Chapter 1066 Don’t Be Greedy
Taohua glared at Liu Xiaoli and asked, "What were you doing when I was talking to my wife just now?"
Liu Xiaoli scratched his forehead and said, "I've been thinking about you being here, haven't I?
Your words are my words, so I was distracted. Peach Blossom, pinch me."
Taohua really pinched Liu Xiaoli hard. Liu Xiaoli stamped his feet and yelled, "It hurts, it hurts, Taohua, be gentler."
"Now you understand, Madam is not the kind of person who doesn't keep her word. She said she would leave the shop to us to manage, and that means she wants us to manage it.
Liu Xiaoli, let me tell you, Madam hates people who say one thing and mean another, and so do I, so from now on..."
"Taohua, don't worry, from now on we'll do whatever you say."
"Are you saying this willingly?"
"I'd love to."
"That's more like it. Let's do it well. Otherwise, if we don't do it well, we really won't be able to explain to the Madam."
Liu Xiaoli sighed again, "Ah, Taohua, why do I feel like the burden on my shoulders is so heavy?
However, since Madam has given me this opportunity, I must seize it.
By the end of the year, I'll have earned enough money to marry a wife."
Before Taohua could roll her eyes at him, Liu Xiaoli had already run away. He smiled at Taohua and said, "Taohua, just wait. I will definitely marry you home during the Chinese New Year this year."
Taohua stamped her feet shyly. "Who wants to marry you? Liu Xiaoli, if you don't work hard, I'll send you back to your farm."
When Zhang Juexia returned home, she started to sort out the account books. She planned to sort out the account books of the shops she and Chen Xuan had cooperated in.
She was also planning to finish sorting out her and Chen Xuan's shop, and then sort out her and Gao Xing's shop.
Alas, all good things must come to an end, and parting ways amicably is the best outcome.
For several days in a row, Zhang Juexia did not go out and stayed at home to do the accounts.
In Yejia Village, Chen Yu and Madam Chen had been holding Chen Xuan and admonishing him for a long time, "Xuan'er, when you see your sister Jue Xia, please speak nicely.
Never lose your temper.
There has been no news from your brother-in-law in Qinglan City, she must be very worried."
Chen Yu agreed, "Your mother is right, when you see your sister Jue Xia, you must talk to her nicely.
If she insists on separating from us, then let's separate.
Anyway, we'll just take the loss, it's not easy for her to take care of a child."
Although Chen Xuan was annoyed, he still nodded in agreement.
Wang Guilan and Ye Jishun also rushed over when they learned that Chen Xuan was going to Qingfeng City. Ye Jishun handed the bag in his hand to Chen Xuan and said, "Master Chen, I prepared some things for Juexia and her son. Please help us take them."
Chen Xuan handed it to Chen Youan beside him, "Grandpa Ye, Grandma, don't worry, I will definitely give the things to my sister Jue Xia."
Ye Jishun bowed and said, "Thank you very much!"
Chen Xuan returned the greeting obediently, "You're welcome!"
Wang Guilan pulled Chen Xuan aside and said, "Young Master Chen, when you meet Juexia, if she asks about her family, tell her everything is fine!
Let her take good care of herself. When her grandfather and I are free one day, we will go to Qingfeng City to see her."
Chen Xuan nodded, jumped into the carriage and prepared to set off.
Li Zao came out with the help of the maid. She looked at Chen Xuan eagerly, "Master Chen, have you forgotten what I entrusted to you?"
Mrs. Chen looked at Li Zao, who was carrying a big belly, and hurried forward to comfort her, "Hey, child, we had a good talk yesterday.
You are a double now, so you can't be careless.
If anything goes wrong, you will be sorry to the child's father who is far away, and you will also be sorry to Juexia.
Although she is in Qingfeng City, she has arranged everything for you.
There are maids to cook and serve, and I heard Manager Li say that day that the nanny who delivered you will be here in a few days.
Let’s be obedient and go home quickly.
Whatever you tell Xuan Er to do, he will definitely do it for you."
Under Mrs. Chen's persuasion, Li Zao watched Chen Xuan's carriage disappear before returning home.
After Li Zao returned, Madam Chen pointed at Li Zao and said to Wang Guilan, "Zao'er is such a lucky girl.
Before she got married, she was so thin that her only skin was showing.
Now it’s good, the whole person looks plump.”
Wang Guilan nodded in agreement, "How could she not be good?
Although her husband looks honest, he is also smart.
He entrusted his wife and her unborn child to Juexia. Juexia was not a stingy person, and he arranged several people to serve them.
My wife from Beishan only has one maidservant waiting on her!"
"Madam, this is incomparable. Yiqin has Beishan, your eldest brother and his wife, and you two old people by her side.
Zao'er is only served by people found by Juexia!
There is no comparison, and it cannot be compared.
In the final analysis, Yiqin is still blessed. "
Mrs. Chen made Wang Guilan happy with just a few words. "Mrs. Chen, you really are worthy of being from a wealthy family in the capital. You can make me happy with just a few words.
But you do have a point.
Well, Madam Chen, I have to go home first. Zaohua made some chicken soup for Yiqin at home. I'll see how it goes and ask her to send some for Zao'er. It's really not easy for her."
Mrs. Chen smiled and saw Wang Guilan off, then sighed.
Chen Yu didn't want to make his wife unhappy, so he deliberately smiled and teased her, "Madam, let me ask you, are you tired from talking to Madam Ye?"
"Am I really that fragile?
I just feel…”
"Madam, let me be frank. There are very few country ladies who can have the same insight as Madam Ye."
“That’s right!
This Yejia Village cannot be compared with the capital."
"Madam, you are really smart. This year I plan to let Zhao Ning go and not let him study in the school at night.
Let him come home and Madam will make all the arrangements."
"Are his parents willing?"
"Don't you have your husband's eloquence?
To be honest, the people in this country are simple and honest. Our Chen family really doesn't need that little money, but the Zhao family doesn't have any."
"Just be happy secretly!
The Zhao family is such a good person, the children they raise will surely be good too."
"That's right. If anyone says anything bad about Zhao Ning, I'll be the first one to object. This child is so sensible that it makes me feel distressed.
Madam, we just don’t have a daughter. If we did have one, I would have wanted to marry Zhao Ning off to her as my son-in-law.”
"Don't even think about such a good thing.
However, Zhao Ning is your apprentice after all, and that is enough.
As a person, don't be too greedy, this is what you always say."
"Yes, I listen to my wife and am not greedy."
