"Talk to your family about what I said. If you want to open one, I'll help you keep an eye out for shops in the city. If you don't have enough money, I can lend you some first."
Kou Yunyi looked at her seriously and gave her instructions.
Ji Changying nodded with a smile: "Got it! I will write to you."
She took Kou Yun's opinion to heart and then lowered the curtain.
"Hmph! You two are whispering here, are you saying bad things about me behind my back?!"
Zhang Leyao's carriage came forward, and she lifted the curtain with an angry look on her face.
Ji Changying rolled her eyes: "Do you want to stay and plant rice? I see that the maids and servants around you are not satisfied with their work! How about you ask them to stay and help?"
Zhang Leyao glared at her and was about to call her a fool when Chunliu beside her quickly coaxed her, "Girl! We have to get going quickly, otherwise we'll be resting in the wild at night."
Zhang Leyao snorted and pointed at Ji Changying: "You'd better not enter Liangzhou City again!"
Ji Changying made a childish face and said, "I'll go, I'll go, and make you mad to death!"
The old woman beside her felt her scalp tingle, and yelled at the driver outside: "Hurry up!"
The driver was also tortured here. When he heard this, he whipped the horse's butt and the carriage immediately started to drive out.
Zhang Leyao unwillingly leaned out of the window and yelled at Ji Changying, "This city is my territory. If I see you there again, I will beat you up!"
Ji Changying hooked her finger at her: "Come on, come and hit me!"
Zhang Leyao was so angry that she wanted to jump out of the car to fight her, but the old woman and maid inside carried her back.
Ji Changchuan couldn't bear to look at her: "Sister, you are so boring and childish!"
Ji Changying patted his head in a good mood: "What do you know? This is called teasing a dog!"
——
Because of spring plowing, this ten-day holiday is three days long.
When Ji Fengyi and others were about to go back, only half of the work in the fields was left.
Ji Changchuan pulled his father and sister with concern: "If there is anything happening at home in the future, you must tell me the first time. Even though I am studying now, I can still give you some advice. Next time, you can't wait until I come back to find out like this time."
There is nothing to be desired after a good harvest.
Sometimes he really couldn't tell whether he had given birth to a son or a 'father' for himself.
Ji Changying nodded honestly: "I know, I know. I will tell you earlier next time."
Ji Changchuan said solemnly, "A gentleman's promise is as valuable as gold. You cannot go back on your word."
Ji Fengshou replied weakly, "I understand."
Ji Fengyi frowned at his brother's listless appearance. "I've taken the oxcart home with me. I'll try to come back every day during this period. You take good care of the house and be sure to be alert at all times."
To prevent those people from making a comeback.
He didn't finish the rest of the words, but Ji Fengshou understood.
He felt a little helpless. It was bad enough that he was worried about his own son, but why was his own brother like this too!
After seeing them off, the remaining work in the fields still had to be done.
Because You Tianming had invented a new plow for sowing, many families in the village came to him to place orders. As a result, they no longer had to work in the fields, but they still had to get up early and work late to make tools.
For the rest of the season, he simply let Mrs. Hu go home and rest. He would move a chair and sit on the edge of the field all day, like a landlord, with his legs crossed, watching the twelve laborers work.
They should take a break now because when they finish their farm work, they will have to go to their father-in-law's house to help! There will be no way to be lazy then...
"Brother Ji! Something happened, go back and take a look!"
A shout came from the side of the road, which scared Ji Fengshou so much that he almost fell off his chair.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Ji Fengshou stood up quickly as if he was scalded by a chair and looked at the person who came.
The village chief gasped, "Ouch! It's all your Ji family's fault! Didn't your widow's son hit matchmaker Gao on the head last time? Now Liu Quezi and the Gao family are here to force a marriage! The sedan chair has been carried to the door. If we hadn't stopped it, the people would have been dragged away!"
The people of Xiaotian Village have always had a bad reputation, but Liu Quezi from the neighboring village is not someone to be trifled with, otherwise he wouldn't dare to bring his men to the village to rob people so openly.
When Ji Fengshou heard this, he hurried back. On the way, the village chief told him the background of Liu Quezi.
Liu Quezi was born into an ordinary family. He had two brothers, and because he was the younger one and was born prematurely, his parents favored him a little.
As a result, this man was spoiled and developed bad habits. When he was young, he was lazy, addicted to gambling and lustful. He was too ambitious and looked down on farming work, so he followed others to the city. As a result, he ended up owing a huge debt.
In order to save his life, his parents sold everything in the house to pay off their debts, and he had one of his legs crippled before he could survive.
But as a result, the family was left penniless, and the two brothers were still unmarried even when they reached the right age.
Finally, Liu Quezi's eldest brother left his hometown quietly one day. When he came back many years later, he had already become the captain of a thousand men in Tieling Guard.
"Liu Shugen is really lucky. I heard he was promoted because of his great achievements in the battle against the barbarians and was appreciated by his superiors. After he came back, he beat up everyone who had bullied his family, especially those who came to collect debts. They all had their legs broken!"
"Don't act impulsively later. Try to persuade them kindly. If that doesn't work, think of another way."
The village chief, remembering the kindness he had shown them by giving them grain seeds, kindly reminded them again.
Ji Fengshou was not an ungrateful person, so he thanked him solemnly.
The two hurried to the gate of the Lin family's courtyard, where people from both sides were confronting each other.
The people from Xiaotian Village pointed at a middle-aged man in front of the sedan chair. He was a bit plump and well-dressed, and said, "Mrs. Ji said she didn't want to marry. Did you guys not listen or what?"
Lin and Ji Ruofeng were at the back of the crowd, their faces still a little frightened.
Ji Changying was standing aside, looking coldly at the familiar figure behind Liu Quezi.
It was Huang Dadao and his brothers who robbed Gou'er's house.
At this moment, he was standing behind Liu Quezi with his chest straight. When he saw Ji Changying looking over, he glared at her fiercely.
Liu Quezi waved his hand behind him, and Huang Dadao immediately took a step forward attentively, half-bending his knees to let Liu Quezi sit on it.
"Mrs. Lin, stop hiding. We fell in love the moment we met on the street that day. I even touched your hand, and that's when I asked a matchmaker to propose marriage. How could you turn your back on me? Look how you beat the matchmaker up. She almost lost her life!"
