Hu Lin smiled. “Then I’ll have to trouble Boss Song to lead the way.”

Song Yao brought Hu Lin to the town one after another , attracting the attention of a few people by the roadside.

Because Song Yao’s marriage was held in the town, not many villagers in the Song Manor had seen Zuo Huo. A few villagers even went up to Gu Li and whispered, “Your son-in-law is fair and clean! He even wears a pair of black-framed glasses. How refined! Your Yao is really lucky!”

Gu Li’s expression instantly turned ugly. She explained with a dark expression, “Thank you, but this isn’t my son-in-law. My son-in-law, Zuo Huo, is a soldier and is very handsome! If you want to see him, come to my house tomorrow. Otherwise, my son-in-law will return to the capital in a few days.”

Seeing that she had guessed wrongly, the person’s expression was extremely ugly. She smiled apologetically. “No, no. There’s still a lot of work in the fields. I won’t disturb you anymore!”

As soon as she finished speaking, she rushed to the ground.

Gu Li couldn’t be bothered to continue talking to the woman. She walked to Song Yao and whispered, “The big boss from the city is not bad, but don’t forget that you have a partner. If you do anything to let my son-in-law down again, I won’t let you off!”

Song Yao was caught between laughter and tears. “Mom, don’t worry. It’s not like I don’t know my limits. Boss Hu is at most a guest. How can I be with another man behind Zuo Huo’s back?”

Gu Li heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this. “Of course! Zuo Huo treats you so well. You can’t do anything to let him down!”

Song Yao was amused by Gu Li’s serious expression. “I know, Mom.”

At night, Gu Li made a large pot of braised meat.

The courtyard was filled with the fragrance of braised meat. Even Wang Hong was attracted.

“Yo, Song Yao’s mother stewed meat again?”

Gu Li scooped out the meat from the pot. “Yes, I’ve stewed a pot. Do you want to go in and try it?”

Wang Hong was silent for a while. To be honest, the meat stewed by Gu Li was indeed fragrant, but Wang Hong had taken advantage of Song Yao’s family previously.

It was Song Yao’s business to be sensible. As an elder, she couldn’t be ignorant.

Wang Hong smiled and said, “Forget it. My man is waiting for me to go back and cook.”

After saying that, she prepared to go back. However, Gu Li was a warm-hearted person. She pulled Wang Hong’s arm and said, “Come to my house to eat. I have a guest at my house today. There are many dishes!”

“Forget it!” Wang Hong felt even more embarrassed. “If there’s really no other way, let’s gather another day. My son will be transferred back to town to teach soon. I’ll get my son to bring you to the state-run restaurant to order food!”

“Alright!” Gu Li thought for a long time and did not continue to give in. However, there was so much braised meat at home that she could not finish it in a short period of time.

Gu Li simply cut a piece of medium-sized pork belly and brought it to Wang Hong. “Then bring this back to your Old Liu to eat.”

Wang Hong was dumbfounded. It had always been her family taking advantage of Song Yao’s family. Other than the exercise books, she had never bought anything else for Song Yao.

Wang Hong pushed Gu Li’s hand away. “Even if I have to bring it back, I should give you the money for such a big piece of meat!”

Gu Li smiled and said, “No need! We’re all neighbors. Why are you being so polite to me? Some time ago, my Yao took an exam. It’S all thanks to your help in the shop.”

“What’s the big deal? Didn’t Yao give me a salary for all the days I worked?” Wang Hong’s tone was a little helpless.

In fact, she was the one who took advantage of Song Yao.

Wang Hong took out a two-dollar note from her pocket and handed it to Gu Li. “I’m taking advantage of you for such a big piece of meat!”

Gu Li was very angry. “We’re all neighbors. Why are you treating me like an outsider?”

“How is this treating me like an outsider? You gave me such a big piece of meat. It’s really unreasonable if I don’t give you some money!” After Wang Hong said that, she insisted on stuffing the money into Gu Li’S pocket.

Gu Li pushed her, but Wang Hong picked up the plate of meat and returned to the courtyard. Gu Li was so anxious that she shouted behind her, “Old Liu’s wife! Why are you like this!”

Wang Hong smiled at her. “I can’t keep taking advantage of Yao, right?”

She waved at Gu Li. “Alright! You can go back first. We still have guests to entertain at home!”

Only then did Gu Li remember that there was a guest at home. She put away the two yuan and rushed back, coincidentally bumping into Song Xiao, who had just returned from collecting the chestnuts. “Mom, is Boss Hu at our house?” Song Xiao asked Gu Li with two softshell turtles in his hand..
