Siheyuan: How many worlds does the system integrate?

Chapter 227 Mind Your Business

Looking at Yu Haitang acting like a little woman, Li Xuewu couldn't help laughing.

"Okay, then let's do as you say and postpone it for two months! By the way, why are you here?"

This place was originally an office for a real estate company. Xu Damao, Liu Guangtian and Han Chunming should be working here. How come Yu Haitang is getting involved here now?

"They can't occupy such a large place. Wen Liang and I discussed it and decided to share it for a while and then separate it when the business grows bigger in the future. This way we can save some money!" Yu Haitang explained.

"You guys are very thoughtful, okay? Where are they?"

"Everyone is busy, and I'm getting ready to go out too!"

"Where are you going?"

Yu Haitang seemed to be hesitant to speak, but she still said, "My sister opened a restaurant and it's opening today. I was just about to go over and support her!"

After saying this, she stared at Li Xuewu's expression, fearing that he would be unhappy. After all, Yu Li later made up her mind to return to her family and live with Yan Jiecheng. This made Li Xuewu very angry with Yu Li, and he has not spoken a word to Yu Li until now.

But as sisters, Yu Haitang still had to go and join in when Yu Li opened a store. Unexpectedly, she ran into Li Xuewu who just came back.

"Okay, then you go. I don't have anything to do. I just came to take a look." Li Xuewu said this lightly after hearing this.

Several years have passed and Li Xuewu has let it go. After all, she is not his wife. Yu Li has her own choice and there is nothing he can do even if he is angry.

"Okay, I'll be gone for a while. Don't be angry. I will go home immediately after the opening ceremony. What do you want to eat in the evening? I'll make it for you," Yu Haitang said coquettishly while shaking Li Xuewu's arm.

"Whatever, anything is fine. I'm back but I haven't gone home yet. I'll go see my parents first, and then come back to our courtyard!"

Seeing that Li Xuewu didn't seem to be saying anything in anger, Yu Haitang felt relieved, and the two of them came down from upstairs arm in arm.

They parted at the door and Li Xuewu went straight back to Nanluoguxiang.

There was nothing wrong at home. The old man and his wife were living a very fulfilling life. There were so many children in the family. The eldest, Li Xuewen, had three children. Wujin was already 15 years old and was about to go to high school. The second and third children were 11 and 8 years old respectively. In addition, Huaihua, the child of Li Xuewu, was 18 years old and just in time to take the college entrance examination, becoming one of the first batch of college students after the resumption of the college entrance examination.

Li Hongbing is also 13 years old and is in junior high school. He has two younger children, one is 10 and the other is 7 years old.

There are 7 children in total. The old couple gets busy cleaning and cooking every morning. After they finish eating and go to school, Mother Li starts to pack up their dirty clothes. It is almost noon before she finishes.

After a busy day, you can only truly rest at night.

When Li Xuewu entered the room, the old lady was washing clothes in the sink.

She would stretch her shoulders from time to time. Seeing this, Li Xuewu walked up to her and gently massaged her shoulders: "Mom, you've worked hard!"

The old lady turned around and said: "You scared me, when did you come back?"

"You just got back! I'll buy you a washing machine. It's so tiring to wash clothes every day!" Li Xuewu also felt sorry for his mother. Summer clothes were better because they were thinner and not difficult to wash. But in winter, all clothes were thick. Not only was it tiring, but the water was so cold that it made people's bones ache.

"That thing can wash clothes clean! I feel more at ease if I rub them with my hands!" The older generation is not so accepting of mechanical things. They always think that it is impossible for a washing machine to wash clothes clean after just a few turns.

"That saves effort!"

The old lady wrung out the last piece of clothing and asked Li Xuewu to carry the basin to the clothesline in the middle of the yard. "I have nothing to do at home. You guys are all busy. I can use these kids to relieve my boredom. By the way, how are your affairs in the south going?"

"It's pretty good. We can apply for the project to set up a factory right away. Mom, let me tell you, I found Lou Xiao'e. She gave birth to a grandson for you in Hong Kong. His name is Li Nian!" Li Xuewu said as he approached his mother.

Li's mother has long been accustomed to it. If Li Xuewu doesn't cause trouble for her, he wouldn't be himself.

"You have never been a good kid since you were young. Why are you making so much trouble? Is there a throne to inherit in your family? Really!"

Li Xuewu grinned: "Although I don't have the throne, I have a lot of property!"

"You're so funny. By the way, is Guoying pregnant too? Who's taking care of her during her confinement?"

"It's still early. She's only four or five months old now. She has her parents and Jingru and the others there. Don't worry!"

The old lady shook her head helplessly: "I really don't understand you. As soon as Guoying got pregnant, you got a divorce certificate and got the baby with Haitang. Who are you going to get the baby with next?"

Fortunately, this son is the only one who is troublesome. The eldest son is an honest person. If both sons were like this, I would be worried to death.

Li Xuewu picked up a piece of clothing from the basin, shook it out, and handed it over: "I plan to go through them one by one. Anyway, there is no rule that prohibits multiple marriages and divorces. I will make up for what I owe before."

"I don't even bother to say anything to you, just do whatever you want."

"Okay, thanks mom! Where's my dad?"

"He went out fishing early in the morning. It's become a hobby of his even at his old age. He goes to Houhai every day, but he doesn't bring back many fish!" complained the old lady.

"This is great! It can cultivate your sentiments and exercise your body. It's better than staying at home!"

The son came back and his mother made dumplings for him at noon. After the meal, he chatted with the old couple for a while. Then Li Xuewu left home and returned to Yu Haitang's courtyard.

At this time, Yu Haitang had already returned and was cleaning up the house.

When he saw Li Xuewu coming in, he quickly put down the work in his hands, walked up to him and took the things in his hand.

"Why did you come back just now? Are your parents okay at home?"

"Well, it's good. How's Yu Li doing?"

"It's pretty good. They invited He Yuzhu to be the chef, and there were quite a lot of people on the first day!"

Li Xuewu nodded and responded casually: "Yeah, got it!"

There was no way to continue this topic, so Yu Haitang quickly changed the subject: "What do you think our trading company is going to do? I still have no idea!"

"Don't worry about it. Just set up the platform first. Once the road in Hong Kong is straightened out, business will naturally come to you. This trip to Hong Kong has yielded a lot. I originally thought I would have to hold on for a few more years, but now it seems that we can do many things at the same time!"

"Really? That's great! Tell me what's in Hong Kong!" Yu Haitang was also full of curiosity about the outside world.

He put his arm around Yu Haitang's shoulders, and the two of them sat on the sofa: "Okay, then I'll talk to you about it, and when there's a chance in the future, I'll take you guys for a walk together!"
