Chapter 596: Indecisive
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Li Yan’s identity was different now, so there were many things that she didn’t need to do herself.
She had always wanted to hire a servant to clean the house every day, wash clothes, and cook.
Unfortunately, she couldn’t use her money openly, so she could only hope that Pei Xuanxin would hire a servant.
Pei Xuanxin didn’t have much money to begin with. Although he had already been appointed an official, the salary wouldn’t be paid until he took office.
He had some silver in his hand now, but it was a congratulatory gift from some rich businessmen.
Pei Xuanxin had a tight grip on this money.
Therefore, when Li Yan suggested hiring servants, Pei Xuanxin rejected her.
When Li Yan saw her sister, she naturally wanted to order her around.
In order to eat her fill and follow her sister and brother-in-law to the capital, Li Qin naturally did her job obediently.
Ever since Li Xiaoran and her family left the Li family, Li Qin had been forced to learn to do many things.
Now, Li Qin could wash clothes, wash dishes, and even cook.
The food didn’t taste as good as those chefs’, but it was still better than Li Yan’s own cooking.
Therefore, Li Qin moved into Pei Xuanxin’s house.
When Pei Xuanxin saw Li Qin appear at his house, he only asked briefly and didn’t say anything else.
Li Yan was originally a little worried that Pei Xuanxin wanted her to send her sister away.
Fortunately, Pei Xuanxin wasn’t focused on this matter at all, so he didn’t say anything and let Li Qin stay.
Although Pei Xuanxin wanted to divorce his wife, he had concerns, so he didn’t dare to do so.
He had no choice but to make plans and wait for the right time.
Luo Cheng naturally knew what was going on with Pei Xuanxin.
Seeing that Pei Xuanxin wasn’t making any moves, Luo Cheng only smiled without saying anything.
Previously, Luo Cheng really treated Pei Xuanxin as his love rival.
After all, according to Li Yan, Li Xiaoran was originally going to marry Pei Xuanxin.
From the looks of it, Pei Xuanxin wasn’t that impressive. Li Xiaoran definitely wouldn’t fancy someone like him.
Why didn’t he deal with this matter quickly?
If not now, when would he deal with it?
When Li Yan had more and more evidence against him?
Or would he wait until Li Yan caused him more trouble?
To be honest, Luo Cheng really looked down on Pei Xuanxin.
If it were him, he wouldn’t be so indecisive.
Of course, if it had been him, he wouldn’t have gotten to where he was today and been led by the nose by a woman.
After putting Pei Xuanxin’s matter aside, Luo Cheng instructed Luo Ziyang to pick up a few people.
Three days later, a nanny, a scholar with talent, and Fan Dechang, who had been abandoned by Luo Cheng in the capital to train chefs, came to Hele Village.
When he saw Luo Cheng again, Fan Dechang’s eyes turned red!
“Your Highness, you can’t abandon me in the capital! After you left, I wasn’t able to continue my training class in the capital!”
Luo Cheng frowned when he heard Fan Dechang’s words.
“What exactly is going on? Your culinary training class didn’t get in anyone else’s way. Why couldn’t you continue?”
Fan Dechang sighed and told him what had happened in the capital recently.
In the past, many people came to learn culinary skills, but ever since Luo Cheng left, fewer and fewer people came to learn culinary skills.
The people who had originally signed the agreement had somehow obtained a large sum of money. They would rather compensate for the breach of contract than continue learning.
At first, Fan Dechang didn’t care. Later, as more and more people left, Fan Dechang realized that something was wrong.
Later on, I asked a child I had a good relationship with. The other party secretly told me that someone had given everyone money and forced them to quit.
If they didn’t quit, their families would be beaten up and harmed.
They had no other choice. In order to survive, they could only quit.
After Fan Dechang found out about this, he didn’t sleep for the entire night. After pondering for a long time, he found Luo Cheng’s person in charge in the capital and expressed that he wanted to come to Sichuan.
The other party happened to have something to send to Sichuan, so he arranged for Fan Dechang to come to Hele Village with two other people.
Although Luo Cheng knew that Fan Dechang was coming, he didn’t know that Fan Dechang had come to Sichuan for this reason.
Fan Dechang voiced his thoughts, “Your Highness, I don’t think it’s appropriate to open any more classes in the capital. The losses outweigh the gains. It’s better to come to Sichuan to teach to give more children a chance to change their lives!”
Luo Cheng thought of the food festival that was going to be held and the culinary competition, so he simply said to Fan Dechang, “Then why don’t you teach in the village?! Teach the children in the village how to cook and see if there are any talented seedlings. I’ll arrange for you to do other things later! Don’t worry, I won’t let you be idle. You’ll become busy later on!” Fan Dechang nodded when he heard Luo Cheng’s words.
As long as he wasn’t left in the capital, any arrangement was fine.
After settling things here, Luo Cheng called Li Xiaoran and brought the nanny to the Li family’s house.
When the villagers saw this, they immediately realized that there was something to watch, so they followed.
Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran didn’t mind the villagers following them. There was nothing shady they couldn’t let others see anyway.
After arriving at the Li family’s house, Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran frowned when they smelled the stench in the courtyard.
Luo Cheng glanced at Zi Zheng, who immediately knocked on the door and called out the Li family.
After not seeing them for a while, Sr. Li and Madam Li looked much older.
Seeing that it was Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran, Sr. Li and Madam Li were shocked. They didn’t know if it was a good or bad thing that these two people had come looking for them.
When Li Xiaoran saw the two of them, she sighed.
Luo Cheng glanced at the two elders and asked, ‘Where did Eldest Uncle and Second Uncle go?”
Sr. Li looked at Luo Cheng with a complicated expression.
To be honest, after knowing that Luo Cheng was the Seventh Prince, Sr. Li regretted it.
Back then, if he hadn’t been greedy for that tiger bone, would everything have been different today?
Sr. Li said after a while, “I don’t know where they went!”
Luo Cheng smiled and said, “Looks like they didn’t do what I asked back then..
Eldest Uncle and Second Uncle didn’t take good care of you two!”
