Across the Market

Chapter 167

Jiang honestly said: "This man is a well-known scoundrel in our Lihua village. He often bullies others because of his strong looks. They also have many brothers, and everyone in the village is afraid of him." Something has happened, this Wang family... hey..."

Zhao Jing said: "Don't worry, when I enter the city, I will send the policemen from the yamen to come over and ask carefully."

After hearing this, Jiang Laosi hurriedly thanked: "Thank you, sir, thank you, if the yamen can come to catch you quickly, then the brothers of the Wang family will not dare to do anything wrong."

Zhao Jing turned around and said to Shen Yulou, "Why don't you just get down to business right away?"

Zhu Fu took sister Nuan and Zhao Kou to play in the vegetable garden behind Jiang's house. She didn't know what happened before, but when she found out that someone dared to bully her sister, she wished she could rush over and kill the bear immediately. Pull it over and flatten it.

Zhu Xi pulled his sister back and said: "Master Zhao said that he will send arresters over when he returns to the yamen. Sister Fu, don't be angry."

Although Sister Nuan didn't understand half of it, but after what happened to Niu Dalai last time, she felt somewhat shadowy in her heart. Smelling such a thing, her small body unconsciously hid behind her brother Zhu Lu.

Zhu Lu was also angry, if Shen Yulou hadn't stopped him just now, he would have gone up to beat that scoundrel.

Jiang Laoshi went to the cowshed to untie the ropes of the two cows and lead them out, handed the rope tied to the noses of the cows to Zhu Fu and said, "These two cows will be yours from now on, and it has been two years since we bought them back. Where are the two cubs?"

Zhu Fu saw the reluctance in Jiang Laoshi's eyes, and he was very conflicted in his heart, thinking that if the family hadn't raised money for the eldest son to marry a wife, they wouldn't have sold the cattle.

Outside Jiang Shu saw that his father was really going to sell the cow, so he ran in crying, hugged one of the cows, and cried: "There is a cub, and there will be a cub, I won't let you take it Let it go." His little face was covered with black mud, and after soaking in tears, his already dirty face was even more horrible.

Zhu Fu was surprised and said, "Have you got a kid?"

"There is a cub!" Jiang Shu said fiercely to Zhu Fu, "Why do you want to buy our cows? We have already given the milk to you. Why do you want to buy our cows?"

But Zhu Fu laughed and said, "If you really don't want it, then we won't buy it."

Jiang Laoshi pushed his youngest son, Jiang Shu, to the side, and said with a dark face: "The buyer is kind and will definitely treat the cubs well. Why are you crying? You know how to cry. If you don't sell cattle, how can you have money?" Get a wife for your brother? Where can I find the money to build a new house and marry you a wife in the future?"

Jiang Shu was still crying, holding the cow and refusing to let go.

Zhu Fu said: "Since this little brother is reluctant, I don't want to force others to make things difficult, how about this..."

"Miss Zhu, you can't help it." Aunt Jiang said hurriedly, "I don't understand anything. The two of us have the final say on this matter. This cow will definitely be sold today." She rubbed her hands and said with a coy smile , "Look, it's all settled, my family is really waiting for the money to give Shuan'er a wife."

Zhu Fu said: "This time I sold a cow to the eldest son to marry a wife. What will I sell next time? This is indeed not a long-term solution. I think he really has feelings for the cow. Besides, the cow has a calf in its belly. At this time It’s also inconvenient. I was thinking about where to put the cattle if I brought them into the city.” She smiled and said, “If my Fuji wants to hire you to work, I wonder if you would be willing?”

"Hire us?" Jiang Laoshi and his wife looked at each other, both of them looked dazed, "We can't just leave the crops behind and not plant them, our ancestors have been here for generations, they have taken root, and they don't want to go to the city. That place in the city is not something our family can afford to live in."

Zhu Fu shook his head and said: "I want to hire you to take care of the cows for me, make the cows produce milk, and send the milk to the city every morning, and I will pay you money. Our business in Fuji is okay, two or three A branch store will be opened in a few months, and by that time, the demand will be more, of course, the price will not be short-changed.”
