Liu Fengying whispered a scolding to him: "How can an old man talk to his daughter-in-law like that?"
Su Guojun said, "To tell the truth."
Su Guojun said coldly, "You'll find out soon enough."
Liu Fengying finished cooking the fish, and her son and his family of three arrived. Sure enough, during the meal, Sun Huanping spoke up: "Dad, Mom, everyone says my sister is doing really well now, she's become a big boss. I just wanted to ask if it's possible to arrange for her brother to work in her factory?"
Su Guojun and Liu Fengying exchanged a glance.
Su Guojun said, "Your mother and I really can't discuss this matter. You should talk to your sister."
Sun Huanping knew she had no face in front of Su Xueli, so she flattered the old couple, "Dad, it's better to talk to you than to my sister. You are the head of the family. You can make a big difference with a stomp of your foot. Talking to you is more effective than talking to my sister."
Su Guojun wasn't fooled at all, but he didn't want to offend his daughter-in-law either. "This isn't my business to decide, because I don't understand the business she's in, I haven't invested a single penny in her, and I don't know anything about her situation, whether she needs people or not. You should talk to her about it. If she needs people, she'll ask for them herself. If she doesn't need people, we'll wait until she does."
These words were so well-chosen that Sun Huanping was speechless for a moment.
She secretly stepped on the man's foot, and Sun Yunlei looked at his father and asked, "Dad, when is my sister coming back?"
Su Guojun said, "I don't know either. You should go to her factory and look for her."
Su Xueli's factory is temporarily located in the courtyard where she rents a place. There are enough rooms to accommodate about ten workers, and the courtyard is big enough to hold several stacks of thatch and dry colored straw figurines.
Wei Mingshen taught Su Xueli the method in his mind: set up a net in the yard and put the dyed figurines on the net to dry.
This way it doesn't take up space, and because it's well-ventilated, it dries out quickly.
However, Su Xueli has already found a good location and is preparing to build a factory there. She will move there soon.
She doesn't plan to go out for the next few days; she needs to collect a large amount of thatch.
This is the best season for thatch, so she needs to hurry up and buy it, or find a place to store it.
In the afternoon, Su Xueli woke up from her nap and was sitting by the garden with a cup of tea, looking at the flowers and enjoying this moment of leisure.
Sun Huanping and Su Yunlei arrived, bringing a bag of apples.
Su Xueli gave her a cold look and greeted Su Yunlei behind her, "Brother, you're here."
No matter how useless your own brother is, he is still your own brother.
Sun Huanping's face darkened, but she quickly forced a smile: "Xueli, you haven't been home for several days, so your brother and I came to see you."
Su Xueli said coldly, "Just say what you want to say. I finally got a break, don't waste too much of my time."
These words carried weight, and the couple both blushed slightly.
Sun Huanping tried to get closer, saying, "Look at his aunt, your own brother and sister-in-law haven't even arrived yet, and you're already telling them to leave. What if they hear and laugh at you? Here, let me wash an apple for you."
She went to the hand pump to wash apples, leaving the brother and sister behind.
Su Xueli glanced at the chair next to her brother, gesturing for him to sit down, and then asked him, "Brother, you didn't come here today because you missed me, did you? Just say what you want to say. I'll do what I can and I won't if I can't."
