Chapter 150 Heading Straight to Loujia Village
Although Liang Mingxuan is young, he is a child prodigy after all. The IOU he wrote was well-reasoned and clear, and anyone who saw it had to acknowledge the debt.
He was also thoughtful enough to borrow some vermilion ink from the teacher, which made Zeng Xiaojuan, who was already prepared to bite her thumb, very grateful.
He is worthy of being a family member with Sister Zhichun, and he is so thoughtful in doing things.
Xu Zhichun took his brother-in-law aside and talked to him alone.
"You actually asked me if anything happened at home, but you? Why don't you tell me?"
Although it was not obvious, Xu Zhichun knew him well. Since he understood him and cared about him, how could he not see it?
Liang Mingxuan smiled embarrassedly, "I didn't want to trouble my sister-in-law, but she noticed. I'm fine. Xiaoyue brought some chili sauce made by my sister-in-law to the dean's wife. Unexpectedly, the dean and his wife liked it very much. The dean's wife asked if she could buy some from my sister-in-law. I..."
After hearing this, Xu Zhichun felt that it was not a trouble at all, but just an unexpected hobby.
"Your dean and his wife like it. It's such a great thing, why would it be such a hassle? It's not a hassle, not a hassle! It's just chili sauce, easy to make. How about spicy chicken and mushroom flavor? I'll bring a few extra cans next time I come. Just give it to them. There's no need to buy it or not. It's not a very valuable item, and my family can afford it. Just do it quietly, keep a low profile, and don't let other students—classmates—know about it, so as to avoid gossip."
If you eat your own chili sauce, you can speak up for yourself if something happens in the future, right?
Xu Zhichun knew that he was just an ordinary person after all, and hoped that the teachers in the county school would pay more attention to his child.
She didn't ask for anything else, at least fairness and justice were enough.
"Are you really not bothering sister-in-law?"
"Of course!" Xu Zhichun scolded him, "You fool, don't be like those pedants who've become stupid from studying. How can you refuse such a good thing? Don't worry, I'll definitely bring you more next time."
Liang Mingxuan felt relieved and full of gratitude, and smiled embarrassedly: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I won't be a nerd."
"Of course my sister-in-law knows you're not," Xu Zhichun said confidently, "I'm the one who brought you here, how could I not know?"
Liang Mingxuan also smiled, and couldn't help but say with pride and pride: "I heard Xiaoyue say that the dean's wife said the cook at home is a good cook. I tried the chili sauce made by my sister-in-law and tried to make it. But even though the ingredients are the same, I just can't get the same taste. I tried again and again and had to give up. My sister-in-law is really amazing!"
Xu Zhichun laughed and said, "That cook is really amazing. It's true that the ingredients are just the same, slowly simmering in the oil. But this chili sauce is like that. Even with the same ingredients, the taste varies greatly from person to person."
Of course, she couldn't tell the truth or give the recipe. The recipe was ordinary, but she added Lao Gan Ma.
This was the big boss who once dominated the chili sauce world.
How can we just let people learn it casually?
After receiving the IOU, everyone turned around and headed straight for Loujia Village.
When Zeng Xiaojuan was at home, she was responsible for all the housework. She was busy from the moment she opened her eyes until dark, like a spinning top without a break.
She suddenly withdrew, and you can imagine what a mess the house was in.
Five days passed in chaos and confusion, and I kept cursing Zeng Xiaojuan every day.
Zeng Xiaojuan finally came back that day. The harried Aunt Lou glared at her with anger in her eyes. "Have you had enough of your idleness, you bastard? You still remember to come back!"
Aunt Lou rushed over like a gust of wind and was about to hit someone.
Chunfen grabbed her easily, and no matter how furiously Aunt Lou San struggled and cursed, she couldn't move.
It was noon and the Lou family were all at home. When they heard the noise, they all ran out of the house.
"What are you doing? What are you doing? Let my mother go!"
"Damn it! Who gave you permission to do this?"
"Sister-in-law, you ran away for several days without saying goodbye, and as soon as you came back you ordered outsiders to bully Mom. Is this how you behave as a daughter-in-law? Is this how you raise your daughters in the Zeng family?"
Lou Er stared at Zeng Xiaojuan with gloomy eyes, with nothing but disgust and hatred in his eyes, as if Zeng Xiaojuan had dug up his ancestral grave in the previous life.
Xu Zhichun, an outsider, felt chilled to the bone when he saw this.
If it’s like this, why are you still a couple?
"What are you doing standing there like a log? Go back to work. Are you waiting to be served? Do you think you're destined for this?"
Xu Zhichun asked Chunfen to release Aunt Lou San. "I don't care about your family affairs. You all know that Qiao'er was sick before. Zeng Xiaojuan knelt down and begged me, and I softened my heart and paid for her medical expenses. A total of four taels of silver. This is the IOU with Zeng Xiaojuan's handprint. Bring the silver and I'll return the IOU to you."
"What did you say?"
"Medical expenses? How much?"
"Tell me again? What money? How much silver?"
As expected, the Lou family was all furious.
"Why don't you just go and rob them! There's no money, not a penny, so ask whoever spent it!"
The furious Lou family members cursed at one another, their words vicious and shameless, unbearable to listen to. Even though they had prepared themselves mentally, Xu Zhichun and the others still felt their anger rising.
Chunfen, who was known for his honesty, winked and said, "Even our village beauty loves to curse, but she's not as good as them."
Xu Zhichun thought to himself that was of course. No matter how powerful Aunt Hua was, she was still a country woman with limited knowledge and vocabulary. She could not compare to the Lou family. After all, they had done business in the county town before, so they must have more ways to curse.
Xu Zhichun: "Nothing you say will help. Qiao'er is seriously ill and has been severely depleted. I've used a lot of good medicine, both to treat the illness and to replenish the body. I've even used ginseng. I think the four taels of silver I took was too little. Anyway, here's the IOU, you have to acknowledge it whether you want to or not."
"Go ask whoever spent it! Ask Zeng for it."
"But Zeng is also from your Lou family. Didn't she find you after searching for you? You have to pay her. Your granddaughter is so sick that the city clinic said it would be a disaster if she was taken to the hospital later. I paid her out of pity, and it would be wrong not to pay her back. Are you, the Lou family, scoundrels?"
"We didn't ask you to save us. How can a little girl be so precious? This money shouldn't be spent at all! Anyway, we don't have the money, so go to whoever asked you for help."
"Since that doesn't make sense, I'll go find your village head, your clan leader, and your elders. We in Liangjia Village are not easy to bully. Four taels of silver, this can't be ignored."
Xu Zhichun turned around and was about to leave.
The Lou family was panicked.
"Stop!"
"You can't go!"
I can't afford to lose this person.
Lou Er came up and was about to hit Zeng Xiaojuan, but Liang Mingliang blocked him and said in a bad tone: "What do you want to do?"
Lou Er was furious. "What? I'm teaching my own wife a lesson, and you have the right to interfere? Haha, Zeng, is this the wild man you found outside? You—ah!"
Liang Mingliang punched him in the face, "You are a beast!"
Wishing you all a happy new year! May everything go well! May you live a happy life! May you be prosperous in the new year!
Muah, love you guys!
New Year and New Moon, I would like to ask for your support through monthly tickets, thank you!
