Chapter 78 They're all so old, divorce is so shameful!
Today is the day to deliver lotus root seeds.
Yan Sui and her people waited early in the morning, ready to plant the lotus roots as soon as they arrived.
She looked around but didn't see Aunt Ruan.
Old Mrs. Zhao actually knew what was going on, so she mentioned it to her.
“I stood at the door last night and overheard a few words; it sounded like they were getting a divorce.”
Yan Sui hadn't expected it to be this serious.
"That Aunt Ruan..."
Grandma Zhao shook her head. "This has nothing to do with you. It's Lao Gao and the others who went too far."
He even wants to kick his wife of several decades out of the house. What right does he have to say that?
Their house was built through the joint efforts of the couple.
If they really get divorced, they should each get half.
Just as Yan Sui was feeling worried, she saw Aunt Ruan rushing over.
Looks like...he's in a pretty good mood?
Why does everyone look at me like that?
Yan Sui shrugged. "I thought you weren't coming."
“Planting lotus flowers is a big deal, so of course I have to come and help. I just found several dead chickens in the orchard, their internal organs had been emptied out.”
That's why it was delayed for a short while.
Yan Sui's expression was somewhat serious. "I'll go back and check the surveillance footage."
It was probably attacked by wild animals.
Song Yuxia was the last to arrive, followed by newly recruited temporary workers, whom she assigned tasks to in an orderly manner.
Yan Sui glanced at Granny Zhang and lowered her voice, "Why is she here?"
Did Song Yuxia recruit her?
"I didn't call for her, but she insisted on coming along, and I couldn't stop her."
Song Yuxia and Granny Zhang didn't get along, so there was absolutely no way she would invite her.
Granny Zhang stepped forward with a fawning smile, "Yan Sui, I'll help too."
Yan Sui sized her up. "Just helping out, no money required?"
“How can that be? I’m not stupid! You have to pay someone else to do the work, so it’s better to give it to me than to someone else,” Granny Zhang said shamelessly.
The faces of Old Lady Zhao and the others all showed mockery.
This is a scheme to force Yan Sui to hire her to work.
Yan Sui was too busy to pay attention to her, and only said, "Grandma Zhang, you can do whatever you want, but let me make this clear first, I won't pay you if I don't ask you to come."
Then, he went over to arrange for people to do the work.
To facilitate the sale of cut flowers later, different varieties of lotus are planted in different areas.
She paid people to do the work, so there was no reason for her to do it herself.
Once everything was arranged, she prepared to go back.
Out of the corner of my eye, I spotted Aunt Ruan and went over to chat with her for a few minutes.
"Did Gao Wen cause trouble for you when he got home last night?"
Aunt Ruan's smile froze. "Oh dear, how could I not make a fuss?"
But we're all adults; just because you make a scene doesn't mean others have to follow your logic.
"I heard from Grandma Zhao that..."
"What did you say? That I'm getting a divorce?"
Yan Sui nodded, "But it shouldn't be that bad, right? It's not that serious yet."
Aunt Ruan chuckled, "He wouldn't dare divorce me, don't worry."
Yesterday, she insisted on dragging him to get a divorce, which intimidated them instead.
Gao Wen returned to the city early in the morning and dared not mention the land again.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. If he really wants a divorce, I'll divorce him!"
These words happened to reach Peng Xiufang's ears, and her expression changed drastically.
"Sister Ruan, what are you doing? You're already so old, getting a divorce is so shameful."
Aunt Ruan disagreed with her and clicked her tongue.
"Getting married isn't shameful, so why is getting divorced shameful? As long as it makes your life better, it's not shameful."
After saying that, she took a basket of lotus roots and went downstairs.
Peng Xiufang stared blankly at Aunt Ruan's figure, feeling that her words were utterly outrageous.
How can a woman bring up divorce?
"Auntie, what are you thinking about?"
Remembering that Yan Sui was still nearby, Peng Xiufang quickly reminded her, "Don't listen to what Aunt Ruan said just now, it's all nonsense."
Yan Sui: "...It's not entirely nonsense, there's some truth to it."
However, she didn't expect to persuade Peng Xiufang, so she waved her hand and left.
In the countryside, when you hire someone to do chores, you have to provide meals, so she has to go to town to buy groceries.
Sui Liyuan wiped her hands and stood up. "Would you like your aunt to come along?"
"No need, it's just grocery shopping, I'll be right back."
Yan Sui rode her tricycle and arrived at the town's vegetable market without incident.
Sui Liyuan was very familiar with the aunties at this stall, and she helped Sui Liyuan become familiar with them as well.
When you buy groceries from them, the aunties will always give you some scallions, cilantro, or something similar.
I'm planning to treat everyone to a nice meal today, so I need to buy some seafood.
Seafood doesn't need many seasonings; freshness is all that matters, and the cooking method is simple.
She emerged from the market with both hands full of bags.
Just as Yan Sui put her things down, she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of her eye.
She looked up and saw Fu Yansheng get into a black car.
It's still a luxury car.
She squinted and caught sight of a woman in the back seat.
Although they were quite far apart, she felt that the woman looked somewhat familiar.
Yan Sui and Fu Yansheng exchanged a glance.
Yes, she was certain that Fu Yansheng had already seen her.
However, he coldly withdrew his gaze, and the black car quickly drove away.
Yan Sui pouted and took out her phone to send a message to Jiang Yeling.
Yan Sui: [I saw him get into a woman's car, and it was an expensive luxury car. What does that mean?]
Jiang Yeling replied quickly, again sending a voice message.
"What does that mean? It means that this woman, who is richer than you, made her move before you could."
"If you're not exaggerating and have normal aesthetic sense, with his looks, people would be lining up to date to date him."
"Don't be sad. Beautiful things are expensive, let alone men."
Yan Sui said softly, "I'm not sad. Gui's problem isn't his; it's my problem."
She shook her head and sighed, then rode her tricycle home.
And at this moment, in the car.
Although Secretary An was sitting in the car, she had keen intuition and strong insight.
I spotted Yan Sui immediately and caught her gaze.
She usually interacted most with Qujiang, so she naturally knew about Fu Yansheng and Yan Sui's affair.
"Mr. Fu, it seems that Miss Yan Sui has misunderstood."
She was accompanying Fu Yansheng to a meeting today, so she sat in the back seat to make it easier to discuss matters.
Fu Yansheng slowly buttoned his cufflinks, and Yan Sui's image flashed through his mind.
"It's alright."
Secretary An smiled and teased, "Girls are very sensitive. If we don't explain things clearly now, she'll hold a grudge later."
Fu Yansheng kept his eyes straight ahead, his profile looking cold and indifferent.
"unnecessary."
Secretary An was taken aback. Had she misunderstood?
But that makes sense.
Fu Yansheng is a man of his word. If he had feelings for Yan Sui, he wouldn't have broken off the engagement in the first place.
But she noticed that this Miss Yan Sui seemed to have a bit of a thing for President Fu.
She couldn't wait to see if there would be any further developments between the two.
