As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was boiling!
"Uncle Fang! Me, me, me!"
"Lao Fang, how much money can you make?"
Fang Zhiyi stretched out his hand to suppress them, signaling them to be quiet, then stretched out his hand to make a slap gesture and flipped it back and forth.
"One thousand?" a villager asked with wide eyes. One thousand is not a small amount. You know, it costs less than one thousand to buy a grown girl.
Fang Zhiyi glanced at him and said, "Didn't you see me look through it? Starting at 10,000! Every month!"
The whole audience was shocked.
Fang Zhiyi then gestured to Mei Lanju to take out a thick envelope. She opened it and showed it, which contained a stack of cash!
The news spread, and everyone knew that the boy from the Fang family who went out to study had made great progress and was still thinking about his fellow villagers.
Those who had been skeptical had now dispelled their suspicions. Their minds were occupied by greed and that stack of red bills. Who cares about that female college student? Didn't they see how close she was to Fang Dagang? Besides, there was still Fang Zhiyi in the old Fang family. If anything went wrong, he would be the one to settle the score.
On the day the three of them left, the villagers lined the streets to see them off. Mei Lanju turned around and looked at Fang Zhiyi, her eyes full of deep meaning.
Xue, who was standing in the crowd, watched Shen Ni leave, and the resentment in her heart was aroused for a moment, but thinking that her mother-in-law was still waiting for her to come back home to cook, she gritted her teeth and turned to leave.
Somehow, gossip about the Fang family's daughter-in-law has been circulating in the village these days. It is said that she is infertile and is used to threaten the Fang family. However, these rumors are only spread among the women who were abducted and sold here. The native residents of the village will not believe them, and they don't want to offend the Fang family.
Fang Zhiyi probably knew who was spreading the rumor and just thought it was ridiculous.
"Old Fang! Phone call!" Someone came to call Fang Zhiyi, and they were very excited. "It's your spouse calling! Hurry up!" They were more excited than anyone else, and four people came to call Fang Zhiyi.
Fang Zhiyi walked to the store at the entrance of the village and answered the phone.
"Hello, it's me."
"How's yours?"
"I'm waiting for your news." Fang Zhiyi smiled and waved to the people surrounding him.
"About two days. I've already sent that girl back home, so I specifically asked her not to talk about it for now."
"Yeah, okay, where's Dagang?"
"Him? He's making money, a lot of money!" Mei Lanju leisurely took a bite of the ice cream in her hand, looking at the construction site not far away. When she came out, she had discussed with Fang Zhiyi, and felt that Fang Dagang should be helped if possible, and if not, he should be humanely destroyed. So when they arrived in the city, they sent him directly to the construction site. Fang Dagang didn't want to work anymore after working for a day, but he couldn't beat his mother, so he had to go to work crying the next day.
Fang Dagang had thought about escaping, running back to the village, but no matter where he ran, Mei Lanju would find him, whether it was on the street, in the park, or even at the bus station. It was as if Mei Lanju had installed a locator on him.
For the first time, Fang Dagang felt what those girls in the village who wanted to escape felt.
Moreover, he was beaten in the street, and the passers-by stopped caring after they knew that Mei Lanju was his mother. Coupled with Mei Lanju's crying, they turned around and accused him of being unfilial.
"How much can it hurt if an old lady hits you?" they said.
Fang Dagang had a lot of grievances in his heart but couldn't say it, so he had to accept his fate and work from morning to night every day. He didn't know what his mother had said to the foreman, but the work assigned to him was always the most tiring.
