qing turned her face away, pursed her lips and said nothing.
Huang Bin felt very guilty that he shouldn't have snatched her favorite food out of greed.
He has never been a greedy person, but mainly because he was a little hungry, he was afraid that it would be troublesome to go to the toilet on the way, so he ate an egg in the morning.
After tasting the potato chips handed to him by Ruan Qing, he felt so hungry that he could eat a cow.
I took the jar away just to tease her, and I had secretly kept it in mind so that I could buy her more in the future.
I never expected this thing couldn't be bought.
This is really a big disaster.
Since it was not bought, it was very likely made by someone. Huang Bin’s first reaction was to think of Lin Ziqiu, and he wanted to ask the driver to fly to Su City immediately.
Obviously unrealistic.
Along the way, Ruan Qing didn't say another word. She felt a little carsick if she didn't eat, so she took a piece of ginger from her pocket, put it in her mouth, and closed her eyes, and then she felt better.
Huang Bin thought she was asleep and didn't dare to say a word. Even if the two people in the front row made a noise, he would glare at them.
Yi Weicai felt very aggrieved and his resentment towards Ruan Qing deepened.

There were a lot of people on the train. There were no mobile phones in those days, so the passengers were chatting and reading newspapers, and some were playing poker together.
Lin Ziqiu was too tired to get enough rest last night and is now catching up on his sleep.
Song Hui saw her sleeping face, got up and covered her with a blanket.
Tian Xiaofeng looked at him warily. Anyone who is being too nice to him for no reason is either a villain or a thief!
He pulled Song Hui's arm, lowered his voice, and asked tentatively: "To be honest, there must be a lot of chefs in your city of Su, why did you choose my sister?"
Song Hui retracted his gaze and spoke in his usual gentle voice, "There are many cooks, but cooking skills vary. Your sister won me over with her strength, so I chose her. Is this reason enough?"
Tian Xiaofeng was skeptical, "Is it really just like that?"
"What do you think?"
He always had a gentle smile on his face, "Don't you trust your sister's cooking skills?"
"Of course I believe it! My sister's cooking skills are unmatched by ordinary people!" As Lin Ziqiu's little fan, Tian Xiaofeng supports her wholeheartedly.
Song Hui chuckled, adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, and said kindly, "That's it. Don't worry. I will arrange everything when we get to Su City. If you need anything, just tell me."
Tian Xiaofeng was half-believing and half-doubting his words. He glanced at him thoughtfully, and finally fell asleep leaning against the car window.
It was already afternoon when we arrived in Suzhou.
The Shen family sent a car to pick us up.
There are almost no private cars these days, most of them are government cars.
Shen's mother gave birth to three daughters and one son. Shen Xiu was the youngest daughter of the Shen family. She had two older sisters, the eldest sister Shen Wufan and the second sister, Shen Wujing, who was Song Hui's mother, died shortly after giving birth to Song Hui.
The person who came to pick them up today was Shen Xiu's brother, Shen Zimo.
The Shen family has always been a scholarly family, and Shen Zimo is currently the president of Soochow University.
"Brother, why are you here?"
The moment Shen Xiu saw him, she suddenly became nervous.
Their relationship as siblings was very ordinary. At the beginning, the whole family opposed her marrying Fang Jiming, and Shen Zimo was the loudest opponent.
So over the years, Shen Zimo has never been kind to her.
"I asked my uncle to come. We have so much luggage. How convenient it would be to take a bus back with the help of my uncle?"
Song Hui quickly explained and changed the subject, saying, "Uncle, let me introduce you to Miss Lin Ziqiu, the chef for grandma's birthday banquet."
"And her cooking helper sister, Tian Xiaofeng."
Shen Zimo had a stern face at first, but when he saw Lin Ziqiu, he was shocked, "You——"
Lin Ziqiu saw his reaction clearly, which was somewhat similar to when Song Hui first met him.
It was like looking through her and seeing another person.
Song Hui was afraid of scaring Lin Ziqiu, so he blocked his uncle's sight, "Uncle, don't just stand there, help us move the luggage."
Shen Zimo came back to his senses and coughed twice: "Go home first, and talk about it when you get home."
Tian Xiaofeng also noticed something was wrong, and whispered to Lin Ziqiu, "Sister, they are so weird..."
Lin Ziqiu patted his back, his face calm, "Calm down, we'll talk later."
"Um!"
The car had exactly five seats, and Lin Ziqiu, Shen Xiu and Tian Xiaofeng sat in the back.
The driver was replaced by Song Hui, who kept winking at Shen Zimo, signaling him to control his emotions.
"The food is ready at home, and mother has been waiting for you."
Shen Zimo said this to Shen Xiu.
In the eyes of outsiders, Shen Xiu has always been a calm, steady and quiet person, but as soon as she returns to her parents' home, she becomes the tolerant and sensible youngest daughter she was before she got married.
"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long..."
"I'm glad you know. You insisted on leaving during the New Year because there was a rainstorm there, which made your mother worried for a long time. This time, during her birthday party, you should stay and spend more time with her."
Shen Zimo's tone didn't sound like he was discussing with her at all, but rather like an order, which made Lin Ziqiu frown.
But Shen Xiu just nodded and said, "It's my fault for making mother worry. I plan to stay a little longer this time."
"Just so you know."
The atmosphere in the car was very cold. Lin Ziqiu didn't say anything and even closed his eyes, pretending to be asleep.
She still hasn't figured out some things.
Although she had a bold guess in her mind, she decided to wait and see before verifying it.
The Shen family's residence is a large hall-style residential building with a courtyard.
The courtyard is symmetrical on all sides and along the central axis. The roofs of the houses overlap and are connected to each other. All the houses have a front porch or a wide front. The courtyard in the middle is smaller, forming a well-like shape, so it is called a patio.
From the outside, it looks similar to the courtyard houses in the capital.
This is the ancestral home of the Shen family. Although it is not as luxurious as those large garden houses, the furnishings and arrangements show that the Shen family has a profound heritage.
Lin Ziqiu stopped with some hesitation, "We are just here to help in the kitchen. We can just stay in the guesthouse. There is no need to go through so much trouble."
