Everyone cherishes this business and works diligently and meticulously, afraid of ruining their reputation.
The reason the rope factory is not continuing its cooperation is definitely not because of the quality of their netting.
"I don't know. You should just take the money and leave. It's such a big factory. What can I do if they say they won't cooperate?"
Li Shuxian let out a deep breath. In the past, everyone was cheerful when he lined up to hand out money, but today they all looked gloomy.
Bai Jiaojiao only heard about this from Bai Shiqing, who had just finished work, in the evening.
"They don't need us anymore?"
Bai Jiaojiao was somewhat surprised. When she went to sign the contract, the factory manager didn't seem like he would go back on his word: "He didn't say why?"
"Yeah, your brother-in-law was so depressed when he came back. He didn't even eat dinner properly."
Bai Shiqing shook her head. She didn't expect the matter to be resolved so quickly. The villagers all thought it would be a long-term business, at least for a year or two, so that everyone could save some money.
"I'll go to town tomorrow to find out the truth." Bai Jiaojiao felt there was more to the story.
Everyone felt that being able to help the net rope factory build nets was a pleasant surprise, since they had no work to do and it was a pity that it would only last for a while.
But Liu Ying was on high alert.
Recalling her attitude towards Wenli over the past month, Liu Ying involuntarily shuddered.
With a creak, the door opened.
Yu Wenli came home exceptionally early today.
Seeing Yu Wenli's gloomy expression, Liu Ying knew that he already knew about this.
"Wenli, listen to me..."
Liu Ying knelt down in front of Yu Wenli, grabbing his sleeve, but Yu Wenli shook her off.
"You think you're so capable?" Yu Wenli kicked Liu Ying, sending her sprawling.
Liu Ying dared not cry out in pain, nor did she dare to dodge.
"You think you can support yourself? Let me tell you, from now on you won't eat a single bite of my food."
Yu Wenli's shoe soles pounded on Liu Ying's body, and Liu Ying's screams reached the ears of the neighbors.
They had finally calmed down for over a month, but today, as soon as the news of the rope factory's refusal to cooperate arrived, they started fighting again. Everyone knows exactly why.
"That Liu Ying has been too cocky these past few days. If she had known this would happen, she would have toned it down and wouldn't have gotten such a bad beating today."
Everyone was used to their family affairs. At first, they felt sorry for Liu Ying, but as time went on, the neighbors realized that Liu Ying was no good either. There was no point in feeling sorry for either of them; they just hoped that they could behave themselves and give everyone some peace and quiet.
Bai Jiaojiao lay on the kang (a heated brick bed) that night, tossing and turning, feeling that something was wrong.
That factory manager was willing to do things secretly, even hiring people to do things in order to get a couple more orders. It's obvious he wanted as many as possible. So why did he refuse them?
Bai Jiaojiao thought for a long time and had a strange intuition: there was something hidden here.
"Knock knock knock".
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door in the courtyard. It was the middle of the night, and Bai Jiaojiao was home alone, so she didn't dare to open the door immediately.
She remained silent, walked quietly to the door, and saw Liu Ying standing outside through the crack in the door.
In the moonlight, the bruises and swelling on her face were visible. She was holding an enamel basin in her hand, which she was angrily shoving against Bai Jiaojiao's door.
Bai Jiaojiao had a hunch that if she dared to open the door, everything in the basin would be splashed on her face.
Fortunately, her front door opened inwards. Bai Jiaojiao unbolted the door, stood behind a door, stepped back, opened the door, and hid her figure behind it.
Liu Ying originally thought that if Bai Jiaojiao didn't dare to come out and open the door at night, she would throw a bucket of dog blood at her door to drench her with bad luck, and no one would know that she did it.
She then discovered that the door had moved.
Liu Ying sneered, gathering all her hatred in her hands, and splashed it forward with all her might.
Bai Jiaojiao hid behind the door and was unaffected, but her vision was filled with a dark red.
"Liu Ying, are you crazy?"
Bai Jiaojiao came out from behind the door and saw that her door, the ground, and the steps in front of the door were all black.
Luckily it was nighttime and we couldn't see clearly, otherwise the bloody scene would have been terrifying.
The sweet, metallic smell made Bai Jiaojiao realize it was blood. The blood remaining in the enamel basin in Liu Ying's hand flowed down the edge onto Liu Ying's body. Coupled with the fierce look flashing in her eyes in the darkness, Bai Jiaojiao's first reaction was that Liu Ying had gone mad.
"Bai Jiaojiao, I'm in this situation because of you! You did the rope skipping incident on purpose, didn't you? You give me a sweet treat, and I get beaten even more brutally!"
Liu Ying pretended to throw the enamel basin in her hand at Bai Jiaojiao.
Bai Jiaojiao dodged away in fright, the basin crashing to the ground with a bang, the remaining blood splattering everywhere. Bai Jiaojiao felt a few drops of blood wet her calves, making her feel nauseous.
"What does Yu Wenli hitting you have to do with me?"
Bai Jiaojiao hadn't heard from Liu Ying for a long time. For the past month or so, she had been busy making money with her older brother and sister. She had no time to care about those two disgusting people, Liu Ying and Yu Wenli.
"I don't want to live anymore! And you won't have it easy either! I'm going to fight you to the death!"
Liu Ying rushed towards Bai Jiaojiao. Fortunately, there was a small hoe that Chen Heng usually used to repair the yard by the door. Bai Jiaojiao grabbed it and swung it horizontally at Liu Ying with all her might.
What are you doing?
A flashlight beam came from afar. Bai Jiaojiao squinted, unable to see who it was because of the backlight.
Liu Ying, feeling guilty, panicked when she saw someone coming. Bai Jiaojiao accidentally poked her with a hoe into the pile of blood that hadn't completely seeped into the ground by the door.
"What are you doing so late at night? Damn it! Did you kill our dog?"
When people are closer, their voices become clearer.
The man who came was Li Lide. He had heard a faint noise outside the yard while he was sleeping that night. He didn’t pay any attention to it at first, but he couldn’t fall asleep, so he got up to go to the outhouse and continue sleeping. Then he found that his big black guard dog was dead.
The dog's body was still warm, so Li Lide immediately grabbed a flashlight and went out to find the person who killed his dog. He ended up here.
If it weren't for the argument here, Li Lide wouldn't have planned to come this way anyway. After all, Shen Heng wasn't home, and Bai Jiaojiao would never have done something like this.
Li Lide shone his flashlight on Liu Ying's face, and she frowned and closed her eyes.
“Village chief, you’ve caught him red-handed! This guy got a basin of blood from somewhere and splashed it all over our doorstep. He even tried to strangle me. What do you think we should do about this?”
Bai Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Li Lide arrive.
Although Li Lide has moral issues, he is at least a mentally sound person and would never harm anyone.
Li Lide was seething with anger.
Not every family in the village can afford to keep a dog. Their big black dog is as tall as a person's knee, very strong, and usually guards the house and yard, and can also help look after the children. It is very intelligent.
This Liu Ying is truly ruthless. I don't know what method she used, but she killed his family's Hei Zi without anyone noticing.
