Chapter 45: Remember to pay me back double if you work for me

When Jiang Tang said this, Liu Lan didn't say anything. Liu Guohui immediately pulled his sister's sleeve and said with a smile, "Lan'er, sister-in-law is a good person. She didn't make things difficult for you. You should apologize quickly."

He really thought Jiang Tang was a good person, and was deliberately making things difficult for himself, so he just asked his sister to apologize.

Little did they know that what Liu Lan hated most was calling Jiang Tang sister-in-law.

When he heard Jiang Tang say this, he held his mouth and was unwilling to speak.

Liu Guohui was so anxious that he wanted to curse, "Lan'er, your sister-in-law didn't make it difficult for you at all, so don't force me, your brother, to curse."

He tugged at Liu Lan's sleeve again, but she pulled away.

Liu Lan stared at Jiang Tang and squeezed out these words from between her teeth, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I was wrong."

After saying this, she started to cry and was about to run away, but was grabbed by Liu Guohui, who shouted through a loud speaker,

"What are you talking about? It's your fault in the first place. Speak louder."

Liu Lan was dragged by her brother and couldn't run away. She raised her voice in frustration, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, it's my fault."

Liu Guohui was satisfied, and looked at Jiang Tang with a smile, "Sister-in-law, look, Lei Zi and the others are waiting at home."

Jiang Tang stared at Liu Lan, who looked unhappy but had no position at all, tilted his head to look at the man next to him, Qin Xiao, and raised his eyebrows, "Call Chu Yang, and go together."

Liu Guohui dragged Liu Lan in front, while Jiang Tang and Qin Xiao walked behind. She held Qin Chuyang and looked at Qin Xiao with some confusion, "Qin Xiao, I remember he seems to be older than you, why does he also call you Brother Xiao?"

She usually calls Lu Fang sister-in-law when she sees her.

Qin Xiao had no expression on his face and said in a low voice, "They can't beat me."

It turns out to be so simple. Jiang Tang's lips curled up. It turns out that this "brother" relies on suppression by force.

This title really varies from person to person.

A group of people walked to Liu's yard.

When Wang Qilei and the others saw Jiang Tang coming, they smiled and went to greet him.

"Sister-in-law, you are here."

Jiang Tang didn't expect that they would protect him first even in front of his brothers. With a smile on his face, he nodded slightly.

Finally, the person was invited and Lu Fang breathed a sigh of relief.

Invited a group of people to sit at the table.

At the dinner table, Liu Guohui picked up his wine glass and apologized to Jiang Tang again.

"Sister-in-law, thank you for your generosity."

Otherwise, he would have had a falling out with his brothers as soon as he came back, and there would be no way to deal with it.

Jiang Tang glanced at the man next to him and shook his head slightly.

No matter what, they are Qin Xiao's best brothers, and there is no need for her to be angry about Liu Lan's mistakes.

The dinner table began to heat up.

Wang Qilei smiled and said, "Brother Guohui, are you really going to quit your job and never return to the army again?"

Liu Guohui smiled and nodded, "There's nothing to deceive you about this."

At this point he looked at Qin Xiao and said, "That's perfect. You guys are going to build a factory, so I'll definitely help if I can."

He smiled and said, "It's just within the rules and it's convenient."

Qin Xiao nodded and said calmly, "Just do business as usual."

Liu Guohui nodded, "I know."

He looked at Jiang Tang beside him and said to Qin Xiao, "Brother Xiao, when did you and sister-in-law get married? What's going on?"

His words made Jiang Tang look up at him, then turned his head to stare at Qin Xiao, wanting to know how he would answer.

Qin Xiao stared at the woman beside him with his dark eyes, and said calmly, "Not long ago."

"The Jiang family was worried about marrying Jiang Cui off to the city, and they had nothing to offer me. It just so happens that she was sent back, so it's a win-win situation."

"This Jiang family is really a piece of shit." He frowned, "But brother Xiao, Jiang Cui is not a good person. I think my sister-in-law is pretty good."

Qin Xiao responded quietly, acknowledging what he said.

His response made Liu Guohui realize that this was not only good, but very good.

The brothers were reminiscing about the past as the conversation drew to a close.

Qin Xiao suddenly spoke up, staring at Liu Guohui, and said in a low voice, "How old is your sister this year?"

As soon as he said this, everyone stared at him.

Liu Lan, who was eating with her head buried, heard Qin Xiao ask this. She looked up suddenly, feeling sad. Brother Qin Xiao, you don’t even know how old she is.

Liu Guohui was also stunned, "Eighteen."

Qin Xiao said calmly, "As her brother, you should consider her personal problems."

This means that Liu Guohui wants to find a partner for Liu Lan.

Uneducated people in the village always find a partner quickly, and there are many people getting married at the age of 18.

Liu Guohui didn't expect that Qin Xiao actually cared about her sister's relationship, so he smiled and nodded.

"That's right. I will definitely help her check it."

After Qin Xiao finished speaking, he stopped talking and put a piece of meat into Jiang Tang's bowl. Seeing the little girl staring at him blankly, he said in a gentle tone, "Not to your liking?"

Jiang Tang immediately shook his head, blinked, glanced at Liu Lan who was probably crying with her head buried, and then glanced at Qin Xiao beside him.

This man is really awesome. The person he likes tells him to find a partner right in front of him.

A lethal explosion.

She stared at Qin Xiao, not knowing whether he knew that the girl liked him. However, Qin Xiao was sure that this man did not like Liu Lan at all.

So cruel.

Liu Lan must be heartbroken. Jiang Tang thought leisurely and was in a good mood.

Then she silently ate the food the man handed over to her.

After the event, the group went home together.

At the Liu family, the two elders of the Liu family had already gone to bed, and Liu Guohui called Liu Lan to his and Lu Fang's room.

He stared at Liu Lan and said, "Tell me, why do you want to embarrass your sister-in-law?"

Liu Lan's eyes were swollen from crying, but she didn't say a word.

Liu Guohui sighed, "During the time when I was away, Xiao brother helped our family so much. You said it yourself, you don't have the slightest bit of gratitude in your heart."

"I have it!" Liu Lan raised her head and shouted loudly.

Liu Guohui was also annoyed, "You are. Brother Xiao finally found a wife, but you treat him like this!"

"Can't you see how much Qin Xiao likes his wife?"

"Brother Qin Xiao doesn't like her." Liu Lan retorted, holding her breath.

Liu Guohui was so angry that he laughed, "Qin Xiao doesn't like his wife?"

He pointed at his nose and said, "I, your brother! I just came back today. I just met my sister-in-law for the first time, and I can see that Xiao Ge treasures his wife. You told me that he doesn't like his wife. You are really blind."

"If you just ask around, ask your sister-in-law, ask your brother Lei Zi, and then ask He Tian, ​​who the hell can't see that Brother Xiao likes his wife!"

Liu Lan felt like she was going crazy. Why did everyone around her say that?

What's so good about Jiang Tang? She is a woman who will definitely run away.

She said loudly, "Jiang Tang is from the capital, and she will return to the capital one day. She will not stay in a small place like ours for the rest of her life."

Liu Guohui was so angry that he laughed, "Don't you know what your brother Qin Xiao is doing now?"

"Why did he open this factory? You think he really wants to stay here and contribute to our place."

"Do you think Brother Xiao is really that great?"

Liu Lan wiped her tears and said, "Isn't it?"

By then Jiang Tang will return to the capital. Brother Qin Xiao’s factory is built here, so where can he go?

Liu Guohui really wanted to pry open his sister's head to see what was inside.

"When he was planning to do business, the first route he chose was the capital! It's not obvious enough, he is always ready to go to the capital. If my sister-in-law goes back to the capital, he will go too."

Staring at his sister's buried head, Liu Guohui sighed, "Okay, you can't tell, right? I'll find you a partner as soon as possible and see if you can tell."

Now that he's back, it's time to think about it.

Liu Lan was so upset that she couldn't express it, she just buried her head and cried.

Lu Fang stared at her sister-in-law without saying a word. Anyway, her brother was back now, and she didn't want to care about what happened in the future.

On the other side, a group of people were walking back to their homes together.

Wang Qilei looked at Jiang Tang, "Sister-in-law, please don't worry about our brotherly relationship."

"It was Liu Lan who first ignored the relationship between her brother and us. If she does it on the first day, you should do it on the fifteenth day."

"They will know they are wrong only after they have been taught a lesson."

Jiang Tang looked at him with a smile, "I'm very happy that you can protect me, and I'm not angry anymore."

Wang Qilei touched his head and said, "Sister-in-law, you are so good to us. If we are really heartless and eat with him without caring about your feelings, we are really ungrateful."

Zhang Hetian also nodded and said, "Sister-in-law, if we really had this meal when you were not here, Xiao Ge would probably not want to talk to us anymore."

"No one is like this as a brother. We can tell right from wrong."

If they really didn't care about such obvious dislike and exclusion, then all these years of being brothers would have been in vain, and all the kindness Jiang Tang had shown them would have been in vain.

Jiang Tang smiled and stared at the man next to her, feeling good.

It can be said that his brothers are not in vain.

Return home.

Qin Xiao rekindled the fire that had not yet been completely extinguished and filled the pot with hot water.

Jiang Tang sat next to Qin Xiao, staring at him with his dark eyes, "When can we sign the contract for the non-cultivated land?"

Now that Liu Guohui is back, things should go more smoothly.

Qin Xiao said in a deep voice, "It will take a few days to sort out the contract."

Jiang Tang nodded. "Once the contract is signed, can we start construction?"

Qin Xiao nodded, "Well, when the factory is built, we will have to go to Pengcheng and transport all the equipment over."

Jiang Tang nodded.

The water quickly heated up. Jiang Tang took a shower first, then dried his hair and went back to his room.

Qin Xiao brought Qin Chuyang into the house after a while.

Jiang Tang tilted his head to look at the two brothers and yawned, "Turn off the lights."

Then slowly close your eyes.

Qin Xiao was stunned for a moment, turned off the lights, went to bed, and slept next to Jiang Tang. In the darkness, a man's voice was heard.

"Leizi is right, don't worry about our brotherly relationship."

Jiang Tang was stunned for a moment, and whispered, "What if I really don't go, don't eat this meal, and don't accept Liu Lan's apology, what are you going to do?"

After a while, the man's voice came, "If he doesn't even have this much tolerance and lets his sister do whatever she wants, then this brother is useless."

Jiang Tang felt a warm feeling in her heart. She turned sideways and could barely see the man's strong outline in the darkness.

"Qin Xiao."

"Um?"

Jiang Tang blinked, stared at the man, and whispered, "You...are a pretty good person."

Qin Xiao: ...

The man sneered and didn't answer her.

Jiang Tang's heart tightened, he blinked lightly, turned over and lay on his back on the bed, then curled his lips slightly and slowly closed his eyes.

After a while, she fell asleep and didn't know how she rolled into the man's arms.

Qin Xiao held the soft jade in his arms with his strong arms, then slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The next morning, Jiang Tang got up, yawned, and went out. He saw the man at the door, "Qin Xiao, why didn't you go to the city?"

Qin Xiao sawed the firewood and said coldly, "I will go to the city in the afternoon."

Jiang Tang walked over and said, "You can't do this. Can Lei Zi handle this business by himself?"

Qin Xiao twitched the corners of his lips, "I went to help him before, but he chased me back."

She said she could do it, and asked him to come back to be with his wife because he was a nuisance.

Jiang Tang blinked.

Qin Xiao said in a deep voice, "After the contract is signed in a few days, I will be busy."

He stared at the little girl with an inexplicable look, "When the time comes, you and Chuyang will be at home, and you won't be able to see me."

This is a weird thing to say...

Jiang Tang frowned, and Qin Chuyang beside him immediately raised his voice, "Brother, I can go to see you with my sister-in-law, so I won't miss you."

After the young man said this, Qin Xiao's eyes also fell on Jiang Tang.

Jiang Tang blinked, raised her eyes and met the man's gaze. She turned her head away and said, "Well, Chu Yang is right."

She pursed her lips gently and said, "I gave you money, but I am the largest shareholder. I used to supervise you and I was afraid that you would be lazy."

A smile appeared in the man's eyes, and he continued with his work.

“Bang, bang, bang.”

"Is Comrade Jiang Tang here? Your package."

Jiang Tang turned to look at the courtyard door, and he felt something in his heart, and whispered, "I guess my adoptive parents sent it to me."

Jiang Tang sighed and walked over to open the door.

Qin Xiao stared at the little girl's burdened face and frowned slightly.

Jiang Tang opened the door and found that the postman at the door was already familiar with her.

He handed the package to her with a smile. Jiang Tang said goodbye with a smile, then came back with the package, put it on the table, rested his hand on the table, supported his cheek, and looked worried.

He stared at the package in front of him dejectedly, not wanting to open it.

Seeing the little girl's listless look, Xing Yan frowned, put down his work, walked over to the little girl who was almost paralyzed on the table, and whispered, "Why don't you look?"

Jiang Tang looked up at him, sighed heavily, and said honestly, "I don't want their things."

The girl said in a low voice, "Not at all."

Qin Xiao sat next to the little girl, frowning, "If you don't want it, don't sign for it. Wait for him to return it."

After a few more times, the other party will know what the little girl means and will probably stop sending it.

Jiang Tang blinked and shook his head, "Will they feel sad about this?"

Qin Xiao's dark eyes revealed a faint smile, and he whispered, "Then open it and take a look."

"Estimate the value and send them something as well."

The little girl was very soft-hearted and couldn't bear to do it, so she had to think of another way.

Jiang Tang stood up, thought for a moment, and gave the man a thumbs up, "Qin Xiao, you are so smart!"

She didn't want to have too much to do with the original owner's adoptive parents, nor did she want to ask for many benefits in the name of the original owner, and she didn't want their things.

But after all, this body belongs to the original owner. If she does something too drastic, her adoptive parents will definitely be sad.

But if she gives back what she got in exchange for something else, that's fine too.

Jiang Tang looked at Qin Xiao with a frown and said with a smile, "I'll think about what I can give them."

Qin Xiao said calmly, "Well, okay, now you can open it and see what's inside."

Jiang Tang smiled and nodded.

Then unpack it little by little.

Then I saw the things inside, a letter and some clothes next to it.

Jiang Tang blinked, opened the letter, and took out the papers inside. She did not touch the remaining money.

Jiang Tang read the letter word by word, then slowly became afraid to look at the man next to her and pursed her lips lightly.

This letter was written by Zhou's mother, and large parts of it were all persuading her to return to the capital.

She said the environment here was bad, the man she married was not a good one, and she was afraid that she would go too far away. It was because of Qin Xiao's intimidation that she dared not run away.

Noticing the man's gaze on the letter, Jiang Tang swallowed softly and moved his fingertips, trying to close the letter.

A pair of rough hands held Jiang Tang's hands and stopped her from moving.

Qin Xiao finished reading the letter that Zhou's mother wrote to the little girl, sneered softly, and stared at the little girl with his black eyes.

Jiang Tang touched his nose, raised his eyes to look at the man, and said in a light voice, "They have never seen you in person. You know, sometimes words and language are cold and emotionless. There is no way to get an accurate answer to many things. Only after they see you in person can they look at you normally."

Staring at the little girl's nervous expression, Qin Xiao whispered, "Yeah."

Jiang Tang blinked and looked at the man in surprise.

This man wasn't angry at Zhou's mother's malicious assumptions?!

Seeing that the man really didn't seem angry and had no expression on his face, Jiang Tang silently put away the letter and put it back into the envelope.

"You're not angry?"

The little girl looked very proud. Qin Xiao smiled faintly, "You are right. Only after meeting them in the future can they know me correctly."

This guy has such a bad face, but he is quite generous. Jiang Tang put the new letter into the envelope and was about to fold it.

Then I accidentally saw something that looked different from money.

She pulled the things out.

When you see clearly what it is, squeeze it quickly.

But the man still saw it.

Seeing Qin Xiao's indifferent expression, Jiang Tang silently unfolded the ticket in his hand and gave Qin Xiao a flattering smile.

"Haha, I must have put it in there accidentally."

Qin Xiao took the ticket from the little girl and whispered, "What a waste."

He looked at Jiang Tang, "When do you want to return to the capital?"

Jiang Tang touched his head and said, "Not yet."

Qin Xiao put the ticket away and said "hmm".

Staring at the ticket that could never be returned, Jiang Tang was angry but dared not say anything.

Well, anyway, she really had no plans to go back now, so the ticket was really useless.

"No... I didn't expect them to send the tickets."

Qin Xiao raised his eyebrows. He had not expected this, but he was not surprised when he saw it. There was not a single good word about him in the pages filled with papers from Zhou's father and mother. It was too obvious that they wanted to take his wife away.

Jiang Tang put everything except the plane ticket in Qin Xiao's hand into the room.

After leaving the room, he looked at Qin Xiao and said, "Tomorrow I want to go to the county town to buy some things and see if there is anything in Pengcheng that can be sent to the capital."

Qin Xiao held the ticket in his hand and nodded slightly, "I'll go with you."

Jiang Tang blinked, "Aren't you busy these two days?"

Seeing the man shaking his head, Jiang Tang could only agree, staring at Qin Xiao with a frown, "If you are busy, go do it yourself. I can go by myself."

Qin Xiao's expression was calm, "I'll accompany you."

Jiang Tang shrugged and said, "Okay."

The next day, the couple went to the city together. Jiang Tang really didn't know what could be sent from Pengcheng.

It's no use asking the man next to you.

Jiang Tang slumped his shoulders, but still bought some food, and then, like adoptive parents, he also bought them clothes in return.

After returning home, Jiang Tang started making the beef jerky, cucumber chili sauce and meat sauce that he had made before.

The dried cucumbers are still there. After she finishes making the beef jerky and meat sauce, she will send the stuff over.

After a few days, Qin Xiao was going to the city again, and Jiang Tang also happened to be going to send something to Zhou's father and mother.

The two of them went into the city together.

After entering the city, Jiang Tang asked Qin Xiao to sign the contract first, and she would go to the post office by herself.

The man insisted on accompanying her to the post office. In order not to waste time, Jiang Tang compromised and the two went to the post office together.

Jiang Tang sent the package over.

Then he accompanied Qin Xiao to sign the contract.

The contract signing process went smoothly.

After coming back, Qin Xiao's usually cold face had a smile on it.

Jiang Tang took the contract from the man's rag bag, and Qin Xiao let her hold it and look at it.

Jiang Tang read it carefully word by word, but didn't see any problems.

He handed the contract to Qin Xiao and whispered, "You will have to get busy from now on."

“How long do you estimate it will take to build the factory?”

Qin Xiao said in a deep voice, "It will be difficult to develop non-cultivated land with manpower. We need to contact an excavator. The excavator can open up the area in about three days. After the foundation is dug, the next step is to hire workers to build the house."

Jiang Tang nodded with a vague understanding.

The next morning, Qin Xiao got up. Jiang Tang blinked and stared at the man changing clothes in the room. He muttered, "Qin Xiao, are you going to hire an excavator master today?"

Qin Xiao lowered his eyes and stared at the little girl, nodding slightly, "Yeah."

Jiang Tang held his hands and looked up at Qin Xiao, "I want to go with you."

She wanted to see how excavators worked. She had seen them before, but had never observed them up close.

Qin Xiao stared at the curiosity in the little girl's confused eyes and sighed, "I'll wait for you at the door."

Does this mean you agree?!

Jiang Tang immediately propped herself up and stood up, quickly climbed over the kid and climbed off the bed, then casually tied her hair into a ponytail and was about to walk out the door.

"Sister-in-law, where are you going?" On the bed behind me, the little guy rubbed his eyes and his voice was vague.

Jiang Tang paused, turned around and looked at Qin Chuyang who was staring at her with his eyes wide open, and inexplicably felt guilty.

"Hey, Chuyang, my sister-in-law and brother are going to work."

Qin Chuyang got up and said softly, "Sister-in-law, can Chuyang go with us?"

Jiang Tang's heart melted at the sound and expression, and she couldn't refuse at all.

Thinking that Qin Xiao was still waiting for Jiang Tang at the door, he did not hesitate, "If Chuyang wants to go, he should get up immediately, put on his shoes and we will leave."

"I can't keep my brother waiting any longer."

"Um!"

The boy immediately jumped out of bed, put on his shoes, and then took Jiang Tang's hand. He looked like he really wanted to go.

The lazy look he had before is gone now, he is full of energy.

Jiang Tang rubbed the boy's head and quickly led him out the door.

Qin Xiao, who was in the yard, saw a group of two people, one big and one small, coming out together, and said nothing.

Jiang Tang stuck out her tongue. In order not to let Qin Xiao wait for her, she quickly took Qin Chuyang to wash up, then stood in front of the man and shouted, "Let's go!"

Staring at the girl's impatient look, Qin Xiao had a barely perceptible smile on his expressionless face. He nodded slightly and took the girl out.

The family of three went out together.

Jiang Tang sat on a rock, staring at the excavator in operation in amazement.

He held his chin in his hand and looked lost in thought.

The light in the eyes of the little guy next to her was brighter than hers. He stared at the excavator without blinking, unable to move at all. He seemed to like it very much.

Jiang Tang shifted his gaze and looked at Qin Xiao who was working beside the excavator with instructions. He stared at the man's methodical instructions and gradually became fascinated.

Qin Chuyang looked at the powerful excavator with his chin lowered, tilted his head to look at Jiang Tang, his face full of determination, "Sister-in-law, I want to drive a big machine in the future!"

"Great!"

The young man was completely fascinated by the excavator. Jiang Tang turned around and hooked the young man's nose with a smile, "Okay, when Chuyang drives the big machine, I will take my sister-in-law to sit for a ride."

Qin Chuyang nodded obediently, "Brother and sister-in-law, please sit down."

Jiang Tang touched the boy's head and turned to look at the machine at work.

It looks like it's pretty much the same as Qin Xiao said. The land can be developed in about three days, and then it will take a few more days to dig the foundation. After that, it will be easy to hire workers.

Jiang Tang and Qin Chuyang went to look at the excavators for a whole day. By the second day, Jiang Tang had lost interest. The young man really wanted to go, but he didn't want to cause trouble for his brother and disturb his work, so he didn't go the next day either.

For the next two days, Qin Xiao went to supervise the work by himself, while Jiang Tang stayed at home with Qin Chuyang.

When Jiang Tang took Qin Chuyang to buy clothes and was helping the little boy try on clothes, she suddenly remembered that she seemed to have bought things for Zhou's father and mother, but not for the little boy.

Jiang Tang blinked, feeling a little helpless. There was no way to remedy the situation now. He could only remember to include the little guy next time.

I hope that this time Zhou’s father and mother will not misunderstand and think that she is still resentful.

capital.

Zhou family.

Zhou's mother was sitting on the sofa, holding Zhou An in her arms.

She had just received the express package sent by Jiang Tang, and before she had time to open it, Zhou An in the small room started crying.

She carried the child into the living room and the little guy stopped crying immediately.

Mother Zhou put her son aside, and the kid was clinging to her.

She finally had time to open the package.

As soon as she opened it, she saw the gifts that the lady had given to her and her man.

Zhou's mother tried the clothes her daughter bought on herself, then put them on and found that they fit her well.

These were chosen by Jiang Tang for her adoptive parents based on the original owner's memory, completely out of the blue.

Mother Zhou put on the clothes her daughter bought, and then put her man's clothes aside, which the little boy grabbed and played with.

She stared at the tightly packed contents in the package, took a knife from the kitchen, and opened the tightly packed contents.

She stared at the things inside. They were several boxes of hot sauce. Why did her daughter buy this for her?

Zhou's mother was a little confused, and then she saw the small cakes next to them. These should have been bought for them by the young lady.

Finally, she picked up the letter and read it carefully word by word. Then she stared at the hot sauce and cupcakes in the package, with mist in her eyes.

These were all made by their daughters themselves.

In the evening, Zhou's father came back.

Zhou's mother has already prepared the dishes and chopsticks.

He sat at the table and whispered, "Where's my son?"

Mother Zhou said softly, "He fell asleep."

The couple sat down, and Zhou's mother looked at her husband and said, "Let's eat."

Father Zhou stared at the bowl of hot sauce on the dining table and frowned, "Why are you thinking about eating hot sauce today?"

There are also small cakes next to it, which look good.

Zhou's mother picked up a piece of cucumber chili sauce and put it in his bowl, "Try it."

Father Zhou was puzzled, but he listened to his wife and took a bite of the rice. Then his eyes widened suddenly, and he glanced at Mother Zhou and said with a smile, "It's really fresh. Where did you buy it? It tastes good."

Mother Zhou was touched and distressed, "This was sent by our daughter."

Father Zhou was stunned. "Did the girl send it?"

Mother Zhou nodded and continued, "The package was delivered today. They bought a piece of clothing for you and me, and also sent some homemade hot sauce and small cakes."

Father Zhou nodded, then he glared at Mother Zhou and said, "What did you say? These things were made by our daughter?!"

Zhou's mother nodded, "Yes, the letter the young lady wrote said that she did it herself."

Father Zhou stared at the delicious chili sauce in front of him and the small cake on the table and sighed.

"Since it was made by our daughter, I should at least have two bowls of rice with me."

Feeling relieved and distressed, Zhou's father took a bite of rice, but...the lady's cooking skills are really good.

It took Qin Xiao several more days to complete the foundation of the factory. Now all he had to do was hire workers.

Jiang Tang looked up at the man and whispered, "Should we hire workers in the village, or should we hire them directly from the surrounding villages, or go to the city?"

This is a bit difficult.

Qin Xiao said coldly, "Let's hire people from the village first. If there are not enough people, we can find other workers."

The man whispered, "Before we built the factory in the county town, many people in the village were not satisfied. Now we are hiring people to work, so we will hire people from the village first. If no one is willing to come, we will hire people from other places."

Give a big slap in the face and a sweet date, so that you won't be troubled by others in the future.

Jiang Tang nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

In the evening, Qin Xiao went out and looked for help from house to house.

Jiang Tang sighed. This was how life was in the village. Even if you did your job fairly and got paid well, you still had to hire people to help you.

There is no guarantee that the person who was not invited will not complain.

She wanted to leave the village more and more.

Qin Xiao was out for nearly two hours before returning.

Jiang Tang went forward and frowned, "How is it going? Is it going well? Are there any people willing to help?"

Qin Xiao sat on a stool, listening to the little girl's questions one after another, his black eyes slightly raised, "Seven or eight people in the village have agreed, we just need to find a few more people ourselves."

Jiang Tang breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at Qin Xiao and asked, "You went to invite them. Did you feel embarrassed?"

Jiang Tang said so, but she thought about it and felt it was impossible. She just opened a small workshop at home, but many people in the village were weird about her. She never thought about the village in everything she did and had no sense of collective honor.

Qin Xiao wants to set up a factory, which will be much larger than hers in the future, but he hasn't set it up in the village yet. People will definitely talk about him.

Qin Xiao whispered, "It's okay."

It's okay, I just got told off. There are so many people in Wuli Village, but only seven or eight people agreed to help.

I guess everyone hoped that Qin Xiao wouldn't do it.

Although the people in many places are simple and honest, and everyone helps each other on a daily basis, it is inevitable that some people's humanity cannot stand the test.

Many people dislike you because you are poor and are afraid of you being rich.

Jiang Tang still thinks that the decision to build the factory outside was the right one.

The risk is too great in the village.

"Will we start work tomorrow?"

Qin Xiao nodded, "Yeah."

Jiang Tang smiled and said, "It's better to start the construction as soon as possible. Once the factory is built, we will leave."

She curled her lips and decided not to suffer the anger here.

Some people clearly don't treat you well, but they just want you to remember their good points.

Repeatedly mentioned.

Just like He Sufen, who clearly had no affection for the original owner, but kept trying to gain benefits from her based on their blood relationship.

Qin Xiao gently rubbed the head of the distressed girl in front of him and whispered, "After the factory is built, we will fence it off and they won't cause any trouble."

Jiang Tang nodded slightly. This was the only way to provide the greatest protection.

The construction will start tomorrow. Jiang Tang looked at Qin Xiao and said, "You go there first tomorrow. I'll go buy some things on the street and bring you lunch at noon."

Qin Xiao frowned slightly, "No, don't go. The construction environment there won't be very good. I'll just buy some buns from the street."

"Be good and listen to me."

Jiang Tang frowned, "Okay."

Qin Chuyang sat on the pony and looked at his brother, "Brother, there is also an excavator, I want to see it!"

The kid still remembers that impressive excavator and can't stop thinking about it.

Jiang Tang pinched the boy's cheeks and said, "The excavator has gone. We can't see it now."

Qin Chuyang drooped his eyelids in disappointment.

The water on the fire was already hot. Jiang Tang took a bath first, then sat in the yard, wiping his half-dry hair, and quietly looking at the night sky.

After a while, Qin Xiao brought Qin Chuyang out. The man's hair had grown a lot longer, but he was still fast.

After Jiang Tang dried her hair, she entered the room.

Seeing the two brothers come in, Jiang Tang took out the money he had received in recent times from the box and handed it to Qin Xiao.

"Building a factory, hiring workers, and buying equipment later all cost money. Even if the government provides subsidies, it probably won't be enough. Take it."

Qin Xiao stared at the girl's porcelain-white hands, his eyes darkening.

Jiang Tang handed the money to the man and said, "Qin Xiao, you have to keep a record of my bill for me and pay me back in the future."

She glanced outside the door and said, "In the future, I want more than just a big refrigerator. I want a big house, a Simmons mattress, and a color TV."

Qin Xiao took the money from the girl with his rough hands and said in a hoarse voice, "Well, I'll give it all back to you."

He raised his eyes, stared at the little girl in front of him with his dark eyes, and said hoarsely, "I'll work for you."

The man took the money and said something that was almost a promise. Jiang Tang nodded with satisfaction and then went back to bed.

Qin Xiao carefully put away the girl's money before turning off the lights and going to bed.

…

In the darkness, the sound of the little girl next to me breathing slowly and evenly could be heard.

The man was intoxicated by the woman's fragrance, and his whole body felt hot and unbearable.

His mind was filled with the scene of the woman giving him money just now. The man's eyes dimmed slightly. He turned sideways quietly and gently clenched his fists, convulsing for a moment.

He couldn't help but stretch out his hands and completely cover the little girl in his arms, breathing slightly, and gently resting his forehead on the little girl's forehead, rubbing it gently. In the dark and silent space, the man still pulled the corners of his mouth, and a wanton laugh rolled out of his throat.
