Chapter 185 Li Lan

On the fourth day of the first month, Li Haitang went to the wang family and the Mr. Tang family to pay new year's greetings. The two families had a special occasion. They had lunch at the wang family at noon and dinner at the Mr. Tang family at night. After dinner, Li Jianguo drove over to pick her up.

On the fifth day of the first month, Liu Fen led his father and mother around the nearby village. Li Haitang and others were watching tv and playing at home. Li Jianguo took Li Tao to help his uncle clean up the livestock shed and prepare for the sheep raising plan this year.

On the sixth day of the first month, Li Jiangang and Li Jianhua were going to Yangcheng to look for Li Lan. Li Jianguo drove them to tan city to take a bus and sent the Liu family back. Li Haitang also took a bus to tan city. It was the morning of the seventh day of the new year that she left for Hushi. She decided to stay at lin peipei's house for the night.

Lin peipei bought the tickets for the li brothers at two o' clock in the afternoon. They went to her place to get the tickets after lunch at the Liu family. After sending the brothers on the train, Li Jianguo gave Li Haitang some advice before driving back to Ping shan town.

Lin family took over the Lin family in tan city, and the business was not bad. Except for her aunt who often came to harass her at the beginning, the other time was not much different from the previous business situation. Now it was Lin Peipei's mother who did aunt Fen's work in the shop. Lin uncle and another employee went out to deliver the goods. Lin Haowen, who came home from school, occasionally helped out. Lin peipei and lin Hao Ran also helped out during the winter and summer holidays.

Although she still owed Li Haitang a lot of money, she did not urge them to pay it back, but the Lin family people were obviously very honest people, the family worked together in just over a year to pay off more than half of the time, and the other half was estimated to be paid off before Lin Peipei graduated from high school.

Lin family people were very grateful to her, and her parents treated her like a relative. Now that Liu Fen and Li Jianguo had formed a new family, they were considered real matchmakers. With this relationship, they got along more intimately.

At 9 am on the seventh day of the first month, lin peipei took her to the train.

Ji Dongming drove to Hushi on the eighth day of the first month to pick her up. This time, Xu Yueyang, Zhou Yunyang and Chu Xiaoman came. Jiang Chuheng was the only one who was missing. He had returned to the army. She didn't see him.

This trip to Hushi was very fulfilling. They learned a lot about factory management and business negotiation from Ji Dongming. These people all have clear professional development goals, and may not be engaged in this industry in the future, but they are willing to contact more, learn more from their predecessors, and enrich their life experience.

He stayed in Hushi for five days and returned to the provincial capital on the 14th of the first month.

In the new year, Li Jianguo recruited a group of workers from his hometown to work in the wholesale department. All of them settled in the same neighborhood for the time being. Zhou Chunmei also came with Liu Fen and studied with her in the shop.

Everything was going well, and the only thing that wasn't good was Li Lan.

Li Jiangang and Li Jianhua went to Yangcheng on the sixth day of junior high. The two brothers were very fast. On the eighth day of junior high, they found Li Lan who was working in the hair salon.

As soon as he saw them, Li Lan cried out for help. Although both of their brothers worked hard, they were also meticulous and immediately realized that the salon was not simple. The brothers picked up sticks and other defenses on the side of the road and dragged Li Lan away. They spent a lot of money on the way to the police station in the city center.

It turned out that the building behind the hair salon was a black casino, where gamblers were all gangsters, and there was a ruthless leader called brother pig, and Li Lan's cousin Zhao Nan did not know where to meet a man of this brother pig, was led into this casino to gamble money. Zhao Nan didn't have much capital. He stole all the money he had, but he was so addicted to gambling that he lost all his clothes before chinese new year. He owed a lot of money here and couldn't pay it back at all. He was afraid that someone was going to chop off one of his hands. Then he came up with an idea to sell his unknowing cousin Li Lan here to pay off his debts, and he ran away on his own.

Li Jiangang and the others didn't know what to do with the casino in the end. They took li lan back to Hunan province overnight. They were frightened all the way back to the shops in the provincial capital. They were really relieved.

Li Lan knew that she had gotten into a big trouble. No matter how much Li Jiangang scolded and scolded her, she didn't say anything back and just kept crying with her mouth flat.

She was controlled to work in the casino and lived a particularly miserable life. She ate a meal a day and was beaten if she did not do well. Fortunately, she was very ordinary, or else she would have been ruined by those people like other beautiful girls.

She had always been afraid, living in despair and fear every day. Fortunately, her father and third uncle came to her, and she seemed to have found a straw to save her life.

It was obvious that this experience had a great impact on her. Her eyes were no longer looking around like they used to be. She was staring in a certain direction, as if she had been greatly affected.

Li Jiangang had scolded her, scolded her, and was helpless to see her like this in the end. Now she was afraid to be too harsh on her, afraid to force her to follow Li Ting's old path.

Later, the three brothers of the li family discussed for a while and decided to take her with them for the time being, not to send her back to her hometown, nor to study arts, etc., so they decided to calm her down before making other plans. In the end, it was Liu Fen and Zhou Chunmei who led her to work in the shop, which gradually brought her back to her senses.

It was around 5: 30 pm when Li Haitang returned to the wholesale department. The other workers were working in the warehouse. Li Jianguo took two people out to deliver the goods. Liu Fen took Zhou Chunmei and Li Lan to clean the shop.

When Li Lan saw her coming back with her luggage, she obviously shook her body, then lowered her head as if to call out to her, and fiddled with the mop for a few times before quickly hiding in the tea room behind her.

"She's..." Li Haitang raised her eyebrows slightly and pointed at her leaving figure in confusion. This was the first time she had seen such a timid Li Lan.

Zhou Chunmei came over to help her with her luggage and said in a voice that could be heard by two people, "Speak later."

Liu Fen smiled at her and arranged, "Chunmei, go back to the dormitory with haitang first. She just came back from the long train. She must be very tired. Go back and let her rest in your room first."

"Okay." Zhou Chunmei went to the counter to take his small bag, took the key, and helped li haitang to take his luggage, "Let's go."

Li Haitang glanced at the pantry and saw Li Lan peeking at her through the crack in the door. Suddenly, she thought of Duan Jinqiao as well, but Duan Jinqiao was shy, and she was anxious and scared?

She knew the result on the way back, and she was right. It turned out that she was more afraid to meet unfamiliar people.

After hearing about her experience, Li Haitang was glad that he had asked his second uncle to look for her as soon as possible. Fortunately, he pulled her out of the mire and hoped that she would change from now on. No matter what, she was still a child under the age of 16. Even though her second uncle was disappointed in her, she was also his daughter. It was strange to see her so heartless.

Li Lan's condition has been much better these days. Today, a customer came to order, and her aunt asked her to make tea to welcome the guests. Although she was slow, she still brought out the tea. On the first two days of her return, all the men in the shop were working at the same time. Their voices were a little loud. They were talking at the top of their lungs while they were eating. The noise was so loud that she was scared and scared. She hid in a corner with the bowl in her hand and shivered all over. Second Jiu's eyes were red at the time."

Zhou Chunmei heaved a deep sigh like an experienced adult. Although Li Lan had gone astray, she was still her cousin. When she saw her miserable appearance when she came back, her heart ached.

"Did you hear from that Zhao Nan?" Li Haitang had never seen such a heartless person. Li Lan had been led astray by him, and now he even sold her.

"No, I heard that Li Lan went there to pay off his debts and ran away. Hmph, that kind of person will not end well in the future."

Zhou Chunmei was indignant. This cousin was really a piece of trash. She told her, "Second Jiu called back and gave her second aunt a good scolding. This time, her second aunt didn't do anything wrong. She went back to her mother's house and made a scene. She couldn't find her nephew to settle the score, so she went to her mother's sister-in-law to settle the score. My mother said that she slapped her several times, and that she had scratched her arm a lot. It was Li Lan's grandmother who came forward to persuade her to come back."

"Well, she's a big part of Li Lan's responsibility for what happened to her. I hope that after this, both of them have changed."

The two of them went back to the dormitory as they spoke. Li Haitang went to the bathroom to take a shower, opened the suitcase while wiping her hair, and took out a bag of gadgets. "Chunmei, I brought you some small gifts. You can pick them out yourself."

"Wow, it's so beautiful. These key chains and hair clips are so beautiful. They look even better than what I saw in Yangcheng." Little girls like this kind of thing, she picked up a few of them inside, smiled and said: "Anyway, you have a big bag here, I will not be polite to take a few more oh."

"Well, take a few more for chunxing." Most of Li Haitang's friends were girls, so she brought these gifts.

Zhou Chunmei picked a few more that she liked. As soon as she picked them out, footsteps came from outside. She got up and opened the door. Seeing that aunt Fen and li lan had come back first, she said, "Auntie, Li Lan, come here quickly. Sister haitang has brought back a lot of beautiful hair clips. Come and take a look."

"Yeah, haitang must be for us. Let's pick a few." Liu Fen walked over with a smile on his face, not forgetting to pull Li Lan who was following her. "Li Lan, come and pick some pretty ones too."

Li Haitang stood wiping his hair with a dry towel. Seeing that Li Lan was still a little scared, he kept hiding behind Liu Fen. She was not tall, and she was now very small, and her eyes were obviously timid and slightly flustered, like a little pitiful abandoned.

"Li Lan, don't be afraid. It's all your own people. Be bold."

Even though she used to have a bad relationship with her and disliked what she had done before, now that she had become like this, her attitude had naturally changed. Li Haitang tried to speak to her in a softer tone.
