After the incident was over, Shen Zhizhu and Xu Haonan returned to the village and found many people at the entrance of the village, holding flashlights.
"What are they doing, taking a cool breeze?"
Xu Haonan didn't know either, as the environment was too dark and they were using flashlights to shine the light towards them.
"I don't know, maybe they came out to enjoy the cool air and chat."
Cool off? Chat?

There is wind from time to time, but do we have to chat in such a dark environment? Are you really not afraid of being bitten by mosquitoes?
As soon as the villagers saw the two of them, they immediately became excited. Some waved their arms, some waved flashlights, and some shouted their names.
The guy waving the flashlight was slapped on the head by the person next to him and he became quiet.
The bright light was dazzling. Shen Zhizhu squinted his eyes to adjust himself and tilted his head slightly.
"It looks like they were waiting for us. The one who got beaten must be a naughty kid."
Xu Haonan laughed. The habit of waving flashlights is mostly played by children. Judging from his height, he is a teenager and is at the age of being naughty.
When they got closer, these uncles and aunts swarmed over, and they were indeed waiting for Shen Zhizhu and his wife.
"Xiaozhu, Haonan, you are finally back. Such a big incident happened this afternoon. How are you doing now?"
afternoon?
"What happened this afternoon? Someone was causing trouble in the store. How did you know about it? News spread so quickly."
Aunt Li pulled Shen Zhizhu over and sat him on the stone bench, placing a flashlight beside him, as if to say, "Hurry up and tell me, they are anxious to hear what you have to say, and they will not let you go back until you finish."
Shen Zhizhu looked around, wanting to take a look at the surroundings, but everywhere he looked was people.
Xu Haonan was also pressed next to him, holding his forehead and looking at him helplessly.
"If the daughter-in-law of the Li family hadn't gone to the city after work today, we wouldn't have known about this. That boss Sun is really a piece of shit. He even brought a knife with him when he was causing trouble."
"Not only that, I heard someone was stabbed in Xiaozhu's shop, and the blood splattered for several meters!"
This is really ridiculous the more I listen to it. What the hell is this?
"Aunties, stop it, it's not that scary. Sun Yi sent some people to our store to steal our skills and even arranged for someone to cut a piece of clothing with a knife. Fortunately, my husband found out early and didn't cause much damage."
When each person has his or her own version, and it is passed back and forth, it is easy for it to deviate from the original. This is what the saying "three people make a tiger" means.
Hearing that no one was stabbed, the uncles and aunts breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's good, that's good. We were so scared. After receiving the news, some of us went to the city to look for you, but we found that you were closed. We were so anxious."
"That's right. I also heard someone talking about police officers."
At that time, they thought it was true as the rumors said, that someone was stabbed in the store, and then the police were alarmed and came to take the troublemaker away.
It is not clear whether Shen Zhizhu and Xu Haonan were injured.
There are so many people waiting for them to come back and caring about their situation. How could Shen Zhizhu not feel warm?
She didn't care about the little thing and told them briefly what had happened.
By the way, announce that they are buying clothes.
"Aunties and sisters-in-law, I checked with Sister Chunli today. She said that starting tomorrow, the employee price will be open. You can buy clothes for your family members at the employee price. It will be cheaper."
The announcement of employee wages successfully diverted everyone's attention and no one cursed Boss Sun.
Let's talk about buying clothes.
"Great! These clothes have all been made by us, so the quality is absolutely impeccable. You can buy them with confidence."
"I've been waiting to hear this news. When the weather gets cooler, I'll buy a few more sets for my kids. They'll be the brightest when they wear them out!"
Looking at the happy group of people, Shen Zhizhu interrupted them.
"Ahem, it's like this. Although you can use the employee price, you can't buy in bulk or sell it elsewhere. You can't buy on behalf of others except your family members. Once discovered, the employee price will be forfeited. In serious cases, you will be fired from the factory."
After hearing this, the people with evil intentions weighed the options in their minds and finally gave up the idea of buying at a low price and selling at a high price.
"Don't worry, we know the seriousness of the matter and will never do such a thing."
"No one would do such a thing against their conscience. Don't forget that we can buy things as we like and our family's living conditions have improved. It's all thanks to someone!"
Usually they can only stay at home to take care of their husbands and children, clean and do farm work. They do a lot of work, but they spend as much as they earn and cannot save any money at all.
Not to mention buying clothes and jewelry you like, you should save any money you have, for fear of any headache or fever, and not having to borrow money everywhere.
And now, thanks to the work that Shen Zhizhu introduced to them, their family's living conditions have improved significantly in just two months.
Rice and flour steamed buns, chicken, duck and fish are no longer luxuries.
You can also buy clothes at such a discount. Only a fool would break the rules.
"What are you doing? Staying up late at night and gathering together? What the hell!"
A roar came from behind the crowd, somewhat abruptly, so everyone turned around and saw that it was Du Zaide and Du Manjun.
After not seeing each other for a while, Du Zaide actually used a cane, and Du Manjun was supporting him beside him. The two of them just stood there with a weak flashlight.
Although he couldn't see clearly, Shen Zhizhu felt that the other person was staring at him blankly. He couldn't tell why, it was just a feeling.
Maybe it's the sixth sense.
"Emma, why are you two standing there all of a sudden? Are you trying to scare someone to death by suddenly speaking out?"
We haven't seen Du Zai De for a while. It seems that since the last money scam, he has always stayed indoors. He said he was repenting and burned incense at home every day. He sounded very pious.
As for Du Manjun, he was often seen in the early morning and at dusk, because he had to go to school. He held his breath, planning to show off when he was admitted to university and Shen Zhizhu and that barbarian Xu Haonan failed.
Today, they ate a little too much, so they went out for a walk to help digest the food.
I didn't expect to see a lot of flashlights from a distance. When I walked closer, I realized that it was a group of people gathered together and chattering.
And between them were Shen Zhizhu and Xu Haonan, people he hated.
What's the meaning of them gathering together so late at night? Do they still have me, the village chief, in their eyes?
