Chapter 719: Brothers Talk Heart-to-Heart
Reflecting on the past, Zhang Lijuan suddenly felt that her decision back then was correct. She was fortunate to have her mother give her advice. Otherwise, not to mention Si Chen wouldn’t have married her, her reputation would have been ruined, and she probably wouldn’t have enjoyed any good days.
Si Xiaohui serves as the perfect example. When her affection for Gu Hongwei failed to bear fruit, she rashly settled for a man like Song Yu and ended up being as despised as a rat crossing the street, making everyone dislike her.
Now she herself has two adorable sons and a husband who loves her. Her life is indeed very blissful. People in the village all admire her. To outsiders, her life seems very comfortable, even more comfortable actually. Every time she went back, Chen Jinlan bragged that it was all thanks to her wit; otherwise, her family wouldn’t be enjoying the good days they have now.
Just as she snapped out of her thoughts, she heard Si Chen say, "The village head now plans to plant orange trees. Anyone who wants to invest can invest. Yaoyao and I have invested on your behalf. If the village head’s funds are insufficient, we’ll cover the difference, but the shares are yours."
Si Boyi was stunned, never expecting Si Chen would actually use his money to help with his investment. "Big brother, we can cover the investment ourselves. Our business in the city has been good these past few years. Although we used some to buy a house in the city, we still have a lot left over. We can’t let you and sister-in-law pay."
Zhang Lijuan also quickly added, "Yes, big brother. We can’t let you and sister-in-law cover the costs. You’ve already done so much for our family. If it weren’t for your help, Boyi and I would never have been able to buy a house in the city."
They still remember the kindness Si Chen and Tong Yao have shown them as a couple. Without Tong Yao and Si Chen, their family would still be at the mercy of others even if they were able to set up a small street stall.
Although they could also open a shop, getting a location near the school’s entrance is not easy. This wasn’t something everyone could achieve.
