Shang Tian stepped aside to let them into the house before coldly asking, "What do you want?"
"right."
"Is it urgent?"
"Um."
"Were you the one laughing loudly in front of my house this morning?"
"yes."
After a moment, Li Zai realized what he had said. "Young Master, please let me explain. I..."
Before he could finish speaking, Shang Tian said, "Run ten laps around the village first, then come and talk to me."
"Young Master..."
"Twelve laps."
"I......"
"Fifteen laps, do you want to run or not? If you don't, we'll add more."
"I'm running, running!" Li Zai dared not continue talking to the Great Demon King Shang Tian and obediently went out to run laps.
Li Xi looked at his own father, sweating profusely in the sunlight, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He had told his father not to be so naughty and playful, but his father wouldn't listen. Now look what happened, he's being punished.
Shang Tian looked at Li Xi, who was acting like a little adult, and raised an eyebrow. "You're the one who wanted to see me today, right?"
Li Xi nodded and said bluntly, "Son-in-law, I want to manage the granary."
"Um?"
Seeing that Shang Tian did not immediately refute, Li Xi knew that there was hope. "I can do math, maybe not as fast as Wu Weisheng, but I have no ulterior motives."
Shang Tian toyed with the teacup in his hand and looked at Li Xi, "Why do you think Wu Weisheng has ulterior motives?"
“I don’t know why, but none of us believe him.” He leaned closer to Shang Tian and whispered, “We all think he’s strange.”
Shang Tian didn't treat Li Xi like a child and asked very seriously, "What's so strange about it?"
If Wu Weisheng really has a problem, then he cannot be allowed to live.
Li Xi shook her head, "I can't say."
"How can I believe you if you just talk the talk?" Shang Tian looked at Li Xi, expecting him to say something else.
The Shang family is really short-staffed.
Although the villagers are trustworthy, they are all ordinary villagers who cannot read or write. It would be far-fetched to ask them to do anything.
"I won't lie." Li Xi looked into Shang Tian's eyes and said very seriously, "Although I have no evidence, I won't lie."
Shang Tian smiled, stood up, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Go run a couple of laps with your father, and I'll let you and Wu Weisheng manage the accounts together."
"I'm sure I can finish the race." Li Xi stood up, her little face puffed out, and walked out of the Shang family's gate.
They walked towards the village wall.
Su Qian looked at Li Xi's figure and pointed at Shang Tian, saying, "You are abusing children."
Shang Tianyi grasped her fingers and said, "Then why didn't you say so just now?"
"Because I need to save face for you."
Shang Tian was slightly taken aback; he hadn't expected Su Qian to say such a thing.
He always thought she was just too lazy to talk about it.
Shang Tian sighed, pulled her into his arms, and whispered, "A Qian, how can you be so adorable?"
He gently kissed her forehead. "Now that Ji Zhou has nothing to worry about, I'll stay with you every day from now on, okay?"
Su Qian was slightly taken aback. "Don't you want the entire continent anymore?"
Shang Tian shook his head. "Too tired."
Even in such a small village with so few people, everyone has their own thoughts and intentions.
He works himself to the bone, why?
If Xiao Lin were to attack him now, he wouldn't stand a chance. It would be better to deal with the internal troubles first.
If he is truly unsuitable for that position, then let a truly capable and ambitious leader take it.
All he wanted was a peaceful life, and for Xiao Lin to die without a proper burial.
