Chapter 64 Rejection for Him
Lu Qiniang thought Liu Xing could pull out some weapons.
As a result, this guy took out a black face towel and handed it to Xiao Yan.
"Brother Xiao, cover your face so no one can recognize you."
"Why?" Xiao Yan asked Lu Qinniang's confusion.
"You used to be General Po Lu, but now you're fighting for territory with us, it's a bit... cheap..."
"No problem." Xiao Yan didn't answer, but stood up and said, "I'll go see what's going on. Qi Niang, you guys go to sleep first, no need to wait for me."
Lu Qiniang wanted to say something, but finally swallowed her words.
After Xiao Yan followed Liu Xing out, she murmured, "How did life become like this? Sigh."
Xiao Yan could only go to "fight in a group", and she felt regretful.
"Other people are fighting, but if dad goes there, it doesn't necessarily mean they are fighting," said Daya.
After dinner, Lu Qiniang couldn't sleep, so she sat on the edge of the kang holding Ah Huang in her arms, in a daze.
She was like a spinning top whipped by reality, so busy that she couldn't stop and didn't even have time to be sad.
Now that it is late at night and I am alone, the past memories come to my mind uncontrollably.
When she heard footsteps, she immediately said, "Xiao Yan, you're back?"
"No, mother, it's me." Daya opened the curtain and came in. "Are you still awake?"
"Why aren't you asleep?" Lu Qiniang asked, "Are your sisters asleep?"
"They're all asleep." Daya sat down next to her, "I wanted to come over and talk to you for a while."
"Come." Lu Qiniang thought she was going to talk about Hu Tou, and her eyes looked at her with pity.
But Daya came to care about her feelings.
"Mom, I know you're sad. If you're sad, don't keep it in. Cry if you want to, make a scene if you want to. After you're done, forget it completely."
"Sad?" Lu Qiniang bent her knees, wrapped her arms around her calves, and rested her face on them. "Sad? I don't know if I'm sad or not. I just feel like I'm dreaming."
She felt like she wasn't awake yet.
"I think Xiao Yan is better than Zhang Heyao in everything." Daya said.
She hoped that Xiao Yan could help her mother get over the emotional pain.
In fact, Xiao Yan was doing this quietly.
“They’re all amazing people.”
"The only difference is that Xiao Yan values friendship, while Zhang Heyao is ruthless. Mother, why don't we set up two tables so that everyone knows about your relationship with Xiao Yan and Zhang Heyao will completely give up, so that he won't harass you again in the future."
Lu Qiniang was stunned, then quickly waved her hands: "Of course not! We can't make dumplings for a plate of vinegar. We can't use our kindness to threaten Xiao Yan just for Zhang Heyao's opinion."
She can tell which end is heavier and which is lighter.
How can good people suffer because of a bad person?
"Mom, he's willing. I asked him."
"Hey, kid, why are you asking Xiao Yan? Xiao Yan is not someone who refuses anyone. He is always friendly and easy to talk to. Of course, it's embarrassing to refuse. Oh, no, I have to explain everything to him when he comes back tonight. Don't let him misunderstand."
Because of this incident, Lu Qin's mother was too embarrassed to see Xiao Yan again.
Daya smiled but said nothing.
She held the needle and thread in her hand, doing needlework, and accompanied Lu Qiniang to wait for Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan waited until after midnight before returning.
"Are you okay?" Lu Qiniang got down from the kang, looked her up and down, and even patted her shoulder and touched her arm. "Are you okay?"
"I didn't participate in the fight." Xiao Yan said with a smile.
"So the matter is resolved?"
"Solved."
"No fighting, just talking and it was solved?" Lu Qiniang looked admiring.
Xiao Yan nodded.
"Tell me, how can I praise you so much? Daya, you see, educated people are just different. No, I have to learn a few more words too..."
The smarter you are, the better.
Xiao Yan briefly explained the matter.
In fact, it means arriving at a big ship and looking for people to move the cargo down.
There were many forces at the dock, and the two gangs were competing for work, which escalated the situation into an armed brawl.
After Xiao Yan arrived, he negotiated with the other party's boss and calmed the situation down.
"It has to be you." Lu Qiniang praised him highly.
In the next few days, Xiao Yan was very busy, leaving home early and not returning until late, often coming back after curfew.
Lu Qin's mother was also waiting for him.
On this day, he rarely stayed at home, saying that Liu Xing would bring Tong to his house for dinner.
Lu Qiniang hurriedly asked Daya to prepare wine and food.
Lu Qiniang was originally worried that she would not be able to communicate with Tong, but after meeting her, she found that she was more cheerful and talkative than herself.
The two had a very pleasant conversation.
Lu Qiniang also liked Tong's daughter Hongyu very much, and she held her in her arms and was reluctant to let go.
"My San Ya has grown up in a blink of an eye. I still remember that she was as big as Hongyu. I had to hold her every day and she would cry when I put her down. At that time, I wondered when she would grow up. But now that she has grown up, I think about how good it was to be a child." Lu Qiniang said with a smile.
"Your eldest daughter is already fourteen. In a few years, you'll be a grandmother." Tong smiled. "You have three caring daughters. What a blessing! If you can give birth to three sons with my brother Xiao, you'll be able to stand tall wherever you go..."
Lu Qiniang's smile suddenly became forced.
She gave birth to a son for Xiao Yan?
Damn it, I dare not even think about it.
Xiao Yan and Liu Xing set up a table on the ground and the two of them drank.
Liu Xing was praising Xiao Yan the whole time, praising him to the heavens and the earth, saying he was unique.
Lu Qiniang felt that she and Liu Xing had a lot in common on this point.
She also thinks Xiao Yan is amazing.
After three rounds of drinking, Liu Xing was drunk. He suddenly slammed the table, causing the wine glasses to fall over, which scared everyone.
"Brother Xiao, if we keep doing this, when will we ever get ahead? As the saying goes, a horse can't grow fat without night grass, and a man can't get rich without unexpected wealth. Brother Xiao, let's do something big!"
Lu Qiniang put down her chopsticks and stared at him intently.
Why did she feel that Liu Xing was not holding his fart well?
Xiao Yan remained calm as always, "Tell me about it."
"Brother Xiao, you must have heard about smuggled salt during these days at the dock..." Liu Xing said slyly, with a gleam in his eyes.
"No!" Lu Qiniang's face turned pale and she slammed the table angrily. "This is not okay! I don't agree!"
She said loudly, "Liu Xing, if you want to get involved in this, go find someone else. My husband can't do this! Xiao Yan, you are not allowed to agree to this. If you agree to this, I, I will not live with you anymore!"
She knew that Xiao Yan was working with Liu Xing and it would be difficult to break up with him.
Then she will be the bad guy and help Xiao Yan refuse.
She was also afraid, and Xiao Yan got carried away and really agreed.
Tong's eyebrows also raised, pointing at Liu Xing's forehead and cursing: "Are you ruining my good life? You're also smuggling salt, why don't you go to heaven! Just try to touch that thing!"
Liu Xing muttered quietly, "What do you women know? That stuff makes money fast! If I make a big profit, it will be enough for my whole life."
"Haha, if I send you in, you'll be finished with your life, won't you?" Tong sneered. "If you had Brother Xiao's ability, I wouldn't say anything to you. You're just a puffed-up toad, thinking you're a golden toad that spits out money, dreaming of that sweet dream every day!"
"This woman is crazy. Brother Xiao, ignore her and let's drink." Liu Xing felt a little embarrassed.
"Drink, drink, drink, what the hell! You become the Jade Emperor after drinking some horse urine! Come on, go home with me to sober up, don't embarrass yourself here." Tong grabbed Liu Xing's ear and walked out.
“It hurts, it hurts—”
Lu Qiniang felt relieved.
Fortunately, Tong is also a clear-headed person.
She needs to have a good talk with Xiao Yan about this issue.
