Su Laosan looked at the not-so-young man and chuckled dryly.

A very strange way of greeting.

Chen Xian looked at the arrogant man in the crowd.

Before Liu Quan could say anything more, Chen Gui whispered, "You'd better not talk nonsense now. Otherwise, I won't be able to help you later. It's none of your business. Just watch quietly."

Liu Quan nodded awkwardly.

His face remained calm, but his heart was churning with turmoil.

Goodness, this guy seems to have a lot of prestige among the villagers.

It seems even Chen Gui is giving them some face.

Chen Xian looked at Liu Quan and said calmly, "Brother Liu, I would like you to explain to me the whole story."

In no time, the villagers understood.

Tiger's father looked at the man standing to the side with a serious expression.

"Brother You, how dare you be so arrogant in our village? Who gave you the guts?"

Boss You's face was indifferent, but he looked at the clamoring man and felt a little embarrassed.

"Am I not stating the facts? You jinx! And the fact that we farmers build big brick and tile houses is already eye-catching. You have more people, so now you won't even let us speak the truth?"

Chen Dashui's face was cold and stern as he shouted, "Damn it, you talk about people behind their backs and you still think you're right? Beat the hell up!"

The rioting crowd began to become agitated.

Chen Qingshan shouted a few times, but he couldn't stop the stubborn donkey. Chen Gui was also slightly taken aback.

This is bad.

Just as a feeling of unease began to rise in his heart, he saw Chen Xian wave his hand.

The villagers immediately fell silent.

In that instant, Boss You hadn't taken the ordinary-looking man in front of him, who was only slightly paler than himself, seriously.

He was a skinny man, like a small, starving dog from the village.

But as the man gestured, everyone immediately fell silent, stunned, and a chill suddenly ran through them.

Damn it, a dog that bites doesn't bark.

Chen Xian's expression was calm as he stared straight at him, his voice as firm and powerful as a magnet.

"Hey bro, you say I have a bit of money and I'm showing it off? I'll take it!"

After all, I don't know why I have such a talent for doing business. I originally thought I could just set up a stall, earn some hard-earned money for the whole family, and renovate the house...

"But who knew that the money we earned seemed to have a reproductive capacity, and the more we spent, the more we had. So we simply used it all to build a big brick house."

Everyone initially thought Chen Xian would try to gain sympathy, but who would have thought that what this man said was actually quite simple and honest, but... it was just too damn infuriating.

The villagers of Hongye Village remained silent for a moment.

Chen Xian changed the subject, his voice turning cold.

“You can make fun of me, but you’re saying that my wife, Su Liniang, is still spreading rumors about her being a jinx, making my wife uncomfortable, which is making Mr. Chen uncomfortable.”

"Chen is weak and powerless, but when a common man gets angry, blood will splatter five steps away."

The words were calm, without a trace of anger or accusation.

The villagers of Qingxia Village, armed with bricks, surrounded them, forming a tight, impenetrable circle, further compounded by the threat posed by the not-so-young farmer in front of them.

The sight caused the faces of more than ten men from Hongye Village to suddenly turn grim, and they swallowed hard.

At this moment, even the persistent chirping of cicadas seemed to have stopped.

Even the wind seemed to be frightened away, hiding to one side.

Spying on someone.

There was no wind, and it was sweltering. Boss You wiped the sweat from the corner of his eye, his vision blurry. All his arrogance and swagger from before had vanished.

Instead, there was unease, looking around anxiously, seeing enemies everywhere.

It was as if someone suddenly jumped out from among those people and unexpectedly hit him with a brick.

He'd seen people like that before—fighting men who weren't afraid of anything, the kind who'd explode at the slightest provocation, and in the end, it was all about who had the bigger strength. In the end, both sides would back down, venting their anger and then it would be over.

The worst kind of person is the one who first tries to reason with you calmly and then suddenly attacks you, stabbing you without warning. Such a person has almost already made the worst-case scenario plan before the incident even happens.

He opened his mouth and shouted a few words.

Suddenly, he realized something terrifying: this person seemed to be educated, and the words he spoke were very refined. He had heard that scholars were the most insidious.

Su Liniang listened quietly. The words were extremely ordinary, yet they possessed a magical power that made the young woman slightly tipsy.

Fine goosebumps crawled from her snow-white oval face all the way to her earlobes, making her skin rosy.

Chen Xian suddenly had another way to completely eliminate the jinx and solve the problem once and for all.

He walked up to Liniang and whispered something in her ear.

Li Niang was puzzled and stubbornly shook her head. Chen Xian rubbed her head and said calmly, "Be good."

The young woman's cheeks were as pink as fresh lychees, as if she had applied rouge, rosy and flushed.

Shuangshuang also came closer to Chen Xian, her face full of anticipation, her watery eyes brimming with expectation.

"The same to you."

"..."

Chen Xian turned and left.

"Uncle Village Head, do you know what kind of food my family has been selling at our stall lately?"

Chen Gui chuckled and said, "Isn't it braised pork? Pork is really delicious. My wife has tried making it a few times, but it's never as good as yours. I never knew you were such a food connoisseur!"

"No, it's not that I've done in-depth research, but rather that this dish was created by Li Niang by chance, and then the whole family tried and made it together to make braised pork."

The room fell silent upon hearing this.

Especially Chen Gui, Chen Qingshan, and Uncle Chen's family, they had tasted Chen Xian's braised pork before. The taste was smooth and delicious, and the appearance was also very tempting, with a perfect combination of color, aroma and flavor.

As a result, the Chen family has made a lot of money with this skill, and now they are building houses, pig farms, and chicken farms, which probably involves a lot of investment.
