Chapter 115 Li Lan is besieged
The courtyard is still lively, the family chatted with each other in the moonlight, Zhiping had just made trouble with his brother before, and then leaned over again, perhaps the atmosphere gradually quieted down, Zhixing simply hugged Zhiping and Zhimin together, the two children nestled obediently in his arms, Zhigao and Xiaobao also leaned on the side of Li Zhicun and Cai, talking softly.
And Geng Rong listened to Zhou Han talk about the things in front of Fumanlou today, and it was not enough to listen to it once, Zhou Han said it a second time with a bitter face.
In the rich moonlight, a thin light mist shrouded the whole house, Chungui looked up, only saw a light in the haze, she turned her head and saw Qi You on the other side looking at her quietly, patting the stone bench on the side.
Chungui smiled faintly, walked towards him and sat down again.
The two hands naturally clasped together, hidden under the cuffs and clasped tightly, heating each other.
At that time, Zhou Han was talking about his hint that Steward Fu was asking for trouble with Li Lan and Cai Hongyun, and Geng Rong applauded when he heard it.
Cai Shi was puzzled: "Then the steward still has the courage to make a big deal about this?" ”
Zhou Han sneered: "That dog's leg looks like a grudge, he has been high for so many years, and he was suddenly embarrassed by me in public, and he didn't dare to provoke me, as soon as I guided him like this, wouldn't he take the revenge on those two people." ”
Chungui turned his head: "What do you think?" ”
Qi You hooked the corners of his lips and shook his head:
"I'm afraid I don't dare to make a big move, but I'm afraid that the goat's milk promised to the villagers will not be successful, and if my sister-in-law receives any benefits, she must also spit it out with the belt meat."
Chungui's brows were slightly furrowed, and the most important thing in her heart was this one.
The villagers experienced the threat of provoking the first price increase, and she closed the shop to deal with it made them feel that they had cut off a business door, and it was their chagrin that Fumanlou proposed to collect goat's milk, which ignited their hopes, but today's incident passed, and it was obvious that this cooperation fell through.
Li Lan and Cai Hongyun, who act as the link between the two parties, are afraid that they will become the target of public criticism at this moment, and they have attracted the villagers' grudges, and there is a Fu steward who wants to retaliate in front of them.
And these villagers have encountered ups and downs, and their mood is better than Li Lan and the others at the moment.
Now she also has a new source of goods introduced by Guo Ruyi, and no matter how good her temperament is, she is not allowed to go back to collect goat milk from Xiaoliangshan.
Looking at it this way, the only people who have failed in their real interests are these greedy villagers.
The interests are in vain, how can these people be willing to give up, she has no one to disturb in this town, but Uncle Lizheng's family, as well as Daddy Li's family, I am afraid that they will be disturbed.
In this way, I still have to take the time to go back to Xiaoliangshan.
-
It turns out that Chun Gui was not wrong, and Qi You's prediction was right.
Fu steward was taught by Zhou Han in person, and when he turned around, the old man Chang lowered him to the gatekeeper to see the door, although he was in charge in the past, he was able to show off his might, and now he has become a porter, the days of being touted are gone, and a handful of bones have to suffer some hardships that have not been suffered before, and there are many people among those young and middle-aged men who have eaten him and hung up, and a little stumbling is enough for him to drink a pot.
didn't suffer from the weather for two days, and sure enough, he couldn't suppress his anger, and brought a few little guys who were still counting on him to make a comeback to Xiaoliangshan to make trouble.
In the summer rice throwing season, there are many villagers working at the entrance of the village, and Li Lan couldn't contact the manager for a long time, so she ran to Fumanlou to look for someone but saw that she had already changed the manager, and when she heard that she was looking for the manager, she was busy driving her away. In the past two days, a group of people went to Cheng Tianbao's house to arrest Li Lan as soon as they were free, and asked when they could send goat milk, but Li Lan couldn't say why, so the group of people panicked, and began to scold in the fields.
Clear-eyed people are like Li Zheng, the village chief and Daddy Li's family closed the door early when they saw this, Li Zhigao had to return to the spring and asked, don't pay attention to the next things, and stop asking after informing a few elders.
The crowd in the field was divided into two, half of them were fooled by Li Lan and kept screaming, and the other half were watching the excitement and not saying a word.
Until the steward led someone from the mountain path angrily, grabbed someone and asked Li Lan's house.
The passers-by pointed the way, and just as they passed in full view of everyone, a few small men kicked the closed gate violently.
opened his mouth and scolded: "Shameless Chang woman!" Give back the ten taels of silver! ”
They are all stingy boys, scolding whatever is dirty and smelly, and soon attracted everyone over.
Scolding like this, no matter how thick Rao's cheeks are, there is no face to hide in it, Cheng Tianbao opened the door and shouted: "What are you doing!" I'm going to report to the town again! ”
"Yo, can you give it up? Where's your daughter-in-law? Tell her to come out and pay it back! ”
Cheng Tianbao scolded and scolded, making a fierce appearance: "What kind of money, I'm not easy to mess with!" I'm going to do it again! ”
But who are these people, and who are the stewards, who have been in the restaurant for so many years, and have seen all the people of the three religions and nine streams, who would be afraid of this little villager.
Steward Fu came here with a face, just to breathe a sigh: "It's the official and the action, you have such a big breath, don't bother you kid to report to the official, if you don't pay back, I will report this official for you!" ”
"Those two shameless things, stirring up trouble, deceived me of ten taels of silver, I still think how powerful they are, they can call the wind and rain, dare to cheat money! I'm going to throw my face on the ground and stomp on your bones!" ”
As soon as the ten taels of silver came out, the people around were frightened and exclaimed.
"This Li Lan actually has silver to take!"
"Then aren't these aunts just calculated by her?"
"This is not a good thing, and Li Lanke is not a good person."
The villagers are not stupid, and after a little thought, they understand this calculation.
The others understood, and those who were provoked also understood, and in an instant, they were full of anger, and all of them had bad looks.
"Good! I also said that she and Cai Hongyun really thought about us, so they gritted their teeth and offended Chungui, and now it seems that we have been put on a show by them! ”
When this sentence came out, the crowd seemed to have an outlet, and they kept claiming that they were deceived by these two people, but they were scolded more fiercely than the person brought by the steward.
The lively one next to him said casually: "You too, how many evil things this Li Lan has done, my sister-in-law is stupid one by one, and I really believe her." ”
Although he said it to these fooled people, the steward was angry when he heard it, and he was angry and remorseful, how could he find these two fools in the first place!
Li Lan dared to take the lead, hiding at home and shivering, and didn't dare to come out for a long time, until the people outside joined forces and scolded: "If you don't come out again, a group of us will come directly to the door and pull you out!" See how long you can hide! ”
Cheng Tianbao couldn't do anything now, so he kept silent.
Li Lan came out trembling at this time, she has been arrogant for many years, but it is also in this acre and three points of land, it really makes her angry with the people from the town and the people in the village, she can't say anything.
Steward Fu gritted his teeth with hatred, and wanted to spread his hand and beat the woman in front of him, but he also knew that he could no longer withstand the toss, and today he could make her ugly in this township, and it would be almost the same to get back the ten taels of silver.
But Li Lan refused to respond for a long time, knowing that Steward Fu signaled a few little guys to beat people, so she was at a loss and said, "It's not that I don't want to pay it back!" Be...... It was my sister-in-law who also gave five taels! I only have five taels in my hand! ”
Although she didn't say that she would divide it equally, Li Lan was also there, so how could she enjoy the ten taels of silver alone.
But the steward can manage all this.
"When I handed it over to you, you naturally returned it, I don't care what cats and dogs you gave! You just gave it to the king of heaven, and you have to spit out this money for me! ”
Seeing that Li Lan's face was sad, he had a posture of crying for a while, he gritted his teeth and threatened: "If you refuse to pay it back...... Look what I can do to clean you up! ”
After a lot of intimidation, Li Lan still had no sense, and hurriedly shouted: "Return!" I still! ”
Before the steward could react, the rest of the villagers had already spit into the courtyard one by one.
"This kind of thing, dirty things have been done one after another, why didn't God send down thunder to kill her!"
"We have offended Chun Gui, and we have no income, this person is simply a scourge! And that Cai Hongyun! ”
"I have to go to Caijia Village and say! Everyone who calls these four towns and eight villages knows what this sister-in-law is! ”
Half of the people scolded and spitted, and the other half of the onlookers were also angry.
It's a good village, all the big and small things in the past year have been stirred up by this person, and if it goes on like this, how can there be a peaceful life!
Seeing that Li Lan was scolded so bloody, which disgusted people, Steward Fu felt a little more angry in his heart.
Li Lan trembled and turned around to take the silver, the five taels of silver in his hand were still not moved, and in Cheng Tianbao's angry eyes, he took out five taels from home and added them, and after the ten taels of silver were offered with both hands, he was so frightened that he hid back by the door, avoiding the eyes of several small people and did not dare to move again, for fear of being beaten.
took the money, Li Lan also saw that there was no good life, so Steward Fu snorted coldly and left.
The crowd was still pointing, and Cheng Tianbao's thick skin couldn't stand it, and as soon as the door of the couple was closed, Li Lan felt better.
How could Li Lan give up after posting five taels of silver, and went to her mother's house to find Cai Hongyun to ask for another five taels.
It's a pity that Cai Hongyun got the five taels, and she had already added a private house, so how could she spit it out again, no matter how Li Lan coerced, she finally called her own mother out, Li Lan and her mother were greedy for money and greedy, and half of the five taels of silver was kept by herself, so she spilled the water from her daughter who married out one by one, and she was stunned to drive people out.
Of course, the last five taels of silver didn't come back, which is a later story.
Besides, after Xiaoliangshan made such a fuss, those villagers finally realized that this goat's milk money could not be earned, and they immediately hated and scolded Li Lan, blocking the door for a while to no avail, so they could only scold and scatter back.
If they hadn't tasted the sweetness of more than ten cents a day, this group of people would not have such a big reaction, but the bad thing is that they have tasted a lot of sweetness, and now they are suddenly falling short, and they are all burning and anxious. also felt that he was instigated by Li Lan, so he couldn't really offend Chungui.
A bunch of people gathered around to ponder, I don't know which one took the lead, and made up their minds to pull one, after thinking about it, it was naturally Chungui who was good to speak, but they also felt that they didn't have the face to go to the door to intercede, and someone happened to ask Li Zheng or Daddy Li to help.
Isn't this cheeky harassment that Li is going with Daddy Li's family?
