I am a woman, I am a man, I want to marry a wife so that I can farm

Chapter 53: Go find his good brother-in-law to practice boxing!

If Youshi had been obedient from the beginning, even though Ye Ze would be unhappy, he would have accepted her herbs for the sake of being of the same clan. But this person was not honest.

Ye Ze taught the villagers how to collect herbs and spent his own money to collect them, simply because he wanted to repay the favors of his clan.

The men of the You family are of the same generation as the village chief, so Ye Ze should call him uncle. But when Ye's father was sick three years ago, their family stayed as far away as possible, and did not even come to see him empty-handed. Will the Ye family repay you for your kindness? Where did the You family get the confidence that Ye Ze was easy to talk to? He had just offended someone yesterday, so why would he take her herbs today?

Besides, the skinny monkey's homelessness is also due to Youshi's contribution. His father is also a fool who doesn't even protect his own son. Ye Ze really has no good feelings towards this family, so he'd better stay away from them in the future.

Ye Ze grinned and said, "Although we are from the same clan, I don't like to force others to do things. How can I take advantage of Aunt You just because we are from the same clan? Our family will never accept this herb. You should sell it in the pharmacy. You can get a lot more copper coins. Didn't you see that my family's ox cart was bought by cheating people from the clan?"

"Pfft..." Someone couldn't help but laugh out loud. Ye Ze was too talkative. Could the ox cart be bought by cheating everyone out of a few copper coins? Besides, the pharmacy in the town didn't accept their herbs, right?

Youshi: “…”

Youshi wanted to say something else, but the villager took over the basket from the next villager and continued to work. No one paid any attention to her. Youshi felt so upset. How could she know that the town's pharmacy would not accept these? If she had known earlier, she would not have said those offensive words yesterday. Now, all her herbs were wasted. She had spent two whole days digging them!

Looking at the skinny monkey who was making a fuss on the other side, Youshi felt even more upset. They were obviously a family, but he was unwilling to say a word to help her. Then she thought, the skinny monkey came to Ye Ze's house every day to help, so Ye Ze should give him a lot of money, right?

Youshi couldn't help but have other thoughts in her mind. She picked up her backpack and slowly left the Ye family. She carried the two backpacks back the same way she had brought them there. Seeing this, Ye Changzhu's face darkened.

"Why did you take it back?"

"Ye San'er refused to buy my house, what can I do?" Yu Shi complained with a droopy face, "Your good son was helping out at Ye San'er's house, watching me being laughed at by Ye San'er, and he didn't even dare to fart. He is really an ungrateful person! I have raised him for so many years in vain!"

"My son?" Ye Changzhu thought for a moment before he suddenly realized, "You mean Xiaoshuan? How can he help the Ye family?" How could he not know what kind of person Ye Xiaoshuan was? He was a lazy guy who didn't want to work. What could he do to help?

You Shi put down her backpack and came over, whispering, "Master, you don't know that Ye San'er's family suddenly bought a large piece of wasteland. Xiao Shuan was watching a few old men making adobe bricks there, and he said he was...something like a chief steward! Master, this chief steward must be paid a lot, right?"

"He is the chief steward?!" Ye Changzhu looked at You Shi in surprise. Knowing that she was not making up stories, Ye Changzhu could not help but frowned. "So that guy can also make money?"

When he was not busy in the fields, Ye Changzhu would go to the town to find work. He had never paid attention to what was happening in the village.

"It's more than making money. Boss, you don't know what kind of shit luck Ye San'er's family has had recently. Not only did they buy a bullock cart and a piece of wasteland, but today they unloaded more than a dozen carts of blue bricks and red tiles. The old men who make adobe bricks alone get paid 25 cents a day, and they get a full meal at noon. The wages are settled on time at the end of the day, and not a cent is owed! You said that with such a good job, your son doesn't even know how to think about you as a father..."

Ye Changzhu was stunned. The wages of these old men were 25 cents a day? And they were provided with a meal at noon? And they were allowed to eat their fill?

Damn! This is as much as he could earn by unloading goods in the county town! They don’t have to travel so far to find work.

Ye Xiaoshuan is really his good son! He is the manager, and finding workers is just a matter of his word. Ye Changzhu's heart suddenly felt blocked.

Seeing that Ye Changzhu had taken her words to heart, You Shi whispered in his ear again.

......

As usual, Shouhou and Goudan had dinner at Ye Ze's house before leaving. But just as they reached the door, Ye Ze called them back.

"Why are you in such a hurry? These are for you. Go back and dress yourself up before wearing them." Ye Ze chased them out of the door and handed them the new clothes he bought, giving each of them two sets to wear in turn.

It was already the beginning of winter, and the tattered jackets the two men were wearing did not block the wind at all.

Seeing the new clothes handed over by Ye Ze, Goudan's face lit up with joy: "For us?"

Ye Ze nodded: "Well, take it. I will make two new quilts for you in two days."

"I have new clothes to wear too, hehe..." Goudan took the clothes and tried them on himself, and he couldn't suppress the upward smile on his lips.

Compared to Goudan, Shouhou thinks a little more.

"Boss, this will cost a lot of money, right?" Skinny Monkey asked nervously. He thought to himself that the little money he earned was definitely not enough to buy the new clothes.

Ye Ze: "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Just take what's given to you. Okay, go back and go to bed early."

"Well, thank you, Boss..."

"Hey, thank you, boss!"

After watching the skinny monkey and the other man walk away, Ye Ze did not go home, but went to Qingshui Village! When he came out, he told Old Lady Ye and the others that he was going out for a while, and asked the family to sleep first and not to worry about him.

Last night, he was afraid that Daya would have a fever again, so he had to stay at home to watch over her. Now that he has nothing to do, he goes to find his good brother-in-law to practice boxing!

It was already pitch black outside, with only a few stars twinkling in the sky, adding a touch of light to the dark night.

Ye Ze strode quickly towards Qingshui Village. Along the way, apart from the sound of wind whistling in his ears, he didn't see even a ghost. It made sense. Most of the villagers were used to going to bed early. Who would come out so late at night for no reason?

It was around nine o'clock in the evening when they arrived at Qingshui Village. The Zhang family should have just fallen asleep. Standing outside the low wall of the Zhang family and looking inside, the rooms inside were all pitch black. Ye Ze clapped his hands and climbed over the wall to go in.

He knew that Zhang Dongsheng's room was the second room on the west side. He walked to the door and pushed it, but it didn't budge. The door was bolted from the inside. Ye Ze groped to the window again, lifted it up and opened it. It was dark inside.

It took Ye Ze a while to adjust before he could barely see the blurry shadows inside. To the northwest was the wooden bed where Zhang Dongsheng slept.
