Chapter 50: Chapter 50 The Name She Remembers Even When Burned to Ashes

The line from just a moment ago where she said the shop was her call, Sun Lanlan thought Lin Chuxia was just saying it to reassure her, but it turns out Lin Chuxia is the actual owner of the Bun Shop.

Now thinking about it, the Bun Shop is called Qin’s Steamed Bun Shop, isn’t Lin Chuxia’s man’s surname Qin?

"Chuxia, you’ve really done well for yourself, how can you be so capable?"

Sun Lanlan was so impressed she wanted to spin her sister in circles.

She had heard awhile back that Lin Chuxia’s man had already gone to work out of town, and she was worried, feeling that the newly-wed sister-in-law at home alone seemed so pitiable.

She thought about visiting Qin Family Village but didn’t want to trouble her sister, so when she heard that Lin Chuxia worked at the Bun Shop, she immediately came to see her.

Who would have thought her sister had become so successful, even becoming the boss.

"Right, I heard recently Lin Jiayi has been pushing Li Guangyuan to find some business to do, she isn’t stimulated by watching you do business, is she?"

Daqing Mountain Village is adjacent to Xiaoqingshan Village, and with a keen ear for gossip, Sun Lanlan had heard a fair bit about Lin Jiayi.

Lin Chuxia thought to herself, Lin Jiayi wanting to do business wasn’t from being provoked by her, but rather she was still dreaming of being a rich wife.

She wonders if Li Guangyuan could be persuaded by Lin Jiayi, and she was quite looking forward to it.

Shaking her head, "My family doesn’t know I do business, and I’m not planning on letting them know."

Sun Lanlan, thinking of the Lin Family’s attitude towards Lin Chuxia, also felt it’s better not to let them know, "That’s fine, I’ll tell my third brother to keep his mouth shut tight."

"By the way, Chuxia, guess how Lin Jiayi has been getting along in the Li Family lately, I wonder if she regrets swapping the marriage arrangement with you."

Sun Lanlan came just to gossip with her sister; the sudden marriage swap that Lin Jiayi did with her sister had really disgusted her, so she had been indirectly inquiring about Lin Jiayi’s situation, and oh boy, what she found out, not a single good word to say.

Lin Chuxia rarely reveals such a youthful spirit in front of her close friend, her eyes shining with the thrill of gossiping, "What’s the situation? Tell me quickly."

Sun Lanlan shared the story of Lin Jiayi’s younger sisters-in-law stealing her dowry, and also how she claimed she would never work the fields but ended up working beside Li Guangyuan obediently.

Lin Chuxia found it amusing. Li Guangyuan managed to earn a reputation as an honest and simple man, but he’s just too nice, offending no one, and no one could afford to offend him.

In a crisis, don’t expect him to stand up for you, he’ll just try to smooth things over for both sides, often leaning towards his mother’s side.

And those two sisters-in-law of hers are also no easy targets.

When the Li Family offered eight chi of fabric as a dowry, she found it suspicious.

The Li Family is not known for their generosity; eight chi of fabric is too much for one dress and not enough for two, but the two daughters of the Li Family are slim, just enough for two new dresses each.

She had warned Lin Jiayi back then, thinking she wasn’t being kind, now let Lin Jiayi see the true face of the Li Family for herself.

Old Mrs. Li sides with her own, wishing she could milk her daughter-in-law dry, not stopping until the last drop of blood is squeezed out.
