The oval face man gently closed the door, tiptoeing out, afraid to wake Tao Qing from his sleep.
Her nervous breakdown in recent years was getting more and more intense. She didn't know when she would be able to get that child back, or whether or not she would be able to fulfill her long-cherished wish.
As soon as she stepped out of the door, she felt something crashing into her back, which gave her a fright. When she turned around, she saw that it was Li Yugeng.
"It's you. You scared me to death."
"Is she asleep?"
"Yes, it took a while before she finally fell asleep. What, do you need her for something?"
Li YuGeng was not exactly close to Tao Qing, but she did treat him well and everyone took her seriously. Tao Qing, as one of his mother's few good friends, took care of him.
Tao Qing once had a happy marriage, but due to the loss of his younger daughter, it is now fragmented.
He also felt that there was no limit to what he could say. Was it because people with similar personalities always gathered together? For example, his mother, or Tao Qing. In the end, both of them died with their lives on the line.
"It's the same for me."
He raised his chin. "Let's talk in the car."
The oval face followed him into the car. Before he could settle down, he heard Li Yugeng ask, "Is Cao Xiaolan making something for Aunt Tao?"
Upon hearing the name, Guanzi was stunned. It took him a long time to realize who Cao Xiaoling was.
"How do you know her?" The first thought that came to her mind was something else. "I remember that you are experiencing life in this village. Don't tell me you are living in Cao Xiaolan's village?"
Li YuGeng nodded. "She's in some trouble now. Maybe she won't be able to deliver the goods on time."
He still remembered what Cao Xiaoling said. It seemed like she was worried about that too.
She was right to worry.
Tao Qing was a generous person who treated money as dirt, but he was also a very stubborn woman. He hated people who went back on their word the most.
He could guarantee that if Cao Xiaolian did not deliver it on time, Tao Qing would definitely hold her accountable. By then, Cao Xiaolian would not be able to handle the money alone.
As expected, upon hearing those words, his complexion immediately changed.
"That can't be right. She was also swearing at that time that she would invite someone to her house at the end of the month just for her things. What kind of person do you think she would be doing this?"
Li Yugeng did not say anything. Cao Xiaolan was indeed in the wrong with this matter. No matter what, she should not agree without hesitation. But there was a reason, and she didn't do it on purpose. What else could she do?
"Her mother is very ill and her sister is going to join the army. She's the only one home right now." Li YuGeng briefly explained, "And it might cost all his money to treat it. This disease is likely to cost a lot of money."
The oval face was stunned. "What's wrong with that?" You need to go through so much trouble. "
"Tuberculosis."
When the oval face man heard this, he could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. "Why is she so unlucky? Let's talk about this."
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt that what he said was not right. Indeed, Li Yugeng's face had turned black.
"Then I can't decide on this matter. Think about it, how could I control Teacher Tao's temper? Furthermore, the invitation had already been sent out. Could it be that we will still be able to take it back? "
"We can go to the hotel."
"Just tell me, what kind of good restaurant is this?" Although a oval face was not as good as being born in the capital, he still came from the capital. All sorts of people despised him.
"Well, I don't think you're right about that."
"Even if you appear and deal with Teacher Tao, will you be able to control her in the future? It's fine for us to spend a bit of money for the disease, but for her, it's probably an astronomical figure. Can you keep on helping? "
Li YuGeng seemed to be deep in thought. Suddenly, a perverted smile appeared on his oval face. "However, if she is your girlfriend, your Li family's future daughter-in-law, then it's nothing. Not to mention having a lung cough, it's fine even if she were to have a lung."
"I don't have that kind of relationship with her." Li YuGeng frowned and immediately cleared his mind, "She's just pitiful. You probably don't know that she doesn't have a father."
He twitched his mouth and said, "There are so many pitiful people. There are even people who ask for food on the streets. Why don't you go throw some money at them?"
Li YuGeng filtered this sentence selectively, asking seriously, "Then according to you, what should I do?"
"How would I know?" The melon seed face couldn't help but roll his eyes, but the person in front of him was one of Tao Qing's most caring people. She was willing to love him for his sake.
"How about this, I'll be fine tomorrow morning. When the time comes, I'll go find her and see where her current problems are. Once I find them, I'll think of a way to solve them."
Although the parents of this generation were all ordinary civil servants in their home, they were all good at business. Perhaps they had inherited talents in this area, so she always had many ideas about these things.
Tao Qing didn't like the smell of copper, so he never showed his oval face. But Li Yugeng had heard it before, so his first choice was to show his oval face.
As expected, he just needed to find her.
"Alright, remember the past tomorrow. She's been home for the past two days."
His words almost made his nose go crooked, "Hey, I'll help you. At least you should come and pick me up."
"Why should I pick you up?" Li YuGeng looked at her strangely and said, "Now that this matter has been settled, Aunt Tao will be happy. "Since you care so much about Aunt Tao, it's only right that you do something for her."
He cursed in his heart, 'With this mouth, I won't be able to find a wife in the future.
"Right." Li YuGeng added, "Don't let Cao Xiaoling know that I've come looking for you."
"Why?" She didn't understand. It was all about repaying kindness with kindness. A hero saving a beauty. She had thought that Li Yugeng was playing this game too.
"No reason." With these words, he frowned and began to chase them away, "If there's nothing else, get out of the car. I have to go back as well."
He got off the car in a daze and watched as the car whizzed past in front of him. Only then did he react, "Hey, at least you should take me home."
Before the rooster could crowed, Cao Xiaoling had already woken up.
Since something happened at home, she had to deal with the living things at home first. The house would be thrown out for now, but there was no one to take care of these things. She would be dead in two days.
She did not intend to sell this chicken. There were only five hens and a rooster in total. They were all killed and the stew was used to nourish Mother Cao's body.
She had never killed a chicken before, so she was initially rather scared. However, when she was about to make a move, she closed her eyes and steeled her heart before being cut apart. After the bleeding, he scooped up some scalding water …
Water, began to pluck chicken feathers.
By the time he had finished dealing with it, the sky was already bright.
Next, he would hang the chicken on the air and dry it. This way, he would be able to eat for a longer period of time. Otherwise, it's too easy to break things in the middle of summer.
Just as he was about to hang up, he heard the yard door creak. He turned around and saw a oval face in shorts and a T-shirt in front of him.
She must have just woken up. Her hair was slightly perked up and she wore a pair of sunglasses. She really looked like a male and female dude.
Cao Xiaolian's heart sank. What was coming was finally coming.
It was good that he didn't have to come. It would be better to clarify some matters as soon as possible.
"You're here." Cao Xiaolian put on the last chicken in the pot and hung it up. Then she bent over and picked up the pot. "Come in."
Cao Xiaolian washed her hands, trying to figure out what to say. Suddenly, she heard him ask, "What's your main problem right now? Let's go straight to the point. Let me see if I can help you."
Hearing this question, Leng Ying was momentarily stunned. She did not know how to reply and could only look at her foolishly.
The oval face man picked up the sunglasses. There was no sunlight in the room, so there was no point in using them.
"Don't just stand there. I still have things to do in the afternoon, so let's get everything out of here. If you see any problems, just break them apart and clear them out."
"Let's put it this way. You might think it's a problem, but in my opinion, it's not a problem at all. If I am truly unable to solve this problem, then don't think about it blindly, and don't think that you can't. "
Even her grandfather sighed with emotion. If he had been born a hundred years ago, he would definitely have been an imperial merchant.
Cao Xiaolian was hesitant, but she didn't know what to do. She decided to tell him about it.
Moreover, if he didn't succeed, there wouldn't be any loss. Since he was already like this, how could he be afraid of being worse?
After saying those words nervously in his heart, he saw a disdainful look from the oval face.
"I was wondering what it was about, wasn't it just money?"
She picked up a cucumber that she had picked in the morning from the stove and took a bite. With a slurred mouth, she said, "You can get people to invest in it."
"Who can I find to invest with? One thousand yuan is not a small sum." Cao Xiaoling frowned, "Besides, I don't have any resources here right now. I don't have anything. How can I convince others?"
Her worry was true. Right now, she only had Tao Qing as a deal. If others could not produce him after investing in him, wouldn't his money go down the drain?
The oval face man ate the last mouthful of cucumber and said, "I'm a living person standing right in front of you. If you don't come and look for me, why are you trying to get closer to me?"
Actually, she originally wanted to say that she could go to Li YuGeng, not to mention a thousand, even a hundred thousand wouldn't be a problem.
However, the words that came out of his mouth became his.
Firstly, Li Yu Geng reminded him not to say anything more, and secondly, she was genuinely optimistic about Cao Xiao Lian.
She could even guarantee that if Cao Xiaolian did it herself, she would not have to worry about business. With a little guidance, she might even be able to do something big in the future.
Tao Qing didn't like the smell of copper on people around him, but artists needed money, too, unless they were downtrodden artists.
Nowadays, his parents were both public servants. Other than having no other income, they also had to think for their own future. After all, they couldn't possibly live like this for the rest of their lives.
Therefore, Cao Xiaolian's problem was a good opportunity for her.
Cao Xiaolian was stunned, "You said you want to invest in me?"
She wasn't related to him in any way, so why was she being so nice to him?
"No, no, no. It's not an investment. It's a partner." There were also some who were dissatisfied with her plan. "Also, this plan that you guys made at the beginning was a bit hasty. Why don't you arrange for them to meet each other. Let me make a new plan."
"Set what?"
"Of course it's to set the price and stock." He looked at her strangely and said, "Since I'm investing, I want to buy shares. What you guys said in the beginning doesn't count. We have to start over. Do you understand?"
