Dress up as a farm girl and make a lot of money with space

Chapter 76: Brother in Love or Brother-in-Law

There were people coming and going on the dock. The farmhands and vendors who knew Li Mingxia greeted him. Even Yuan's wife and Yuan Sheng smiled when they saw Li Mingxia.

The original wife has come to terms with it now. Without Li Mingxia's big bone soup yesterday, her steamed buns sales decreased by 30%. She now likes Li Mingxia more and more and no longer has the initial hostility.

"Why didn't you come yesterday? Lord He and the others came looking for you but found nothing." With a smile on her face, Mrs. Yuan took the initiative to talk to Li Mingxia.

Although he was somewhat surprised by Yuan's mother-in-law's attitude, Li Mingxia felt that the grudge had been resolved. As the saying goes, you should not hit someone who smiles at you, so he answered her: "Yesterday was my mother's birthday, so I rested at home for a day."

Mrs. Yuan said "oh" and looked at Li Zhengpin for a few times. She was about to say something when she saw Li Mingxia had already gone to pack up the things on the stall.

"Could this man be Li Mingxia's lover?" Looking at Li Zhengpin who was busy following Li Mingxia around, the original wife muttered in a very low voice.

No one at the dock knew Li Zhengpin, and no one had ever seen him. Li Mingxia was not young anymore, and the two of them behaved quite intimately, so it was not just Mrs. Yuan who had such a guess.

Li Mingxia didn't know that he and Li Zhengpin had been secretly gossiped about, and was busy greeting guests at the moment.

Perhaps because Li Mingxia did not come yesterday, there were a lot of people at the stall today. There were also repeat customers who had come several times and asked Li Mingxia why Zhang did not come today.

Li Mingxia responded with a smile, and there was laughter at the stall. Li Zhengpin worked quietly, occasionally glancing at Li Mingxia who was busy at the stove.

It's a good thing that my sister is capable. I also have to work hard. I can't rely on my sister for everything for the whole family. I don't have any great abilities, but I'll just do whatever I can to help my sister!

Li Mingxia thought about what Yuan Po Niang said in the morning and estimated that He Changan and the others would come over at noon today.

Sure enough, after another group of customers left, He Changan, Xiaowen and Xiaowu Pingzi came to the stall.

At that time, Li Mingxia was looking down and estimating the remaining ingredients and did not notice them coming. Li Zhengpin thought that the four of them were ordinary diners, so he stepped forward to greet them.

"What would you like to eat?" Li Zhengpin wanted to lead them to sit down, but he saw that their eyes were all on Li Mingxia.

He was a little unhappy. Why were the people in this town so rude? Why were a few men staring at someone else's sister?

Li Zhengpin moved to block Li Mingxia behind him and asked in a stiff voice, "Do you guys want to eat?"

Could these guys have any bad intentions towards his sister? Li Zhengpin looked at them with increasing vigilance.

He was alert to the four people opposite him. The four people opposite him were also wondering who this strange man who suddenly appeared was, especially Xiao Wu, who had the same guess as Yuan Po Niang. He felt dissatisfied and sour in his heart. Seeing Li Zhengpin like this, his eyes also became unfriendly.

I can’t say about other places, but this is the dock, their territory, how can they be bullied?

"You kid is just like this-"

"Brother, what's wrong?" Li Mingxia heard the noise over there and took a look, but his sight was blocked by Li Zhengpin, so he didn't see clearly who it was. While speaking, he put down what he was doing and walked out.

"Brother?" Xiao Wu was stunned. He swallowed the rest of the words and almost bit his tongue.

He Changan was also a little surprised. Brother? This person is Li Mingxia's brother? Then why have I never seen this person before?

Li Zhengpin turned around and shook his head, indicating that Li Mingxia was fine.

"You guys? Why don't you sit down? I thought my brother had a quarrel with someone." Li Mingxia smiled when he saw He Changan and the others, and pointed to the table beside him. "Why don't you sit down?"

He Changan and the other three quickly agreed. This time they moved very quickly. They sat down one faster than the other. Without Li Zhengpin doing anything, they started pouring tea and drinking it. However, their eyes kept sweeping from Li Mingxia and Li Zhengpin intentionally or unintentionally.

Li Mingxia said apologetically, "I didn't know you were coming to eat these two days. I calculated that it would be tomorrow, and I didn't prepare anything special. I'm really sorry."

He Changan waved his hand, indicating that it was okay. "Your food is delicious. These people have been thinking about it every day. I am impatient to listen. Anyway, it's only a few days away, so I came directly to your place. We will eat whatever you have. We are not picky."

Xiao Wen smiled and said, "Yes, Miss Li, you are such a good cook. Everything you cook tastes good. We will eat whatever you give us. You have the final say!"

Li Zhengpin couldn't help but speculate in his heart when looking at the attitudes of these people. They must be interested in his girl!

"Okay, I'll watch then."

Li Mingxia was about to leave when he was stopped again. Xiao Wu was too straightforward and couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart. There was nothing he could do. If he couldn't figure out what was going on, he wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.

"Who is this brother? Why haven't I seen him before? I just heard you call him Big Brother?"

Could it be my cousin?

Li Mingxia didn't know why these people were interested in his family affairs, but when he saw He Changan looking at him, he nodded and said, "This is my eldest brother. He didn't come to eat for a while because he was away from home. Now he's back and is helping me at the stall. You guys drink some tea first, I'll be ready soon."

Li Mingxia didn't take this matter seriously at all. After he finished speaking, he went to work on the stove.

He is actually his biological brother? Xiao Wu's attitude towards Li Zhengpin is completely different now.

A cousin may become Li Mingxia's lover, but a biological brother is his future brother-in-law! How can it be the same?

"Would you like a cup of tea, Brother Li?" Xiao Wu was a rough man, and he thought for a long time before uttering these words. Li Zhengpin frowned, glanced at the attentive Xiao Wu, shook his head, and went to help Li Mingxia.

Xiao Wu grinned, and his mood became even worse when he saw his brothers looking at him with gloating expressions.

"What are you laughing at!" Xiao Wu angrily poured himself another cup of tea, thinking about what he should do to ease the relationship with his future brother-in-law.

Li Mingxia prepared a bowl of meat soup rice for each of them, and then served a large portion of braised meat and a platter of braised pork offal, cut the salted duck eggs in half, and some small pickles, and added a separate portion of braised pork and four bowls of bone soup, and then asked Li Zhengpin to serve them.
