Chapter 115 The Brothers Go Home

The next day, the first batch of tables and chairs arrived.

Li Yan and Qiao'er went over to make arrangements, but they didn't do anything, and Uncle Niu gave three to each.

The five big and three thick men are very careful and assertive, but he does what they say, never contradicts, and looks upright. I don't know where Huang Xingye found such a talent.

However, Li Yan saw that he was looking at Qiaoer one more time, so he quickly pulled Qiaoer over and gave him a warning, but he must not have any other thoughts.

"My daughter is about the same age." Uncle Niu explained quickly.

"You misunderstood." Qiao'er also said, she could still distinguish the man's eyes.

Only then did Li Yan relax her vigilance, but she still reminded her a few words when she left the workshop. People's words are scary, and it doesn't matter if she is strong enough in her heart.

Just like Li Laosan, or his wife, people say that family ugliness should not be publicized, but they all publicized it, and both of them felt that they were at a disadvantage. They quarreled and quarreled every day, but they just didn't get along.

Li Laosan felt that the wife he spent money to marry back could not have children and she would take advantage of her, but it felt even worse for him to spend money to raise other people's children.

His thoughts are very simple, the current situation of his family doesn't need to be too picky, although her mother might complain that they are well matched, but seeing that they get along easily, Shen Muci thinks he can give it a try.

She didn't want to hear it, but there were too many people who said it, so she knew a little bit.

"I came back right after the exam, but I didn't see the result. In fact, I didn't know what to do." Shen Muci hesitated for a while, but he didn't dare to boast.

Mrs. Shen pulled Shen Muyin and asked non-stop, why did they come back together, how are they doing outside, and so on, before she slapped her head for a long time, "The township examination is over, how did you do?"

It's true that his wife has such thoughts, but she still wants to raise a good-looking one so that they can marry a good family in the future so that they can provide for the two of them in the future, or if they have no money and a good face, they can marry a wife without them worrying about it.

After hearing about Qiao'er, Shi He said that he could introduce a bodyguard to her. He had known her for many years and had a good character.

What Shen Muci wanted to say was perfunctory by his mother before he even opened his mouth.

This matter has become a joke with a radius of ten miles, and the two of them still acted as if nothing had happened, talking about themselves when they saw people, for fear that others would not know.

It's been a while since we saw each other, and she doesn't know how to get along with Shen Muyin. Siblings are not like siblings, and they are not as comfortable as when he is not at home.

"It's good to be back, you haven't been back for a long time." Mrs. Shen thought that he didn't do well in the exam, so she didn't dare to say anything more. She was satisfied to see that her son was safe and sound.

Shi He was stunned for a moment before he realized it, wishing he could slap himself in the face, "Then what should we do?"

Just about to go back to Shen's house, when he saw someone coming from a distance, he fixed his eyes and saw that it was Shen Muci and Shen Muyin brothers. Li Yan stopped, but his first thought was that their room was full of flour. Hurry up and move to the workshop.

The kitchen is quieter, it’s rare for them to be so active, and she doesn’t want to interrupt them, there is no mask, everyone works with a veil, and they don’t talk all the time, she can still accept it.

Qiao'er's eyes glanced over Shen Muyin and landed on Shen Muci.

Shen Muci was a little anxious, and glared at Shi He, what kind of matchmaker do you, a big man, quickly pull him aside, and let him find a way to dispel his mother's thoughts.

"I understand." Shi He breathed a sigh of relief, luckily nothing bad happened.

But she still didn't move, she stood there and waited for them to come to her.

Shen Muci felt flattered, he and his younger brother stood together, and a woman would look at him, and suddenly felt a thumping feeling.

Now with Qiaoer's help, Mrs. Shen wanted to cook a delicious meal for them herself, so there was nothing wrong with her. Fortunately, both Shen Muci and Shen Muyin were called to the study by Shen Nanzhou.

But Qiaoer just said hello, and then chased after her.

After a few words of pleasantries, Li Yan remembered to introduce Qiaoer, and Li Yan briefly explained the reason of the matter.

Mrs. Shen was overjoyed, thinking that it might be Qiaoer's fate, she quickly agreed.

They were still chatting, Li Yan took Qiao'er, and with the help of Uncle Niu, they moved all the flour and other things stored in their room to the workshop, and cleaned up the room along the way.

Thinking that she has no hope of establishing a female household, staying in the Shen family is not too bad, she can only hope that they can go higher and farther on the road of imperial examination.

After they finished all this work, Mrs. Shen was finally willing to let her two sons go to other things.

The next day Shi He asked for leave to visit his old friend, while Shen Muci stayed at home, thinking of finding an opportunity to talk about his affairs with his mother.

Seeing Shen Muyin and the others coming back together, the happiest person is Mrs. Shen and the others.

It was best for her to think that way.

With the addition of Shi He and Guo Liu in the family, Qiao Er felt much more relaxed.

The family happily ate a meal, and chatted for a long time after the meal was over before the long-awaited reunion ended.

But Mrs. Shen and Qiao'er had to go to the workshop to work, and Li Yan and Shen Qingrou also went to the workshop together.

This time Li Yan saw something strange but learned to keep her mouth shut, and went back with Shen Muyin first.

Some of them who were younger than her were already mothers, and their youthfulness had long faded, and they looked a little mature or dull. At this moment, they only had a bit of liveliness that they should have at this age.

Her mother also showed a long-lost smile on her face. She, the oldest, only said a word or two occasionally, and listened quietly at other times, perhaps out of envy, or maybe because she missed her youthful appearance.

Li Yan looked at her side face, she didn't feel like a maid, but a rich lady.

"You go to the city, and when you come back, tell him that he has a sweetheart." Shen Muci said immediately.

Li Yan looked at the Shau Kei that was about to be filled, and when she heard Qiaoer calling herself, she clapped her hands and told others to continue, she was going to fry the fried horns.

It was quiet in the beginning, but it slowly became active when we got to know each other well. Li Yan looked at the young face and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

Qiaoer said that she is open-minded and not afraid of what others say.

It feels good to work together like this, and it is also one of the motivations for her to build this workshop, so that they can still occasionally have the opportunity to leave the family after they get married.

The uncle Niu in the workshop didn't want to mix in the crowd of women and waste words, so he guarded the gate.

In just one morning, the fifty catties of oil was almost finished, and the agreed delivery time had not yet arrived. Li Yan quietly took a look at the situation outside, and it should be possible to catch up.

Uncle Niu ran in and said someone was coming.

Li Yan hurriedly went out to have a look, and the task of frying the oil corners was handed over to Qiaoer.

But it wasn't the people from Jixianglou who came outside, but the county magistrate Zhao and his party.

What are they coming for?
