After hearing the attitude of their father-in-law, Zhao Laoer and his wife felt hopeful again. However, Sun Shi was not so happy. She cried and complained to Zhao Lizheng.

She also scolded Zhao Laoer and his wife for not caring about their parents and nephew, and for being cruel and vicious. She made Wu and Zhao Laoer feel so chilled that they became numb.

Finally, it was Zhao Xuancheng who heard the noise and came out. After hearing what had happened, he actually agreed with his grandfather's approach and raised his hand in approval for his second uncle to go to work for the Xiao family.

This is a rare opportunity. My second uncle's family has paid a lot for my studies. All I can do is to give my little cousin some enlightenment and teaching, but I am powerless to do anything else.

With the Xiao family and Xiao Wan's ability, if my second uncle follows her, he will definitely make a career.

Zhao Xuancheng felt inexplicably uncomfortable. With his current abilities, he was no match for Xiao Wan, not to mention the presence of Zhao Mingyuan.

Just by looking at his personality, one could tell that he was not an ordinary person. Zhao Xuancheng recalled that once when he came home late, he saw the woman and the man standing opposite each other in the moonlight, like a couple of gods.

I feel very sad, but I can only work hard and hope that one day I will have the opportunity to fight for myself.

After Zhao Xuancheng expressed his opinion, he went over and patiently calmed his grandmother. He knew that his grandmother loved him, but his second uncle also had his own life to live.

He couldn't blame his elders, but he patiently comforted his grandmother over and over again. With the comfort of her eldest grandson, Mrs. Sun slowly calmed down.

I don't know how Zhao Xuancheng persuaded her in the end, but Sun agreed reluctantly. However, she asked Wu to promise not to be lazy about housework when she was not at work.

Mrs. Wu cried with joy and agreed immediately. The couple loved Zhao Xuancheng even more. Their eldest nephew was not a cold-blooded person. He would care about his uncle and younger brother. Mrs. Wu must have loved her eldest nephew even more.

Yao wanted to make a fuss, but Zhao Lizheng said that her sister's affairs had brought shame to the family, which silenced Yao's anger. She could only watch her brother-in-law and sister-in-law go to work happily.

After Zhao Lizheng finished dealing with his family affairs, he quickly took Zhao Laoer to Wang Ergou's house.

On the way, he and Zhao Laoer talked about the Xiao family's expansion of the workshop and the expansion of sales scale. He learned the four words "sales scale" from Wan Yatou.

Zhao Laoer was stunned when he heard this. Even though he had been to school, he still didn't understand what sales scale meant.

Zhao Lizheng was now very confident and explained to his son proudly, "Stupid boy, you don't even understand the sales scale. It's just...it's just, what did Wan girl say..."

"Oh, right. We're going to sell our potato noodles outside of Jiyun City, so more people know about this food. Miss Wan also mentioned selling sweet potato vermicelli, and we need people to sell it outside."

"That's what I mean, you understand." Zhao Lizheng racked his brains to explain to his son.

Zhao Laoer understood almost everything. He secretly laughed at the way his father lectured him, but he didn't dare show it, for fear that his father would get angry and lose face.

However, he quickly calmed down and followed his father to Wang Ergou's house to communicate with great enthusiasm.

When they arrived at Wang Ergou's house, they saw the fence gate was half open. Wang Ergou's eldest daughter Lanxiang was chopping firewood in the yard. Wang Ergou's wife Qi was sitting on a bench in the shade of the yard, eating pumpkin seeds and directing her daughter to work.

Lanxiang was wearing patched clothes that were too tight for her money. She was so thin that her bones were visible, and she was chopping wood while sweating profusely.

Qi was dressed fairly neatly, but she glared at people with her triangular eyes, looking very arrogant and not a good person. She didn't know where her youngest son Tiedan had gone to play.

Zhao Lizheng and his son looked at the frail Lanxiang and Qi and sighed unconsciously.

The father and son looked at each other, knowing that today's conversation might not go smoothly.

"Cough cough," Zhao Lizheng coughed at the door to let people in the yard notice his arrival.

When Qi's mother and daughter heard the sound, they looked up and saw Zhao Lizheng and his son pushing open the gate and coming in. However, in order to avoid suspicion, the father and son did not enter the yard.

When Qi saw the head of the village, she immediately stood up, brushed off the fallen melon seed shells on her body with her hands, and walked towards him with a smile on her face. The head of the village, Zhao, and his son were so frightened by her appearance that they retreated towards the gate of the courtyard.
