Chapter 241 The whole story
At this moment, Li couldn't help but think to herself: I never understood why my nieces and nephews from my mother's side would always praise me as the best in the world whenever I came back to visit my parents.
Now I finally understand the whole story. It turns out that they had such a wishful thinking - they wanted to get the latest new gadgets made by their daughters from me.
I really regret it! I should have known what they were thinking. The benefits brought by the brine recipe should not be given up so easily. After all, it was a secret recipe that my own daughter had painstakingly figured out. How could I give it away just because of a few flattering words from them? Humph, I have to be more careful in the future.
"I just woke up from a nap, and in a daze I seemed to hear someone calling my name, so I hurried over." The soft and sticky voice of the grass sounded gently, as gentle and beautiful as the spring breeze blowing through the tender green willow branches.
"Xiao Cao'er, you've come at the right time! Please get the soap recipe for us and then give it to us to make. Our family will take care of all the related matters, and you just need to stay at home and wait to collect the money." My third uncle's cousin's wife said to Xiao Cao'er eagerly with a smile on her face and her eyes almost narrowed into slits.
"What's the recipe?" Xiao Cao'er asked in confusion, blinking her big, watery eyes. Then she looked at Sanmao and asked anxiously, "Brother San, what's going on?"
"Oh, that's the recipe for the soap." My second uncle's cousin's wife quickly interrupted and explained.
"Oh, so that's how it is." Sanmao cleared his throat and began to tell Xiaocaoer in detail what had just happened.
Xiao Caoer listened attentively, nodding from time to time to show that he understood. When Sanmao finally finished, Xiao Caoer looked up at the cousins, still a little puzzled, and asked: "Any questions? If you really want this prescription, then prepare the money to pay. However, we can only go to Brother Xingyun to tell him about the situation. As for whether he agrees or not, it depends on what Brother Xingyun wants."
"Xiao Cao'er, the key problem is that we simply don't have that much money on hand." The second cousin's wife from my uncle's family looked embarrassed and complained with a sad face.
"Cousins, Brother Xingyun is a businessman. We have cooperated with him many times over the years, and this situation has never occurred. Both parties have acted in accordance with the contract. Now he suddenly wants to break the contract. Of course, we have to act in accordance with the contract." Xiaocao'er said softly.
"The problem is that this soap recipe is yours. Why should we pay for it?" My second uncle's cousin's wife widened her eyes and asked suspiciously.
"That's because the recipe now belongs to Brother Xingyun. He spent a huge amount of money to buy it. If you also want to get this recipe, you have to pay money to redeem it from him." Xiaocao'er at the side blinked her bright big eyes, and her voice was still as gentle as the breeze blowing across the lake.
"No, this contract doesn't count at all! You must give us this recipe. Besides, we don't have that much money. You can handle the rest by yourself. Otherwise, I will spread the word that you are not filial to your maternal grandparents!" Seeing that the second cousin's wife from my uncle's family had been haggling with my aunt's family for so long and the other party still refused to give in, she simply sat down on the ground and started to act like a rogue.
"Cousin, this contract has already been sent to the county government for filing. You can't just say it's invalid. Do you still think the county government is specially opened for your family?" Xiao Cao'er still spoke calmly in front of her second cousin's wife who was throwing a tantrum, but her voice was slightly raised.
"What? The contract has been sent to the county government for filing? Stop fooling me here, I don't believe it! The contracts our family signed with others never needed to be sent to the county government. Why do we have to go through this procedure when it comes to you? You must have made it up!" When my second uncle's cousin heard this, she immediately jumped up and retorted.
At this time, the elders of the Li family remained silent. They sat there with serious expressions, as if they were willing to let the younger generation handle this matter.
Sanmao stepped forward and said slowly, "Anything that has been filed at the county government office will have a special mark. If you have any doubts, you can go to the county government office to check at any time. Besides, my uncle and cousin are familiar with the people in the county government office, so it won't be difficult to find out the truth."
He paused, and continued, "As for why Brother Xingyun wants to register those things, I'm afraid only he himself knows best. After all, Brother Xingyun is engaged in big business, which is not comparable to the brine and soy products that you and your cousin are running. People like Brother Xingyun who often do big business naturally know how to plan ahead and leave a way out for themselves. If everyone is as unreasonable and entangled as my cousin, then Brother Xingyun's business will not be able to continue?" At this point, Sanmao couldn't help but frown, with a hint of dissatisfaction on his face.
