Chapter 40 Please Post
"Don't tell your father about your grandma's visit today." Lin Shuirou told Li Wanqing while making lunch.

Li Wanqing wanted to ask why?But seeing the pleading in Lin Shuirou's eyes and the serious expression on his face, the words he spoke were: "Okay, mother, I won't tell dad, not even Xiaochen."

After hearing the answer she wanted, Lin Shuirou continued to make lunch, while Li Wanqing silently lit the firewood.

The longer she spends with Li Rulin's family, the more doubts she has in her heart. Why did Mrs. Deng like Lin Shuirou when she first came in, but now Mrs. Deng is so harsh on Lin Shuirou?And Lin Shuirou doesn't associate with her natal family?

But she didn't dare to ask Lin Shuirou. She also tried to ask Li Rulin, but Li Rulin changed the topic and didn't want to talk more.

It seems that she can only dig out these two questions slowly. Of the two people who know the inside story, one can't ask, and the other doesn't want to. She also wants to ask Deng Shi, but remembering Deng Shi's attitude towards Lin Shuirou, She finally gave up the idea of ​​asking Mrs. Deng.

In the afternoon, Li Rulin and Li Muchen came back with an ox cart full of bricks, but Li Wanqing did not tell Li Rulin about Mrs. Ma's coming to ask for money.

Soon it was time for delivery again, and it was almost the Mid-Autumn Festival after the delivery this time, and the money was collected just in time for the festival.

"Father, sister, is it okay for our family to buy big moon cakes this year?" Li Muchen asked excitedly on the way to the town.

Li Rulin couldn't bear to refuse his son. The most important thing is that their family's life this year is much better than last year. Buying mooncakes is not difficult at all, so he agreed: "Okay, I will buy big mooncakes later when I collect the money."

"Oh, oh, there are mooncakes to eat this year." Li Muchen jumped up happily.

Seeing Li Muchen's joy, Li Wanqing was also happy. At the same time, she also lamented that the children in the countryside are easy to be satisfied, and they are so happy with only one moon cake.

When we arrived at Huayuanju, Ji Fang was responsible for inspection, weighing, and payment. Even the recipes were written by Ji Fang.

While receiving the payment, Ji Fang also sent a box of exquisitely packaged mooncakes to Li Wanqing.

"Brother Ji, this mooncake is too expensive, I can't accept it." Just by looking at the packaging, you can tell that this box of mooncakes is not cheap.

Seeing the exquisite packaging of the mooncakes, Li Rulin was also taken aback. After living for more than 30 years, this was the first time he saw such delicately packaged mooncakes. Jam is already a great gift to our family, we really can't accept such expensive mooncakes."

It was the first time for Li Muchen to see such a beautifully packaged mooncake, thinking that it must be delicious, but seeing that his father and sister said they couldn't accept it, he withdrew his longing gaze.

"Miss Li, Brother Li, this mooncake is brought back from the capital by my boss. It is a gift from others. You don't need money, so you can accept it." Ji Fang forcefully stuffed the mooncake into Li Wanqing's hands.

It was given to Ouyang Yuanhao by others. Li Wanqing remembered that in her previous life, the company would send mooncakes to the company every year during the Mid-Autumn Festival. She could receive two boxes every year, so she no longer refused.

"Thank you, Brother Ji."

"Miss Li, you are welcome." Ji Fang said politely, and took out a gold-plated invitation from his sleeve pocket and presented it to Li Wanqing with both hands: "Miss Li, on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, our restaurant will have a singing competition. Miss Li and your family can come to participate."

"Singing competition?" Li Wanqing took the invitation and asked curiously.

"Well, the winner has 100 taels of silver." Ji Fang replied with a nod.

"Is there 100 taels of silver?" Li Wanqing looked at Ji Fang with sparkling eyes, 100 taels, does she want to try it too?

Looking at Li Wan's bright eyes, Ji Fang had no choice but to obey the master, the master really knew Miss Li, and when he heard that there was 100 taels of silver, his whole person changed.

"Ah."

"Brother Ji, what songs are you going to sing on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival?" Li Wanqing looked around and asked in a low voice, seeing that there were only the four of them.

"Hehe, we'll know if Miss Li comes when the time comes." Ji Fang chuckled a few times, playing tricks, he couldn't mess up what his master told him.

What the master wants is to raise Miss Li's interest so that she can come to participate in the competition.

Li Wanqing was not discouraged when she couldn't get the information she wanted, thinking that the Mid-Autumn Festival would be five days away, and she would know when she came with her parents.

"Can I bring my family with me on this invitation?" Although Li Wanqing had already seen that the invitation was written to invite their family, but now she does not know how to read, so she can only pretend to be ignorant.

"It's written in the invitation that it's Miss Li's family." Ji Fang explained without taking the trouble at all.

"Well, I will definitely come on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival." For 100 taels, she went all out.

Just as Li Rulin wanted to stop it, Li Wanqing had already agreed and had no choice but to give up.

It was half an hour's journey from their home to the town, and it was late at night, so they didn't know if it was safe, and they never went out late.

Saying goodbye to Ji Fang, the three of you bought the necessities and went home.

Back home, Li Rulin told Lin Shuirou that she was going to the town to watch a singing competition on Mid-Autumn Festival night: "Singing competition?" Lin Shuirou was also shocked.

"Mother, the winner has 100 taels of silver." Li Wanqing happily announced that this was the biggest reason for her to go, and she went for the silver.

"How do I get there at night?" Lin Shuirou said the key point.This was what Li Rulin was most worried about, but it was beyond Li Wanqing's expectation.

Hearing Lin Shuirou's question, Li Wanqing was stunned, yes, why did she forget that it took half an hour to walk from Xiaoqing Village to the town point, nothing during the day, but at night, this safety issue is really a big problem .

"Don't ask Uncle Dazhu to borrow the ox cart anymore, and give some money to Uncle Dazhu." Li Wanqing's family borrowed all the ox carts from Li Dazhu's family.

"Can you not go?" Lin Shuirou asked.

"Mother, the invitations are all accepted, so why don't we go, and besides, if we really win the competition, there will be 100 taels of silver." Li Wanqing didn't want to give up such a good opportunity to make money.

"The 100 taels of silver has nothing to do with us. No one in our family can sing, and only unscrupulous people sing in front of people." Lin Shuirou looked serious.

"Mother, just ask me to participate in the marathon, and I promise to win 100 taels of silver back." Li Wanqing began to act like a baby again.

Lin Shuirou wiped the table with a rag, Li Wanqing asked Li Lin for help, Li Rulin pretended not to see, and went out to chop firewood. He didn't approve of it at first, but now even his wife objected, so of course he stood by her side.

Li Wanqing's black grape-like eyes rolled, and she came to Lin Shuirou's side to curry favor and said, "Mother, anyway, Brother Ji and Mr. Ouyang both know me, and I will wear a veil and change my name, so no one will recognize me." coming."

Seeing her daughter blinking her grape-like eyes at him, Lin Shuirou agreed for a moment, but thinking of letting her daughter show her face in front of so many people, Lin Shuirou hardened her heart.

Seeing that this trick didn't work, Li Wanqing rolled her black grape-like eyes again, thinking of other ways.
