The next day, Zhang Lan reported to the production team early in the morning as usual, but she was as anxious as a cat.

"I heard that you were beaten by your man yesterday!"

Zhang Lan glared at the man and continued working angrily.

"Looking at her like this, I know she must have been beaten."

"Of course! As the saying goes, domestic flowers are not as fragrant as wild flowers. She is even worse than a domestic flower who made a mistake. She dared to scold the wild flower that is the apple of someone's eye. Isn't this asking for a beating?"

"If you ask me, just bear with it! Those people are all making money for your man. Aren't your man's people equivalent to your money? You are not losing out!"

"What you said, if she could manage the money at home, would she have fallen to this point?"

"That's right. Xie Changshan would rather spend a lot of money to hire those people to do the work than let his wife do it. To put it bluntly, he doesn't want her to have the opportunity to manage the money."

……

These people were jealous of the five young wives for being able to make money, and when they finally caught them doing something wrong, they naturally exaggerated the gossip.

The more Zhang Lan listened, the angrier she became. She tried to escape home twice to catch the adulterer, but was caught each time by the production team leader, who warned her that if she tried again she would be criticized and put in solitary confinement.

If I can't escape home, I'll just have to work hard to finish the job.

I thought I would run into those stinky foxes again when I got home, but they became smarter and brought the work home with them.

Zhang Lan had no place to vent her anger, so she started arguing with Xie Changshan again.

But Xie Changshan now is not the same as before. Even if he is scolded a few times, he will not talk back and his attitude is still cold.

As long as she made a move, he would fight back without mercy. No matter how powerful Zhang Lan was, she was still a woman and was beaten up without any ability to resist.

Xie Changlin was a little anxious, so he went to find Wen Wan as soon as he got out of school the next day at noon, and told her everything before Xie Changqing came back.

"Sister-in-law, nothing will go wrong, right?"

"No," Wen Wan said.

"But the current situation is that the five workers are reluctant to spend their wages. Not to mention working in the production team, even if they work as regular workers in the city, they won't earn that much a month.

No one will follow the money, and I don’t think they will leave easily.”

"They won't leave easily, but Zhang Lan won't let them stay in the workshop any longer."

Because she couldn't make a living by making money, Zhang Lan was laughed at and criticized in the production team. It was unbearable for anyone.

She would definitely think that at worst, both sides would be destroyed and no one would have a good time, which is better than her being the only cuckold.

Sure enough, that night, when Zhang Lan came back, she happened to meet a few workers who were going home to do their work.

Several people were dressed up beautifully and smiled at Xie Changshan with a seductive look on their faces.

Zhang Lan was already angry because she hadn't caught any fish for several days. Now seeing this scene, she felt so angry that she was almost dying. She felt that she would not be able to survive if she didn't get out immediately.

Somehow, the angrier Zhang Lan got, the clearer her mind became.

With Xie Changshan around, she could only curse a few words at best, and would be stopped before she could do anything.

Zhang Lan gritted her teeth and waited until the few people returned home, then went to the kitchen and got an enamel washbasin and a cast iron spoon for cooking.

She ran around the village knocking and cursing, and called out several workers by name for shamelessly seducing her man.

This kind of erotic gossip, even if it is groundless, everyone will discuss it with gusto.

What's more, these people did work under Xie Changshan, so Zhang Lan could avoid suspicion by staying at home. However, Zhang Lan worked in the production team from before dawn to after dark.

Not to mention seduction, people would believe it even if they said they had sex every day.

Even though Zhang Lan was carried back by Xie Changshan after she had just started shouting, this incident still became a topic of conversation for the whole village.

In this situation, these workers had no choice but to resign.

It didn't take long for the ruthless heart to finally find a way out, and Wen Ya also started a workshop.

When they heard Xu Fengqin say she was recruiting, several people specially prepared gifts and came to her house.

Since they had skills, they naturally had no reason to refuse. They started working in Wen Ya's workshop the next day, making hats exactly the same as those made by the Xie family.

After experiencing several failed business ventures, Wen Ya has developed a certain degree of awe.

Just like she was reborn, maybe many things were destined. Wen Wan had the luck to do business, so she was successful in business in her previous life.

None of Wen Ya’s business ventures have been successful. It’s probably not a problem of ability, but a lack of luck in doing business.

If you don't have luck, you can only rely on the luck of others. Wen Wan was the first to start the hat business, and he did it very well.

Now that Xie Changshan has taken over, he is doing very well. It will definitely not be too bad if Wen Ya takes over now, maybe it will be even better.

Fearing that her business fortunes would be affected by details, Wen Ya not only kept her previous workers, she even kept the style of the hats.

Unexpectedly, she made the right choice. Business was getting better and better every day. There were even so many goods that they were not enough to sell and they received many pre-orders.

Seeing that her business was good, Wen Wan's lips slowly curled up.

On the contrary, Xie Changlin was quite sour, "I really don't understand, why should she make money?"

Wen Wan disagreed and said, "There is no such thing as a free lunch. What falls are traps. The more you earn now, the heavier the punishment will be in the future."

Although he didn’t quite understand what she was going to do, Xie Changlin still felt a little uneasy, “Brother is just an honest farmer.

If Wen Ya doesn't believe that he made the hat this time and guesses that it's on your head, then doesn't this matter still involve you?"

"If you say it was done by my eldest brother, I'm afraid even Zhang Lan won't believe it, let alone Wen Ya," Wen Wan said.

"Ah?" Xie Changlin scratched his head anxiously, "That's troublesome."

"It won't be a problem," Wen Wan said, "Wen Ya did so much to get a few workers out of the Xie family, just so she could take the leading role and make them beg her to take them in.

Those workers have already tasted the joy of making money, and they must value this opportunity from Wen Ya very much.

In this case, several workers will definitely try their best to raise their own prices. They will definitely say in unison that the style of the hat was all their idea.”

Xie Changlin was skeptical, "Will Wen Ya believe it?"

“People usually choose to believe what they prefer to believe.

Wen Ya has always been unwilling to admit the fact that I am not a bad person, and subconsciously still thinks that I am as useless as before.

So she would rather believe that they made the pattern on the hat than believe that I had such an ability.

Besides, they are well-known in the village for their ingenuity and it is not surprising that they can come up with new tricks."

When the two of them entered the courtyard one after the other, Xie Changqing, who was cooking in the kitchen, heard the noise and came out with a spatula.

It’s just that the expression on his face isn’t very good. Even when he’s smiling, it seems forced.

Wen Wan's eyebrows jumped. She always felt that he was hiding something from her, but he was unwilling to say anything no matter how she hinted at it.

"The meal will be ready soon!"

After saying that, Xie Changqing went back into the kitchen.

Seeing this, Xie Changlin pulled the strap of his messenger bag a little awkwardly, "Second sister-in-law, I often come to eat these days. Is my second brother unhappy?"

"It has nothing to do with you!"

After Wen Wan finished speaking, she slowly realized that there was something strange about Xie Changlin's words.

Is second brother unhappy?

It sounds quite consistent with the green tea quotes summarized by netizens in later generations.

He knew what kind of person Xie Changqing was. How could he be unhappy because he ate too much? What's more, Xie Changqing had promised to support him.

She wanted to find out the truth, but then she changed her mind and thought, forget it. She had already been troubled enough by Xie Changqing's matter, so she didn't have the energy to think about Xie Changlin's matter now.

"Put up the table. I'll go to the kitchen to check on your second brother."

"I……"

Before Xie Changlin could finish his words, Wen Wan stepped into the kitchen, leaving him alone in the yard, feeling sad.

Wen Wan stood on tiptoe to look outside the yard, and seeing that Xie Changlin was not there, she moved behind Xie Changqing and hugged him, burying her nose in him and breathing in his unique scent.

A feeling that is both illusory and real, with a touch of fireworks.

Xie Changqing supported himself with his hands and sighed helplessly, "I'm dirty, don't hold me so tight."

“I like it dirty.”

"Alright," Xie Changqing laughed softly, "Old Three is still here! Be careful of the impact."

"Oh!" Wen Wan let go obediently, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Just wait and eat," Xie Changqing said, "Don't you dislike the smell of cooking fumes? Go and clean up the table, don't stay here."

"Oh!" Wen Wan pouted unhappily, "A few days ago, you wanted to tie me to your belt, but now you won't even let me stand next to you. It turns out that the passion has worn off over time."

"I didn't mean to chase you away..." Xie Changqing's face was numb with injustice. He struggled for a moment and said, "Okay, I was wrong. You stay by my side. You can stay as long as you want."

"If you ask me to stay, I will stay. That would be so embarrassing for me." Wen Wan started to lose her temper. "What if you ask me to stay and I won't stay?"

"..." Xie Changqing looked at her with a doting yet helpless smile.

"Unless..." Wen Wan looked at him with a smile, deliberately lengthening the ending tone, "Kiss me."

"..."

“Just give me a kiss and I’ll…” Reluctantly staying by your side.

Before she could finish her words, Xie Changqing put his hand holding the spatula around her waist, pulled her towards him, and kissed her.
