Under the big tree in the courtyard, Zhou Shi was telling the two of them what happened to her and Lin Xiaoyue today.
The two of them were shocked, especially Hei Gang, whose eyes were filled with admiration.
He knew that the girl was not ordinary, but he did not expect her to be so powerful.
She was the only one in Qingshi Town who could work with the owner of Ruyi Restaurant and the Zhou Trading Company at the same time.
After Li Xiao heard this, his expression looked a little off.
Even Lin Xiaoyue didn’t notice it when she entered.
“Yue’er is back!”
“Yue’er, come over quickly. I was just talking to your brother and Li Xiao about us doing business together!” Zhou Shi smiled and waved at Lin Xiaoyue.
Lin Xiaoyue smiled and asked Zhao Shanshan to bring Lin Xiaozhi to the backyard before she walked towards the crowd.
“I finally understand what it means to be a woman who is not inferior to a man! Not only did you help your sister-in-law, but you also helped her family. Thank you!” Hei Gang stood up and cupped his fists at Lin Xiaoyue.
He was not young, and his wife was looked down upon by her family for marrying him.
Lin Xiaoyue helped the Zhou family so much that his wife was able to show off in front of her sisters-in-law. In the future, he would be able to look his father-in-law and brothers-in-law straight in the eye.
Lin Xiaoyue quickly went forward to help Hei Gang up.
“Don’t be so polite! I can’t do this without Zhou Shi!”
Following that, Hei Gang and Zhou Shi gave Lin Xiaoyue another round of gratitude and flattery.
Finally, Ma Shi came to inform them that the meal was ready and invited everyone to the dining room for dinner.
There was a sumptuous feast on the table, and wine was prepared.
The Liu family and the Hei couple were very satisfied.
Chen Shi’s cooking skills were indeed not bad. With the condiments that they had, the dishes she made were actually not worse than Lin Xiaoyue’s.
They ate happily.
At the same time, the Zhao family members in the kitchen gathered around the table and ate to their heart’s content.
Although their current owners were not as well-off as the Zheng family, they were treated better.
The Liu family had few people, and there was no family drama. If Madam and Miss treated their servants well, they would have a good life in the future.
After the meal, Ma Shi and Chen Shi collected the dishes and washed them.
Lin Xiaoyue and Liu Shi were relieved.
The mother and daughter thought it was good to have servants.
Zhou Shi still didn’t want to leave with Hei Gang.
She said that she would be staying at the Liu family during this period of time to help in the workshop.
Hei Gang had only just made up with his wife, so he did not want to go back alone and stayed at the Liu family house.
After everyone returned to their rooms, Lin Xiaoyue brought Li Xiao to the big tree to have a talk with him.
“You seem to have something on your mind?” Lin Xiaoyue asked Li Xiao as she pulled him to the chair to sit with her.
Li Xiao was stunned. He did not expect Lin Xiaoyue to see through his pretense.
Seeing that Li Xiao did not speak, Lin Xiaoyue leaned her head on Li Xiao’s shoulder.
“What’s wrong?” She asked gently.
Li Xiao’s heart skipped a beat.
“Yue’er…”
“Yes.” Lin Xiaoyue replied softly.
Li Xiao suddenly let out a heavy sigh, then pulled Lin Xiaoyue into his arms.
Lin Xiaoyue instantly became worried.
“What’s wrong?” She pretended to be relaxed and asked Li Xiao with a smile.
“Can you not meet with the owner of Ruyi Restaurant?” Li Xiao said in a deep voice.
Lin Xiaoyue paused.
She came out of Li Xiao’s arms and looked at Li Xiao in confusion.
“Why?” She asked with a smile.
Li Xiao had a complicated expression.
“He is no ordinary man. 1 don’t want you to be too involved with him.”
Then, Li Xiao grabbed Lin Xiaoyue’s shoulders and looked into her eyes.
“Let’s just stay in Daishi Village, alright?”
He knew that his wife was very capable, and her abilities were not inferior to men.
If she was given the opportunity, she would be able to do something big sooner or later. Her goal would expand beyond Qingshi Town
However, he did not expect that this day would come so quickly.
Lin Xiaoyue’s heart trembled.
Suppressing the uneasiness in her heart, she smiled and looked at Li Xiao. “We are living in Daishi Village.”
“Although we have a manor now, I don’t plan to live there permanently. Daishi Village is our home.”
“Do you know the owner of Ruyi Restaurant?” Lin Xiaoyue asked..
