Chapter 38 He's so good at this!
This was the first time the merchants had fought such a brilliant battle against the Zhou family, who had been at odds with them for so many years. The Zhou family was caught in a turmoil, and Shang Xingchuan had gained a lot of benefits out of thin air.
That evening, he called Su Yuanzheng and said, "I snatched a few business deals from Zhou Hengzhi. We're brothers, so I'm thinking of giving you a commission."
"How many."
Shang Xingchuan flicked the ash from his cigarette. "Brother, you're not even being polite. I told you to take it, and you could have made an excuse to say you didn't want it."
Why not?
Tongtong is pregnant, and the rose garden won't generate any income for a while, so why not take the money?
Shang Xingchuan laughed, "I like your straightforwardness."
"I'll send you my bank card, and you can transfer the money to my account."
Su Yuanzheng didn't bother to say anything more to him and hung up the phone directly.
The man, covered in sweat, rushed upstairs to take a shower and placed his phone on the stool next to Xia Yutong.
She lay on the chair watching the sunset and the cicadas chirping in the banyan tree at the edge of the village.
What's wrong with the countryside? The countryside is so comfortable! She can see even further. Su Yuanzheng has leased the land, but hasn't started planting yet.
It turns out that there are so many things to know about farming. First, you need to loosen the soil, weed, and then fertilize to ensure the normal growth of the plants.
Xia Yutong picked up a glass of water when Su Yuanzheng's phone suddenly lit up with a message.
Su Yuanzheng's phone password was the original owner's birthday. Xia Yutong swiped to take a look and saw a notification of a bank transfer...
She counted: ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions...
Where did Su Yuanzheng get several million?
Immediately after, Shang Xingchuan sent a message: "Satisfied, brother? If something like this happens again, come to me. I love messing with Zhou Hengzhi and seeing him in such a sorry state."
Startled, Xia Yutong quickly put down her phone and tapped "back".
No wonder! She knew it. The Zhou family would definitely try to cover up Zhou Jin's affair. How could they let it leak out? It turns out Shang Xingchuan was behind it all...
Moreover, judging from the information, it was Su Yuanzheng who made him do this.
This man looks so innocent and naive, but is he really so cunning?
Xia Yutong broke out in a cold sweat, clutching her chest. Thankfully, she hadn't wronged him; thankfully, she hadn't become the vicious ex-wife who abandoned him, but instead settled down to live a peaceful life with him.
Otherwise, her fate would probably be even worse than the original owner's.
Just then, Su Qinglian sat down next to him. "You saw that, didn't you?"
"What?"
"You see, so many people online say that our Yuanzheng is handsome, and they all wish they could marry him and treat him like a treasure!"
Seeing Su Qinglian's arrogant expression, Xia Yutong nodded, "I saw it."
"People should cherish what they have. Don't get carried away just because Yuanzheng likes you. Our Yuanzheng is starting a business now, doing something serious. He hasn't made much money yet, but who knows what the future holds..."
Xia Yutong asked, "When did I become so arrogant?"
"I was just giving an example."
"Tongtong!"
After Su Yuanzheng finished showering, he came out with a kettle, opened the cork, and continued to add water to her cup. "What do you want to eat tonight? I'll make it for you."
Perhaps because of her pregnancy, she lost interest in many things. Su Yuanzheng's pastries were quite good, fragrant and sweet, but she didn't like sweets and wanted something sour and spicy.
"Hot and sour rice noodles, or other things with a hot and sour flavor."
"Okay, I'll go cook."
The whole village was very happy today, and a festive atmosphere filled the village. Even as night fell, the village was enveloped in this joyful ambiance.
The village is mostly populated by the elderly and children. This is the first time so many reporters have come, and it's even made the news. The village chief was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night.
Village Chief Wei said to his wife, Yang Shuying, "I'm going to ask in the town and in the county."
"What do you want to ask?"
“I remember that there are subsidies for young people who return to their hometowns to start businesses, especially in agriculture. Although Yuanzheng has brought in a partner and poured money into it, what if things don’t work out? We still need to think of ways to help him.”
Yang Shuying rolled over. "You're afraid he won't be able to do it, and he'll run away, and the village will be back to the way it was before."
“The village still needs to develop. None of those who went to university came back. Only Yuanzheng and his wife still care about this village.”
Yang Shuying yawned. "Whatever you want."
Village Chief Wei asked, "Aren't you happy today? So many people, so many reporters, talking to us, taking pictures of us, and staying in our village all day."
"Happy."
Meanwhile, Su Yuanzheng made hot and sour noodles for Xia Yutong, and also prepared a stir-fried cabbage with vinegar. Xia Yutong did not vomit tonight and fell asleep shortly after lying down.
Before going to sleep, Su Yuanzheng coaxed her to sleep. Xia Yutong did not mention that he had asked Shang Xingchuan to deal with Zhou Hengzhi, for fear that he would be sensitive, and pretended not to know.
But Xia Yutong jokingly said, "The reporter took your picture, and many people said you are so outstanding and want to marry you."
"They think I'm great because you're with me."
Xia Yutong was stunned for a moment, and Su Yuanzheng hugged her. "Tongtong, every day is so wonderful. From the day you decided to be with me, every day feels like a dream."
Xia Yutong snuggled closer to him, smelling the clean scent of soap pods on the man. "Zhou Hengzhi definitely won't let this go."
"Aren't you afraid of him?"
Xia Yutong looked up at him, and Su Yuanzheng gently kissed her forehead, his voice extremely tender, "Before, what I feared most was that you would choose someone else, that you would leave me, but now I'm not afraid of anything."
——
After Xia Yutong fell asleep, Luo Caixia was almost asleep too, when she suddenly heard a noise coming from the kitchen.
Thinking it was a mouse getting up to steal food, Luo Caixia slowly approached a large wooden stick, only to see Su Yuanzheng's back.
"expedition……"
Su Yuanzheng turned around and glanced at her. "Mom, you're still awake?"
"What are you doing?"
Su Yuanzheng wiped the sweat from his forehead. There was only a small, silent fan beside him, which did almost no relief from the heat on this summer night.
Luo Caixia took a few steps forward and saw him chopping cabbage.
"What are you doing chopping cabbage so late at night?"
"Tongtong can't eat too much sweet or oily food, and she's lost several pounds."
Su Yuanzheng rarely had free time during the day. For the next period of time, there would be no rain, the temperature would be high, and time was tight. He couldn't take Xia Yutong to the fields whenever he wanted. Even though the cabin could be ventilated, it wasn't very convenient.
The work was all done by men, and he was afraid she would be bored.
"I'll make some cabbage at home, a spicy and sour kind, crunchy, she should like it. If she doesn't have a good appetite, she can eat some of this."
Luo Caixia frowned unhappily, "I can do it. You go to sleep. It's the middle of the night. I thought there was a mouse coming from somewhere."
"I'll do it."
Su Yuanzheng said, "Mom, go to sleep. Tongtong is going through so much hardship because she's pregnant with my child. There's nothing I can do that I can't do, but I want to do what I can myself."
