Good luck every time
Chapter 342 The last chance
Li Ruyi escorted the two of them out.
He watched them get on the carriage and not leave. He kept watching the carriage go away before going back.
Li Shiliu is cursing in the store!
He was really uncomfortable with the breath he was holding in. When he saw Li Ruyi coming back, he calmed down a little and hurried to follow.
"Ruyi, I've long felt that they came to my house with bad intentions! You didn't even see the scene..."
After hearing this, Li Ruyi interrupted.
"How much did they pay?"
Fang Rui and Qin Huanzhang were female guests and would never reveal their identities when they went out.
People like them, whose reputation is greater than anything else, fear most is being entangled with others and causing bad things to happen.
If you don’t know how to give your name and want to get rid of the customers in the store, the simplest and most brutal way is to give them money.
Li Shiliu's anger suddenly paused, and then he spoke.
"I gave you two hundred taels!"
Li Ruyi's eyes widened instantly.
"What did you say?"
Li Shiliu felt a little guilty.
"Two hundred taels... am I asking for too much?"
Li Ruyi was furious!
"Two hundred taels? What do you think? You have to ask her for two thousand taels!"
This time, the one with wide eyes was Li Shiliu.
"Two thousand taels? Can they give it?"
Li Ruyi clenched his fists.
"Do you think they really came here to scold me? People of their status would not do useless things. What's the point of coming here to scold me?"
Li Shiliu was no fool and he immediately understood the meaning of Li Ruyi's words.
"You mean... there's a conflict between the two of them?"
Li Ruyi rolled her eyes.
"Those two were being sarcastic to each other, how could you not hear it!?"
Li Shiliu was stunned for a moment.
"Is there something weird?"
Li Ruyi shook her head.
"Our next shop has just flown away! Oh... let's save up slowly. At this rate, it will take another year and a half!"
Li Shiliu: ...
He covered his heart, this time it really hurt!
He quickly caught up with Li Ruyi.
"What should I do? Can I get it back?"
Li Ruyi shook her head.
"What the hell do you want!?"
Li Shiliu asked her again.
"So you sent them just now just for the sake of money?"
Li Ruyi waved his hand.
"I don't want to see you angry!"
Li Shiliu scratched his head. He hadn't done this for many years.
Li Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief when he couldn't see her.
She frowned slightly, remembering the name.
Qin Huanzhang...
In the carriage, the drama between Qin Huanzhang and Fang Rui was not over yet.
Fang Rui said angrily.
"Sister Qin, you are too kind-hearted. You are still thinking of promoting her and making her a concubine. I think if such a troublemaker is placed in the backyard, there will definitely be unrest in the backyard!"
"I heard that her parents didn't like her when she was born. How good can such a life be!? I heard that she changed the name Ruyi herself! Ha... How shameless! With such an identity, she still wants everything to go her way..."
Qin Huanzhang's eyes were slightly cold.
Fang Rui's words were like pointing at her nose and scolding her.
At first glance, Qin Huanzhang seems to be referring to a dazzling jade, but does this zhang really represent her?
No one knows better than her.
The word "璋" here represents the joy of having a son.
This 'Huan' wished that she would exchange her life for his!
Huanzhang Huanzhang is just Zhaodi and Pan'er with some literary talent. Sometimes, he is even not as good as them.
At least Li Ruyi can change his name, and Qin Huanzhang will have to be called this name for the rest of his life.
As the eldest daughter of the Qin family, she must shoulder the responsibilities of the Qin family's eldest daughter.
She cannot choose her own lover, cannot choose her own life, cannot choose her own preferences, and sometimes, she cannot even choose her favorite clothes.
Just like Fang Rui.
The two grew up together, seemed to get along harmoniously, and seemed to have a very good relationship.
But look at what Fang Rui is doing now?
Knowing that she and Zhao Qi were about to get married, he still tried to find ways to sow discord between them!
It was Fang Rui herself who initiated the idea of Zhao Qian marrying Li Ruyi, and now it has become her idea.
How could Qin Huanzhang not be angry?
But she couldn't argue back, because she didn't even have the choice to be angry.
She and Fang Rui are often together, not because they have a good relationship, but because they have similar status and position, so it should be so.
If she didn't have such a friend, she would seem unsociable and lonely. How could such a person become the eldest grandson's wife of the Zhao family? Take care of the affairs of the Zhao family?
She seemed to be locked in a shell. On the outside, she was the eldest daughter of the Qin family, but on the inside, she was a lonely soul that no one cared about and was not expected of.
She really envied Li Ruyi.
At least in her opinion, Li Shiliu's anger was real!
And there was no one around her who could really be angry for her.
Her parents, her siblings, her friends, her future husband, who really cares about her!
However, Qin Huanzhang was not the kind of person who would feel sad about the passing of autumn and the coming of spring.
On the contrary, the fact that she can play this role so well has already proved her ability.
Knowing that no one in this world would care about her, how could she give up on herself! ?
"She's just a woman. It's not a big deal. If there's no Li Ruyi, there might be another Ruyi."
"You don't have to worry about me. We are going to be the mistresses of the house in the future. How can we compete with these women for attention?"
After saying this, Qin Huanzhang seemed to be understanding and gave Fang Rui some advice.
"You need to change your temper. I know you said that for my own good."
"But if outsiders knew about this, who knows what they would say about you!"
Fang Rui snorted coldly.
"Humph! Li Ruyi dared to let outsiders know about this? I think she is not going to make it up!"
"Even if you are Mr. Zhao's savior, so what? You want to stay here after offending the Fang and Qin families?"
Qin Huanzhang's brows twitched.
"The Qin and Fang families are not omnipotent. Besides, Li Ruyi has the Zhao family behind him, so we can't go too far."
"If you ask me, such a person is really not worth our bother."
Fang Rui moved her eyes and glanced at Qin Huanzhang.
"Sister Qin, don't take this person lightly. This kind of woman is very thoughtful. A kind and gentle person like you is no match for a vicious woman like her!"
"I think we can't just let this matter go. Look at me, I promise I won't let her off easily!"
Qin Huanzhang shook his head.
"Sister Fang, why are you doing this? We don't need to compete with her for this long. Even if she really wants to join the Zhao family, she has to look to me and see if our Qin family is willing."
"Using tricks for no reason is the behavior of a mean person. Besides, if you leave any evidence behind, you will be laughed at."
Fang Rui looked at Qin Huanzhang and then sighed.
"Sister Qin, you are right. I was too impulsive!"
Qin Huanzhang sneered in his heart, but his face still showed a touched look.
"I know, you did it all for me!"
Fang Rui's eyes were red.
"I don't care what others say about me. As long as Sister Qin understands me, that's enough!"
After the two of them performed this show of sisterly love, they immediately parted ways.
As soon as Fang Rui returned home, she immediately gave the order.
"Doesn't Ruyifang have our family's things? Then we can't let it continue to operate!"
After receiving the order, the people below immediately started to move.
On the other hand, as soon as Qin Huanzhang returned, the first thing he did was to write a letter to Li Ruyi and asked someone he trusted to send it out secretly.
Zhao Qi is a man of good age and high status, and he is a rare son-in-law in the city.
I don't know how many people are watching this marriage.
Fang Rui also took a different approach and tried to sow discord between Zhao Qi and Qin Huanzhang.
The Fang family was not completely in the dark about the Zhao family. They had heard that Zhao Qi had once broken off the engagement.
Although the matter was later left unresolved, since Zhao Qi was able to make such a fuss, he must have had his own considerations.
I just don't know if Li Ruyi has the charm that can make Zhao Qi prefer to change a bride and keep her in the Zhao family.
This is how poaching works. As long as there is a tiny gap, it’s enough to give it a try!
Li Ruyi was not surprised when he received Qin Huanzhang's letter.
In her opinion, this was not a letter, but an invitation to join.
But unfortunately, Li Ruyi was not interested in the power struggle in the capital.
She only has a little bit of Zhao Qi's unrealistic pity, so why should she join the game?
Besides, how could Zhao Qi be so popular that she should be competing with others for him?
However, after reading Qin Huanzhang's letter, Li Ruyi also understood that there would probably be a tough battle to fight next.
She has become a pawn in the game between several core dignitaries in the city, and it is not easy for her to protect herself in the battle.
In the past, she was barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes!
But now there were so many people following her, and her shoes were so thick and warm that she didn't want to take them off at all.
Li Ruyi finished reading Qin Huanzhang's letter and pondered it silently for a while.
It seems that the caravan's affairs have to be put on hold for the time being. Neither Li Shiliu nor Li Er can take on the responsibility in her absence.
However, Li Ruyi can only be in charge of one side now. Between Li Er and Li Shiliu, she is more worried about Li Shiliu.
She told Li Er about the seriousness of the matter, and Li Er's expression was also very serious.
They are not capable enough to take the initiative and can only passively take the beating.
However, no one can tell clearly where the other party will start, or it is possible that they will use two prongs, three prongs, or even target Li Ruyi in all aspects.
The only thing Li Ruyi was not worried about at this time was Sanjia Village.
A charcoal kiln tied all the people in Sanjia Village together, and that was truly a solid foundation.
On the contrary, the shop and Li Er's side are full of dangers.
Li Shiliu and Sun Deshan were both perceptive people, and both of them felt the changes in Li Ruyi.
Sun Deshan didn't know what to do and wanted to help but couldn't.
After much thought, Li Shiliu finally found Li Ruyi.
"Ruyi, why don't you go discuss it with Zhao Qi?"
Li Ruyi was not surprised that Li Shiliu would give such an opinion.
Although she felt a little uneasy, she still had to explain the truth to Li Shiliu.
"Now is not the time."
Li Shiliu was a little anxious.
"If it's not now, when is the right time? Do we have to wait until something happens in the shop before we can solve it?"
Everyone has a stance, and Li Shiliu’s stance is interest.
He was worried that if he lost the shop, everything he had would be gone, so at this point he wanted to persuade Li Ruyi to do something.
However, it is impossible for Li Ruyi to get what he wants.
"Sixteenth brother, when you met me, I was still a poor kid in Sanjia Village who couldn't get enough food to eat. But who am I now?"
"The shop is not the most important thing. The worst that can happen is that we have to start all over again."
When Li Shiliu heard that he had to do it again, his expression became obviously unhappy.
"We don't have a chance to start over now. Once we are involved, it will be a fight to the death!"
The fact that Li Shiliu could say this shows that he also understands the style of the powerful.
Li Ruyi understood that it was useless to persuade Li Shiliu with kind words at this time.
The weaker he is, the more arrogant he becomes.
Li Ruyi's face turned serious and he said immediately.
"Sixteenth brother, you are too impatient! Are you the only one who cares about the shop and I don't care?"
Li Shiliu's chest heaved. How could Li Ruyi not know what he was worried about?
"I can never be with Zhao Qi in my life. If I stay with him for less than three years, I will die!"
"The shop is much more important to me than it is to you. How could I not consider that?"
Li Shiliu was stunned.
In fact, what he was worried about all along was that Li Ruyi would use the favor of saving his life to gain Zhao Qi's favor and go directly to Zhao Qi.
That would be an extremely heavy blow to both the Li family and Sanjia Village.
Li Shiliu's anxiety made him urgently need to do something.
It was not until this moment that I heard Li Ruyi say these words.
"What death? Why did he die?"
Li Ruyi sneered.
"You can't even see through this and yet you want to find Zhao Qi!? Are you naive or stupid?"
Li Shiliu was stunned by the scolding.
But then came words that made him even more stunned.
"If you can't even understand this situation, then hurry back to Sanjia Village! Otherwise you'll do something stupid and cause trouble for everyone."
"Don't think I don't know. Someone has been contacting you recently. Do you really think that your connections count as connections?"
"What is my relationship with you? Look at what you have done! You and I are like this, so why should a worthless Li Shiliu be treated differently?"
Li Shiliu's eyes flickered for a moment.
Li Ruyi's heart skipped a beat. She had been keeping a close eye on Li Shiliu for a while, but she didn't expect that he would still get in touch with someone.
Li Shiliu is young and energetic, but his foundation is too weak.
He lowered his head and suddenly didn't know what to say!
Li Ruyuan was somewhat disappointed when he saw this.
Li Shiliu was someone she had always been optimistic about, but since when did this person go further and further astray?
Li Ruyi said.
"Brother Sixteen, you only have one chance with me!"
Li Shiliu was so frightened that he raised his head instantly.
"Ruyi...what do you mean?"
Li Ruyi smiled helplessly.
"Don't you understand what I mean?"
"Do you really think I don't know what you did behind my back?"
Li Shiliu looked at Li Ruyi, feeling somewhat guilty.
"I can tolerate your greed, your taking kickbacks, and your philandering, but Sixteenth Brother, if you don't understand that we are a team, then we should break up as soon as possible. My small temple cannot accommodate a big Buddha like you, so you can find another way out!"
