259: Revised: Chapter 259 The Eye of the 8 Trigrams 259: Revised: Chapter 259 The Eye of the 8 Trigrams Wu Xiaoyu responded, “Yeah!

Selling so much is already quite good!

After all, this mushroom sauce is just a condiment, it’s not possible to eat too much!”

Wang Aifeng heard the father and son explain and finally accepted the fact.

Even though it’s only seventy or eighty boxes, it can still make a lot of money.

People shouldn’t be too greedy!

After lunch and a bit of rest, Wu Youliang was about to go to the factory.

Just as he stepped out of the main room, he was stopped by Wu Xiaoyu.

“Dad, you should rest at home this afternoon!

I’ll go over and check on things, and I’ll inspect the equipment while I’m at it!” Wu Xiaoyu said.

Wu Youliang felt he should go too since his son mentioned inspecting the production equipment.

It would be good to help out a bit.

But Wu Xiaoyu insisted that he stay home and rest.

Seeing his son’s concern, Wu Youliang couldn’t refuse any longer and handed him the keys.

Wu Xiaoyu took the keys and went to the sauce factory.

He first turned off the main power switch and then got the equipment manuals to start inspecting some key lines.

He was busy when Li Yujia pushed the door open and entered.

She saw him diligently checking the packaging equipment and couldn’t help but laugh, “Brother Xiaoyu, what are you doing?”

Wu Xiaoyu stood up, saw her smiling brightly at him, and proudly said, “I’m inspecting the equipment!”

“Last time, a small fault caused the repairman so many grievances.

I need to learn how to handle regular faults myself!”

Seeing his serious demeanor, Li Yujia couldn’t joke further and silently watched him work.

Noticing that no one else had arrived yet and there was still nearly an hour before work started, Wu Xiaoyu had a curious thought.

“Jiajia, could you hold the manual for me?” Wu Xiaoyu held the equipment manual out to Li Yujia.

Li Yujia reached out to take it but was suddenly grabbed by Wu Xiaoyu, who then innocently said, “Jiajia, I didn’t mean to!”

“It’s…

it’s okay!” Li Yujia withdrew her hand, her face blushing.

Seeing her withdraw her hand, Wu Xiaoyu felt a bit unwilling but didn’t want to repeat the same move.

So he put the manual on the machine.

“Uh…

How many boxes were produced yesterday?” Wu Xiaoyu suddenly changed the topic.

Li Yujia answered earnestly, “We produced a hundred boxes yesterday.

Little Li came and took thirty boxes, leaving seventy boxes…”

As she was explaining, Wu Xiaoyu suddenly reached out and rubbed her cheek, saying, “Why do you have mushroom sauce on your face?”

Li Yujia was startled by his sudden action, quickly stepped back a few paces, and said somewhat angrily, “I…

I washed my face before coming!”

Washed her face?

What happened to the typical response you see in dramas?

Shouldn’t she blush and smile at me?

Seeing his attempts repeatedly thwarted, Wu Xiaoyu decided to push forward and asked, “Can our relationship be a bit closer?”

Closer?

Li Yujia’s face turned even redder, her heart raced, her body slightly trembled, and she stammered, “Now…

now it’s fine as it is!”

Wu Xiaoyu stepped forward and tightly grabbed her hand, saying, “Do you really not understand what I mean?

Or do you not like me?”

Even though his words were a bit cheesy, he had to say them; otherwise, he felt there was always a barrier between him and Li Yujia.

Seeing his serious demeanor, Li Yujia couldn’t bring herself to hurt his feelings or say something insincere.

She quickly shook her head and softly explained, “No…

it’s not like that!”

“So you do like me?

I think you should face our relationship head-on.

You can’t always be avoiding me!” Wu Xiaoyu stated.

Just as Li Yujia was about to speak, they suddenly heard the factory door open.

They turned to look and saw Liu Cuihua standing at the door, staring at them dumbfounded.

Dammit!

When did she arrive?

How did I not even notice?

I’ve been too careless!

Seeing Liu Cuihua, Li Yujia quickly shook off Wu Xiaoyu’s hand, turned around, and felt utterly embarrassed.

“Sister-in-law Cuihua, when…

when did you get here?” Wu Xiaoyu asked.

With a mysterious smile, Liu Cuihua said, “Not long ago, I just arrived…

just arrived!

I didn’t hear anything or see anything, don’t worry!”

Dammit!

Didn’t hear anything, didn’t see anything?

Do you think I’m stupid?

Your gossipy expression says it all!

Liu Cuihua’s sudden appearance made the atmosphere in the production workshop quickly grow awkward.

Li Yujia didn’t know what to do and turned away, trying to become invisible.

But as a man, and considering that he initiated today’s events, Wu Xiaoyu couldn’t avoid the situation.

“Sister-in-law Cuihua, let me explain…” Wu Xiaoyu had just organized his words and was about to plead for confidentiality when his cousin walked in with some people.

Wu Dashou entered boisterously, clearly unaware of the awkward tension in the workshop, and called out, “Sister-in-law Cuihua, why are you standing at the door like that?”

Liu Cuihua adjusted her sleeve and said, “I…

I just got here too!

What are you shouting about?”

After that, Liu Cuihua walked into the workshop as if nothing had happened, then went to wash her hands and change into her work clothes.

Wu Xiaoyu secretly glanced at her a few times, always feeling uneasy.

You must know that the women in this village gossip endlessly.

Liu Cuihua is no exception.

If she spreads what’s between him and Li Yujia, it will surely lead to trouble.

He had suffered from countless rumors and gossip from the villagers and had grown accustomed to it, able to ignore it completely.

But Li Yujia couldn’t!

He had dated her sister before, and the villagers had considered her his sister-in-law.

Now that he had broken up with her sister and got together with her, how would the villagers view Li Yujia?

The villagers could say all kinds of cruel things, and how could a young girl like her handle it?

Just as everyone in the factory began gathering, Wu Dashou started bringing in various materials to prepare for production.

Wu Xiaoyu checked the time; it wasn’t even 1:30 yet.

He stepped forward and asked, “Brother, it’s not time yet.

Why are you starting production so early?”

Before Wu Dashou could answer, his sister-in-law spoke up, “There’s nothing to do at home anyway.

Starting early means we can produce more!”

Wu Xiaoyu saw the high enthusiasm of the people in the workshop but couldn’t feel happy.

Starting production early isn’t a problem, but it puts me in a difficult spot!

Holding a can of soybean paste, Liu Cuihua placed it next to Li Yujia and asked seriously, “Jiajia, should all this soybean paste be emptied?”

“Uh…

Yeah, empty it all…” Li Yujia, even though she had changed into her work clothes and was ready to start, felt very conflicted!

Brother Xiaoyu, how did you become so blunt?

Now look, being caught by Sister-in-law Cuihua, she might gossip wildly!

Despite Li Yujia’s inner turmoil, she didn’t slack off in production.

She quickly adjusted her mood and pretended nothing happened while guiding Liu Cuihua.

Wu Xiaoyu watched Li Yujia’s busy figure.

He felt unsettled—was she prepared to face the gossip, or was she just holding on with worry?
