Chapter 241 Making money without involving relatives? Is that even acceptable?
Originally, Su Niannian wanted to wait for Gu Nan no matter how late it was.
However, Gu Nan explained that he was busy with things over there and didn't know when he would finish, so he was worried about leaving Su Niannian waiting for him alone in the state-run restaurant.
So the two of them agreed that if Gu Nan hadn't arrived by 1 p.m., Su Niannian would go home first.
Su Niannian had no choice but to nod in agreement.
After the two parted ways in the county town, Su Niannian carried her empty basket straight to Lü Hongliang's house.
First, deliver the seasonings to Lü Hongliang, and then have Lü Hongliang notify Lao Qian so that the vegetables and grains can be traded.
In this life, although Su Niannian felt that it was very easy for her to make money with her space, her vision was not limited to this.
She wanted to become the richest woman in the area, to become a great tree, to become Gu Nan's solid support and protective umbrella.
The economy is not fully open yet, so we can only operate on a small scale. Although the economy was officially opened up in 1978, the controls were not as strict as they are now.
At that time, Su Niannian will have plenty of ways to make money.
The thought of making money made Su Niannian a little happy.
When we arrived at Lü Hongliang's house, we could hear that the courtyard was very "lively".
It seems that Lü Hongliang is arguing with a woman.
There were other people's voices, making it somewhat noisy.
Su Niannian wanted to stand at the door and listen to what was going on inside.
But as soon as Su Niannian appeared at the door, the people inside already saw her.
"Brother Liang, Miss Su is here." One of Lü Hongliang's buddies patted Lü Hongliang on the shoulder and said to him.
Lu Hongliang looked towards the door and saw Su Niannian.
He quickly put aside what he was doing and went to the door to greet Su Niannian.
"It's quite lively." Su Niannian said, looking at Lü Hongliang meaningfully.
"Sigh." Lü Hongliang sighed.
Then he took the basket from Su Niannian's hands.
He then handed it to a friend, saying, "I'll have someone notify Lao Qian, and then we'll go in and get the money for you."
After speaking to Su Niannian, Lü Hongliang sighed helplessly.
Su Niannian looked at Lü Hongliang and felt that he seemed to have no energy left.
With such a lucrative business, life should be getting better and better every day.
How could he be in this mental state?
Su Niannian curiously observed the people in the courtyard.
Then, Lü Hongliang's wife was seen whispering something to a man who looked younger.
When the man looked at Su Niannian again, his eyes lit up.
The man looked ordinary, even somewhat slovenly, with long, messy hair.
He has an average appearance, height, and build.
But there's a roguish vibe to it, not the kind of cool roguishness, but the kind that makes people feel a little uncomfortable looking at it.
The way he looked at her, in particular, made Su Niannian feel uncomfortable.
Before Lü Hongliang could even come out, the man walked directly towards Su Niannian.
Lu Hongliang's wife followed him over.
Su Niannian stood still, and the man came over and spoke directly.
"You must be the young lady who provides braised meat seasoning for my brother-in-law, right? I'm Lü Hongliang's brother-in-law, and this is my sister," the man said to Su Niannian, pointing to Lü Hongliang's wife behind him.
Su Niannian remained silent.
Seeing that Su Niannian had no intention of paying attention to him, the man actually stretched out his hand in front of Su Niannian.
This means he wants to shake hands with Su Niannian.
Su Niannian did not reach out.
The man's expression changed when he saw that Su Niannian showed him no respect whatsoever.
"Isn't it a bit rude of you to ignore me like this?" the man said with a wicked grin.
His tone also became somewhat sarcastic.
His gaze continued to sweep over Su Niannian with an aggressive air.
"If your eyes keep wandering around, I won't hesitate to gouge them out for you!" Su Niannian said coldly.
At this moment, Lu Hongliang's wife became somewhat displeased when she saw that Su Niannian was so young and yet so disrespectful.
“My brother came over to greet you politely. Aren’t you looking down on him?” Lu Hongliang’s wife took two steps forward and stood opposite Su Niannian.
Su Niannian couldn't help but laugh at these words.
“I don’t think he’s polite,” Su Niannian said calmly, her gaze sharpening.
Seeing this, the guy who was helping Lü Hongliang with his work quickly came over to smooth things over.
They pulled Lu Hongliang's brother-in-law over.
It would have been better if he hadn't been pulled, because being pulled like that made Lü Hongliang's brother-in-law feel embarrassed.
He even pushed the person who was pulling him away.
It was at this moment that Lü Hongliang came out of the house.
That's when I saw this scene.
"What do you mean by this? Is this ever going to end?" Lu Hongliang strode over to his brother-in-law and raised his voice.
The voice was very impatient, clearly indicating that the brother-in-law was not well-liked.
"Brother-in-law, I just came over to say hello, what did I do wrong?"
"You guys, making money without even sharing it with your relatives, is that proper?"
"I saw someone come to deliver seasonings to you, so I came up to say hello, but this little girl didn't give me any face at all," said Lu Hongliang's brother-in-law, speaking with conviction.
These words made Lü Hongliang laugh in anger.
"Who does that young lady Su think she is? Why should she give you face? Who do you think you are!"
"You indulge in all sorts of vices, from eating and drinking to gambling and whoring, but you never do anything serious. Are you trying to ruin my business by whining here?"
Lu Hongliang was genuinely angry, even though he was usually considered to be a good-tempered person.
But these past few days, he's been really annoyed by his wife and his brother-in-law.
Human patience has its limits.
"Brother-in-law, that's not right of you. I just want to earn some money to get married. You can't expect me to enjoy all the good things in life without letting me have any benefits at all, can you?"
"You seem to get along quite well with this young lady. It would only take a few words to help your brother, yet you keep refusing. I'm starting to wonder if you're really my brother-in-law!"
As he spoke, Lü Hongliang's brother-in-law spat on the ground.
He swung one leg, looking rather nonchalant.
Su Niannian stood to the side with her arms crossed, watching.
Su Niannian wasn't stupid; she had already figured out what was going on.
I couldn't help but laugh at what Lu Hongliang's brother-in-law said.
"What are you laughing at?" When Lu Hongliang's brother-in-law saw Su Niannian's mocking smile, he instantly felt ashamed and looked at Su Niannian with displeasure.
"Yang Hongmei, I advise you to tell your brother to get out now, or don't blame me for throwing him out myself!"
Before Su Niannian could even speak, Lü Hongliang was about to explode. He said that if he could do that, how could Yang Jizu have the nerve to talk to Su Niannian like that?
