"So that's how it is. Yes, my eldest brother has been staying in the He family all the time and never comes home to serve our parents, nor does he use money to support them. It's really a bit..." Zhao Qiqi seemed to be unable to speak and looked at the people around her. There were so many people here, and she seemed embarrassed to say everything in front of so many people.

"I used to hear that the He family was very rich, but now Brother Zhao Qiqi has become the son-in-law of the He family and has gained nothing."

"That's right, she's marrying into the man's family. It's really embarrassing for us men."

"It seems that Aunt Zhao's eldest brother is not having a good time in the He Mansion, otherwise he wouldn't come to this married daughter's place every few days to cause trouble."

Mother Zhao was even more embarrassed. She originally wanted to lie on the ground crying and refusing to leave, but now more and more people were watching. Her son was still in the He family and was considered a well-known figure. She gritted her teeth and fainted.

Xiang secretly thought that it was not good. If her mother fainted, it might be said that her eldest sister-in-law had done something to her. She quickly spoke for Zhao Qiqi and said what she was not convenient to say: "Xiao Cao, come here, help your eldest aunt to help your father-in-law to rest. See, this son has not been home for many days, and he missed him too much and was tired, so he fainted."

Gu Xiaocao nodded quickly and helped the person into the house with Zhao Qiqi.

"Second brother and sister-in-law, arrange for people to work first."

Xiang nodded quickly, took out the last list, and called Gu Yanyan again. She couldn't understand the words on it, so she needed Gu Yanyan's help to know which was which. However, it was different from the previous time when she arranged people. Now, every time she heard Gu Yanyan read a name, she would secretly read it several times in her mind to write it down.

Fortunately, the people in the village all chose simple names. Xiang remembered the general idea and felt a little relieved.

If she was really useless, she guaranteed that her sister-in-law would kick her out and replace her with someone else.

"Xiao Cao, go out first and see if your mother needs any help."

Zhao Qiqi's tone was gentle and warm. Zhao's mother was lying on the bed, but her hands were shaking slightly out of control.

"I advise you not to pretend in front of me."

When Zhao Qiqi saw Gu Xiaocao close the door and go out, he spoke coldly.

Mother Zhao hesitated for a while, but finally couldn't help but open her eyes. She smiled ingratiatingly and didn't dare to hold Zhao Qiqi's hand anymore.

She was thinking that if things didn't work out, she would just stay at Zhao Qiqi's house, but Zhao Qiqi's attitude now made her lose all confidence: "Qiqi, look at you, you are so capable now, it's only right for you to help your eldest brother and your father, what do you think?"

"Why, did Zhao Licheng ask you to come again?"

As soon as Zhao Qiqi saw the guilty expression on her mother's face, she knew that she had guessed right.

"Your eldest brother also wants me to care about you. After all, we are a real family. You came out of my belly. How can others really treat you wholeheartedly?"

"If you really care about me, you shouldn't come here to cause trouble for me. You are disrespectful to your elders, so I don't have to respect you. You don't even care about the mother-daughter relationship, but you want me to care? So I should be the one, right?"

Mother Zhao was choked and her voice became smaller and smaller: "Then you can't help others to deal with your eldest brother because of these things? When your sister-in-law inherits the He family, the He family will belong to your eldest brother. What do you want? Why do you have to work so hard on this kind of thing and open a workshop?"

Zhao Qiqi burst out laughing: "Since you look down on me, why bother me about this matter?" Zhao Qiqi was really amused. Did he really think that if He Honglian inherited the He family, the He family could change its surname to Zhao?

"You...you! Zhao Qiqi, when your elder brother succeeds, what will you have? Do you really want to go against your elder brother at this time?"

"Then I wish big brother to get what he wants. I am not as lucky as big brother. When big brother becomes rich, I will not follow him to benefit from it."

Mother Zhao widened her eyes, as if she really didn't expect Zhao Qiqi to be so short-sighted!

Zhao Qiqi pressed down her hand that was pointing at him and said, "I still have some tolerance for you. Don't set foot in Zhaojia Village again. Otherwise, don't blame me for making you lose face."

She really didn't want this family to come and cause trouble every few days. She couldn't bear such a blessing!

Zhao's mother pouted and wanted to continue making trouble, but Zhao Qiqi scolded her: "If you continue to make trouble, I will spread the news that your son is marrying into someone else's family. Let's see who is shameless, you or me!" Zhao's father attached great importance to face and tried to cover up the matter.

"Just leave by yourself later. If I see you again when I come back, don't blame me for being rude."

Mother Zhao was frightened by Zhao Qiqi's aura and her expression was frozen. How come this damn girl is getting more and more powerful?

No, she grabbed Zhao Qiqi and said, "I won't make trouble anymore. Just give me five taels of silver, and I won't look for you anymore." If she went back empty-handed, Zhao's father would beat her to death. Before Zhao Qiqi got married, it was Zhao Qiqi who was beaten by Zhao's father. Since Zhao Qiqi got married, Zhao's father only beat her. Over the years, she had accumulated a lot of resentment towards Zhao Qiqi.

"Five taels of silver? Why don't you go and rob him? Has your son ever given you five taels of silver?"

Mother Zhao suddenly recalled that Zhao Licheng didn't even have enough money to spend on himself and still needed them to subsidize him, so how could he possibly give them money?

"Your eldest brother is a boy, so naturally he costs more."

It's a boy, about thirty years old.

"Since he won't give it to you, why should I, a married woman, give it to you? Well, there's a bunch of pickled cabbage. If you can take it away, I'll give it to you." Zhao Qiqi pointed to something in the corner and smiled maliciously.

When the original body went back to her parents' home before, Zhao's mother brought her these things.

Zhao Qiqi ignored her and went out to do her work.

The fire in the house was crackling and the flames were constantly surging. Zhao Qiqi looked at the wooden house and felt something was not good. He still had to start the work while replacing the blue bricks and stones and pay attention to fire safety.

"Boss Zhao." When several people saw her come in, they didn't know how to address her.

"Just call me whatever you want." She herself also felt it was weird.

Two workers were stirring the big pot to speed up the overall combustion. In the next room, lard was being boiled. There was about a thousand kilograms of lard. Some were washing the lard, some were cutting it into pieces, and some were refining the oil.
