Old Man Zhou acted quickly. After returning from Qin's house, he visited several villagers and finalized the personnel who would continue to clean the fish pond tomorrow.

Those villagers were strictly selected by Old Man Zhou, and they are honest and decent people in their daily lives.

The families chosen by Old Man Zhou were overjoyed and naturally very happy, so no one refused.

Working for the Qin family pays well and also includes a free lunch with very generous portions. This news has spread throughout the village by now.

I didn’t expect that. I was just envious of others, but now it’s my family’s turn.

The next morning, those who came to work brought their own tools and arrived at the fish pond early.

The villagers who were waiting to watch the fun were annoyed when they saw that there were suddenly a lot more people working in the fish pond.

Feeling that he had not taken the lead, he shamelessly went to the Qin family to ask for a job.

Seeing the people working in the fish pond, talking and laughing, some villagers couldn't sit still.

After picking up some things, he went straight to Zhou's or Qin's house.

The reason why he went to the Qin family was that he thought that the Qin family might have a say with Old Lady Qin. As long as Old Lady Qin agreed, he would have a chance to earn the money.

As for those who went to Zhou's house, they were much more active.

When those people saw that it was Old Man Zhou who was in charge yesterday, they knew that the Qin family had handed the task over to the Zhou family again.

He thought of asking Old Lady Zhou for help and arranging for his own people to work in the fish pond as well.

The result was that the things were brought back the same way they were carried there.

Old Mrs. Qin didn't care at all, saying that the patient was not fully recovered and needed to recuperate physically and mentally.

All matters concerning the fish pond are arranged by granddaughter Qin Ruo herself, and she no longer takes care of the household.

Those who went to Qin's house were sent away by Old Lady Qin with just a few words.

Old Lady Zhou was the worst. The villagers who came to visit her actually secretly discussed the terms with her.

He declared that as long as the Zhou family could help arrange for their people to work, he would be willing to take out ten cents a day from the wages he earned to "respect" the Zhou family.

He also bewitched Old Lady Zhou, thinking that he could get ten cents for nothing by arranging one person, so what about three people?

At the end of the day, it's like earning thirty cents for free.

Before the visitor could finish his words, he was driven out by Old Lady Zhou.

Old Mrs. Zhou knew very well the character of the people who put forward these conditions.

They are all lazy people who just want to work at Qin's fish pond. The wages are paid on a daily basis anyway, so they can get some wages just by showing up.

Old Mrs. Zhou is not a short-sighted person. It sounds tempting to arrange for someone to work there for ten cents a day, but in reality, if she really wants to do so, I'm afraid the Qin family's favor will end here.

The fact that Qin Ruo was able to entrust the fish pond cleaning work to the Zhou family for supervision showed her trust in the Zhou family.

Not to mention, his own Dazhu will still work for Qin Ruo in the future.

People came one after another, some of whom wanted to work in the fish pond.

Some people wanted to ask Qin Ruo to arrange some other work for her through her.

Some even registered in advance to borrow oxen from the Qin family to plow the fields in the spring of next year.

What the hell is going on? Do you really think you can be the master of the Qin family?

What made Old Lady Zhou feel most incredible was that Qin Huaihai, the second son of Qin Zhengde, the old patriarch of the Qin family, was also here.

He didn't think of bribing Old Lady Zhou. Instead, he acted like Qin Ruo's elder, saying that he wanted to keep an eye on his niece to prevent any mistakes.

As the saying goes, you can't write two Qin characters with one stroke, it is only natural for me to help my niece solve her problems.

This made Old Mrs. Zhou laugh out of anger.

Who are the people from Qin Huaishan's lineage? Do they think they are blind?

Typical of no gain, no early rise!

In the past, when they bullied orphans and widows, and occupied their houses and land, they never mentioned that they were their own people.

The Qin family went through all those hard times, have they forgotten who caused it?

Even when Qin Huaizheng disappeared in the mountain, except for the new village head Qin Huaisheng's family who went into the mountain, no one from Qin Huaihai's lineage showed up at all, acting as if it had nothing to do with them.

Seeing that the Qin family was getting better off, he wanted to come and take advantage of the situation? How could such a good thing happen?

Old Mrs. Zhou couldn't understand how Qin Huaihai could be so shameless as to say such things?

The so-called patriarch of the Qin family, Qin Zhengde, is not a good person and is full of bad intentions.

It is true that a dragon gives birth to a dragon, a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix, and a mouse’s son will dig holes.

Old Mrs. Zhou was really angry on behalf of the Qin family, so she showed no mercy to Qin Huaihai.

She told Qin Huaihai in a cold tone that she had no say in the matter. If he really wanted to manage the construction of the fish pond, he should go find Qin Ruo, the real boss.

Old Mrs. Zhou is certain that Qin Huaihai will not get any good treatment at the hands of Qin Ruo.

But she really felt sorry for Qin Ruo and had to devote her attention to dealing with these monsters.

She called out to Qin Huaihai who was about to leave, and started to scold him with a sullen face.

"I'm afraid even if Ruo'er were here, she wouldn't respond to your calling me niece."

"What do you mean you can't write two Qin characters with one stroke? Although I am old, I am not senile. If I remember correctly, your Qin family and Ruo'er family have long been separated. You don't have to worry about it..."

Old Lady Zhou's words were not at all roundabout, and Qin Huaihai was so angry that he threw his sleeves and left.

Before leaving, he told Old Lady Zhou in a rage that it was not the place for an outsider like Old Lady Zhou to interfere in the affairs of his Qin family and the Qin family at the end of the village.

Construction of the Qin family fish pond started yesterday. The daily wages are 60 cents, and lunch includes meat and soup.

It turns out that the expenses are several hundred coins a day. Today, ten more people were added to the work at the same time. The labor expenses alone are one or two taels of silver a day.

This fish pond will take at least six or seven days to clean up, plus the food expenses, how can ten taels of silver be less?

After learning that his father was planning to marry Qin Ruo to his wife's nephew after the new year, Qin Huaishan automatically regarded Qin Ruo's money as his own.

Spending ten taels of silver on a broken fish pond is a waste of money! The other party is wasting the Qin family's money.

Qin Huaishan was very excited when he learned from the villagers that the Qin family had recently bought not only oxen but also a horse-drawn carriage.

Those fifty acres of wasteland suddenly didn't smell good anymore.

He couldn't wait to go to the Zhou family first instead of going directly to the Qin family, naturally because he wanted to test the Zhou family's attitude.

Who would have thought that I would be humiliated by Old Lady Zhou instead?

As soon as Qin Huaihai returned home, he immediately looked for his father, wanting Qin Zhengde to implement what he had planned before in advance.

He was afraid that by the time the new year came, with Qin Ruo's generosity, all the money would have been spent.

As soon as Qin Huaihai left, Old Mrs. Zhou walked towards Qin's house.

Although Old Lady Zhou believed in Qin Ruo's ability, it was easy to dodge an open attack but difficult to guard against an arrow from the dark, and it was even harder to guard against a villain.

But Qin Huaishan came suddenly today, which was not a good sign.

Judging from the tone of their voices, those shameless old guys from the Qin family must be up to something bad again.

Qin Huaishanhai is brainless, but those old guys are old foxes, full of calculations.

She had to remind Qin Ruo to be on guard against the Qin family.

When Old Lady Zhou arrived, Qin Ruo and Qin Zimu were squatting in the firewood room, looking at sweet potato vines in several broken wooden pots.

Anything produced by this space must be of high quality, and Qin Ruo is just going through the process at this moment.
