Chapter 3 Support her

"Well, I'm back." Li Nian silently withdrew his hand and reluctantly twitched the corners of his lips: "I'm going to the canteen first."

The canteen was euphemistically called a joint venture between her and Li Yuheng, but from the time it was built to the time it was purchased, the Li family never paid a dime.

Li Yuheng also took 10,000 yuan from his parents. After some brainwashing, she agreed with him to keep it temporarily and keep it as a reserve fund.

The ten thousand yuan was never touched until the end.

Even with the 100,000 yuan, they had been thinking about it for a long time, saying that if they gave the money to them, they would definitely lose money if they invested it in the canteen, and other reasons.

Fortunately, she persisted at that time. With the canteen there, she could always make back one hundred thousand yuan.

If it were given to the Li family, it would really be a meat bun beating a dog.

Watching Li Nian walking towards the canteen, Sun Qin grabbed her and said considerately:

"Nian Nian, you are tired after coming back from your parents' home. Go home and rest first. Yu Heng is watching over you at the canteen."

Li Nian sneered in her heart, how could she not know what Sun Qin had planned?

It was nothing more than Li Yuheng secretly taking money from the canteen while she was away.

She had noticed this situation several times. Li Yuheng explained that he was a grown man with pride and felt shameless when he reached out to ask his wife for money.

As a lover, she also felt that it was unjustifiable that Li Yuheng had no money, and with a family, there was no need to calculate so carefully.

Simply turn a blind eye.

But today, the Li family doesn't want to take away even a penny from her.

She took care of everything in the canteen. She was often so hungry that she only ate one bag of bread a day. Neither the Li family nor the couple thought of helping.

Even her sister-in-law’s school fees were paid by her.

Now looking back on all that happened, she really had a lot of resentment.

"I'm not tired. Yu Heng is not familiar with the prices of things in the store. I'm afraid he will sell things cheaply."

With that said, she pushed Sun Qin's hand away and walked to the canteen, ignoring Sun Qin's shouts.

Not far from the canteen, Li Nian's eyes were fixed on the man inside. Li Yuheng was chatting animatedly with the female customer while putting the money he received into his pants pocket.

It's this man, why is she blind?

Facing the canteen, Li Nian curled his lips, his clear eyes full of coldness.

This time I want you to kneel down and spit out the money you took!

"Yuheng!"

Seeing Li Nian trotting over, Li Yuheng quickly took out the hand in his pocket without any hesitation.

"Run slowly and don't fall. Didn't you say you were going to stay with your parents for a few days? Why did you come back so soon?"

"It's rare for you to come back on weekends, I'm afraid you'll be tired." Li Nian said with a half-smile.

There was no depth in Li Yuheng's narrow eyes, and he raised his lips sarcastically: "Do you think you got the money from the canteen, so you don't trust me?"

If it were his previous life, he would definitely be comforted if he was so yin and yang.

But now, every time she looks at this man, she feels like vomiting.

Li Nian opened the cash box and said calmly: "You are overthinking."

He counted the money in the cash box and pretended to be puzzled: "That's not right. The business of our canteen has always been very good. Now the goods sold and the money don't match up. It's strange."

She secretly observed Li Yuheng's expression and saw that his eyes were panicked, but she still pretended to be calm and explained:

“If there are too many customers, it will inevitably lead to money not being delivered.”

Li Nian counted the turnover again and placed the money heavily on the table:

"No, our canteen's daily turnover is almost 100, but now it's less than half!"

“You won’t be robbed by a thief, right?!”

The word 'thief' was said very seriously. Li Yuheng's face turned pale with a guilty conscience, and he immediately raised his voice and said:

"It's not a thief. Did you make a miscalculation?"

Seeing this man becoming increasingly irritable, you have touched his most humble spot, right?

A college student emerged from the ancestral graves of Lao Li's family. Who wouldn't envy him in the ten miles and eight streets of the village?

If the villagers knew that he stole money from his own shop, where would he put his face?

Li Nian's beautiful eyes glanced at his bulging trouser pocket, but said nothing.

There wasn't even an audience watching the show, so even if there was a fuss, it was just unhappiness between the two of them.

She wanted to discredit him and make him bear the title of 'thief'.

Let him never be able to hold his head high in the village!

Just when she was thinking about installing a camera, Li Yuheng became angry and deliberately walked away angrily.

*

In the evening, as soon as Li Nian returned to Li's house, he heard the sound of a car coming from outside the door.

Li Nian turned around and recognized the black car at a glance.

Isn't it the one Shang Yan drove during the day?

Li Nian was confused, what was he doing at Li's house?

When he reached the door, the Li family members also came out of the house.

"Is this car worth a lot of money?" Li Jiancheng muttered.

In the early 1990s, it was hard for anyone in the village to own a bicycle, let alone such a rare car.

Shang Yanyi stood beside the car, his outline still deep and clear in the dim light,

When Li Nian walked in, the man looked up.

Li Nian was caught off guard and met the man's eyes as deep as ink, and his heart suddenly palpitated.

Before she could speak, the man looked away and opened the trunk, "Uncle Li is afraid that you won't be used to living here, so let me bring you all the things you use frequently."

Li Nian blinked, it was indeed her father's style of doing things.

Several members of the Li family looked at the trunk and let out exclamations after seeing clearly what was inside.

"I've never seen these snacks before, and there are so many beautiful clothes and dolls."

"Wow, Mom, big brother, look, is that Big Brother?"

Li Tingting could not look past with envy. These things are what girls like.

Li Yuheng's face darkened and he asked coldly: "What do you mean? You think my family is poor? Are you using these things to insult us!?"

Isn't this a slap in the Li family's face?

Li Nian rolled his eyes and was speechless. Li Yuheng, a man with a heart as high as the sky, how could she insult them?

Shang Yan was already unhappy that the girl he loved married someone else, but when he heard Li Yuheng's questioning words, his anger surged into his heart.

He took two steps forward and pulled Li Nian behind him.

"Can you take good care of Li Nian?"

Shang Yan's words were full of coldness.

She has to take care of the canteen business during the day. Your family doesn't even have a decent bed, not to mention a new quilt. She doesn't get enough rest and is in bad health. Can you afford to compensate a daughter of the Li family?"

Li Yuheng was so angry that his chest felt tight.

"My family is poor and she married here voluntarily. It's none of your business!"

Shang Yan's tall body stood in front of her, blocking the dissatisfied and resentful sight of everyone in the Li family, giving her stability and support in this small space.

"Call me big brother with Nian Nian." Shang Yan knew that it was none of his business, but his heart felt like it was on fire and he had nowhere to go, and his voice was like the cold December air.
