As soon as Zhu Yue'e said this, Gu Ye had no way to hide and could only come out.

When Old Lady Wang heard what Zhu Yue'e said, she didn't think much about it and saw the fourth brother coming over.

I glared at him. Without asking any questions, I knew who leaked the price.

Old Mrs. Wang was so regretful!

If she had known that no matter how much the fourth son said, she would not let the second son's family speak.

I don’t make much money now, but things keep coming one after another, and there is no time to rest.

She felt uncomfortable and exploded instantly when she looked at the villagers.

"Why are we, the Gu family, so dishonest? Why are we bullying you? When we were doing the work, the price was clearly stated, and you only accepted it after you agreed. Now the price is different, and there's no point in making a fuss. Doesn't it take time and energy for my fourth child to go out and find a factory or take a job? Now, because someone said a few words behind your back, you come to make a fuss. Who would dare to hire you for work in the future?"

What Old Lady Wang said made sense and had a basis in reason.

Some sensible people also think this is true, but some people who like to take advantage of small profits will not do it.

"The Gu family didn't do anything, just shipped the goods. Why should they keep half of the money?"

Old Lady Wang stood in front of the man with her hands on her hips.

"Based on the work he found, if you want to find work, no matter how much you want to swindle, that's up to you, and I'll do it for you."

After a burst of outbursts from Old Lady Wang, the villagers fell silent.

Seeing that everyone was not as excited as before, Gu Ye stood up appropriately, with a smile on his face, and spoke politely and reasonably.

"Aunts and uncles, it really makes me sad that you all question me after hearing a few nonsense words. I was thinking that good things would come to you in the future, but now it seems... Alas!"

This "Hey!"

That would be a very serious matter. The villagers looked at each other and some of them kept quiet. The grain harvest was almost over, and there would be no work to do for two or three months from winter to spring.

I can't just sit there doing nothing. If Gu Laosi can really find some work to do, it will help supplement the family income.

Even if the price is cheaper, it doesn’t matter. It’s better than having nothing to do.

The more the shouting people listened to Gu Laosi's words, the more they felt that this was true. However, one of them did not dare to do it anymore. He had taken a dollar from Jiang Le to cause trouble. If he failed to make trouble, he would have to return the dollar.

"You just use sweet words to trick people into working for you. You just want to take advantage of them."

Gu Ye felt a headache coming on his scalp as he looked at the man, his eyes rolling around.

"Uncle, you're right. Since you think our fourth son is dishonest and has taken advantage of you, if he finds a job in the future, just don't take it. We'll go find someone from other villages. I think they should be willing to take it."

Susan stood up and spoke clearly and concisely in her voice.

Susan was not trying to help Gu Laosi or Old Lady Wang, she just didn't want Jiang Le's plan to succeed.

When Gu Ye heard what his second sister-in-law said, he nodded excitedly. His second sister-in-law was right.

"Yes, in the future I will look for people from other villages and take advantage of them."

This sentence made the villagers panic. Good things must be given to the people in their own village, and people from other villages must not be allowed to take advantage.

"Gu Lao Si, don't listen to Uncle Jiang San. The villagers are no match for our own people. We don't think we're taking advantage of you, so we'll come back to you in the future. If Uncle Jiang San feels he's being taken advantage of, just don't come back to him in the future."

Uncle Jiang was pushed out just like that.

He was dumbfounded.

No, that’s not what he meant. He wanted to explain, but Gu Ye nodded in agreement.

Uncle Jiang, just by hearing the word Jiang, you know what's going on. Gu Ye was so angry!

But it still doesn't show on his face.

"Uncle Jiang, how about I pay you back for what you did, and I won't take advantage of you in the future."

When Uncle Jiang heard the first half of the sentence, he was happy, but when he heard the second half, he was dumbfounded.

If you pay again, it will only cost fifty or sixty cents more.

He can't lose the big picture for the sake of small gains, he has a good brain!

"Forget it, forget it, hahaha, Gu Laosi, I was just joking, seriously."

Gu Laosi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the matter was resolved.

After sending the villagers away, Old Lady Wang started scolding them.

"The Jiang family is such a piece of shit, bah!"

Zhu Yue'e was holding back a smile in her heart.

"Mom, you can't say that. If someone hears it, the marriage between the two families will be canceled. What will all your efforts over the years be worth?"

These words made Old Lady Wang feel hot inside. Thinking of the big rooster and the meat she had eaten, the more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt.

"Shut up. No one thinks you're dumb if you can't speak."

If Zhu Yue'e had heard this before, she would have been scared to death, but now she was slowly being infiltrated by the second brother's family.

She felt that this touched her mother-in-law's heart.

This feeling is so comfortable. It turns out that this is what it feels like to be comfortable while others are uncomfortable.

Gu Ye was also holding his breath, and he turned around to look at Susan.

"Second sister-in-law, thank you for this time."

Susan raised her eyebrows. She didn't do that to hear him say thank you, she just wanted to make Jiang Le feel uncomfortable.

"I didn't do anything. You and Jiang Le should resolve this matter privately. Don't harbor any resentment."

After Susan finished speaking, she turned and left, and Gu Ye frowned.

I was planning to ask Jiang Le what she wanted to do.

Jiang Le has been waiting for good news at Uncle Jiang's house.

She can't get the money, and Gu Ye can't get it either.

She had planned everything out, but she didn't expect that Uncle Jiang would come back and return her fifty cents.

"Niece, I went there, but I couldn't get anything done. The Gu family is too cunning. I'll refund you fifty cents, and the rest is my hard-earned money."

Jiang Le gritted his teeth in hatred, held the fifty cents in his hand, and left Uncle Jiang's house with a gloomy face.

Not long after I came out, I met Gu Ye.

When Jiang Le saw Gu Ye, he felt guilty for a moment, forced a smile on his face, and walked over.

"Fourth brother, what a coincidence!"

Gu Ye stared at her.

"Unfortunately, I came here specifically to look for you."

Jiang Le wanted to just brush it off, but Gu Ye made it clear and she couldn't say anything.

"Is there something wrong, Fourth Brother?"

"Do you understand what I'm saying?"

When Jiang Le heard this, his eyes turned red.

"Fourth brother, did you misunderstand me? I went to talk to Third Uncle just now, and he went to find you. I was angry too, and I told him not to mess around."

Gu Ye stared at Jiang Le intently, wondering why he hadn't noticed before that Jiang Le was lying.

Could it be that there were no conflicts of interest between the two of them before?

"Really? It seems I misunderstood you."

Jiang Le could hear the sarcasm in Gu Ye's words, but she didn't acknowledge it.

"Fourth brother, after all these years of our relationship, don't you trust me?"

Gu Ye opened his mouth, but it was hard to say that he trusted her.

"Jiang Le, do you really want to marry me and do it for my own good?"

Gu Ye didn't want to listen to Jiang Le's nonsense anymore, so he asked what he wanted to ask most.

Jiang Le was stunned for a moment, tears streaming down his face.

"Fourth brother, you...you can question other things about me, but you can't question my feelings for you. You saying that...I feel sad."
