"Comrade, you want half a duck, right? I'll chop it for you!" Peng Cuiying stood behind Yang Benya's counter, directly taking Lin Xiaohui's place and greeting the customer.
Lin Xiaohui frowned, not wanting to have too much contact with her, but she was also worried that with so many customers present, if she and Peng Cuiying had a falling out, it would also affect the shop's business.
"Sister Lin, hurry up and chop the duck! What are you standing there for? Lots of customers are waiting!"
After weighing and collecting the money, Peng Cuiying noticed that Lin Xiaohui hadn't cut the duck, so she quickly called out to her.
Lin Xiaohui glanced at the queue outside and knew this was not the time to argue with Peng Cuiying, so she quickly picked up her knife and started chopping the duck.
Zheng Yulan glanced at Peng Cuiying and saw that Peng Cuiying was indeed just helping them greet customers and weigh their items, without causing any trouble. Since Lin Xiaohui didn't say anything, she didn't say anything either, and just quickly and efficiently did her own thing.
...
"Ouch!" After all the ducks and duck products she had prepared for the day were sold out, Peng Cuiying groaned, rubbing her back. "Sister Lin, your business is good, but it's too tiring. I've been helping out here for half a day, and my back is killing me."
"Jianguo hasn't come to the store either, how are you all managing to keep busy?"
Lin Xiaohui was originally a gentle person. Before, because of Jiang Qiaoqiao's matter, she was able to confront Peng Cuiying without any scruples.
But now, since the Jiang family gave them 20,000 yuan when Yang Minghui got into trouble, Peng Cuiying has helped them for half a day, no matter what.
She couldn't bring herself to say anything since she was being polite.
He just smiled and said, "This is quite tiring for us. Thank you for your help today."
Peng Cuiying was quite sensible at this moment, and quickly waved her hand, saying, "What trouble? Qiaoqiao is your daughter and my daughter too. We are family. Isn't it only right for family members to help each other?"
Lin Xiaohui had already chopped up the duck she had left behind and put it together with the half bag of vegetables she had left behind. She politely handed it to Peng Cuiying and said, "Thank you for your help when my husband had his accident. Please take this duck and the braised vegetables back with you."
If you like the taste, you can come anytime.
Peng Cuiying was a woman who loved to take advantage of others. While she complained about the things Lin Xiaohui gave her, she still carried them with her.
She also took Lin Xiaohui's hand with one hand and said in a painstaking manner, "Sister Lin, the reason I came here today is actually to discuss something with you."
Upon hearing her words, Lin Xiaohui instantly became so alert that the hairs on her body stood on end.
"Sigh!" Peng Cuiying frowned and sighed. "Actually, I'm also worried about Qiaoqiao. Look, Huo Beixiao is now a big boss of a cement factory, and he's said to be doing some business in the provincial capital."
I heard he's been going to the provincial capital every few days, not only staying out late into the night, but sometimes not even coming home at all.
"How can this couple live like this? They've been married for over half a year, and Qiaoqiao's belly hasn't shown any signs of pregnancy. Look at Ranran, who got married at the same time as Qiaoqiao, her belly is already big."
Now that Huo Beixiao is making money again, it's inevitable that some women will throw themselves at him. What if Huo Beixiao loses control and Qiao Qiao can't handle it?
The more Peng Cuiying talked, the more worried she seemed about her daughter.
What she said was exactly what Lin Xiaohui had been worried about, and now that she looked at her, she quickly empathized with her.
"Yes, that's exactly what I've been worried about!"
If she wasn't worried, she wouldn't have secretly gone to find medicine to make chicken soup for Huo Beixiao and Jiang Qiaoqiao.
Peng Cuiying's eyes darted around.
Jiang Jiahua was right. As long as she pretended to be doing what was best for that little bitch Jiang Qiaoqiao, Lin Xiaohui would definitely take the bait.
Peng Cuiying held Lin Xiaohui's hand and said, "Sister Lin, I've actually thought about this. The main problem for Beixiao and Qiaoqiao right now is that Beixiao is too busy with his business. He can't take care of anything else besides his business."
"If they sell the cement plant, Bei Xiao won't be so busy anymore, and it'll be only a matter of time before we can have a grandson."
Lin Xiaohui felt that something was off about Peng Cuiying's words, but she also felt that there was some truth to them.
He simply said, "Such a big factory, how can it be sold off so easily? Even if Beixiao really wanted to sell, where would they find a suitable buyer?"
Seeing that Lin Xiaohui had taken the bait, Peng Cuiying's eyes showed even more smugness and scheming.
"Sister Lin, I have something to tell you..."
She told Lin Xiaohui about the Jiang family's desire to buy the cement factory. Of course, when she told her, she emphasized that it was her eldest son, Jiang Yongxian, who had specifically mobilized wealthy people in Beicheng to buy it for his sister's sake.
After saying that, she didn't forget to tempt Lin Xiaohui with benefits, "Sister Lin, let me tell you, our Yongxian, in order for Qiaoqiao to live a peaceful life in the future, negotiated the price with that Boss Jiang to 800,000."
I heard that Bei Xiao bought this factory for 200,000 yuan and made a profit of 600,000 yuan by reselling it. Qiao Qiao and the others couldn't afford that even in several lifetimes, don't you think?
"Eight... eight hundred thousand!!!"
Lin Xiaohui was so shocked by the number that she stammered.
Such a large number is unimaginable, even for toilet paper, let alone money!
Peng Cuiying pressed her advantage, saying, "Sister Lin, I won't hide it from you, you know that Qiaoqiao has a problem with me and his father."
Her father and older brother had talked to her about this, but she always felt that we were trying to harm her and refused to help persuade Beixiao.
She listens to you the most, so you should try to persuade her.
Although her father and I have wronged her in many ways in the past, we genuinely wanted what was best for her. This was an opportunity that would never come again, and her father, brother, and I didn't want her to regret it later.
Lin Xiaohui thought silently for a long time, then nodded resolutely, "Okay, I'll try to persuade Qiaoqiao about this."
Peng Cuiying's smile instantly became even brighter, "Big sister, I knew you were just like us, wholeheartedly concerned for Qiaoqiao's well-being."
Sister, before the cement factory is sold, please don't tell Qiaoqiao. I begged you to persuade her. Qiaoqiao is so concerned about us…”
Lin Xiaohui nodded and said, "Don't worry, I understand."
