Chapter 86 Chapter 86 "You made him...

"It was you who asked them not to sell pork to my younger sister?" Uncle Chen looked at Zhao and asked. Zhao originally thought that they had come to their senses and wanted to come back, but she didn't expect it was for this matter.

She turned her face away guiltily, "It was Dad who told her to do that. It has nothing to do with me."

"You know Dad's temper, and I can't control it."

Finally, Zhao's neck fell,

"If you're here to lecture me, I can only say that instead of wasting your time, you might as well have your younger sister and the others sell the recipe to Dad. Then we can all still be a family."

After hearing this, Uncle Chen suddenly had nothing to say. Everything was meaningless.

Before leaving, he asked again,

"Zhao Huan, have you treated me as a family member all these years?"

However, before the woman could answer, Uncle Chen left.

Zhao was left looking at Uncle Chen's back. For some reason, she felt a little uncomfortable, as if she was about to lose something.

Why didn't she treat him as a family member? If not, how could she have given birth to his children over the years? If not, why would she think about earning more money so that he could relax and have a good time in the future without having to work hard to butcher pigs?

Don’t you think that she is doing all this just for herself?

Zhao felt a little aggrieved.

Yes, she admitted that she shouldn't have set her sights on his sister, but did his sister really treat him as her brother? If she did, she should have taken the initiative to hand over the recipe. Isn't it good for everyone to make money?

He was so foolish that he treated the other person as a treasure.

The more Zhao thought about it, the sadder she felt. She felt that her true love for her husband was met with his cold treatment.

On this side, after Uncle Chen left, he went directly to the next door to find his father-in-law, Butcher Zhao.

Butcher Zhao was washing his hands in the yard, and pig blood flowed along the moss all over the yard.

When he saw his son-in-law Chen Tiezhu coming, he immediately knew why he came, but he looked as if nothing had happened and said with a smile,

"Tiezhu, you're here. It's just right. Come with me to the village to collect pigs this afternoon."

Chen Tiezhu's face was gloomy, but he still called him respectfully, "Dad, do you really have to do this?"

Butcher Zhao put away his smile upon hearing this and pretended to be dumbfounded.

"Son-in-law, what are you talking about? What did I do? How come I don't know?"

Seeing that his father-in-law, Butcher Zhao, didn't want to admit it, Chen Tiezhu asked again, "Dad, weren't those the instructions?"

Butcher Zhao continued with an innocent look, "What did I confess? Son-in-law, you need to speak clearly. You can't just make false accusations against others. Even if you go to the county government, the county magistrate won't recognize you."

"But I encountered something very interesting when I went to buy pigs two days ago. That day, your eldest brother and I heard that someone was raising pigs in the mountains, so we thought we'd go there to have a look. But when the farmer saw us coming to buy pigs, he immediately raised the price, thinking we had to buy his pigs. Isn't that funny? So of course we couldn't buy his pigs anymore. After we came back, we told everyone else, and no one dared to buy his pigs anymore. He couldn't sell his pigs anymore because of this. Isn't that funny?"

Chen Tiezhu listened to these suggestive words and asked directly, "Dad, what do you mean?"

Butcher Zhao spread his hands and said, "I don't mean anything. What could I mean? I just thought this story was very interesting and told you about it. You can go back and tell your sisters about it, so they can listen to it and have a laugh."

Chen Tiezhu stared at Butcher Zhao, "Dad, are you really going to go this far?"

Butcher Zhao didn't say anything, but his arrogant expression betrayed his true thoughts.

Chen Tiezhu, "Okay, I understand. I hope Dad won't regret it in the future."

After saying that, Chen Tiezhu turned and left.

After he left, Butcher Zhao spat and said, "Who the hell dared to threaten him?"

At this time, Zhao also came over. She thought of her husband Chen Tiezhu's appearance just now, and felt really uneasy, so she thought of coming to discuss this matter with her father, Zhao the Butcher.

"Dad, let's just forget it." Zhao thought about it. Although the recipe could earn a lot of money, she hadn't got it yet after all. Compared to the money, she wanted her husband back more.

Her husband has been away for the past few days, and there is no one to cook for her, no one to wash her clothes, and no one to massage her legs at night. She is really exhausted, and if possible, she still wants her husband to come home.

"What's the point of calculating? I don't believe we can't get the recipe. Just wait and see. It won't be long before the Su family will take the initiative to sell the recipe to us."

"Don't worry, if Chen Tiezhu gets angry and wants to divorce you, just put the blame on me and say it was me who asked you to do it and it has nothing to do with you."

"But..." Zhao felt that her husband's anger this time was different from before. Thinking of her husband's expression just now, she felt uneasy.

"Okay, daughter, don't worry. Your father doesn't understand men. He was able to marry you for our family's money, and he can come back on his own later. Everything will be fine once he calms down."

Yes, what Dad said makes sense.

Zhao hummed, but was still a little upset.

At this time, Butcher Zhao and Mrs. Zhao had no idea what would happen next. It was not until the next day when the Zhao family went to collect the pig as usual that they discovered that the pig was gone! ? ?

It would have been fine if the first family didn't get any, but the second family didn't get any either. After a whole morning, they only received two or three pigs. After they were slaughtered and sent to the restaurant, they found that someone had already delivered them. The person who delivered them was none other than Chen Tiezhu, and he had also taken the money for the pork in the previous two months.

Butcher Zhao immediately loudly questioned the restaurant's accountant why he had paid him the money. However, the accountant simply replied, "Isn't he your son-in-law? Did he divorce your daughter?"

Butcher Zhao was left speechless.

After returning home, he threw a tantrum and asked his daughter to go find Chen Tiezhu and get the silver back.

But when Zhao went there, she found nothing, as the entire Chen family was not there.

In the next few days, Butcher Zhao and his two sons still couldn't get any pigs, and even the families who had pigs refused to sell them. After asking carefully, they found out that Chen Tiezhu actually gave one cent more per pound of live pigs. No wonder no one sold to them.

Butcher Zhao was so angry that he started cursing. This was his good son-in-law, but he actually stabbed him in the back.

But even though he was so angry that he almost vomited blood, he still said to the farmer, "He gave you a penny more, okay, then we'll give you two pennies more."

After hearing this, the pig farmer was no fool and was willing to sell the pigs to him.

Zhao the butcher who received the pig started to feel proud again. One day, he saw Chen Tiezhu who was collecting pigs with Chen Laoer and his two nephews on the road. Seeing that Chen Tiezhu did not receive the pig, he mocked him and said,

"Son-in-law, what's wrong? Didn't you receive the pig?"

"Do you want me to split you in two?"

"Hahaha."

Seeing that Chen Tiezhu remained silent, Butcher Zhao continued, "It's said that good advice is hard to persuade a damned ghost. Son-in-law, I have already advised you, so don't blame me for being ungrateful next time."

After saying that, Butcher Zhao sneered twice, and Zhao Da and Zhao Er also snorted, and then the three of them left.

After hearing this, Chen Tiezhu stopped collecting the pigs and asked his second brother to take his nephew back first. He then hurried to the Su family and told Chen, Su Li and others what Butcher Zhao had just said.

It's no wonder that he's so paranoid. He knows his father-in-law too well. He always does things to get what he wants. He has personally witnessed the shady tricks he used to get someone to stop selling pigs to him or steal his business over the years.

The other party may not be cruel to him. After all, he is still his son-in-law on the surface, and has not yet really drawn a clear line with the Zhao family. But it is not certain about my younger sister's family. Who knows what they will do.

I have to say that Uncle Chen's prediction was correct, but Uncle Chen only predicted one thing correctly. He did not predict that the subsequent development would be so twists and turns and bizarre.

After returning, Butcher Zhao deliberately found a few gangsters he had hooked up with before. These people had helped Butcher Zhao drive away several of his former butcher colleagues, so they were old acquaintances.

"Here are two taels of silver, and there will be three more after the job is done." Butcher Zhao flattered the leading thug.

"We just need to scare them so they don't dare to set up stalls."

"It's the same as before, brothers all know it." Lai Ermaizi spat and said nonchalantly.

"But your silver is too little. It's time to increase it after so many years. It's not even enough for us brothers to drink."

Butcher Zhao's face froze, and then he took out another two taels of silver and said, "It's too little."

Lai Ermaizi was satisfied after seeing this.

He earned another 7 taels of silver for free today. He is really amazing.

As for scaring people, I heard that there were two women doing it, so it was so simple and easy, not difficult at all.

Lai Ermaizi didn't even want to go into battle himself, so he just asked three of his younger brothers to go, while he went to the gambling house to live a life of luxury.

As a result, when they went there, those younger brothers still hadn't returned until dark. Lai Ermaizi had lost all his money and was about to go and get the rest. It was not a good thing that they didn't come back, so he asked another younger brother to go and ask about them. It turned out that it would be fine if he hadn't asked, because after asking, he found out that the younger brother had actually been put in jail.

? ?

Lai Ermazi's first reaction was anger. Who dared to lock him up?

Don’t you know that his brother works in the county government?

"It was Lord Cao who ordered our brother to arrest him." Lord Cao? Lai Ermazi was stunned. The clerk in charge of the household department?

Why would he care about this?

"I heard that the young lady from the Su family was preparing a banquet for Lord Cao's family. Today, when the three of them went there, they happened to run into the servants from Lord Cao's house coming to invite them. Seeing the three of them causing trouble, they sent for someone to arrest them."

? ?

These words sound familiar when they are separated, but why do they sound so strange when they are put together?

However, Lai Ermaizi still understood one thing, that is, the person that the butcher wanted them to drive away today knew Lord Cao from the Household Department?

Why didn't anyone tell him this?

You have to know that in the county government, although only those above the rank of County Magistrate can be addressed as "Sir", in front of people like them, who among the three classes and six offices of the county government is not an "Sir"? Especially that Sir Cao, who is said to have a close relationship with the County Magistrate.

If I offend him... Thinking of this, Lai Ermaizi almost broke out in a cold sweat and immediately gave up the idea of ​​rescuing his younger brother.

He is not stupid. His brother has worked hard to get a job as a police officer, and he cannot lose his brother's job because of such a small matter.

As for his three younger brothers, I don't think anything serious happened to them. They will probably be released after two days in prison.

However, Lai Ermaizi felt very uncomfortable because he was holding this anger in his heart. He could not go to the Su family, but he could go to the Zhao family.

If it weren't for Zhao Si, his brothers wouldn't have been caught. He should be the one to compensate for these losses.

The more Lai Ermaizi thought about it, the more he felt it was right, so he immediately took the remaining people to the Zhao family.

Su Li naturally didn't know what was happening here.

She thought throughout the whole process that she had just encountered hooligans who came to collect protection fees, and then they were quickly captured by people from the Cao family, and it didn't affect her at all.

"My wife said she wants you to take another look at tomorrow's order. If everything looks good, she'll send someone to buy it."
