After the marriage, the charming educated youth is eye-catching

Song Hui originally thought that he would be rejected outright, but unexpectedly there was room for maneuver, so he immediately followed.

But Mr. Li didn't want to take him into the military compound, but took him back to his own home.

Song Hui stood awkwardly in the yard, not knowing what Mr. Li was trying to do.

He had wanted to visit several times before, but was rejected. The old man was in the house at the time and didn't even come out of the yard. When he knew it was him, he impatiently drove him away.

He was a little flattered that she brought him home again today.

"Mr. Li, do you have something to tell me?" Song Hui immediately said, "Just tell me what you need. As long as I can help, I will definitely do my best to help!"

Mr. Li glanced at him coldly and said, "I do have a favor I need your help with."

"Please tell me!"

"Xiao Qiu will not go back to Su City with you, and she will not recognize you as her relatives." Old Master Li said firmly, "So I ask you, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, stop disturbing her life."

After a pause, he emphasized his tone, giving a very oppressive warning: "If you insist on having your own way, I don't mind making a big deal out of this."

Both the Shen and Song families are families that attach great importance to reputation.

Once this matter gets out of hand, and Lin Ziqiu's attitude is clear, and he is unwilling to "return to his roots", then the only ones who will be embarrassed are the Shen and Song families.

Song Hui didn't expect the old man to be so tough. He hurriedly tried to make amends, hoping to find room for maneuver. "Mr. Li, I can assure you that I will never force Xiaoqiu on this matter."

"I will respect her no matter what she chooses, but this happened very suddenly, and Xiaoqiu needs time to accept it. Plus, my aunt and my family are having a disagreement, and there are too many misunderstandings that we haven't had time to resolve. I just hope to see Xiaoqiu again."

"Let's sit down and have a good chat calmly. I know you've been very kind to Sister Xiuyan. I've wanted to visit you to thank you, but you've always been prejudiced against me. As Xiaoqiu's family, no matter where she is or what she chooses, I hope she can be truly happy. Whether it's the Shen family, the Song family, or you, we are her strongest support."

Mr. Li disagreed, "If the Shen and Song families were as good as you say, Wushuang wouldn't have suffered so much for so many years."

"I don't care if you guys want to bully others, but if anyone dares to bully my granddaughter, ask me first if I agree!"

Song Hui felt ashamed after hearing what he said. His aunt had suffered so much injustice. To be honest, he couldn't guarantee that if Lin Ziqiu was really willing to recognize her relatives and return to Su City, she would become another "aunt".

He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, wanting to have another proper discussion with the old man. "Mr. Li, I understand your concerns, but as an elder, I hope you can really think about Xiao Qiu as well."

"What is Zhong Heyang's status? He will definitely not stay in this position in the future. And if our Xiaoqiu doesn't have a powerful family to support her, can you guarantee that Zhong Heyang will love her forever?"

"After all, her husband is an outsider. Blood is thicker than water. Don't any of us relatives want her best?"

"My aunt has always felt guilty about Sister Xiuyan's situation and has been looking for her all these years. When she learned that Sister Xiuyan had passed away... we were all very sad, especially my aunt. So when she found out that Xiaoqiu was Sister Xiuyan's only child left in this world, she wanted to make it up to Xiaoqiu."

"And Xiaoqiu has suffered so much in the past. We all feel sorry for her..."

He said a lot, but Mr. Li was too lazy to argue with him any further, "Enough!"

"I've made it very clear. I won't let you see Xiao Qiu. If you want to use any tricks, just come at me! If you dare to hurt Xiao Qiu, I will fight you to the death!"

Mr. Li banged his cane hard on the ground.

In this world, his wife died early, and the daughter he raised with great difficulty also died young. Xiaoqiu was the only granddaughter left, and he would protect her no matter what.

This time, even if she drove him away like she did when they were children, he would not abandon her again.

When Song Hui wanted to say something, Mr. Li ordered him to leave. "I have nothing to say to you. Go away!"

"Mr. Li, please reconsider this! You..."

"Go! Hurry up!"

Mr. Li was just about to use a broom to chase them away.

Song Hui was forced to retreat outside the gate, and with a bang, the door was closed.

He frowned and breathed a sigh of relief.

Mr. Li's action extinguished the little hope he had just ignited.

He leaned against the wall in a daze, looking up into the distance. He understood what Mr. Li said.

But there are many things that even he cannot control.

If possible, he just hoped that Lin Ziqiu could recognize them. As for what kind of life she wanted to live in the future, she could decide for herself.

The biggest problem is that he can accomplish it, but my aunt and others cannot.

If you are used to controlling others, how can you be willing to let others be free?

The jeep stopped outside the alley. Ruan Qing jumped out of the car, took down all the luggage, and waved to Shen Xiu and the others obediently, "Uncle Meng, you have worked hard. You should have a good rest when you go back!"

Shen Xiu smiled gently, "Come in quickly."

Ruan Qing held a slice of ginger in his mouth on the way, which helped a little with motion sickness. Now that he got out of the car and breathed in the fresh air, he felt refreshed.

"Okay! See you later."

After saying that, she winked at Huang Bin again, then turned and walked into the alley.

Huang Bin's eyes followed her all the time. Seeing that she was so small but carrying two large bags, his eyes couldn't help but dim.

He really wanted to help her.

He couldn't even do such a small thing for her.

This feeling of frustration lingered in his heart, making even his breathing become heavy.

Meng Zhiwei caught Huang Bin's emotional changes from the rearview mirror and immediately started the car.

"Xiaobin, I'll bring your grandpa over tonight and we can have dinner together."

Huang Bin came back to his senses and nodded lightly.

Seeing his lost look, Shen Xiu couldn't help but persuade him: "Xiao Bin, Qingqing is a good girl. If you like her, express it openly and don't suppress your feelings."

Huang Bin was stunned. He didn't expect that they could see through his thoughts.

He smiled self-deprecatingly, "I'm not the same person anymore. I can't even stand in front of her, so what qualifications do I have to like her?"

Shen Xiu frowned and said earnestly, "I know what you're worried about, but Qingqing isn't that kind of person. If she truly had no feelings for you, would she willingly work so hard to heal your leg?"

"That was the first day you came back. When she heard you were in trouble, she ran out of the car and followed us to your house. If it was someone else, do you think she would still care so much?"

"Think about it, when she broke up with the Ruan family, her mother, Wei Yufei, was sick and hospitalized, but she didn't even go to see her."

"Wei Zhihe even came to her house and asked her to go, but she refused."

"Qingqing is a person who clearly distinguishes between gratitude and resentment. Hate is hate, and care is care."

Every word of Shen Xiu's words echoed in Huang Bin's ears.

How much hatred must one have to refuse to even visit his own mother when she is sick and hospitalized?

What's more, she is a doctor herself.

If Shen Xiu suffered oppression and grievances in the Shen family, then Ruan Qing was not much better off in the Ruan family.

However, Ruan Qingyuan was much braver than Shen Xiu. When the Ruan family wanted to use her as a stepping stone for marriage, she resolutely chose to sever ties with them.

She has a clear distinction between love and hate. If she didn't care, how could she be so concerned about a patient's leg injury?

It is not only medical treatment, but also psychological guidance.

All the signs prove that Huang Bin is "caring" and "special" to Ruan Qing.

Realizing this, Huang Bin felt a sweet and bitter feeling of frustration and powerlessness in his heart.

I love her very much, but I dare not love her.

With the college entrance examination approaching, Lin Ziqiu made an important decision in order to have more time to review.

"What? You want to resign? I don't agree!" Jiang Lin was originally waiting for Lin Ziqiu to come up with a new recipe, but what he got was a blow to the head.

Lin Ziqiu smiled and coaxed, "Uncle! Don't worry, I've already prepared the new recipe I promised you."

As she spoke, she took out a small notebook from her bag, which was filled with densely packed names of various dishes, and not only that, there were also specific cooking methods.

Of course, she also combined the current ingredients and limited seasonings for the dishes. In short, even if she is not the chef here in the future, Tian Gui will be able to make these dishes with his skills.

When Jiang Lin saw the new menu, his expression began to improve.

He flipped through a few pages, still unable to suppress the anger in his heart. "Why are you quitting for no reason? Is your salary too low? I'll give you a raise!"

This is a state-owned store, and the performance of their business has nothing to do with the interests of their employees.

But Jiang Lin can also be considered a very responsible "boss" and is very generous to his employees.

He also admired Lin Ziqiu from the bottom of his heart, even though he knew long ago that with Lin Ziqiu's ability, staying in the state-owned hotel was just a transition period for her.

But when it really came to the point where she resigned and left, he was the first one who felt reluctant.

"It's really not true."

Lin Ziqiu couldn't tell him directly about the resumption of the college entrance examination. "Uncle Jiang, although I won't be helping in the kitchen anymore, if the restaurant encounters any problems in the future, I will definitely come and help as long as you ask."

Jiang Lin hesitated to speak, "What on earth is the reason why you decided so suddenly?"

He had previously expected that Lin Ziqiu would stay here for at least a few years.

At this time, Yao Qian and her aunt walked in and heard their conversation from outside.

The two of them were temporary employees hired because their self-service porridge business was booming and the store couldn't handle the workload.

During this period, Lin Ziqiu and Tian Xiaofeng were not at home, so Yao Qian kept running to Tian Gui, wanting to learn the skills from him.

It’s just that Tian Gui has no plans to accept disciples.

But Yao Qian didn't give up. She fantasized about replacing Lin Ziqiu one day.

"Uncle Jiang, her husband's family is powerful, how could they be interested in our store's mere trifles? Could it be that she is pregnant and wants to stay home to take care of the baby?"

Yao Qian had previously had fantasies about Zhong Heyang, but during the time that Lin Ziqiu was away, she had never seen Zhong Heyang.

Only then did she calm down a little.

Jiang Lin was very dissatisfied with her words, "Have you finished your work outside? Why are you so idle?"

Yao Qian bit her lower lip and blinked innocently, "How dare I be lazy? I've already cleaned up the outside!"

Yao Meihua was more perceptive than her. She knew that Boss Jiang was angry, so she quickly tugged at her niece's clothes and said with a smile, "Miss Xiaoqiu, you're doing a great job. It would be a shame for you to resign. I still want to learn a few more dishes from you!"
