Gu Nian was curious about when Gu Xin had quoted so many of her uncle's sayings, so she asked, "Xin Xin, when did your uncle say these? Did he tell you them?"
Gu Xin said, "Not long ago, Er Gouzi got into a fight with Zhang Xiaohu and his gang. Er Gouzi won, and then Zhang's aunt took Zhang Xiaohu to cause trouble. Er Gouzi's mother said that Er Gouzi couldn't fight at all, and that he was as skinny as a monkey, so how could he beat Zhang Xiaohu, who was as big as a calf? That's what my uncle said, telling Er Gouzi's mother not to be modest, lest Er Gouzi really think he's bad and that even if he can win, he can't win."
Everyone in the room: ...
Was Uncle Gu really helping his in-laws cause trouble for Er Gouzi's family, or did he genuinely believe that?
Madam Li said, "Based on my two meetings with Brother Gu, he is telling the truth and is not helping the Yue family. What do you think, Xiao Lian?"
Cai Xiaolian gave Madam Li a thumbs up: "Sister Luo, even though it's only been two meetings, you have a very good eye for people!"
Gu Nian sighed inwardly: Uncle, have you become a parenting expert again? Weren't you the author of life mottoes the last few times?
Gu Nian changed the subject to avoid her uncle, a devout follower, continuing to argue, and asked, "Aunt Luo, can Li Muyan mass-produce these small tubes?"
Madam Li said, "The child didn't say anything, he just said that you should make the product first so he can see it and then decide how to produce this small tube."
After saying that, Madam Li laughed again: "Niannian, you don't know, last time you sisters scared him. I invited him to come with me the next few times, but he wouldn't come. Knowing that I was coming to your house, he would close the courtyard gate in the morning and not let me in."
Gu Nian: "...So, Aunt Luo, does he still want me to take responsibility?"
Mrs. Li laughed heartily: "I guess he did want to, but he was afraid. He even asked if your family only has the four of you sisters, and if you have any other cousins. He'll definitely stay far away next time."
Gu Nian couldn't help but laugh: "Aunt Luo, you tell him that as long as he doesn't make me take responsibility, then my family, whether it's my own sisters, cousins, or other female relatives, will not tease him, absolutely not."
Madam Li: "Hahaha, okay, I will definitely pass on the message. That silly boy, he's just so strange, I don't know what to say. You all know his situation. I wanted to arrange a marriage for him as soon as possible. He didn't cooperate before, and he still doesn't cooperate now. We'll see what happens in the future."
Cai Xiaolian comforted her, saying, "Sister Luo, you can't rush your child's marriage. Besides, when fate comes, you can't stop it. It's best to let things develop naturally, so don't worry too much."
Madam Li smiled and said, "Don't worry, don't worry. Before, I was afraid that he wouldn't like girls and would prefer men. But after the matter of Nian Nian taking responsibility came up, I'm really not worried at all. As long as I know he likes girls, that's fine. I'm not in a hurry when he meets the right girl. She will appear eventually. Didn't my darling Xin Xin say that I'm still young and I'm not in a hurry to become a grandmother?"
...
Mrs. Li brought over lipstick tubes, and Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian began to think about how to sell the lipsticks.
Besides lipstick, there's also perfume. Should we sell it directly to the Li family as before, only caring about the product and not the packaging, or should they take charge of everything? They were undecided, so the whole family sat down together that evening to discuss it.
