Chapter 822: Madam Ye and the Steward Argued
Zhang Juexia looked at Li Le with a smile, "Li Le, I do plan to buy this shop from the Li family."
Li Le looked at Zhang Juexia in shock, "Boss, you have to think this through carefully.
I know that you and Miss Yingyue have a good relationship, but you can't just focus on your sisterly love and ignore yourself.
Boss, buying this shop is not a small amount of money.
If this happens to us, it will be really troublesome."
Li Le was so anxious that he was running around looking for Ye Beixiu, his savior.
"Okay, stop looking, my husband is not at home right now.
Li Le, as for buying a shop, if there are no major changes, it is basically settled.
You are my right-hand man, so I need to talk to you about this matter in advance."
Li Le's mouth opened as big as an egg. He wanted to persuade but didn't know how, so he could only stand there blankly.
Zhang Juexia looked at him and shook his head helplessly, "Manager Li, can you please be more ambitious? It's just a shop!
Even if we don't make any money from buying it, we still have to be magnanimous."
"Boss, we do business just to make money!
If this isn't profitable, why should we do it?"
"Who said I don't want to make money? I'm not that kind of person as your boss!"
"But that shop, he is clearly..."
Li Le was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and couldn't say what he wanted to say.
In his heart, he hoped that Ye Beixiu would show up soon, because now he was the only one who could persuade Zhang Juexia.
Zhang Juexia shouted, "Sister-in-law Yang, bring the tea."
Li Yun didn't come, but Taohua came with a teapot.
Zhang Juexia pointed at Li Le and said to Taohua, "Hurry up and pour a cup of tea for Li Daguanshi to help him cool down."
"Boss, I'm not angry, I just..."
Taohua obediently poured a cup of tea for Li Le and handed it to him, "Steward Li, please have some tea."
Then she stared at Li Le seriously for a few seconds and said, "Steward Li, Madam is right. You have a lot of internal heat. I specially brewed this tea to reduce your internal heat. You should drink more."
Li Le took the teacup, took a sip, and then frowned.
Taohua stared at him, still smiling, "Manager Li, good medicine tastes bitter.
The teas that are said to reduce internal heat don’t taste very good, but after drinking them, they really do reduce internal heat.”
Because Zhang Juexia was present, Li Le had no choice but to frown and drink it all in one gulp.
Taohua was very tactful and poured another glass for Li Le. She didn't leave until she watched him finish the drink.
"Madam, this heat-reducing tea cannot be drunk with just one cup. You need to drink two cups to see the effect."
Zhang Juexia suppressed his laughter and waved his hand, "Li Le, Taohua knows a lot about food, you can't go wrong if you listen to her."
Li Le had no choice but to bite the bullet and drink another glass.
Zhang Juexia winked at Taohua, who pursed her lips and retreated with satisfaction.
Li Yun scolded her from the side, "But Manager Li is in charge of all the shops in Shunhe County. You are so bold!"
"Mother, it was Madam who asked me to make this tea, not me.
Besides, the lady wanted to buy the Li family’s shop just to sell the fish in the farm.
If Li Daguanshi doesn't allow me to buy a shop, then the fish in the farm won't be sold."
Li Yun was so frightened that he quickly covered Taohua's mouth, "My dear, you have been out with the Madam for a while, and you know a lot.
My dear, have you ever heard that the more you know, the faster you die?
"Mom, please don't scare me.
Madam, you are not that kind of person at all.
Besides, the people in Cuiliu Village are really nice.
I made several good friends at Zhuangzi!
They all hope that the fish in the pond can be sold at a good price, so that they can get more money during the New Year.
Li Yun was very pleased to hear Taohua's words, but she still couldn't help but scold Taohua a few times, and finally told Taohua, "In the future, when you stay with the madam, you should observe and learn more, and talk less."
"Mom, I don't know how many times you've said this, I already knew it.
The lady is very nice to me. When we were at the farm, she taught me how to cook several dishes!
My wife also taught me how to cook those fish.
Mother, what do you think, if Madam really opens a fish shop, I can go and work there?
"As a girl, don't think about those extraneous things."
"Mother, what would Madam do if I told her what you said?"
Li Yun was so angry that he tapped Taohua's forehead fiercely with his hand, "I think you have really grown in ability."
Taohua hugged Li Yun's arm and started to act coquettishly, "Mom, Madam said that everyone can do what they like."
“Let’s talk about this another time!
Let me tell you, Madam, you opened a shop to make money, not just to play house as a child."
"Mom, I know the importance of this."
"I'm telling you, you must do your job well. Remember, when encountering something, never act on your own."
"Mom, you've said this so many times, I'm tired of it even if you're not."
Li Le in the room struggled in his heart countless times. He still wanted to persuade Zhang Juexia to give up the idea of buying the Li family shop.
Just as he was about to open his mouth, Zhang Juexia stopped him, "Li Le, take back what you said to persuade me!
This time I have made up my mind. Even if you say it to the sky, I will buy the Li family's shop."
"Boss, you weren't such an impulsive person before. Why are you different now that you have a child?"
Li Le regretted what he said. He looked at Zhang Juexia helplessly and said, "Boss, I don't mean anything else. I'm just worried that the money we worked so hard to earn will be wasted."
"Li Le, I understand your good intentions!
Let me ask you, have I ever lost money in any business I wanted to do?
"Not really."
"That's all. Just put your mind at ease. After I take over the Li family's shop, I'll tell you what to do next."
"Can......"
Zhang Juexia waved his hand and drove Li Le out.
Li Le's anxious look was seen by the person sent by the Li family to investigate.
Li Jinyuan listened to the report from the inquiring party and asked, "Are you saying that Madam Ye had a quarrel with her right-hand man?"
"Yes, from what I've gathered, it seems the two people have a disagreement."
"Oh, how are they consistent? Tell me in detail."
"From what that person said, Madam Ye wants to buy our shop, but Manager Li is not happy about it.
The two people started arguing over this matter.”
As the man spoke, he raised his head and glanced at Li Jinyuan.
Li Jinyuan fiddled with his fingers, urging him to continue.
“Mrs. Ye probably wants to buy the shop for the sake of the young lady.
But Manager Li thinks we've cheated Madam Ye and won't let her buy our shop no matter what."
