Chapter 502 If I were a fool, I would choose Lou Xiao’e

After Yu Li and Yan Jiecheng walked out of the house, they immediately walked to the west courtyard.

Ye Lidang opened the partition door first and entered the west courtyard. At a glance, she saw many people gathering in the pavilion in the middle of the courtyard to drink tea and chat.

Among them, in addition to Cao Zhiqiang, Cao Jiajia and Uncle Yi, who are known to Yu Li, there is also a beautiful woman whom Yu Li does not know.

"Hey, we're all chatting." Yu Li quickly walked over to say hello with a smile, "I'm living a really good life these little days."

Speaking of this, Yu Li, who had already approached the pavilion, looked at Uncle Yi and said, "Uncle Yi, are you there too?"

Uncle Yi nodded, turned to look at Yu Li and said, "I just came back from the hospital. Come here to thank Jiajia and pay back some money. What are you doing here?"

Yu Li rolled her eyes and immediately said with a smile: "That's right, didn't we come back to visit the second elder today? We happened to hear that Zhiqiang was back. He also gave our parents some gifts, so he came over to say thank you. By the way,

Stop by and say hello to avoid getting into trouble."

"That's right." Yan Jiecheng, who was following, quickly smiled and nodded.

Speaking of this, Yu Li looked at Cao Zhiqiang with a smile: "Zhiqiang, thank you for the gift. Oops, we came back in a hurry this time and didn't bring you a gift. So, next time, next time I promise to give it to you.

Bring something nice as a gift in return."

Cao Zhiqiang, who was sitting on the side and eating melon seeds, put down the melon seeds in his hand. Without getting up, he raised his head and smiled at Li and said, "Thank you, I'm glad."

"No way, they are all neighbors, that's what they should be." Yu Li said with a smile.

Seeing that Yu Li hadn't left yet, Cao Zhiqiang asked again: "Is there anything else?"

Yu Li looked at the people who were all sitting there but didn't get up, blinked slightly embarrassed and said:

"This is also available.

That's right, we want to talk to you about Sha Zhu and Lou Xiao'e."

This time, before Cao Zhiqiang spoke, the first uncle frowned: "No, what's the point of talking about their affairs? Even if there is a problem, it's Qin Huairu's family's business. What does it have to do with Cao Zhiqiang?"

Yu Li quickly said: "Oh, Master Yi, you can't say that.

Things here are complicated.

In other words, the affairs between Sha Zhu, Lou Xiao'e, and Sha Zhu's son He Xiao are not only related to Qin Huairu's family, they are also related to Cao Zhiqiang's major events!"

"Yes, it's a big deal!" Yan Jiecheng nodded and said, "A very big deal!"

"What's the big deal?" Uncle Yi asked with a frown.

"Well..." Yu Li smiled slightly, "I'm afraid it's not convenient to tell you, Mr. Yi."

Uncle Yi frowned again, stood up and said, "Okay, you guys can talk, I'll leave first."

Seeing Uncle Yi turning around to leave, Cao Zhiqiang quickly stood up and said, "No, Uncle Yi, don't leave yet. I just have something else I want to talk to you about, so just sit here and wait."

Uncle Yi looked at Cao Zhiqiang, frowned and said: "You still have trouble with me? You are the big boss and leader now, what trouble can you have with me? Besides, I can't listen to you talking about private matters.

suitable."

Cao Zhiqiang laughed: "Uncle Yi, you are joking. Who doesn't know that you have always had the final say in this yard? What can I hide from you?"

Silly Zhu, no, Uncle He's matter, whether it's related to me or not, there's no harm in listening here.

As for what business I have with you, of course it is a business and a good thing.

So, stay, Mr. Yi."

Uncle Yi looked at Cao Zhiqiang, then at Yu Li: "I'm afraid they won't like me listening here."

Cao Zhiqiang looked at Yu Li: "Aunt Yu, if you insist on letting Uncle Yi leave, then there is no need to say anything."

Yu Li blinked and immediately smiled and said: "No, no, it's just right for Master Yi to be here to listen. It's quite good."

Cao Zhiqiang then smiled slightly and pointed to several stone pillars opposite the stone table: "Come, sit down."

Yu Li laughed, and after aligning with Yan Jie, she sat on the stone pier opposite Cao Zhiqiang, right next to Wu Qinghong.

After sitting down, Yu Li first looked at Wu Qinghong next to her: "Oh, this girl is so beautiful, and she is also very fashionable. She is no worse than Lou Xiao'e. She is also a Hong Kong girl from Xiangjiang, right?"

Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "No, her name is Wu Qinghong, my girlfriend, her parents are from Shanghai, and she is currently studying in university in Beijing."

Well, what Cao Zhiqiang said is actually correct, but he deliberately did not say where Wu Qinghong's hometown is, only where her parents are from.

If you say this, people will subconsciously think that Wu Qinghong is also from Shanghai.

But in fact, this is not the case.

Because although Wu Qinghong's parents are indeed old Shanghainese, she was born in a small county in GZ Province and is not technically a Shanghainese.

In this era, outsiders, especially those from small places in southwest Guizhou, are often easily discriminated against in the capital. Even if you have money, it doesn't matter. This is an overall social atmosphere and cannot be changed whether you like it or not.

, it takes time to slowly change.

Especially Yu Li and Yan Jiecheng, who are such snobs, care more about these things.

So Cao Zhiqiang simply gave a misleading introduction, making them subconsciously think that Wu Qinghong was from Shanghai and was a noble lady in Shanghai.

In this way, their views and attitudes towards Wu Qinghong will be completely different.

It's not that Cao Zhiqiang cares about these things, but he knows that Qinghong cares about these things and doesn't want to cause trouble on such matters.

Yes, people change.

If Wu Qinghong didn't care about her small place of origin before, then after she followed Cao Zhiqiang to the capital and was admitted to a university in the capital with Cao Zhiqiang's help, her view changed.

She began to care about her own identity, fearing that she was not worthy of Cao Zhiqiang.

The main difference is that as Wu Qinghong gets to know Cao Zhiqiang more and more, she starts to have lower self-esteem. People with low self-esteem are often more sensitive and afraid of being laughed at.

Especially after Wu Qinghong's material life was extremely rich, far exceeding that of her peers and people around her, she gradually gained a layer of vanity.

So gradually, Wu Qinghong stopped mentioning where she was from. When people asked, she would just say that she was from Shanghai.

After all, in this era, Shanghai is also a metropolis, and the value of household registration is no different than that of the capital.

Cao Zhiqiang doesn't think this is a problem. After all, this is an inevitable phenomenon and can only be changed slowly in the future as his knowledge increases and his horizons broaden.

"Yes, hello, my name is Wu Qinghong." Wu Qinghong quickly smiled and nodded to Li and Yan Jie Chengdu in a decent manner, "I'm glad to meet you. Please take good care of me in the future."

"Okay, okay." Yu Lim nodded to Wu Qinghong with a smile, "Oh, he is well-educated and sensible, he is really a college student, but he is different."

"That's right." Yan Jiecheng smiled and nodded, "It's different, it's different."

Cao Zhiqiang smiled at the side, and then took the initiative to speak to Li: "Okay, what do you want to do with me? Just tell me what you have to say. There are no outsiders here."

Yu Li blinked, rolled her eyes, and then smiled and said to Cao Zhiqiang: "That's right, Cao Zhiqiang, what about that? Lou Xiao'e brought her son before, and she came back to recognize her relatives with Sha Zhu's son, do you know?"

"Of course I know." Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, "I was there when they recognized their relatives, and I went there with the third aunt to watch."

"Were you there?" Yu Li was stunned, "Why didn't I know?"

Cao Zhiqiang smiled and said, "There were so many people at that time. I was behind the crowd and you were in front. It's normal that you didn't see me."

"Oh, that's right." Yu Li nodded and grabbed a handful of melon seeds placed in the fruit plate on the stone table. "So, do you know that Sha Zhu has a biological son?"

"Of course." Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly.

I thought to myself, not only do I know it now, I have known it for a long time, much earlier than you know, and I have even been in contact with Lou Xiaoe before.

Yu Li smiled and took a sip of a melon seed. Then she smiled and nodded to Wu Qinghong. Then she picked up the cup of tea that Wu Qinghong poured for her and took a sip.

"Well, it's fragrant and delicious!" Yu Li exaggeratedly praised after drinking the tea, "What kind of tea is it? So fragrant? And it's also sweet?"

"Darjeeling black tea." Cao Zhiqiang said casually, "A black tea produced in the southern tip of the Himalayas, located in the town of Darjeeling in western India. It is one of the three most highly fragrant black teas in the world."

"Ah, imported tea?" Yu Li's eyes widened, "Foreign products?"

Cao Zhiqiang nodded with a smile: "Yes, when I went to Japan, I bought it there and brought it back."

Well, this is just an excuse. In fact, of course it is not the case. It is one of the rewards for signing in from the previous system.

The output of real Darjeeling black tea is not high, and the top-quality No. 2 tea from May to June is even rarer. Therefore, at least in China, there are currently very few real Darjeeling black teas. If there are, they are usually in the south and Beijing.

Very rare.

Cao Zhiqiang had been rewarded with this tea as a sign-in reward several times before, but he only drank it secretly and did not dare to take it out casually.

Because this kind of tea is obviously different from most current domestic black teas, you can drink it secretly, but you can't show it off casually.

It's better this time. After coming back from Japan, he can clean up a lot of things. As long as he says he bought them in Japan, everything will make sense.

The purpose of Cao Zhiqiang's doing this was not to show off in front of Yu Li, it was really unnecessary.

Because Cao Zhiqiang has passed the stage of showing off in front of Yu Li.

Just kidding, with Cao Zhiqiang's current worth and status, he is no longer on the same page as Yu Li and others. There is no need to show off in front of people like Yu Li to gain a sense of superiority.

In fact, if Uncle Lin hadn't reminded him to go home and see his relatives, and Cao Jiajia still lived here, he wouldn't have been able to remember going back to the courtyard.

The reason why Cao Zhiqiang wanted to whiten this tea was to give it as a gift in the future.

The recipients of this gift are mainly middle- and lower-level officials with whom he has a good relationship, such as Yu Deshui, Factory Director Li, and Secretary Dong.

As for giving it to my sister Cao Jiajia, it was just by the way. After all, she and her husband both like to drink black tea.

The reason for this was because Xia Siming was frail and sick in the past and did not dare to drink green tea. Over time, their family all liked to drink black tea, a less irritating tea.

"It's bought in Japan, it's really good." Yu Li said with a smile, "Oh, it's awesome to be able to go to Japan, it must be great there, right?"

"It's okay." Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "Okay, let's not talk about that anymore. What do you want to say to me?"

Yu Li then put down her tea cup and said with a straight face: "That's right, Cao Zhiqiang, since you were present at the time, I won't say anything anymore, but do you know what happened next?

Silly Zhu took his own son named He Xiao away, saying that he wanted to cook for him, and then Lou Xiao'e also followed him, do you know this?"

Cao Zhiqiang nodded: "I know, what's the matter?"

Yu Li said: "Then you should also know Lou Xiao'e, right? Do you know that her family is very rich?"

Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly: "Of course I know, although Lou Xiao'e, uh, I was still young when Aunt Lou left here, but when I grew up, my parents didn't mention it, so her family was rich.

, I still know."

"Indeed." Cao Jiajia nodded, "I was in junior high school when Aunt Lou left. I knew about it and my parents also mentioned it."

"That's enough." Yu Li said, "Think about it, Lou Xiao'e is rich and has given birth to a son to Sha Zhu. What is the purpose of coming back this time? I don't need to say more, right?"

Cao Jiajia couldn't help but frown: "You want to say that Lou Xiao'e came back to find Uncle Silly? Want to get back together with Uncle Silly through her son?"

"Isn't this for show?" Yu Li turned to Cao Jiajia, "I was there at that time. Oh, you don't know about that scene. It made one's eyes filled with tears, and that moved the world.

Let’s not talk about anything else, let’s talk about Lou Xiao’e. Hey, everyone looked stupid at that time, and others didn’t take a serious look at it at all.

Tell me, there has been no news from Lou Xiao'e for so many years, but now it's great that he suddenly came to the door with his son and asked his son to recognize his father. Why? Don't you want to reunite with Silly Zhu? "

"Don't talk nonsense." Uncle Yi couldn't help but said, "Lou Xiao'e brought her son to recognize her relatives, so she may not be reunited with Silly Zhu."

"Uncle One." Yu Li turned to look at Uncle One and said, "That's what happened, but you were not here at the time, so I don't know what Lou Xiao'e's expression was.

Eyes can't deceive people. When Lou Xiao'e looked at Sha Zhu's eyes and expression, she definitely had lingering feelings for her, and she definitely wanted to reunite with Sha Zhu.

Moreover, she brought her son to the house. Doesn’t this mean that she wants to take advantage of the mother and the son, and then steal her love with a knife?"

"Nonsense." Uncle Yi frowned and said, "If you wanted to get back together with Silly Zhu, why would you have gone so far? Why do you have to come now?"

"Perhaps it's because we didn't have such conditions in the past." Yu Li said with a smile, "She is a Hong Kong sister. She lives in Xiangjiang. It's probably not easy to come here. Besides, if you bring your children to recognize your relatives, you probably have to wait until the children are older.

Besides, if it’s too small, it would be troublesome to bring it over, don’t you think?”

"Absurd!" Uncle Yi said, "Even if this is the case, Silly Zhu is not that kind of person, and there is no way he would abandon Qin Huairu."

"That's impossible to say!" Yu Li shook her head, "How do Qin Huairu compare with Lou Xiao'e?

As for appearance, it might have been okay back then, but now I see that Qin Huairu is far worse than Lou Xiao'e.

When it comes to money, there's no comparison. Lou Xiao'e is a very wealthy person, and her outfit is extraordinary.

Not to mention, Lou Xiao'e also gave birth to a son to Sha Zhu.

If I were a fool, I would definitely choose Lou Xiao'e, who is rich, beautiful and has a biological son."

"Yes, that's the truth." Yan Jiecheng nodded again, "If I were a fool, I would choose Lou Xiao'e."

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Uncle Yi immediately frowned and said, "I believe Silly Zhu, he can't do that kind of thing!"

"Okay, okay." Cao Zhiqiang suddenly interrupted, "Stop arguing!"

Immediately afterwards, Cao Zhiqiang turned to look at Yu Li: "Aunt Yu, Aunt Lou is here. Does it have anything to do with me who Uncle Silly chooses or not?"

"That must be true!" Yu Li clapped her hands, "I am here today just to remind you and talk about this matter, so that you, the noble man, will not be busy and not pay attention for a moment, and suffer huge losses as a result.
