Chapter 346 This Gift Should Be Received
Li Yiran was still worried and warned Wang Shuying again, asking her not to talk nonsense.
"You kid, I'm just talking to you about this, why are you so angry?"
"Mom, you just asked me to follow Zhang Juexia to learn this and that. We need help from her, so we can't say bad things about her behind her back.
Besides, didn’t you also say how important a woman’s reputation is? If this word gets out accidentally, something that didn’t happen will be said to have happened.
How will Zhang Juexia survive in the county in the future?"
Seeing Li Yiran's serious expression, Wang Shuying also felt that she shouldn't have said that. "Okay, I'm wrong, isn't that enough? I promise you, I won't mention this matter again."
"That's more like it."
Li Yiran nodded with satisfaction and took the opportunity to slip out.
Zhang Juexia didn't know that she had become Li Yiran's role model.
On the way back with Ye Beixiu, she heard people whispering about Xu Yanchen being beaten. The rumor on the street was that he mistakenly broke into the county government office and disrupted the banquet hosted by the county magistrate's wife.
Ye Beixiu patted Zhang Juexia's hand and said, "My dear, this matter has passed. There is no need to worry about it."
Zhang Juexia hummed lazily.
Ye Beixiu saw that Zhang Juexia was in a bad mood, so he asked Lin Yuan to speed up the carriage so that they could get home faster.
When he got home, Zhang Juexia saw the gifts placed in the yard and was about to ask Li Yun who had come.
Yang Zhi came over with two officers.
"Master, Madam, the Magistrate, Mrs. Chen, has sent two officials to give Madam some gifts."
Ye Beixiu understood what he meant and quickly saluted and greeted the two officers.
Zhang Juexia also saluted from a distance.
Yang Zhi asked Zhang Juexia, "The official said this gift was sent by the County Magistrate's wife, Mrs. Chen, to calm you down. Do you want to see it?"
The two officers had met their boss, completed their mission, and most importantly, received their reward. Of course, they hurried away. "Mr. Ye, Mrs. Ye, we still have to go back and report to Mrs. Chen. Goodbye!"
Before Zhang Juexia could decide whether to keep the gift or let them take it away, the man disappeared.
Forget it. After all, she was frightened because of the banquet at the county government office. It was only right for Mrs. Chen to give her a gift, so she should accept it!
Li Yun, along with Taohua and Guihua, were packing up the gifts from Madam Chen in the courtyard. "Madam, our county magistrate's wife is really living a good life. This material has been in the warehouse for years. Look at the dust on it."
Zhang Juexia went up to take a look and saw that it was indeed covered with a thick layer of dust. "Our Madam Chen is used to being frugal. It's okay, Sister Yang, you pack them up. I will take them with me when I return to the village one day.
This flashy fabric is only suitable for being sent to a handicraft workshop."
Li Yun nodded in agreement and said, "Fortunately, Madam has a workshop at home, otherwise, Madam Chen would have sent it here and you would have moved it to the warehouse.
When you remember to give it to someone else, you can move it to that person’s warehouse.
By then, I'm afraid the dust on the cloth will cover its original color."
"That's exactly the point... However, these materials are really good, let's make the best use of them!
It would be a shame to keep it in the warehouse."
Zhang Juexia watched Li Yun deliver the pieces of cloth to the warehouse. Ye Beixiu then stood behind her and asked, "Madam, how should we return the gift?"
"I didn't plan to return the favor."
Ye Beixiu was stunned. "Isn't this a bad idea? After all, gifts should be exchanged. Besides, this gift is from the county magistrate's wife."
"What she sent is what she sent, and it is also true that I was frightened at her house."
Ye Beixiu thought about it and felt that what his wife said made sense, so he stopped insisting and said, "Then I'll listen to you."
Zhang Juexia was very satisfied with Ye Beixiu's attitude, "It's right to listen to my wife."
Ye Beixiu dotingly flicked her forehead with his finger, "You're becoming more and more lawless... But I like it."
Zhang Juexia grabbed his hand and was about to bite it, but he dodged it easily, "Madam, no? Are you craving meat? Ask Sister Yang to put more meat in the lunch later."
Such a wonderful time together between husband and wife was ruined by this guy's words.
"Is eating all you want?"
"That's what grandma said. When I was little, every time I bit my lip, grandma would say I was craving meat. So, if you bite my hand, doesn't that mean you're craving meat?"
Zhang Juexia was speechless. "Yes, yes, yes..."
Ye Beixiu actually planned to run to the kitchen to see if there was any meat in today's meal.
Zhang Juexia was immediately amused by his appearance and burst into laughter. All his previous unhappiness disappeared in an instant.
Seeing her smiling happily, Ye Beixiu naturally became happy too.
After lunch, he went to the Song Mansion again.
At this moment, he didn't dare to relax at all.
Zhang Juexia took a nap in the afternoon. After waking up, he checked the account book in the shop. It was dark when he finished checking the accounts.
She didn't light the lights either, thinking that she would go out to eat after Ye Beixiu came back.
While she was in a daze, Li Yun walked in from outside and first complained that she didn't know to turn on the lights when it was dark.
Li Yun lit the light while complaining, and then told her, "Madam, Li Le wants to see you. Can you let him in?"
Zhang Juexia rubbed his tired eyes, "Did he say anything about it?"
"That's not the case. It looks quite urgent."
Ever since the last time Li Le brought Mrs. Liu here, Zhang Juexia seemed to have a shadow in his heart, fearing that he would cause him trouble again.
But she couldn't just let people wait outside like this. After all, Li Le was the owner of her shop. What if something urgent really happened?
Then, she sat up straight, "Sister-in-law Yang, let him in!"
Li Le was getting a little anxious waiting outside. When he heard Li Yun calling him, he quickly trotted a few steps and asked, "Sister-in-law, how is the boss feeling?"
Li Yun smiled and teased him, "Why? If the wife is in a bad mood, are you planning not to go in?"
Li Le shook his head like a rattle, "Sister-in-law, no, I'm just asking casually."
Li Yun couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Go in, it seems okay."
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
Li Le straightened his clothes, took a deep breath, and then went into the house.
After entering the room, he first bowed to Zhang Juexia, then took out a letter from his sleeve and placed it in front of Zhang Juexia, "This is what my father sent for me today. He said that it must be delivered to you and you must review it as soon as possible."
Zhang Juexia quickly opened the letter and read it quickly. The more he read, the angrier he became.
Li Le also felt the air pressure in the room getting lower and lower. He asked worriedly, "Boss, what did my father say in the letter?
But what happened in the shop?"
