Chapter 382: The Best On-Screen Duo!

I can't explain them all in a short while. In general, if you need to find Mr. Wen in the future, don't come here anymore. Just find me first, and I'll send someone to help you find Mr. Wen. It's mu...Sun Chengjian's eyes lit up, but Sun Siyuan frowned and subconsciously looked at Li Laoer and the others.

In the blink of an eye, a stout woman in her forties burst through the door. She wasn't particularly attractive, but her furious expression gave her a rather domineering and harsh look.

She wore a crimson silk dress, as if to emphasize her status as the legal wife. Unfortunately, paired with the rather old-fashioned gold hairpin behind her head, it did not bring out her elegance but instead looked vulgar and gaudy.

She entered the room without offering any greetings to Li Lao'er, a distinguished guest. Instead, she kicked Li Saozi with her foot.

Li Saozi stood with her back to the door, never expecting to be beaten. She was caught off guard and knocked down, screaming in pain. She clutched her daughter, Nannan, and ran to hide beside Li Laer.

The portly woman was still chasing after him, but Sun Chengjian stepped in and stopped her, feigning rebuke. "What are you doing We have distinguished guests here!"

Sun Siyuan was truly embarrassed, his face flushed red. He gritted his teeth and tried to appease her, "Sister-in-law, this is Mr. Li. He kindly brought some relatives to seek refuge with our clan. You shouldn't be rude, quickly apologize!"

The stout woman merely glanced at Li Lao Er and ignored Sun Siyuan, turning her head to yank Sun Chengjian's ear and scold him.

"Sun Chengjian, if you dare to bring anyone into the house, old woman will die with you today! There are three concubines and eight children at home, the rice jar is empty, and we're going to starve tonight! You don't care about that, but you even have the nerve to cause trouble for me"

She spoke, perhaps feeling a pang of sadness and injustice. She plopped down on the chair beside her and burst into loud sobs.

"Life is simply unbearable! Back in the day, I was a well-respected young lady from a noble family. How could I have been so blind to marry into this den of wolves! Oh, woe is me, I wish I were dead! What's the point of living anymore!"

Sun Chengjian paced anxiously, as if afraid his wife might commit suicide. He kept pleading with her relentlessly.

"Why are you crying I'm not a concubine, just my younger brother's servant bringing his niece to seek refuge..."

"Bah!" The stout woman spat forcefully, crying even harder.

"Those three concubines, which one wasn't you saying was pitiful and temporarily sheltered In the end, they all ended up in bed with you! Who knows what's going on Don't try to lie to me anymore!"

Sun Chengjian blushed, pulled his sleeve to cover his face, and whispered, "Just shut up, don't say everything."

Sun Siyuan gritted his teeth in anger, but there was nothing he could do.

Seeing that Lao Er Li's teacup was empty, yet he kept holding it and pretending to drink, he really wanted to find a crack in the ground to hide in.

If I had known that my cousin's family was like this, he wouldn't have come to seek refuge from the sea in the first place.

Not only is he embarrassing himself at home, but now he's even playing these petty tricks in front of Master Li...

Li Saozi held Nannan, and maybe she was frightened. She crawled to Sun Siyuan's side and cried her heart out.

"Master, please take us in! I beg you, spare my daughter and me! I regret staying with the old master. We're afraid we'll be killed here. I'm not afraid of death, but my mistress only has our daughter left! Oh, Master, please save us!"

Sun Siyuan looked at his cousin, seeing that he was putting on a show of deafness and dumbness. It was obvious that this uncle of his didn't want to get involved.

He was so angry, he felt like he was going to explode. He roared, "Shut up!"

Suddenly, the room fell silent.

Li Saozi dared not cry, and the fat woman stopped making a fuss.

Sun Siyuan took a deep breath and said, "Brother-in-law and sister-in-law, you don't want to take in Nuan Nuan, do you"

Sun Chengjian coughed and mumbled, "That's... Siyuan, you know our family is really burdened. Adding two more mouths would be difficult, and I'm also afraid it would put the children at a disadvantage..."

"Alright, I'll take them in!" Sun Sinyuan refused to hear his explanation, saying coldly, "Brother, give me a document. From now on, you don't have to worry about this child's food, clothing, shelter, or dowry. But equally, you can't interfere in anything she does, including her marriage!"

"Of course," Sun Chengjian let out a relieved sigh, trying hard to regain the face he had lost.

"I am her uncle, that is true, but I have no means to support her. Naturally, I cannot interfere in her affairs."

"Then write a document!" Sun Sizhen urged with a black face.

Sun Cheng established the seal-seeking brush and ink, wrote a document, signed his name, and also pressed his handprint.

Sun Sizhen also required the woman to sign her name and press her handprint.

The stout woman rolled her eyes and pursed her lips, but she did it anyway.

Sun Simiao dried his ink and folded the letter carefully before putting it in his bosom. He then rose to his feet and bowed to Li Laoer.

"Master, I am truly sorry today. My family has encountered misfortune, and I have caused you to laugh at us. Another day, I will invite Master for tea and apologize in person."

Li Lao'er also got up and smiled, "Sir, please don't be polite. I'm just here to help send someone over. You don't have to mind Li's family being nosy, that's all for now."

"Greetings, Master Sun!" Sun Siyuan gestured with his hand, and as he turned back occasionally, he saw his brother-in-law and sister-in-law standing together, both with smug expressions. There was no trace of the desperation they had shown earlier.

He could not bear it any longer and blurted out in a loud voice.

"Sister-in-law, don't claim to be a lady from a wealthy family anymore. After all, everyone knows your family runs a butcher shop! Does your father spend his days writing and painting on pigskin"

After saying that, he turned and walked out the door, ignoring the angry shouts from behind him.

Li Lao'er seemed not to hear, nor did he look at Li Saozi and Nannan again. He bowed and bid farewell, then got into the carriage.

Horse hooves clicked rhythmically on the cobblestones, and soon they turned out of the alley, disappearing from sight. The Sun family was nowhere to be seen.

Li Lao Er finally burst out laughing, "Hahaha, this Mr. Sun really knows how to speak! Writing and drawing on pigskin every day, hahaha!"

Even Ye Shan couldn't contain his laughter, his hand trembling so much that the whip nearly slipped from his grasp.

Grandma He lowered her head even further, her shoulders trembling uncontrollably.

After the three of them had laughed enough, they finally reached the main street.

Li Lao'er went to a snack shop and bought some treats his niece liked, such as sesame candies, peanut candies, and also two cans of candied fruit…

I didn't travel far outside the city when I unexpectedly encountered a carriage from the Hou Mansion.

The steward poked his head out of the carriage and bowed, smiling. “Master, are you entering the city If I had known earlier, I would have gone to pick you up and take you back to Suijintan together.”

Li La Er waved his hand and smiled, "Old Manager, what brings you here Is there something the matter"

"Master, please rest assured, there's nothing urgent. It's our young master who went to the palace for a discussion with the Emperor. He requested some snacks and candied fruits from the imperial kitchen and instructed me to bring them to the county princess quickly. He is worried that the county princess has been taking medicine and hasn't had any sweets."

"That's just perfect, I haven't bought any less either. Little Fu will be over the moon!"

After a couple of words, the two walked towards Suijin Beach, one after the other.

Meanwhile, carriages were already parked in front of the Li household.

It turned out that Li Zhensheng had sent back all the dead fish from the pier. Lao Tai Li was busy killing, salting, and drying fish with Shui Yun, Shui Ling, and others.

When Li Lao Er and the head housekeeper jumped out of the carriage, each carrying big and small bags of snacks and sweets, Li Laotai was truly amused.

"Are you planning to turn your house into a dessert shop The big boss just bought a lot back!"Li waved her hand and smiled, "It's nothing major, just that Zhensheng can't stay idle, so he took the kids out for a walk to see if they could find some business to do." 。" The villagers envied, “M...
