Chapter 54 053. Everyone says I’m not angry anymore
"You must have misunderstood."
Zhou Yi sat up straight and said seriously, "The owner of Haiwei probably doesn't have that intention. He's a businessman, and businessmen don't do anything without profit. Seeing that our business is booming, it's normal for him to want to poach our head chef."
"I definitely don't have any intention of looking for someone else, so don't worry or be angry."
"I'm not angry."
Lei Li smiled, like a smiling tiger, "I'm asking you seriously, if you don't marry into the family, would you rather choose a young wife from the village or from the county town?"
"The owner of Haiwei runs a restaurant. Since you have good cooking skills, you will definitely be the head chef. When the time comes, he will help you find other people to do business, and the restaurant will be yours in the future."
"Besides, the boss is so rich, his daughter must be spoiled and pampered... Didn't you say you don't love me? This is perfect."
“…”
Zhou Yi looked at him for a long time with a look of astonishment. Seeing that he looked sincere and didn't look like he was deliberately trying to trick him, his ominous premonition grew even stronger.
Someone just fell to the ground.
Now it is "separation of flesh and blood".
"Why aren't you talking?"
Lei Li was unusually patient. "Can't decide, or do you want both? Don't worry about me getting angry. I really want to know what you think."
“……?”
Zhou Yi became even more suspicious. Did Lei Li dig such a big hole for the knife man now? He wasn't even this meticulous when catching and slaughtering wild boars, right?
Puzzled, I simply told the truth, "Then I don't want any of them."
"I'm not angry anymore."
Lei Li picked up the soup bowl and placed it in front of him with a "bang". "I'm asking you to choose one now, so you choose one for me, understand? Don't give me any trouble."
“…”
The first time Zhou Yi saw someone of good character forced into prostitution was when she forced her own husband to cheat.
He thought for a moment and said, "Whether they are from the countryside, the county town, or the provincial capital, there is no difference in my eyes."
"I used to love reading Sanmao's books. I once heard her say that her husband, Hexi, asked her, 'Do you really have to marry a rich man?'"
"Sanmao said, 'If I don't love him, I won't marry him even if he's a millionaire. If I love him, I'll marry him even if he's a multi-millionaire.'"
"He Xi heard this and said, 'After all, you still have to marry a rich man.'"
"Sanmao replied: There are exceptions. If it's with you, as long as I have enough money to eat, I'll pay for it. I can eat less in the future."
"if……"
Zhou Yi paused and said, "If I really have to choose one, then I would choose the boy from the countryside, because my husband is from Sanlihe Village."
“…”
Lei Li looked at him without saying anything, but his eyes revealed a hint of contempt and disdain for the playboy's smooth talk.
Zhou Yi: “???”
"I'm being serious. I don't know why you're acting weird right now. You used to be upset directly with me, but now you're suddenly beating around the bush."
Zhou Yi didn't quite understand, but he respected her. "Are you playing some game? If you really want to tease me and find a reason to cheer me up, then you can be happy now, because I was really scared by you just now."
“…”
The smile on Lei Li's face and eyes slowly disappeared, and his expression was calm but also scrutinizing.
After staring for a long while, he suddenly curled his lips and put away his bowl and chopsticks, "It's boring. You eat slowly, I'm done. Business is not busy now, you can come out later."
“……?”
Zhou Yi was a little confused.
Was Lei Li really teasing him, or was there something wrong? He felt something was amiss. He even took away the half bowl of soup he hadn't finished.
“That’s my soup!”
"I haven't finished my soup yet..."
—
Zhou Yi finished his meal but still didn't understand. After the shopkeeper Haiwei came, Lei Li suddenly became like this. Did Haiwei say something to him?
Want to poach people and sow discord?
Zhou Yi never liked to make malicious assumptions about others, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. Taking advantage of the fact that few people were eating in the afternoon, he told Lei Li that he was going to buy some meat and went out.
He wants to go find Haiwei to find out.
After hearing this, the shopkeeper Haiwei said: "???"
When he saw Zhou Yi coming, he was very happy, thinking that Lei Li had changed his mind and was willing to let Zhou Yi come to work for him. He didn't expect that Zhou Yi came to call him to task.
Or is it the crime of sowing discord...
——Although Zhou Yi asked in a very subtle and tactful way, as a businessman, being good at dealing with people and observing people’s expressions is his forte!
But he was really wronged!
Even if he had ten guts, he wouldn't dare to steal the girl from a guy who could kill wild boars! Besides, his daughter was only ten years old, what kind of marriage would she have?!
"I talked to Lei Lifulang first instead of you about that matter because I knew that Lei Lifulang was the boss of your family. I didn't expect him to misunderstand me. Oh, tell me... what's going on?"
"Even if I want your recipe again, I wouldn't go so far as to find a father for my daughter, right? Who else would dare to want you except Lei Lifulang?"
The shopkeeper Haiwei was almost numb.
Zhou Yi was also numb.
Although it is true that he is older and looks a bit fierce, it is also quite hurtful. It feels like he is suddenly the same age as the 40+ Haiwei owner...
but.
Excluding the owner of Haiwei, the problem should be with Mr. Miao. I happen to be going back to harvest the grain in two days, so I can ask him.
—
Lei Ji fast food restaurant is closed today.
The family of four, along with two puppies, an ox cart and a cow, returned to Sanlihe Village.
The rice is ripe.
It's time to go back and harvest the rice.
I didn't go back when the rice was almost ripe, so I asked Miao Fulang to drive the ducks into the duck pen, and I also asked Miao Fulang to feed the pigs and chickens at home.
No one’s help was in vain.
Lei Li hired Miao Fulang at twenty cents a day.
Feeding two meals a day, cutting grass for pigs and chickens, picking some snails to feed ducks, and picking up eggs. Compared with the hard labor at the port, it is not a very tiring job, and the price is already quite high.
The mushrooms picked by Miao Fulang are also priced separately. According to the market price in the county, they are a little higher than those sold at the town market. Naturally, Miao Fulang is willing to do it.
You can also bring your baby.
Xiaobao likes to follow his dad to feed the piglets and chickens, and also likes to follow his dad to the fields to pick snails and weed Uncle Lei’s vegetable garden.
I can eat delicious eggs every day. I have gained some weight in the past month and my little face is white and tender.
certainly.
This was because Miao Fulang had become rich, so he bought eggs from Lei Li at two cents each, and when Lei Li paid him his wages, he would deduct the money and give it to him.
It was Miao Fulang who cleaned the Lei family's house. Lei Li and the others only found out when they got home. Liu Ye'er had always said that Miao Fulang was kind-hearted and hardworking.
"She just married a bad husband. That bastard Niu Dali is just lucky to have a good father..."
Liu Ye'er sighed and asked Lei Li to help Miao Fulang as much as he could. It was really not easy for a husband to earn money and take care of children at the same time.
"I know."
Lei Li nodded, then looked at Zhou Yi, looking thoughtful, as if he wanted to say something but didn't want to pay attention to him.
Zhou Yi: “?”
He was bewildered by the looks he received, and thinking back he hadn't done anything wrong in the past few days, it was even more strange. How had he offended Lei Li again?
This word "又" is very spiritual.
Zhou Yi never thinks he is wrong, but Lei Li disses him as he pleases. However, he has become sarcastic in the past two days.
Sometimes he felt that Lei Li was too good at speaking in sarcastic tones, as if he didn't even realize he was unhappy, but when he asked Lei Li why he was unhappy, he wouldn't say.
It seemed as if Lei Li himself couldn't explain it.
"You and your parents should rest at home. I'll deliver Mr. Miao's wages. Twenty-seven days..."
Zhou Yi calculated, "It should be 540 wen. The money for the mushrooms has already been paid at the store. You said you don't need to deduct the money for the eggs. Consider it as a supplement for Xiaobao."
"You remember it clearly."
Lei Li glanced at him and gave him the money and something he had prepared earlier.
Zhou Yi subconsciously weighed it and found it a bit heavy, more than 540 coins, maybe 600 copper coins?
Lei Li is like this every time.
Do good things silently.
Zhou Yi smiled knowingly, "I'll be leaving first. Oh, don't touch the firewood in the yard. I'll chop it when I get back, and I'll fetch the water when I get back."
"Um."
Lei Li looked at him again.
Like a roll of the eyes.
Zhou Yi: “……?”
I didn't understand why I got hit again. Maybe there are a few days every month when my brother is not feeling well.
His comrade's girlfriend always picks on him for no reason. She just gets angry suddenly and asks his comrade to buy gifts to appease her.
well.
Maybe all wives in the world are like this?
——Should he buy a gift to appease Lei Li? What should he buy? A wooden hairpin, a hairband... No, how could he buy anything when he had no money?
Zhou Yi, who only had ten copper coins on him and could hardly afford anything, said: "..."
Suddenly I felt that I was more pitiful.
—
When Zhou Yi went to give money to Miao Fulang, he met Niu Dali again.
I don’t know how many days Niu Dali hasn’t slept. His face is pale and the dark circles under his eyes are almost as heavy as a panda’s. He hides when he sees me and is timid inside.
"What are you doing at my house? I haven't beaten Miao or Xiaobao recently, nor have I robbed him of his money."
“…”
Zhou Yi was too lazy to pay attention to him.
I gave money to Miao Fulang and a gift to Xiaobao.
It is an embroidered little tiger.
Mrs. Zhu was pregnant and loved embroidering children's toys. She accidentally embroidered too many, so Lei Li asked her for one to give to Xiaobao.
Xiaobao only had an old wooden horse to play with and no playmates, so he was very happy to get the little tiger. He held it in his arms cherishingly and said thank you to Uncle Zhou and Uncle Lei in a baby voice.
"You're welcome."
Zhou Yi touched his head, causing Xiaobao to shyly hide in his father's arms, with his rosy little face sticking out and smiling.
if……
It's not bad for him and Lei Li to have a child like this. It doesn't matter if he is obedient and gentle, or naughty and mischievous. As long as he doesn't break the law, small mistakes can be forgiven.
——As long as they are not called Xiaozhuang or Xiaomei.
wrong.
It seems that he does not have the right to name it.
“…”
Zhou Yi paused, hesitated for a long time, and finally sighed.
Okay.
Lei Zhuang and Lei Mei are also good, and they sound quite... quite like Lei Li.
