Lu Ye's attitude made Su Mengyao a little unhappy.

It’s not because she asked her father for this job, but because Lu Ye gave up his good job in the establishment and insisted on engaging in speculation and profiteering.

This lack of ambition made her angry.

"Okay, then you think about it."

There was obvious emotion in Su Mengyao's voice.

"Brother Lu, it's such a good job, what else do you have to consider? Besides, after you go to the provincial capital, you can reunite with your sister-in-law, which is a great thing."

Li Mingzhu didn't know that Lu Ye and Su Mengyao's marriage was fake and that they had already divorced. She just felt that Lu Ye seemed to be deliberately making things difficult for Su Mengyao.

"Let's not talk about this for now."

"I'm going to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some vegetables. We'll have a good meal tonight." Lu Ye laughed and turned to leave.

Buying groceries was fake, avoiding Su Mengyao was real.

"Don't go. I don't want to eat anything else. I just want to eat sesame cakes." Seeing that Lu Ye was about to run, Su Mengyao stopped Lu Ye.

"You really know how to eat. You didn't eat sesame paste when I made dozens of kilograms a day, but now that I don't make it anymore, you want to eat it again."

Lu Ye curled his lips, feeling that Su Mengyao was looking for trouble.

"I used to not miss it when I could see it every day, but now that I can't see it anymore, I kind of miss it. Why not?"

Su Mengyao also spoke with a pout, showing an attitude of not giving in.

Su Yunjie was stunned.

He really couldn't understand what condition his sister was in now.

When at home, Su Mengyao is taciturn and stays alone most of the time. Even when eating with her family, she speaks very little.

How come he changed so completely the moment he came back here and saw his ex-brother-in-law?

Li Mingzhu was also a little confused about what was going on with these two people.

People always say that a short separation between husband and wife makes them feel like a new marriage, but when it comes to these two people, they are like fighting cocks as soon as they meet, as if they are about to fight at any time.

When they were together before, they were never so twisted.

"I happen to have some sesame seeds at home. I'll go make some now so I can have sesame paste pancakes at noon. It's easy."

As Li Mingzhu spoke, she hurriedly opened the cabinet and took out the stored sesame seeds.

Take it to the kitchen and soak the sesame seeds in water in an enamel basin.

Lu Ye pulled a stool and sat by the window, looking sideways at the vegetable garden outside.

"Well, if I'm done eating and don't want to eat anymore, then I'll just clean up the table?"

The atmosphere in the room was a bit cold. Su Yunjie said something in a low voice and quietly put away the dishes and plates on the table.

Su Mengyao was half-sitting on the edge of the kang. Her carefully applied makeup couldn't hide her gradually pouting lips.

Lu Ye even turned his face to the window.

This made Su Mengyao even more angry.

"Don't you want me to come back?"

"How is that possible? I just didn't expect you to come back so early."

Su Mengyao had to fill out her application form and undergo a physical examination to go to college, so she had to come back. Lu Ye just didn't expect Su Mengyao to come back so early.

Moreover, as soon as he comes back, he will be taken to the provincial capital to be a civil servant.

Who would work in property management if they were a serious person?

"I'm going out to buy a roast chicken." Lu Ye said this and ran out.

He didn't want to stay in this room any longer.

"Buy two bottles of soda for Mingzhu and me."

Seeing that Lu Ye was about to run away as if he had grown weeds in his heart, Su Mengyao simply shouted at Lu Ye.

Being sulking in this hot weather made her feel even hotter, so she asked Lu Ye to buy a few bottles of soda to cool down.

"I heard it." Lu Ye, who had already arrived in the kitchen, responded after hearing this.

It was Su Yunjie's first time in Hua County. Seeing Lu Ye was going to the supply and marketing cooperative, he hurriedly said, "Brother-in-law, I'll go with you. It's a good opportunity for you to show me around."

"Okay, let's go." Lu Ye said with a smile.

Su Yunjie put down his bowl and chopsticks, hurriedly followed Lu Ye, and the two walked out of the yard together.

Su Mengyao came to the kitchen and reached out to continue washing the dishes that Su Yunjie had not finished washing.

"Sister-in-law, just leave it there. I'll wash it later." Li Mingzhu said hurriedly while washing sesame seeds.

"It's okay, I'll just come."

While washing the dishes, Su Mengyao asked softly, "Mingzhu, why don't you continue making sesame oil? Are you in trouble?"

Su Mengyao knew Lu Ye. That guy was very cautious. If she could make him give up immediately, the matter must be serious.

When asked, Li Mingzhu was a little hesitant.

She didn't know whether she should tell Su Mengyao about these things.

“Actually…actually…”

Seeing Li Mingzhu hesitating, Su Mengyao said softly: "Mingzhu, I know him. He won't be like this unless it's a big deal. Don't make me anxious."

"Actually, something happened."

"Just two days after you left, the people from the county's 'Vote-Rejection Office' started..."

Li Mingzhu slowly told Su Mengyao what she knew.

The more Su Mengyao listened, the angrier she became.

Unexpectedly, even Li Mingzhu was almost caught.

She didn't quite approve of Lu Ye's continued speculation and profiteering, after all, it was not a serious business.

But this does not mean that others can bully them like this.

Lu Ye led Su Yunjie out of the shantytown and came to the central area of ​​Hua County.

Compared with the provincial capital with a profound historical heritage, the city of Huaxian can be said to be small and shabby.

There are only a few shops on the street, and you can see the end at a glance.

Although there are people coming and going, it can't be compared with the prosperous provincial capital.

"This place is not comparable to the provincial capital. It's a small place. Actually, there's nothing much better here."

Although Lu Ye said so, Su Yunjie didn't think so.

“For me, a place with many people is a good place.”

Su Yunjie laughed and said, "The place where I joined the team before was a large grassland. They asked me to guard the grassland. It was an endless grassland, and I was alone. I was really feeling suffocated, so I talked to Dahei."

"Dahei was a dog, but unfortunately he was old. Last winter, wolves attacked the pasture and killed him. I shot them and chased them away. I finally managed to retrieve his body."

"I buried it in front of the tent where I slept, and every day when I go out, I can see it."

"Dahei is my only friend on the grassland."

Su Yunjie spoke calmly, without revealing too much sadness.

Lu Ye knew some traditional Mongolians and had some understanding of their culture.

So he whispered, "People on the grassland believe that death is a return to nature, and Dahei is just starting his own reincarnation."

"Yes, Uncle Hari said the same thing. I didn't expect that you know quite a bit about Mongolian culture." Su Yunjie said with a smile.

After a brief chat, Su Yunjie's impression of Lu Ye became better and better.

He could not see any trace of the rustic air of a farmer in Lu Ye. Instead, he felt that Lu Ye was somewhat similar to Uncle Harina, whom he met on the grassland.

They all give people a sense of calmness and wisdom.
