After dinner, the two brothers Lingchuan and Lingjiang sat in the yard talking, while Yun Mo and Ling Chunhua washed green dates by the well.
"Brother, Momo and I have discussed this, and we are going to do something big this time..."
After listening to Ling Chuan's ideas and plans, Ling Jiang puffed on half of his pipe before speaking.
"Chuanzi, your thoughts and ideas are all good, but I won't get involved with you. I'm already quite content to make three or five dollars a day."
"Brother, why don't you think about it again? There's no rush to give me an answer today."
Ling Jiang smiled and shook his head, looking up at his daughter playing by the well, his eyes full of kindness.
"Chuanzi, we are brothers, I will not hide it from you, I think this business is too risky, I am worried that the goods will be stuck in my hands, on the other hand, your sister-in-law has such a temper, I am really afraid that it will implicate you again. Now it's good, doing some small business, I can make money and take care of the family, I don't ask for anything else."
Seeing that his elder brother had made up his mind, Ling Chuan didn't want to persuade him any further.
Any business has risks, and he wouldn't dare to guarantee that he could make 100% profit.
After talking about business, Ling Chuan started to care about Ling Jiang's family affairs again, "Brother, it's not a good idea for you and sister-in-law to be so stalemate all the time..."
Ling Chuan's next sentence was originally intended to persuade his elder brother to take some time to bring Li Li and her son back, but when he thought of what his wife said, he swallowed his words back.
Ling Jiang knocked the ash off his pipe calmly, "Your sister-in-law is the kind of person who wants to open a dyeing factory if she is given some color. Don't bother with her. She will come back when she figures it out. To be honest, your sister-in-law is not at home during this period, so I can be alone with Chunhua."
After finishing his cigarette, Ling Jiang packed up and prepared to take Ling Chunhua home.
Yun Mo took half of the things Ling Jiang brought and quietly put them into Ling Chunhua's schoolbag.
After seeing Ling Jiang and his daughter off, Ling Chuan told his wife that Ling Jiang refused to do business with him.
Yun Mo was both surprised and not surprised. Ling Jiang was a down-to-earth person who didn't aim too high, which was why she was willing to help him wholeheartedly.
However, if Lingchuan wants to expand the business, he cannot do it alone, he needs to find a helper.
Ling Chuan already had a candidate in mind, "Momo, I plan to find Zhou Xiaowei to work for me."
"Zhou Xiaowei?"
"Well, his family also lives on the old street."
Ling Chuan briefly recounted the story of Zhou Xiaowei's injury on the construction site. "Xiaowei injured his waist and legs at the beginning, but now his injuries have basically healed. He can't do heavy work, but he has no problem doing light work such as sorting goods and cleaning.
The Zhou family helped me and my elder brother a lot in the past, and now that his family is in trouble, I want to lend a hand if I can. Although Zhou Xiaowei is young, he is diligent and down-to-earth, and he is reliable. "
Yun Mo had no objection to this. It was just hiring a worker, not looking for a partner, so there was no need to be too picky.
She casually inquired about the other party's situation, "How old is Zhou Xiaowei? Has he ever been to school?"
"I've graduated from elementary school and will be 16 next month."
An elementary school diploma is enough, and he can read and write. The only problem is that he is a little young. But it is not a big problem. He can work as a temporary worker first, and it will not be too late to sign an employment contract when he turns 16.
Yun Mo looked at the man. "He can't work on the construction site at his age, right? He was injured. Didn't the developer hold you, the contractor, responsible?"
It would be fine if nothing goes wrong with illegal labor employment, but if something does happen, the foreman will be held accountable immediately.
Ling Chuan pursed his lips slightly, hesitating whether he should tell the truth to his wife.
What if his wife gets angry and wants to divorce him? But he doesn't want to deceive his wife, because that would make him look like a jerk.
Yun Mo was not a curious person. Seeing the man's tangled expression, she said, "If you don't want to talk about it, forget it. I'm just asking casually."
Ling Chuan thought his wife was angry, and said hurriedly: "It's not that I don't want to say it, I just don't know how to say it."
"Just say what you want to say."
"Momo, can you promise not to be angry?"
Yun Mo looked at him and said, "If you are telling the truth, I won't be angry. But if you dare to lie to me..."
Yun Mo made a gesture of wiping her neck, "This is what will happen to you."
After getting the guarantee from his wife, Ling Chuan told Yun Shixian the whole story of how he had asked Yun Shixian for help because of Zhou Xiaowei's injury and how he finally agreed to the deal with Yun Shixian.
After that, Ling Chuan hurriedly explained, "Momo, I hadn't met you at that time, and I didn't know you were so good. Now I'm especially glad that I agreed to your adoptive father, otherwise I would definitely regret it."
Upon learning that there was such a secret behind her marriage to Ling Chuan, Yun Mo was at a loss for words.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
I’m not angry, but I’m not very happy anyway.
Feeling unhappy, she couldn't help but choke the man with words, "What is there to regret? Without me, you might be able to marry someone better."
"No, I won't marry anyone else!"
There will be no one better than you, Ling Chuan thought silently.
"A man's words are deceiving! Are you going to be single for the rest of your life?"
Ling Chuan pursed his lips slightly, with an inexplicable persistence on his stern face, "Anyway, I won't marry another woman."
Yun Mo originally wanted to tease him a few more times, but the plot of the original book suddenly came to her mind.
In the original novel, after Ling Chuan divorced the original owner, he took the original owner's son and became a business tycoon after several years of hard work. It seemed that he did not remarry, but raised his son alone.
Thinking of this, Yun Mo did not feel happy, but felt depressed and uncomfortable.
Ling Chuan didn't know what she was thinking and thought she was unhappy because of what he said, so he clumsily coaxed her, "Momo, no matter what the reason is, we are married. This is fate, and it was arranged by God a long time ago."
That's your fate with the fake daughter, not with me! Seeing his wife's cold face, Ling Chuan became even more unhappy. He thought he had said something wrong, and racked his brains and said, "Before you, I never thought about getting married. After you, my wife in this life will only be you, not anyone else."
"Then let me ask you, if I died at a young age, would you remain a widow for me?"
"Momo, don't curse yourself like this."
Seeing the man's face darken, and he exuded a cold aura, he was obviously angry about what she said, so Yun Mo had no choice but to say, "I mean if, for example, you just need to answer whether it will happen or not."
Ling Chuan couldn't answer because he had never thought about it and didn't dare to think about it.
Because his mind is now full of his wife every day. He can't help thinking of her no matter what he does. He wants to see her all the time and is worried that she will be bullied. Only when she is under his nose will he feel at ease and happy.
