Chapter 140: You took the initiative first
Father Liu thought that Ying Zhihai was Wen Yan's brother-in-law, and it would be difficult to fool him. Just as he was about to speak, Wen Yan interrupted him.
"The money from selling them can buy twenty strings of candied haws. Do you want some? How about asking Uncle Liu to buy some for you?"
Ying Zhihai is not young anymore, but he has a very naive personality.
He frowned, thinking over and over again with a tangled look on his face, and then shook his head reluctantly: "Aunt Zhang is not in good health, keep the money for Aunt Zhang's medical treatment."
Zhang Gan'niang couldn't help but laugh.
She took out her purse and handed it to Liu San's wife: "Lao San's wife, go buy some candied haws for everyone. Xiao Hai and Xiao Xue, two strings each."
On the way to Beijing, Wen Yan paid for their food, drink, accommodation and transportation.
Even if you don't have a lot of money, you can still buy a few candied haws.
Ying Zhixue curled her lips.
So stingy.
After all, they are relatives.
The recipe for making tofu skin was given by Wen Yan.
The business was also negotiated by Wen Yan.
Instead of giving half of the money he earned to his in-laws, he actually wanted to send them away with just a few candied haws.
Wen Yan is the same. She is already married, but she still looks down on her parents!
However, she only dared to think about these things in her heart and did not dare to say a word.
Otherwise, my elder brother would come and teach me a lesson again.
Humph! He really forgot his sister after getting a wife.
That night.
Zhang Ganniang's client.
Father Liu finished massaging her legs.
Zhang Gan's mother let him rest on the Luohan bed, fearing that she would pass her illness on to him.
However, Father Liu stubbornly lay down next to Zhang Gan'niang.
He held his wife's hand tightly, leaned close to her ear, and said cautiously and excitedly: "Do you know how much business we discussed today?"
Although Zhang Ganniang was exhausted, she still pulled herself together and asked her husband with a smile, "How much?"
"One hundred and seventy wen per catty, and they directly asked for a thousand catties. Madam, do you know? In just a short while, we made a hundred and seventy taels of silver."
"How much did you say?" Zhang Gan'niang couldn't believe it, and her voice rose two degrees.
People have become more energetic.
"The total is one hundred and seventy taels, and you paid me a deposit of fifty-seven taels on the spot." Father Liu said, and took out a purse from his arms and stuffed it into Zhang Gan'niang's hand.
Zhang Ganniang only felt that her hands were heavy.
Fifty-seven taels!
She had never seen so much money in her life!
She knew she could make some money if the deal went through.
I thought a dozen or twenty taels would be the maximum, but it turned out to be more than one hundred and seventy taels.
Zhang Gan's mother was both relieved and moved: "Our daughter has a promising future."
Father Liu said, “Of course our daughter has a promising future.
Moreover, I can see that Yanyan cares about us.
It's just that they didn't live together, so she felt uncomfortable suddenly recognizing her as a relative.
Otherwise, wouldn't it be better for her to keep the recipe for making tofu skin, which is so profitable, and open a workshop to make money?
Why give it to us for free?"
"I know.
From the first time I met him, I knew he was a good kid.”
"I have such a wonderful daughter, so please don't give up on me!" Father Liu's voice suddenly became choked with sobs. "Please don't leave me alone in this world."
They have been married for more than 20 years.
How could he not see that his wife had made up her mind to die?
“If you don’t think about me, you should think about Yanyan.
We just started interacting with her and you fell ill. What will others think and say?
Those gossips in the village will definitely say that Yanyan is a disaster star and will kill her parents as soon as she comes back.
How do you expect Yanyan to behave like a human being?"
"I..." Zhang Ganniang's tears also fell, "But my illness is a bottomless pit, it will drag you down."
"If you really want to be less of a burden, then take your medicine and cooperate with the doctor. When you get better, help me make tofu skin and earn back the money you spent.
Don't forget, you're the best at making stewed vegetables in our family. You're really willing to leave me alone when my two daughters-in-law haven't even finished their apprenticeship yet..."
This night.
Father Liu took Zhang Gan's mother aside and talked a lot.
The next morning.
It was getting light.
Wen Yan woke up.
She opened her eyes and what came into view was Ying Zhilin's handsome face.
His skin is smooth and delicate, with almost no pores.
The eyebrows cut by the knife are as black as ink.
Her long hair is as smooth as silk.
With a high nose bridge and rosy lips, she looks very soft.
Anyway, he is asleep, so it should be okay if I just touch him a little!
Wen Yan has always been a man of action.
Thinking this in my mind, I did it.
She reached out and gently touched his lips.
Just as soft and warm as imagined.
Wen Yan's heart began to beat faster.
Her fingertips slid across his lips and were about to withdraw.
The sleeping person suddenly opened his mouth and took her finger into his mouth.
Ying Zhilin opened his eyes and met her eyes.
There was a haziness in his eyes as if he had just woken up, like a lazy yet seductive cat.
Wen Yan's cheeks turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
She wanted to withdraw her finger.
But he refused to give in.
When she moved, his tongue pressed against the tip of her finger, like a warm yet slippery snake, forceful and aggressive.
"...Let me go." Wen Yan made a sound as small as a mosquito's hum and turned her eyes away, no longer looking at him.
Ying Zhilin seemed to have finally come to his senses.
He loosened his grip slightly, and Wen Yan quickly retracted his fingers.
Hmm…
His saliva was on my fingers.
She felt a little disgusted and quietly wiped it off on the quilt.
Ying Zhilin suddenly came up.
He pecked her lightly on the lips and quickly pulled away.
"You..." Wen Yan's brain was slow and he didn't react for a while.
Ying Zhilin came up again.
This time he kissed her firmly.
Wen Yan's mind was in a mess, filled with chaotic voices that made it impossible for her to think.
But she instinctively pushed him away.
Ying Zhilin almost fell under the bed.
Wen Yan sat up and stared at him unkindly: "You've crossed the line."
Ying Zhilin sat up with an innocent look on his face: "You were the one who touched me first, I thought you..."
"Shut up." Wen Yan stepped forward and covered his mouth.
Ying Zhilin fell down with one push, and Wen Yan took the opportunity to press on him.
Ying Zhilin blinked his innocent eyes, as if to say: Look, you pushed me down again!
Wen Yan: “…”
Now she can't wash herself clean even if she jumps into the Yellow River.
"You just woke up now. Everything just now was just a dream, do you know? Otherwise, I will kill you!" Wen Yan couldn't convince the other party, so she had to threaten him.
After making the threat, without waiting for Ying Zhilin's answer, she simply frowned, stood up, put on her clothes, and then hid behind the screen to wash up.
Ying Zhilin looked at her flustered expression, touched his lips lightly, but couldn't suppress the smile on his face.
So, when everyone was having breakfast, they found that Wen Yan was particularly irritable today.
Everyone held their breath and didn't dare to provoke her.
Fortunately, after breakfast, Meng Chifei came to pick her up and take her to the King of Thailand's Palace.
Think about what you want to do today.
Wen Yan suppressed all her little emotions.
She handed the Liu family to Ying Zhilin’s care: “I have things to do, so I’ll leave my family to you.
I should be able to come back and watch the dragon boat race with you this afternoon."
After Wen Yan finished explaining, he left the inn with Meng Chifei and headed towards the King of Thailand's Palace.
