Reborn 99 Days Later, Becoming a Landlady and Getting into Tsinghua and Peking Universities
Chapter 45 The incident came to light
With spicy crayfish as a precedent, customers quickly embraced Liang Yili's newly launched cold noodles.
I'll buy some of everything I've tried.
For those with families, weighing by weight is the preferred method.
Young people who find it troublesome will simply ask Liang Yili to cut and mix everything for them.
It's the hottest time of the year, and many people are suffering from loss of appetite due to the summer heat.
The appearance of jelly made them very hungry.
"Pear, there's not much jelly left."
Liang Ruotao glanced at the few remaining pieces of jelly in the basin, tugged at Liang Yili's sleeve, and reminded her.
Liang Yili was stunned. She looked up at the long queue in front of the stall, as if she could see countless gold coins waving goodbye to her.
A bitter smile appeared on his lips as he called out an apology:
"Those who come later, please stop queuing. There aren't many jelly noodles left."
These words caused a stir among the group.
"Huh? I just got here, how come it's gone already?"
"Young boss, who do you think you are? Why do you always prepare so little?"
"Yeah, they have money but don't know how to make it!"
Liang Yili said with a hint of apology, "Thank you all for your support! I'm so sorry. I'll definitely prepare more tomorrow!"
When Liang Yili sold the last piece of jelly in the bowl, the persistent customer craned his neck and insisted that she show him the empty bowl.
Having witnessed that they were indeed sold out, he reluctantly instructed, "Bring more tomorrow!"
"Okay! I'm so sorry!"
Have you heard about what happened in Aojiaping?
Upon hearing this, Liang Yili, who was tidying up her things, paused in her work.
Looking up at her aunt who was speaking, Liang Yili's aunt didn't notice Liang Yili's gaze and went straight to gossiping with the woman next to her.
"Aojiaping? What's going on?"
Their conversation successfully attracted the attention of those around them, who all asked, "What's going on?"
As the center of the crowd and the focus of attention, the aunt immediately raised her head and chest, like a victorious white goose with its neck held high.
"You didn't know?"
Those around him shook their heads.
People who love to gossip enjoy the feeling of being the only one who is sober when everyone else is drunk.
Their honest demeanor instantly ignited the aunt's overwhelming urge to pour out her heart:
"A brothel madam came from Aojiaping."
"What?"
The aunt glanced around furtively, shushed, and shrank back, saying:
"I heard that a family's daughter went out to work and built a big house for her family in less than two years."
The villagers all thought she had become successful and begged her to let them take their daughters to work elsewhere.
And guess what happened?
Those around him shook their heads again.
"That girl is actually..." The aunt's face showed a look of disgust.
"What?" the person who didn't understand asked, completely bewildered.
The aunt pursed her lips: "They say it's factory work, but think about it, what kind of lucrative job only wants girls and not boys?"
Everyone suddenly realized.
"How did you know?"
“I have a relative from Aojiaping.”
I heard that the woman had just taken a dozen or so girls from the village off the train when she was caught by the hat-wielding gang.
Today, someone wearing a hat went to Aojiaping to count the number of people.
Everyone was shocked: "How did the hat-wearing woman know she was involved in that kind of business?"
"I heard they received a tip-off letter."
A young woman dressed smartly in a white shirt whispered:
Everyone's eyes lit up immediately; this person clearly had connections and knew the inside story!
He quickly asked with concern, "Was that woman really arrested? Are the other girls alright?..."
"Absolutely true. It's nothing, but you're probably quite frightened..."
Hearing this, Liang Yili slowly exhaled.
Meanwhile, Aojiaping was in complete chaos.
The only three-story red brick house in the village is now surrounded by people.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the red brick house, and golden light covered every brick and stone.
Sunlight filters through the slightly mottled brick surface, outlining a delicate texture of light and shadow, as if draping the building in a magnificent golden veil.
"Old Qian, you come out here!"
"come out!"
Qian Biao shrank back as he heard the increasingly loud shouts from outside.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
The village chief's stern voice came from outside the door: "Open the door!"
Old Man Qian took a deep drag on his cigarette, his face dark as he glanced at his mother: "Go open the door!"
"father!"
Qian Biao swallowed hard and said indignantly, "It's not like we forced their daughter to go out."
They had to beg my sister before she agreed to let them go out.
What gives you the right to block the door now?
Old Man Qian slowly exhaled a smoke ring, ignoring Qian Biao's words, and wiped his face: "Get out!"
If they want to continue living in Aojiaping, they have to give the village chief face!
Before opening the door, Old Man Qian rubbed his face hard, his usual sinister look completely gone, replaced by a bitter and helpless expression.
As soon as the door opened, before anyone could speak, he preemptively said:
"Village chief, I really don't know!"
I, Lao Qian, have lived in this village my whole life. Don't you know what kind of person I am?
Yingying has always been a very opinionated girl. If I had known about her… I definitely would have stopped her.”
The village chief thought about it and agreed.
But others don't think that way.
"Your Qian Yingying makes money by selling her body, how could you not know?"
"She sent so much money back, didn't you even ask her how she earned it?"
"That's utterly heartless!"
"I don't care! You have to pay for my Juanzi's compensation!"
Old Man Qian squatted down with a pained expression, burying his face in his hands and saying:
"I, Old Man Qian, was born in Aojiaping, and I will die a ghost of Aojiaping."
If I had known that girl was doing something so despicable, would I have let her take so many people with her?
How am I supposed to live in the village after this? How am I supposed to face you all?
Qian Biao looked at the people who had been fawning over him just a few days ago, now standing menacingly blocking the doorway.
A hint of sarcasm flashed across his face.
Almost all of these people were from families whose daughters had been taken away.
There are those who genuinely care about their children.
There are also those who are only interested in making money off their daughters and don't treat them like human beings.
After this incident, who would still be willing to come and propose marriage?
I've raised it for over ten years, I can't just let it sit unsold, can I?
They were hoping she could be like Qian Yingying and build a house for the family!
That's it, everything's ruined.
I don't know who's so nosy, writing this complaint letter.
As long as it makes money, who cares how it makes money!
After a while of commotion, everyone realized that Old Man Qian was just repeating the same few sentences over and over again and couldn't come up with a solution.
After being persuaded by the village chief, they all dispersed.
Outside the crowd, Yuan Xiangqiao watched this scene with a deathly pale face.
I was overjoyed.
The day before Qian Yingying left, Yuan's mother took Yuan Xiangqiao to the county town and locked her in the house using extremely forceful methods.
No matter how much she cried and refused to eat, they wouldn't open the door for her.
She was only given her freedom after Qian Yingying left.
But she wouldn't give up. Clutching the money she had saved, she planned to secretly go to the train station to buy a train ticket to Guangdong Province.
Yuan Xiangqiao was filled with lingering fear.
Fortunately, train tickets are hard to buy these days.
Otherwise, she might already be on the train by now.
At that point, it will truly be a situation where heaven and earth will be powerless to help you!
Inside the house, a shadow crossed Old Man Qian's eyes as he instructed his mother:
"Go to Liangjia Village tomorrow and set a date! The sooner the better!"
Mother Qian hesitated: "But... is their family still willing to marry their daughter into the family?"
"If they don't want to, then make them give back their money and belongings!"
