Chapter 39 Zhao's Mother Disclaims Relationship
"Let me make it clear to everyone first. Yang Xiuying has already separated from us. Her personal behavior has nothing to do with our Zhao family."
When Zhao's mother heard that Yang Xiuying was going to be expelled from the village, she hurriedly distanced herself from the matter. She didn't want to clean up her mess. How could she be worthy of being the Zhao family's daughter-in-law!
"As for the rice exchange, our Zhao family will not help her solve the problem."
Tian Guilan, who was standing next to Zhao's mother, heard that Yang Xiuying was going to be driven out of the village. She was already thinking about the wooden house Yang Xiuying had built on the hillside. Although it was made of wood and had a thatched roof, it could not be compared with the Zhao family's brick and tile house, but she didn't spend a penny of the money she had picked up for free. She was happy just thinking about it. Her sons were growing up and would definitely get married in the future.
The Zhao family only has three brick and tile houses. When their son gets married and has a grandson, there will not be enough space for him to live in.
Thinking of this, Tian Guilan became even happier. Not only did Yang Xiuying give her the house for free, but she was also driven out of the village. She thought she was so powerful, but it turned out she was just a fool.
Mother Zhao turned to her eldest daughter-in-law who was standing beside her and was very proud of herself, and whispered, "This is what happens when you are disrespectful to your mother-in-law and go against her."
This is also a warning to the eldest daughter-in-law.
"Mother, don't worry. I will definitely be filial to you, but I won't be like that ungrateful Yang Xiuying."
Tian Guiying lowered her head and looked at Zhao's mother with a pleasing look.
Ma Ergun saw Ma Laifu in the crowd and said, "Why aren't you talking? Have you forgotten what you said before you came?"
Ma Laifu is Ma Ergun's cousin. When Ma Ergun wanted to make trouble, he naturally called his brothers together. Now, only he and Zhou Dazhui were making trouble here.
The timid and obedient Ma Laifu met his brother's gaze and swallowed his breath. He knew his brothers best what kind of people they were. They followed Zhou Dazhu to make trouble just to take advantage of the chaos and extort more food.
Ma Lai Fu, who had been bullied by Ma Ergun since childhood, naturally did not dare to bully Ma Ergun, but as for bullying orphans and widows, he would not do it even if he was beaten by Ma Ergun.
Ma Laifu looked at the old village chief again and whispered, "If the old village chief's family retreats, I will retreat too. If I have no idea, I will follow the old village chief."
Ma Ergun saw that Ma Laifu had actually dared to lose face, so he pointed at Ma Laifu and cursed, "You coward, what are you afraid of? What is there to be afraid of? Wait until that widow cheats you out of the food you worked so hard to pick, and you'll regret it."
Ma Laifu lowered his head, hunched his head and stood aside, letting Ma Gun scold him without saying a word.
The old village chief glanced at the crowd and said to his youngest son, "Shenghui, go get some pen and paper and register the people who want to withdraw. Then go to your aunt Xiuying's house and ask her to withdraw.
I will return the same amount of avocados and bracken rice to you as the amount of avocados and bracken you gave Xiuying before."
When Zhou Dazhu heard that what he wanted was milk apple and fern?
"That's a mistake. What I want is rice. We agreed in advance to exchange milk fruit and fern for rice. I came to you to ask the widow to give us the rice.
We can't be fooled for nothing. Even if it's her punishment for bragging, I don't care where she gets the rice from, as long as she gives it to me."
Zhao's mother, who was standing by and watching the excitement, heard this and thought, "How could this be wrong?" She hurriedly shouted, "I have already said that our Zhao family is not involved in this matter. The trouble that little bitch caused has nothing to do with us. Don't even think that our Zhao family will make up for her loss.
If you ask me, you must be stupid to believe that there is no such thing as exchanging milk apples and bracken for rice in this world."
The old village chief looked at Zhou Dazhu with a sharp look: "Whatever you gave me, I will give you back! How can you ask someone to give you rice?"
Zhao's mother agreed with this: "Yes, we are all from the same village. Just ask her to return the milk apple and fern to you. Finally, drive her out of the village. It can be regarded as teaching her a lesson."
Deng Defa heard this and started shouting, "That's fine too. Let her return more as compensation. Just double the amount she paid before and return it to me. I won't pursue the matter."
The villagers burst into laughter when they heard this.
"Do you think this is buying big and buying small?"
"Defa still can't forget about gambling!"
"It's enough to retreat. There's no reason to ask people to retreat more."
Seeing that his elder brother was unwilling to retreat or stand up to speak, Ma Ergun cursed in his heart.
Zhou Dazhu said that Widow Yang was a liar. If the Zhao family really knew the owner of Fenglailou, why did they suffer for so many years? Fenglailou is the largest restaurant in Nanyang Prefecture. If they really had that kind of relationship, they would have become rich by sending some snacks to the restaurant.
Widow Yang was just using this little trick to get some food, but she shouldn't have ended up in trouble.
Zhou Dazhu stared at the people queuing for registration and laughed. If Yang Xiuying's job failed, the situation would fall into his hands. Since the owner of Fenglailou was owed a favor by the second son of the Zhao family, he naturally had to give some face to the eldest son of the Zhao family.
To put it bluntly, Yang Xiuying is just an outsider.
Then I will team up with the boss of the Zhao family to take over this job, and give some kickbacks to the owner of Fenglai Tower. I don’t believe that person will not be tempted by the benefits.
Zhou Dazhu had already conspired with Zhao Cunliang before Zhao's mother came to find him, but they had not yet figured out how to disrupt Huang Yang Xiuying's job. With the help of Zhao's mother, this gave them a reason.
The village chief's youngest son, Li Shenghui, was registering
Ma Ergun had a small family and was lazy, so he only handed in three pounds of milk fruit.
Zhou Dazhu's family is large, and his children are old enough to help with the work, so they contributed a total of three kilograms of fern and two kilograms of milk fruit.
Zhou Defa had even more people who benefited from his wealth. His sons had all started their own families and had contributed a lot of milk apples and ferns, but they were all suppressed by him.
Ma Ergun couldn't persuade Ma Laifu, so he asked the youngest brother Ma San to go. The youngest brother of the Ma family didn't want to withdraw at first, but was pestered by Ma Ergun and had no choice but to withdraw. He had originally been waiting and watching, thinking that if he could exchange it for rice, he would exchange it back.
Anyway, their family can change at any time, so this exchange is not a big deal. As long as they don’t suffer any loss, it’s fine.
Li Shenghui handed the registered paper to the old village chief.
The old village chief looked at these people. These people usually like to stir up trouble in the village. He was not surprised to see their names on the list. He looked at them and warned them, "Once you withdraw, you can't change it. Don't cause trouble for Xiuying and her daughter again."
"What are you talking about? I'm old, how could I bother an orphan and a widow?"
"Yeah, just return it to us."
"We are all reasonable. Who would make trouble if there is nothing wrong?"
