She wouldn't let herself be beaten anymore.
Before Qiao Wanyue even returned to the team headquarters, she heard the rumor that Old Lady Yang had beaten Yang Sicui to death.
She twitched her lips.
In her past life, that old woman was a feudal lord for her entire life, pretending to be kind and benevolent.
In this life, without her as a sucker, I can't keep up the act anymore.
Like Zhong Qingqing, Old Lady Yang is selfish at heart.
Having seen through each other's true colors, it's hard to imagine how this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, who were once on good terms, will get along.
She was really looking forward to it.
Qiao Sheng rode his bicycle with Qiao Shanshan on the back into Xiahe Village, followed by Liang Xiu.
Neither of them looked well.
Along the way, they encountered many villagers, and their gazes toward Qiao Sheng were all extremely complicated.
Qiao Sheng didn't recognize those people, but he could clearly sense that the atmosphere in Xiahe Village had changed.
When he came before, everyone looked worried, and the road was extremely uneven, full of potholes and small ditches everywhere.
But now, the road surface has been leveled. Although it's not a cement road, the soil has been leveled, the ditches and gullies have been filled in, and even the large pits have been filled with coal ash.
The narrow path, which used to be only wide enough for one person to pass, is now wide enough for him and Liang Xiu to ride together without feeling crowded.
It's important to understand that in rural areas, occupying farmland is a very serious matter, especially if it involves reducing grain production areas to widen roads. If this is reported, the village head of Xiahe Village will be punished.
The further he went, the more alarmed he became. It wasn't just one road that had been widened; at least all the roads in the village had been widened, especially the roads a few kilometers outside the village entrance, where the widening was particularly noticeable, and there were still traces of horse-drawn carriages and tractors on the roads.
He knew that Xiahe Village had made a lot of money from dried vegetables and pastries.
But he and the other village leaders thought Yang Dongliang was exaggerating.
But now it seems that Xiahe Village has really made money.
Qiao Sheng suppressed his shock and deliberately took a long detour, driving Qiao Shanshan around the village. Although Qiao Shanshan didn't understand her father's scheme, she knew he was doing it for her.
Qiao Sheng really wasn't doing it for her.
He was wary of Xiahe Village's business. Qiaojia Brigade used to be one of the top brigades in the commune, but since Xiahe Village rose to prominence, Qiaojia Brigade had fallen to the bottom and had been criticized by the commune leaders several times.
He acts like a grandson every time he's in a meeting.
If they could learn some of the side businesses from Xiahe Village, then their Qiao Family Brigade wouldn't have to be at the bottom anymore.
What do you mean by "stealing knowledge"? It's about mutual progress.
Qiao Sheng is a despicable person.
Yang Dongliang had already received news that Qiao Shengjin, the head of the Qiao family brigade, had arrived when he entered the village.
Since the village has seen an increase in sideline businesses, Xiahe Village has become the favorite place for the brigade leaders of all the production teams to visit.
He wasn't a stingy person; he even arranged for a few people to be stationed at the village entrance so that he could be notified immediately whenever the commune's brigade leader came over, and he would go to entertain the guests.
He knew in his heart that if Xiahe Village wanted to develop, it would depend not only on itself, but also on the commune and the various production brigades. It wasn't enough for one family to become rich; all the production brigades had to be able to eat and dress well.
This was his, Qiao Wanyue's, and Secretary Guo's wish.
Their power is currently limited, and they can only influence the affairs of their own brigade.
But he never hesitated to share his knowledge with any team that wanted to learn from him.
But Qiao Sheng was different. After entering the village, he neither went to his son-in-law's house nor looked for Yang Dongliang.
Instead, he wandered around the brigade, focusing on riding his bike around the brigade headquarters several times.
Qiao Sheng thought he hadn't been discovered, but in fact he was being watched as soon as he entered the village.
Qiao Sheng and Liang Xiu stopped at the team headquarters.
Qiao Sheng's eyes lit up as he looked at the colorful paintings on the wall.
