My scumbag sister stole my husband? I'm a scumbag and married my cowardly brother-in-law

Xie Changqing said it was not serious, but Wen Wan didn't quite believe it. It was just that the nature of his job was special, so she couldn't ask too many questions.

Wen Wan thought of countless bad outcomes in her mind. The worst that could happen was that she would be sentenced to several years of labor reform like Lu Antai.

Even if he is sentenced, the labor reform will not last too long, because the special period will soon be over.

But I didn’t expect that Zhang Lan would cause trouble again.

Under normal circumstances, Wen Wan would not care about these trivial matters, but the situation is different now. Xie Changqing has encountered troubles at work, and if something happens to his family, it will have a great impact on him.

I don’t know who provided the advice to Zhang Lan, saying that the main selling point of the hats made by Wen Wan is the animal shapes on them.

It's spring now and no one is buying winter hats, so just make straw hats for spring and summer and add animal shapes on them.

It just so happens that many production teams grow the straw for making straw hats, so they can just buy it at the market price.

So Zhang Lan asked the workers who had previously knitted the hats to knit a few samples. When she thought they were good, she recruited all her relatives to join in the knitting.

Zhang Lan thought that like Wen Wan and Xie Changlin, the hats would be sold out as soon as they were brought to the town. However, she only sold three hats in three days, an average of one hat per day.

Zhang Lan was so anxious that she tried every possible way, but in the end she still couldn't sell it.

Human nature has always been to like to add icing on the cake and to push others down when they are down. These relatives who gave gifts to the workshop all came to earn money, but now they see that the hats they knitted cannot be sold.

I must have thought that if I couldn't sell the products, it would be difficult to pay them their wages. So at first I tried to test them carefully, saying that something happened at home and I needed money, and asked if I could pay them first.

After being refused payment, they still waited and watched for two days, hoping that the product would be sold in two days.

For half a month, sometimes I sold one or two hats, and sometimes I didn't sell any.

Now the relatives could no longer sit still and started to strike to demand their wages.

In fact, Zhang Lan hoped that they would go on strike. Since the hats could not be sold anyway, she was not afraid of being asked for wages because, after all, the goods had not been sold.

What she was afraid of was that they would ask for the gifts back. Once she received the things, they would become hers, and asking for them back would be like cutting her flesh.

Besides, she had already given back some of the gifts, and she had eaten some of them during this period, so she planned to take the rest to the town to sell for money after some time.

It is impossible to return the gift. The most important thing now is to stabilize these people. Just don't mention returning the gift.

In the face of the crowd's excitement, Zhang Lan said, "Don't get excited. The hats haven't been sold yet. Once they are sold, I will definitely deliver the wages to you personally."

"It's been almost a month, don't you know how many you've sold? At this rate, it may take eight or ten years to sell out."

Zhang Lan asked: "Why can't it be sold? Don't you know what's going on?

You caused trouble and drove away several old workers, and you kept saying that your skills were already superb and you didn't need them anymore.

I believed you for the sake of our relationship, but what happened? What a waste you knitted for me. Don't you know how many crooked and twisted things there are in a batch?

There's no way you can sell the inferior products you weave.

If I can’t sell them, how can I pay you?

Besides, I promised to send your wages home after the hats are sold. What else do you want? Eat me?"

Zhang Lan's scoundrelly speech made everyone so angry that their teeth were chattering.

"You are the boss, you are the one who told us to do the work, whether we do it well or not is all your fault.

Even in the old society, no landlord paid his farmhands according to the harvest.

You are even less humane than the landlords in the old society."

"That's right. Whether or not the products can be sold is the boss's business. It has nothing to do with us. Once we have finished the work, you just need to pay us. You don't need to say anything else."

"Why say so much to her? Can't you see from her attitude? She just doesn't want to pay us and wants to default on her debt."

"You're right, she just wants to default on her debt."

"I'm telling you, Zhang Lan, if you don't pay us today, we will stay at your house and won't leave."

"Yes, I'll leave when I get paid."

……

Although these people gave Zhang Lan a headache, in the end no one mentioned returning the favor, so she finally put her mind at ease.

If you don't want to leave, then just stay!

How could Zhang Lan be afraid of them?

Anyway, before the hat was sold, she valued the money more than her life.

At first, Zhang Lan didn't want Wen Wan to laugh at her, so she didn't say anything and kept warning Xie Changshan not to tell anyone.

Wen Wan just thought that Xie Changshan had quarreled with Zhang Lan again. He went to the production team to work early in the morning and came back after dark without saying anything.

It was not until a week later that Zhang Lan could no longer hold on and came to Xie Changqing for help.

Xie Changqing frowned and said, "Sister-in-law, what can I do for you?"

This question stumped Zhang Lan. She had originally planned to just say that a group of relatives were making trouble and bullying his elder brother Xie Changshan, and asked him to go over and take a look.

I didn't expect Wen Wan to pull me aside and ask what he had discovered. I'll find out the truth before we talk about other things.

Zhang Lan had no choice but to tell him what happened. She thought that would be all, but she didn't expect that after she finished, he still didn't want to go with her.

"Second brother, don't worry about what you need help with, just go and save your eldest brother first!

If you don't go over there soon, your brother will be crippled by those people."

Xie Changqing was so concerned that he was about to follow, but was stopped by Wen Wan.

"Sister-in-law, you are originally in the wrong in this matter. You let Xie Changqing go with two intentions. One is to let Xie Changqing teach those people a lesson.

The second is to pay the wages of those people on your behalf.

Now is a new society, beating people is illegal.

Your two plans, one is to make my Xie Changqing lose money, and the other is to make him break the law. He is the pillar of my family. If anything happens to him, I will not be able to live. I can't let him go."

Afraid that Xie Changqing might misunderstand, Wen Wan looked at him and explained, "Your mother is also in the next yard. If there is a fight, she will definitely call for help."

Rural women have been influenced by their environment since childhood, and will cry and make a fuss over trivial matters. Sometimes it is to attract others to judge the case, and sometimes it is to attract others to help. There are many people in rural areas and they like to meddle in other people's affairs. As soon as one side starts to act, people from the other side will gather around.

There was no movement at all, which meant that not only was there no fighting, there might not even be a quarrel.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Wen Wan continued, "And I always feel that this matter is not that simple. It might be aimed at you. You can't interfere in this matter."

These people had to go into the workshop to give gifts. There was nothing to doubt about this. After all, it was difficult to make money in the countryside at that time, and the workers who had knitted hats last year did make a lot of money.

Wen Wan didn't see what the gift was exactly, so she didn't know, but judging from the way Zhang Lan had casually set up the workshop and was working on it, it should have been a pretty generous gift.

Since it was a generous gift, when they found that the knitted hats could not be sold, the first thing they wanted was to be paid for the labor rather than returning the generous gift.

Taking all these illogical points into consideration, it is not difficult to infer that this incident was most likely planned by humans.

Zhang Lan is a rural woman, and someone spent so much money to trick her. The other party was either mentally ill or had other intentions.

Obviously the latter is more reliable.
