Chapter 181 The women of the Gu family also want to go to the quarry
Li Mumu smiled and said, "Isn't that Concubine Rong's son?"
Gu Mingyu smiled and said, "This girl is really smart."
"However, uncle, I think there is another way. We don't even need Concubine Rong. Someone will come and deal with County Magistrate Dong."
No one asked this time, the answer was obvious.
As the Gu family expected, Li Ye and Li Yuan no longer had to go to the quarry to work. However, what made everyone curious was that the men did not go, but Li Fengzhu, a girl, still had to get up early and go to the quarry late.
But this is the Li family's business, and they have no right to interfere.
Shi Zecheng also saw some signs from this and felt that just as he expected, the Li family was about to make a comeback.
Just say that his vision is not wrong, and the silly girl still doesn't stop him.
He planned to make his daughter marry Li Yuan after he returned, regardless of whether she was willing or not. It was not her decision.
The yamen runners seemed to have received orders and would find trouble with the three brothers of the Gu family whenever they got the chance.
They endured it because they didn't want to cause trouble.
But Li Mumu didn't want to endure it anymore.
Just as she thought, given the nature of the Li family, once they get the chance, they will definitely cause trouble for the Gu family.
Soon the bailiffs came, saying they wanted to see if anyone had escaped, and took the opportunity to search the house thoroughly.
"Who is he?" the bailiff asked, pointing at Xie Xun with a cold face.
The Gu family immediately became cautious, "This is the marriage our family arranged for our child."
"Her? So young? Engaged?" The bailiff looked at Li Mumu.
Li Mumu tilted her head, "Child marriage, isn't that possible?"
The yamen runner glanced at Xie Xun and said sarcastically, "Boy, you're so young and you're already thinking about living off others. You're still young, but your teeth are not good enough?"
Xie Xun frowned, but Li Yunchao held his wrist. These people were obviously here to provoke him, for no other reason than to mess with his mood.
But once you fall into his trap and start fighting with them, you will be given an opportunity to take advantage of.
"Are you envious of me?" Xie Xun pushed Li Yunchao's hand away. "I'm so young and already have a wife, but you're old and still don't. Is that right?"
"You..." The bailiff was furious.
Li Mumu wanted to laugh when she heard this, and asked, "No one can be more sharp-tongued than Xie Xun."
But there is no point in being bullied all the time. It would be better if the matter got out of hand. It would be best if it alerted the higher-ups so that she doesn't have to run to the provincial capital.
"You little bastard, you dare to act tough with me? I think you deserve a beating."
Xie Xun said coldly, "I'm not a fugitive. Are you sure you want to oppress the people? Besides, you can't beat me."
Another yamen runner pulled his companion aside and said, "Forget it, don't bother with a child. Gu Jian, your family seems to be doing well. Did you hide any valuables before?"
He just saw chicken, duck, fish and meat in the kitchen, and there was quite a lot of it. These things would never be found in the homes of ordinary fugitives.
"My mother earned it from business, is that not okay?" Gu Yu said.
The police insisted on investigating, so his aunt had to let the children go back temporarily, and he also came back.
"Doing business? What kind of business can make so much money?" the bailiff asked curiously.
The other exiles were all overambitious and had poor skills, and their lives were a mess. However, the Gu family seemed determined to settle down here and not leave.
Very down-to-earth.
"We're setting up a small stall to do business, sir. Although we're exiles, it's not illegal to do business, right?"
"It's not illegal, but the adults said that the women of your Gu family must also go to the quarry to work. At least three people, you can divide it among yourselves."
"Why?" Zhang Yi asked, "Other women don't have to go, why do we have to go?"
"You ask me, who should I ask? This is the order of the county magistrate. If you don't go, you can try it!" The bailiff snorted coldly.
After turning the Gu family's house into a mess, the yamen runners left, taking away Song Qiang's fried meatballs and noodle fish.
"Damn it, this must be the Li family's idea. They just can't stand to see us getting ahead. How much does it cost to go to the quarry in a day? I make more in a day setting up a stall than I do in a whole month. It's so despicable." Song Qiang complained.
"What's even more abominable is that those two bastards stole our dinner."
Li Mumu blinked, "They won't benefit from the things they steal."
"Mumu, did you take action?"
Li Mumu nodded. "It was the officers' idea to search us, so we can't blame them. But it's their fault for stealing our things."
Zhang Yi took a deep breath. "The kids have just shown some enthusiasm for studying and are very serious about it. I'm not afraid of hard work, but it's a pity for the kids..."
"Aunt, please stay and teach."
"Yes, Mom, I'll go. I can move around easily now." Gu Lan said.
Zhang Yi shook her head after hearing this. "Your belly is getting bigger day by day. There's no reason for your mother to let you go."
"Yes, cousin, you don't have to go. I'll go."
"Mumu, you're still young..."
Zhang Yi shook his head again, "Let me go. Lan'er, you teach the children to read for me."
"Although I'm young, they didn't say that children can't go." Li Mumu said with a smile, "My mother, my second aunt and I will go. My second aunt doesn't set up her stall every day anyway. We can wait a few days and ask them to send us back."
Everyone knew that the little girl must have some bad ideas brewing in her mind.
"Brother Xie, aren't you leaving the North? Just go and help me write a letter to my godmother and send it over."
Xie Xun nodded, "I understand."
"I will let the dog official know that it is easy to invite a god but difficult to send him away."
The next day, the three men and three women of the Gu family went to the quarry, chatting and laughing.
Li Fengzhu felt a little complicated when she saw those people with rosy complexions and radiant looks.
But then she thought, no matter how capable the Gu family is, didn't they still end up here?
This made her feel much better.
"Why is there a child here?" The kitchen manager looked at the others, especially Li Mumu, with a look of disdain on his face. "Hurry back! Aren't you wasting time?"
"The county magistrate didn't say not to let children come?" Li Mumu said, "You don't even listen to the county magistrate? Your list is so big."
"I...I didn't say that. Then get to work and don't be lazy. Do as much as others do. Go wash these vegetables."
Li Mumu smiled and nodded, "Okay!"
When Li Fengzhu saw Li Mumu leaving with the vegetables, she thought about the grievances she had suffered these days and deliberately stretched out her legs.
Unexpectedly, Li Mumu didn't fall, but she was stepped on hard.
That stupid girl, she will definitely teach her a lesson.
"Boss, I have something to tell you."
The man glanced at Li Fengzhu. Although she was young, the scars on her face were really disgusting. He distanced himself and said, "If you want to talk, just say it. Don't get so close."
Hatred flashed across Li Fengzhu's eyes, but she quickly suppressed it. "Li Mumu, that's the new girl. She knows medicine and can poison people. You'd better be careful with her!"
