Flowers in full bloom

Chapter 327 Appreciation and Liking Are Different

Hua Lei gently touched Xiao Yuan's head and said.

"We should look at what we have gained from the Marquis' Mansion, and not be on guard against the Marquis' Mansion just because the two ladies are unfriendly to us. After all, we have no relatives or friends with the Marquis' Mansion, and they have no obligation to take care of us. So even if we really have to be on guard, we have to keep it within our control.

It's okay for us to think more in order to protect ourselves, but we can't go too far and we can't play tricks. If you really think it would be beneficial for us to find a few more companies, you can discuss it with me in advance and then ask Grandfather Pei for his opinion. It would be better to do so.

We cannot think we are smart and treat old Marquis Pei as a fool, nor can we take the Marquis's contribution to us for granted, nor can we turn a blind eye to the protection the Marquis's mansion has always provided to us.

Isn't there a saying that goes like this? Even if we can't repay a drop of kindness with a spring, we can't be ungrateful, understand? "

Bud whispered softly.

Xiaoyuan sat opposite, nodded and said, "I understand, sister. I will discuss it with you first next time." After a pause, she spoke hesitantly.

"Sister, I actually have another reason for doing this."

Hualei was stunned and asked, "Are there any other reasons?"

Carefully looking at Hua Lei's expression, Xiao Yuan said, "I'm not afraid that Grandfather Pei will be disappointed with me. Even if Grandfather Pei is really disappointed with me, I will still do this. Because I don't want Grandfather Pei to control you in the future, especially your marriage."

Hua Lei was stunned. Why did this bring up her marriage again?

"Sister, I will remember all the help the Marquis' Mansion has given us. When I grow up and have the ability, I will repay you. But I can't take this risk. Grandfather Pei is too shrewd. You can't beat him."

Hua Lei didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I'm not going to fight with Grandfather Pei, nor am I going to play tricks on him. I just want to quietly lean against a big tree to enjoy the shade, and take the opportunity to get more money in. If I can't win, then I can't win."

Xiao Yuan looked at Hua Lei, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Sister, do you want to marry Brother Rong Jin?"

Hua Lei was stunned again. Why did they bring up Rong Jin again? "Xiao Yuan, what do you want to say?"

"Sister, although I think Brother Rong Jin is very good, he is handsome, a good person, and treats you well, Grandfather Pei and Grandmother Pei are also good to us, and the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion is also of high status, but I don't think you are suitable to marry into the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion.

Because Rong Jin's mother doesn't like you, if you marry her, she will make things difficult for you and you will be unhappy. "Xiao Yuan mustered up the courage to say.

Uh, this...where is this going?

"So what does this have to do with the sweater business?"

"If only you and the Marquis' Mansion work together to make wool sweaters, others will misunderstand you. If Grandfather Pei says something specious outside, you won't be able to explain yourself even if you jump into the Yellow River.

Then, you might be forced to marry into the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion due to other people's gossip, which would be troublesome. If the four families work together, such a problem will not occur. "

I can only say that Hualei was shocked again. Was this guy also a time traveler? No, I had traveled through time and space and had never thought about these things.

Uh, that’s not right. In my mind, I never thought that I would marry someone because of rumors.

But, no matter what? Xiao Yuan is doing this for her own good, so she has to accept this favor. After all, in the current Great Sheng Dynasty, a woman's reputation is indeed very important. Hua Lei thought for a while and nodded.

"I think what you said makes sense. It is better to take precautions before they happen than to mend the situation after it has happened. Then I will listen to you, and the four of us will do it together.

I am thinking carefully about how to divide the shares. It doesn’t matter if I don’t have a say, because if we control each other, I should be the one who benefits the most. After all, the technology is still in my hands for the time being. "

Xiaoyuan smiled happily, and the brother and sister finally reached a consensus.

Xiao Yuan looked at Hua Lei, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Sister, what do you think of Yun Hai's Sixth Brother?"

Hua Lei looked at Xiao Yuan suspiciously, "Why? How would I know what he is like? I've only met him a few times and we haven't said anything. I don't know him."

Indeed, according to Hua Lei's experience in her previous life, Bai Yunhe was like a tourist in the tour group she led. After meeting him a few times, she felt that he was a good-looking, socialistic, and intelligent guest who was good at flirting with girls. As for the others, she really didn't know him well and he was not even a colleague.

Xiao Yuan looked at Hua Lei speechlessly and said inwardly, "Haven't you met enough? Haven't you talked enough? Many people meet for the first time when they get married. Well? Are you still not satisfied?"

After a slight hesitation, he continued, "One time before, when we were chatting in the building, Yunhai said that his mother admired you very much."

Hua Lei was startled. Is Xiao Yuan trying to set her up? No way. Hua Lei put down the quill in her hand, looked at Xiao Yuan, and asked, "What do you think of Yun Hai's riding skills?"

Xiao Yuan was a little confused about Hua Lei's thinking. He was just telling her that Yun Hai Niang admired her, so why did she suddenly ask him such an irrelevant question? However, he still nodded and replied, "Very good."

"Then do you envy him and admire him very much?" Hua Lei asked again.

Xiaoyuan nodded involuntarily again.

"So do you like him?" Hua Lei asked again.

"Uh... I don't like it." Xiaoyuan hesitated for a moment, but still answered honestly.

"See? This is the difference between appreciation and liking, or they are two completely different things. Yunhai Niang may appreciate me, but she only appreciates one of my abilities, such as making money. However, it does not mean that she will definitely like me and accept me as her daughter-in-law." Hualei said calmly.

Xiao Yuan lowered his head and thought for a while, then said, "Sister, although I hate Yun Hai, I think he is not a bad person. In many aspects, I think he is very good. If a mother can raise a child like this, she should be a reasonable person, right?"

"So what do you think of Brother Rong Jin and Sister Zhenzhu's character?" Hua Lei asked again.

Xiaoyuan lowered his head.

"So, Xiaoyuan, you can't just look at one side of anything. Brother Rongjin and Sister Zhenzhu are both good people, right? But they were both taught by Madam Han, and Madam Han looks down on us, right?"

Xiaoyuan nodded and pursed his lips.
