Chapter 121 Two Aunts Come to See Liang Xiulan
After closing the door, he dared to ask, "Jianguo, is what's being said outside true?"
Liang Jianguo was confused: "What did you hear?"
Zhang Hong put down the things in her hand and said, "I heard that Lan Lan is hanging out with that Jiang family kid and is also having an affair with a wealthy man in town. She even has a driver who picks her up and drops her off. What is their relationship?"
Liang Jianguo poured tea for the two of them and asked them to sit down.
"Sister-in-law, don't listen to what those people say outside. That rich guy in town is Jiang Jinzhou's friend. He's a fertilizer sales manager, not a sugar daddy."
"What about the person driving the car?" Li Qingtao asked.
Liang Jianguo patiently explained: "Lanlan is helping out at the tricycle factory. I don't know exactly what she does, but it seems like she's drawing or something.
I was busy with the tricycle factory those days and came back late, so the factory director asked his secretary to bring me back.
I had to get up early in the morning, and since my family didn’t have a car, I had to trouble someone to pick me up.”
"The villagers saw this and started spreading rumors."
After hearing this, the two of them finally felt relieved, but if they continued like this, it would not do.
Zhang Hong said, "It's unacceptable to keep spreading rumors about Lanlan. If the Jiang family knew about it, they wouldn't want a daughter-in-law like her. You have to come forward and clarify the matter."
Liang Jianguo got angry when this was mentioned.
"What else can I say? This rumor was spread by the Jiang family!"
"That tigress from the Jiang family went to our store a few days ago and made trouble. Hu Dabiao almost hit her, but luckily Jiang Jinzhou stopped her. Otherwise, she would have been sent to the hospital."
When the two heard this, they smacked their lips.
"I didn't expect the Jiang family to be such a mess. What would Lanlan do if she married into a family like this? She would definitely be bullied. You and Guizhi didn't try to persuade her to change?"
"I persuaded her, why not? I even asked the second son of the Cui family in Linhe to come and see her, but she ended up getting herself ruined. The matchmaker was from the same village as us, and we were so pissed off."
"Guizhi went to her house several times, giving her gifts and apologizing, and it took a lot of effort to ease the relationship."
Li Qingtao raised an eyebrow: "It's all exposed? What's going on?"
Liang Jianguo took a sip of water and added more water for the two of them before telling them what happened that day.
The two sisters-in-law slapped their thighs when they heard this: "Oh... this silly girl, how could she be like this?"
"After doing something like this, it's a good thing that no one pointed fingers at her and scolded her. This girl is really something, ah..."
Liang Jianguo lit a cigarette, took a puff, and sighed, "If you get stuck in a dead end, even ten oxen can't pull you back..."
"I can't control her, and her mother spoils her in everything. Sigh..."
Is this man complaining?
The two sisters-in-law looked at each other and picked up their teacups to drink water.
The relationship is all her sister's fault and has nothing to do with this man.
Not wanting to talk about this topic anymore, Li Qingtao continued, "I just heard you talk about a store. Did you open a store?"
"Yes, it's a spice shop, run by Lanlan. Her mother went there to help her. Xiaojuan is also there, collecting her payment."
"I had gone to help out for a few days, but Guizhi was worried that there would be no one to take care of the family, so she asked me to come back."
He had to say it in advance, otherwise his two sisters-in-law would get too excited and want to go. Then Liu Guizhi would complain about him, which would be so embarrassing.
Sure enough, the next moment the two sisters-in-law became interested in their store.
"Lanlan is really capable. Where is the store? We have nothing to do, so we'll go check it out later."
"Well, it's on Dingxiang Street. It's called Yizhilan Seasoning. It has the newest red door. You can see it everywhere."
"A seasoning store? Why did you think of selling seasonings?"
"Who knows? This girl always does what she wants."
"Okay, let's go check it out."
As Zhang Hong spoke, she stood up, and Li Qingtao followed closely behind.
Liang Jianguo quickly stood up and said, "Ah? Let's eat at home first."
"No, let's go see Guizhi and Xiulan, ask Lanlan what she thinks, and take a walk around your town."
"Okay then, I won't stay any longer. How did you get here? Do you want me to see you off?"
"No, we'll each ride a bike."
"oh……"
As they were talking, they had already arrived at the yard. They were both very surprised to see a new tricycle.
“Is this tricycle new?”
"Yes, Lanlan bought it at the tricycle factory."
The two looked at each other again, smiled and went out.
On the way, the two chatted casually.
"Guizhi was in the hospital a while ago. They spent so much money, and they still had money to buy a tricycle? Now they've opened a shop. Did they make a fortune?"
"Of course! He made a fortune quietly and didn't even dare to tell his parents."
"Maybe it's true what's been said outside, that she's hooking up with a rich man?"
"How could that be? Didn't Jianguo just say that he was Jiang Jinzhou's friend?"
"Not necessarily. Maybe he said this to fool Liang Jianguo."
"Alas... let's go and take a look first, let's not speculate."
The two rode their bicycles to Dingxiang Street, looked at the red door, and saw the Zhilan Seasoning Store.
The two men stood at the door, leaning straight into the cashier's face.
"Xiaojuan?"
Li Qingtao called out tentatively.
Liang Xiujuan quickly stuffed the money into the drawer. When she looked up, it was her aunt. She hurriedly called out, "Aunt, Second Aunt, why are you here?"
After shouting, she called towards the operating room: "Mom... Sister... My aunt and my second aunt are here..."
Liu Guizhi quickly put down the bowl in her hand and went out.
"Sister-in-law and sister-in-law, why are you two here? Come in and sit down."
Liu Guizhi waved to the two men, and they moved their bicycles a little before coming in.
At this time, Liang Xiulan had already come out and called out with a smile: "Aunt, Second Aunt..."
The two hadn't seen Liang Xiulan for a long time, and when they saw her again, they were a little hesitant to recognize her.
Li Qingtao looked her up and down, then narrowed her eyes and smiled: "Lanlan is really getting more and more beautiful. No wonder so many people are chasing her."
As soon as she said that, Zhang Hong bumped her arm. She was stunned for a second and quickly changed her words.
"I mean, Lanlan is so pretty, there must be a lot of people chasing after her."
Liang Xiulan just smiled and said nothing.
If her guess was correct, she must have heard some rumor and came up with it to confirm it.
Liu Guizhi pulled the two of them to the operating room at the back and started to take care of things enthusiastically.
"Have you eaten yet?"
"Not yet. I was planning to ask you to go eat with me on the street."
"No need for that. It's all ready. I'll make noodles for you two!"
Liu Guizhi opened the cupboard, took out a handful of noodles, turned on the fire, and prepared to cook the noodles.
The two looked around and said, "This store is well-designed. They sell things in the front and cook in the back. It's very convenient."
"That's right, this rattan chair, is it for resting?"
Liu Guizhi smiled and nodded: "There won't be many people around at noon, so let Xiaojuan watch over the front while I take a nap."
"Yeah, sure, that's convenient. Why did you think of opening a spice shop?"
While mixing the noodles, Liu Guizhi told the two of them about Liang Xiulan's shredded pork noodles and sweet plum noodles.
