Chapter 067 Don’t Go to Lindou Street
Hearing Xiao Nanchen's words, Shen Ning was a little surprised: "Why did you suddenly think of this?"
Wasn't this guy always worried that she would be unfair to his deceased elder brother Zhao Mu? He kept staring at her all day to see which man she was getting close to and talking too much with... He was talking nonsense, why did she suddenly change her nature?
Could it be that he wants to cut off ties with her?
Is this golden thigh going to be gone?
Chen Ning's expression was a little nervous. Xiao Nanchen pursed his lips and looked away: "I just think that what Shopkeeper Su said is right. I shouldn't restrict you for those unfounded things and teach you to be alone at such a young age. This is unfair to you."
He said, “You should live the life you want to live.”
All I want is a life of sucking up to the rich!
All the hard work for so long, is it all in vain?
Shen Ning was a little bit unbelievable: "Then you and I will..."
Seeing her sadness and reluctance, Xiao Nanchen pursed his lips and forced himself to be hard-hearted: "Today, I will also make it clear to you that you, Chen Ning... will always be my sister-in-law!"
She’s just sister-in-law!
A friend’s wife should not be bullied, let alone someone he had willingly called “big brother”… He could not do something worse than an animal.
Across from her, Shen Ning was startled, then instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
Her heart was filled with emotion.
At first, Xiao Nanchen regarded her as a frivolous widow and spoke harshly to her. Later, although his attitude improved, he still kept an eye on her all day long, worried that she would let down his eldest brother... After relying on each other for so long, he finally accepted her as his sister-in-law.
She was no longer his eldest brother's vassal, but his real relative. Otherwise, he would never have agreed to let her remarry.
The hard work was not in vain, and the feelings and efforts put in were not wasted... It really is a heart-for-heart exchange!
My king is indeed loyal and righteous.
Shen Ning was full of emotion and patted my king's arm: "No matter what, sister-in-law will remember your words. Don't worry, we will always be relatives."
It seemed that she finally understood what he meant.
It's impossible between them.
From now on, we are just close uncle and sister-in-law...
The bitterness and strange annoyance in his heart were suppressed, and Xiao Nanchen stood up: "I'm back in the army. I'm afraid I won't be free recently. If I have time, I will come back to visit my sister-in-law."
After that, he added: "I left a few subordinates to secretly protect my sister-in-law. If anything happens, they will show up. Don't be afraid then."
Shen Ning couldn't help but nod in comfort: "Okay, okay."
She made it through, she finally made it through!
Xiao Nanchen left without looking back, and Shen Ning's heart was full of sunshine. She even ate an extra bowl of rice.
At the entrance of Yongping Lane, separated by a wall, Eryue was watching the manager recruiting workers.
The fruit season is coming to an end, and Mi Ji is preparing to produce the last batch of canned food this year, which is also the largest batch.
Some people were fired for the last poisoning incident, and we are short of manpower. We need to recruit a new group of people temporarily to make the last batch of canned food.
Moreover, construction on other farms is also about to begin, and a lot of manpower is needed.
Nowadays, many people want to work at Mi Ji, but Chen Ning gives priority to the neighbors in Yongping Lane.
After moving here for a long time, everything is very harmonious. Most of the people living in Yongping Lane are outsiders. Everyone knows each other's difficulties and they are all in harmony on weekdays.
The person in charge sat at the table to register, and Eryue stood by and watched. They wanted addresses that could be found by permanent residents to prevent any unidentified people from sneaking in and causing trouble.
The job posting stated that both men and women were welcome as long as they were healthy, so there were quite a few women in the queue.
These days, it's hard to find work, especially for women, who can do even less. Most of the time, they just wash clothes for others and don't make much money.
But everyone knows that working at Mi Ji is different. Regardless of gender, the only thing that counts is the work. The wages for doing the same work are the same. The more you work, the more you get paid, and the less you work, the less you get paid.
The manager asked for the household registration addresses and registered them one by one. Eryue looked at them one by one with a cold and calm gaze.
At this moment, someone walked up to the manager and said, "Pingning County Lindou Street..."
The steward was about to register when Er Yueliang raised his eyelids and said, "We don't want people from Lindou Street."
The other party was stunned for a moment and forced a smile: "Why is that?"
"No reason. People in Lindou Street never use it. Tell others to notify them as well."
The manager responded immediately.
The person who was rejected looked dissatisfied and aggrieved, and asked loudly: "Why don't you want people from Lindou Street? We in Lindou Street..."
He stopped talking halfway and looked at Shen Ning who was walking over with some surprise.
The steward immediately greeted him: "Boss."
Shen Ning smiled and nodded, then looked at the man who was shouting, with a calm expression: "I hire people for my own farm, so I don't need anyone I don't want. What's it to you?"
She said to the manager, "We don't want anyone from Lindou Street. If he doesn't leave, we won't register him here. The number of people should be almost gone."
The man had already recognized that this was actually Madam Shen who had lived in Lindou Street. What else was there to understand? His face turned pale and red, and he was extremely embarrassed. But thinking of the famous generous treatment, he still did not give up: "Madam Shen..."
Shen Ning had already turned and walked away.
When the people behind heard that they would not register if they continued to block the street, they immediately became anxious and started to complain and drive the person away: "The owner said that we don't want people from the street to fight. Hurry up and get out of the way and don't delay others."
"Yes, everyone knows that there are troublemakers on Lindou Street. Don't you bully outsiders often? You deserve it."
In a short while, many people from Lindou Street were driven away, and they left in shame, unwillingness and embarrassment.
They soon recruited enough people, and in the afternoon, Shen Ning went to the store.
Su Lianyi was already there reconciling accounts with Qiyue. Seeing Chen Ning, she laughed and joked, "You drank so much last night, I thought you wouldn't be able to get out of bed today."
Shen Ning snorted and laughed: "It's not that serious, my alcohol tolerance is not that bad, right?"
Qi Yue rushed over and hugged Shen Ning around the waist and rubbed against her: "Miss, I missed you."
Su Lianyi couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so she laughed and joked, "You're just a clingy person, aren't you, July? I just saw you yesterday."
Little Qiyue had grown up a bit, already looking like a young girl. Upon hearing this, she pouted and said, "I want to see you every day, young lady."
Su Lianyi surrendered: "Okay, okay, I'm really redundant here, I'll make way for you."
The three of them were laughing and chatting when suddenly a voice was heard at the door of the shop.
“Sister-in-law…”
The three of them turned around at the same time and saw Li Qingqing, whom they had not seen for several days.
It was obvious that Li Qingqing had not had a good time these days. There was no trace of her previous arrogance on her face. Her dress was wrinkled, her face was pale and haggard, and she barely wore a silver hairpin.
It was obvious that she was trying hard to appear respectable, but she couldn't even maintain the facade. She looked timid and wretched, calling out "sister-in-law" in an extremely pitiful manner before rushing towards Su Lianyi, crying...
