Song Lao Er was taken aback, then looked at Song Zhao Di and said, "That's not right, wasn't our iron rod kept in the storeroom before? Did you take it out of the storeroom?"
Song Zhaodi shook her head.
When Song Lao Er got home, he went to Qiao Lianhua and asked her, but she didn't take it.
It wasn't Song Zhaodi, nor was it her.
When Song Lao Er asked Song Youdi, she immediately denied taking it.
Why is she holding an iron rod?
That left him with only two sons.
After his questioning.
They didn't take it either.
The more Song Lao Er thought about it, the more he felt that Song Youdi wasn't telling the truth. He grabbed a stick and started hitting her repeatedly: "Tell me, is Fang Erzhuang's death related to you?"
"Dad, please stop hitting me, it hurts so much."
"Zhaodi is your daughter, but I'm not, is that right?"
"If you insist that I admit it, then I will."
Song Youdi kept talking while dodging, which infuriated Song Lao Er.
suddenly.
When Song Lao Er remembered that Fang Dazhuang and the others still owed them money, he called Song Lao San and went to their door to collect it. However, not only did they fail to get the money, they were also beaten up by the other party's men.
Later, the matter went to the authorities, and although they got the money, they ended up getting beaten up for nothing.
Because no one can testify for them.
Mid-October.
Chang'an had just returned to Fengling Jade City from the capital of the Great Qi Dynasty. Jin Beicheng's villa sold for 5,000 taels of silver, and his estate sold for 20,000 taels of silver. In addition to the money he currently had, he had a total of more than 37,000 taels of silver.
Jin Beichen originally intended to have Chang'an handle it.
But unexpectedly.
Ji Ying asked him to personally sign the cooperation agreement.
then.
On October 19th, Jin Beicheng brought Chang'an and the others to Shengyuan Gambling House to see Ji Ying.
Ji Ying could tell from Jin Beicheng's appearance that he was no ordinary businessman, but he didn't dwell on it. After chatting for half an hour, he signed a cooperation agreement with him.
Jin Beichen did not use his real name, nor did he use the name Ning Wuxian. This time, he took one character from each of the two names and wrote Ningcheng when signing his name.
Signed.
Jin Beicheng looked directly at Ji Ying and said, "Boss Ji, I don't want a third person to know about my cooperation with you, so please keep it a secret."
"No problem!"
Ji Ying agreed.
Jin Beichen didn't have much money left; he only took the goods worth 12,000 taels of silver.
Although it's not a lot, it's not a small amount either.
Fortunately, Ji Ying had instructed Song Xia to recruit people in advance.
therefore.
Not to mention this little bit, we have plenty more.
However, not long after.
The inventory was gone.
Merchants from the Great Sage Dynasty and the Great Ming Dynasty, seeing that sweet potato vermicelli was selling well, not only bought a lot from Ji Ying, but also asked him to make more, saying they wanted as much as they could get.
Ji Ying informed Song Xia afterward.
Song Xia renegotiated the price with him. Because they wanted a lot of sweet potatoes, the price had gone up, increasing by one or two coins per pound, so she also wanted to raise the price.
The price rose to fifty coins per pound.
Ji Ying agreed without objection.
Upon returning to the village, Song Xia convened a meeting with everyone in the workshop and announced that anyone willing to work overtime would receive five coins for half an hour.
Upon hearing this, everyone readily agreed to work overtime.
Everyone was full of energy.
Those who used to eat only one meal at the workshop now have to eat two meals because they have to work overtime.
Song Xia then increased the wages for the cooks.
The fifth day of the eleventh lunar month.
Song Xia inspected everyone's work and noticed that Song Xiaohua was working much slower than usual.
She couldn't help but feel puzzled: "Sister Xiaohua, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
No, no.
Song Xiaohua shook her head.
Song Xia noticed that Song Xiaohua had hidden her hand. She pulled it over and saw the marks on her arm, which looked like they were from being burned. "Did he do this?"
Song Xiaohua grabbed Song Xia's hand and whispered, "He's just too angry. Don't go looking for him."
She doesn't even care about herself.
Could she possibly care?
Song Xia didn't want to delay the process because of her. After all, everyone said they had to work together. If you didn't get it done, how would the others get it done?
Song Xiaohua reacted and said, "I'll speed things up..."
Song Xia: "..."
Why does she feel like she's become a heartless boss?
After observing Song Xiaohua for several days, Song Xia noticed that not only had Song Xiaohua's injuries decreased, but they had also increased.
She went to see Fang Neng.
Fang was completely unharmed and dressed smartly. When he saw her coming, he greeted her with a smile: "Song Xia, you've come to watch us work? Don't worry, I'll definitely do a good job for you."
As he spoke, he reached out his hand toward Song Xia's hand.
Before he could even touch her.
Song Xia grabbed him and pulled him behind her back, saying, "You dare to take advantage of me? Have you lost your mind?"
"What nonsense are you spouting? How did I take advantage of you...?"
Only then can one stubbornly refuse to admit it.
The people working around him all spoke up for Song Xia, saying they had all seen him reach out.
Fang still denied it: "I just saw that she was a little dirty, so I wanted to take a picture of her..."
"Take a picture?"
Song Xia released him and kicked him: "Don't you know that men and women shouldn't touch each other? If there's a next time, I'll break your hand!"
Song Laosan felt a sense of relief upon seeing this and didn't come over, pretending to be too busy to see it.
Fang Neng was punished by Song Xia in front of so many people, and after work, everyone was pointing and gossiping about him. He felt extremely uncomfortable.
As soon as I went out.
Fang Neng then kicked Song Xiaohua: "You useless bitch, if you were as capable as Song Xia, would I have come here to suffer with you?"
Song Xiaohua didn't dare to utter a sound.
Fang Neng got even angrier and kicked her a few more times.
Finished kicking.
Fang didn't pay her any more attention and left with a torch.
Although Song Xiaohua really wanted to go back to her parents' home, she didn't dare. She wiped away her tears and quickly chased after them.
If she doesn't catch up with him, she won't be able to see the road at all without the firelight.
I thought I would have to stumble and fall a few times before I could catch up with him.
But unexpectedly.
Only then could he stand at the corner ahead and wait for her.
Why doesn't he leave?
Are you going to kick her?
Song Xiaohua was so frightened that she didn't dare to breathe.
Fang Neng waited for a while and then became impatient. He stepped forward and said, "Why are you walking so slowly? Hurry up, or how long will it take you to get home?"
He stopped kicking her?
Song Xiaohua was somewhat surprised.
Fang Neng didn't say anything the whole way until they were almost at his house. He called out to Song Xiaohua, "Wife, you haven't given me a child in so long. Don't you feel guilty? Others your age have already had children, but you haven't had any reaction at all!"
"My lord, I'm so sorry..."
Song Xiaohua apologized instinctively.
Fang Neng suddenly grabbed her chin: "You really think you've wronged me?"
Song Xiaohua nodded.
Fang leaned closer and whispered, "If you really feel you've wronged me, then help me win over Song Xia. That way, you won't have to give birth; she can bear the child for you..."
"This, this won't do..."
Song Xiaohua was so frightened that she took several steps back.
Fang Neng grabbed her and said, "If you don't do this, I'll send you home tomorrow and spread the word that you can't have children. Let's see who will want you then! Your father is a sexist and no good. Do you think he'll let you stay in that house forever? Guess what will happen to you?"
