The evil sister-in-law dressed as a yandere boss

Chapter 44
Tao Zhen concentrated on picking up the branches, thinking in his mind that he would make pickled fish for Pei Zhan in the evening, then go to the city to sell the fish tomorrow, and stop by the Zhou Mansion to see Mrs. Pei and Xiao Heng.

Tao Zhen quickly picked up the firewood with nimble hands and feet. She relaxed her muscles and bones and waited for a while before Pei Zhan came.

Pei Zhan looked at the disgraced Tao Zhen, feeling relieved after a day of depression. He walked over, looked at the bucket, and smiled: "How many?"

Tao Zhen looked at the whole river. The river was only this big in total, and he didn't know how many fish there were.

As if he could see her worry, Pei Zhan said: "Whatever you can get is as much as you can, and we will figure out a way later."

"What's wrong with his face?" Tao Zhen noticed that his face was red.

"Abraded."

Tao Zhen frowned, a little unhappy. How could such a beautiful face be bruised?
"Let's go." Pei Zhan carried the fish bucket, and Tao Zhen carried the picked branches on his back, and they walked away together.

Huo Xing looked at the backs of the two of them with dark eyes. The two seemed to be a perfect match, and the feeling between them was very unlike that of uncle and sister-in-law...

With this thought, there was a knock on the door, and a somewhat wretched man walked in, nodding and bowing to greet Huo Xing.

Huo Xing asked impatiently: "What's the matter?"

Zhang Guidao: "Sir, it's about procurement."

Huo Xing said coldly: "You want to ask me about such a trivial matter?"

Zhang Gui rubbed his hands and said, "I didn't want to trouble you, sir, but..."

He paused and said, "Li Ming has always been in charge of this matter. As you know, Li Ming's son and mother-in-law are at the quarry. Some workers said that they paid the money, but the food was not very good. ah."

Huo Xing frowned slightly. He didn't want to care about these messy little things. He also ate the food from the quarry. The taste was a bit bad, but the portion was very large. There was no situation like what Zhang Gui said, even if it was. Nothing serious.

Huo Xing didn't speak, and Zhang Gui was a little uneasy. After waiting for a while, Huo Xing suddenly said: "The Zhang Li who escaped before was your nephew, right?" Zhang Gui broke into a cold sweat and nodded: "Yes... but he stole money." The matter has nothing to do with me, sir, if I had known that he would do such a thing, I don’t think I would have let him come over.”

Huo Xing didn't ask anything, just said: "Is there anything else?"

Zhang Gui glanced at Huo Xing secretly and said bravely: "My lord has a hard time coming and going every day. I have prepared some food and drinks. I wonder if your lord has time..."

Huo Xing was really annoyed this time and waved his hand: "No need, get out."

Zhang Gui also saw that Huo Xing was in a bad mood, so he withdrew. Now that the quarry had finished work, the sky was getting dark, and the people in the quarry had almost left. Zhang Gui met Liu when he went out. , Mrs. Liu said anxiously: "How's it going?"

Zhang Gui sneered: "You can't get enough oil and salt."

Mrs. Liu frowned: "What should I do? Have you mentioned me to him?"

Zhang Gui shook his head. He was kicked out before he even mentioned it.

Mrs. Liu was a little angry and blamed: "At such a young age, I don't believe that he doesn't want women. Why don't you mention me?"

Zhang Gui was frightened to death by Huo Xing's appearance just now. How could he dare to mention it? However, he also felt that Mrs. Liu was right. He was so full of blood that he didn't believe that Huo Xing didn't want to. He looked at Mrs. Liu, and Mrs. Liu was considered Peugeot, but unfortunately she is a bit old and not clean. Huo Xing will definitely not like her.

Zhang Gui also knew what Liu had in mind. She just wanted to see Huo Xing as powerful and good-looking, so that if she could become the deputy director of the Inspection Department, she might be able to get rid of her current status and gain freedom.

Freedom is what Liu longs for most right now. She doesn't want to die in this exile village for the rest of her life.

For this reason, she accompanied Zhang Gui several times without any money, and Zhang Gui reluctantly agreed to try to match her.
