lady, please calm down

Chapter 118
The seventh day of the twelfth lunar month.

Noon at noon.

"Is there any law for the king? God damn troublemaker!"

Lizheng, the patriarch Zhou Ba, and his wife Jiang fell down on the muddy ground outside the courtyard in Zhoujiazhuang. Jiang, who was as fat as a mountain of meat, was crying and cursing three times while patting his thigh.

Just now, a group of killers rushed from Luliuwei next door, like demon gods descended from the sky, they first overturned several companions of the Zhou family, and then broke the legs of their beloved son Zhou Wu. Smash it.

All the villagers in Zhoujiazhuang were stunned.

The joint defense team mixed the fleeing households Qingzhuang and Luliuxu villagers, and set up three teams with a total of 33 people.

It sounds like a small number of people, but this force cannot be underestimated in Tongshan County.

Even those smuggling caravans that cross the state and government supported by the Cai family and the Ximen family have only a dozen or so core members who dare to fight.

The rest of the strong men and strong men are just to make up the number of people for a scene.

In the joint defense team, because of the existence of fleeing households, there is a bit of unruly temperament, and with Liu Erhu's incident as a precedent, the villagers in Luliuxu only know the boss and don't care about others.

In time, even if they are allowed to attack the officers and soldiers, they will probably scramble for the first.

At noon, I finished work and called it a day.

Liu Siliang drove an ox cart, and carefully lifted Zhou Zongfa up with several defense members, and then dragged the distraught Wang and the girl, and left Zhoujiazhuang.

The little girl of the Zhou family who was so frightened made Chen Chu couldn't help but think of the tiger head back then, so she hugged her and asked, "Little girl, what's your name?"

"My name is Niuniu."

"Where's your name?"

"Niu Niu doesn't have a name."

"Well, uncle, let's give Niuniu a name, um, it's better to call her Zhiruo."

Chen Chu, the eccentric who likes to name people, started to itch again, and the leader Da Lang turned around and asked, "Brother Chu, shall we go back to Zhuangzi?"

"The eldest son brings people back to the village, and we will send Brother Fa to Shuanghe Village directly."

Chen Chulue pondered for a moment.

Zhoujiazhuang.

The windows of Zhou Ba's house were shattered, the pots and bowls were rotten, and even the door panels were torn down by the gang and thrown outside the courtyard.

The house was smashed, and Aiko's leg was broken.

They have always been the only ones who have bullied others, and when have they been bullied like this.

However, Zhou Ba and his wife knew that Chen Chu was the head of the county, even if they found the county government, it might not be useful.

After crying for a long time, the obese Jiang finally slapped his thigh, "Go to Tanggu and make the decision for me!"

Jiang's cousin is Cai Yuan Cai Lushi's wife, so Zhou Ba only called out "my family" when he saw Chen Chu.

Cousin!Take care of your good son-in-law!

Luliuwei.

The scene of the joint defense team dispatching all with sticks and sticks is naturally impossible to hide from others.

When Maoer heard about it, he thought something serious had happened, so he hurriedly dragged his slightly uncomfortable body, got dressed and got up.

She followed Cuiyuan to inquire, but she didn't get a general idea.

Fortunately, the eldest son is back.
Mao'er was also slightly annoyed when he learned that a new employee at Luliuwei had his leg broken.

Hearing it again, after being rescued and sent to Shuanghe Village, Mao'er couldn't help being taken aback.

Hearing again, knowing that the original villagers of Shuanghe Village have now moved to other counties, Maoer is only shocked and moved.

She naturally guessed the reason why the officials wanted to move the villagers to other counties.

Is it because of this that officials and cauliflower snakes are false and obedient?
With a tangled face, she looked melancholy at the rare sunshine in winter, and after a long silence, she gave an order: "Cuiyuan, take a few sets of quilts, rice flour, grain and oil from home. Let's go to Shuanghe Village."

Before going out, Mao'er took out the silver hairpin with flower and butterfly pattern that the official gave her from her bun and put it into the jewelry box, and then chose a one-two-weight round-headed silver hairpin from the box and put it on her head.

This hairpin with a round head is unremarkable, but fortunately it is worth some money because of its weight.

Inside the box, there are seven or eight identical hairpins.

Yunong once asked why my sister made so many identical hairpins at once.

The cat said, in order to send someone
Shuanghe Village.

Because the villagers moved away and there were many vacant houses, under the arrangement of the old servant Cai Shu, Zhou Zulin and others carried Zhou Zongfa into an empty courtyard for resettlement.

Chen Chu sent someone to the city to ask for a bone doctor.

"It's just a bad breath!" Zhou Zulin thought of the scene where his boss knocked Zhou Wu's right leg, and got goosebumps all over his body, and then he was worried about Zhou Zongfa's injury, "Brother Fa's leg, I don't know how to heal it. what?"

The rest of the Zhouzhuang Farmers Association who were discussing excitedly outside the courtyard couldn't help being silent for a while, and someone whispered: "The owner is kind, even if Brother Fa is crippled, I think he will give Brother Fa a living."

"Hey"

Zhou Zulin sighed, although his companion's words were good, but a man of seven feet can rely on his strength to earn food, who would like to rely on others' charity.

In the courtyard, the host Cai Wei accompanied Chen Chu to visit Zhou Zongfa and walked out.

Through Tang Jing'an, I learned that the four or five men outside were the same batch of new employees who joined the Luliuwei Agricultural Reclamation Group this morning. When Chen Chu passed by, his expression suddenly darkened.

A few people offended the boss for some reason, and hurriedly lowered their heads and held their breath.

"Today's matter, I think you haven't officially joined the job yet, so don't worry about it with you. Next time, if a colleague is bullied and doesn't help, they will be fired together and will never be retained!"

Although Chen Chu was dissatisfied, he also knew that the villagers were in awe of the clan.

In the feudal era, the clan could be the protective umbrella over the villagers. When the villagers were in trouble, they found the patriarch to talk to the government, which was the only possibility for the people at the bottom to be treated fairly.

Just like "The White-haired Girl", which is very popular in Tongshan nowadays, the father and daughter of the Yang family were bullied by rogues because they left home and lost the protection of the clan.

If it is in the native land, with the protection of the clan, at least it will not be as tragic as being bullied.

Therefore, the word "leaving the country" may be a heavy word that is better than "family ruin" for the current people.

Without the clan, even if a person is alive, he is like a lonely ghost.

But at the same time, the patriarchs represented by Zhou Ba also regarded them as targets of exploitation, but the methods were milder. After all, the villagers were more or less as valuable as livestock in Zhou Ba's eyes.

The resignation of the tenant this time hurt the foundation of Zhou Ba's exploitation and blood-sucking, and that's why he used such a cruel method to warn the rest of the villagers who were about to move.

I didn't want to, but I met Chen Dutou, who was more domineering and protective than him.

He actually broke Zhou Wu's leg for a tenant farmer.

This matter seemed natural and comfortable to the tenant, but in the eyes of other gentry, Chen Dutou felt a little unreasonable.

However, in order to let the people at the bottom get rid of this kind of land-based dependency, Chen Chu had to provide a strong protection while secretly building a new production relationship, otherwise no one would mess with him in the future.

Leaving the courtyard, Chen Chu was thinking wildly, and his expression couldn't help being a little serious.

Cai Wei, who was walking aside, glanced sideways, then tiptoed with a smile and pinched Chen Chu's cheek, "Puppy, you are becoming more and more like an adult."

Well, whether Chen Chu is an adult or not, she has the right to speak.

"Was Zhou Papi related to your family?" Chen Chu asked casually.

"Damn relative, his wife is my mother's niece, and she's a distant relative. It's okay for my family to talk about it, but your way of snatching the tenant from him may cause dissatisfaction among the other squires."

Cai Hua reminded.

The two of them happened to arrive at the courtyard where Cai Hua lived.

Although Shuanghe Village cannot be said to be a remote village, it is not a prosperous place. A small courtyard with two entrances is already the best house in the village.

Cai Wei moved in in a hurry and hadn't had time to decorate, but a plaque of "Thrushcross Waterside Pavilion" was first hung on the door.

This is an ordinary two-entry courtyard, so there is no water pavilion.
Tsk~ Miss Landlord's damn petty bourgeois sentiment!

Chen Chu looked up and said, "Thrush water shoot."

"I don't know how to learn! That's the word 'xie'" Cai Hua corrected.

"Oh, it turns out that Nianxie! I also said, why did Hua'er write this private matter on the plaque, it's so shameful." Chen Chu looked shy.

"roll!"

Cai Wei stretched out her hand to pinch, but Chen Chu was already prepared to laugh and ran in, Cai Wei raised her skirt and chased after him, bumping into Uncle Zhang, she said angrily, "Uncle Zhang, take off the plaque on the door for me!"

"Huh? Picked it up? Just hung it up yesterday."

"I said I picked it up, so I picked it up!"

Cai Wei is quite unreasonable.

not yet.

The eldest son drove an ox cart full of objects, and slowly stopped in front of the small courtyard that had been assigned to Zhou Zongfa. The cat jumped out of the cart nimbly, with a concerned expression on his face.

Zhou Zulin and others gathered outside had all seen the lady of the host family, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

"What's wrong with Brother Zhou?" Mao'er hurriedly asked after returning the gift.

"The doctor has done bone setting, it is hard to say whether he will be able to walk normally in the future." Zhou Zulin replied.

The cat nodded and walked towards the courtyard.

Zhou Zulin and others also followed in.

Today Zhou Zongfa was rescued by Chen Dutou, so it's not unusual for him to come to visit just now, but the host's wife came here for a visit, which made them all feel a little flattered.

Mrs. Wang, who was sitting by the bed and weeping, couldn't help being taken aback when she saw Maoer walking in with Cui Yuan.

Zhou Zulin, who was following behind, hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law, what are you doing in a daze! The eldest lady of the host family has come to see Brother Fa in person, hurry up and let the eldest lady sit!"

Mrs. Wang was a little confused, this is the eldest lady of the host family, but who is that flirtatious beauty just now?

On the bed, Zhou Zongfa's complexion was pale, his left calf was fixed with willow wood, and wrapped in white cloth.

Even if it is inconvenient to move, he has to stand up and thank him.

"Brother Zhou, don't move around! Just lie down and rest!" Mao'er hurriedly said.

Mrs. Wang finally came to her senses and wanted to find Zhang Muzi, but the house and courtyard were empty, except for a bed and a mat, there was nothing else, so there was no such thing as a Zhang Muzi.

In the end, he had no choice but to move a tree stump from the courtyard into the house. In order not to make the dust on the tree stump stain the beautiful clothes of his hostess, Mrs. Wang wiped it again and again with her sleeve.

The cat didn't dislike it, and sat down after thanking him, and then asked about what happened just now.

When Wang talked about it, she couldn't help crying again.

Maoer wept with him, and then said to Zhou Zulin and others who were guarding outside the house: "Brothers, there are some things on the bullock cart outside the courtyard, please move them in."

Zhou Zulin responded and led people to unload the car.

Afterwards, various items were moved in continuously.

There are winter quilts, pots and pans, and rice, flour, grain and oil.
They are all things that are urgently needed in the small courtyard. With these things, Zhou Zongfa and his wife almost moved in with their bags.

Mrs. Wang couldn't help but feel a little dazed. Is this the lady who came here specially to greet her relatives, give them food, open her mouth to call her man's elder brother and call her sister-in-law, and hold her hand to cry with her?
I also work as a tenant worker. I used to meet Mrs. Zhou Bana in Zhoujiazhuang, not to mention giving things, even if I talked to her with a smile, she never looked at you.

This lady of the Chen family is really, as the head of the family said, a Bodhisattva lady.
Zhou Zongfa on the bed couldn't help but turn red when he saw this, and said in a trembling voice: "I am a useless person now, how can I repay the kindness of my master and you in the future."

"Brother Zhou, don't be discouraged. The doctor has said that it may be cured! Even if the cure is not good, we have other jobs for Brother Zhou. When you recover from your injury and can take care of yourself, my workshop will give you My sister-in-law arranges an errand, and I can always live on. After the new year, when the school starts, I will let "

Mao'er looked at Niu Niu with a kind face, "Hey, what's your name? Tell auntie, okay?"

Niu Niu hid behind Mrs. Wang with only a small head exposed. The child's intuition was that the beautiful aunt in front of her was a good person, so she timidly said, "My name is Niu and my name is Zhiruo."

"Zhiruo. What a good name." Mao'er smiled and pulled a round-headed hairpin from her head and inserted it into the little girl's messy bun. If you go to school to study, my younger sister will be about the same age as Zhiruo."

But Wang exclaimed, "Big lady, you can't do it!"

"Impossible" naturally does not mean that the daughter cannot be allowed to study, but Maoer raised his hand to give a silver hairpin, which looks like it weighs a couple of dollars, which is really precious.

But Maoer smiled and took Wang's hand that wanted to pull out the round-headed hairpin and return it, "Sister-in-law, don't be too polite. My family official said that if you join our Luliuwei Agricultural Reclamation Group, you will be a family. When Zhiruo met for the first time, my aunt came here in a hurry and didn't have time to prepare, so I have to give Zhiruo a meeting gift, right?"

Chen Chu was willing to bring Zhou Zongfa's family here, and he must be accepting him. Maoer guessed that the official might have the intention of buying a horse bone with a thousand dollars, so she took the initiative to help make this matter more beautiful and complete.

But Wang's face was full of tears again, this hairpin was an ornament on the head of the lady of the host family, it was very meaningful.
The other men from Zhoujiazhuang outside the door showed aunt smiles, and the embarrassment of being scolded by Chen Chu just now gradually disappeared.

Although there was no discussion, Chen Chu and Mao'er, Yan and Ci, cooperated seamlessly.

Ironed out the anxiety in the hearts of several new employees.

Excited, Wang bent her knees and wanted to kneel. Although kneeling is not popular at the moment, it is the only way she can think of to thank.

Don't blame her for being spineless and kneeling at every turn. Like two hours ago, if Mrs. Wang could kneel down in exchange for her husband not to suffer the beating, she would rather kneel for several days and nights.

The world is so difficult, Wang's body has no long-term possessions, and the only way to express prayer, gratitude and even anger is to kneel.
Naturally, Mao'er would not accept her great gift, and quickly supported Wang Shi, but because she moved too fast, it touched the sore spot last night, and couldn't help wrinkling her face.

Cuiyuan also hurriedly stepped forward to help Mrs. Wang, Mao'er straightened up and breathed a sigh of relief, looked around at the same time, and said in a soft voice: "My family's officials said that people in our village only kneel to the parents of heaven and earth. "

The 'Thrushwater Pavilion', which was to be renamed after only calling for one day, entered the back house for the second time.

In the living room, Chen Chu looked at the slightly crude furnishings, "Is it still the habit of living here?"

"Of course I'm not used to it, so you have to help me earn money quickly! I want to build a big house."

After Cai Wei entered the room, she hugged a hand warmer and did not let go.

"Why do we have to wait until after the spring of the Chinese New Year? What can we grow in the cold winter months?"

"Hee hee, I'm going to starve to death just waiting for you. Here, how about this?"

The limp and boneless Cai Wei leaned back on the chair, and suddenly took out an object from her arms and threw it over.

Chen Chu raised his hand to receive the bamboo shell, which was engraved with reliefs of flowers and birds, and the words 'Yurongkouzhi' were written on the outside.

Hey, 12315, I want to report!Someone is going to sell counterfeit products!
Chen Chu pulled the lip cover, unscrewed the bright red lipstick, and drew a line on the back of his hand for a look.

"Uneven color, poor review.

There are particles, bad reviews.

The oiliness is not enough, and there is still dry powder residue, a big bad review! "

Chen Chu criticized Cai Wei's imitation Yurong Lipstick as useless.

Cai Hua was a little displeased, but she also knew that what Chen Chu said was true, so she couldn't help but angrily said: "I can sell it cheaper. The little wild cat's fat is made of silver or copper. The next big cost."

What she said was right, the products of Yunong Xiangzhuang only go to the high end, and the cost of the packaging alone is not a small sum of money.

If Cai Wei replaces silver and copper with bamboo and wood, it can indeed reduce costs and seize the low-end market that Maoer has no time to take care of.

But her lip balm is not only counterfeit, but also a shoddy product!

The quality is too bad.

However, Cai Hua looked eagerly at Chen Chu, and said expectantly, "I'm not selling it in our Tongshan County. Puppy, can you give me some advice, where should I sell it?"

Chen Chu took another look at this counterfeit lip balm, and sincerely suggested: "You can only buy this lip balm in North and South."

"Ah? Why can I only buy it in North and South?" Cai Wei asked in confusion.

"Because something doesn't work"
