Chapter 82 She's Just Being Sentimental (2/2)



Liu Nian didn't say anything, but just smiled and nodded. Then she reached out her hand to Su Xu and said, "Let's go home. I'm tired."

The news has been successfully released, and Liu Nian plans to relocate the factory.

Then she waited for the fish to bite.

"Sister Nian, you really have guts. You changed it just like that." Zhang Sufeng sat at her desk, reading a book for a long time. When she looked up, she felt a soreness in her neck and rubbed it.

"Then all the wages for these past few days have been wasted." Zhang Sufeng felt a pang of heartache and couldn't help but complain, "Is Old Madam Hu trying to cause trouble?"

Liu Nian shook her head. "Who knows?" She was just guessing; it all depended on whether the person who wanted to cause trouble was in a hurry.

"Don't worry about me, you should focus on your studies." Liu Nian stared at Zhang Sufeng and said, "Once you get into university, I want to see how the Wu family turns around and grovels before you."

Just thinking about it made her feel better. Zhang Sufeng pursed her lips, lowered her head, glared at her sore eyes, and forced herself to continue studying.

The room was very quiet, with the occasional sound of Zhang Sufeng writing.

Suddenly, there was a loud knock on the door, startling the two of them, who both looked over.

"Is Nian'er home?" The voice was clearly Hu Shi's, followed by Sun Xiaomei's voice, somewhat reproachfully, "Grandma, why are you bothering Nian'er again?"

"Oh dear, my husband appeared in my dream again and told me how to break the curse. I was just thinking of ways to minimize Nian's losses, wasn't I?" Madam Hu was quite anxious. When Liu Nian reached the door, she was raising her hand, about to knock again.

As soon as the door opened, Madam Hu said hurriedly, "Nian'er, we don't need to change our address!"

"Then let's go inside and talk." Liu Nian stepped aside and invited Hu Shi and Sun Xiaomei into the courtyard.

Before even entering the house, Madam Hu grabbed Liu Nian's hand and patted it, saying impatiently, "My husband came again last night and said that my relative said that as long as you treat the descendants of the Hu family well, he won't hold it against you for causing trouble for them."

Liu Nian raised an eyebrow and looked at Sun Xiaomei, who gave an awkward laugh and said, "My grandma is old and talking nonsense."

"What nonsense am I spouting!" Mrs. Hu was so anxious she almost jumped up on the spot. "Your grandfather was wearing the red gown we wore at our wedding, I saw it clearly! He was standing right outside the mosquito net, I heard it all clearly!"

"You can't disbelieve in these things! Don't you burn paper money for your elders during festivals? Isn't it because you want them to be well down there and to bless your children with peace and safety?"

Hu spoke with great conviction and appeared so sincere that Liu Nian didn't think she was lying.

Several people went into the house, Zhang Sufeng called out to Grandma Hu and then went outside, leaving only the three of them.

"Then tell me, how am I supposed to settle the descendants of the Hu family?" Liu Nian looked at Hu Shi and then glanced at Sun Xiaomei.

Sun Xiaomei shifted her body, intending to stand up, but quickly sat back down, steadying herself before saying, "Sister Nian, don't listen to my grandma's nonsense."

Madam Hu clicked her tongue. "What are you saying? I'm only doing this for Nian'er's own good. If Nian'er builds the factory recklessly and something bad happens, the losses will be enormous!"

“Nian’er, listen to my advice.” After thinking for a moment, Madam Hu said, “Just arrange for my children to work in your factory. With the descendants of the Hu family, our ancestors will surely protect us.”

"Oh." Liu Nian smiled gently and looked at Sun Xiaomei.

Sun Xiaomei opened her mouth, but didn't say anything.

"Okay, I understand." Liu Nian stood up, supporting her back, and said, "I'll think about it and then I'll give you a message in a couple of days."

After seeing the Hu family off, Liu Nian's expression changed.

“It’s obvious that the Hu family wants to get into the factory!” Zhang Sufeng walked over. “I’ve been eavesdropping for a while, and this old lady Hu certainly knows how to make excuses!”

"If you put them in the factory, everyone in the entire General Village will come looking for you, saying their ancestors are buried down there!" Zhang Sufeng was furious, her face flushed red, and she sat down angrily.

Liu Nian smiled gently, "How could I possibly let them have their way?"
