However, when Mu Zhiyue returned from the soap shop for lunch, he told Cheng Qingyan that Cheng's two older brothers had gone to the soap shop again that morning.
With Cheng Qingyan's approval, Meng Xinyu showed no mercy to her two older brothers that morning and drove them away.
Mu Zhiyue recounted in detail the things Ye Lingyu had asked him to inquire about to Cheng Qingyan and Ye Lingyu.
Cheng Qingyan's two older brothers didn't go to the soap factory on their own. They brought several other people who didn't work at the soap factory with them.
Moreover, upon meeting Meng Xinyu, they asked Meng Xinyu to assign them positions, instead of asking to come and work.
A job with a title is definitely different from a regular job.
I just didn't expect the two older brothers in the Cheng family to be so impatient.
After Mu Zhiyue finished talking to Cheng Qingyan and the others at noon, her two older brothers came to visit in the afternoon.
Also coming with them were some villagers who didn't work at the soap factory or chicken farm.
There was a lot of noise. Before people even entered Qingyan's yard, they started discussing the new house next door that was still being finished.
Someone jeered, "Cheng Dalang, Cheng Erlang, your Cheng San is so lucky! He must have hooked up with some high-ranking official or nobleman to become so rich all of a sudden."
"That's right, that's right, your Cheng family's third son has really made something of himself now!"
"Look at this huge house! It's bigger than all the other houses in town!"
"Look, Cheng San is actually building a bridge and digging a pit in the yard. What is he doing?"
"Cheng Dalang, Cheng Erlang, if your third son becomes successful, doesn't that mean you're all successful? Don't forget about us in the future!"
"Hahaha, easy, easy. Once my brother and I get a managerial position from the third brother, you'll definitely get your share of the benefits."
"Then we'll thank Master Cheng and Second Master Cheng in advance!"
"Cheng Dalang and Cheng Erlang are truly blessed!"
"That's right, that's right, a meteoric rise to success is just around the corner!"
Cheng Qingyan was inside the house, listening to the sounds outside, and shook her head.
So, Cheng Da and Cheng Er can have a "Young Master" after their names, while she can only be called Cheng San by both acquaintances and strangers?
Although whatever title they gave her was just an empty name, they showed her absolutely no respect in their address.
Besides, even if she becomes successful, what does that have to do with her two brothers?
Is blood thicker than water? I've never seen that.
Does the saying "When one person attains enlightenment, even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven" apply?
Even if they were chickens and dogs, Cheng Yuanfu and Cheng Yuanji were not the chicks she raised in her circle.
Ye Lingyu didn't say anything, but poured her a glass of water, telling her not to be angry and to calm her down.
After Cheng Yuanfu and Cheng Yuanji learned that the venue at the village entrance belonged to Cheng Qingyan, they started bragging about it in the village.
As the soap factory recruited workers in the village, people kept trying to befriend the two brothers.
I hope that by befriending them, I can get a job in the village.
Working in a soap factory is easy work, and it's close to home. Who wouldn't want a job like that?
However, neither of the brothers had a job. Yesterday, when they went to the factory, Meng Xinyu, knowing their relationship with Cheng Qingyan, did not give them any face.
They call it "rules," but that Meng Xinyu is probably hiding it from Cheng Qingyan and giving them a hard time.
This morning, they went there again, but unexpectedly, they were kicked out.
Sure enough, some people heard that the brothers were coming to find Cheng Qingyan to ask him something, so a few more people followed them on the way.
However, their third son has really made something of himself. He built a venue and such a magnificent new house, which is truly enviable.
As they were talking, they arrived at the entrance of Cheng Qingyan's residence. Seeing that the gate was open, Cheng Yuanfu and Cheng Yuanji peeked out.
The yard is well-maintained now, and it's very tidy.
The courtyard walls and gates have been renovated, and the kitchen has been made very spacious and bright.
There were also chicken coops and dog sheds in the yard, and vegetables were planted there.
They also heard that Cheng Qingyan had taken over ten mu of land from Meng Chuying's family this year and planted a lot of vegetables in the fields.
Fugui appeared silently, with a cat perched on his back, glaring menacingly in a defensive posture, baring its teeth at the newcomer.
Its ears twitched occasionally, but its eyes were fixed on the people outside the courtyard, fierce and unblinking.
Cheng Yuanfu tugged at Cheng Yuanji's arm: "Why don't you go knock on the door first, Erlang?"
Cheng Yuanji glanced at the pampered dog and nine cats staring at him, and mustered up a bit of courage to knock on the door.
"Is the third brother home? Cheng San, quickly call your dog back. What kind of behavior is this, barking so unreasonably!"
Such a group of people wouldn't be afraid of a dog that hasn't grown up yet; it's just that Cheng Yuanji is a little afraid of dogs.
Cheng Qingyan put down his teacup, sighed, and left the main room with Ye Lingyu.
What's meant to come will come; there's no escaping it.
Two people led the way at the main entrance, with a dozen or so people standing around.
"I wonder what brings you all here?" Cheng Qingyan said, without inviting them into the courtyard.
One of the leaders was somewhat overweight, had a mustache, and was dressed fairly decently.
He wasn't wearing coarse cloth clothes, and his skin was quite fair; he didn't look like an ordinary person who worked in the fields.
Seeing that Cheng Qingyan had no intention of letting them in, he looked slightly embarrassed.
The eldest son of the Cheng family must maintain his airs.
Cheng Yuanfu straightened up and said to Cheng Qingyan, "Third brother, are you planning to have your second brother and me stand at the door and talk to you?"
Ye Lingyu tugged at Cheng Qingyan's sleeve. Cheng Qingyan didn't say anything, but moved aside.
She was still wondering if she had stuffed dog hair in her brain last night. She was even thinking about whether she should give way to them because of the original owner's blood relationship with Cheng Da and Cheng Er.
Now it seems like we should give way!
What the two of them just said outside was almost identical to what her shameless father said.
I hate people who have no sense of boundaries; they're really annoying.
However, she now remembered that Cheng Yuanfu was the eldest, slightly overweight, and had a mustache.
Cheng Yuanji was the second son, a bit taller and thinner than Cheng Yuanfu, and had no beard.
After Cheng Yuanfu and Cheng Yuanji entered, the villagers who followed them did not come in.
Cheng Qingyan's attitude towards the Cheng brothers didn't seem very warm, and they didn't want to go in and risk getting into trouble.
But they didn't leave. They waited there, hoping that if Cheng Yuanfu and his group could get a managerial position from Cheng Qingyan, they might be allowed to work there as well.
After Cheng Yuanfu and Cheng Yuanji sat down, Ye Lingyu offered to pour them water, but Cheng Qingyan took the water instead.
“You were so immature before, but now that your wife is with you, she’s really enjoying herself.” Cheng Yuanji’s eyes swept over Ye Lingyu, a greedy glint in them.
Cheng Qingyan frowned, staring at Cheng Yuanji with disgust.
She slammed the teacup down on the table with a loud thud.
