Chapter 80 Sick in the Brain

"This kind of family affairs, especially emotional disputes, should not be involved if possible. Otherwise, people may blame you for being nosy and cause trouble for you. It's better to settle it or not." Liu Yu said experiencedly while packing her clothes.

Well, even though she hasn't experienced these things, she has read novels and watched TV dramas. Although she has no experience, she still has experience.

Qi Nian thought it made sense. After all, getting involved in someone else's feelings was risky. He held his chin and asked, "Should I refuse?"

"Of course, but you have to be more tactful, hehe, master the art of language." Liu Yu said that she had heard of her father. Although her father was not good at aesthetics, he was well versed in human nature.

Qi Nian, who was not one to reject people, was a little worried: "Will the other party be angry?"

"Probably not. Maybe they will trust our store more and think that the staff are very strict. But they may also get angry." However, although Liu Yu really wants to make a career, she is not afraid of this: "I sell clothes. As long as the clothes are of good quality and beautiful style, there will be customers who will buy them."

After that, she pretended to be serious and said in a deep tone, "If she stops coming to my store because of this incident today, she will stop coming for other reasons in the future, so there is no need to be so cautious."

Qi Nian was so annoyed by her expression that he said, "Okay, that does make sense."

"That's very well said!" Taking advantage of the fact that there were not many people around, Cheng Yelei openly sat aside and applauded Liu Yu enthusiastically.

Cheng Yelei is indeed a young master of a wealthy family. His arrogance came out again: "Isn't it just a customer? If he's gone, he's gone. We don't need him in our store."

"You haven't understood what I mean yet." Liu Yu shook his head and taught earnestly: "Generally speaking, customers are God. Do you understand?"

Cheng Yelei was quite obedient, mainly because he still wanted to continue working here. He had no choice but to listen. He touched his nose and said, "...Okay."

Liu Yu nodded, edited the good news and sent it to the sister who was suspicious of her husband.

This sister's name was Miao Yanhua. She had a good temper. Seeing that Liu Yu politely rejected her request, she did not get angry and still asked her to arrange for someone to deliver the clothes, but changed the address.

Liu Yu breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this. It was one thing not to lack this customer, but she would still feel sad if she lost such a generous customer.

——

As the Chinese New Year is approaching, Liu Yu's clothing store is getting busier and busier. It may be because it is the Spring Festival and everyone is on holiday.

Moreover, China has always had the tradition of wearing new clothes during the Chinese New Year. Although life is better now and we can wear new clothes on weekdays, when we talk about the Chinese New Year, we still can't help but want to buy clothes.

Anyway, the clothing store has been getting busier recently, and Qi Nian would go to Liu Yu to help when he was bored occasionally.

But he doesn't have much time today because he has to go shopping for New Year's goods with his family.

Recently, Chu Rongshi also took himself a vacation, and it was rare for the family of four to go out together.

Ning Min, as the general commander, arranged what they wanted to buy: "Niannian, you and your brother go buy couplets and other decorations, and your uncle and I will buy vegetables."

Normally, things like buying groceries are done by the nanny at home, but Chinese New Year is coming soon, so Ning Min gave the nanny a holiday so that she can go home and celebrate the New Year, so now she has to do these things by herself.

But housework is fun to do occasionally, especially in the joyful atmosphere of the New Year.

When Qi Nian heard the arrangement, he subconsciously turned his head to look at Chu Rong. The other party was wearing a black tweed jacket and a light gray scarf today. This outfit made him look much gentler than usual.

Perhaps noticing Qi Nian's gaze, Chu Rongshi turned his head to look at him.

Qi Nian immediately looked away in panic, coughed lightly, and said to Ning Min quickly: "Okay...Okay."

"Okay, let's split up." Ning Min said before leaving: "We need to buy a few more pairs of couplets. Putting up couplets this year is a big project."

"It's okay, leave it to me." Chu Zhen patted his chest and took the initiative.

Ning Min: "It is auspicious to post Spring Festival couplets only when there are children, and of course they have to be recited."

Chu Zhen pushed the shopping cart and nodded, accepting this statement.

Qi Nian and Chu Rongshi came to the area where Spring Festival couplets were sold. He was surprised to find that there were people who specialized in writing Spring Festival couplets. So he immediately put back the printed couplets he was reading halfway and said to Chu Rongshi, "Brother, shall we go buy the couplets that were written?"

Chu Rongshi looked at his bright deer eyes and suddenly felt that the way they were discussing buying things at home was very similar...

He nodded softly.

Although Qi Nian felt a little uncomfortable being looked at, maybe he got used to it after a while? He was now able to remain calm under Chu Rongshi's gaze.

He happily planned to queue up, but when he walked past the shelves, he realized that the people he had just seen in the queue were only a part of it, and there was a much longer queue behind them.

Writing Spring Festival couplets has apparently become a popular item in this shopping mall, as can be seen from the fact that a large space has been reserved specifically for people who write Spring Festival couplets.

But there are too many people, right? Qi Nian couldn't help but shrink back a little, looking at Chu Rongshi: "There are so many people, why don't we just forget it? Uh... Uncle and auntie shouldn't have any requirements on whether the Spring Festival couplets should be handwritten, right?"

Chu Rongshi said: "No, if you don't want to queue, go there and buy some red paper and write at home."

"Go home and write?" Qi Nian quickly grasped the key words, his eyes widened and he looked at Chu Rongshi in surprise: "Can you write calligraphy?"

Chu Rongshi noticed that when the other party spoke, his body unconsciously leaned towards him. He chuckled, "A little bit."

Qi Nian thought that considering his brother's humble character, "a little bit" would definitely be a good writing.

Very good, it directly solves the problem of having to queue up to write Spring Festival couplets. They can go home and write them directly!

Qi Nian put several pieces of red paper into the shopping cart with a smile on his face, his eyes crooked, like a little fox stealing some fish.

He then asked Chu Rongshi: "Do you want to buy pens and ink?"

Well, that's what you need for writing.

Chu Rongshi said, "No, I have some at home."

Qi Nian asked curiously, "Do you practice calligraphy? I've never seen it before. I didn't expect you to be interested in it."

Chu Rongshi patiently answered his question: "Occasionally, you rarely come to the study, so you are not interested. I will practice when I am in a restless mood."

"Oh." Qi Nian nodded, his eyes attracted by the candies on the shelf again, and he muttered, "I wonder if the uncles and aunts bought candies."

"It's not there where they went." Chu Rongshi said.

That means I didn't buy any. Qi Nian immediately pulled down a bag from the side and prepared to put some candy in it.

He lowered his head and picked the ones carefully, then directed Chu Rongshi: "Brother, go get some of the colorful candies, they look delicious. Um... the kids at home will definitely like them."

In order to prevent Chu Rongshi from thinking that he was just like a child and liked to eat those candies with beautiful packaging, he had to use the children of his relatives as a shield.

I have no idea that my little thoughts are written all over my face and can be seen through at a glance.

Chu Rongshi did not expose him and went to the other side to fill the box with colorful candies. He then noticed that there were some soft candies in the shape of small animals, which Qi Nian might like, so he put some in there as well.

Qi Nian had prepared a lot of candy and was about to put down the price tag when a child suddenly appeared from nowhere, shouting, "Mom, I want some candy!"

Qi Nian was still thinking: Sure enough, no child can refuse candy.

As he was thinking, he didn't know what the child's mother said, but the child suddenly rushed towards him again, directly hitting Qi Nian's back with his head, shouting: "Get out of the way, I want candy, I want candy!"

Qi Nian: “…” Hiss…my waist.

The naughty kid was shouting when he suddenly felt someone pulling his collar. He struggled to look up and was frightened by Chu Rongshi's gloomy face.

Chu Rongshi didn't have time to pay attention to the boy's mood. He looked gloomy and concerned, "How is it?"

Qi Nian shook his head: "It's okay."

Although Qi Nian said it was okay, it was obviously impossible to just let this matter go.

At this moment, the naughty child's parents also reacted and hurried over. Seeing Chu Rongshi still holding their son's collar, the naughty child's mother immediately accused him with great distress: "How old are you, and you still bully a child? Let my son go!"

The naughty kid seemed to have someone to rely on, and fought even harder, even wanting to swing his hands to hit Chu Rongshi.

But unfortunately Chu Rongshi had long arms and legs, while the naughty kid had short legs and arms, so no matter how they waved, they couldn't touch each other.

I don't know why, but this scene is kind of funny.

Chu Rongshi didn't want to say anything more to the parents who raised such a child. He looked at the naughty child with a cold face and said, "Apologize."

The naughty kid paused for a moment, perhaps because he was frightened by Chu Rongshi's cold face, but he suddenly burst into tears.

"No, our child is only five years old. What do you want him to apologize for? Do you have the nerve to ask him to apologize to a grown-up? What does he understand?" The parents of the naughty child immediately became unhappy when they heard this.

"At the age of five, a child should understand the most basic principles," Chu Rongshi said, "unless your child has intellectual disabilities."

"Who are you cursing? Aren't you too vicious? You're such a grown-up and yet you're arguing with your child!" The child's parents became even more excited after hearing this.

It seemed as if just one sentence could really make his child stupid.

"But your kid is really bad. He just rushed over and bumped into me on purpose." Qi Nian was not happy to see these two people rushing up to blame his brother. Humph, when has his brother ever suffered such an injustice!

"You...you two grown men must be arguing with the child, right?" The other party began to practice moral blackmail again.

"He is a child in your eyes, and my brother is also a child in my eyes. Please ask your child to apologize to my child. Is there a problem?" Chu Rongshi was terrifyingly calm from beginning to end, except when Qi Nian was hit.

I don’t know if it was a belated development that they realized the person they were facing was not someone they could afford to offend, or if there was some other reason.

In short, the parents finally apologized to Qi Nian for their naughty child.

However, when the letter was sent to them, the family of three still looked unconvinced, but perhaps they felt embarrassed and ran away in a hurry.

"Brother, you looked so handsome just now!" Qi Nian secretly gave Chu Rongshi a thumbs up.

Chu Rongshi curled his lips, then reached out and pressed down Qi Nian's raised thumb, and wrapped his hand around Qi Nian's hand.

Everyone thought: “?”

He tried to struggle, but failed.

Qi Nian narrowed his eyes: "What are you doing?"

Chu Rongshi said calmly, "The supermarket is very dangerous. Naughty kids will appear randomly. It's safer to hold them with you."

Qi Nian: "..." I don't believe you!

His ears were burning and he couldn't get away, so he just gave up.

Isn't it just... isn't it just holding hands? It's nothing. I was thinking while walking with my hands and feet together.

When he heard laughter coming from the side, he immediately glared at them.

Chu Rongshi coughed lightly: "I'm not laughing at you."

Qi Nian: “…” Oh, I believe it.

——

After buying the things, the family had a meal outside before going home.

Ning Min saw that they had bought red paper and said with a smile, "Will Rong Shi write this year? Write a few more, your grandmother will also need some."

Chu Rongshi hung his coat and scarf on the hanger and said, "Yeah."

With the corner of his eye, he noticed Qi Nian raised his hand and pressed his lower back, and he paused.

Qi Nian returned to the room and was about to try to look in the mirror to see what was going on, but before he could close the door, a hand was pressed against it.

Qi Nian looked at Chu Rongshi's handsome face and scratched his face embarrassedly: "Is there...what's the matter?"

"Back pain? Let me come over to take a look." Chu Rongshi looked at him with concern.

Qi Nian's cheeks immediately turned red, and his eyes wandered: "You...what are you looking at? Don't look at it!"

Chu Rongshi was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and finally felt a little uncomfortable: "I won't look anywhere else."

Mainly, I'm really worried.

"What do you mean by somewhere else? Nowhere is allowed!" Qi Nian said angrily: "I... I can watch it myself."

Chu Rongshi: "Midfielder, can you see it?"

Qi Nian didn't understand why he had to explain this to Chu Rongshi: "You can also use a mirror, you don't need it anyway. I just want to see if it's blue, it's nothing serious."

Chu Rongshi hesitated, but Qi Nian was too embarrassed to continue explaining, so he reached out and pushed Chu Rongshi: "Go away, go away!"

It shouldn't be that serious if it was just a child. Chu Rongshi felt relieved and was pushed out of the room by Qi Nian.

Looking at the door that was immediately closed in front of him: "..."

Ning Min's voice came from a distance: "Rong Shi, what are you staring at Nian Nian's door for?"

Chu Rongshi: "...not in a daze."

Ning Min heard someone mutter, "If you're not in a daze, then what are you doing?"

In the room, Qi Nian exhaled, patted his hot cheeks, walked to the mirror, lifted the hem of his clothes, and stretched his neck awkwardly, finally seeing clearly the part that was hit.

Not surprisingly, it turned blue, but his skin does turn blue easily. This is not serious and should go away in a few days.

However, his eyes fell on the slender waist in the mirror...

After a moment, he blushed and complained: There's nothing to see, my brother is so weird.

——

Qi Nian was bored and went to Liu Yu's store to check it out, and found Liu Yu chatting with a middle-aged woman.

"Qi Nian, you're here!" As soon as he saw Qi Nian coming, Cheng Yelei became excited like a large dog. He brought a stool and went to Qi Nian to slack off.

Today was a rare day when he was not busy. Qi Nian looked curiously at the middle-aged woman who was talking to Liu Yu and asked Cheng Yelei, "Who is that?"

"This is the one who was suspected to be her husband before, her name is...Miao Yanhua!" Cheng Yelei is not very busy every day, and his main role is to do the styling, so he is quite clear about these.

Cheng Yelei whispered to Qi Nian, "I heard from Miao Yanhua that she doesn't have many close friends, and Liu Yu is more proficient in the art of language, so she has been coming to Liu Yu to talk recently."

Qi Nian glanced at Liu Yu: "Is it my illusion? Why does Liu Yu look very tired?"

"It's okay for once or twice, but if it happens more often, who wouldn't be tired?" Cheng Yelei was really speechless. After all, Miao Yanhua came here every day and basically regarded this place as her second home.

Qi Nian was confused: "Does she have so much to say?"

"Oh, what did she say recently? She said that her husband is not home every day, and although he often brings her some real estate and other things, she is not happy." Cheng Yelei said: "It seems that she said this to her friends before, but her friends told her not to show off anymore, otherwise they would cut off all ties with her. Miao Yanhua was very sad about this. She felt that no one could understand her except Liu Yu."

Everyone thought: "..."

He was a little surprised: "How do you know this? Did Liu Yu tell you?"

Cheng Yelei shook his head and said proudly: "No, I overheard it."

Qi Nian: "..." Should I still praise you?

He originally thought that why he came here every day was an exaggeration, but when Qi Nian came over the next day, he saw Miao Yanhua again.

However, Miao Yanhua did not come alone this time. She was accompanied by a man. The man had a handsome face and looked quite young, but one could probably guess his age.

"Huh... finally you didn't say those words to me." Liu Yu breathed a sigh of relief and whispered to Qi Nian.

It can be seen that she was badly devastated.

Although she was good at talking, it was really tiring to talk to someone with whom you had nothing in common. To be honest, Liu Yu wanted to flip the table several times and yell: I quit!

Qi Nian supported her and soothed her, "Don't be impulsive. After all, I remember that your table is quite expensive."

When the store was first decorated, in order to reflect the style of the store, the tables in the store were particularly expensive.

"Although, what you said makes sense." Liu Yu gave Qi Nian a thumbs up, thanking him for giving him another reason to be patient.

Miao Yanhua was obviously in a particularly good mood today. She asked her husband to help her pick out a lot of clothes. When she came to pay the bill, she happily introduced Liu Yu: "This is Liu Yu, my new sister. We get along very well. You are too busy with your business, so I can only ask her to relieve my boredom."

Liu Yu smiled and nodded.

Miao Yanhua's husband also smiled and nodded: "Hello, my name is..."

Before he finished speaking, Miao Yanhua stopped smiling and interrupted him: "It's already been settled over there, go over and settle the bill."

Miao Yanhua's husband nodded and went to settle the bill.

Miao Yanhua did not leave, and looked at Liu Yu half-jokingly: "Liu Yu, what do you think of my husband? Haven't you always been curious about him? You finally got to see him today."

Liu Yu: No, when did I become curious?

Although she felt puzzled, she still smiled and exaggerated a few words.

Unexpectedly, Miao Yanhua stopped smiling immediately, and looked at Liu Yu with a gloomy gaze, which made people feel cold on the back.

After they settled the bill and left, Liu Yu patted his chest and said, "No, she's sick, right? I didn't say anything, did I? Why is that expression on her face?"

Qi Nian quickly comforted her: "Don't be angry, don't be angry. If you get sick from anger, no one can help you."

Cheng Yelei is a very honest kid. He analyzed based on his experience: "Usually when my mom shows this expression, it means she thinks someone wants to be my stepmother."

It would have been fine if he didn't say anything. As soon as he said it, Liu Yu immediately exploded and cursed for a long time. In short, she felt that Miao Yanhua was very strange.

Qi Nian comforted her again: "It's a misunderstanding, maybe it's just a misunderstanding."

While paying attention to what Cheng Yelei wanted to say, Qi Nian immediately gave him a sharp look, and the other party immediately shut up reluctantly.

But Cheng Yelei might have been right. Since that day, Miao Yanhua never came to Liu Yu's store again.

Liu Yu thought it didn't matter. It was best if he didn't come. She was happy and relaxed.

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, so the store can be open for two more days before closing.

But maybe it was Liu Yu's destiny. Qi Nian was helping the family clean that day when he received a call from Cheng Yelei.

The other party sounded anxious: "Qinian, come here quickly, that Miao Yanhua is making trouble in the store, insisting that Liu Yu is a mistress!"

Qi Nian: "? No, is she sick? I'll go over right away!"

When they hurriedly arrived, they found that the store entrance was already surrounded by people. With the help of Cheng Yelei, Qi Nian was able to squeeze into the store.

Then I was shocked to see the store in a mess. It was obviously smashed by Miao Yanhua and his men.

Miao Yanhua was still going crazy at this time: "You still say you have no improper thoughts about my husband? That day your eyes were almost glued to my husband, you slutty vixen, he didn't go home because of you!"

Liu Yuren was stunned. She tried to explain in a gentle voice at first, but now she knew that this person was mentally ill and her explanation was meaningless. She simply started to curse: "I don't even know your husband's name. Are you hysterical? Do you think everyone is interested in your husband?"

Miao Yanhua: "Look, this bitch wants to know my husband's name. You are targeting my husband, right? I treat you like a sister. Smash you for being so daring to covet my man!"

Seeing Miao Yanhua started to push Liu Yu again, Qi Nian, Cheng Yelei and several shop assistants hurriedly intervened. Qi Nian looked at Liu Yu with concern: "You are not dead, are you?"

Liu Yu waved his fist: "Don't stop me, I'm going to beat this idiot to death!"

Everyone thought: "..."

He frowned and looked at Miao Yanhua, who seemed to have a mental disorder, with a sharp gaze: [Is Miao Yanhua really not aware that Liu Yu is innocent? She is simply looking for an excuse to deliberately make trouble. It turns out that she has noticed that her husband may really have someone else outside, but she can't find any evidence, so she can only use this method to "kill the chicken to scare the monkey." ]

[She didn’t dare to complain to her husband. She said she was distressed, but her tone was always boastful, so she was afraid that her husband would really find a mistress and make her lose her current wealthy life.]

[But she seems to have misunderstood. Her husband didn’t cheat on her at all. Uh… I don’t know if it can be considered cheating. The reason why he didn’t come home so often was that he was indeed “doing business”, but it didn’t seem to be a serious business… Oh, the properties he brought back were all given by those rich women! ]

The crowd of spectators: "Fuck."

I thought it was just a normal beating of the mistress, but I didn't expect the truth to be so exciting!
