Chapter 153 Going to Yaoxian Tower
But this time their hopes will be dashed. Even if Li Mingyu doesn't continue working here, he will never do anything to let Li Mingxia down.
"Sister Mingxia, don't worry, I will never do that." Li Mingyu said firmly.
Li Mingxia looked at Li Mingyu and asked, "Did you reject them directly in front of them?"
Li Mingyu nodded and looked at Li Mingxia with some confusion. Shouldn't he just refuse directly?
Li Mingxia looked at the confused little girl and sighed in his heart. Although she was smart, she was not smooth enough after all. However, it was precisely because of this that he felt confident in handing such an important matter to her.
"You should agree to them on the surface first, and agree very readily." Li Mingxia pulled Li Mingyu to sit on the kang and spoke to her in detail.
Li Mingyu didn't say anything. This matter was beyond her understanding, so she had to wait for Li Mingxia to explain it to her.
"Will grandma and second aunt be very angry if you directly refuse?" Li Mingxia was very patient and analyzed the interests involved bit by bit.
Li Mingyu nodded. "Yes, he was very angry and said that I had grown arrogant and was no longer obedient."
Based on Li Mingxia's understanding of these two people, it is estimated that what they said is much more than just these two sentences, but Li Mingyu did not say it.
"Did he say anything that if you don't listen, you won't be allowed to work here?" Li Mingxia asked with a smile.
Seeing that Li Mingxia had guessed it, Li Mingyu nodded and said with some pride, "I'm not afraid. I told you directly that if you don't let me go to work, I won't be able to earn back the nine cents. I will listen to you and you have the final say."
When Li Mingxia heard this, he also laughed.
It is indeed true. The people in the old house do not want a "wooden person" like Li Mingyu to come, because they cannot gain any extra benefits. But at the same time, they also know that if Li Mingyu did not come, no one else would be able to make this money.
"Take these with you when you go back tonight." Li Mingxia said to Li Mingyu, pointing to a small bag of white sugar.
"That won't do!" Li Mingyu shook his head vigorously. This small bag of white sugar costs almost a hundred coins. How can this be possible!
"Just say that you packed it up secretly when I wasn't paying attention, and then see how grandma and second aunt-in-law react, and then tell me the next day. Don't worry, this little money will not be wasted." Li Mingxia said thoughtfully.
For the sake of future stability, Li Mingxia really doesn't mind spending a little money, and the people in the old house don't think of eating this candy for free.
"Then I'll listen to you, Sister Mingxia." Li Mingyu said immediately.
Ever since the incident with Li Erlang, Li Mingyu has been wanting to work for Li Mingxia. Now, he finally has this opportunity. In Li Mingyu's heart, Li Mingxia is almost the same as Li Erlang.
"Okay, let's get to work."
Another batch of things was delivered. Li Mingxia and Li Mingyu had no time to chat anymore. They stood up and started to get busy.
When it was almost evening and the workers had all gone home, Li Mingxia and Li Zhengpin went to the town overnight with the five kinds of dried fruits they had made today.
"If you ask me, we should go tomorrow! It's so late at night. Why not let your father go with us?" Zhang looked at Li Mingxia and Li Zhengpin, still feeling a little worried.
In fact, Li Mingxia had planned to go to the town recently, but Zhang refused to let him go no matter what. In the end, he had no choice but to force Li Zhengpin to go with him.
"Mom, don't worry. It's an official road both ways. We're using a ox cart, so we don't have to walk. My brother is still here, so there's nothing to be afraid of." Li Mingxia said with a smile.
Zhang thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case, so she slowly put her mind at ease.
"Go early and come back early, don't delay at all, do you hear me?" Zhang's voice kept coming from behind.
"Got it! Mom!"
"Mingxia, if it doesn't work, it doesn't matter if our price is a little lower. After all, we are in the village. What can the dried fruit shops in the town do to us whether they are willing or not?"
Along the way, Li Zhengpin was worried that Li Mingxia's things would not sell well or would not be able to sell. In fact, whether or not to make money is a small matter. What Li Zhengpin fears most is that Li Mingxia will be unhappy because his things will not sell well.
"Brother, don't worry, I know what you mean. Don't say that we have no problem selling the things in our family. Even if we do, I won't take it seriously. It's not like our family will be so poor that we can't have food to eat if these things can't be sold for a while." Although Li Mingxia said this, he still comfortably accepted the concern from his family.
"Look, aren't we paid once a day now? This makes it convenient for me to change people whenever I don't want to do it anymore or want to change people."
Li Zhengpin nodded in agreement, "Yes, you have always known this in your mind, I know."
After comforting Li Zhengpin, Li Mingxia began to plan his own plan.
After arriving in the town, Li Mingxia did not go to the dried fruit shop, but went to Yaoxianlou.
"Is this Miss Li?"
The waiter at Yaoxianlou knew Li Mingxia, and he immediately went to greet her when he saw her coming.
"Miss Li, how come you are free to come here today? Are you here to have dinner?" The waiter was very enthusiastic and warmly welcomed Li Mingxia in.
"Is Mr. Xiao here? I have something to discuss with him." After Li Mingxia was taken to the private room on the second floor, she stated the purpose of her visit.
Li Mingxia was a little unsure about how to address Xiao Tianyue. After much thought, he decided to call him Young Master Xiao.
The young man really knew who Li Mingxia was talking about, and his attitude became more respectful. "Yes, Miss Li, please wait here for a moment."
Li Mingxia was originally worried that he had arrived a little late and would be disappointed, but he felt relieved when he heard that Xiao Tianyue was still there.
"We just came here without saying what we are going to do. Will they see us?" Li Zhengpin asked in a low voice.
Li Mingxia nodded, indicating that there was no problem.
If it were in the past, she would not be so sure, but after the cooking competition, she believed that even if she just came to drink a cup of tea, Xiao Tianyue would take the initiative to ask if he knew about it.
Sure enough, in less than a quarter of an hour, the door of the box was pushed open again, and the person who came in was Xiao Tianyue.
"Miss Li, you have come to visit. I am sorry for not welcoming you in person. I hope you won't blame me." Xiao Tianyue said with a smile.
"Mr. Xiao, I came here today to tell you something important, so please don't bother with the polite words." Li Mingxia had no intention of getting up from beginning to end, and he didn't intend to respond to his words that he couldn't tell whether they were polite or teasing.
