"Woo woo woo, you bully me too!"
Zhou Xiaoya's crying was like a river about to burst, which made Ye Tian a little panicked.
"Little aunt, don't cry. It's late at night. If someone sees you, they will think I really bullied you."
“Stop crying!”
Ye Tian wanted to comfort her, but Zhou Xiaoya cried even more.
"If I don't serve as a courtesy to the Han family, should I serve as a courtesy to you?"
"It's all etiquette, woooo!"
"What etiquette? You are Xiaomi's mother, you are the hostess!"
"What?"
The crying stopped, and a blush instantly enveloped Zhou Xiaoya.
Zhou Xiaoya's face flushed red and she didn't dare to look at Ye Tian.
In the darkness, ripples appeared on the river surface again. The chirping of insects seemed to disappear. Instead, the sound of heartbeats and breathing could be heard.
Ye Tian was also stunned. Did he say something wrong just now?
"You, don't talk nonsense!"
"Ye Tian, don't do this!"
"Xiaoya, listen to me and let me explain!"
Whatever Ye Tianyue said, Zhou Xiaoya became even more panicked. She quickly stood up, covering her face, and headed towards the village office.
"Anyway, you are not allowed to go. Come to my house on the eighth day of the new year!"
Ye Tian shouted again.
Zhou Xiaoya didn't even look back and started jogging.
“That’s pretty fast!”
Ye Tian sighed, but did not stand up. Instead, he said to the riverbank: "Village chief, it's not good for you to eavesdrop at your age."
Ye Tian had already discovered that Zhou Xiaoya was being followed all the way.
It was in the riverbank ditch, Zhang Quan had been there all along.
What Ye Tian said just now was for Zhang Quan to hear.
"Village chief, be careful. If you fall into the ditch, no one will rescue you." Ye Tian said again.
Zhang Quan also knew that he had been discovered, and walked out with a forced smile.
"Ye Tian, I was just passing by, coming back from a meeting."
"Han Tongshan, did you do this?"
Ye Tian looked at Zhang Quan again. The Han family was going to hold a ceremony and invited so many people, even the entire village. This was deliberately targeting Ye Tian.
"Xiao Ye, actually, there are some things that we should talk about openly."
Zhang Quan took out a cigarette from his pocket and started smoking.
"You've been a soldier, you've seen the world, and you can fight."
"Now we have the golden pear, but you must understand that a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake."
"Lotus Township, or the surname Han."
"You are so unwise to offend the old village chief."
"Ha ha!"
Ye Tian smiled, seeing that Zhang Quan was still the same.
"Why is Lianhua Township named Han?"
"What he did was sell the land and betray the interests of the farmers. Over the years, the fish ponds, coal mines, and forest land in Lianhua Township were all sold by Han Tongshan."
"Ye Tian, you are talking nonsense!"
Zhang Quan glared at Ye Tian, wondering how Ye Tian knew all this.
Zhang Quan threw away the cigarette butt and looked around, afraid that others would hear him.
"Feeling guilty? Looks like you're involved as well."
"Fenghuang Village has a great geographical location. If it develops well, it will definitely become prosperous."
"And you?"
“Village chief, I hope you understand that as the village chief, you serve the people, not the Han family.”
"Ye Tian, you are too presumptuous. Why don't you understand?"
"When the ceremony is about to begin, the village chief will invite distinguished guests, and even the Yang family from the city will come. How can a villager like you fight against the Han family?"
"You think you're powerful just because you beat Han Biao a few times."
"You are wrong. This will only lead to your eternal damnation."
"The village chief's connections are enough to completely block you."
"Okay, then I'll wait for you to ban me!"
"Zhou Xiaoya, it's impossible for her to be a hostess."
"If she doesn't follow etiquette, she can never hope to be the branch secretary."
"Yeah?"
Ye Tian didn't need to waste any more time. Without even looking at Zhang Quan, he turned around and went back to the wooden house.
"Bah, what a thing, you will regret it sooner or later."
"By then, the whole village will know that your Ye family has been isolated. Nothing good will happen to anyone who follows you, Ye Tian."
"We'll see."
"You still want to celebrate your daughter's birthday. That day will be the ugliest day for your Ye family!"
Zhang Quan cursed a few more times, turned around and left.
Ye Tian didn't even turn his head. As soon as he arrived at the wooden house, he saw that the workers had already started to leave work.
"Brother Ye, just sort it out tomorrow and it will be done."
"How about this cabin?"
Qi Ling wiped the sweat off her face. She had lost weight due to working overtime.
Ye Tian looked at the wooden house, which had been turned into a yard. There were both front and back yards, fenced with special materials, and in particular, a strange nest was left in the backyard.
"Thank you. Looks like it will be fine tomorrow."
"The electrical appliances will arrive tomorrow, please ask the electrician to turn it on then."
"no problem!"
"Brother Ye, can I ask you a favor?" Qi Ling felt embarrassed, and the other workers were also a little embarrassed.
"Speak!"
"Can we buy some golden pears? These pears are really delicious. They can restore the workers' physical strength."
"Haha, buy whatever you want. Come tomorrow and I'll pick ten kilograms for each of you."
"Really? That's great, thank you Mr. Ye!"
The workers also smiled naively. They had not expected Ye Tian to be so generous. They all knew that the city had been selling golden pears these days, with a price of 500 yuan per catty, a sky-high price.
