The younger sister-in-law falsely accused the sickly uncle and ran away with the baby

"Old Four! I heard you're hiring! How much per day? What exactly do you do?"

"Old Four! I held you in my arms when you were little, you better hire me!"

"Fourth Brother! Your father and I are as close as brothers. If you don't want me, your father will beat you."

When they heard that they were recruiting, most of the men from Hexi Village and Hedong Village came.

One of them said, "I held you in my arms when you were a child," and the other said, "I gave you food when you were a child." Yu Dehou's face was frozen with laughter, but he still maintained his character.

"My dear uncles! I don't have the final say on this matter. My wife and my daughter have the final say. Besides, they are all responsible for cooking. I'm afraid you uncles have never even been to the kitchen at home. How can you do this job? Hurry up and get the women in your homes over here."

When those people heard this, they immediately became unhappy. "Old Four, you can't always be such a coward. What do your wife and daughter know? Those women have long hair and short knowledge. At critical moments, they have to rely on us men. And if they don't know how to learn, they will be fine as long as you pay them enough."

"I heard that I paid 30 wen a day to build your house. For a relative like us, you should at least pay 40 wen, right?"

Yu Dehou chuckled and spread his hands, "I don't have a penny, so I can't give it out."

"I can only listen to my daughter and daughter-in-law."

Yu Dehou's cowardice really made those people angry.

Finally, he could only shift his target to Liang Shulan. This time, he changed his strategy. He stopped talking about things like "I held you when you were a child" and started talking about Old Man Yu and Old Lady Yu. "Let me tell you, your father-in-law and I are closer than brothers. If it were your father-in-law now, I would give him 40 cents, not to mention 50 cents!"

"I've helped your family a lot in the past. If your parents-in-law were here, they would have invited me in without hesitation!"

Liang Shulan was speechless. These deadbeats were so shameless. Everyone knew what kind of people Old Man Yu and Old Lady Yu were. If they didn't pick up money when they went out, they would be considered as losing money. How could they possibly invite them in and give them 50 coins?

Anyway, she didn't indulge him. "20 cents! Only girls, no lunch! Do it if you want~"

The old man opposite suddenly became excited and raised his hand to hit him.

Liang Shulan pulled out a kitchen knife, held it across her chest, and sneered, "Uncle, do you think this is your home? If you dare to make a move, I'll chop you into pieces today."

The person opposite looked at the kitchen knife flashing with cold light and immediately swallowed his saliva.

Then he left cursing.

Yu Ruyue also got an axe and sat steadily beside them. Soon, those arrogant and conceited old men went back.

Then all the young girls and wives in the family were driven over, and even the old woman who was trembling with a cane was pulled up from her hospital bed!

Yu Ruyue sighed as she looked at the shriveled women in front of her, whose bodies were covered in patches and even looked a little frightened.

In fact, the women in the village are quite simple. Except for a few gossipy women who like to gossip, most of the rest are timid because they have suffered domestic violence for many years.

They came forward one by one, first introduced themselves, and then talked about what kind of noodles they could make.

Yu Ruyue sat aside and pointed directly at the gossipers like Old Lady Wang, Kang Lanhua, Gao Laidi, and Zhang Huiyun, saying, "Don't gossip about other people!"

Then he pointed at Gao Yan and Yu Laowu's wife and said, "The Yu family doesn't want them!"

Finally, he pointed at the people in the crowd who always took advantage of others and said, "Don't be sneaky and take advantage of others."

A quarter of the people were eliminated instantly.

When Old Lady Wang and those gossipy women heard this, they became angry instantly.

"Why don't you want me? Believe it or not, I will overturn all your stalls here and make it impossible for you to continue."

Gao Yan was also furious. "You little bitch! I'm your third aunt. This place belongs to our Yu family. Why don't you want me? Believe it or not, I'll beat you to death!"

Those who are used to being sneaky and petty thieves were so angry that their faces turned red. "You damn girl! I am an honest man! Why don't you want it? If you dare to refuse, we will destroy your place and stop you from doing it."

Yu Ruyue held an axe and stood in front of them with a domineering look. "Come on! Let me see how you can stop me from doing this!"

"You silly girl, don't think I'm afraid of you just because you're holding a knife! Do you believe I'll kill you first?"

Just as these women finished their threats, Village Chief Shen and the elders of the Shen family came over in a domineering manner!

Village Chief Shen received it and said to the person who had just spoken: "Say it again, who do you want to kill?"

"Did Ruyue say anything wrong? How many times have you been caught stealing? Do you want me to send you to the authorities? Let the officials make the final judgment."

The woman was so frightened that she quickly shook her head. "No need! I was just joking because I was angry! Don't take it seriously, Village Chief!"

Village Chief Shen glared at her unhappily, then looked at Gao Yan, "Why? Your parents-in-law and husband have all gone in, and you want to go in too?"

Gao Yan didn't dare to continue speaking and left in shame.

Then he looked at those gossipers and asked, "What else do you do all day besides gossiping about other people's affairs?"

"Let's stand here today and see who dares to continue making trouble. Don't blame me for being rude."

The elders of the Shen family also stood up and echoed, "Anyone who dares to stop Miss Ruyue from opening a factory is against my Shen family!"

With the village chief and clan elders in charge, no one dared to raise any objections.

Finally, 35 people were selected!

Yu Ruyue stood on a high place and gave instructions: "Work will start tomorrow. Go home today to shower, wash your hair and cut your nails. We will check everyone tomorrow. If anyone's hygiene is not up to standard, they don't need to come!"

"If you're lazy and slack off at work, and you spread rumors about what's happening here, then you don't have to come. If you cause any damage to my place, you'll have to pay me."

"If you feel the conditions are harsh, quit immediately!"

How could those women miss this opportunity to supplement their family income? They nodded in agreement immediately. However, when they came the next day, two of them were still covered in dust and dirt, with black mud even under their fingernails.

He Ye was a little confused. "Didn't I tell you yesterday to go back and take a shower, change into clean clothes and come back? Why are you still like this?"

The two men did not think they had done anything wrong. Instead, they smiled and pulled He Ye's sleeves, leaving two clear black handprints on them.

"Yesterday I went home to cook and wash clothes, and then helped my old man wash his feet. Then it was time for dinner again. My little grandson heard that his grandmother could make money, so he insisted on having dumplings. So I cut a piece of fresh meat and made some dumplings. When I finished, it was dark. I wanted to go take a bath in the river, but there were too many mosquitoes, so I didn't go."

"But don't worry, I'll go in and do my job well!"

"Besides, there's no need for that. It would be a waste of firewood in winter."

Another person nearby chimed in, "We're all from the same village, why should we be so particular? We cook like this at home too! Doesn't it still taste delicious?"

"Stop being so particular, can't we just wash it tomorrow?"

He Ye looked at the two black handprints on her clothes and suddenly regretted asking such a question...

"You two, go! We don't want any slovenliness here!"

The two women, who had been smiling playfully, suddenly changed their expressions. "What did you say? I've already spent all my wages for the past two days on meat, and you actually don't want me anymore? Why?"
