Chapter 89 Stay away
Li Wanyue helped Zhao's mother to the inner room to rest, said a few words of comfort to her, and then came out to look at Xie Yan and Shen Yu: "Sorry, I made you laugh."
Shen Yu shook his head: "No, no."
Xie Yan said: "I'm glad you're not affected."
Li Wanyue smiled lightly: "I won't be influenced by these people, let's go to the fields."
He said as if nothing had happened, and called the three brothers and the eldest sister-in-law to go to the field to cultivate sweet potato seedlings.
Let Li Youshan stay and accompany Zhao Suying.
As the group walked on the path, Xie Yan stared at Li Wanyue from time to time. What kind of person is she?
Faced with such humiliation, having such a secret as divorce exposed in front of strangers, she remained unaffected.
If it were any other woman, she would probably not dare to see anyone.
Li Wanyue asked Xie Yan: "Why do you always look at me?"
Xie Yan shook his head: "No, I suddenly realized that you are a woman who looks weak but is strong inside."
"Do I look weak?"
What gave him this illusion? She had been eating well and exercising regularly during this period, and her body had become much stronger.
Xie Yan raised the corners of his lips slightly: "You have a slender figure, so you will look a little weak."
Li Wanyue smiled and said, "Do you think I am a traitor for speaking to my grandfather like that?"
Xie Yan shook his head: "Everything has its cause and effect. It is not right to force the younger generation to submit by using the dignity of an elder, and it is not kind to force your granddaughter to be a concubine.
I have also encountered such a thing, and my elders in my family have also forced me in this way, but due to the secular world, I did not dare to resist like you, so I stayed away from them. Today, I have learned from you. "
Li Wanyue looked at him and said, "Why are you learning from me? I can use this trick in the village, but the higher the family status, the stricter the rules and the more restricted they are. They also don't allow the younger generation to challenge their authority, because it concerns the reputation of the entire family. At the same time, they are afraid that their descendants will follow my example, so they will not allow a situation like mine to happen."
Xie Yan was surprised: "You know a lot. What should a family with high status do when they are oppressed by their elders?"
Li Wanyue casually replied: "Just like you, stay away."
Xie Yan smiled and said nothing more. As she said, he felt more comfortable in the small county town. As for his father and mother... let them love the eldest brother wholeheartedly and be filial to them.
"Ayu and I also have acquaintances in the county government. If you need help, just ask."
Li Wanyue responded: "Thank you, I won't be polite."
In a blink of an eye, we arrived at the fields.
Li Wanyue demonstrated and explained at the same time, saying that after loosening the soil, he dug a few shallow trenches and placed the sweet potatoes in the trenches at intervals of about 20 centimeters. He then covered them with a thin layer of soil and sprinkled some water on them. Finally, he spread grass on top to keep them warm and moist. After a while, when vines grew, they could be transplanted.
Xie Yan wrote down the steps and went back with Shen Yu.
On the way, Shen Yu sighed: "This Miss Wanyue is really strong inside. She was humiliated by her own grandfather in front of outsiders like us, but she was so calm and even made her grandfather speechless. It's really interesting."
Xie Yan said quietly, "I didn't know when you became so close to Miss Li."
"Today, we are going to work together to make money."
Xie Yan glanced at him sideways and ignored him.
Shen Yu remembered something and rolled his eyes at the person opposite him. "Xie Yan, if you weren't my cousin, I wouldn't have cared about you. You know that one day later means one day less of sales, one day less of money earned. Miss Li and I could have discussed the cooperation today."
Xie Yan laughed: "If it weren't for the fact that you are my cousin, I would not have handed the restaurant over to you to run. Baiweilou is opened by me, and you are responsible for the management. Since it is related to business, I naturally have to participate."
Shen Yu snorted, then thought of something and said, "Oh, by the way, I'll go back and write a letter to my mother. She owns a rouge shop, and the soap made by Miss Li can be sold in Beijing. If you have any friends who are related, you can also cooperate with her.
I have a feeling that this table will be very popular. If you have connections, you should stock it in advance, otherwise others will be able to make the same one with just a little thought."
Xie Yan naturally knew this, and he said calmly: "I know, but this matter also needs Miss Li's consent first. When your batch of potatoes arrives, give them directly to me, and I will find a piece of land to plant some more."
Shen Yu glared at him and said, "This is the signature dish of the restaurant. I can only give you half. Besides, isn't Miss Li growing it? You just need to wait and see the results of her growing. Why worry about it yourself?"
Xie Yan ignored him and closed his eyes to rest.
Li's Old House
Old Mrs. Li and Li Xiumei were both waiting for news. They felt something was wrong when they saw Old Man Li and his group coming back angrily.
Li Xiumei asked anxiously: "Grandpa, Dad, what's going on?"
Old man Li gritted his teeth and said, "Don't mention that damn girl to me. If she gets me mad at me again one day, don't mention her in front of me in the future."
Manager Deng reminded: "Mr. Li, you promised Manager Zhou at that time. If this matter is not handled well, you have to give an explanation to Manager Zhou and our Mr. Qian."
"What did I have to explain? Manager Zhou only said that he would give me ten taels of silver if the job was done, and he didn't give it to me in advance."
Manager Deng said with a gloomy face: "Hey, we agreed to pay the money after the body is carried into the mansion. Now that the matter is not done, it is your responsibility."
Old Lady Li quickly stuffed a bunch of money into the hands of Manager Deng and said, "Manager Deng, we knew each other before. I'm sorry to bother you with the trip this time. Here's some money for the tea. We'll talk about it later. After all, Master Qian doesn't need a concubine."
Manager Deng's expression eased: "Okay, I'll give you a favor and I'll go and give Manager Zhou a reply."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Li Xiumei said anxiously: "Dad, what should we do? If Li Wanyue doesn't join the Qian family, Jiawang won't be able to stay in Ruifulou."
Li Youfu also sighed. That girl was as slippery as a loach and she even threatened his second son's future. His son's future was his weak point and he couldn't just ignore it.
But Manager Zhou said that Li Wanyue must be allowed to enter the Qian Mansion. Master Qian has connections in the county government, and he cannot afford to offend them.
Liu Jinhua's eyes rolled, and she came close to Li Youfu and whispered something. Li Youfu's eyes lit up when he heard it.
You’re right. By that time, she won’t be able to get married even if she doesn’t want to.
－－－－
Li Wanyue and her group returned home, washed, changed into clean clothes, and sat in the yard to rest while Wang Guixiang was cooking dinner.
Sun Xiuqin smiled and sat next to Li Wanyue: "Little sister, where are the two gentlemen here today from? How old are they?"
Li Wanyue shook her head: "I have only met them twice, and I am not familiar with them at all. How could I ask about their private affairs? Why is Second Sister-in-law asking this?"
"Nothing. I think they look good and they are reliable. My niece is also old enough to discuss marriage. You are half her elder. If they are reliable, you can help them get in touch. If they get married, it will be good for you."
Li Wanyue couldn't help but chuckle, but before she could say anything, Zhao Suying came over and glared at Sun Xiuqin.
