On the other side, Lu Zhi worked for a while after delivering the four little ones, but he still didn't see Li Tannian. Later, when he asked someone, he found out that Li Tannian had gone to the county early.
Remembering that she had specially dressed up today, Lu Zhi's eyebrows suddenly twisted into knots.
Lin Yueniang and Zhao Susu looked at each other, both a little surprised.
"Sanlang, didn't Sister Nian tell you about this? Yesterday afternoon, the county magistrate's wife and her son sent a message. That was so serious that I even specifically mentioned it to Zhao Cheng when I got back."
Before Zhao Susu could finish speaking, Lu Zhiren had already left.
Lin Yueniang winked at Zhao Susu and couldn't help but sigh: "Tieqiu Niang, please stop talking. Didn't you see that Sanlang's face was so ugly? I think Sister Nian probably didn't tell her!"
Zhao Susu opened her mouth in shock, thinking that she couldn't, because she didn't say anything about such an important thing.
Lin Yueniang looked outside and let out a long sigh, feeling unspeakably annoyed in her heart.
At this time, the flower appreciation banquet at the county back office had officially begun. Yuan Ruolan invited a total of twenty people, most of whom were about the same age as Li Tannian, and a few of whom were wives of wealthy businessmen in the city.
Yuan Ruolan briefly introduced the guests to Li Tannian. Everyone respected Mrs. Yuan. At this moment, seeing how polite she was to Li Tannian, they couldn't help but look at Li Tannian angrily.
Luo Jiaojiao thought that she was one of the top rich girls in Qinghe County. She would never lack anything she wanted, but Yuan Ruolan never treated her like this.
Looking at Li Tannian dressed in red, she secretly cursed a country bumpkin in her heart. At this moment, Yuan Ruolan had already taken Li Tannian to enjoy the flowers.
Luo Jiaojiao's eyes paused on the two pots of flowers in the distance, and she immediately winked at her two companions.
"Jiaojiao, do we really want to do this?" One of the thinner ones said, and the other round-faced girl also hesitated.
Who can't tell that Mrs. Yuan is interested in Li Tannian? It would not be good if they really did such a thing at Mrs. Yuan's banquet.
What's more, Han Leng and Mo Lan brought it back from Qingzhou on a special trip. It looked extremely expensive, and they were a little afraid to buy it.
Luo Jiaojiao's face turned stern, she put her hands on her waist and said, "Why, you are not willing? Do you still want to earn a living from my Luo family?"
These words stunned the two girls. Who didn't know that in Qinghe County today, the Wu family is only the richest on the surface. In fact, the Luo family is really in charge of the lifeblood of Qinghe County.
If they really offended Luo Jiaojiao because of this, it would be equivalent to offending the Luo family. At that time, their own business would also be affected.
Thinking of this, the two of them gritted their teeth and leaned towards Li Tannian silently.
Orchids generally bloom in spring, so the cold orchids and black orchids that bloom in this season have become rare.
Yuan Ruolan had someone bring out several pots of rare orchids early on, and watered them specially. The crystal water drops hanging on the emerald green flowers had an indescribable charm.
Women all love flowers, so a group of young girls boldly moved forward. Seeing that Yuan Ruolan had no intention of stopping them, they became bolder and moved closer to the front.
Suddenly, the small flower stand became extremely crowded.
"But what do you like? I'll give it to you." As she spoke, Yuan Ruolan pointed at one of the best-looking pots of cold orchids, "How about that pot? If you like it, I'll give it to you."
you."
Li Tannian was about to reply when she suddenly felt someone push her hard behind her. She couldn't stabilize her body and threw herself towards the cold orchid on the flower stand.
Suddenly, there was a sound of inhalation from the surroundings, and everyone held their breath and did not dare to look any further!
These are not just simple flowers, they are Mrs. Yuan's favorites. If this little lady falls, Mrs. Yuan's flowers will probably be broken.
"Ms. Li!" Yuan Ruolan was also startled, but not because of her flowers, but because she was worried about Li Tannian.
Li Tannian bumped into the flower stand just as they imagined. However, she was extremely agile and managed to catch a pot of cold orchids that fell down in time.
The expected messy scene was not seen, and there was another round of applause and applause from the surroundings.
"This little lady is quite powerful. She is as agile as a county official!"
"Really? I didn't dare to look just now. If I had known, I should have opened my eyes wide."
"That's such a pity, I can see it clearly!"
At one end of the corridor, Wu Qi saw this scene as soon as he arrived. Earlier, he wanted to take a look at her from a distance and leave. He didn't want her to know his existence at all.
But he never thought that these simple-looking little girls would go so far to bully others. He could clearly see that if someone hadn't exerted force behind her, she wouldn't have fallen down at all.
Seeing this situation, how could he dare to leave?
There are a lot of wealthy people in this county who look up to others and look down on others. Last time, he took her to see her in the chamber of commerce. Now, he didn't want others to treat her like this again.
Not for other delusions, but because she had saved his life, he should stand up and protect her.
"Sir, how about we go over and say hello to Mrs. Li?" Yuanyang said tentatively.
Her young master has never been interested in these banquets. She was originally wondering why her master came here, but now she thinks about it, it must be because of Lady Li.
"Yes." Wu Qi responded lightly and walked towards Li Tannian.
At this moment, Li Tannian, who was at the flower stand, had already placed Hanlan on the flower stand. She slowly breathed a sigh of relief and turned around.
Just now, she felt clearly that there was a push behind her. If her guess was correct, someone must be harming her!
Looking around the crowd, Li Tannian found Luo Jiaojiao, who looked angry and unwilling, and her two companions who were too guilty to raise their heads!
For a moment, Li Tannian had some concerns in his mind.
Except for Luo Jiaojiao, no one present had any grudge against him. Li Tannian could not imagine that anyone else would target her.
After she warned Luo Jiaojiao before, she never thought of embarrassing her again, but she didn't expect that she would be so unwilling to let him go.
"Ms. Li, are you okay?" Yuan Ruolan couldn't help but ask when Li Tannian didn't speak.
Li Tannian shook his head and was thinking about how to respond to Luo Jiaojiao when he heard a familiar voice: "Why did you push her?"
The person who came was dressed in plain clothes and wearing a curtain hat. Isn't it the young lady from the Wu family?
The two people's eyes met, and Li Tannian smiled at him and said from a doctor's point of view: "You really should go out and walk around."
All in all, she hadn't seen her partner for a long time. If he didn't come out again, maybe she would have to make suggestions to Yuanyang and let her master go out and walk around and exercise.
