At the beginning, Manxiu insisted that it was Yang Zhaozhao and his group who poisoned the cornmeal and demanded that Yang Zhaozhao and his group pay with their lives or settle the matter privately by paying money.
Yang Zhaozhao was too lazy to pay attention to them, and settling it privately was out of the question.
Yang Lie was no pushover when it came to investigating the case, and three days later, Manxiu confessed.
The other members of the Jin family all put the blame on Manxiu, and as the main culprit, she was arrested.
After this, Manxiu's family became famous in Fengcheng, and everyone was talking about it.
The Jin family even came to Grandma Cui's house to plead, "They've all been arrested. Since we're not directly involved, can you please let them go this time?"
Yang Zhaozhao refused: "No!"
The Jin family was furious: "Who do you think you are? You have no right to speak here. Let Aunt Cui speak."
In their view, Yang Zhaozhao, an outsider, was a troublemaker. If it weren't for her, the Jin family wouldn't have become the laughing stock of the whole city.
Yang Zhaozhao's position is indeed a bit awkward, and it is definitely not the courage that Liang Jingru gave her.
The protective Cui Nai said, "Zhao Zhao represents me. She has the final say on everything in our family. Don't think I don't know what you're thinking."
"I'm telling you, I won't settle this privately. Even if you all kneel before me, forget it!"
With Cui Nai's words, Yang Zhaozhao seemed to have taken the imperial sword. She held a basin of cold water and poured it over him mercilessly: "Get out! Don't dirty this place."
It's just past midnight and the temperature in the north is still below zero.
No one feels good when a basin of cold water is poured on them.
They looked at the aggressive Yang Zhaozhao and cursed, "Aunt Cui, you are old and confused. You don't even know that you have been cheated. She is only after your money."
"If you don't listen to my advice now, you'll cry later."
"My mother is dead, and you still don't let her rest in peace. Be careful, my mother will come to find you at night."
Cui Nai was furious: "Get lost! Zhao Zhao and the others are not what you say they are. They are very nice!"
Yang Zhaozhao stated: "Just let your mother come. I'm not afraid of people, so why would I be afraid of ghosts?"
Arrogant, really arrogant!
Yang Zhaozhao's domineering words made them feel embarrassed and humiliated.
Knowing that a private settlement was impossible, they left reluctantly, waiting for Jin Yuanbao to come out.
Fortunately, the weather is cold, and the corpse will not rot even if it is left for more than ten days.
Manxiu was arrested and charged with crimes, and was sentenced to three years in prison.
Jin Yuanbao sold everything he had and borrowed some money to bury Man Xiuniang.
From then on, he hated Yang Zhaozhao and the others to the core.
Yang Zhaozhao didn't take the gold ingots seriously at all.
After this incident, all the neighbors in the surrounding area knew that Yang Zhaozhao and his family were not easy to mess with, and it was best not to provoke Cui Nai's family.
The lightest punishment is imprisonment, and the worst is death.
Yang Zhaozhao's life was not affected. He read books and did exercises every day. He also called the society and said that they would gather after the Lantern Festival.
Yang Zhaozhao and his friends decided to return to the Xishe Society after the Lantern Festival.
They are educated youth and must be working on the farm.
Cui Nai was reluctant to do so.
Cui Nai's health has recovered well recently. She can walk a few steps with the help of a cane and speak more fluently.
After a checkup at the hospital, the doctor said that the recovery was going well and asked me to keep my breast milk.
After discussing with Cui Nai, Cui Nai and the others were willing to follow the farm and live together so that they could take care of each other.
Yang Zhaozhao agreed. After all, she was worried about leaving Cui Nai and Xiao Cui to others.
On the Lantern Festival, Yang Zhaozhao took out glutinous rice balls, both with flower and black sesame fillings.
When Yang Zhaozhao was getting dark, he saw people setting up small stalls making and selling glutinous rice balls for Yuanxiao, as well as other small vendors setting up their stalls.
After a while, many people came out to seek jobs.
On the night of the Lantern Festival, Wang Xiaowei came to our house. He had also come during the Spring Festival and brought a few black truffles that he had dug from the mountains. He was reluctant to eat them.
Yang Zhaozhao accepted the black truffles, gave five kilograms of rice and flour, and a piece of meat.
Wang Xiaowei knew they were going back to the farm tomorrow, so he wanted to ask Yang Zhaozhao for help: "Sister Zhaozhao, do you have any goods? I want to do some small business."
Yang Zhaozhao raised an eyebrow: "Fengcheng is open?"
"Pretty much. I've been asking around, and nowadays, people are just running small businesses on the street, not just speculating and profiteering like they used to. The higher-ups will turn a blind eye."
"I don't have a job, and my family doesn't have any land. I'm just sitting around doing nothing every day, and there's no future for me." Wang Xiaowei was embarrassed. "Besides, I can set up a stall now. No one will come over there in the underworld."
Yang Zhaozhao thought about it and after a few seconds, he said, "I do have some supplies. If you really want to do business, we can form a partnership."
Wang Xiaowei's eyes lit up.
Yang Zhaozhao said, "Let's open a grocery store first. It should be about 40 to 50 square meters, on the roadside, with convenient transportation and many residents nearby."
We discussed the location of the supermarket and other issues, and left the errands to Wang Xiaowei.
Yang Zhaozhao doesn’t have much time to make money for the time being because she has to take the college entrance examination.
It is impossible to be trapped in Fengcheng in this life.
Soon the educated youth could return to their hometown, but they could only return to Peicheng. Yang Zhaozhao's goal was Beijing, and he had to stay in the capital for a few days.
With hundreds of thousands of dollars in her hands, she must seize the opportunity to make a fortune and become a super rich person.
Yang Zhaozhao, who has regained his memories before traveling through the book, has little ambition. He just wants to increase his wealth several times compared to before traveling through the book and become the richest man in the country.
Li Yiling listened to Yang Zhaozhao and Wang Xiaowei enthusiastically planning the layout of the grocery store, and looked at Yang Zhaozhao's glowing face, which made him fascinated.
Noticing his gaze, Yang Zhaozhao turned her head to look.
Just when she caught Li Yiling, who was infatuated with her, Yang Zhaozhao smiled and said, "Li Zhiqing, you're looking at me so seductively, is that..." She uttered a teasing word, and looking at Li Yiling, who blushed, she kindly retracted it and said, "Is there something on my face?"
Li Yiling was so embarrassed that he almost managed to find a three-bedroom apartment.
He shook his head and said dejectedly that he would take a trip.
Yang Zhaozhao laughed: "Idiot!"
Wang Xiaowei, who was suddenly fed with dog food, said: "Then I will look for a storefront and call the agency soon. Sister Zhaozhao will come back to check it out."
"Okay!" Yang Zhaozhao nodded, and the grocery store was confirmed.
That night, Li Yiling did not sleep well. He had a dream that Yang Zhaozhao crawled into his quilt, making him feel hot all over.
Upon waking up and looking at his dirty pants, Li Yiling wanted to slap himself: "You bastard!"
We were going back to the farm today, so after packing up our things and making arrangements, Yang Zhaozhao and his group rode their bicycles to Cui Nai'an bus station.
When we arrived at the farm, it was already past one in the afternoon.
When Grandma Wang saw Grandma Cui and the others return, she smiled and said, "You're finally back. You look well. How are you doing in the city?"
"Okay!" Yang Zhaozhao settled Grandma Cui down and took some candies and melon seeds to Grandma Wang. Grandma Wang helped to clean the house and do the sanitation.
We also chatted about the situation in the village and the matters concerning the educated youth.
Lin Xiaohua gave birth to a daughter.
Zhao Wenwen did not return to her hometown in the end. The educated youth had pointed her out, but she and Lin Chao got together and said they were dating.
Li Lihua has not returned to the educated youth point yet.
Yang Zhaozhao also understood a little about some other things.
The only thing that surprised Yang Zhaozhao was that Zhao Wenwen was actually with Lin Chaoyu, which was not what was written in the book.
But come to think of it, Yang Zhaozhao's fate was changed. Lin Xiaohua's daughter was born and was said to be very fair and plump, weighing eight kilograms.
Then it wouldn't matter if Zhao Wenwen's life trajectory changed a little.
After Yang Zhaozhao regained some of his memories, he no longer followed the original plot after resetting himself. It was like the domino effect and the butterfly effect.
Just as Yang Zhaozhao and the others had settled in, there was a knock on the door.
