The princess is farming with her baby, daddy, come find me soon

The situation became tense for a while, and the two sides were in a stalemate.

Landlord Zhu gritted his teeth and gave an order. The group of skinny and depressed servants behind him raised their fists and rushed towards Xiao Chu and others.

Xiao Chu has been proficient in wielding swords and guns since he was a child, so dealing with these weak servants is no problem for him.

He looked at the servant who rushed towards him with cold eyes, his heart filled with anger and disdain.

The servant looked at him and took a few steps back in fear.

Xiao Chu reached out and grabbed the collar of a servant in front of him and threw him aside. The person rushing over from the left was kicked to the ground.

The servant opened his mouth with difficulty and wanted to beg for mercy, but before he could say anything, he was kicked away by Xiao Chu.

The tenant farmers who had been patient for a long time also joined in. They all had fierce eyes and angry faces, as if they wanted to vent all the oppression and exploitation they had suffered in the past few years.

Suddenly the ground was filled with people groaning in pain.

Xiao Chu approached Landlord Zhu step by step, and every step he took was on Landlord Zhu's mind.

Landlord Zhu was so frightened by the scene that his face turned pale. He was no longer as arrogant and domineering as he was at the beginning.

My legs are so weak that I can hardly support myself.

"Why don't you continue talking?"

Landlord Zhu was so frightened that he trembled. "Please spare my life, sir. I am blind and blind. Please spare my life, sir."

Xiao Chu snorted coldly and looked at him with sharp eyes.

"Get lost. If I see you again, don't blame me for being rude!"

"Yes, little one, get out!"

After saying this, he called the people on the ground to get up with a pale face.

The servants lying on the ground, wailing in pain, helped each other to stand up, and followed the landlord Zhu, walking away with deep and shallow steps.

Xiao Chu looked at him with a cold face.

He turned around and apologized to the tenant farmer rather embarrassedly.

"I'm sorry for scaring you today. I won't bother you again in the future."

The tenant farmers headed by Zhang Jin waved their hands and said, "No, no, no, we are so lucky to have met such a good owner like Madam."

"You are kind, Madam will treat you well. That's all for today. I need to go back to town and tell Madam about what happened today."

"Go ahead and do your work. Let's go for a walk in the fields."

Xiao Chu nodded slightly, "Thank you for your help."

After the tenants left, Xiao Chu simply tidied up the front hall, locked the door, and hurried back to town.

......

"You said Landlord Zhu brought people here to cause trouble?"

Gu Manzhu sat back in her chair, her expression gloomy.

This landlord Zhu is really not a good person. He buys and sells women and bullies the weak.

How many people died in his hands.

If she hadn't escaped, the original owner would have probably died in his hands.

Xiao Chu rarely saw Gu Manzhu like this.

She sat quietly in the chair, the light shining through the gaps in the window onto her face, outlining her stern outline.

His eyes were focused and sharp, as if they could penetrate all obstacles. His brows were slightly furrowed, his lips were tightly closed, and his hands were gently stroking the armrests of the chair.

Gu Manzhu thought for a while and then opened her mouth to speak.

"After what happened today, he probably won't come to our door easily again, but it's better to be safe than sorry. You should be careful in Shangshan Village and take your own safety as the premise."

"it is good."

"Go get some rest first and eat more for dinner."

Xiao Chu's face turned red and his eyes became vague. Well, it’s not his fault. The food was just too delicious.

Gu Manzhu looked at him with amusement. He was just a half-grown child, and it was the time for him to grow up. It was said that half-grown boys would eat their fathers out of money.

"It's okay, eat more, there's plenty of food."

"Well, then, I'll go back to the house."

"Go."

As soon as Xiao Chu left, Gu Manzhu fell into deep thought again.

Sitting there and waiting for death is not her style, but she has no bargaining chips in her hand now.

Without destruction, there is no construction. Since there are no chips, then let's increase the chips.

In the evening, Gu Manzhu and Xu Bo talked for a long time in the room, accompanied by little babbling voices, and some decision was made.

The next day, Gu Manzhu called Hua Yueya to the house.

As soon as Hua Yueya arrived, she took Zhizhi in her arms. Hua Wangan held her hand and called her sister.

"Oh my, our Zhizhi has grown up again, auntie, give me a hug."

Made her giggle.

After playing with the child for a while, Hua Yueya looked at Gu Manzhu's slightly solemn expression, put the child in the cradle and asked Hua Wangan to play with her.

"what happened?"

Gu Manzhu pursed her lips and said, "Sister Hua, how is the profit of Huayi Pavilion now?"

"The current daily revenue has reached a new high. This batch of spring clothes is selling very well, and with the hot-selling backpacks, the profit is good."

"Well, I want to withdraw my share of the money first. I need it."

Hua Yueya burst out laughing when she heard this.

"I thought something big had happened. This is nothing. If you weren't here, this Huayi Pavilion would have been closed long ago. Let me go back and do the math. I'll get the money for you tomorrow."

"Okay, then I'll accept it with peace of mind."

Hua Yueya's hands have been used for needlework since she was a child, and they are kept very white and tender, without a single barb. An embroiderer's hands are her means of making a living.

Gu Manzhu felt the hand holding her was soft and warm.

"Manzhu, you are my benefactor. Let me treat you as my sister. Don't hide anything from me. If you need me, I will do my best."

Blinking slightly sore eyes.

"I know, Sister Hua, I won't be distant with you."

Zhizhi in the cradle next to them felt left out and made a sound, attracting the attention of both people.

"Do you just miss mommy? Come, mommy give you a hug."

After playing with the baby for a while, Hua Yueya took Hua Wangan back to Huayi Pavilion.

She organizes the account books of Huayi Pavilion every day and consolidates them every month. Now it is very easy to do the math.

I spent the whole afternoon counting the profits from last year to now.

Hua Yueya couldn't help feeling dizzy for a moment when she saw the number she calculated.

She knew that Huayi Pavilion had good profits, and had basically made profits every day since the renovation.

But now putting all the profits together, it is an extremely considerable amount.

These should be enough.

Gu Manzhu met with Hua Yueya in the morning and made an appointment with Wang Dachuan in the afternoon.

"Brother Wang, long time no see, how is the seafood store business?"

Wang Dachuan was still tanned. "Hahaha. Madam, thanks to you, if you want to eat sea crabs now you have to make reservations in advance. Business is so good."

"Hahaha, that's good, come and have some tea."

Gu Manzhu poured him a cup of tea.

"Brother Wang, I asked you to come here today because I want to talk to you about the crab dividend."

Wang Dachuan took the teacup and took a sip.

"The dividends are usually paid at the end of the year. What happened to you? Do you need money?"

"To be honest, I do need some money now. My husband's business has suffered a bit of a loss, and now we need to settle the accounts. What do you think?"

Wang Dachuan put down the teacup in his hand and tapped it lightly on the table, making a sound.

"Madam, business people are most afraid of encountering such uncertainties. I can't take out your urgent need for the time being."

Gu Manzhu filled his teacup.

She raised her chin and looked at him with a pair of burning peach blossom eyes.

"Since I broke the rules first, I will make amends."

Wang Dachuan thought for a moment, "What compensation?"

"I'll tell you how to make garlic sauce and fried chili peppers, plus a recipe for a dish that's sure to be popular. I'll give you two tiers of profit from this dish. What do you think?"

"really?"

"really."

"Okay, I'll go back to get the silver and write a document about the profit sharing."

"Okay, let's have some snacks."

Wang Dachuan stared at the snacks on the table for a long time. They were as beautiful as flowers, but he wondered how they tasted.

Pick up a piece and take a bite. The layers are crispy and the filling inside is sweet but not greasy.

He ate several pieces and drank up the tea in the cup.

This pastry must be loved by the noble ladies of Fengjing.

Wang Dachuan coughed lightly and said, "Can that dish be replaced with this pastry?"

Gu Manzhu was surprised.

"Of course," it's just an ordinary peach blossom pastry.

"It's settled then. I'll come see you tomorrow."

"it is good."
