Crossing the Splendid Farmhouse

Chapter 48
"What's going on here? Mrs. Wu, I just heard people say that you hired these villagers from other villages to harvest rice for Tang Kun's family? But, did the rice go to the wrong place? Tang Kun's family's Shaguping It doesn't seem to be there..."

Xiao Lizheng had someone stop the two villagers from other villages who were in charge of transporting the goods, and then he stared at Mrs. Wu with a half-smile and said.He was so annoyed that he didn't even call out "Aunt Wu" to the Wu family.

And when Wu Shi heard Xiao Lizheng's cold "Wu Shi", he felt as if someone had suddenly poured a basin of ice water in the severe winter months, and his whole body shivered.

"Back...back to Xiao Lizheng, this...these villagers of Li Village are...indeed I hired them to harvest grain for...for myself. Xiao...Xiao Lizheng, these paddy fields are the ancestral property of our old...Old Tang family... "

Facing Xiao Lizheng with a stern face and a dignified face, Wu's arrogant and unreasonable momentum was suddenly suffocated, and even his voice began to become guilty involuntarily.

She dare not forget that behind Xiao Lizheng is the Yamen.

If she is also arrogant and unreasonable in front of Xiao Lizheng, Xiao Lizheng has the right to hand her over to the Yamen directly...

"Well, this is indeed the ancestral property of the old Tang family. But Ben Lizheng seems to remember that when your old Tang family separated the paddy field of almost three acres, it was distributed to Tang Kun's family, the second son of Tang. Over the years Tang Kun's family has indeed taken care of these paddy fields well..."

Xiao Lizheng was looking at the golden yellow rice, and nodded affirmatively.

"Master Lizheng has a good memory. But Master Lizheng, the second child's family has severed the mother-child relationship with me, so...so, I...I just hired someone to fight rice, didn't I..."

Wu said with an apologetic smile on his face.

"Wu Shi, Ben Lizheng suspects that you deliberately planned to drive Tang Kun's family out of the old Tang's house because you were greedy for the rice in Tang Kun's three-acre paddy field and wanted to keep all the rice for yourself. Come here, Benli is tying up this vicious woman named Wu, and Benli is about to personally escort her to the county seat and put her in prison..."

Xiao Lizheng waved his hand, and suddenly several strong villagers came out from behind Xiao Lizheng holding ropes.

These villagers are all hooligans in the village, but they were "recruited" by Xiao Lizheng. When they are free, they go out to collect "protection money" or something, and Xiao Lizheng will ask them to help if there is something wrong.

They and Xiao Li are in a mutually beneficial relationship.

As long as they don't make too much fuss about collecting protection fees and don't kill people, Xiao Lizheng can settle it for them.

"Xiao Lizheng, I was wrong just now. I invited the villagers of Li Village for Tang Kun's family. The only ones in their family who can really do things are their husband and wife, and the children are still young, so they can't help much. , I... I feel sorry for them so I help them hire people to harvest..."

Seeing those hooligans approaching fiercely with thick ropes, Mrs. Wu finally broke down and shouted loudly.

No matter how arrogant and unreasonable she is, she is still arrogant in the room, and she is used to bullying the weak and fearing the hard. She has never seen such a battle like this.Mr. Tang opened his mouth to say something, but was pulled tightly by Tang Lier who came to him at some point and stood next to him.

"Grandpa Tang, in fact, it's not that you can't help Grandma Wu, you just want to save face. In fact, you also want to take the rice from our family as your own, right?"

Although Tang Lier's eyes were clear, there was a bit of indifference that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.

Under her stare, Mr. Tang suddenly felt that his darkest thoughts were exposed to the sun, and he felt a kind of embarrassment that he couldn't hide from.

In fact, in his heart, he didn't love Tang Kun as much as he showed?In fact, in his heart, he didn't have no resentment towards Tang Kun, did he?

"So that's the case. Aunt Wu really has a heart. Since Aunt Wu said so, then these rice..."

Xiao Lizheng was quite satisfied with Wu's sense of taste.

He took another look at Tang Lier, who was standing closely next to Mr. Tang, but in fact he was holding on to Mr. Tang, preventing him from "making trouble" and affecting his handling of the Wu family. He decided to sell it again. This little girl is a favor.

So he reminded again.

"The rice is naturally sent to the sun-drying flat of the new house. I... how could I covet their rice... paddy..."

Wu's heart was bleeding, but he had to pretend to be generous.

She is not stupid, knowing that Xiao Lizheng's choice has already given her a step down.No matter how aggressive, powerful, and unreasonable she is, she also knows that the yamen is easy to get in and hard to get out of, so she doesn't dare to defy the law...

"Okay, Aunt Wu is indeed a kind and loving elder. Tang Kun, Aunt Wu is so kind to you, do you know that you should honor the rice for Aunt Wu this year? And these hired helpers, your family also Take half of the salary, don't let Aunt Wu bear it all by herself. Tang Kun, do you remember?"

Xiao Li was sweeping his eyes to Tang Kun and Zhao Shi, who were obviously stunned and didn't know what happened, and sighed secretly in his heart.

It's no wonder that Mrs. Wu doesn't like the two of them, they are too simple and honest...

If it wasn't for them to come up with good bamboo shoots, his children would be as clever as each other, and he really didn't want to do it for him.

Just as Mr. Tang was thinking carefully about the deep meaning in Tang Lier's words, Tang Lier quietly let go of his sleeves, ran to Tang Kun again and stood still.

Things have progressed to this point, even if Mr. Tang opens his mouth again, he won't be able to change Wu's "happy" ending...

"Father, Uncle Lizheng talked to you, why don't you hurry up and agree..."

Tang Lier pretended to be naive and shook Tang Kun's arm, but she unknowingly set a trap while speaking.

She urged Tang Kun to quickly respond to Xiao Lizheng's words and implement the happy thing that Mrs. Wu should bear half of the wages.

"Yes, I understand. Thank you Li Zheng-sama for your impartial handling..."

Tang Kun's head is still full of soy sauce. Although he heard Xiao Lizheng's words clearly, he didn't have time to think deeply.Hearing Tang Lier's words, he quickly agreed.

"Tang Kun, you heartless white-eyed wolf, my mother hired someone to do things for you with good intentions, you...you still want my mother to pay half of your wages for you, woo woo, God, why am I so miserable..."

This time, Wu couldn't bear it no matter what.

With a cry, she wanted to pounce on Tang Kun.However, under the threat of the cold eyes of Xiao Lizheng and those gangsters, she finally sat down on the ground and cried loudly.

"Mr. Tang, why don't you hurry up and take Aunt Wu back? Waiting to see her continue to embarrass herself and see how ugly your old Tang family is..."
