Chapter 48 Work and Money
"This matter was able to be handled so smoothly, thanks to your cooperation. When Yunxiao feels better, I will set up a table at home and invite you to have dinner." Qin Wan said to everyone in the room with a smile.
Before anyone could speak, they heard Li Yingying's sarcastic laugh: "You're still treating me to a meal? You married a cripple, will you still have money to treat me to a meal in the future?"
Li Yingying was really happy. Qin Wan didn't look like a girl from an ordinary family. She had money and could even build a house and move out by herself.
But what about now? What is the result? She actually married a cripple, a disabled man who will never be able to stand up again!
God really has eyes and did not let Qin Wan go on like this forever. Li Yingying finally felt much more balanced and even looked down on Qin Wan a little.
She really felt in her heart that Qin Wan was a fool.
Li Yingying clucked for a long time like a hen about to lay eggs, and then she realized that everyone in the room was staring at her, with no smile on her face.
Her smile froze, she snorted coldly, turned around, opened the door and ran away.
"This group of people are really sick!" Li Yingying cursed in her heart as she ran.
As soon as she left, the atmosphere in the room recovered a lot. After a few more words, Qin Wan, Li Ruolan and Deng Minghao went back to their homes.
"I didn't expect Qin Wan to be so capable. Not only did she get back the fifty yuan, she also asked the Lu family to sign a severance agreement. This way, when Lu Yunxiao's leg heals, the Lu family won't have a reason to come to our house."
Li Ruolan wanted to laugh when she thought about the expressions on the Lu family’s faces when they saw Lu Yunxiao’s healed legs.
Deng Minghao held his wife in his arms and covered her mouth: "Stop talking. Aren't you sleepy in the middle of the night? Go to sleep quickly. If you get enough sleep, there will be a good show to watch tomorrow."
Li Ruolan thought so too and went to bed immediately.
They both went to bed at around two o'clock, and when they woke up it was past nine o'clock. Li Ruolan and Deng Minghao got dressed and made breakfast.
Then she entered the space and started to work for a while. The chickens, ducks and geese all needed to be fed. Li Ruolan threw a few cabbages into a circle, and then grabbed a few handfuls of corn bran.
Deng Minghao is using a manual crusher to crush the harvested corn so that it can be fed to chickens and pigs.
After Li Ruolan fed all the animals in the space, she began to peel the sugarcane and chop it into small pieces, waiting for Deng Minghao to come and squeeze out the sugarcane juice so that she could use it to make brown sugar.
In this era, brown sugar is very precious. It can be given as a gift or sold.
1,500 kilograms of sugarcane can produce about 200 kilograms of brown sugar. Li Ruolan and Deng Minghao have already thought about it. During the winter, they will make brown sugar in the space.
The two of them stayed in the space until about two o'clock in the afternoon. Li Ruolan and Deng Minghao had their meal in the space before going out.
There was nothing to do during the winter, so Li Ruolan and Deng Minghao took a nap after class. However, when they were dozing off, they heard a noise coming from next door.
Li Ruolan suddenly sat up with a start. Deng Minghao felt that the warm quilt was suddenly chilled. He shivered and opened his eyes, and saw his wife putting on clothes.
"Hurry, hurry, the fun is coming." Li Ruolan was so excited that she didn't know what Lu Yunxiao would do.
Seeing his wife with shining eyes wanting to eat melons, Deng Minghao had a headache, but this was his wife, his own wife, what else could he do? He could only go along.
When the two walked out of the house, a lot of people had gathered at Qin Wan's house. Almost all the people from the educated youth point had arrived. Even Xu Tao and Guo Xiaoya, who hadn't been seen for a long time, were among the crowd.
When Guo Xiaoya found out that Qin Wan was actually with a cripple, she had only one thought in her mind: disbelief.
She had seen the radiant and charming Qin Wan, and she could not imagine that she would be trapped in this mountain cave and spend the rest of her life with a cripple.
But even though she sighed, Guo Xiaoya had now completely let go of her guard against Qin Wan. After all, she and Xu Tao were now a real couple, and Qin Wan had married this cripple.
When Li Ruolan and Deng Minghao came over, they saw Lu Yunxiao sitting on a stool at the door, with Qin Wan standing beside him. The two of them blocked the door tightly and watched Mrs. Lu rolling around in the yard.
"Second brother! How could you do this? Your eldest brother treats you well and gives you ten yuan every month. How could you report him to the police and have him arrested?"
Faced with Mrs. Lu's hysteria and moral blackmail, Lu Yunxiao remained very calm from beginning to end.
"He gave me ten dollars a month because he took my job quota, and I called the police to arrest him because he deliberately kept me here to help him keep away the wild boars.
Although we are brothers, it was my eldest brother who tried to kill me first. If he could come back and send someone to rescue me, I would not have called the police.
But he did nothing and just waited for me to die. Is he really my elder brother? I always feel that I have a grudge against him and he wants me to die."
“I heard that the Lu family’s brick and tile house was built because Lu Yunxiao sent money to the family every month.
The reason why Lu Yunfei was able to work as a driver for the town’s transport team was because he took over Lu Yunxiao’s job.
It can be said that the Lu family can enjoy such a blessing now because of Lu Yunxiao, but how can Lu Yunfei be so cruel that he actually wants his own brother to die? "
In the crowd, Zhou Shengnan asked the people around her in a low voice. Standing next to her were several old educated youth, including Zheng Hongmei and Li Juhong.
After hearing what Zhou Shengnan said, Li Juhong said, "Who knows? Maybe he feels that Lu Yunxiao's lame leg is a burden, or maybe he feels that the second child is putting pressure on him and the eldest child feels uncomfortable."
Mrs. Lu turned around and glared at them fiercely, then continued to cry and beg Lu Yunxiao.
Seeing that the man looked unwell, Qin Wan quickly said, "You are still pregnant. If you continue to toss and turn in the ice and snow, you may not be able to keep the baby in your belly.
You'd better go back quickly. As for Lu Yunfei's matter, once he admits his mistake at the Public Security Bureau, he will probably just stay in the Northwest Farm for a few years and then come back.
This is not a crime that warrants a bullet, so go back home and stop making noise in my house. It's really annoying."
When Mrs. Lu heard that Lu Yunfei might go to the Northwest Farm for a few years, she felt a darkness before her eyes. Old Mrs. Lu, who was secretly listening outside the crowd, suddenly became anxious and rushed in through the crowd.
"What did you say? My son is going to be sent to the Northwest Farm? No, he can't go! Second brother, are you so cruel that you want your eldest brother to go to the Northwest Farm for reform?"
Lu Yunxiao glanced at his mother coldly. Even though he knew that she was biased, he still felt very uncomfortable.
"You really want Lu Yunfei to be well and don't want them to go to the Northwest Farm for reform, right?"
Old Mrs. Lu nodded repeatedly: "Of course, the family still needs your eldest brother. Now that we have signed the severance agreement, we will naturally not look for you to take care of us in our old age.
If your eldest brother goes to the Northwest Farm, what will happen to the whole family? So he can't go, you should get him released immediately."
Lu Yunxiao nodded: "If you want me to withdraw the case, you can give me my job back. As long as you give me my job back, I will go to the Public Security Bureau in person and tell them that I will not hold Lu Yunfei responsible."
When Mrs. Lu heard this, she immediately understood what was going on. She jumped up from the ground, pointed at Lu Yunxiao's nose and cursed, "So you, a conscienceless person, actually wanted to take over your eldest brother's job!
I tell you it's impossible! That job is ours and we won't give it to you!"
Lu Yunxiao nodded: "Then there is nothing to talk about, you can go."
Mrs. Lu stood there without moving, and just kept pinching Mrs. Lu with her hands. Mrs. Lu stood up and said, "Second brother, that's your eldest brother's job, he has to support the family.
You want his job back. Your leg is like this now and you can't drive, so what do you want it for?"
"It's because my legs are like this now that I want to get my job back. Even if I have to sell it, I can get some money back.
Otherwise, in my current state, I can't work, and I need someone to take care of me when I eat, drink, defecate, and urinate. If I don't have money, why would Qin Zhiqing take care of me?" Lu Yunxiao asked sarcastically.
"If you don't want to give the job back, then give me a thousand dollars and it will be like you bought the job from me.
I have no money for work, and now I am in this state, how can I work? Either you give me work or pay me, otherwise let Lu Yunfei go to the Northwest Farm."
