Chapter 330 We Don't Need Fang Jianhua Anymore
"Yeah, the third brother's girlfriend's mother is way too demanding. What family would give their daughter-in-law whatever money she asks for? And she even has her own mother stay home to take care of her daughter's child..."
The man curled his lip, clicked his tongue, and shook his head. "If the third son's family doesn't have enough money to cause trouble for the second daughter's family, the two families will definitely fall out..."
"Can Su Laosan still buy the fish and shrimp that are intercropped with rice in our village?" a villager asked urgently.
The man glanced at him and sneered, "What are you buying? Fish and shrimp fry are expensive, and they need water to survive after they're raised. The investment is too big, and you can't make much money anyway. The third brother originally wanted to help his brother-in-law, but now that the two families have fallen out like this, why should anyone give them money? If you can't do it, then quit."
"What the hell? You're quitting?! Old Su doesn't want it anymore?!"
A villager yelled, "I just voted for Fang Jianhua! He lied to us!"
After saying this, he stood on tiptoe and shouted inside, "Village chief, the vote doesn't count, we need to vote again! Fang Jianhua lied! People from Su Laosan's shop came and said they can't do it anymore, they don't want the intercropped fish and shrimp anymore..."
As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding area erupted into chaos, filled with shouts and noise.
Brother Fang belatedly realized that he had made eye contact with the people sent by Su Laosan.
He hurriedly pushed through the crowd and stepped out, asking, "Are you one of Su Laosan's men?"
"I am Su Laosan's cousin. This passbook was given to me by Laosan to give to Erniu."
My cousin handed over the bankbook and said, "The money in here is what the third brother promised to give to Erniu. After that... the two of them will no longer be a couple, and naturally, they will have nothing to do with each other when they get married."
After saying that, he glanced at Brother Fang from head to toe and spat, "Your family is really shameless. How much does your third brother like your sister? Yesterday he couldn't even smile and was running around dozens of villages collecting money, saying that after the breakup, he wouldn't be able to protect your second daughter, so he had to save up more dowry for her so that she wouldn't be bullied by her in-laws when she gets married..."
He glanced at Fang Erniu, whose eyes were red, but didn't say anything harsher. He nodded slightly to her, then turned and got into his car and left.
Those who voted for Brother Fang were unhappy.
"Village chief, we want a revote! We don't want Fang Jianhua as village secretary anymore! He broke his promise; he was supposed to make money for us, but now we haven't received a single penny..."
"...Throw it again!"
"Throw it again!"
The shouts were deafening.
The eldest son was overjoyed and quickly winked at the village chief. The village chief raised his hand, glanced at Brother Fang, whose face was turning blue from holding his breath, smiled, and said, "Jianhua, respecting the will of the people, the last round of voting doesn't count, we'll vote again."
The villagers cheered loudly.
Brother Fang's vision went black.
I felt like the sky was about to fall.
These people are heartless. Didn't he treat them well usually?
Although he has some ulterior motives, when it's his turn to do something, he is genuinely doing it, considering their needs, and planning for their benefit!
What are they doing?
Should we betray him?
This Su Feng Diao, of all times, had to come at this crucial moment to ruin him!
What a heartless bastard!
If it wasn't him, how could he have spent so much time with Erniu?
If you ruin him, he can forget about ever being with Erniu again.
The village chief and Uncle Fang exchanged a glance, then called for the villagers to line up and vote again.
Brother Fang clutched the passbook in his hand, then opened it as if remembering something. His eyes lit up when he saw the two thousand yuan on it.
When I looked up again, my mind was made up.
He took a deep breath, walked to the blackboard, and said loudly, "It's my fault as the village party secretary for not doing my job well. My family's affairs have affected everyone's income. I will bear this loss!"
Uncle Fang was taken aback and asked the village chief, "What does he mean by that?"
"He paid for it out of his own pocket?"
The village chief frowned. "How much money would that be? Can he afford it?"
Brother Fang adopted an attitude of 'disdain for being their enemy,' saying, '...Here's what we'll do: later, in my capacity as the village secretary, I'll give every household in the village twenty yuan as a subsidy. If it doesn't work this year, we can always go next year. I know a lady in the municipal government; I'll go to her house in a few days and ask if there are any other ways to make money that are suitable for our village...'
His words gradually calmed the crowd's agitation, and many people stared at him expectantly.
"Really giving me twenty?"
Brother Fang smiled and nodded, "You really are!"
But there are conditions.
"...I would only give it to someone if I were the village party secretary; this is a failure on my part..."
The villagers weren't interested in hearing so much; they were just happy to hear something genuine.
Many people were saying, "Then I won't vote anymore. You can continue being the one. You're not doing a bad job."
Some people laughed.
The question was, "When can I receive the money?"
Brother Fang smiled and said, "Tomorrow, I need to go to the bank to exchange the money. I have to make arrangements with the bank in advance, right?"
"Can the lady from the municipal government help us?" someone asked.
Brother Fang said yes, "Our family is related to her in some way."
He was all smiles, still the village party secretary who cared about the people.
Uncle Fang glared at the village chief, who coughed lightly and whispered a few words in his ear. Uncle Fang's eyes lit up, and he whispered them to his wife.
The couple stared fiercely at Brother Fang, who was surrounded by the crowd.
When Brother Fang returned home, he didn't explain the bankbook to Fang Erniu. Instead, he held the bankbook and told his grandparents about his plans.
Show them the bankbook.
The elderly couple gasped when they saw the number above. So much?
Grandpa Fang did a rough calculation: there are 92 households in the village, 20 per household, totaling 1,840 yuan, leaving him with 100 or 200 yuan.
Grandma Fang hesitated for a moment and said, "This money was given to Erniu by Su Laosan. If we use it like this, Erniu will find out..."
"Is there any other way now?"
Brother Fang said, "The matter started because of them. This money can solve the problem, so we'll be even."
Grandma Fang paused for a moment and glanced at Brother Fang.
She knew that her eldest grandson was secretly blaming his granddaughter.
When Erniu suggested this idea, he himself couldn't resist the temptation and agreed on his own.
Su Laosan even helped him find connections, and these people not only didn't owe him anything, but were actually indebted to him.
But in his mouth, it became that everything was caused by them?!
Grandma Fang felt a chill run down her spine.
She loves her granddaughter, but she loves her grandson even more.
Her granddaughter will return to her family sooner or later, but her grandson is her foundation, the one who will carry her banners and break her basin in the future. Erniu...
She'll just have to put up with this.
Brother Fang and his younger brother went to the city without stopping to withdraw money and exchange it for change.
Grandma Fang told Grandpa Fang what she had just thought, "Jianhua doesn't know how to be grateful..."
Grandpa Fang patted her on the shoulder, "There's still the second child, isn't there? We're so old, do you think we can outlive the second child?"
Grandma Fang spat at him.
"How old is the second son? He still has decades of good life ahead of him. I don't want to be a parent who dies before their child. By the way, what about the eldest son..."
Grandma Fang frowned with worry, "What if one trick fails and they come up with some other evil idea?"
"I'll go take a look."
Grandpa Fang stood up, holding his pipe, and said, "The eldest son has already hooked up with the village chief, he definitely won't let this go..."
He went to the main house, and whatever he said, Uncle Fang responded, but it was clearly just perfunctory.
Grandpa Fang was very uneasy, feeling that something terrible was about to happen.
Sure enough, something went wrong the next day when the money was distributed!
