Chapter 166: For the first time, I intuitively felt what it meant to be awake
Liang Xiulan frowned as she looked at the sweet potatoes piled up like a small mountain at the foot of the wall.
I squatted down and picked one up to take a look. It was wrinkled and almost looked like a dried sweet potato.
"Have you paid all the money?"
"I gave it to her on the spot!" Liu Guizhi's voice was shaking with anger.
When the man was determined, she couldn't persuade him at all.
Whenever she said no, Liang Jianguo would confront her and accuse her of being petty.
Liu Guizhi had been holding it in since around 3:00 p.m., but when she saw the hairy sweet potatoes, she instantly flew into a rage.
How can I bear this?
The sweet potatoes had been harvested and the money had been paid. Liang Xiulan looked at Liang Jianguo, who was so old that she couldn't bring herself to blame him.
Even though I was angry, I endured it.
"Alright, calm down. It's all settled now. There's no point in saying anything more."
"Jinzhou is here, don't make fun of yourself."
When the two heard that Jiang Jinzhou was coming, the anger on their faces immediately subsided.
Liang Jianguo quickly returned to his room to calm down. Liu Guizhi took two deep breaths to dispel all her depression.
"Why are you here so late? Let someone in quickly."
She forced a smile on her face and went out to greet him.
Jiang Jinzhou was calling Liang Xiujuan to get out of the car.
Seeing Liu Guizhi coming out, he quickly got out of the car and called out, "Auntie..."
"Hey, when did you come back?"
"This afternoon."
As he spoke, he lifted everything off the back seat.
Liu Guizhi smiled and said politely: "Oh, why are you carrying so many things? You are not a stranger. Don't buy anything next time you come."
"It's okay, I happen to have some at home."
"Okay, okay, come into the house..."
He enthusiastically pulled Jiang Jinzhou into the main room.
Liang Jianguo came out of the house carrying a teapot, and when he saw Jiang Jinzhou, a smile appeared on his face.
"Come in and have some tea."
“Hey!”
Jiang Jinzhou: These two people change their expressions so quickly. They just quarreled at the top of their lungs, but now they are so enthusiastic.
Are they treating him as an outsider or not?
With the two people's warm greeting, Jiang Jinzhou sat at home for more than 20 minutes before leaving.
Before leaving, he leaned over to Liang Xiulan's ear and whispered, "Do you need help with these sweet potatoes?"
Liang Xiulan said calmly: "Don't worry about it, I'll take care of it."
"Oh, come to me if you need help. I'm back to rest for two or three days this time."
Liang Xiulan blinked and pushed him out the door.
Jiang Jinzhou took the opportunity to hug her and didn't let go for a full half minute.
"Let's go!"
"Well, it's dark, so go slowly on the road."
Jiang Jinzhou waved his hand, stretched out his long legs, and rode away on his bicycle.
Liang Xiulan came back, took a look at the pile of sweet potatoes, and sighed deeply.
I returned to my room helplessly.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw Liang Xiujuan lying on the bed counting money.
She is actually counting money!!!
Where did she get so much money?
Liang Xiulan strode over and asked, "Where did you get this money?"
Liang Xiujuan sat up and hid the money behind her: "Brother Da Biao gave it to me!"
"Hu Dabiao?!!!" Liang Xiulan's eyes widened: "Why did he give you money, and give you so much?"
Liang Xiujuan pouted: "I said you didn't give me the money you earned, so he gave it to me."
"that's all?"
"Yeah, that's it. Just over 500."
"Five hundred?!!! He must have too much money to burn, right?" Liang Xiulan couldn't believe it.
With just one word from her, Hu Dabiao gave her more than 500 yuan. Why?
Something's wrong. Could this Hu Dabiao be...
The two of them are almost ten years apart in age, so he could be her uncle. No, she would never agree!
Liang Xiulan pointed at her and said seriously, "What did you two talk about today? Tell me everything!"
Liang Xiujuan clenched the money tightly in her hand and quickly retreated to the corner of the bed.
"Nothing much, just some random chat, all jokes."
"Really? He didn't say anything excessive to you?"
"No, really not..."
Liang Xiulan put her hands on her waist, feeling angry.
I'll have to teach Hu Dabiao a lesson later and not let him have any improper thoughts about her sister. It's impossible for him to have an old man eat young grass!
She took off her shoes and got on the bed, then said to Liang Xiujuan with a stern face, "Don't take his money from now on, okay?"
Liang Xiujuan looked unhappy: "Why?"
"You don't give me flowers, and you won't let others give me flowers. You can't be so overbearing as a sister."
At this time, Liang Xiulan finally understood the saying that girls should be raised in wealth.
She wanted the man if he paid her. What kind of thinking was that? This was wrong. She had to change her mind.
"You have no relationship with him, so why would he give you money? He must have an ulterior motive, don't you know that?"
Liang Xiujuan bit her lip, looking thoughtful, with a hint of dissatisfaction on her face.
"He's the owner of a fertilizer factory, he's got a lot of money, so what if he gives me some?"
Hearing this stubborn tone, Liang Xiulan became furious.
"No, it's for no reason. You can't take someone's money. You have to be grateful! If he has any intentions towards you, what will you do? Tell me."
"As a person, you need to know when to advance and when to retreat, don't you understand? Having a good relationship is one thing, but financial transactions are another!
Money and feelings can't be mixed together. If they get entangled, do you know the consequences? "
"Oh...I'm so mad!"
Looking at Liang Xiujuan's expression, she still looked unconvinced.
Liang Xiulan simply told her the whole thing.
"I'm telling you the truth. Hu Dabiao is not in a good mood today. He has intentions towards you. Can't you feel it?"
"He gave you money with ulterior motives. If you fall for it, your life will be ruined! Do you understand?"
In fact, Liang Xiujuan was as clear-headed as a mirror. As someone who was used to counting money, she understood what Hu Dabiao meant.
She had already noticed something different when she saw the look in Hu Dabiao's eyes.
She is already sixteen years old, how could she not understand such a thing?
She just didn't want to show it.
Since Liang Xiulan has already said it clearly, she will stop pretending.
"Sister, I understand what you mean, and I know you are doing this for my own good."
"But he's no longer the street fighter Hu Dabiao. He's now the owner of a fertilizer factory!"
As she spoke, she raised her eyebrows at Liang Xiulan.
Liang Xiulan's heart skipped a beat. She thought about her words over and over again. After three times, she was suddenly shocked.
"Liang Xiujuan!!! Do you know what you're doing? I repeat, he's old enough to be your uncle!"
Liang Xiujuan's attitude remained the same: "As long as they are attracted to each other, age, background and family are irrelevant!"
This is what Hu Dabiao said to her at the dinner table. She already felt it at that time. It was a hint.
Liang Xiulan was so angry that she pounded the bed.
"Do you know there's a generation gap?"
"You, a little girl of sixteen..."
"Sister, I'm seventeen!" Liang Xiujuan interrupted her.
Liang Xiulan paused: "What's the difference? Seventeen is the age in lunar years. You're not even seventeen yet!"
Liang Xiujuan: "Of course there is a difference. I am one year older and understand more."
"Seventeen, so what? What do you know?"
Liang Xiujuan put the money back into her pocket, sat down, and looked at Liang Xiulan seriously.
"I understand. I want to marry a rich man!"
"When you're looking for a husband, you're looking for a husband, not just a man."
"Jiang Jinzhou is a good person, but his family is not good. It's not okay to marry into a family like that!"
"But Hu Dabiao is different. He has no parents, so I don't need to endure the troubles of his family.
He's also very rich! To me, that's endless money! I won't have to work for the rest of my life."
"He's also a man of loyalty and righteousness. Even after becoming a boss, he hasn't forgotten his brothers. The chances of him going out to look for women should be very small."
"So, what's wrong with finding a man like this? So what if he's older? Isn't it enough if he treats me well?"
The little girl seemed to have grown up suddenly in one day.
For the first time, Liang Xiulan intuitively felt what it meant to be awake in the world.
When did her naughty and playful sister become so understanding? She saw things more clearly than someone who had lived two lifetimes.
