At this time, shopkeeper Xu came.

His holiday is earlier than in previous years, and everyone knows the reason.

Sitting in the living room, he felt a little embarrassed.

"Ms. Qin, what's the matter with my brother?"

"Needless to say, if you don't have it, you don't have it, even if you come, you won't have it."

"Really not?"

"What am I kidding you about? Look at the vegetable field in the back. Not even an acre has been planted. The workers are on holiday since the beginning of winter."

"What about the recipe?"

"Do you think I'm a god? You can have whatever you want? Those two or three recipes. I only researched them when I was in trouble. Now that I have money, who can still do that?"

"But your food is very delicious."

"It's not the recipe, it's the dense ingredients I used special methods to prepare."

"Can we use secret information?"

"No."

"why?"

"If you see him unhappy, don't interact with him in the future. It's as simple as that."

Shopkeeper Xu sighed: "I am just such a younger brother. I always think of him in everything I do. He has been smarter than me since he was a child. He is loved by everyone in the family and we always stick to him first."

"Stop it, that's your business. If we don't like him, it's our business. It has nothing to do with it."

"But."

"No but, his business is very good. It's not like he has no food to eat. Don't overdo it. It will look too ugly."

"I know, he has some"

"Needless to say, my Qin family will never have any business dealings with him in the future. You can take this New Year's gift back with you."

"No, no, this is what I want."

"You pay to make him lose his reputation? I can't accept this gift. I told the Qin family that I will not have anything to do with him. If I accept this gift, wouldn't it be a slap in my face?"

"Oh, okay, just think of it as a gift from me, Xu."

"No, you don't owe our Qin family anything, just take the gift back."

Shopkeeper Xu was surprised: "Are we also cut off?"

"No, you are you and he is him. Every year you send gifts here because of him. You are alone. I just don't want to accept your gifts. It has nothing to do with you."

"That's fine, that's fine."

Before leaving, Qin Yue gave him a message: "To spoil a son is to kill him, and so is your younger brother!"

"Teachable!"

Shopkeeper Xu walked away disappointed. As his boss, Ji Mingtang naturally stopped him halfway.

"Your brother is so inhumane. For your sake, Madam Qin gave him goods and made his restaurant prosperous. In addition, she also saved his grandson. She never gives gifts in person, she always gives them to others. You give it away without paying for it, this is a very good calculation."

"Young master, I, alas~"

"You're not that old either. Why don't you marry a younger, honest and reliable wife, and have a child of your own? Don't count on other people's children."

"I'm afraid it won't be easy to find."

"I will give you a piece of homestead. You can move here when you get old. After the New Year, I will ask someone to find one for you. It is your own child who is practical and reliable. What belongs to others is still theirs."

Shopkeeper Xu gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, since the Young Master's family has spoken, my subordinates will do as they please."

"I also have a message for you. Madam Qin, this relationship must not be broken, otherwise you will regret it for the rest of your life."

"You can't break her if you break your brother?"

"Go for yourself."

Seeing him leaving in frustration, Ji Mingtang shook his head.

It’s okay not to want a brother like that. He is so rich, but he still wants to take advantage of his poor brother, and wants to make him poor. When he gets old and can’t move, it’s better not to kick him away.

He sighed and looked towards the village entrance.

"The little girl is coming back soon. I have to prepare well. What should I give her as a new year's gift?"

Ji Mingtang was in trouble alone. Here, Bantou Zheng was drinking wine and eating side dishes at home, which he bought from the town.

He hasn't touched Mrs. Li for half a year, but it's not that he has another woman outside.

But when I think of the words she scolded and the things she did, I feel sick in my heart.

The matchmaker secretly came to him several times, wanting to tell him about a marriage relationship, as long as he was an equal wife. The other party was from a well-to-do small family.Young, beautiful, dignified and virtuous, and literate.

He didn't agree. For so many years, whether he had money or not, he had never thought about it.

Just like Mr. Li, he was afraid that when the daughter of a good family came home, Mr. Li would torment her and kill her. Wouldn't it be harming that family?

But now, he suddenly thought about it.

He wanted to find someone with more experience, so that he could fight against Zheng and Li Shi, so that she would not have to focus on the Qin family and others.

Suddenly, he felt a cramp in his stomach. He immediately glanced at Mrs. Li and saw the proud look on her face, knowing that this matter must be related to her.

Without saying anything, he stood up and slapped her face with all his strength, causing Li to faint immediately.

He clutched his stomach and stumbled to Qin's house.

Using his last strength, he knocked on the door and plunged in.

Frightened, Mr. Dong and Ms. Wang hurriedly helped him to the living room, while Qin Yue and Shitou hurriedly ran out.

After checking his pulse, he put a pill in his mouth, soaked it with water, and drank it down.

After a long while, Bantou Zheng opened his eyes and spat out a mouthful of black blood.

Seeing Qin Yue, he knew he was saved.

"Thank you!"

"What's wrong with you?"

"Ms. Li, she put medicine in my wine. She wants to harm me and take away my family property."

Qin Yueyi frowned: "Oh, the second Xiang family."

Shitou sighed: "It's a good thing you live here, otherwise, my life would be gone."

"Yes, she may blame me for being too strict with her and beating her again, so that's why"

"What are you going to do?"

"Hugh is impossible, let's divorce her. Give her more money and go wherever you like. I can't keep her on my pillow."

"What about people?"

"I was knocked out."

"You can handle your own affairs yourself. The government office seems to be open at the moment. It's better to keep it private. If it's private, she might not recognize the debt. It will be good for you in the future."

"Okay, I'll go right now."

"Should I take it to you?"

"No, I'll find the village chief and ask him to accompany me. The two girls at home can't be kept, they have to be sold together."

Team leader Zheng left, Shitou sighed.

"She is just like my mother. She doesn't know how to catch her. To achieve her goal, she will do whatever it takes, even poisoning her husband who has lived with her for decades."

"Where do you think her poison came from?"

"Li can't leave the village. The poison was secretly sent by either her natal family or her children."

"Yes, a group of accomplices all think about the money in Team Leader Zheng's hands. Money can save people, but it can also harm people."

"He is so pitiful. He is working hard to make money outside. His wife is causing trouble at home, and her children are helping her to harm him. The in-law family can't see him either, ugh~"

It was dark, and Team Leader Zheng was back.

When he went there, he took Hu Hai and several of his sons with him. Together, they tied up Mrs. Zheng Li and the two girls and sent them to the Yamen.

Inside, it took only a few boards to recruit.

After signing and deeding, Bantou Zheng gave her dignity and left it to the county magistrate to make the final decision.

The poison was given by Li's natal family, which made Team Leader Zheng feel much better.

It was better to give him chills than what his children gave him. He held the Li family's signature document, which was like pinching the artery of the Li family.

If he dared to cause trouble again, he would sue the Li family to the government.

During the Chinese New Year, Mrs. Li took her luggage and the two girls, hired a bullock cart and left.

Now that he is finally out of the cage, he will be able to fly happily and freely.

But Mrs. Li cried all the way back to her son's house in Fucheng. She cried again, for no other reason than that the purpose was not achieved, and the handle fell into the hands of Team Leader Zheng. Not only did the money not fall into his hands, but he was also He was very disciplined.

Don't think that Bantou Zheng was happy when he got home. He also cried bitterly when he got home.

It's heartbreaking, he is so kind to her, no matter how rich he is, he doesn't take concubines, and he doesn't even look at other women.

But she was, alas, sad.
