Liu Lian ran to Tao Huizhi's side, looking at the black and white half-ginseng and some dry hair on his mother's head, tied up scattered, because of sweat, wisps of sticking to his face, and the emaciated face that was already a little wrinkled, the only thing that remained unchanged was the soft gaze that looked at him.

Liu Lian only felt that he was panicking in his heart, although he was distressed, he was full of questions.

Seeing Liu Lian, Tao Huizhi's eyes dodged for a moment, but then as if she remembered something, she squeezed out a smile and said:

"San'er, when did you come back? Why don't you call home? ”

Liu Lian frowned, Tao Huizhi's expression changed just now and did not escape his eyes, it was obvious that his mother didn't want to talk about this food stall.

Looking around, seeing that Yang Hongjun was also a little evasive, Liu Lian felt that something was wrong, so he said in a deep voice:

"Mom, what the hell is going on, you tell me."

"What's going on?" Tao Huizhi's face was a little unnatural.

Tao Huizhi is a very honest kind of housewife, and she does her duty, and because of this, her two children, Liu Lian and Yang Xiaoning, are simple and kind-hearted, and now she is obviously insincere, which can be seen by everyone.

Liu Lian stared at his mother: "Mom, I'm asking about this shop, why did you come to open this food stall?" Didn't I give you money last time? Besides, even if you lack money, you should tell me? ”

Tao Huizhi's face was embarrassed, and she stood there speechless.

At this time, Yang Hongjun spoke: "San'er, it's not your mother's fault, I'm going to open it." ”

Yang Hongjun's expression was also a little awkward. He was grumpy though. He also loves to drink. But he is also a straight man, and these detours make him not very adaptable.

Liu Lian didn't give up because of Yang Hongjun's explanation, stared at him and asked, "Why do you want to open a store?" Is it a lack of money or what? ”

Although Liu Lian knows that his family is not very wealthy, but he has been here for so many years, it is impossible to suddenly say that he will open a store, if he really has this plan, or Yang Hongjun has this courage, he will not be confused for so many years.

In Liu Lian's impression. Yang Hongjun has always been the kind of person who can get by, he is drunk today, he has no great ambitions, in the past, if he wanted to say that Yang Hongjun wanted to open a store to do business, he didn't believe it if he killed Liu Lian.

In Liu Lian's mind, something must have happened at home, and this matter was not even enough for the 200,000 yuan he gave his mother before.

Liu Lian has only been away for more than two weeks, and it has only been more than half a month, how can the family suddenly need money so much?

Just now, his eyes swept over his mother and Yang Hongjun. Although both of them had some physical problems, they did not have any signs of serious illness. And my sister can't.

If it's not a disease, what is it?

For his mother, Liu Lian is not too tight, but for Yang Hongjun, Liu Lian doesn't have so many scruples, staring at him with sharp eyes, which makes Yang Hongjun's already complicated heart even more entangled, and quickly avoids Liu Lian's gaze.

"Brother?"

Just as Liu Lian was about to say something, a crisp voice sounded, but the voice was a little uncertain.

Liu Lian turned his head, Yang Xiaoning was standing on the side, although his delicate face was covered with beads of sweat and a little tired, but when he saw that it was really Liu Lian, his eyes suddenly became bright and full of excitement.

For this sister, even if the current Liu Lian is no longer the Liu Lian of the past, but under the family affection that blood is thicker than water, he still worships and trusts his sister so much, and he has only known him for less than a month, and Liu Lian loves him from the heart.

However, the current appearance of his sister made Liu Lian feel as if there was something blocked in his heart, which was extremely uncomfortable.

Although in the Ming Dynasty, many fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls were wives or even mothers, but during the time when they came to the later generations, Liu Lian had gradually accepted the habits of the later generations.

My sister is just a freshman in high school, a child, and other people's girls are still coquettish at the knees of their parents at this time, but my sister is doing these things here.

Looking at the exhaustion and sweat on his sister's face that couldn't be concealed, Liu Lian felt even more uncomfortable.

If he doesn't have money, it doesn't matter, but he has money, and his mother and sister work so hard, how can Liu Lian not blame himself?

Yang Xiaoning put the tray in his hand on the table, ran over, and said happily:

"Brother, when did you come back, how did you find here?"

Yang Xiaoning is only a freshman in high school now, and her parents didn't tell her about the family, so she is still very happy that Liu Lian is back.

Liu Lian's gaze softened, and he was still a little distressed, brushed Yang Xiaoning's sweaty hair on the corner of his forehead, and smiled: "Oh, I just came back at night." ”

As he spoke, Liu Lian pulled Yang Xiaoning aside and said in a low voice: "Xiao Ning, brother asked you, is this store opened by the family?" ”

Yang Xiaoning nodded: "Yes, it's only been open for a few days, but the business is quite good." ”

Pointing to the table where most of them were full, Yang Xiaoning smiled: "See, although our family has been open for a short time, it is not worse than other people's business." ”

Seeing the smug look in Yang Xiaoning's eyes, Liu Lian sighed in his heart, it seems that his sister doesn't know the inside story, if Yang Hongjun and his mother didn't have that weird reaction, Liu Lian wouldn't think much about it, but this is obviously a problem.

And Tao Huizhi saw Liu Lian pulling Yang Xiaoning aside, and looked at Yang Hongjun with some concern: "His father, this is ...... What if San'er knows about this? ”

Tao Huizhi didn't dare to think about his son's hard-earned money, but it was so gone, what kind of reaction he would have.

Yang Hongjun shook his head, wiped his sweat with the towel around his neck, his eyes were full of sorrow, and sighed:

"Xiao Ning doesn't know, as long as we don't say it, he doesn't know, otherwise...... Alas......"

With a sigh, Yang Hongjun stopped talking, lowered his head and continued to flip the crayfish in the wok.

Tao Huizhi turned her head, looked at her son and daughter, her eyes were full of bitterness, and she said in her heart: San'er, it's all blame on the mother, these 200,000 mothers have never thought of using it, so they want to save for you to marry a daughter-in-law, alas...... Hindrance......

And the other side.

Although Liu Lian saw that his sister didn't know anything, he still asked:

"Why did the family suddenly want to open a store?"

Yang Xiaoning glanced at Yang Hongjun's side. Suddenly whispered: "That time my parents spoke." I overheard. Dad said that the children are older, and there are more and more places to use money, and it will be too late if you don't make money, and then within a few days, this food stall was opened. ”

Yang Xiaoning didn't know at all that this was just the last words of Yang Hongjun and the two at that time, but she happened to hear it, so she took this as the reason for opening the store.

At that time, Yang Xiaoning felt a little guilty. I hate why I haven't grown up yet, so that I can make money for my family, and I make my parents work so hard.

But in addition to guilt, Yang Xiaoning was also happy, just like Liu Lian thought, Yang Hongjun did not have any big ambitions, but in the past, it was impossible for them to say anything as children, and they couldn't force their parents to go out to earn money.

And now, seeing Yang Hongjun, he began to work hard. still has to make money, Yang Xiaoning is of course very happy. This is also the reason why although she worked hard to help, she did not have any grievances.

Especially when she sees the money her parents earn every night, her heart blossoms, so she is tired and happy now, and her mood is much more cheerful than before.

During this time, they all prepared dishes during the day, and the stall started at four or five o'clock in the afternoon, and remained open until four or five o'clock in the morning, so Yang Xiaoning didn't have time to call Liu Lian.

Yang Xiaoning didn't have a mobile phone, while Yang Hongjun and Tao Huizhi didn't dare to call Liu Lian, for fear of leaking out.

Liu Lian frowned, although this reason seemed very reasonable, just like Yang Hongjun suddenly woke up, but his intuition told him that the truth would definitely not be so simple.

At this moment, Zhu Zhengtai came over and asked, "Brother, do you need any help?" ”

At that time, Yang Xiaoning was bullied by his classmate's mother at school, and in the end, Liu Lian asked Zhu Zhengtai to help solve it, so Zhu Zhengtai met Yang Hongjun, Yang Xiaoning and Tao Huizhi, and knew that this was Liu Lian's family.

And Yang Hongjun and Yang Xiaoning had already recognized Zhu Zhengtai, Yang Hongjun's eyes suddenly lit up, and he didn't know what he thought.

Liu Lian shook his head and said, "Brother Zhu, it's okay." ”

Saying that, Liu Lian glanced back at Xiong Tao and those people who didn't dare to leave behind, and said, "Brother Zhu, I have something at home today, so I won't entertain you, please forgive me." ”

Zhu Zhengtai nodded and said, "I understand." ”

After speaking, he patted Liu Lian's shoulder and said with a smile: "If you have anything to call your eldest brother, don't go outside." ”

"I know, thank you, big brother." Liu Liandao.

Looking at Zhu Zhengtai, Liu Lian nodded, his heart full of emotion.

Although he didn't want to get too close to Zhu Zhengtai, in the world, even cultivators like them who surpassed ordinary people had some troubles of their own, and it was impossible to be alone in the mud.

And Zhu Zhengtai can't be said to be a bad person, from the confrontation with Liu Lian at the beginning, to the current hush and ask for warmth and help in every detail, although Liu Lian knows that the reason why Zhu Zhengtai is like this is because he sees his own strength, but this is difficult to disgust Liu Lian.

Even, for Zhu Zhengtai, Liu Lian began to be a little more grateful.

This is a debt of favor, even if Liu Lian knows that this is Zhu Zhengtai's favor investment, but his approach and grasp of the scale make Liu Lian impeccable, and there will be no pressure.

For any needs of Liu Lian, he fully supported him, never asked Liu Lian anything, and even now, he has not asked Liu Lian to do anything.

As for Liu Lian's family affairs, he kept a certain distance, and just told Liu Lian: You can say anything about it.

What could be more thoughtful?

Therefore, this thanks, Liu Lian is from the bottom of his heart.

Feeling Liu Lian's sincerity, Zhu Zhengtai smiled slightly, waved his hand and left.

I don't know what Zhu Zhengtai said to Xiong Tao, and the group left.

It's just that when they left, Xiong Tao and Peng Zhankui couldn't help but look this way, and even looked at Yang Hongjun and Tao Huizhi.

Liu Lian believed that with the appearance of Zhu Zhengtai, even if Xiong Tao was given a hundred guts, he would not dare to touch his family, so Liu Lian did not take it to heart.

And Zhu Yue and a few people also came over, they didn't ask about what happened just now, but glanced at Yang Hongjun and them, Zhu Yue asked, "What's wrong, this is your family?" (To be continued.) )
