Cheng Yue and the others chatted for a while with Aunt Li and Aunt Zhou, then went home happily.

Not only was the breakup of the engagement settled, but even the people who were going to harvest the wheat were found. By the way, I also saw Chen Ping getting slapped in the face by everyone, and I felt so good.

As for how Chen Ping and his men harvested the wheat, she didn't care. Not only did she not care, she even wanted to watch them make fun of them.

Who told them not to behave like human beings and live their lives peacefully but to make her unhappy?

She would laugh at those who were eager to be punished, and hoped that they would become worse and worse.

In the past, all the dirty work was pushed to Chen An and the original owner's family. After living a life of luxury for a few years, he really thought he had become a rich master?

Didn't she say that she was capable and didn't have to endure the hardship of farming? Then she would see if they were that lucky.

Zhao watched everyone walk away and stammered, "Big brother, I'm old. You and Xiaoshu have to work. Xiaogen has become like this, and your wife is still a lazy woman. How can we harvest the wheat? Otherwise, you can pay and find someone else..."

"How do you collect it? We collect it the same way others collect it!"

Chen Ping was already angry, and he became even more furious after hearing this. If it wasn't for the fact that Zhao was his mother, he really wanted to punch her!

Every elderly person in a family helps with the housework, but his mother is too old and hasn’t even cooked a meal in all these years!

Other people's lives are getting better and better, but all kinds of bad things keep happening to their family. I really don't know what's wrong with them!

Chen Ping always spoke in a soft voice and had never lost his temper like this. Zhao was frightened by Chen Ping's gloomy face and dared not say anything.

The more Chen Ping thought about it, the angrier he became. He flicked his sleeves and went into the house.

I thought I could easily control everyone with ten cents, but who knew Cheng Yue would show up halfway.

What did Aunt Zhou say? She was crazy to offer thirty cents for work!

If Cheng Yue wants to be a sucker, then let him be one. He won’t be one anyway!

Why not throw thirty cents to these villagers who know nothing?

You can collect it yourself, he won’t pay for it!

Cheng Yue returned home and remembered that the village head was going to take the letter of severance of engagement to the government office, so she asked Chen Lin to go there specially and told them to go together the next day.

The next day, Cheng Yue took Zhang Shaowen and the village head to the county town.

There was nothing in the village that required going to the government office. Even the head of the village had rarely been to the county town. Moreover, there were no ox carts in the past, so people had to walk every time.

It was the first time for the head of the village to ride in a bullock cart. Just like Wu and the others, it was so exciting that the wrinkles on his face deepened from smiling.

"I never thought that I, an old man, would be so lucky as to be able to ride in a bullock cart in this life."

To be honest, he really benefited from Cheng Yue. If she hadn't married into Houshui Village, how would he have had this opportunity?

The more Li Zheng thought about it, the happier he became. Even the anger that Chen Ping had stirred up yesterday was somewhat dissipated.

Cheng Yue smiled and said, "Uncle Lizheng is very blessed. You are becoming more and more blessed! Your son and daughter-in-law are filial, and your grandchildren are sensible. Others can't envy you enough!"

If the head of the village is nice to them, Cheng Yue is willing to coax him. As an old man, he must be kept happy.

Hearing this, the village head laughed even more happily. Although Houshui Village had a family like Chen Ping who didn't know how to behave, the Chen family wasn't without faults.

At least Chen An married a capable and good wife. It seems that their Houshui Village is blessed!

The group chatted and laughed, and soon arrived at the city gate.

"Leave me here, I'm going straight to the government office, you guys go get busy!"

As soon as we entered the city gate, the head of the village shouted at us to get off the car. He knew that Cheng Yue and the others had something to do and was afraid of delaying them.

"Uncle Lizheng, let's go directly to the shop. It's close to the government office. When you're done, come back to the shop. We can go home together at noon."

Chen An called on the headman to sit down, then whipped the horse and went to the shop.

Now that they were all here, the village head was still busy with his own affairs, and he was old, so we couldn't let him walk back by himself.

It would be better to wait for them, have lunch and go home together.

The head of the village thought about it and agreed. He thought that his arms and legs were old and weak, and he was not like when he was young. It would probably take him two days of rest to recover from the exhaustion of walking back, so he agreed.

When we arrived at the shop, the village head exclaimed, "I only knew you were doing business, but I never thought you were doing such a big business."

Such a big shop, on the main street, how much does it cost!

Although this shop was bought by Mr. Chen San, how could it be maintained if Cheng Yue was not capable?

The head of the village admired Cheng Yue even more, and he told Zhang Shaowen, "Shaowen, you must work hard. Your grandfather and father didn't have this opportunity, but you are lucky. You must know how to cherish it!"

Zhang Shaowen nodded and said, "I know, sir, don't worry!"

Cheng Yue joked, "Uncle Lizheng, you're reminding me several times a day. I'm afraid you'll make Shao Wen even more nervous, which will make him more likely to make mistakes."

The head of the village smiled and glared at Cheng Yue, "How can you make progress if you don't speak up? You are protecting him, how can you not even have this much tolerance?"

If you don’t remind them a few times, how can they remember? Elders are afraid that their children will go astray.

Zhang Shaowen scratched his head with a silly smile, and Cheng Yue said with a smile: "Uncle Lizheng, don't worry, Shaowen is a promising child and will not go astray."

The village head was naturally happy that his grandson was praised, but thinking that Cheng Yue and the others still had to do things, he couldn't keep talking, so he stood up and said:

"You guys should get busy. You don't have to chat with me, an old man. I'm going to the government office first."

"It's still early. Uncle Lizheng, why don't you sit down for a while and go later."

Cheng Yue and her friends set out early, and as riding a ox cart is faster than walking, they would arrive at the shop around seven o'clock every day.

I always feel that if I go to the yamen so early, there might be no one there, and I will have to wait there.

"Nothing, the government office has already opened, it's important to get down to business."

The head of the village said hello to Cheng Yue and the others and went to the yamen.

Cheng Yue and the others watched the head of the village leave and then went back to their work. Sure enough, the head of the village came back before the sale started.

The document of severing the relationship had been stamped with the official seal. The head of the village kept one copy to be returned to Chen Ping, and gave the other copy to Chen An and Cheng Yue.

While going to the kitchen, Cheng Yue threw the letter of separation into the space.

Chen Ning poured a cup of tea for the village chief and said softly, "Grandpa Village Chief, please sit here and take a rest. We will be busy soon and I am afraid we can't take care of you."

The head of the village twisted Chen Ning's little face lovingly, "Go! Don't worry about me."

The braised food was put on sale soon. The head of the village was shocked when he saw the Chen Lin brothers and sisters skillfully serving customers, weighing, picking up dishes, and calculating the bills.

He knew that Cheng Yue could read and write, as she was the one who taught the three children, but that was just knowledge. Seeing it with his own eyes was a different feeling.

It's really extraordinary that he can accomplish so many things at such a young age. Even he probably can't do it, and his own grandson still seems a little struggling compared to them.

Thinking about his own grandchildren, who are the same age as him and are still digging wild vegetables and growing crops, the village head fell into deep thought.

This is the difference between reading and not reading.
