Chapter 120 Liang Xiulan's bad reputation spread to Lin County
Back at the spice shop, he quietly pulled Liang Xiujuan aside and said, "Get me a pound of sweet plum powder and a bottle of chili sauce later!"
Liang Xiujuan ate French fries and asked suspiciously, "What are you going to do?"
"What are you doing? Someone wants it!"
"Who wants it? Just let him buy it directly from the stall."
"She's busy and can't leave!"
"Oh, then tell my sister to send it off."
"Isn't your sister busy too?"
"I'll send it when she's not busy. My sister and my mom both told me to only manage the money, not the gifts!"
"If you don't send me, I will!"
"Then why don't you just pack it yourself and give it to someone else?"
Liang Xiujuan blinked her big eyes and looked at Liang Jianguo curiously, feeling that he was weird.
Liang Jianguo found that he couldn't communicate with her, so he could only wave his hand and give up.
Seeing Liu Guizhi's happiness, he pulled her aside and said, "Um... Caiju's stall is out of sweet plum powder, so let me bring some to her."
"Oh, where's the money? Give it to me!"
"Tsk, I forgot to collect it."
"Then go back again, collect the money and come over so I can install it for her!"
"well……"
Liang Jianguo sighed, turned his face away, hesitated for a long time, and finally told the truth.
"Today I wandered into her stall, had a bowl of noodles, and promised her I'd give her a pound of sweet plum powder and a can of chili sauce! I didn't charge her!"
As soon as she said this, Liu Guizhi raised her foot and stepped hard on the back of his foot.
He poked his head, gritted his teeth and couldn't say a word for a long time.
"You, you, you're going to piss me off to death!"
"Why are you wandering around like that? Our Lanlan said she had to pay for the seasonings herself! And you're so eager to give them to her!"
"Not only did you give me a snack stand, you also gave me seasonings! Why don't you become a philanthropist?"
She poked Liang Jianguo's head and scolded him for three minutes. Finally, she packed a pound of sweet plum powder and a bucket of chili sauce and threw them on the chopping board while cursing.
"Go home after you're done. Don't come here again. We don't need your help here anymore!"
"You're going to piss me off to death sooner or later!"
Liang Jianguo left with a dark face, picking up his things.
When a man speaks, he means what he says. He cannot go back on his word, especially in front of outsiders.
No matter how Liu Guizhi beat or scolded him, she still packed things for him and asked him to deliver them. She never gave him face in front of outsiders.
Liang Jianguo had a long face and went to Zhou Caiju's stall with things in his hands.
When he met outsiders, he smiled again.
She explained awkwardly, "Lanlan's business is so good that all the items for today are reserved. This is what I reserved for you in advance. That's all I have. You can use it first and come back for more if you run out."
When Zhou Caiju saw that it was only one pound, the smile on her face began to become unnatural.
"Okay, that's fine too. I'll just use it for now. Thank you, big brother."
"Well...we're all family, what are you thanking me for? Well, nothing else, I'll be leaving first."
"Okay, slow down."
Liang Jianguo waved his hand and went home with his head down.
Zhou Caiju asked doubtfully, "Huh? Aren't you going back to help her?"
"Well, I won't go. The three of them can handle it."
"Oh, fine. Just drive slowly."
As soon as Liang Jianguo turned around, Zhou Caiju's smile disappeared immediately.
"Tsk! We're a family, that sounds nice, but I can't bear to give you any more Ganmeifen."
"What kind of honest man are you, lying to me and thinking I don't know?"
"I took this little bit of seasoning and my wife sent me back. I'm such a loser."
"A whole family of stingy people, it's a wonder their daughter can marry well!"
This is human nature. The more you give her, the more dissatisfied she will be. If you give her a little less, she will think you are sorry for her.
People who are used to asking for things will feel like they are losing out if they get even a little bit of advantage.
In Liujia Village, Lin County, Liu Guizhi's brothers and sisters-in-law sat in a circle in the main room, looking worried.
"What's going on with Xiulan? Is she really hooking up with a rich guy and hanging out with Jiang Jinzhou?"
"I don't think so. How could Xiulan do such a thing?"
"Why not? It's all spread. Whenever I go out, people whisper to me about Guizhi's daughter... If she didn't exist, how could they spread the news?"
"Who do you think spread this?"
"How should I know? This has even reached my Dayou factory."
"Oh my god, this won't have any impact on Dayou, right?"
"What impact does that have? Just pretend you don't know him. He's married anyway. It's just that your Lijuan is dating someone now. I don't know if she knows."
"Tsk...ah...our sister is too soft-hearted. The man she finds is also a good-for-nothing, honest fellow. Xiulan is already in her twenties. They definitely can't control her!"
"No, I have to find time to talk to her again. I can't let Xiulan go astray!"
Liang Xiulan's uncle Liu Shuisheng slapped his thigh and stood up.
Aunt Zhang Hong waved her hand and asked him to sit down: "Alright, alright, you men should stay out of this kind of thing. I'm at home with nothing to do, I'll go tomorrow!"
Second aunt Li Qingtao also said: "Let's go together when the time comes."
"Okay, do you have anything to do tomorrow?"
"It's okay, shall we go tomorrow?"
"Yeah! Tomorrow!"
After discussing it, they made a few scallion pancakes, carried a basket of eggs, and went to Xiayao Village.
No one was home and the door was locked.
The two asked their next-door neighbors and found out that Liang Xiulan was now hanging out in town and usually didn't go home.
Like her, Liu Guizhi and Liang Xiujuan stayed in the town and rarely came back.
Only Liang Jianguo was at home. He worked in the fields all day and only came back at noon.
The two chatted with the neighbors for a while and then asked about Liang Xiulan's situation indirectly.
"It's time for this girl to get married, but I don't know if she's settled yet."
This immediately opened up the conversation, and several shoe-sole menders all came over and started talking about this and that.
"Oh... your niece is so beautiful and capable, there's no need to worry about her stability!"
"Yes, that Jiang family kid from Shangyao Village is crying and making a fuss about wanting to be with your niece!"
"It's not just people from Shangyao Village. Some time ago, I saw a driver coming here too.
There were so many people picking her up and dropping her off, and when the guy surnamed Jiang saw it, he got really mad! Then I don’t know what your niece said to him, but he was so happy that he just left."
"Hey, hey, hey, I heard that she found a rich guy in town who drives a three-wheeled vehicle. He wears a big gold chain and a suit. He looks very impressive and he's not bad either..."
Well, I was originally having my cake and eat it too, but now I’m on to a third one.
The sister-in-law came with a frown, not knowing what to say.
After a while, Liang Jianguo came back with a hoe on his back and hurried to greet his two sisters-in-law.
"Sister-in-law and sister-in-law, why are you two here?"
The two men smiled awkwardly, walked out of the crowd, and followed Liang Jianguo back home.
