Seven Hundred and Ninety-Eight. Hiding in Silence

Latest website: Before the Chinese New Year, Zheng Shan basically didn’t go anywhere. He just went to his grandma’s house to have a look, and delivered some New Year’s goods there. The rest just stayed at home.

On the twenty-seventh day, Yan Lele also went back. Zheng Shan warned: "Be sure to pay attention to safety on the road. Also, call me when you get home."

Yan Lele said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, I know, and didn't you send someone to protect me?"

Then he said to Zhao Ming beside him: "Brother Zhao, I will trouble you next."

Zhao Ming said quickly: "No trouble, no trouble."

Zheng Shan was really worried about Yan Lele going back alone. If there was an accident along the way, it would be too late to regret it.

And Zhao Ming and the others are all fine now, or most of the time, so we just arrange some work for them to do.

Zheng Shan gave some more instructions and then watched the two of them leave.

After returning home, Zheng Shan saw Li Yuan coming with his family.

"Why are you here? You're not at home preparing New Year's goods." Zheng Shan said with a smile.

"My daughter is getting taller and more juicy now. How are you studying now?"

Nannan raised her head and looked at Uncle Zheng. She was still happy at first, but now her face drooped when she heard the words. The answer to Zheng Shan's question was already obvious.

"Don't mention it. I don't know what's wrong with this girl. Even if she can't learn, I'll be worried to death." Li Yuandao.

Now Nannan is different from the malnourished yellow-haired girl before. She looks fair and clean, and her hair is black and shiny, and looks very smooth.

Coupled with a clean and beautiful little dress, she looks like a little princess.

Just looking at her like this, it's hard to imagine that the little yellow-haired girl from before could become like this.

Zheng Shan sat down, looked at the little girl who lowered her head and said nothing, "How about asking Qingqing to find a teacher to open a small stove for my daughter?"

"Isn't this too troublesome?" Zhu Yuefen asked.

Although he said that, there was a look of expectation on his face.

Yan Qingqing smiled and said: "It's okay, it's just a small matter. I can just ask my friends."

"Thank you very much." Zhu Yuefen said quickly.

Zhu Yuefen and Yan Qingqing immediately went to discuss how to educate their children, while Zheng Shan chatted with Li Yuan.

"I came here to hide and be quiet." Li Yuan said with some distress when he saw that no one was there.

Zheng Shan didn't understand what he meant.

Li Yuan explained it, and Zheng Shan understood it after listening.

In the past, when Aunt Li was here, Aunt Li would entertain all the relatives and friends in Li Yuan's house.

These people don't need Li Yuan to come and say anything.

In the past, when the Li Yuan family was in decline, it was even difficult to eat. When the children and the elderly could not afford to eat a meal a day, most of them were provided by Zheng Shan and his family in the big yard.

As for the relatives of Li Yuan's family, they basically pretended not to have seen it. Maybe they were in trouble, or maybe they thought that if they borrowed it, the Li Yuan family would not be able to pay it back, so they simply pretended not to see it.

But Aunt Li knew these things well.

Isn't Li Yuan developed now? In other words, it has been developed for a long time, and some people have come to his side.

This is inevitable for everyone.

But in the past, Li Yuan didn't need to be embarrassed about these matters. Aunt Li made the decision in everything.

Most of them were rejected directly by Aunt Gu, and she didn't even need to take into account the faces of both parties. After all, Aunt Li knew who had helped them during the difficult times in the past few years and who had avoided them like a plague. .

And these people knew it in their hearts, so after being rejected by Aunt Li, most of them couldn't say anything.

Now that Aunt Li is gone, Li Yuan is the only one left at home.

Compared to Aunt Li, Li Yuan is a junior to many of them, and she is easier to talk to.

If not, they will start to come to the door again one by one.

Taking advantage of the Chinese New Year, they can all visit legitimately. With two more elders, and a little talk, they feel that things will be easy.

Li Yuan was indeed annoyed. They came one after another with only one purpose, which was to get benefits, arrange positions, etc.

Li Yuan is not a fool. Of course he has a strong sense of control in his heart. He just laughs at the demands of these relatives.

This is Li Yuan now. If it were in the past, Li Yuan would have beaten people out long ago.

But Li Yuan wouldn't do that now, unless he really couldn't bear it, or else he was a relative after all.

So Li Yuan was already annoyed at home, so he ran to Zheng Shan to hide for a while.

After listening to Li Yuan's narration, Zheng Shan said with a smile: "This is your own choice, who can blame you."

If Li Yuan had a tougher attitude, then these people probably wouldn't be like this.

But every time Zheng Shan saw someone encountering this kind of thing, he would always feel sorry for his relatives.

Li Yuan said helplessly: "Hey, some things are really hard to say, and they are all my elders. I can't point their noses in them and tell them to go away."

"What's more, during my mother's funeral, they helped with all the things that were supposed to be done. They also helped with many things. Hey."

Li Yuan sighed as he spoke.

"If it doesn't work, just find two positions and throw them over. It depends on whether you can do it. If you can't do it, just drive them away." Zheng Shan said.

Li Yuan shook his head and said: "This precedent cannot be set. Once it is set, there will be another one. And I don't believe them, let alone forgive them."

When Zheng Shan heard this, he didn't say anything more. Li Yuan could choose whatever he wanted.

"Let's have some drinks later?" Zheng Shan said.

"If you're okay, just drink more with me. I'm really a little irritable now." Li Yuan said.

Zheng Shan smiled and said: "It's Chinese New Year, what can I do?"

At noon, Mingfenglou still comes to deliver food. Now, let alone ordinary meals, even New Year's Eve dinner needs to be delivered by Mingfenglou.

Now the only one in the family who can cook is Fu Meiyi, but Fu Meiyi also has to help take care of the children, and Fu Meiyi's craftsmanship is not very good.

Also, there are so many things that need to be prepared for the New Year’s Eve dinner that Fu Meiyi can’t handle it all by herself.

At noon, Zheng Shan and Li Yuan drank a lot, but they both restrained themselves. The New Year was coming soon, so they couldn't really feel dizzy during the New Year.

However, Li Yuan became confused when he was about to return home, acting as if he had drunk too much.

Zhu Yuefen didn't need anything from Li Yuan to understand what her husband meant, that he was pretending to be drunk.

When people came over to give gifts or visit relatives, Zhu Yuefen told them that Li Yuan was drunk.

This allowed Li Yuan to avoid a lot of things. Although he had to lie in bed most of the time, at least he was not as annoying as he was at the beginning.
