Mr. Li asked sadly, "What else do you want?"

Li Yu'e cried, "If you don't help me, I will deal with them myself."

"Don't do anything stupid. Jing Qishan is not a simple person. Not to mention Jing Qishan, even the current Li Yujiao is not the same Li Yujiao as before. E'er, you are young and naive. You can't beat them!"

Li Yu'e yelled at Li Yuanwai: "You all don't believe me, I won't talk to you anymore!"

After saying that, he went back to his room and closed the door.

Mr. Li wanted to chase after her and coax her, but he felt that spoiling her like this was not a good idea.

Because the family had lost a lot of money recently, neither his daughter-in-law nor the servants were in a good mood towards him, and they were all furious when working. Yesterday, a coat he was planning to wear during the New Year was torn by a servant while washing. When asked about it, the servant said that it was too cold at the time and his hands were frozen, so he didn't notice it.

Doesn’t this mean that there is not enough firewood and charcoal in the house?

Mr. Li wanted to get angry, but he couldn't.

Forget it, let Li Yu'e calm down. If she continues to be spoiled like this, I'm afraid the house will be lost.

……

Jiaojiao Food Shop.

Because Li Yujiao and Jing Qishan had been to the yamen once, when they came back this time, Wang went to boil some mugwort and peach wood water to give them a bath.

It is said to be a bath, a change of clothes, and a way to get rid of bad luck.

By the time I finished the whole process, it was already late at night.

But everyone was very excited because Li Yujiao asked everyone to wait inside the shop, saying that she was going to give out year-end bonuses, something like a year-end bonus.

The guys were all very excited and kept praising Li Yujiao.

Wang said while eating melon seeds: "I have lived for so long, and this is the first time I have heard of such a thing as a year-end bonus. My husband has been a bricklayer at the dock for so long, and he has no money except the regular salary.

Now my salary is higher than his. My mother-in-law and husband used to dislike me every day, but now, I pay my son's tuition. Every time I go back, they have to serve me. And those people from my mother's family want to curry favor with me every day. But I have seen clearly that these people are not reliable. Only by relying on yourself can you succeed!"

Wang Erhua said, "That's right. I used to think that after a woman got married, she could only do farm work and take care of the children at home. But since I got my monthly salary, I don't want to have children anymore. I can't work during the confinement period. If I don't work, I will lose a month's salary. I want to work in this shop until I grow old."

Jing Qizhi said, "And me, I used to be laughed at every day in the village, saying that I was obsessed with martial arts and accomplished nothing, but now I have a salary, and I can occasionally learn a few martial arts moves from my cousin and his wife. Now many matchmakers in the village want to introduce me to a wife."

Not to mention Chun Ge.

Not only does he not have to worry about money, he can also go to school. He feels that among these people, he is the luckiest one, so he doesn't need any year-end bonus.

As we were chatting about this, Li Yujiao and Jing Qishan came over.

Li Yujiao was still holding the purse.

Everyone immediately sat up straight and looked at the purse in Li Yujiao's hand excitedly.

Li Yujiao did not put on airs as a leader. In her previous life, she hated the kind of leaders who would hold a special ideological conference just to give out year-end bonuses, as if it was a great favor.

So she came in and handed out money, one portion to each person.

Everyone got the money and counted it quickly.

Wow, this is equivalent to a month’s salary!

Wang asked excitedly, "Why are there so many?"

Li Yujiao smiled and said, "The year-end bonus is calculated based on the turnover of our shop. If we make more money this year, we will get more year-end bonus at the end of the year. If everyone keeps working hard next year and the business of the noodle shop is better than this year, we will get more year-end bonus."

After hearing this, all the guys excitedly promised to work hard next year!

After distributing the year-end bonuses, Li Yujiao announced the holiday notice.

The day after tomorrow is New Year's Eve. We will definitely have a holiday on New Year's Eve, but we can go back to work on the tenth day.

……

After everyone dispersed, Li Yujiao and Jing Qishan also returned to the attic.

Li Yujiao was about to enter the house when Jing Qishan stopped her at the door.

"Jiaojiao!"

Sometimes he called her "wife", sometimes he called her "Jiaojiao", and when he was unhappy, he would just call her "Li Yujiao".

Li Yujiao turned around and looked at him.

She was holding a red lantern in her hand, and her face looked like it was filtered through a layer of glass, making her look very beautiful.

Jing Qishan asked: "Can we talk about it?"

Li Yujiao actually had something to ask him, but she had been holding it in for a long time. The carriage was too bumpy on the road, and she had to take a shower after returning, so she didn't have time to ask.

Now it's late at night and it's a good time to chat.

She nodded and said, "Sure, come in."

Ever since she found out that his function in that area had not recovered, she was no longer on guard against him.

Even if he wanted to stay in her room and sleep in the same bed with her, it would be fine.

Jing Qishan entered her room and sat beside her bed.

After she lit the candles in the room, she came over and sat with him.

Li Yujiao asked: "What do you want to talk to me about?"

He looked at her with a burning gaze and said, "Let's talk about what happened in the government office today."

"Isn't it solved?" she asked.

He suddenly held her hand and said, "But I'm worried that there will be more such things in the future. Either you will be sent to the government office or you will be targeted by others. In short, I think it's dangerous for you to follow me."

He was an unlucky person in his previous life. All his good friends left him, and he spent his whole life being schemed against and plotting against others.

Li Yujiao only felt that her hand was held very tightly by him.

He looked like he really cared about her.

She couldn't help but ask: "So what you mean is... you don't want me to follow you?"

"That's not what I meant!" Jing Qishan said, "I hope you can always follow me, but I don't want you to get hurt."

Li Yujiao couldn't help but ask the question in her mind: "Do you want to go back to the barracks?"

"To be honest, I don't want to." Jing Qishan only wants to stay quietly in this small place and live with Li Yujiao until old age.

However, fate did not seem to allow him to rest in peace.

For example, today, in order to prevent Li Yujiao from suffering the caning, he agreed to the county magistrate's request to deal with the Tiger Head Gang.

As a result, his life would fall into dire straits again, and he was afraid of implicating Li Yujiao.

Li Yujiao sensed his concerns, and she couldn't help but smile: "Returning to the military camp is a good thing. Men should always go out and explore the world. You don't have to worry about me. I can take care of myself."

Jing Qishan asked: "Do you really want me to leave?"

"I……"

Before Li Yujiao could say anything, she was suddenly dragged over by Jing Qishan, and her mouth was blocked by his lips.

She froze.

His kiss came like a tidal wave, making her lips turn white and making it difficult for her to breathe.
