Chapter 212 Confession Rejected
Daya is about to become someone else's daughter-in-law.
Lu Qiniang really couldn't bear to let her go.
To be precise, she couldn't bear to let any of her daughters get married.
I always feel that mother and daughter should be together for life.
"Don't worry, if you marry Jiang Xuan, you can visit her anytime if you miss her."
"I'm not going. If I went to that mansion, I wouldn't even know east, west, south, or north. Besides, wouldn't it be embarrassing for Daya if I went there?"
"No." Xiao Yan said, "I'll go with you."
"You're kidding again. Daya won't be getting married until the end of next year. It's not certain whether you'll be there by then! Xiao Yan, I've thought about it. If I make a lot of money, I'll use some of it to help you find someone through connections and see if you can get another official position. You can't keep hanging around like this with me."
It is said that women’s youth is fleeting, but isn’t it the same for men?
"In a few years, you will be old. Even if you have the chance, I'm afraid you won't be able to fight as well as the younger ones. I can't waste your good time."
Now we are counting on making money from firecrackers.
He took their whole family and soared into the sky, and everyone got what they wanted.
"Even if I get an official position, I am still Daya's father, and I am still...your husband." Xiao Yan looked at Lu Qiniang steadily.
"Please stop making trouble," Lu Qinniang said with an unnatural expression, "We both know what's going on. I know you're sentimental and feel that I helped you when you were in your most difficult time, so you should be responsible for me. No need, Xiao Yan, I'm sincere. I really don't want you to be responsible."
Xiao Yan pursed his lips.
"You're talking about Zhang Heyao. He's the one who should be responsible for me. I didn't even rely on him, so how could I rely on you? I know what's going on. Fish seek fish, shrimp seek shrimp, turtles love tortoises, and mung beans go with toads. What's the difference between us? You're sticking a flower in this pile of cow dung?"
Lu Qiniang laughed as she spoke.
"Xiao Yan, take care of yourself. Find a wife of equal status and have more children. If you feel bad about this, we can still treat each other as relatives. Just don't look down on me, a poor relative. I also hope that if I encounter any problems in the future, I will have someone to rely on. You said that before, I never dared to dream that I would know General Po Lu!"
"I don't want a man in my life. I just hope to make some money and find good families for my three daughters. When I get old, I can still have some land to support myself. When I die, I won't be in pain and won't be a burden to others. If that's all, God will treat me well."
Others have their own splendor, which is a world she cannot reach, and she will not try to reach it.
She just hopes to live a peaceful life.
"Have you never thought about finding another good man, having children, and supporting each other? Not everyone is as unfaithful as Zhang Heyao." Xiao Yan said with some difficulty.
He felt like something was blocking his throat, making him feel stuffy and uncomfortable.
Even though he already knew that this would be the result if he spoke out, he still couldn't help but try it.
He clearly told himself to take it slow, but as things got better, he became more and more panicked.
Xiao Yan gradually understood a truth day by day - although such a long time together did not make Lu Qiniang fall in love with him, he developed a deep attachment to her.
For him, separation was the pain of tearing her apart from his flesh and blood.
No matter who Lu Qiniang is with, that man is happy.
He wanted to monopolize that position.
"Why are you looking for that thing?" Lu Qiniang asked, "I've been in the Zhang family for so many years, and I've done everything I should have done. I can't do even a little more; but even so, I haven't earned Zhang Heyao's gratitude. Now I can't be as sincere to anyone as before, and I'm hurt. How many more decades do I have left in this life?"
She couldn't bear this hardship anymore. If it happened again, she was afraid she wouldn't be strong enough.
She's fine on her own.
Xiao Yan was silent for a long time.
He was tongue-tied and couldn't express himself clearly, so he couldn't make Lu Qiniang understand his feelings for her.
Today's temptation has undoubtedly failed.
He had no choice but to express his feelings to Lu Qiniang before she had the idea of being together forever.
Lu Qiniang never said that Zhang Heyao had wronged her.
But once bitten by a snake, one becomes afraid of ropes for ten years. The wound in her heart needs time to heal.
"No, I have to get up and figure out how much money I have left."
Lu Qiniang got up and dug out all the money she had saved from the corners.
She wished to leave two hundred taels for Daya.
This way, no matter whether you make a profit or a loss, you will always have some money in the bottom of the box.
But after taking out two hundred taels, she had too little left to make it work.
Lu Qiniang was in a dilemma.
"Invest it all." Xiao Yan made the decision for her. "If it doesn't work out, you can still borrow money from Yun Ting. I'll pay him back next year."
Lu Qiniang trembled, but she couldn't bear to leave.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and decided to keep one hundred taels and invest the rest.
Seeing her calculating over and over again, but each time the numbers seemed to be wrong, Xiao Yan said with a mixture of laughter and tears, "Qi Niang, you need to learn arithmetic well. I'll teach you when we close the shop."
"OK!"
The next morning, not long after Lu Qiniang got up, Doctor Hu arrived.
"Lao Hu, why are you here? Have you eaten? Have a bite."
Doctor Hu asked, "I heard someone say you wanted to make firecrackers to sell?"
"yes!"
"That won't do!" Doctor Hu said, "Isn't this just nonsense? You're not familiar with this. Have you forgotten how I lost all my money before? Look at you, you're already showing off just because you have a little money."
"I'm different from you. I'm not unlucky with money. Only when you say it's impossible do I feel safe!"
Doctor Hu: "...Can you listen to my advice? Just setting up a stall is fine. Don't mess around with that. What if you lose money later?"
"If you lose, you can earn it back." Lu Qiniang said, "Besides, can't you say a few nice words? Really."
"A dog bites Lu Dongbin, who doesn't know the kindness of a good person." Doctor Hu muttered.
"No, Lao Hu, you came to see me for something, right? It shouldn't be just to tell me not to do this, right?"
"Well, isn't Dujuan getting married next year? If your firecrackers are really good, please save some for me. I'm afraid you'll quit and lose money, and I'll have to buy more."
"Hahaha, that's what I told you. Got it, leave it to me. I'll make sure to arrange the best for my eldest niece."
"I'm giving you money, I'm not asking for it for nothing. I just heard it was pretty good, so I bought some for Du Juan. It's the only big thing in her life, so I won't let her down."
"Okay, I get it. Go and do your own thing. You're looking forward to seeing me do well!" Lu Qiniang laughed and said, "I'm sure I'll make a fortune!"
Doctor Hu walked away muttering to himself.
After dinner, Lu Qiniang couldn't wait to go to the warehouse to look for someone.
But when she arrived at the warehouse, she was dumbfounded.
