Only then did they come to their senses, looked at the Li Jiakang brothers hatefully, and then turned and walked out.
Seeing this, Li Jiafu stopped seeing them off and returned to his stool, saying with a hint of worry, "Brother, Xiaoqiang and I will take you back tonight."
Obviously, he was worried that those people would harm Li Jiakang's family.
Li Jiakang was equally worried and agreed directly, then asked, "Your tone didn't sound very good just now. Did they offend you?"
"They are the ones who flatter the old man, and the scholar even borrowed money from me."
Hearing this, Li Jiakang hurriedly said, "Don't lend him the money. He's no good. He's always been a bad guy. If you lend him the money, you probably won't get it back."
"I know. I didn't lend him a penny."
Li Jiakang then showed a satisfied expression, and continued the conversation by picking up the topic that had been interrupted just now.
But what no one expected was that people kept coming to Li Jiakang to try to establish a relationship with him and invite him to dinner.
After rejecting several groups of people in a row, Li Jiakang couldn't stand it anymore, so he immediately ordered Li Jiafu's two younger sons to call the old man back and then close the door.
After dinner, Li Jiafu and Li Qiang sent everyone back home. After arriving home, since it was not too late, everyone took out poker and started playing.
The next morning.
Not long after arriving at the Sun family, Sun Min and his family also came over.
Sun Xiu chased the children out of the house and asked, "Little sister, do you want to go to the city to work?"
"Ah?" Everyone in the room was shocked. "You got another job offer?"
Sun Xiu nodded and asked again, "Little sister, what do you say?"
Sun Min hesitated, "Sister, I don't know."
"What's there to not know? This is such a great opportunity. If you miss this opportunity, you'll never get it again." Sun Xiu said unhappily, "You're not too old. Your nephew might be able to use his connections to get you in. If you were older, no one would be able to do anything. Besides, as long as you have a job, your children can all eat commercial grain. Isn't that much better than farming?"
"Yes, little sister, it's such a good opportunity, what else is there to consider?" Uncle Sun and others persuaded.
Sun Min glanced at Tang Yuan standing beside him and said, "We both have city hukou. What should we do with Old Tang? We can't just leave him alone farming in the countryside, right?"
"Take them with you. Your nephew said he'll be responsible for his uncle's food. We'll use our connections later to see if we can find him a temporary job."
In the past, Li Xu would provide food to Sun Min's family every month. In the future, he just needs to add some more to that amount, which is not a problem at all.
"My house was built less than two years ago. I can't bear to part with it. Besides, we have received enough favors from you. I really can't accept it."
As soon as she said this, everyone understood what she meant. She wanted to refuse.
So Sun Xiu quickly said to Tang Yuan, "Brother-in-law, please persuade her and don't let her do anything stupid."
Tang Yuan suddenly laughed, "I have no objection to whatever decision she makes. There's no need to persuade her. As long as she's happy, that's all that matters."
Hearing this, everyone in the room was speechless.
It's fine if you listen to her for small matters, but you listen to her for things like this too?
However, everyone just thought about this in their hearts. After all, as Sun Min's family, they were still very happy about this.
At this time, Mrs. Sun said, "Xiao Min, just like your eldest sister said, if you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again. You have to think carefully."
"Mom, the news about my eldest sister was too sudden. I didn't consider the time at all. How about this, Tang Yuan and I discuss it carefully and give you the answer later?" Sun Min said with a bitter face.
"Of course, Boss. Go and bring them to your room and let them discuss it."
Uncle Sun responded and immediately took the two of them out.
When he came back, he saw Sun Xiu sighing and saying, "If my little sister doesn't want to, you can help persuade her. She is by my side, and I can take care of her."
Her feelings for Sun Min are like Li Mei's feelings for Li Ju. She treats her like a younger sister, but in reality, she treats her almost like a daughter.
It would be fine if Sun Min had a good life, but the problem is that if it weren't for everyone's help, she would have collapsed long ago.
There are only two adults in her family. They worked in the fields for a whole year last year, and when the bill came, they still owed the brigade dozens of yuan. If it weren't for the some money left from building the house, they wouldn't have been able to pay the bill.
Moreover, her four children are still so young, and it will take a long time for them to grow up. She will definitely have to pay debts every year in the meantime.
It’s painful to think about this kind of day.
Uncle Sun and others understood what she meant, so they all agreed.
After a long while, Sun Min and his wife came back. They walked up to Sun Xiu and his wife and bowed. "Sister, brother-in-law, thank you so much. We will come to the city to find you after we sell our house."
Hearing this, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. Sun Xiu even smiled happily and said, "We are all family. No need to thank me. Get up quickly."
"That's right, there's nothing to thank me for." Li Jiakang echoed.
Sun Min and his wife stood up straight and looked at Li Xu who was standing beside them. This frightened Li Xu and he said hurriedly, "Aunt, uncle, I am a junior and cannot bear this courtesy."
"What good things are you thinking about? We just want to thank you verbally." Sun Min said unhappily.
Everyone burst into laughter. Li Xu scratched his head and said awkwardly, "Didn't you just thank my parents? That's enough."
