Song Yao was stunned for a moment, but she did not deny it. "Yes, so I don't plan to deliver the goods to him anymore. After all, I'm a divorced woman with a child. It's not good for me to always go to him. Moreover, he still has that kind of thoughts about me... All the more I can't go."
Song Xiao agreed with Song Yao. He had long seen that there was something wrong with the way Lin Feng looked at his sister, but this Lin Feng wasn't a good person either. Two years ago, there were rumors that he got a girl pregnant and was found by the other party.
"Sister! You did the right thing! Sangqiu County is so big. It's not like we can't do business!"
Song Yao said, "I just want to collect a few more catties of chestnuts and accompany Baby Xuan as he grows up. Let's forget about marriage."
After saying that, Song Yao rubbed the space between her eyebrows. Some time ago, she had thought of returning to school. After all, her grades back then were not bad, but now that she had a child, it was unrealistic for her to return to school.
Gu Li overheard the conversation between the siblings and immediately asked with a smile, "What's wrong? I just came in and heard you guys talking about divorced women and marriage... Why? Is something wrong with our Yao?" After Gu Li finished speaking, she immediately grabbed her daughter's hand and asked, "Tell me, what does that young man do? Has he been married before? Who else is in his family?"
"Mom!" Song Yao sounded a little helpless. "That's not true! Don't think too much."
"Alright, alright, alright! I'm not thinking nonsense!"
After saying that, Gu Li left the courtyard, but she was thinking about choosing a good family for her daughter! After all, it was so hard for Yao to take care of the child alone. She also had to wake up early and work late all day to earn money. How could she not have a man?
After dinner, Song Yao told her family about buying a house in town. When they heard that she had reserved a room for her parents on the second floor, the old couple was overjoyed.
It was said that his son was promising, but Song Ping felt that his daughter was even more capable than his son. Not only could she earn money, but she also knew how to think about the two of them.
Previously, when Song Yao got a divorce, many people in the village were gossiping. However, ever since Song Yao started her business, all the villagers in the Song Manor were envious of Song Ping!
When he thought about how Aunt Su had praised Song Yao for being considerate and sensible with her neighbors in the morning, Song Ping could not help but feel smug. When their entire family moved to the town, the villagers would praise him for being so lucky again!
The next morning, Song Yao went straight to Aunt Su's house to discuss the chestnuts with her. Aunt Su agreed without thinking.
"I don't know anything else, but I know about chestnuts. I can't sell a bunch of chestnuts in my hometown. I was wondering if you would accept chestnuts!" Song Yao smiled. "Yes! The food factory asked for more than 3,000 catties."
"So many! We're rich!" Aunt Su clapped her hands and continued, "If I had Imown, I would have planted some chestnuts at home!"
In the next few days, because of Aunt Su's help, it was much easier for Song Yao to put away the chestnuts. In just a few days, she received more than a thousand catties of chestnuts. Song Yao was also an open-minded person. After receiving the chestnuts for examination, she immediately paid. Even Aunt Su earned more than 20 yuan as compensation.
At the same time, the courtyard that Song Yao had bought in town was also built. Song Yao got her family to move in and bought a set of appliances in the city.
Seeing the new furniture being moved into Song Yao's courtyard one by one, Liu Mu's wife's eyes turned red!
She had been married to Liu Mu for so many years, and she was still living in an old house from 30 years ago. It was not that she had not thought of changing houses, but her monthly salary with Liu Mu was only more than 60 yuan. Every month, she had to send more than 30 yuan to her two sons who were studying in the distant Provincial City. How could she have any spare money to change houses?
Moreover, the houses in town were not cheap. A courtyard house cost more than a thousand yuan!
However, Song Yao only collected chestnuts a few times. Not only did she buy a house, but even the furniture was changed to new ones! Liu Mu's wife stood at the entrance of Song Yao's courtyard and pinched Liu Mu angrily.
"You said that although Song Yao's culture isn't high, she's good at doing business.. It's only been a few days, but she's already bought a house!"
***************************************************
62 Knowledge
Liu Mu rolled his eyes at his wife helplessly. "Can you stop staring at her educational background? I think Song Yao is quite good. She even knows to bring Old Song over after buying the courtyard house. At least she's better than the two prodigals in our family who only know how to ask for money from us!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Liu Mu's wife was so angry that she grabbed his ear and scolded, "Can someone who has never studied compare to someone who has studied? Our son will be very promising in the future! Don't think that Song Yao is earning money now. When our son graduates in the future, you can just wait to move to the provincial capital to enjoy life!"
While the couple was talking, they saw a young man reeking of sweat and a young woman wearing a flowery shirt and a golden necklace pushing a Phoenix brand car into the courtyard. "Is this Song Yao's house?"
The couple looked at each other, especially Liu Mu's wife. When she smelled Sun Hao's scent, she covered her mouth and nose in disgust. "So what if it is? Which poor relative from the countryside came to seek refuge with Yao?"
Sun Hao scratched his head. "You've misunderstood. We're not..."
"What are you doing in my house?"
Song Xiao pushed open the courtyard door and held Wei's hand to look out. Wei was still holding a toy pistol in his hand. As soon as he saw Sun Hao, he spat water at him.
Sun Hao didn't care either. He went forward and grabbed Song Xiao's hand and asked, "Xiao, I heard from Aunt that you changed houses in the town? It's really quite imposing! By the way, you still haven't given half of the money for the chestnuts last time. Tell your sister to come out and settle the money."
When he heard the word chestnut, it always reminded Song Xiao of the broken chestnuts last time. He was instantly furious. "You actually have the cheek to come over and ask for money? Do you know that because of the lousy chestnuts you two bought, my sister and I spent the entire night picking them!"
"What do you mean? What's wrong with the chestnuts?"
Sun Hao could not react for a moment, but his wife, Wu Xia, could not take it anymore. She shouted at the top of her lungs in the courtyard, "Is this your attitude when talking to your elders? Let me tell you! Even your sister has to give me some face when she speaks! You don't want to pay? That's fine. At most, I'll make a fuss to the village committee! Let's see which of us has thicker skin!"
Hearing this, Song Xiao gritted his teeth in anger. He had never seen such a shameless sister-in-law like Wu Xia! He couldn't wait to chase this couple out immediately.
However, he was worried that if this matter really blew up, it would affect his sister's business. He clenched his fists and could not make up his mind for a long time.
"Xiao! Who's looking for me?"
Song Yao pushed open the door and saw her cousin's family standing outside. She knew why they were here. She called Song Xiao in and heard Wu Xia shout at the top of her voice, "Song Yao! You're finally out! Tell me, when are you going to pay us back the money you owe us?"
Song Yao sneered. "What money?"
"You still have the cheek to ask? We've been collecting chestnuts for you for so long! We're still short of half the money. Do as you see fit!" Wu Xia said.
Song Xiao immediately retorted, "What money do we lack from you? Why don't you take a look at what chestnut you're collecting!"
"Song Xiao!"
Song Yao stopped her brother again and went straight into the courtyard to throw the 200 catties of rotten chestnuts in front of the two of them. "Look for yourself!"
Sun Hao was dumbfounded. Weren't these the chestnuts he had sent to Song Yao a few days ago? There was nothing wrong with them.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened the bag, the air was filled with an unpleasant rotten smell. Did he send this pile of rotten chestnuts over?
He immediately grabbed Wu Xia and questioned, "You were the one who accepted the chestnuts these few days. Tell me what's going on!"
Wu Xia was also shocked. "It was fine when I took it in... Besides, Yao took in so many chestnuts. How would she know which bag was ours? She might not want to give us a salary..."
Upon hearing this, Sun Hao was even angrier. "But that bag belongs to our family!"
He pointed at Wu Xia and was furious. He did not expect that his good deal would almost be ruined by his wife!
"You have to have a conscience. Yao treats us so well. How could you do such a thing?"
Seeing that she couldn't quibble, Wu Xia was embarrassed. She lowered her head and said, "I'm just greedy and took some chestnuts with bad taste, right? But that's because I'm poor, right? On the other hand, you, Song Yao! You can earn a few hundred yuan every time you take chestnuts. You don't care about this little money, right? How can you be so petty!"
Hearing this, Song Yao felt that it was ridiculous. "In that case, I should thank you?"

Wu Xia boasted shamelessly, "You're already so rich, but I don't see any relatives benefiting from you. I spent some money on you, but you're still so calculative...
"Shut up!" Sun Hao scolded fiercely. He took out ten yuan from his pocket and handed it to Song Yao. "1 know this isn't enough! Just you wait. I'll go home immediately to get the money and make up for the difference!"
Song Yao didn't take it. With a cold expression, she said, "Forget it. Go back."
"Cousin! It's my fault this time!" Sun Hao said anxiously. "But don't worry! I'll definitely make up for it!"
After Sun Hao finished speaking, he ignored Wu Xia behind him and rode his bicycle home to get the money.
Seeing this, Wu Xia shouted as if she had gone crazy, "Sun Hao! If you dare to go home to get the money today, I'll divorce you immediately!"
Sun Hao gritted his teeth and said impulsively, "So be it! Don't think that I'm afraid of you!"
Wu Xia was so angry that she also shouted, "So be it! I'll bring Little Hu back to my parents' house immediately! Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
In the next few days, Song Yao collected more than 3,600 catties of chestnuts.
Originally, she could have collected more, but Song Yao was worried that she to relatives benefiting from you. I spent some money on you, but you're still so calculative..."
"Shut up!" Sun Hao scolded fiercely. He took out ten yuan from his pocket and handed it to Song Yao. "I know this isn't enough! Just you wait. I'll go home immediately to get the money and make up for the difference!"

Wu Xia was so angry that she also shouted, "So be it! I'll bring Little Hu back to my parents' house immediately! Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
In the next few days, Song Yao collected more than 3,600 catties of chestnuts. Originally, she could have collected more, but Song Yao was worried that she wouldn't be able to fit too many trucks, so she could only promise them to accept another batch after this batch of chestnuts was collected.
After what happened last time, Song Yao heaved a sigh of relief after checking the chestnuts one by one. Gu Li handed the two hundred yuan to Song Yao. "This is the money your cousin returned to you."
Song Yao frowned. She still felt a headache when she thought of what happened that day. "Is Cousin still arguing with Wu Xia?"
At the mention of Wu Xia, Gu Li sighed. "Wu Xia ran away."
"Why?"
Song Yao was shocked! He ran away? Could it be because of the chestnuts she collected last time?
"Wu Xia looks like a good person. How can she cheat on your cousin behind his back?" Gu Li paused and continued, "That day, something happened to the chestnuts you collected. Your cousin went home to get money for you. Wu Xia said it herself. I originally thought that they were just angry words between husband and wife. I didn't expect your cousin to catch her sleeping with the village chief's son..."
Hearing this shocking news, Song Yao was stunned for a long time. "It's the son of the village chief? What happened after that?"
"What else could it be? Wu Xia ran away with the family's money that night!
She didn't even take the child away. What do you think happened?"
Song Yao was helpless when she heard that. "Poor Little Hu... How can she be like that?"
Gu Li sighed again. "Fortunately, your aunt is soft-hearted and didn't do anything to the child. However, your cousin is different. The child isn't his. He keeps shouting that he wants to send the child away. He doesn't work in the fields anymore and drinks all day. How do you think he can live like this?"
Seeing Gu Li's worried expression, Song Yao hurriedly said, "After Boss He finishes paying, let's go to Aunt's house to take a look."
As the mother and daughter were chatting, they heard a commotion outside the door. A sharp female voice shouted from outside, "Is it Song Yao's house?"
"Who is it?" Gu Li shouted. She pushed open the door and walked out. She saw a middle-aged woman with short hair in a cashmere coat standing outside. The woman's face darkened when she saw Gu Li. "You're Song Yao?"
However, she was thinking in her heart, What kind of taste does his son have? Not only did he like a divorcee who was raising a child, but he was almost as old as her.
Gu Li frowned. "Who are you?"
The woman pulled a long face. "Song Yao, right? Let's find a place to talk." "I'm Song Yao! What do you want to talk to me about?"
The door opened and Song Yao came out with a ponytail and a rough cloth coat.
Although she had been busy collecting chestnuts these few days and had become much more haggard without resting, she was not sloppy at all. Instead, she looked more pitiful.
The woman was even angrier when she saw Song Yao. Was this the Song Yao who had charmed his son into a divine marriage? Although she had gotten a divorce once, she was indeed good-looking. No wonder she could charm her silly son. She was really a vixen, siren!
"I'm Lin Feng's mother!" The woman stood in front of Song Yao and said bluntly.
She didn't expect Lin Feng's family to come knocking on her door so quickly.
Song Yao sneered. "If you have something to say, just say it.."

The woman rolled her eyes. "Logically speaking, I don't care to come to this lousy place, but my son likes you."
After she finished speaking, she sized up Song Yao with a disgusted gaze. "Song Yao, I admit that you're indeed quite beautiful. Men do like women like you, but your seduction skills can fool others but not me! I'm here today mainly to..."
"What are you saying? What did my daughter do to you? If you dare to spout nonsense again, believe it or not, I'll kick you out immediately!" Before the woman could finish speaking, Gu Li waved the dirty broom in her hand, scaring the woman into running around.
"It's so dirty! If it weren't for my son, I wouldn't have come to this lousy place!
What kind of people are you? Like mother, like daughter!"
She looked like a shrew and there were so many onlookers around. When Song Yao saw this, she quickly stopped Gu Li. "Mom! Don't be anxious! Let her finish speaking! "
"How can I not be anxious!" Gu Li was so angry that she panted heavily. Her daughter had been bullied to the door of her house. As her mother, how could she not protect her?
However, Song Yao looked calm and said calmly, "If you have something to sav- inst sav it- There's no need to heat around the hil.sh '

However, Song Yao looked calm and said calmly, "If you have something to say, just say it. There's no need to beat around the bush."
The woman patted the dust off her body and sneered. "Do you know that my son doesn't even go to work because of you? Song Yao! You vixen, you've really tricked my son! You're a divorcée. You can just marry a farmer! Why do you think of climbing up the social ladder all day long? Our Lin family is a scholarly family after all. How can we let a lowly woman like you, who hasn't attended university and even has a burden, enter our Lin family?"
"Who are you talking about? Say that again if you have the guts." Hearing this, Gu Li was even angrier. Her daughter was really tolerant. If it were her, she would have kicked her out long ago!
Song Yao sneered. It was exactly as she had guessed. "So you came to look for me today to criticize me?"
Lin Feng's mother pulled a long face. "Song Yao! I didn't want to come at first. I know my son's temper the best. I thought he just wanted to play outside. I
didn't think that a young man like him would suffer a loss! But I didn't expect Lin Feng to call your name in his dream yesterday. Not only that, but he also said that he wanted to marry you! What kind of bewitching potion did you give my son? A good child has become like this. Shouldn't I come to look for you?"
Song Yao sneered. "Auntie, it would be ridiculous if you came over because of
this. Lin Feng is the purchaser of the state-owned restaurant, right? I'm a businessman who supplies the state-owned restaurant. I haven't spoken to him many times. It's his business who he's sad about and who he wants to marry. You really don't have to look for me like this. I've said what I needed to say. What can I do if he doesn't listen?"
"Song Yao! Is this how you talk to your elders?"
Hearing this, Lin Feng's mother was even more unhappy. She wanted to tear Song Yao apart on the spot. "I originally thought that it wouldn't be easy for you to run a small business alone! But who asked you to seem like you want to do this the hard way? You're such a rude village woman with a burden. Not to mention my Lin Feng! It's already good enough that a man wants you!"
"Who did you say didn't want it?" At this moment, a low male voice came from outside the door. Song Yao turned around and realized that He Ren was standing at the door with his car keys.
He slowly walked to her side and said to Lin Feng's mother with a cold expression, "Woman, I advise you to watch your mouth! Song Yao is doing business alone and wants to raise her child. It's not something you can slander just because you want to."
"You're right! Who said that no one wants my daughter? Who said that my grandson is a burden?!" Gu Li couldn't hold it in anymore. She let go of Song Yao's hand, picked up the broom, and hit Lin Feng's mother.
Lin Feng's mother was beaten until she fled. As she dodged, she shouted, "I'm not wrong! Song Yao is a divorced woman! She doesn't have a diploma or a job. Who can she support with such a small business? If it weren't for my son, she would have gone asking for food long ago!"
"I don't need your son's charity! Get lost as far as you can!" Song Yao shouted at the top of her lungs.
She did not lack the business of the state-owned restaurant. If she really wanted to make money, selling the chestnuts to Boss He was the big business. Moreover, there was more than one state-owned restaurant in the entire Sangqiu County.. What was so great about it?

Chapter 65: Recommendation Letter
Thank you readers!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lin Feng's mother gritted her teeth in anger!
Originally, she came over today to open gambit, and give Song Yao a few hundred yuan to leave Lin Feng.
After all, the Lin family was considered a scholarly family. Although Lin Feng's studies were not good and he did not get into university, there were many women in the entire Sangqiu County who wanted to marry her son.
She had even seen a pregnant woman who wanted to marry into the Lin family. She, Chen Yan, had not relented, let alone a second-hand woman like Song Yao who had been divorced and even had a son.
But she didn't expect Song Yao to look down on Lin Feng! This was a serious humiliation to her dignity!
"Who do you think you are?"
Song Yao sneered and didn't intend to hold it in anymore. "Don't say that I don't like Lin Feng at all. Even if I do, it's not your place to humiliate me! I also hope that you can take good care of your son when you get home! Don't let him show mercy and ruin your reputation!" "Shut up! Little b*tch! See if I don't tear your mouth apart today!" Chen Lin Feng's mother gritted her teeth in anger!

"Shut up! Little b*tch! See if I don't tear your mouth apart today!" Chen Yan was even angrier when she heard this. She couldn't care less about her usual aloof behavior and wanted to hit Song Yao like a shrew.
Song Yao was not afraid of her and pushed her away.
"Since you've come looking for me, I'll talk to you nicely! I'm supplying the state-owned restaurant, but it's always been your son who has been pestering me! If you don't believe me, you can go home and ask! Anyway, I'm not doing the supply business anymore. I'll only earn dozens of yuan a day even if I work hard! It's better to collect chestnuts!"
"Bullsh*t!" Chen Yan put her hands on her hips and said angrily.
Her son had good looks and a family background. If not for Song Yao's deliberate seduction, why would her son like a woman like Song Yao?
Chen Yan firmly believed that it was all thanks to her son that Song Yao could get to the state-owned restaurant. If not for her Lin Feng, where
would bong Yao lina sucn a goou JODS
Dozens of yuan a day was already considered too little. What else could she, Song Yao, do as a country bumpkin without a diploma?
Chen Yan was about to point at Song Yao and scold her for being shameless when she was interrupted by a male voice. Chen Yan turned around and saw Lin Feng standing behind her with a dark expression.
"Mom? Why are you here?"
With her son standing in front of her, Chen Yan couldn't stand it anymore. Before she went out, she had personally promised her son that she would agree to this marriage. Chen Yan was extremely flustered. She grabbed Lin Feng's hand and asked, "Son, when did you come?
Lin Feng didn't say anything, but his expression was extremely ugly as he stared at Chen Yan.
Song Yao didn't have that kind of intention towards him to begin with. If his mother continued to stir up trouble, the situation would only worsen!
At the thought of this, Lin Feng couldn't be bothered to talk to Chen Yan. He took the initiative to walk up to Song Yao and said, "Yao! I'm sorry! I'm late! Don't take it to heart what my mother told you previously! I.. '
"Enough!"
Song Yao shook Lin Feng off. "I've already told you what I should and shouldn't say. I won't deliver goods to your restaurant anymore! That's all ! "
As soon as she finished speaking, Song Yao closed the courtyard door, not wanting to say anything more to the mother and son.
Gu Li, who was at the side, was even angrier. "She's that Merchant Lin's mother? I was wondering who it was. He looks like a good young man. How could he have such a mother?"
Gu Li sighed. She had heard from Xiao that Merchant Lin from the state-run restaurant seemed to have that kind of feelings for Song Yao. At that time, she wanted to see Merchant Lin, but she did not expect him to be such a person!
She was really glad that Song Yao didn't like Lin Feng! Otherwise, if they were really together, Lin Feng's Mom alone would be enough for her to worry about!
Gu Li was so angry that she said, "Who does she think she is? Who gives my daughter the right to say anything?"
Gu Li returned to the house and continued to tidy up the room. Only Song Yao and He Ren were left in the garden.
Song Yao said awkwardly, "I'm sorry, Boss He. I've made a fool of myself."
He Ren smiled. "It's fine. Other than collecting chestnuts today, I have more important things to do."
After he finished speaking, he took out a recommendation letter from his pocket and handed it to Song Yao. "Didn't you say last time that you wanted to continue returning to school to take the college entrance examination? This is the recommendation letter that my friend from the county government wrote to your county high school. I've discussed it with their principal and they can let you return to school to continue studying. However, the prerequisite is that you have to go to a university in Shangqiu City to take an exam and reach the score they want."
"Boss He... you..."
Song Yao was at a loss. At that time, she had only casually mentioned it m Iront 01 Boss He.. sne ala not expect He Ken to really Introauce ner to the school!
