Chapter 94 Make Your Own Decision
Liu Er lowered his voice as if he wanted to do good for Ye Mingzhu.
"These are the tenant farmers on the farm. If you think they're good, then let them stay. It's not good to just kick them out. Why are you giving them food for free? I heard you only feed the children. That's really a waste."
The smile on Ye Mingzhu's face faded a little: "Thank you for your concern. These children helped me. This is my thank you gift."
She was not familiar with Liu Er and did not want to tell anyone about the sweet stick.
Liu Er didn't notice Ye Mingzhu's indifference and continued to talk to himself: "You are young, but as a host, you can't be too kind. Be careful not to be bullied by these tenants."
He was considered a family boy and had to ask his boss for help before he could work outside. Seeing that Wang Dahu had caught the eye of the head shopkeeper, he was envious but not jealous. He only wanted to stick close to Wang Dahu and have a good future.
"Thank you for your concern. If I find someone with bad intentions, I will kick him out." Ye Mingzhu could see that he had no ill intentions, but didn't want to say more.
"That's good. I have followed Brother Hu for several years and I will definitely not harm you." Liu Er smiled and felt that what he said made sense.
Ye Mingzhu pulled the corner of her mouth, and the two of them exchanged a few more words. Then Liu Er prepared to leave. He had been there for two or three days. Seeing that Ye Mingzhu had come and the land deed had been handed over, he felt that there was nothing to worry about, so he thought about going back quickly.
Seeing that he was eager to go home, Ye Mingzhu did not try to persuade him. However, there were no special products on the farm, so she just asked Ye Yun'an to pack some meat patties and snacks for Liu Er.
Liu Er originally wanted to refuse, but when he heard that it was meat patties and snacks, he put his raised hand back down. At worst, if it didn't taste good, he could just throw it away.
After getting the food, Liu Er didn't delay at all. He went back to pack up his things and left.
Ye Mingzhu raised her eyebrows. Is he in a hurry to go back?
At this time, Wu Jiang came to report that the food was ready and was ready to be distributed.
Ye Mingzhu waved her hand: "Let's go, let the children go and eat, um, let Xiaoyue go too."
Wu Jiang nodded, but did not leave. He rubbed his feet on the ground. Ye Mingzhu suspected that if the soil was soft, he could dig a hole.
"What's going on?"
Wu Jiang looked up, a simple smile on his face. "Boss, I'll arrange for a few people to come and clean up the place again, and then go to the county restaurant to order a few dishes for you, okay?"
Ye Mingzhu was a little confused as to why Wu Jiang suddenly became so attentive.
It was not until Wu Jiang could no longer hide the anxiety in his eyes that she realized that Liu Er went to the county yesterday not only to sign the contract for the farm, but also because he was dissatisfied with the environment here and ran away to live in the county.
"I'm fine. We'll cook for ourselves later. After Xiaoyue finishes her meal, ask her to come over so I can ask her about the sweet sticks." Although Ye Mingzhu didn't dislike the environment on the farm, she didn't want to live here for a long time.
She arranged the candy bar making work early so that she could go home earlier.
Wu Jiang looked up and felt that Ye Mingzhu had no ill intentions, so he went outside to call Wu Yue in.
Wu Yue had a steamed bun in her mouth and a plate of sweet sticks in her hand. The girl following behind her also had a plate of sweet sticks.
The girl put down the candy bar, glanced at Ye Mingzhu, turned and left, while Wu Yue sat on the chair.
"Boss, these sweet sticks have been cleared away."
She oversaw the cleaning of these, and only those with clean hands and face, free of any dirt, could touch them.
"Well, it's quite clean," Ye Mingzhu took a look and found it much better than the one delivered yesterday.
She leaned forward and asked, as if chatting, "Xiao Yue, are you engaged?"
Wu Yue's face flushed slightly, and she shook her head: "No, my parents are dead, and my eldest brother said that marriage is a lifelong thing, so he let me make the decision myself."
Ye Mingzhu smiled. Based on her understanding of Wu Yue, this was probably her idea, and Wu Jiang had no choice but to agree.
Wu Yue didn't know what he was thinking about, his face turned pale: "Boss, I can help my brother take care of the sweet sticks. I don't want to get married early."
"You decide your own marriage," Ye Mingzhu had no habit of matchmaking for others. She just wanted to find someone to manage Tianbanger.
"Xiaoyue, I want to make these candy bars into candies. Would you like to help me?"
Wu Yue's face changed from surprise to joy, and she nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes."
"You need to sign a contract. If you tell the candy recipe to others, you will have to compensate us five times the losses, and we will also sell your brother's entire family." Jiang Hongyu suddenly interrupted.
Theoretically, the tenants on the farm are not considered their own people, and if they do not rent the land on the farm, they can leave.
His original intention was to buy some people who had signed death contracts to make candy, so that it would be easier to keep secret. However, on the one hand, time was tight and it was difficult to find people. On the other hand, Ye Mingzhu trusted Wu Yue and wanted to give her a chance.
He came up with this idea. Wu Yue must sign the contract. They have no background now. If they are not careful, they will be making wedding dresses for others.
Wu Yue's face suddenly flushed red, not out of anger, but excitement. She nodded vigorously: "I promise to work hard for the boss and not leak any secrets."
She had been growing up on the farm and had long wanted to see the world outside the farm, but she was the youngest daughter of her parents, who were reluctant to let her go. After her parents passed away, her brother and sister-in-law were even more afraid that something would happen to her, so they kept suppressing her. This was her only chance.
If she does well, she might be able to leave the village with her boss.
Many years later, when Wu Yue was surrounded by children and grandchildren and lived a life of luxury, she realized how correct the decision she had made was.
At this time, Wu Yue was standing in the middle of the room, not knowing how to express the joy in her heart.
Seeing that she agreed, Jiang Hongyu asked her to call Wu Jiang in and repeated what he had just said to Wu Yue.
Wu Jiang was a little hesitant: "Boss, Xiaoyue is sixteen now?"
"Brother, you promised me that you would let me decide my marriage myself. When our lives get better in the future, a good marriage will come naturally. I have decided to follow the boss, and no one can stop me." Wu Yue's expression was serious and resolute.
She doesn't want to get married, she wants to make money.
Wu Jiang sighed for a moment and nodded: "Okay, you can make your own decisions on your own affairs."
Ye Mingzhu didn't expect it to be so smooth. Did the ancients have no aversion to slavery at all?
In fact, if Ye Mingzhu didn't buy the farm, the Wu Jiang family would have to find a way out. Although they lived better than ordinary tenant farmers, they had experienced too many good days and naturally didn't want to live a poor life.
In addition, Wu Jiang promised his mother that he would let Wu Yue make her own decisions, and they have become accustomed to it over the years.
In this case, Ye Mingzhu asked Wu Jiang to go down and she would talk to Wu Yue about how to make sugar.
Jiang Hongyu stood up on his own accord. He took Ye Yunan outside and watched a group of children eat.
They had only been at the farm for two days, so it was better to be cautious when it came to something as important as sugar production.
