Back to the 70s: My Childhood Sweetheart Spoils Me Rotten-Chapter 782 - 784: The Son-in-Law’s Request

Looking at the newly issued document, from Cai Ming to Gong Ruini, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Cao Li saw their nervous expressions and chuckled, "Don’t worry, not everyone here will give face to the Old Wei Family."

"There’s no choice, we are just ordinary folks," Cai Ming carefully stored away the document.

"Still claiming to be an ordinary person?" Cao Li looked at Cai Ming, who was feigning fear, and didn’t believe it for a second.

If he were truly harmless, how could he run such a successful business?

"Even ordinary people need not worry. As long as it’s a legal investment, it is protected." Some things the Wang Yuzhe brothers wouldn’t tell Cao Li, but Cao Na would.

Cao Li and her husband wouldn’t meddle in the internal affairs of the Wang Family, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t concerned. Given their good relationship with the Wang Yuzhe brothers, they naturally hope Wang Yuzhe can take the lead.

After learning that Wang Yuzhe and Zhao Xuran were cooperating, Cao Li, from any angle, would certainly support Zhao Xuran well.

Cao Li thought further ahead about her sister getting closer to Zhao Guangran, and with Zhao Guangran quite fond of her sister, if they ended up together, given Zhao Gang and his wife’s temperament, they might agree to Zhao Guangran marrying into their family.

Although this seemed a bit far-fetched, Cao Li still took it into consideration.

"Then we’ll trouble Director Cao." Cai Ming caught the underlying meaning in Cao Li’s words and felt quite pleased.

"I’ll have the manager frequently contact you, Director Cao." Cai Ming’s focus was in the North, although he would be traveling often to the South in the future, the focus wasn’t there.

Especially since the factory was invested under the name of Hong Kong funds, it had to have people coming from Hong Kong, like having high-level positions held by them. This doesn’t only fool people but also suppresses some small-time villains. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Now with Cao Li watching over things, Cai Ming felt reassured.

"Don’t worry." Cao Li also looked forward to producing more results to solidify her position.

With the investment promotion underway and turning out well, countless people were envious and finding ways to get involved.

Cao Li didn’t want to be sidelined before reaping the fruits of victory, so she needed to achieve better results to show her competence alongside her connections.

Right now, Gong Ruini was busy helping Cao Na arrange her room, unaware that her uncle had formed an alliance with Cao Li.

"I still think we should plant fruit trees." Gong Ruini, looking at the empty courtyard, first thought of fruit trees.

"I think so too. Let’s plant some lychees and grapes."

"Fruit trees are great." Cao Na had observed the neighbors’ trees, mostly leafy ones, which she wasn’t fond of.

If you’re planting trees, why not plant fruit trees? It saves on buying fruit.

Wang Yufan was busy moving the items bought with Cao Na inside, overhearing their discussion, leaving him speechless.

Clearly, they weren’t short on money, yet talking about such mundane things, "Why dig a fish pond if not for edible fish?"

"And isn’t it better to focus on lotus flowers?" Though Wang Yufan was straightforward, he’d seen many courtyards.

"And plant some flowers; they look beautiful."

"That’s what a courtyard should be."

"We’re planting flowers." Cao Na didn’t get why people who knew nothing were giving so many opinions.

"But fruit trees are definitely good. Ni Zi’s family plants many, and you can make wine from grapes and even some apple cider." Cao Na thought of Gong Ruini’s large courtyard with envy.

Ah, no way, planting fruit trees in a prime central Beijing courtyard? Wang Yufan gave a thumbs up to Gong Ruini in admiration.

"If you spread this, people will be envious."

Envy? Gong Ruini really didn’t worry about others’ envy, "Let them envy. We’ve worked hard, or maybe you should come with us to the Northeast in a few days to see what hardships we endure in the rural areas."

Ah, go to the Northeastern Rural areas? Wang Yufan shrank back, "I’ll get busy now."

Taking a few steps, "Don’t tell my brother, or he’ll send me to the Northeast."

That’s a good idea, Gong Ruini thought, letting this young master experience the Northeast would at least stop his constant complaints of hardship during vacation.

His so-called hardships wouldn’t count in Gong Ruini’s eyes, considering the heavy labor they endured in the Northeast.

"Rest assured, I won’t say anything." Zhao Xuran spoke up before Gong Ruini could think of anything mischievous.

"Good, good." If it were Zhao Guangran, even with Gong Ruini’s assurance, Wang Yufan wouldn’t believe it, as those two were notorious for scaring people.

But Zhao Xuran was different; he wouldn’t do such a thing and would admit to what he says.

Missing such a good chance to educate Wang Yufan, Gong Ruini felt a bit unhappy.

"Let him go to the Northeast and mess up things." Zhao Xuran wouldn’t let Wang Yufan follow them to the Northeast; going to Beijing was out of the question.

Seeing Wang Yufan loitering around every day here was already irking him.

Mess up, exactly, with him being such a target, if he went to the Northeast or even Beijing, he’d attract a lot of attention.

If he got into trouble testing the waters for the Wei Family, Gong Ruini couldn’t bear the responsibility, "Yes, yes, he can’t go to Beijing."

Gong Ruini imagined the worst-case scenario, while Zhao Xuran knew she was over-thinking, but it was exactly what he wanted.

"Remember to talk to Guangran about it." Gong Ruini agreed, but wasn’t sure if Zhao Guangran would invite this friend to Beijing.

There’s no way Zhao Guangran would invite him, "He wouldn’t be foolish to invite someone who might become a rival to Beijing."

Though Wang Yufan showed no interest in Cao Na, Zhao Guangran wouldn’t take the risk, "Nana mentioned a while ago that his family thinks well of Wang Yufan."

Because of this, he wouldn’t invite him to Beijing, causing Zhao Xuran to want to laugh at times over how childishly his brother thought.

But sometimes, such misunderstandings are necessary to accomplish his goals.

"The Cao Family might need a son-in-law who would move in." Zhao Xuran suddenly remembered what Cao Li mentioned earlier, making him a bit uneasy.

Wait, could it be true? Cao Na marrying into someone else’s home? Gong Ruini recalled Cao Na joking about it but never thought it possible.

This could be a genuine issue, how could it be handled?

Would Zhao Guangran agree?

Forget about Zhao Guangran, would Zhao Gang and his wife agree?

Could it be the Cao Family thought Zhao Gang and his wife were easygoing?

Even if Zhao Gang and his wife agreed, would the Cao Family’s plotting be acceptable?
