Chapter 219 It’s time to retire
“Lan Ting, is it possible that your mother really didn’t do this?”
Gu Lan Ting hummed.
Yuan Xiao leaned forward, “You also have doubts, don’t you?”
“If your mother didn’t lie, then the liars were Su Ding and Xiao Hui.”
Gu Lan Ting’s eyebrows sank, and he pinched her little face and pulled it, “Whatever the police found is what it is.”
Yuan Xiao frowned, “Why?”
“Han Xiaoguang came to see me.”
This sentence woke Yuan Xiao up.
“So this was done by Su Ding! How wronged is your mother?”
Yuan Xiao stared at Gu Lan Ting in a daze.
Gu Lan Ting shook his head, “My mother needs a lesson.”
In addition, Han Xiaoguang.
Han Xiaoguang took the initiative to find him and told him that it was Su Ding who did it.
Although Su Ding did not admit it, he knew it.
If Gu Lanting continued to investigate, he might be able to pry Xiaohui's mouth open.
But Han Xiaoguang begged Gu Lanting to stop here.
Han Xiaoguang's parents were not very satisfied with Su Ding. She was an orphan and still old. If something happened soon after their marriage, they would definitely ask them to divorce.
Gu Lanting had to agree to help them only this time.
Yuan Xiao didn't say anything. If Han Xiaoguang came to her for help, she would do the same.
"But Su Ding, why do you do this? She likes you, shouldn't she please your mother? Why do you do the opposite?"
Gu Lanting smiled helplessly, "Don't say such things."
Yuan Xiao stuck out his tongue, "I just said this in front of you, I think it's strange."
This question is not only Yuan Xiao's curiosity.
Even Han Xiaoguang has asked Su Ding many times, why do you do this?
Su Ding always looks gentle and soft, "If you want to do it, just do it."
"Does this make you feel better?" Han Xiaoguang asked in a deep voice.
He seems to be unable to see through Su Ding at all.
Su Ding shook his head, "No, I don't feel well, so I can't let them feel well either."
Han Xiaoguang covered his face and uttered painful sobs, "Since marrying me makes you feel uncomfortable, why do you still want to marry me? As long as you say one word, I will apply for a divorce from you at the risk of my life!"
Su Ding smiled and looked at him tenderly, "I won't divorce."
For a moment, Han Xiaoguang even thought that Su Ding was crazy.
There was no light in her eyes, as if she wanted to pull everyone into the darkness.
"Gu Lanting is getting married, did you know?"
Su Ding was stunned for a moment, and smiled foolishly, "Just get married, it's a matter of time."
The matter between Su Ding and Bai Hua came to an end for the time being, and the matter was kept secret well, at least it did not become a laughing stock in the capital.
Bai Hua, on the other hand, seemed to have shifted his anger to Su Ding.
From what Lan Xi knew, Bai Hua had made things difficult for Su Ding several times.
Yuan Xiao didn't know whether he should thank Su Ding or not. At least after Gu Lanting's marriage report was approved, Bai Hua never came to her house to cause trouble.
...
The haze of many days was swept away, and the sky finally returned to a clear state.
Yuan Yuan chewed melon seeds, watching Yuan Xiao's absent-minded look, and joked, "Some people are lovesick. It's only been a few days since we last met!"
Yuan Xiao pinched her apple-like face, "Who is lovesick?"
Yuan Yuan tilted her head, her face crooked, "You, you, you!"
Yuan Xiao put his hand down, "I'm not thinking about Gu Lanting, my mother and the others are going to give me an engagement date, and I'm suddenly a little scared."
"What's there to be afraid of? Gu Lanting is such an excellent man, others can't get him in time!"
Yuan Xiao teased, "Why, our Yuan Yuan also likes this type?"
Yuan Yuan shook her head, looking like she had a toothache, "I can't resist a man like this."
"But, many people say that what you can't get will always be lingering. Maybe after you get married, the novelty will disappear." Yuan Yuan said, and then pouted a few times, "You won't!"
Yuan Xiao laughed, "I'm not afraid, I have money!"
Yuan Yuan nodded seriously, "That's right, Xiaoxiao, you have made enough money, you can retire."
Yuan Xiao glanced at her, "How can you retire in your prime youth? I still have a lot of things to do!"
"What?" Yuan Yuan asked.
Yuan Xiao's brain suddenly seemed to be stuck.
The store is open, the textile factory is open, and the processing plant is also completed. It seems that she really has nothing to do next.
Do I really have to retire at the age of 20?
She looked a little surprised. Yuan Yuan asked in confusion, "Why don't you say anything?"
Yuan Xiao touched her chin with one hand and pouted, "I found that I can really retire."
Yuan Yuan rolled her eyes, "Just now you said there are many things to do."
Yuan Xiao sat paralyzed on the stool, basking in the sun lazily.
Wang Yazhi came in from outside and saw her like this, "You stay at home as soon as you have a holiday, and you don't go out to see the orchard."
Yuan Xiao has always been a lazy boss, and she is getting more and more lazy.
Yuan Xiao hummed, "I won't go."
Wang Yazhi patted her on the back, "Hurry up, I'll pick your lazy muscles later, your uncle Chu will bring a friend over later."
Yuan Xiao propped up his chin and looked up at her, "Who are you bringing over?"
Wang Yazhi smiled, "Your future father-in-law."
Yuan Xiao instantly became energetic, Gu Changsheng?
She had been in the capital for so long, but she had never met Gu Changsheng.
According to Gu Lanting, he was a man who devoted his body and soul to the country and his work.
Gu Changsheng was also a soldier, but later he injured his legs and feet, so he switched to a civilian job and retired behind the scenes.
Yuan Xiao stood up, cleaned up the melon seed shells she had eaten, and went back to her room to change clothes.
In just a moment, Chu Jiangping came back with his men.
Chu Jiangping brought back two men, and Yuan Xiao's eyes moved back and forth between them.
Finally, her eyes stayed on the man at the edge, and she walked over, "Hello, uncle, I'm Yuan Xiao, Gu Lanting's boyfriend."
The two families had not met formally yet. Originally, Gu Lanting said that he would bring her home in a while, and call her grandmother by the way.
Unexpectedly, Gu Changsheng came before she even arrived.
The man raised his eyebrows, "Oh, it's Yuan Xiao."
The man in the middle pushed the man away with a smile and cursed, and said to Yuan Xiao: "Comrade Yuan Xiao, I am Gu Changsheng, Lan Ting's father."
Yuan Xiao was petrified and stammered to introduce himself again.
Gu Lan Ting's father is quite young.
Chu Jiangping laughed, "This is Chief Ling."
Yuan Xiao was in awe. Chief, this is a big official.
"Don't be shy, sit down. I came here today just to see what the students that Professor Wen has been bragging about in front of me look like."
Chief Ling said as he sat down without any hesitation.
Yuan Xiao made tea for them before sitting down.
Chief Ling looked up at Yuan Xiao, a very beautiful girl, who looked weak, but her eyebrows and eyes were full of determination.
He took a sip of the tea and was surprised: "Good tea, is this made in your own shop?"
Yuan Xiao smiled and nodded, "If you like it, I will bring you a box later."
Chief Ling laughed and nodded at her, "You are bribing me."
Yuan Xiao looked innocent: "It is a bribe only if you ask for something, I am just giving you something."
Chief Ling put down the cup and propped one hand on the stone table, "I heard that you have cultivated a crop with a record high yield per mu? And more than one kind?"
Yuan Xiao nodded.
"Relax, relax! Can your uncle steal your things?" Chief Ling joked with a smile.
Yuan Xiao smiled and said, "Of course you won't."
"But I heard that you provided crop seeds to dozens of farmers for free, and only took 10% of the profit?"
Yuan Xiao was stunned for a moment, "It's just cooperation, I'm not doing charity."
She wants to make money.
Chief Ling's eyes have a little more admiration, "But you know very well in your heart that once you hand it over, the crop seeds will definitely flow out. By then, everyone will have them, and you won't make any money."
