Divorcing your wife might feel good for a moment, but seeing me make money will make you regret it f

Zhao Da glanced at his employer's expression and saw that the employer didn't want this person to get close.

He then reached out and blocked Xu Qing's way, saying coldly, "Let's talk this out. Don't resort to violence."

He was tall and strong, and his cold face was somewhat frightening, so Shi Gandang stopped going forward.

Seeing that Xu Qing was still hiding behind others, and the workers around him were also looking at him curiously, he felt a little embarrassed.

He questioned Xu Qing, "Are you coming back with me or not? It was Mother who insisted on doing it that way. How can I, as her son, disobey her?"

Now that I've apologized, you should be calmer. Do you intend to cause a huge disturbance at home before you'll come back with me?

Xu Qing was truly impressed. If she had known this person was so shameless, she wouldn't have bothered with cement for her house's foundation; she could have just used his face.

Now that it was her territory, Xu Qing wasn't afraid of him, especially since she had a stun gun.

She was startled by the suddenness of the incident and instinctively hid behind Lao Shi and Zhao Dazhi.

She stepped out from behind the two of them, circled around Shi Gandang, and looked him up and down.

He clicked his tongue.

"You want me to go back with you? Back to the Shi family? To continue being your Shi family's daughter-in-law?"

Shi Gandang nodded hastily.

Xu Qing sneered, "Why should I? Because you're shameless? Because of your bean sprout-like physique and bland appearance? Because your father is the only one earning money to support your whole family?"

The workers tried hard to suppress their laughter, keeping their heads down as they worked, but their constantly shrugging shoulders gave off a feeling of trying too hard to hide something.

Shi Gandang felt extremely embarrassed. He was furious, but dared not act recklessly. Zhao Da and Lao Shi stood behind Xu Qing, watching him warily.

Ding Guihua stepped forward and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, look at what you're saying. There's no such thing as a family feud that lasts overnight. Now that you've laid the foundation for your house, you need to build the foundation stones."

"Our father worked as a stonemason his whole life. He heard you were repairing the house and was very worried about you. He specially sent my second brother to pick you up so he would have a reason to help you."

Shi Gandang instantly regained his confidence and straightened his back. Yes, his father was a stonemason.

Xu Qing finally understood that this person insisted on her returning to the Shi family because he saw that she was now rich.

Xu Qing took out a silver ingot from his pocket, held it in his hand and shook it; it was the reward from the county magistrate.

He said disdainfully, "Ding Guihua, I'll say it one last time, I'm not your sister-in-law. If you still can't remember, I'll slap you every time I call you that."

"Look, what is this?" Xu Qing covered his mouth and said with feigned annoyance, "I forgot, you don't know yet, this is a reward from the county magistrate. With this money, what kind of craftsman can't I hire? No matter how good the craftsmanship of your Shi family is, I don't want to use your people, I think they're dirty."

Shi Gandang and Ding Guihua had been staring at the silver ever since Xu Qing took it out; they had never seen such a white silver ingot in their entire lives.

Hearing Xu Qing's words, his heart sank to the bottom. Xu Qing would not come back, and her money, house, and oxcart had nothing to do with them anymore.

Shi Gandang suddenly felt a pang of regret. If he hadn't listened to his mother back then, all of this would be his now.

Clinging to his last shred of hope, he asked, "I am Xiaocao's father. She must want her parents to be by her side, loving and caring for her. For the sake of the child, please come back, okay?"

If you really don't want to go back to the Shi family, I can separate from them and we can live separately, okay?

Ding Guihua stared at Shi Gandang in astonishment. If he separated his things, wouldn't she be unable to use Xu Qing's things anymore?

"No, second brother, with our parents still alive, we can't separate the family. Do you want to be an unfilial and disrespectful person? Our parents will not agree to that."

Shi Gandang was determined. As long as he could get the big house, the silver ingots, and the oxcart, what was wrong with dividing the family property?

He looked at Xu Qing firmly: "As long as you come back, I will listen to you and make you happy."

Xu Qing was already feeling disgusted. These people were constantly arguing over money, which was annoying.

Since they're not leaving on their own, let her see them off.

She took the stun gun out of the shopping cart: "I think I've made myself clear. I have nothing to do with the Shi family anymore."

I'm giving you one last chance to leave on your own. Otherwise, I'll have to ask my deceased father to send you off.

My father just appeared in my dream the other day. He's a manager in the underworld, and the God of Thunder and the Goddess of Lightning are his friends. He'll be more than capable of dealing with you two.

It was broad daylight, but Xu Qing's gloomy expression, coupled with her words, sent a chill down one's spine for no apparent reason.

Shi Gandang recalled the time he inexplicably fainted and was injured, and the tingling sensation in his body. Could it be that Xu Qing's father was punishing him that time?

He felt a growing urge to retreat and slowly stepped back.

Ding Guihua laughed and said, "If you're going to scare someone, at least come up with a believable excuse. This is too fake."

Xu Qing stopped speaking, closed her eyes, and made hand gestures to form an array, constantly changing them. Her hand speed was extremely fast, creating afterimages in the air, while she chanted incantations.

He swung his right hand out suddenly, pointing it directly at Ding Guihua. The instant he touched her, he pressed the switch on the stun gun from his sleeve.

Ding Guihua foamed at the mouth, convulsed, and collapsed to the ground.

Shi Gandang's eyes widened in horror. It was true! He'd experienced the same thing last time! How terrifying!

He ignored Ding Guihua and fled in a panic.

Xu Qing put the stun gun back into the shopping cart, slowly straightened up, exhaled, and looked around at the villagers who were watching the commotion.

The villager who had given directions to Shi Gandang waved his hands in terror, saying, "I didn't mean to, don't come looking for me, I was wrong, I'll never do it again."

They ran away in a panic, and the other onlookers didn't dare to stay any longer, shrinking back and leaving quietly.

Xu Qing was unaware of the reason behind it, simply assuming that the ancients revered ghosts and gods.

The workers held Xu Qing in even greater awe and worked even harder, daring not to slack off in the slightest.

Xu Qing kicked Ding Guihua, but there was still no reaction. She told Zhao Da to just throw Ding Guihua under a big tree nearby and ignore her, and continue with the construction.

Shi Gandang ran back to the Shi family home in one breath and hid in his room, afraid to come out. He always felt that Xu Qing's father was waiting for him outside.

Ding Guihua didn't wake up until evening. It was pitch black and quiet all around, not even the chirping of insects. She thought of Xu Qing's words during the day and the faint numbness in her body.

Fear gripped her, and she limped home.

I'll never come here again, it's too scary, Xu Qing is not a normal person!

……

After a busy day, the Xu family gathered in the courtyard, eating and talking about what had happened that day.

The one-armed beggar excitedly reported that he and Xu Zhenzhen had sold 350 roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) today, and after deducting the share that should go to Xu Qing, they still had 735 wen left.

He then gave Xu Qing another 200 coins, saying it was for his lodging and food expenses.

With the remaining money, some was used to buy food, and the children in the abandoned Taoist temple finally had a full meal.

Xu Jian and Xu Gong had collected a large basket of jade on the mountain today, and all the jade had been collected. They asked Xu Qing worriedly what to do if there was no more jade.

However, there was good news: they found suitable timber for the roof beams and pillars.

We'll go chop it down and carry it down the mountain tomorrow.

We were able to find this timber thanks to the villagers who were digging for konjac in the mountains.

Ever since people learned that konjac is edible, they have been searching for and digging for konjac all over the mountains and fields.

People searching for konjac have explored many hidden corners and nooks that they had never been to before.

After learning that Xu Jian and his group were looking for timber, everyone kindly gave them directions.

Xu Qing pondered what other plants could replace Aiyu, and didn't reply for a moment.

Ms. Wen looked at her daughter with concern. On their way back, many people in the village ran far away when they saw them.

They were completely baffled. It wasn't until Aunt Zhao told them what had happened during the day that they understood.

But after talking for so long, the daughter didn't seem to have any intention of telling them anything.

Why don't you confide in them when you've been wronged?
