Old Mrs. Li didn't respond and just pretended that she didn't hear what Niu Cuihua said. She had finally found someone to talk to, so she naturally hoped that she could go and live in the county town!
So, after hearing what Niu Cuihua said, she spoke nonchalantly.
"Oh, sister-in-law, you've never lived in the county town, so you don't know how convenient it is to live here. Look, I live in this family compound, and it's so convenient to buy things. Besides, using water here is much more convenient than in the countryside! Back home, you have to pick water, but here, you just need to twist it and water comes out!"
At the end, she said directly, her tone slightly raised, "I'm telling you, sister, as long as you stay here for a while, you will experience the benefits. I guarantee that you will be so comfortable that you won't want to go home!"
But Niu Cuihua didn't want to live in the county town at all, so no matter how much she talked, she still looked indifferent.
She kept refusing, and not only that, she had her own reasons.
"Big sister, no matter how good you say it is, I don't think there's anything good here!"
Old Mrs. Li looked at Niu Cuihua with a puzzled look, not quite understanding why the old lady was unwilling to come to the family compound!
This family compound is not cleaner or more convenient than the countryside. So why doesn't this old lady want to live there when she's fine?
Just then, Niu Cuihua's voice rang out.
"Look, I have my own big yard in the countryside. I usually have nothing to do there and can do whatever I want. But it's not the same in the city! Even eating is like this, and I have to pay for it!"
"Besides, I just saw there were only two taps, but there are so many people living in this yard, so we have to queue up to use water!"
"Besides, the second brother and his wife are both in their forties and fifties. What do I have to worry about?"
Old Mrs. Li didn't expect Niu Cuihua to say so much at once, and the most important thing was that what she said was quite right, wasn't it?
But the old lady really liked Niu Cuihua, and she really wanted her to come to the county town, so she racked her brains and wanted to speak up and try to persuade her again!
Just then, Niu Cuihua spoke again.
"Hey, big sister, are we there yet? Why are there so many people in front of me?"
Hearing what Niu Cuihua said, Mrs. Li quickly looked up.
That’s right, the crowd in front is at the vegetable market!
"Yes, it's right in front, sister, you have such sharp eyes!"
Niu Cuihua listened to this and smiled, "Oh, don't praise me, there are so many people in front of me, they know this without me saying it, don't you think?"
Then, looking at the person in front of her, she felt something was wrong again.
Aren't businesses still prohibited? Why are there so many people selling things here? Is no one checking?
Thinking this in her heart, she asked, "There are so many people selling vegetables here, but why is no one doing anything when I see them?"
Knowing that Niu Cuihua didn't understand the specific situation, Mrs. Li quickly began to explain.
"Sister-in-law, you've never been to the county town, so you don't know that this area is allowed by the higher-ups!"
"These vegetable vendors are all from nearby villages. Before, they used to come to the county town secretly to sell vegetables, but they were always caught. Then, the higher-ups noticed this and simply designated this area as a special place for nearby villagers to come and sell their vegetables! After all, it's just a small profit, and as long as no one says anything, it won't cause any trouble!"
Niu Cuihua didn't expect this to be the reason and couldn't help but sigh.
"I see. I heard that business is now allowed!"
When Mrs. Li heard Niu Cuihua sigh like this, she wanted to show off in front of Niu Cuihua, so she continued speaking.
"Old sister, you may not know this, but it was your family's Ai Dang who originally proposed this idea. If it weren't for him, how could these villagers sell vegetables here?"
"Speaking of which, your child Ai Dang is truly a good official!"
When Niu Cuihua heard her words, she knew she was complimenting her and quickly waved her hand, "Please don't praise him like that. As a cadre, it's his job to work for the people's welfare. If he doesn't do anything, how can he have the nerve to hold this position?"
At first, Mrs. Li thought that Niu Cuihua was just an old country lady with no real knowledge. She never expected that she could say such words.
This seemed to be a bit inconsiderate of her.
Therefore, she looked embarrassed and nodded repeatedly, "You are right, sister, I was mistaken!"
Niu Cuihua glanced at her sideways but ignored her.
As soon as she said that, the old lady would definitely respond again, and she didn't want to listen to the old lady nagging anymore.
They just talked all the way, and she also understood that the deputy director's mother was just like those old ladies in the countryside, who flattered the powerful and looked down on the weak!
Although this person has no bad intentions, Niu Cuihua really can't get along with such a person!
Look, looking at the vegetable stall not far away, she quickly took a few steps forward.
As for Old Mrs. Li, when she saw Niu Cuihua leaving, she hurried forward a few steps to catch up with Niu Cuihua.
No matter what the old lady thinks of her, she has to help her son build good relationships!
Her son had told her before that Li Aidang was from the army and knew many leaders. He was also very capable and had rejected many promotion opportunities in the past!
Seeing that he has made great achievements recently, maybe his superiors will promote him again!
Moreover, this was the first time he came to trouble my family. If I could accompany this old lady well, maybe he would say a few good words to the leader, and my son would get promoted!
Thinking this in her mind, Old Mrs. Li walked towards Niu Cuihua like the wind.
When Niu Cuihua was picking vegetables, she noticed from the corner of her eyes that this person was walking towards her, and she curled her lips in impatience.
Is this person so tactless? Can't he see that he doesn't want to talk to her?
On this side, as soon as Li Mingxi arrived at the textile factory, he couldn't wait to ask someone to help him find Dong Sisi!
Unexpectedly, after waiting at the door for a long time, Dong Sisi still didn't come out.
Just as she was about to lose her patience, someone rushed to the gate.
As soon as she saw Li Mingxi, she asked directly.
"Are you here to look for Dong Sisi? She's not here! Stop waiting and leave!"
After saying this, the man turned and left without caring about Li Mingxi's reaction.
Li Mingxi was still confused and naturally couldn't let her leave like this, so he quickly called her before waiting for her to leave.
"Hey, don't leave yet. You haven't explained what's going on yet! Why isn't Dong Sisi here?"
The man was in a hurry to go back to work. When he saw Li Mingxi calling him, he spoke coldly with a bad tone.
"You ask me, how do I know?"
Li Mingxi didn't expect to get so many answers and was confused.
The man ignored Li Mingxi's reaction, turned around and ran back, not caring that she was still standing there in a daze.
Before Li Mingxi had time to react, the man had already run away!
