Quick Wear: The Villain is a Little Pitiful

Chapter 188: I Really Want to Marry You 17

The light bulb was quickly replaced. Li Li connected the wires one by one, jumped off the stool, and turned on the power switch with swift hands and feet. In an instant, all the lights in the room lit up.

Li Li dusted off his hands, put the screwdriver and other things back, and prepared to leave. "Okay."

"Hey," Su Yiwen called him, "Why don't you take the flashlight?"

Li Li glanced at him and said, "The road is dark at night. Go back and use it after you finish learning. I'm leaving first."

Tong Xiyuan was inexplicably fed a lot of dog food here, and when he saw Su Yiwen's reluctant look, he took the initiative to say, "Brother Li, you haven't eaten yet, stay and join us. When Teacher Su and I finish our study, you can go back together."

He thought Li Li would hesitate to hide his feelings, but he agreed without even thinking, "Okay, I'll go to the yard and wash my hands."

Su Yiwen felt embarrassed for Li Li and said to Tong Xiyuan in a sheepish tone, "He is used to being careless."

Tong Xiyuan didn't say anything. He cleaned the table and sat down again. He started discussing learning difficulties with Su Yiwen.

Outside, Li Li washed his hands and sat down at the dining table without hesitation. After taking a glance, he said in surprise, "Sister-in-law, you guys are eating really well, with chicken soup and eggs."

Fan He peeled an egg, glanced at him, and responded faintly.

Li Li picked up the chopsticks and said, "Then I will also benefit from it today."

He was not particular about eating and drank a bowl of soup with a huff. Fan He silently moved the bowl of peeled eggs towards himself and picked up a clean handkerchief to wipe his hands carefully.

"You women are so particular," Li Li laughed after seeing this. He saw how carefully Fan He used the handkerchief and thought of something. He changed the subject and asked, "Sister-in-law, is this handkerchief you are using expensive? How much is it?"

Fan He guessed who he wanted to buy it for, curled his lips and said, "Fifty, imported material, better than silk."

With a clang, Li Li dropped his chopsticks on the table in shock. He glanced at the clean white handkerchief reluctantly, touched his head and said, "It's really expensive."

As expected of the wife of a chef from a state-owned restaurant, she can even afford a fifty-yuan handkerchief.

How long would it take him to save up enough money to buy one for Su Yiwen?

Fan He raised his eyelids and looked at him, "Do you want to buy it?"

Li Liang screamed, and his face turned red.

Fan He pretended to be embarrassed and thought about it, then reluctantly gave it up, "I still have one piece. If you want it, I'll sell it to you at a low price."

Tong Xiyuan bought that piece of money casually in the town later for less than one dollar. He never used it after buying it, so he used it to cheat people.

Li Li's eyes lit up, "Really?"

"Really," Van He said, "You fixed the light bulb in my house, I only want ten dollars from you."

Ten dollars is ridiculously expensive.

But that material was imported from abroad. Li Li gritted his teeth and thought about it. Before Su Yiwen went to the countryside, his family lived in the county town, and he ate and used the best. Now he has suffered so much in the village, and all he had was a better handkerchief. Wouldn't he be reluctant to buy it for Su Yiwen?

buy!

Must buy!

The two exchanged the money and the goods. Li Li whispered, "Sister-in-law, please don't tell Brother Tong. I'm afraid he will scold you for being a spendthrift."

Of course Fan He didn't say it, because his Yuanyuan would definitely be unhappy if he said it.

He stood up and took the peeled eggs to the inner room. He also checked the distance between Tong Xiyuan and Su Yiwen while they were studying. He walked out only after making sure that they were not too close.

The moon was high in the sky, and the old pendulum clock in the room tinkled, announcing that it was eleven o'clock in the middle of the night.

"Sister-in-law," Li Li once again looked at the two people studying at the desk in the room, then turned back to ask Fan He, "Why don't you take care of it?"

They have been studying for so long, it's already late at night, and Fan He is not anxious, but he is. His teacher Su likes men, and what if he falls in love with Tong Xiyuan, the cook, because of studying?

Fan He was calm but still a little angry. "He is my man, how can I control him?"

Li Li choked and said, "So we're just going to let them continue to learn like this?"

As soon as he finished speaking, two people from the inner room came out.

Su Yiwen was still holding the textbook, his face full of excitement, "Xiyuan, can I come to see you tomorrow? Can we study English tomorrow?"

"Okay." Tong Xiyuan paused and looked at Fan He's expression. Surprisingly, the other party was not angry or dissatisfied.

After getting his answer, Su Yiwen left happily. After he walked a long way, Li Li stuffed a handkerchief into his hand.

"I bought it today," Li Li winked at him, "Guess how much it cost?"

Su Yiwen studied the fabric and pattern of the handkerchief. "50 cents? Not bad, but I don't like to use this."

Li Li stood there in a daze as if he had been struck by lightning.

Was it his sister-in-law who was cheating him, or was it that Su Yiwen's life in the past was too good to be true?

After speculating for a while, Li Li decisively chose the latter.

On the other hand, once the outsiders left, Fan He could no longer pretend.

"You studied from seven to eleven, you said hundreds of words to him, smiled thirteen times, and the closest distance between you and him was only half a meter. You even gave him one of the eggs I peeled for you," he gritted his teeth while blocking Tong Xiyuan's way, and said dangerously, "Yuanyuan, do you think you've gone too far? Should you coax me?"

Tong Xiyuan didn't expect that he still had time to remember this, and hurriedly said, "Coax, coax, coax, how do you want me to coax you?"

After all, it was that kind of thing, and no one was researching any weird toys yet, so Tong Xiyuan was fearless.

Fan He raised his hand and patted him, and heard the big pendulum clock outside tell the time again, "Save it and we'll do it together next time."

Tomorrow is not a day off, Tong Xiyuan has to get up early to go to work in town.

Thinking of this, Fan He frowned and felt that he should speed up the time to move to town.

***

The next day, they went to town together, one to work and the other to a garment factory.

"You want to buy this factory? Comrade, do you know that our boss has run away? Now the workers are waiting for their wages, and you can't even pay the first month's wages. What? You only have a hundred yuan? Then what are you buying? Gambling? What are you betting on? Principal and interest in one month... How is that possible? Can you sign a contract?... Okay, wait a minute..."

Fan He sat in the factory for the whole morning and got the first contract in his life at noon.

He coughed softly, sat on a chair and looked through the contract seriously, put it down, and said to the person in charge who was still holding his post in the factory: "The contract is OK, but I will sign it this afternoon."

The person in charge can do whatever he wants, he can sign if he wants, if not, forget it. Anyway, their factory will go bankrupt if any further delays, and now no one has the motivation to continue.

Lunch time is the busiest time for state-owned restaurants.

The dishes, steamed buns and rice had already been prepared, and Tong Xiyuan was helping at the window holding a spoon for serving the rice.

"Hello, are there discounts for meals for employees' families?"
