Traveling to an ancient peasant family: I got rich by doing business

Yang Qiuyue wanted to see Li Yu in trouble, so she decided to think of a cruel way to make Li Yu lose everything.

But after thinking about several of them, I felt that they were not cruel enough.

At this time, her mother came to Qingshui Village. The Yang family was not well off, and the eldest brother Yang was a lazy man. The whole family depended on Yang's father to farm for a living. So Yang's mother came every once in a while to get some food and money from the Han family, and to visit Yang Qiuyue.

Seeing that she was distracted, Yang's mother said, "What's wrong with you? You can't even feed the child properly. My sweet grandson is starving!"

Yang Qiuyue glanced at her mother and said, "Isn't it the one from the second son's family? You saw her when you came here. She was actually building a house, and it's bigger than the one we live in now."

Speaking of this, Mother Yang glared at Yang Qiuyue with disdain, "Why did you insist on dividing the family in the first place? If you didn't, all the money she earned would belong to you and Xiuwu, and I could build a new house for your brother and sister-in-law, and it would all be yours. Now look, not only do others laugh at you, but they also laugh at me in private, saying that I raised a good daughter, but I threw away the money I earned!"

Yang Qiuyue was also angry: "How could I know she was so scheming? She hid it before the separation."

Mother Yang looked fierce: "She deliberately schemed against me, I can't let her have an easy time."

Yang Qiuyue: "Mom, do you have a solution?"

Mother Yang raised her eyes and waved at her: "Yes, come here, I tell you, my method can make her obediently give up the money and the new house."

Li Yu didn't know that Yang Qiuyue was trying to commit suicide, and she continued her life as usual every day.

I do business in the morning, help out at the new house at noon, and make braised meat in the afternoon. I never stop for a moment.

Fortunately, everything was worth it. Li Ji Food Store had a steady income and the new house was built quickly.

The bricklayers hired by the village chief were all skilled workers, and they were very skilled in laying the foundation, erecting the frame, and building the walls.

In just eight or nine days, the walls of the main house had been built nearly two meters high, and the roof would be ready in a few more days.

At noon that day, Li Yu came to the new house to help with cooking as usual. When she was distributing food to the bricklayers, she suddenly felt someone looking at her from behind her right. She turned her head sharply and found that there was someone there, but the person reacted quickly and turned around the moment she turned her head, leaving only an unsightly back view.

At this time, a skinny, half-grown child called Li Yu and said, "Boss Li, I have something to tell you."

Li Yu looked at the child intently. He was the youngest person among those building the house. His name was Pei Ming and he was only fourteen years old. It was said that his parents were in poor health, so he started building houses with others when he was twelve years old.

Giving the spoon to Han Shui's wife, Li Yu led Pei Ming to the side and said, "You speak."

Pei Ming pointed to where the peeper had been, "That person was here yesterday morning, too, right there."

Li Yu's expression turned cold. "Did you see his appearance clearly?"

Pei Ming shook his head: "When I found him yesterday, he was moving bricks, and I could only see his clothes. When I had a chance to take a closer look, he was gone. But the clothes he wore yesterday were the same as those he wore today."

Li Yu had originally planned to investigate the man just now, but after Pei Ming's words, she felt that she had to investigate thoroughly.

That person is sneaky, so it's probably not good for him.

To thank Pei Ming, Li Yu arranged for Han Shui's wife to give him more meat.

Pei Ming was a little hesitant. "Boss Li, you give us a big bowl of rice every noon. If I can't finish it, can I take the rest home?"

His father was sick again, and the family's money was being spent like water, and they were almost unable to make ends meet. He thought of saving some rice for lunch and bringing it back for his parents in the evening.

Li Yu guessed his thoughts and said, "If I give it to you, it's yours. You can do whatever you want with it as long as you don't waste it. Just don't forget to bring my bowl over the next day."

Pei Ming was overjoyed, "Thank you, Boss Li!"

As he walked away, the village head's wife said, "It was not easy for this child to be born. You are so generous. Who in an ordinary family would be willing to give rice to a person who built a house?"

Li Yuxiao: "I just want everyone to focus more on their work."

Apart from anything else, because she treated everyone well in terms of food, all the bricklayers used their best skills.

"Aren't you afraid that they just want to eat good food every day and deliberately delay the construction of the house?"

"Don't be afraid. With Uncle Li and Uncle Wu here, they won't dare. Besides, they want to move on to other houses as soon as they finish building mine." As the best bricklayers in the area, these people would rather build a few more houses and earn more money than eat more rice.

Because he had other things to do, Li Yu didn't talk much with the village chief's wife. He turned to talk to Uncle Wu about the peeping Tom.

Uncle Wu went home at noon and didn't see anyone. After listening to Li Yu's words, he immediately said, "I will keep a closer eye on him from today and I will definitely catch him."

Li Yu: "Thank you for your help. I'll find someone else to go with you."

She wanted to find someone who was good at running and wait for the man on the road he had just returned, to wait for him to come.

*

It was not the busy farming season, and most of the men in the village were doing odd jobs in the town. Those who didn't go were either untrustworthy or lazy. Li Yu looked for a while, but couldn't find a suitable one.

In fact, Han Sheng meets the requirements, but Han Sheng has to help her in the afternoon and cannot do it.

Finally, Li Yu discussed it with Li Xiangyun and asked her boss Wang Dafu for help.

"It doesn't matter who you work for." Li Xiangyun said, "I'll go back this afternoon and tell him to go to the new house to look for Uncle Wu tomorrow."

Li Yu agreed.

*

In the next few days, Li Yu was more careful in her work, whether she was selling braised meat in the town or helping out in the new house, she always paid attention to the movements around her. She also carried a dagger with her in case of emergency.

But that person seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth and never came back.

Wang Dafu got nothing and was too embarrassed to eat the lunch that Li Yu prepared for them.

Uncle Wu also suspected that they were overthinking it.

In response, Li Yu asked them to wait a few more days, as the construction of her house was at a critical stage and nothing could go wrong.

*

In this way, several people paid attention every day, but still found nothing.

Until the day when the tiles were installed on the main house, the man came again, wearing exactly the same clothes as the previous two times.

Li Yu caught sight of it out of the corner of her eye and immediately told Uncle Wu something, and Uncle Wu immediately imitated the sound of a bird.

A few breaths later, the sound of birds chirping was heard from where Wang Dafu was hiding. Li Yu knew that the time was ripe, and while talking to Uncle Wu, he slowly retreated towards the place where the man was hiding.

The two of them behaved normally, so the man didn't notice.

When he was three or four meters away from him, Li Yu made a gesture to Uncle Wu, and they both turned their heads at the same time.

The man was so focused on admiring the house that he didn't notice Li Yu's actions at all. So when he realized he had been discovered, it was already too late.

He was so scared that he ran away, almost using up all his strength. However, after running a hundred meters, he was suddenly tripped by a piece of wood. When he tried to get up, someone held him down.
