Chapter 252: Bitter Meat Scheme
When Sun Lichang heard this, his eyes sank, a cheap girl who fled from the wilderness dared to lose his face like this.
He is the lieutenant chief, in charge of the affairs and affairs of several nearby villages, who dares to offend him, then don't think about living a peaceful life in the future!
However, Sun Lichang also has scruples in his heart. After all, the Gu family is not a family without support, and it is protected by the county lieutenant. And the Gu family went to Fucheng once, and also climbed to the official eunuchs in Fucheng, which he couldn't compare.
Sun Lichang is very jealous, what kind of luck is this Gu family? Why doesn't his Sun family have such good luck?!
"Captain, what should we do?" The man in his forties, dressed in a green shirt, asked in a low voice.
Sun Lichang can sit in the position of Li Chang, and he is not a fool, he knows that the Gu family has a good relationship with the Jiang County Wei family, and he also knows that the Lu family has suffered a big loss at the hands of the Gu family.
However, he came prepared today.
Sun Lichang's back moved behind him, and an old man in a patched robe took a few steps forward and arched his hand at Gu Jinli: "Little doll, you misunderstood, today Sun Lichang came to Gu's workshop to ask for tofu and seasoning spices, and he was forced by us." ”
The old man wiped his tears and said, "Several villages near us are poor, and in addition to farming, every family can only work as coolies to earn money, and the money they can earn is only enough to support their families. If one of the family members is sick, the whole family will have to go hungry, let alone build a house for an adult man to marry a daughter-in-law......"
"We learned that you made tofu and spices, and thought that these two things could make money, so we cheekily knelt down and begged Sun Lichang to come to your workshop to make peace, and begged your workshop to sell us tofu and spices."
"Sun Lichang was forced by us to have no choice, so he brought us here, don't be angry, it's all the fault of us old men, and it has nothing to do with Sun Lichang."
Gu Jinli smiled, he really came prepared, this is a hard thing to see, and it will be changed into a bitter love drama?
"So, if you are poor, you need help from others, right?" Gu Jinli said very politely: "You go to ten miles and eight towns and ask, which family is because they are too poor, so they go to force others to help?" ”
"Besides, our family is not rich, the real rich family is the Cheng family of Zou County, the big family in the county, the official family of Fucheng, no matter how poor it is, the Lu family is richer than our family. If you want someone to help, go find them, don't gather around the door of our workshop. ”
Damn, do you really think they can do whatever they want when they come and cry a few times?
If you want to buy and sell, you want to be the master of their Gu family's workshop, no way!
The old man was stunned, he didn't expect Gu Jinli to say such a thing, no matter how he said that he was also an old man, and he came deliberately dressed in tatters, crying and begging, why wasn't she soft-hearted at all?
Liang Zhuzi was taking a few villagers to get tofu, and when he saw that the gate of Gu's workshop was surrounded, he didn't come in, but stood outside and watched, and after hearing what the old man said, he finally couldn't help but sneer: "Uncle Village Chief, your fourth child just went to the town yesterday, but he brought a lot of good things back, and there are three cotton cloths alone, and he also said in the village that the cotton cloth is for you to make spring shirts." What's wrong now, Liang Laosi didn't make new clothes for you, so you always wear rags to go out, this is unfilial. ”
"This can't be done, I'm going to help you report to the official, accuse Liang Laosi of a crime of unfilial piety, and let him be exiled to the army!"
Whether it is Da Chu or the previous dynasty, they all pay attention to governing the country with filial piety, and if their children are not filial, they will be sentenced heavily.
The old man who spoke was the village chief of Lianghe Village, and when he heard this, he was anxious, hurriedly turned around, and said to Liang Zhuzi: "What are you talking nonsense? When did my fourth child become unfilial? ”
Liang Zhuzi put down his burden, strode over, pulled the clothes of the village chief Liang and said: "The fourth child of your family is wearing clothes made of new cotton, but you are allowed to wear such tattered, isn't it unfilial?" ”
"Let's take a look, this is the evidence of Liang Laosi's disobedience and unfilial piety." Liang Zhuzi said to several Lianghe villagers who came to get the goods: "We are from Lianghe Village, we can't watch the old village chief suffer, even if we don't do business today, we have to seek justice for the old village chief." ”
"That's right, we can't let the old village chief be abused by Liang Laosi, let's accompany the old village chief to report to the official and sue him for Liang Laosi!" The villagers of Lianghe Village said.
Village Chief Liang panicked, hurriedly pulled back his clothes, and shouted at Liang Zhuzi: "Zhuzi, you have no conscience, what nonsense are you talking nonsense?" My family is poor, everyone in the family wears patched clothes, and the fourth child in my family is not unfilial. ”
Liang Zhuzi heard Village Chief Liang's words, looked at Village Chief Liang, and was extremely disappointed: "Uncle Village Chief, why have you become like this?" ”
Village Chief Liang has no skills, but he is not bad, and he will not deliberately embarrass the villagers and pick the villagers' food and silver, but today Village Chief Liang actually followed Sun Lichang to Gu's workshop to do this kind of thing to forcibly buy tofu and seasoning spices.
This tofu and seasoning spices belong to the Gu family, and the Gu family can sell it to whoever they want, and they insist on buying it, what's going on? Are they bullies?
When Village Chief Liang heard this, his old face turned red, and he hurriedly pulled Liang Zhuzi to the side, and begged him in a low voice: "Zhuzi, Uncle doesn't want to come today, but Sun Lichang said that the village chiefs of the five nearby villages are all coming, and if they don't come, they won't be able to eat and walk around." ”
"You also know that our village, the village is poor, although my uncle is the village head, he has no backer, and he can't withstand the toss of Sun Lichang."
Liang Zhuzi is also related to Village Chief Liang, and he knows that Village Chief Liang is a person, and he is not the kind of wicked person who will bully the villagers.
"But why did you say that? Use that kind of bitter haha to persecute the Gu family? ”
Village Chief Liang had a bitter face: "Do you think I am willing to say such offending words?" It's not that I'm the thinnest, the oldest, and look pitiful. ”
Sun Lichang said that he looked the most miserable, so let him say those bitter words, which would make people more believable.
Liang Zhuzi said angrily: "Then why don't you come and tell us first?" Now that you are making such a fuss with them, can the Gu family still give us tofu and seasoning spices? Uncle Village Chief, you are going to cut off the lives of our families! ”
If it weren't for the fact that he was thinking of the same village and the same clan, and the affection for his relatives and relatives, Liang Zhuzi really wanted to beat up the village chief Liang.
Village Chief Liang was yelled at, and his eyes turned red: "Do you think I don't want to tell you in advance?" But we didn't make it home last night, and Sun Li ......"
Village Chief Liang glanced at Sun Lichang and said in a lower voice: "Sun Lichang was afraid that we would regret it halfway, so after inviting us to his house for dinner and wine yesterday, he didn't let us go back to the village. ”。
Village Chief Liang felt that he was very aggrieved, although he was poor, he had never done anything bad in his life, today this was the most excessive thing, and he was recognized by his nephew of the same clan on the spot, and he was scolded, and he lost all his face.
