Song Yongren and his companions stayed here for many days. They learned more and more about the capital city.
Of course, they also had different thoughts.
This person is mainly Xia Niu, who saw the prosperity of the city and a life completely different from that of Hongqi Village.
Then some other thoughts came to her mind.
I remember living in Hongqi Village, toiling in the fields all year round.
After working yourself to the bone, you don't earn much money. And it's barely enough to feed yourself.
She tried her best, but she still couldn't make a good living. So, Xia Niu had long been tired of this kind of life.
I've been thinking about how to earn more money and change their lives.
Her ideas were good, but she had no way to improve herself, so she lived in this torment of having ideas but being unable to realize them every day.
Now, she had finally found a way. Naturally, she couldn't give up; she had to seize this opportunity.
So, when Song Yongren and Song Jianshe weren't paying attention, she secretly found Song Lili.
Looking at Xia Niu standing in front of her, Song Lili frowned deeply. It took her a long time to regain her composure.
"Is there something you need from my sister-in-law?"
Normally, if there's nothing wrong, Xia Niu tries to avoid talking to him.
So when Song Lili saw Xia Niu acting so strangely, she had a guess in her heart that Xia Niu probably needed her help with something.
Xia Niu is really pragmatic. She'll fawn over you when she's useful, but when she's not, she'll act like she's never known you at all.
However, this person was her elder brother's wife. In some ways, Song Lili was quite tolerant.
When Xia Niu heard Song Lili ask this question, her body stiffened. She hadn't expected Song Lili to guess the reason so quickly and ask it so bluntly.
However, now that Song Lili has asked, she doesn't need to think about what else to say.
Without beating around the bush, she asked directly, "Lili, do you have any way to get your older brother to stay in the capital as well?"
“I see you’re all doing a good job here. Why don’t you think of a way to find a job for your older brother too? So he can stay in the capital and settle down here in the future.”
Anyway, Xia Niu doesn't want to go back now; she's pinned all her hopes on Song Lili.
Song Lili wasn't actually surprised that Xia Niu would come up with such an idea.
After all, this person is not an honest person at all. It is impossible for him to calm down and live the same life as before in Hongqi Village after experiencing the differences in the capital.
This is also why Song Lili has been hesitant about whether or not to let Song Jianshe's family come to the capital.
He was afraid that Xia Niu's heart would never be able to return to what it was before. Sure enough, his guess was right. After seeing the bustling life in the capital, Xia Niu never thought about returning to her old life again.
Moreover, he took action and directly asked Song Li to help.
Song Lili frowned slightly, then stared intently at Xia Niu. "Is this your idea, or my older brother's?"
Xia Niu felt slightly uneasy because Song Jianshe had no idea about this. She had taken it upon herself to come to Sun Lili.
Because Song Jianshe might not want to stay in the capital, he still wants to go back to Hongqi Village.
After all these years, he had long been used to this lifestyle.
They worked hard from dawn till dusk every day, and never thought about changing their lives.
Therefore, Xia Niu was not sure whether Song Jianshe would agree to her idea.
However, she thought that she should first confirm with Song Lili. If Song Lili could come up with a solution, then even if Song Jianshe disagreed with her idea, he would consider it out of respect for Song Lili.
However, Song Lili's ideas were all based on Song Jianshe's ideas.
If Song Jianshe truly wanted to stay in the capital, she would definitely help him. However, if Song Jianshe didn't have that intention, Song Lili wouldn't presume to make a decision for him.
It's not that life in the countryside is bad, nor is life in the city necessarily good.
It depends on each person's thoughts and pursuits. Different thoughts lead to different choices, and different pursuits lead to different ultimate goals.
That's why Song Lili immediately asked whose idea it was.
Although Xia Niu felt uncomfortable, she immediately said, "Of course, this is the idea of both your older brother and me, otherwise I wouldn't have come to ask you, right?"
Song Lili was actually suspicious. If Song Jianshe had such thoughts, why did he have Xia Niu say it instead of himself?
If he said it himself, it would definitely be more effective than if Xia Niu said it. Song Li didn't believe that Song Jianshe was unaware of these things.
However, she did not refute what Xia Niu had just said, but simply looked at him with deep eyes.
“If this is my older brother’s idea, I will definitely try to find a way for him. But if my older brother doesn’t want to do it, I won’t force him. You should know what I mean, right?”
Song Lili didn't want to beat around the bush with Xia Niu, since they didn't care about formalities anyway.
They just haven't broken the ice yet. They both know in their hearts that neither of them will give the other a friendly look, nor will they say anything nice to save face for the other.
Sure enough, Xia Niu's expression turned sour after hearing Song Lili's words.
This was exactly what she feared, but unexpectedly, Song Lili's opening remarks described the very situation she least wanted to face.
But she had no way to help; if Song Lili didn't want to, then she was truly powerless.
Over this period of time, she also noticed that among these people, there seemed to be a subtle connection with Song Lili at the center.
People listen to her, and often they simply follow her advice.
This put Xia Niu in a difficult position. Even if he went to someone else, Song Lili would probably find out eventually.
Ultimately, the person who makes the final decision is probably Song Lili.
With no other option, Xia Niu could only force a smile. "I understand what you mean. I think you probably don't really believe me either."
"Then, I'll have your older brother tell you about this."
Now she can only try to persuade Song Jianshe. If Song Jianshe agrees with her idea, then the matter can be settled in the end.
Wasn't that what Song Lili meant just now? If Song Jianshe asked, she would definitely help. But if Xia Niu asked, she definitely wouldn't help.
Thinking of this, Xia Niu gritted her teeth, but there was nothing she could do. She hated Song Lili intensely and was also very unwilling to accept it.
