"Boss, I also feel like you seem to have become a different person..."
After hearing Wang Li's words, Li Fuqiang scratched the back of his head and looked at Xu Zeqing and said, "I always feel like you've grown up a lot overnight. Being with us is like being a generation older."
"Not only has he grown up, but his aura has also changed. Today's boss always reminds me of our town's mayor."
When Wang Li heard his brother agree with his point of view, he immediately said: "No, the mayor does not have the same majesty as the boss."
"Boss, you suffer from a lack of education. Otherwise, you could have become a county magistrate."
"Hmph, if you ask me, we were born in the wrong era. If we were born in ancient times, we could become princes by following the boss."
…
What was originally a good conference on getting rich was interrupted by Wang Li and others and turned into a conference of flattery for Xu Zeqing.
At first, when Xu Zeqing heard Wang Li say that he seemed like a different person, although his face remained expressionless, his heart was still agitated: Had he really changed too much?
After hearing the rest, he could only cough helplessly twice: "I am a father after all, how can I be the same as you young fools?"
“…”
After hearing Xu Zeqing's words, the people who were originally discussing passionately fell silent, and silently complained in their hearts: What's so great about having a wife?
Is it so great to be a father?
Xu Zeqing saw through the thoughts of several people at a glance, and felt very proud in his heart: Don’t look at me, my wife is beautiful, I am powerful, and my wife is pregnant.
"Do you want to have a wife? Do you want to be a father?"
Xu Zeqing spoke to the few people in a low and bewitching voice.
When talking about wives, several people thought of Xu Zeqing’s wife, Liu Ruyue.
Although this is their sister-in-law, who can blame her for being so attractive?
They swallowed their saliva and responded to Xu Zeqing excitedly: "Yes, Boss, I want a wife, I want a wife as beautiful as my sister-in-law!"
"Boss, I want one too. I also want a daughter-in-law like my sister-in-law."
"Boss, me too, I want one too!"
…
Hearing the sudden excitement of several people, Xu Zeqing rolled his eyes silently in his heart: A wife like my wife? Dream on!
There is no one in the whole world who is more beautiful than my wife.
Humph, what a bunch of toads, croaking and dreaming.
However, as a former ruler, Xu Zeqing knew clearly in his heart that a beautiful daughter-in-law was the carrot that hung on several men.
He said, "Okay, follow me, and I promise to find you all beautiful wives next year!"
"As for having children, you guys just have to work hard on yourselves. Your sister-in-law is very strict, so I can't help you!"
"Hey, Boss, I'll follow you and do my best!"
When Wang Li heard about the beautiful wife, how could he still notice that the boss had taken advantage of him just now?
He raised his hand excitedly, expressing his sincerity strongly.
Li Fuqiang and others were unwilling to fall behind, and they also expressed their willingness to follow Xu Zeqing and work hard.
After recruiting some people, Xu Zeqing immediately divided the work among them. Taking advantage of the fact that it was the end of the year, he took Wang Li to the county town to wholesale things, and Li Fuqiang and others went from street to street to sell in towns and villages.
"Boss, isn't this speculation?"
After hearing Xu Zeqing's arrangement, Wang Li couldn't help but ask.
"You know shit! The policy has been relaxed a long time ago. Haven't you seen that there are more food stalls in the county?"
Xu Zeqing glared at Wang Li and said, "We have to seize the opportunity now. Before others get the news, we should go all out and make money that others can't!"
"Boss, I'll follow you!"
Li Fuqiang patted his chest and promised.
"Boss, I'll do it too!"
Wang Li also patted his chest and promised...
After a while, Xu Zeqing had managed to get a few of them excited, and they rode their bicycles towards the county town...
******
Because of what happened before, Wu Xiu Lian's status in the Zhao family became even worse. She was not treated as a new daughter-in-law at all. In the middle of winter, with ice and snow everywhere, the Zhao family asked her, a woman whose injury had just healed, to pick radishes in the fields.
The key point is that all the radish leaves were frozen, and when I pulled them out, my hands were frozen red.
When she filled the basket, she felt her hands were so cold and numb that they felt like they were not her own.
That’s not all. Her pants and cotton shoes were all soaked by the snow, and she was shivering with cold.
As she walked back to the village chief's house carrying a heavy load of radishes, she saw a group of women gathered together talking and laughing.
She would never be there for such an occasion.
Because everyone in the village said that she was unlucky and they were afraid of getting in trouble with her.
Originally, she was planning to just leave.
Who would have thought that when he saw Xu's nephew Shitou seriously protecting a woman, he would shout:
"Don't crowd, stand further away and listen to the radio. My aunt is pregnant. If you crowd her, my uncle will beat you to death!"
"Daniu, you are not allowed to listen to the radio in my house. Your mother said something bad about my aunt before, unless she apologizes to my aunt!"
…
A group of adults laughed as they watched Shitou protecting Liu Ruyue like a sword-wielding guard, looking very happy.
Wu Xiulian, captivated by Shitou's words, glanced over and happened to see Liu Ruyue, surrounded by a group of people. The woman, with a gentle smile, sat quietly beneath the sycamore tree, her face reflecting the peacefulness of life. She wore a fashionable cotton-padded jacket, a bright red scarf around her neck, and a bow-shaped hairpin in her hair. Amidst the group of women dressed in dusty clothes, she looked vibrant, bright, and beautiful, like a figure in a painting.
In an instant, Wu Xiu Lian's heart twitched violently: Why, why did this woman still live so well even though she had clearly robbed her of her luck?
Moreover, maybe it was because Liu Ruyue was younger now, but Wu Xiu Lian always felt that Liu Ruyue was more beautiful now than when she saw Zhao Weiqiang become a big boss and bring Liu Ruyue back to the village in her previous life.
It is so beautiful that it doesn't fit in with everything around it.
Liu Ruyue, who was surrounded by people, felt a pair of hateful eyes staring at her. She turned her head and saw that it was Wu Xiu Lian who was carrying things and looked miserable. She smiled coquettishly at her.
That lazy and unrestrained look hurt Wu Xiu Lian's heart even more.
Not even having the courage to go up and curse, Wu Xiu Lian fled with the carrots on her back and her wet shoes dragging.
"Did you get caught stealing? You're running so fast?"
Because he was a little distracted, he didn't notice Zhao Xiaomei in the yard when he entered the door, and bumped into her. She immediately started cursing at him.
