Transmigrated only to be buried? To voluntarily commit suttee for her husband? Xu Zhichun, terrified, lifted the white shroud and sat up, tearfully telling everyone that King Yama wouldn't take...
Chapter 245 The Qin Family's Business
Aunt Liang was stunned and angrily scolded: "Who is this nonsense? I will tear her mouth apart! Our Xiaoman is fine, don't be so useless, wipe your tears quickly, don't let the child see it and feel sad."
"Yes, yes, I, I"
Liu hurriedly wiped away her tears, "I, I can't let Xiaoman be sad."
When she saw her son, who was full of smiles and full of energy, Mrs. Liu was stunned. Just like Aunt Liang San before, tears welled up in her eyes. Her son was so sensible. He had suffered such a serious injury and was bandaged like this, but he still forced a smile to comfort them and didn't want to worry them.
Liang Xiaoman was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
After finally comforting grandpa and grandma, now it's dad and mom's turn.
Liang Xiaoman quickly reported the good news first and then the bad news, which shocked Liang Minghai and Liu.
“This, this—”
"Are you telling the truth?"
"Zhichun really wants you to be the manager? Can you manage it well? Hundreds of acres of fertile land and a dozen servants, are all handed over to you to manage?"
"Ah, how's your injury? Are you really okay?"
"I think you should stop being so silly and stop laughing. You need to heal your injuries first."
"Yes, this injury is real, it makes people feel distressed just looking at it."
"I think he looks fine. He'll be fine, he'll definitely be fine. Don't worry too much."
"Um"
The good news brought by Xu Zhichun made the originally sad and painful event very indifferent, and Liang Lizheng's family was full of joy.
Liang Xiaoman was full of confidence and was recuperating at home peacefully.
I wish things would get better tomorrow.
That night, Liang Xiaoman indeed had a fever. Fortunately, Xu Zhichun had given him anti-inflammatory drugs without making a fuss, so the fever was not very serious and he was alert.
Even so, Liang Lizheng's family was terrified. Liu and Aunt Liang San, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, barely slept a wink all night, refusing to listen to anyone's advice, and stubbornly stayed awake all night.
Fortunately, Liang Xiaoman's fever finally subsided the next morning, and the whole family breathed a sigh of relief.
Liang Lizheng knew very well that as long as they got through this night, all that was left was for them to recover slowly.
Besides feeling sorry for the child, the whole family was filled with hatred.
Early in the morning, Li Zheng Liang went to Xu Zhichun's house.
"Village Chief."
"Zhichun, thank you so much for yesterday."
Yesterday, the Liang family was so restless that they couldn't take care of anything else, so Liang Lizheng specially came to express his gratitude formally.
The more I think about this, the more scared I become. If Xiaoman hadn't been so lucky to meet Xu Zhichun, I would have been in a state of chaos and who knows what would have happened.
Who would bother looking for trouble these days? Who would be willing to take his Xiaoman to the hospital? If he delayed any longer, who knew what the injury would become.
Xu Zhichun was polite and comforted Liang Lizheng a few words, and also confirmed with him that she really intended to hire Liang Xiaoman as the manager of the farm in Loujia Village.
Even though it had been confirmed before, Liang Lizheng was still extremely happy at this moment and thanked again and again.
He hesitated for a moment, then sighed and said, "Zhichun, Xiaoman has suffered so much and been wronged so badly. Although my family may not be very capable, we are not cowards. I must seek justice for him. Do you know who the merchant Xiaoman is an apprentice for is? It is the business of Master Qin in the county town. I know your family has a good relationship with Master Qin's family. This matter won't embarrass you, right?"
Xu Zhichun was very surprised: "Master Qin's business?"
"Um."
Xu Zhichun thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Lizheng, I don't think Mr. Qin is the kind of person who is overbearing and unreasonable. I'm afraid that the people below are not good. How about this, I will go with you, and we will go to find Mr. Qin first."
"Is this—is it too much trouble for you?"
"No, Xiaoman has been wronged, and I can't just stand by and watch no matter what I say."
Liang Lizheng was extremely grateful. "Zhichun, I won't say much to thank you. If you have any problems in the future, just come to me and your aunt. As long as it is possible, I will definitely do it for you."
Xu Zhichun smiled and said, "Then I must thank you, uncle."
Without further ado, the two decided to go today.
After breakfast, Xu Zhichun called Chunfen and asked the newly bought little maid, renamed Muxiang, to stay at home to look after the house. Then he went into the city with Liang Lizheng, Liang Minghai, Liang Mingliang and Zeng Xiaoyan.
I didn’t have time to make konjac tofu and konjac noodles yesterday, so Aunt Zhuer is resting at home today and not setting up the stall.
Xu Zhichun thought that one muxiang was too small and not enough, so he had to buy a few more people so that business would not be delayed in the future.
This income is very stable. When there is more raw material in the future, she can dry it to make konjac vermicelli, grind it into powder, dry it and sell it as konjac flour, which is profitable. She doesn't want to give up.
Several people entered the county town and went straight to the Qin family.
Manager Zhang happened to come out of the Qin family and they met.
Xu Zhichun's attention was all on Liang Xiaoman yesterday and she didn't notice Manager Zhang. Unexpectedly, Manager Zhang was impressed by her. At first glance, she felt that she looked familiar. After taking a closer look, her expression suddenly changed.
He remembered.
Manager Zhang stopped the group of people who were about to knock on the door and sneered at Xu Zhichun: "What are you doing here? Is this a place you can come to?"
Zhang Cong said "Pah!" in his heart, feeling both contempt and anger: These people are quite capable, they actually came to the master's house. Fortunately, I came here to report the matter to the aunt today, otherwise I would have missed it.
Zhang Cong felt even more disgusted, with a fierce look on his face: "Get out of here!"
Liang Lizheng and the others looked puzzled. Xu Zhichun also remembered, "Uncle Lizheng, this person was the one who bullied Xiaoman yesterday."
"Is it him?"
The Liang family members were furious and stared at Zhang Cong with fire in their eyes.
Liang Minghai clenched his fists and asked, "Were you the one who bullied my son yesterday?"
Liang Mingliang sneered: "You are such a jerk, bullying my nephew. This matter will never end."
Zhang Cong's scalp tingled under the angry stares of the Liang family. He shouted in a timid tone, "I was wondering who it was. It turns out it was you! You are all Liang Xiaoman's family? That's perfect. Liang Xiaoman damaged our goods. Yesterday, I was kind enough to let him go and not ask him to pay for it. How dare you come to my house? And you dare to say that I bullied him? He's a worthless guy, why would I bully him? Do you have any evidence for your nonsense? If you don't, it's just a rumor. I won't let you go. It's true that poverty breeds unruly people! Your family must be crazy because of poverty, right?"
"Since you don't know what's good for you, you probably don't appreciate my kindness. Give me ten taels of silver as compensation."
"Bring it here quickly, or I'll send you to the authorities, have you beaten with a stick, and have you put in jail!"
Zhang Cong used this set of rhetoric that was the same in name only and could be used to improvise on the spot to scare away countless people.
After all, there is really no evidence for this kind of thing.
There are countless witnesses, but who is willing to come forward to testify for Liang Xiaoman?
Zhang Cong smiled sinisterly, and was ruthless in his heart: Since he has come here, he will never let him go unless he gives him money!
