After Su Li finished talking to the children, Xie Zhengchuan calmed down his resentment towards his husband and thought that he could finally have a private conversation with his wife.
But before the two of them could say a few words, Xie Zhenghe came over and saw Xie Zhengchuan looking at him with some resentment. Xie Zhenghe rolled his eyes.
"What are you looking at me with? I came to discuss something with you guys."
Su Li smiled, stood up, poured Xie Zhenghe a cup of tea and said, "Brother, ignore him. He was just annoyed by the child."
Xie Zhenghe took the tea and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Haha, nothing, it's just that Hu Zi has been a little naughty recently. Big brother, what's wrong with you?"
Xie Zhenghe took a sip of hot water and sighed: "It's really difficult!"
It was the first time that Su Li and Xie Zhengchuan saw Xie Zhenghe show this expression. They looked at each other.
"Brother?"
Xie Zhenghe waved his hand and said, "Actually, this has been spread in the village for a long time, but I thought we were all from the same village and would see each other every day, so I didn't take it seriously."
"What the hell is going on, brother?"
"Isn't that right? Third sister-in-law, there were only a few people in your garment factory before, and the business was just moderate. It was nothing special, but it kept getting bigger and bigger. After only one year, you bought tractors and trucks. Some people got jealous and said that you...you must have embezzled a lot of money when you and Uncle Waishan founded the brown sugar factory. Uncle Waishan found out about this, and he picked up a few people who were gossiping and asked them to look at the brigade's accounts. The accountant calculated everything for them. They actually knew in their hearts that they were talking nonsense, but they were still unwilling to accept it."
Su Li and Xie Zhengchuan were stunned when they heard this, they really didn't know about this, they thought Li Waishan must have kept it a secret.
"No, big brother, the innocent are innocent. Now that people think so, no matter how you explain it, it's useless. Even if Uncle Waishan showed them the accounts, they can still say that they falsified the accounts."
"Hey, this matter can be big or small. If it goes wrong, it might alert the higher-ups. If they are investigated, Zhengchuan will have to go. He just got promoted, and if his family members go out, it won't be good for him."
Xie Zhengchuan cursed in his heart, his voice so cold that it seemed to break ice, "Humph, who is my wife working so hard for? Why didn't they say there was a problem with the account when they divided the money? Xiaoli hasn't been in charge of the brown sugar factory for a long time. Now she's talking nonsense, I'm afraid she wants benefits!"
Xie Zhenghe hesitated for a moment, then continued: "Hey, isn't it? Several families in the village took the lead in looking for Uncle Waishan, saying that the clothing factory was opened in Shanghe Village, and they had to give some money to the village at the end of the year, otherwise it would be forgetful."
Su Li laughed and said, "Brother, to be honest, this is what I think. Last time when I was sorting out the accounts of the garment factory, I thought that the garment factory was in the village, and if I didn't give everyone a little money, people would gossip about it more or less. I also asked Lu Shengnian to help settle the accounts, but I haven't had time to tell my eldest and second sisters-in-law yet. Now, I don't want to tell them anymore. If I give them money at the end of the year, it seems like I'm afraid of them. If I give them money this year, will they interfere in the affairs of my factory next year?"
Xie Zhenghe smiled bitterly and nodded: "That's right. You can't say anything if you come here. You worked hard to support this factory, but rumors can kill people. What are you two going to do now? I'm worried too! This group of people are simply scoundrels! Especially Xie Wansan's family and those families."
Xie Zhengchuan said: "Brother, if they insist on making trouble, I will ask Liu Maoshan to bring people to check the accounts, and then we will check them one by one and hold a meeting in the threshing ground to clarify. Anyone who has any objections can speak up on the spot."
Xie Zhenghe thought for a while and looked at Xie Zhengchuan.
"Yes, that's fine. I'll let the accountant support it. The accountant is an honest person, and everyone knows it. In fact, everyone knows that this is fake, but it's just a fuss. It will be troublesome if someone from above comes to investigate."
Su Li looked at Xie Zhenghe's irritability and felt that she had caused him trouble. Xie Zhenghe must have been gossiped about a lot. After all, Pan Yumei was now the owner of a garment factory. She was a widow who had married for the second time and could live so well now. She didn't know what those people would say in private. Sometimes, women would make things difficult for other women, even worse than men. The words they said were like knives, and every word drew blood.
"In fact, they do this just to get benefits. Some people in the village sincerely want you to live a good life, but some people can't bear to see you live a good life. Brother, my factory will definitely not give them any money. I will bite my death to do this, but you can do it!"
Xie Zhenghe was stunned, "Me?"
Su Li continued, "Yes, big brother, I saw Li Dan, Tie Dan and their brothers playing with clay by the river. The clay is of very good quality, and I think it is very suitable for burning bricks. You can build a brick kiln factory, and people from nearby villages can come to work. You are the village chief, and you can call on everyone to contribute money and labor to set up the factory. Whoever contributes more money will get the lion's share, and at the end of the year, the money will be divided according to the proportion. Those who don't contribute can contribute labor and move bricks by themselves. They can earn a lot every month even if they do odd jobs, but there will be no dividends at the end of the year."
Xie Zhenghe stood up immediately after hearing this and said excitedly: "Sister-in-law, what you said is true. If this brick kiln can be built, everyone in our village will be able to live in a brick house."
"It's true, but this situation needs to be planned in detail. Oh, and I also need to make this situation and my clarification speech together in the threshing ground."
"Yes, yes, yes, we should say them together. This is good, this is good!"
Su Li shook his head and said, "Brother, this is not necessarily a good thing. Some people won't pay unless they see the money. If you stop this person, there will be many people behind. In fact, brother, you have two hills and so many fruit trees. You can build a canning factory in the county in the future. There is no need to be the village chief. Not to mention the fatigue and the low salary, the key is that you always suffer. Why bother? You can help the villagers even if you are not the village chief."
"This is different, Third Wife, I am not the village chief, and some things are easy to do but hard to say!"
"Brother, you just need to think it through on your own. However, since the country's current policies are so good, it would be very appropriate to open a canning factory in the county. I can help you get the machinery. Don't worry about not having fruits now. I have friends in the provincial capital who can contact fruit merchants in the south."
Of course, there were no fruit merchants. The fruits in her space were all stored in the warehouse. Even though Sixth Master wanted a large quantity, her stock was not enough. Every time Sixth Master delivered a batch of fruits and grains, her space would have a good harvest again.
If she had a canning factory, not only would she have an extra channel to sell the fruit, but she could also make canned meat from the pigs, cattle and sheep that were everywhere on the mountains in her space.
Just think about it, it’s a lot of money.
Xie Zhenghe lowered his head and thought for a while without saying anything.
Xie Zhengchuan said, "Brother, this is such a great opportunity. Xiaoli is thinking about the children at home. When Lai Fu grows up, can you let him come back to inherit your orchard? If the family conditions are better, the children can also go out to see the world and go to college. And brother, isn't going to college something you regret?"
Xie Zhenghe took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'll go home and discuss it with Yumei. Thank you very much, Third Daughter-in-law. You helped Zhengyang build the pig farm and my orchard. Your two sisters-in-law are in the garment factory. Everything you do is for our Xie family. Thank you very much."
Su Liyu: "You're welcome, big brother. Actually, I have my own selfish motives. My younger brother doesn't make much money in the steel factory. I have advised him to stop working there several times, but he just couldn't bear to do it. If you are willing, you can help my younger brother and let him start a canning factory with you."
"Why should I help him? You should help all of us. I will think about this carefully. As for the brick kiln factory, I will go back and discuss it with your sister-in-law."
"Okay, big brother, take your time."
"Oh, okay."
Su Li looked at Xie Zhenghe's distant back and smiled, then said to Xie Zhengchuan, "Brother is so nice. I used to think he was dull, but now I realize that's not the case. He is so gentle to sister-in-law and always thinks of discussing everything with her."
Xie Zhengchuan pinched her face and asked, "Am I not okay?"
Su Li looked around to see if there was anyone around, then she put her arm around his waist.
"You want it too, you're the best."
Xie Zhengchuan smiled and kissed her forehead, then pressed her into his arms, he breathed a sigh of relief, and exclaimed that it was so comfortable to hold his wife in his arms!
