Chapter 137
Wang Qingqi already felt guilty, and when Zhou Jiaojiao asked him this, he stuttered: "I, I..."
"Laowu, why are you running so fast? What happened?" Behind him, Wang Laosan and Wang Laosi also caught up.
The three brothers were walking peacefully just now, but the fifth brother suddenly rushed out, forcing them to run after him.
"It's okay, nothing happened." Wang Qingqi looked at the figure walking towards the county.
Feeling puzzled, he glanced at Zhou Jiaojiao and prepared to go back and ask again.
If something really happened and his third and fourth brothers knew about it, he would be so embarrassed.
Zhou Jiaojiao knew from Wang Qingqi's expression that he had seen it. But she didn't feel guilty, after all, she and Brother Hu were on good terms!
"Didn't you say you would pick me up at the black market today? You didn't pick me up, and the black market was closed. I was left alone there, and I felt like dying. If I hadn't run into an old classmate today and he had been so kind as to send me back, I might still be waiting for you at the black market now.
I'm taking this risk for the sake of our whole family. Do you have any conscience?
You just forgot about me there?"
Zhou Jiaojiao questioned Wang Qingqi, crying as she asked.
Wang Qingqi was crying and all his suspicions disappeared. That’s right, if the other party really had something going on with Jiaojiao, he would not have brought it up himself.
Besides, I can’t even carry someone on my back on the way home, how can I possibly send her back?
Thinking of this, Wang Qingqi felt even more guilty.
"Jiaojiao, this is all an accident. My second brother and I were beaten today, so..." Wang Qingqi pointed to his face.
It was pitch black at the moment and the wounds on the man's face could not be seen clearly. Zhou Jiaojiao did not notice it at first, but now she looked carefully and saw that he had indeed been beaten.
After Wang Qingqi finished stating his request, Zhou Jiaojiao became even more depressed.
Why are all the people in Lao Wang's family so unlucky?
No matter how lucky she is, she can't lead such a group of unlucky things.
But she is already married, so divorce is impossible for her.
Zhou Jiaojiao had her reasons for not being able to divorce Wang Qingqi, so she gave up all other thoughts and could only think of other ways.
"You said... Can't we blame big brother for this? Don't they just want money? Big brother and his wife just split up and took away so much money. If they heard about it, they might even beat big brother up."
Zhou Jiaojiao felt happy when she thought of Wang Qinghe being beaten and Bai Xiuxiu crying too.
Why was it only her man who got beaten?
"Brother?"
Wang Qingqi thought about Wang Qinghe's brute force and was afraid: "It's unlikely, right? Even if all those people were added together, they wouldn't be enough for me to defeat alone. You don't know..."
"Then why can't they think of other things? If you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you must be afraid of thieves thinking about it. How can they make big brother and big sister-in-law live a bad life? Why do big brother and his friends take our money and live a carefree life? Besides, it doesn't matter whether big brother and his friends are uncomfortable or those who beat you up are being beaten.
It's only good for us.
Let them fight each other!"
Zhou Jiaojiao became more and more excited as she spoke.
"I think I should go home and discuss this matter with Dad first." Wang Laosan looked at his fifth brother's wife and thought that they were going crazy.
How dare you have such an idea?
Moreover, why don't they learn their lesson? They have been cheated by their elder brother and sister-in-law, so why do they still dare to covet other people's things?
"Yes, let's go home and talk about it first." Wang Laosi also quickly agreed.
It’s scary to hear about this. What if this fails and the person who beat him up gets pissed off? Wouldn’t that be bad?
Zhou Jiaojiao sneered inwardly when she saw the three of them looking so dead.
A bunch of garbage.
Zhou Jiaojiao followed them back to the Wang family. The Wang family looked at Zhou Jiaojiao as if she were gold.
"Old Fifth Wife, how are you doing today?"
Zhao Guifen controlled the volume of her voice and tried hard to sound gentle.
The others looked at her expectantly.
Zhou Jiaojiao was looked at like this by these people, and she felt a little proud in her heart: "My old classmate has some reputation in the black market. He has already told us to just go there to sell things. He is also very optimistic about the things I brought. As long as we are willing to give him 10%, he will help us settle all the black market matters in the future.
I sold all the things I brought today and made more than twenty dollars."
After Zhou Jiaojiao finished speaking, she took out the money.
The whole family was jealous of the money. After all, Zhou Jiaojiao only made it with sweet potatoes and a little glutinous rice flour, and those things together did not cost that much.
No wonder everyone wants to do business, to make more money.
"It's just that our glutinous rice is not soaked well. If it is soaked well, I can make more things with more styles, and earn more money than this." Zhou Jiaojiao is very proud. Not everyone has this skill.
She had this recipe a long time ago, but she didn't tell her parents about it.
If that were the case, I guess my mom gave the recipe to my other brothers and sisters-in-law.
Where are the benefits now?
Besides, they are timid and it would be a waste of time to say anything.
Moreover, she had heard that if a girl from a certain family was capable of working, her parents would let her stay at home and would not let her get married.
She is not that stupid!
"Okay, okay, our fifth son has married a good wife. Jiaojiao, from now on, all the food in our house, except for the food needed at home, will be in your hands. You can do whatever you say! Your sisters-in-law will also help you.
However, we have to keep this matter secret.
The third and fourth brothers, you two should go to other counties to collect some food.
Now that the grain has just been distributed, many families will probably sell it secretly. It’s too conspicuous to buy it in our county, so you should go to other counties to buy it.”
Wang Shoucheng felt excited when he looked at the money Zhou Jiaojiao brought back today.
This is only the first day, and indeed I haven't made much. The cost of this thing is not high. If I can continue to make money like this, how can I live a fabulous life?
Although everyone says the black market is dangerous, no one has seen anything happen to it in recent years.
Why don't they go?
Zhou Jiaojiao was very happy to have gained power: "Thank you, Dad."
Okay, we will keep half of today's money, and the rest will be divided among you.
Two dollars a family, don't think it's too little. Go around the county and ask around, how much a worker can earn in a month.
Twenty-something dollars a month!
If you could be given two dollars every day, you would be very happy.
In our village, this year is the only year that we have a good harvest. Have you looked at previous years?
How much money did our whole family earn one year ago?
This year is the same. Look at other counties, those villages in counties with poor harvests, each family gets less than 200 yuan a year!
Wang Shoucheng looked at the family and saw that they didn't seem to care much about the two pieces of money, and he immediately became alert.
