After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady-Chapter 528: Encountering Zhao Lianmai for the 240th time. _2

Zhao Lianmai replied calmly.

"Good, good, good, your move can attack and defend."

Xu Musen rubbed his temples, "You’re invincible."

"But she must be missing you, she usually waits alone in the milk tea shop from morning until it’s dark. With this separation for so long, I don’t even know if someone is missing her..."

As a firm supporter of "Nuannuan and Musen," Zhao Lianmai spoke in a tone that was a bit sarcastic, fully supporting her own boss’s wife.

Xu Musen glanced over at Yao Mingyue in the distance.

He looked away and smiled, looking at the offerings for the gravesite visit. Dumplings were normal, but this was the first time he’d seen deep-fried dough sticks placed there.

Zhao Lianmai noticed Xu Musen’s gaze and began to speak slowly, "In the past, when we were poor, my grandparents always wanted to have a taste of deep-fried dough sticks, but they never did until the day they died."

Xu Musen listened quietly. As a province rich in grain, but those ancient famines were the most severe. When families were poor, seven or eight children would be born, and it wasn’t uncommon for half to starve to death.

"The sadness of that era... In today’s society, it’s harder to go hungry. They would be very comforted if they knew."

Xu Musen whispered soothingly.

No matter what the current social structure is, the vast majority of ordinary people are indeed less likely to go hungry.

In this regard, looking at the entire world, it’s a very great and unbelievable achievement.

Zhao Lianmai also nodded, looking at Xu Musen; her delicate cheeks finally softened a bit, "I want to thank you, you’ve improved my family’s life by quite a bit."

"Now you know to cozy up to the boss?"

Xu Musen laughed, it wasn’t often he got to see her smile.

Sure enough, Zhao Lianmai returned to her stern expression, "Cozying up to you isn’t as good as cozying up to Nuannuan, anyway, you’ll end up listening to her in the end."

Xu Musen chuckled touching his chin, "I think you have a bit of a dark humor, telling jokes with such a straight face."

Zhao Lianmai didn’t respond to him.

Xu Musen was also used to it, "How’s your aunt feeling now?"

"Much better, she’s now resting at home."

As Zhao Lianmai spoke, she pursed her lips slightly and continued, "My mom found out about my job, and she’s really grateful to you."

The wages she had earned working at the school for the past half year were more than the sum of several years of part-time jobs.

The family could finally breathe easier. Her mother could finally go to see a doctor, her sister could continue her schooling, and they could finally have full meals three times a day.

"All that you have is deserved, your capability will shine wherever you go in the future."

Xu Musen replied. Although Zhao Lianmai usually didn’t show much respect, her work was flawless. He might not have been able to expand the business without worrying if Zhao Lianmai hadn’t been working as hard as several people by herself.

In starting a business, talent is the most important.

Zhao Lianmai shook her head.

"We should judge by results, not intentions. The money I’ve earned working for you has made you a benefactor to my family."

"Then can you be a little nicer to your benefactor from now on?"

"I’ll try."

"Alright then."

Xu Musen couldn’t help but laugh, alright then, he had no expectations of her becoming more welcoming in the future.

"I should head back now."

"Hmm."

Zhao Lianmai watched his retreating figure, and after a moment, she burned the last of the paper money in her hand and began to pack up to go down the mountain.

Liu Rushuang went to find the cemetery’s manager, hoping to plant a sunflower beside the grave in the future and have someone look after it.

She started to pack up her things, preparing to leave as well.

Driving on the road.

She hadn’t gone far.

Suddenly, Xu Musen noticed a familiar figure along the snowy roadside.

Wearing an old down jacket, with a duck billed cap on her head, the basket she carried hung from her arm as she walked through the deep snow with difficulty.

The mountain road stretched for two or three kilometers, and the snow had not melted; her shoes seemed soaked with snow water, which must have been uncomfortable in this weather.

Yet she was hiking up the mountain alone and she was a girl...

Xu Musen sighed silently.

"Is that... your little employee?"

Yao Mingyue also saw her; any girl who appeared around Xu Musen was always immediately noted.

"Xiao Sen, is she your friend?"

Liu Rushuang also asked.

"Yes, we’re from the same university, and you could say she’s a colleague of mine."

Xu Musen spoke to introduce her.

"This child, why is she going up the mountain alone in such heavy snow..." As a mother, Liu Rushuang inevitably felt distressed at this sight.

Xu Musen drove directly to her side and rolled down the window.

"Zhao Lianmai!"

Xu Musen called out, and Zhao Lianmai turned her head to meet his eyes.

This Zhao Lianmai, it’s just this about her, she doesn’t want to trouble others at all, not even willing to take advantage of a lift, even though she has come across acquaintances, she’s reluctant to even mention hitching a ride.

"Get in."

Xu Musen said.

Zhao Lianmai first looked up at him, and also saw Yao Mingyue and Liu Rushuang in the back seat of the car.

"Child, get in, we can go down the mountain together."

Liu Rushuang offered a smile and spoke to her.

Zhao Lianmai looked at the open car window they were offering, knowing if she didn’t go over, they would carry on sitting in the cold wind, so she walked over.

Once in the car, Zhao Lianmai looked at Yao Mingyue in the car and the elegant and gentle woman beside her, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"Young lady, I am Ming Yue’s mother. I’ve heard you and Xiao Sen are good friends from the same university?"

Liu Rushuang said with a light laugh, extending her hand.

Zhao Lianmai gazed at Liu Rushuang, then at Yao Mingyue. Mother and daughter... why was there such a difference in their presence?

"Auntie, hello, my name is Zhao Lianmai, I work with him at the school," Zhao Lianmai also immediately reached out her hand to shake Liu Rushuang’s in a polite manner.

"Then that’s quite a fate. Your hands are frozen; here, warm your hands with this hand warmer first,"

Liu Rushuang said gently, first rubbing Zhao Lianmai’s hands with her own to warm them.

Then she asked Yao Mingyue to fetch the hand warmer from the car.

Zhao Lianmai looked at Liu Rushuang, then down at her hands being held, and for some reason... warmth surged in her heart.

This feeling of being cared for by an elder.

"Here you go."

By then, Yao Mingyue had brought over the hand warmer and placed it in her hands.

Zhao Lianmai’s eyes moved between the mother and daughter, which seemed to alter her perspective on Yao Mingyue somewhat.

"Thank you."

Zhao Lianmai said softly, holding the hand warmer in her hands.

Along the way, Liu Rushuang chatted merrily about various topics. Although Zhao Lianmai spoke little, she responded to every one of Liu Rushuang’s inquiries.

Yao Mingyue didn’t speak, but she didn’t feel much hostility towards Zhao Lianmai. A woman’s sixth sense told her.

This person likely won’t become her rival in love.

The vehicle reached the foot of the mountain, and there was a village not far away.

"This is fine here."

Zhao Lianmai spoke.

"I’ll drive you straight home."

Xu Musen figured, since he was giving a ride, he might as well drive her all the way to her doorstep.

"No need, here is fine."

Zhao Lianmai’s eyes imperceptibly quivered.

"Let’s stop here then."

Liu Rushuang also joined in, smiling as she patted Zhao Lianmai’s head, "We don’t live too far from here, you are welcome to come visit Ming Yue and Musen for fun."

Zhao Lianmai nodded in response, intending to leave the hand warmer behind, but Liu Rushuang smiled and said, "Keep it and use it for now, you can return it to them later."

"Okay."

This time, Zhao Lianmai didn’t refuse, she got out of the car, and gave them a slight bow, "Thank you."

"Go on, give my regards to your aunt," Xu Musen said.

Zhao Lianmai nodded and walked away.

Xu Musen watched her head towards the village. This was the outskirts of Zheng City, and the village consisted mostly of old single-story houses.

Compared to Zheng City with its skyscrapers a few kilometers away, this place seemed forgotten.

Xu Musen sighed and drove away.
