Chapter 270 People should learn to be content.
I gave this gift because I genuinely like Su Niannian, this younger generation.
As it turned out, this child gave him so much meat.
Grandpa Jiang felt a warm feeling in his heart.
With a smile on his face, he carefully placed the meat away, thinking how happy his wife would be to see so much meat when he got home.
Su Niannian rode her bike towards the county town; the morning air was wonderful.
Breathing in the fresh air, Su Niannian felt very comfortable.
More than an hour later, Su Niannian arrived outside Lü Hongliang's house.
The courtyard gate was ajar, and someone inside was washing a pot that they would use later.
Lu Hongliang sat on a small stool in the courtyard, puffing on his cigarette.
Su Niannian parked her bicycle at the gate, then walked over to the gate and knocked on it.
Lu Hongliang saw Su Niannian arrive through the half-open courtyard gate and quickly stood up.
He threw the unfinished cigarette butt on the ground, stomped it out, and quickly walked away.
"Little Su, you're here so early! Come in, come in quickly." Lu Hongliang opened the courtyard gate and welcomed Su Niannian in.
Su Niannian just smiled.
After entering the courtyard, Su Niannian did not see Yang Hongmei, Lü Hongliang's wife.
"We're divorced."
Seeing that Su Niannian's gaze seemed to be searching for someone, Lü Hongliang knew that Su Niannian was looking to see if Yang Hongmei was there.
He then spoke first.
"Hmm, that's pretty fast," Su Niannian said casually.
“Well, actually, Hongmei used to often take things and money from home back to her parents’ home. Since my situation here is alright, I’ve never really said anything to her about it.”
"I can understand her concern for her family. As long as it's not too outrageous, I'll just turn a blind eye. Life goes on no matter how it is."
"As soon as I started making money from braised pig offal, Hongmei became increasingly outrageous."
Lu Hongliang told Su Niannian about what had happened recently.
The main reason is that I've been holding it in for too long, and I just wanted to get it all out, regardless of whether it's appropriate or not.
It turns out that ever since Lü Hongliang started earning more money, Yang Hongmei would often tell him that it was inappropriate for Su Niannian to take the lion's share of the profits when she only contributed a little seasoning.
They wanted to encourage Lü Hongliang to dump Su Niannian and start his own business, or to talk to Su Niannian and reduce the amount of money she would receive.
Yang Hongmei doesn't understand, but doesn't Lü Hongliang understand?
The reason why the braised pig offal business is so profitable is because of Su Niannian's seasoning.
Without Su Niannian, Lü Hongliang probably wouldn't be able to sell his braised pork offal for even two cents a pound.
Where else can you find such success and earn so much money?
Lu Hongliang and Yang Hongmei said that she was too ungrateful.
There was a previous incident where Yang Hongmei stole money. Actually, Su Niannian only knew about that one time; there were several other times in private.
Later, because Su Niannian intentionally or unintentionally warned Yang Hongmei, she behaved herself for a few days.
As a result, he wanted Lü Hongliang to work with Yang Jizu.
In Lü Hongliang's eyes, Yang Jizu was a hopeless case, and Lü Hongliang absolutely could not do business with Yang Jizu.
And that's how that incident happened again.
In fact, Lü Hongliang felt that as long as Yang Hongmei could admit her mistakes and correct them, he didn't necessarily have to get a divorce.
The main problem was that Yang Jizu injured his own mother.
Lu Hongliang's father died early, and his mother raised several children with great difficulty.
Lu Hongliang believes that filial piety is the most important virtue, especially considering how hard his mother has worked. He is reluctant to spend his own money on food and clothing, but gives everything to his children.
Therefore, Lü Hongliang could not accept Yang Jizu's behavior of harming his mother.
Yang Jizu not only refused to apologize, but also made sarcastic remarks, even saying that the old lady was still alive, and that he would pay for her coffin if she died.
Lu Hongliang simply couldn't accept this.
They beat up Yang Jizu.
Because Lü Hongliang beat Yang Jizu, Yang Hongmei insisted on divorcing Lü Hongliang.
Sure enough, the divorce certificate was issued two days ago.
According to Yang Hongmei, a woman as hardworking and beautiful as her, even if she remarries, she will definitely find someone better than Lü Hongliang.
Lü Hongliang just found it funny.
Lu Hongliang felt that everything was Yang Hongmei's own choice. Anyway, the divorce was over, and now he could focus on his business and take good care of his elderly mother.
Su Niannian stood aside and also felt that people should not be too greedy.
Although Lü Hongliang was only helping himself sell braised pork offal, it was definitely a business that could make a lot of money.
Now that they're divorced, I can continue doing business with Lü Hongliang.
That's right, Su Niannian doesn't know how long this business can last either.
"Try to be more open-minded. There are still many people who would be interested in Brother Lü's conditions." Su Niannian smiled, walked to her bicycle, and picked up the empty basket.
Seeing that Su Niannian had brought seasonings and sauces with her, Lü Hongliang felt much more at ease.
Lu Hongliang thought that after what happened last time, Su Niannian might not cooperate with him again.
Unexpectedly, we can continue to cooperate.
This is truly an unexpected delight.
Lu Hongliang quickly walked over and prepared to take the basket from Su Niannian's hands.
The basket was originally empty, but Su Niannian put sauce and seasoning packets inside before handing it to Lü Hongliang.
"Thank you, Su Niannian. I thought that after what happened last time, you wouldn't work with me anymore," Lu Hongliang said with a smile.
“They are them, and you are you. I still think Brother Lü is a very good person,” Su Niannian replied with a smile.
"I'll go inside and get you the money." Lü Hongliang handed the seasonings to his friend, then asked another person to call Lao Qian.
He went inside to get money for Su Niannian.
Su Niannian sat on a small stool in the courtyard, waiting.
A short while later, Lü Hongliang went inside, took out the money, and handed it to Su Niannian.
Su Niannian counted it; it was still nine hundred yuan, ninety ten-yuan bills, not a single one missing.
Su Niannian smiled and carefully put the money away.
“I sent someone to call Lao Qian. When he came over yesterday, he said your goods were selling like hotcakes. He’s so happy every day now.” Lu Hongliang pulled the small stool away from Su Niannian and sat down.
Su Niannian felt that Lü Hongliang was a really good person and had a very good sense of boundaries.
Now that he's divorced and has no ties, he can work for himself from now on, which is really great.
Su Niannian's business will expand significantly in the future, so she will need familiar people she has worked with before to help her.
Lao Qian is one, and Lü Hongliang is another.
Before long, Old Qian came over with a big smile on his face.
Today, Lao Qian carried a new bag, which looked a size bigger than his old one.
It was bulging inside, indicating that it contained a considerable amount of money.
"Little Su, I brought a lot of money with me today!" Old Qian said to Su Niannian with a smile, patting the bag at his waist.
