Biao Ye's men rushed over to check and then returned to report: "Sir, he's still unconscious in the box."
“Then it shouldn’t have been his men who did it, otherwise, his men would have taken him away,” Hu San said.
Uncle Biao said, "We've had a bad day. When we get back, we'll hire a shaman to burn incense and help us get rid of the evil spirits so that our business can continue to thrive."
"Okay, Boss Biao."
When Biao Ye recalled being attacked for no reason, a chill ran down his spine. He probably had too many bad deeds to hide and felt guilty. He dared not hurt Zhuang Feifei any further, nor did he dare to stay there any longer. He quickly left with his men.
Only Zhuang Feifei remained in the wooden box in the woods.
When she woke up, she found herself curled up in a wooden crate. Her first thought was of her goods, so she quickly got out of the crate.
They discovered that Boss Biao, his men, and the large truck they had driven were all gone.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly ran to the place where the goods had been piled up, only to find it completely empty.
Everything is gone!
Boss Biao actually double-crossed her!
Her two transactions with Master Biao both ended in failure, resulting in the loss of a large amount of goods. This made her think of Old Dong. Compared to Master Biao, Old Dong was a more worthy partner.
However, she was already somewhat exhausted after two failed deals.
She doesn't plan to sell a large quantity of goods in the short term; she'll wait until after the New Year.
Luo Jingyan had already returned to the educated youth settlement with the two cats. To reward her two great contributors, Luo Jingyan once again made them a delicious barbecue dish.
"Next time, I'll get some beef and mutton from Zhuang Feifei so I can cook even better food for you."
"Thank you, Master." Black Tiger was gnawing on a fragrant, spicy pork chop.
Fat Tiger kept his head down, munching on meat, and didn't have time to say a word.
Luo Jingyan doesn't plan to do business on the black market anymore for the time being.
Firstly, Zhuang Feifei was scammed this time and may not dare to ship any more goods for a while. Secondly, because Biao Ye is having cash flow problems, if she were to actively seek out Biao Ye to do business, it would be like a lamb entering a tiger's den, waiting to be scammed. Even if she is confident that she can avoid being cheated, she will not make a profit, which would be a pointless move.
It's better to stay quiet these few days and enjoy the New Year.
Before she knew it, it was the 28th day of the Lunar New Year. Luo Jingyan pasted a couplet on the door of her house, and then took the other two to the cowshed to paste couplets on the houses where her father, mother, and grandmother Zhang lived.
The couplets at this time did not contain ordinary auspicious phrases such as "Spring returns to the earth," "Family reunion," and "Bringing in wealth and treasures," but rather poems praising the red revolution and criticizing its dross, which made people feel very excited.
In the afternoon, Principal Chen from the No. 2 Middle School in the county arrived, accompanied by a woman in her forties, who was Principal Chen's wife. They were also carrying a large bag of things when they came to find Luo Jingyan.
Principal Chen's wife said, "Young Luo, we are so grateful to you for helping us find our child last time. We originally wanted to bring him with us, but it was too cold, so we left him at home. It's almost the New Year, so please accept these things; they are just a small token of our appreciation."
Luo Jingyan looked into the bag and saw pork, chicken, malted milk powder, White Rabbit milk candy—all good stuff—as well as roasted melon seeds, roasted peanuts, canned fruit, and fruit candy.
Luo Jingyan still refused, saying, "Principal Chen, sister-in-law, I don't need anything here. You should take your things back."
She doesn't care about these things, but without them, Principal Chen's family probably wouldn't have a good New Year.
The two refused, and Principal Chen said, "You didn't want the money when we offered it to you, and you don't accept the things we bought. This makes us uneasy."
Luo Jingyan reluctantly took out the can of malted milk powder and White Rabbit milk candy. "I'll take these two, okay? You can take the rest."
“How can this be allowed?” Principal Chen’s wife objected.
Luo Jingyan said, "Principal Chen, sister-in-law, it's fate that we met. From now on, we're friends. If you insist on using these things to buy out our friendship, then I'll accept them, and we'll have nothing to do with each other anymore."
"No, that's not what we meant," Principal Chen's wife hurriedly explained. Wouldn't that imply that they were all heartless and ungrateful people?
Luo Jingyan said, "It's the thought that counts, it's the gift. I've already accepted some, you can take the rest. From now on, we're friends. Friends shouldn't care about material things."
Principal Chen and his wife were both persuaded by Luo Jingyan. Before leaving, Luo Jingyan gave them some mung bean cakes and sesame candy. The couple felt very embarrassed, but they were still convinced by Luo Jingyan.
When you're out and about, having more friends means having more options, and Luo Jingyan didn't want to close that door for a little bit of profit.
Principal Chen and his wife left the educated youth settlement after expressing their deepest gratitude to Luo Jingyan.
On the 29th day of the Lunar New Year, since Shen Ruyi and Tong Jianxin had both gone home, the educated youth settlement was temporarily unattended, and the rule that it had to close at 8 p.m. was no longer in effect.
Luo Jingyan plans to have dinner with Luo Changtian in the cowshed tomorrow. She has prepared to send pork, flour, frozen fish and shrimp, as well as New Year's goods such as black fungus, white fungus, tofu, dates, walnuts, peanuts, melon seeds, and candy two days ago.
On the 30th, Zhuang Feifei suffered a setback in her business and was unwilling to lose Lu Chengye, her future support. So she took meat to the Lu family to apologize, but the three members of the Lu family still refused to accept it. She had no choice but to take the meat to Liu Aiguo's house and eat dumplings there.
During this time, Li Hongying wanted to make Zhuang Feifei bleed, but she was afraid that being too eager would alert Zhuang Feifei, so she had to temporarily give up the idea and treat Zhuang Feifei politely.
But when she went to the toilet, she found bloodstains in the toilet.
Liu's mother had already gone through menopause, so it couldn't be Liu's mother's blood, nor could it be hers; it could only be Zhuang Feifei's. At this moment, her mind was filled with the desire to seize the space, regardless of what kind of blood it was. Thus, she obtained Zhuang Feifei's blood once again.
Three more attempts are needed to successfully obtain Zhuang Feifei's space.
Only Lin Shanshan, Chen Yuling, Zhao Wensong, Zhao Jun, Sun Guoqing, and Meng Bin remained at the educated youth settlement. Zhao Wensong took gifts to Secretary Lai's house, while Lin Shanshan, Chen Yuling, Sun Guoqing, and Meng Bin ate together.
At first, Secretary Lai and his wife were not very keen on Zhao Wensong as their future son-in-law, but Lai Chunhua liked him so much that they agreed.
Xue Yanchen did not go to the Qin family in the county town. Instead, he spent the New Year with Luo Jingyan and the others, planning to visit the Qin family elders in the county town on the first day of the Lunar New Year.
He took the cured meat and sausages that Xue's mother had sent directly to the cowshed. By the time Luo Jingyan and Luo Changtian arrived, he was already there.
Luo Jingyan teased him, "You come and go as you please, just like it's your own home."
Xue Yanchen smiled and said, "I already consider myself a member of this family."
