Chapter 114 Weird Guy
The Rutangs were honest businessmen and often gave everyone a higher price for agricultural products. Sometimes they even gave away some green vegetables as gifts. For rural residents, these vegetables were grown in their own area and were not worth much.
But for city dwellers who don’t have land, they have to buy all these things with money. They feel they are getting a good deal and they recognize this young couple who run their business with integrity even more.
Some male employees helped carry the cans that everyone wanted to exchange to Rutang's donkey. Rutang took a small notebook and wrote down the goods that everyone would need next time.
Three or five eggs, a few kilograms of rice, what everyone wants is not much, and it is quite a lot when you add it up for each family. If someone else were to do this business, they would not be able to keep track of the accounts.
Rutang made a table, which is the Excel commonly used in later generations. It is clear at a glance. No matter how complicated the things people want, she can calculate them accurately to the minute, without a penny difference.
The farmers also record it this way. I taught my uncle the accounting skills, and he just filled in the information when he received the goods.
The Rutang couple now have many money-making projects, and the profit from exchanging canned food for agricultural products is the lowest. In fact, they can give up, but after discussing with Yu Yaoyang, they decided to stick with it.
This project can help many people, so Rutang is willing to earn less.
"Daughter-in-law Yangzi, I think your accounting skills are better than the cashier in our factory. Have you ever been educated?" A female employee had been standing next to Rutang. She was convinced by how she handled business with ease.
“I went to high school.”
"Then why didn't you continue studying?" someone asked.
"My husband and I don't have a good family background. We are taking a year off to earn tuition fees. We will take the college entrance examination next year."
Rutang's words made everyone stand in awe. They turned out to be such an inspiring young couple. No wonder they are so good at doing business.
Rutang collected a truckload of canned food, which was heavier than agricultural products. They were neatly stacked in boxes. It was a long uphill climb back home, and Rutang was sweating profusely.
When Yu Yaoyang was at home, he and Xiaoyue took turns riding the bike. Rutang was used to riding a bike, and seeing them riding bikes easily, she never expected that riding this thing was so hard.
It seems that her physical strength is still not enough and she needs to exercise.
No wonder every time they did that, she was so tired that she almost fainted, but he was still full of energy - cough cough, I was thinking wrongly.
Rutang's face flushed, and she tried to forget the dangerous images in her mind.
Yu Yaoyang took too much care of her. When they did business together, he took the initiative to do the hard and dirty work. Rutang was used to having an easy life. When he was not at home, she did the work alone and only then did she realize how much he took care of her.
Rutang was determined that she would exercise and be stronger in the future, which would not only help him share some of the burden but also make her healthier.
But before exercising, she decided to go back and take a shower, and her hair was wet with sweat.
Jingtian's heart broke when he saw Rutang.
This is how Rutang looked in his eyes: sweaty and dressed in rags. In order to facilitate transportation, Rutang picked out the most tattered clothes and rode on a tattered donkey that only the lower-class workers in the city rode, with the rags box on the donkey.
The words those people in the carriage said came to Jingtian's mind again. Rutang looked as if she had married the wrong person and had become a ragpicker.
It’s no wonder Jingtian thought so. Rutang did look a little embarrassed at the moment. The boxes in her car were given to her by the cannery workers to pack canned food. The boxes had probably been in the warehouse for too long and had been bitten by rats, so they were in tatters.
Rutang saw a tall man standing at the door, but she didn't look at him much. She just wanted to go into the house and take a shower.
"Chen Rutang!" Jingtian could no longer control his surging emotions and called out the name he had been thinking about day and night.
Hearing the man calling her, Rutang turned around and looked at the man in confusion, only to find that he looked very familiar.
"You are... Jingtian?"
Rutang recognized that this person was Jingtian. They were classmates in junior high school.
I had a deep impression of him in my previous life. Jingtian was also a businessman and was quite successful. However, he had little interaction with Yu Yaoyang and his wife. The businesses of the two families had little overlap, so it was difficult to meet them on weekdays.
Rutang didn't have a good impression of this man, and she hated him a little bit because Jingquan, who caused her to be abducted, was Jingtian's cousin.
The Jing family came to find her at this time. Rutang felt that they came for Jing Quan. They probably wanted her to reconcile with Jing Quan and have Jing Quan be sentenced to fewer years.
Thinking of this, Rutang's expression turned colder, and he asked in a distant tone, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
"I..." Jingtian's mind went blank and he didn't know what to say.
He came to see Rutang purely out of impulse.
When he heard the villagers say that she was not living a good life after marriage, he had only one thought in his mind: he wanted to see her.
He had liked her silently for so many years, and he wanted to go back to the village to find her after he had made some achievements.
But as fate would have it, she married a street urchin and the two missed each other.
Jingtian was unwilling to see the girl he had liked for so many years become someone else's woman.
He came over regardless, but when he saw the person who had been haunting him right in front of him, his throat felt like it was clogged with a ball of cotton and he couldn't speak.
Seeing that he had a strange expression, Rutang thought that he wanted to plead for Jing Quan, but he didn't know how to start. Thinking that although this guy also had the surname Jing, he had no grudge against him after all, his expression softened a little.
"If you come to me because of Jing Quan's matter, then there is nothing to say. I refuse to reconcile and believe in the fair trial of the law." Ru Tang said in a businesslike manner.
She thought Jingtian came here because he couldn't resist the request of his elders at home, so she said a few words to him so that he could explain himself when he returned.
"Jing Quan?" Jing Tian frowned, not understanding why she suddenly mentioned Jing Quan.
"He colluded with human traffickers to abduct me, and was caught when his deeds were exposed. How to sentence him is a matter of law. I will not reconcile. Go back and tell your family that no matter what you ask for, I will not agree."
Sending that bastard Jingquan in to pick up the soap has been Rutang's wish for two lifetimes, and she will never make any concessions for this.
Jingtian took a step back in shock. It turned out that Jing Quan went in because of her!
After expressing his attitude, Rutang turned around and was about to go into the house.
Jingtian clenched his fists, feeling mixed emotions.
There was loss, reluctance, and anger towards his cousin Jing Quan.
Before, he didn’t know that the person his cousin harmed was Rutang, and he thought that he had money and was willing to pay some money to help Jingquan get out earlier.
Now knowing that it was Jing Quan who harmed her, Jingtian didn't want to pay a penny and even hated Jing Quan.
He even became paranoid and believed that it was his cousin who destroyed his image, causing Rutang to lose her favor for anyone with the surname Jing, and that was why she married Yu Yaoyang in a desperate state.
"Chen Rutang, are you doing well now?" Jingtian called her.
Rutang turned around in confusion. Why was this guy asking this strangely?
