The young couple from the farm fights back

Chapter 50 Zhou Laosan goes to town to work

In the afternoon, Jiang Li was doing needlework in the yard, while Zhou Chunfeng was alone driving sharp wooden stakes into the top of the wall. The child was still asleep from his nap, and the couple chatted casually.

Zhou Chunfeng learned that she had rescued a female wolf in the mountains today and admired her boldness. Fortunately, although wolves are ferocious, they are also spiritual species, and the one she saved was a dying female wolf.

Jiang Li thought of Song Shi and couldn't help but pause her needlework. "Do you think Song Shi will bring people up the mountain to capture the family of three?"

Zhou Chunfeng suppressed his chuckle and said, "It's possible."

Zhou Chunfeng had dealt with the clan leader two or three times, and his overall impression was neither good nor bad. They were all country people, and it was normal for them to have some thoughts and ideas for their livelihood.

As soon as he finished speaking, the half-closed courtyard door was pushed open, and the person who came was Dashuan.

"Hey, big brother, why don't you ask your younger brother to help you build the wall?"

As soon as Dashuan entered the yard, he saw Zhou Chunfeng busy raising the wall. Thinking of how Tiedan and his gang of hooligans climbed over the wall into the yard yesterday, he couldn't help but admire Zhou Chunfeng's brain.

Zhou Chunfeng sat on the top of the wall with his legs slumped, his mouth curled up in annoyance, and gestured: "That's perfect, pass me the stake from below."

"Hey, alright, big brother."

Jiang Li looked at the two of them with amusement, then lowered her head to continue sewing winter clothes.

Dashuan remembered why he came here, turned around and said to Jiang Li, "Sister-in-law, I heard from my wife that you saved a female wolf in the mountains today."

"Yeah." Jiang Li responded without raising his head.

"Ah~." Suddenly, Dashuan sighed and said, "Sister-in-law, you are really brave. What if that she-wolf gets angry and hurts you? What will you do then?"

Zhou Chunfeng raised his eyebrows. What Dashuan said made sense.

Jiang Li looked up at Dashuan and heard him say, "Just now, Song took her husband and a few young men from the tribe up the mountain. They had intended to capture the family of three and share it with the others, but they only brought back a dead male wolf."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Li couldn't help but look at Zhou Chunfeng. Sure enough, they had guessed it right.

This Song family has repeatedly stepped on the ideas that Jiang Li dislikes the most. It seems that she can no longer take her up the mountain in the future.

Although the villagers were struggling to make ends meet, with only a few meals a year, the male wolf had been dead for a long time, and had been mauled to death by a more ferocious prey, so he might have carried some disease. Furthermore, the male wolf had been caught in a hunter's trap, and was ultimately the hunter's prey. Stealing someone else's harvest was bound to breed resentment.

"I heard from those young men who went up the mountain that they couldn't find the mother wolf after searching for a while. Otherwise, if they had caught the mother wolf and her cubs, they could have shared more wolf meat."

"..."

Zhou Chunfeng glanced at Dashuan coldly: "Do you want to eat?"

Dashuan wanted to nod, but seeing Zhou Chunfeng's cold expression, he immediately shook his head like a rattle: "No!"

Zhou Chunfeng took the wooden pillar from his hand and used mud to build the top of the wall. He said in a low voice, "There's nothing to eat with this kind of wild animal."

Dashuan: ..., really? He hasn't eaten wolf meat yet.

But: "Big brother is right, it's right to listen to big brother."

puff~

Jiang Li could see what Dashuan was thinking and couldn't help laughing out loud.

The young man knew how to read people's expressions. "It's not like our family can't afford meat. If we want to eat meat, we can go to the butcher at the village entrance and buy a few pounds of meat to take home. It's not as delicious as wolf meat."

Dashuan thought about it and agreed: "Yes, what sister-in-law said is right."

But when he thought of what those young men said, Dashuan couldn't help swallowing.

They said that if they caught a wolf cub, it would be delicious if roasted.

Unfortunately, they didn’t catch him!

"By the way, big brother and big sister, have you heard that Zhou Laosan has become the shopkeeper in town?"

"..."

Jiang Li and Zhou Chunfeng looked at each other in surprise. Jiang Li remembered that there was no such plot in the book. After Zhou Xingyue and Lin were taken to the capital, Zhou Laosan and Zhou Laoer stayed in Shilitun, waiting for the people from the capital to take them to the capital to enjoy wealth and glory.

Could it be that Zhou Xingyue’s rebirth affected certain nodes?

Jiang Li thought about it and asked, "Do you know which shop he is the shopkeeper of?"

"Hey~, how could you not know? As soon as Zhou Laosan was brought to town, the Zhou family wanted everyone in Shili Village to know that their Zhou Laosan had hit the jackpot and got a job at the most famous Huiri Food Store in town."

After hearing this, Jiang Li had nothing to understand about the Ouyang family's business.

The Ouyang family, the first royal merchant in Daqing, is most famous for its grain store, Hui Ri Xing, which is spread throughout the entire Daqing Prefecture and its business is booming.

It seems that Zhou Laosan was chosen by the Ouyang family as an exception because of Zhou Xingyue's relationship and became the small shopkeeper of the branch store in the town.

Being a shopkeeper is a respectable job and comes with real power. All the farmers in the countryside envy it. No wonder the Zhou family was quick to spread the news.

"Very good." Jiang Li smiled. It would be a good thing for their eldest family that there would be no Zhou Laosan in the village in the future.

At the same time, the Zhou family.

Zhou Xingyue was so depressed that she shed tears in her room. This afternoon, the Ouyang family's steward in town came again. He said that in order to repay the Zhou family's life-saving grace, Master Ouyang asked his third brother to be an apprentice to the grain store in town. After he became proficient, he would take over the manager's affairs.

My mother and third brother agreed immediately. Third brother even packed a few clothes and followed the manager to the town. Zhou Xingyue couldn't stop him.

Why did Master Ouyang accept her purse and not reply to her letter? At least he shouldn't ask her how she knew about the person who was secretly plotting against her?

Now, in order to distance himself from her and repay her for saving his life, Master Ouyang arranged for his third brother to work in the grain store in town.

Although it was a good job, Zhou Xingyue knew very well that once her family accepted the job, it would mean that she would no longer have any connection with Master Ouyang.

When Lin entered the house, she found her daughter dropping gold beans again. She knew that her daughter was worried that when the third son arrived in the town, Master Ouyang would not remember her daughter's kindness in the future.

"Oh, my dear Yue'er, please don't be angry. I'm telling you, your third brother going to work in town is a good thing."

Zhou Xingyue felt sick to her stomach when she heard her mother say such things: "Mom, what's the good of it? From now on, our family and Mr. Ouyang will be even."

"Who said that?" Lin hurriedly took her daughter's hand and comforted her, "That's not true. How can this be considered a clean break? You saved his life. Arranging a respectable job for your third brother is not a sincere way of repaying a favor."

"In my opinion, Master Ouyang wants to be closer to our family, so he arranged for your third brother to work in town. In the future, when my precious Yue'er and Master Ouyang are married, not only will you have the final say in the grain shops in town, but also in the county and even the prefectural capital."

Zhou Xingyue really didn't want to complain about her mother's naiveté. If it were in her previous life, she would definitely have heard such words.

After all, I have lived this life over again and experienced too many worldly affairs. My horizons have also been broadened. The twists and turns in things are buried very deeply.

Now that the matter was settled, what else could she say? Crying and making a fuss was not the right thing to do. She just hoped that Master Ouyang would follow the note she gave him and verify whether the person who secretly harmed him was true, and that he would be grateful for her help and contact her again.
