Chapter 162 We are short of manpower now
"But, Daniu, I heard your father tell me what happened in Xiaohe's shop yesterday. She said such things, but you still have this thought in your mind?"
"I..." He muttered for a long time without uttering a complete sentence.
Zeng Huacai added, "In fact, getting married means finding someone to live with who knows you well. You and Xiao He are unlikely to be together in this life. Does that mean you won't be able to live your life anymore?"
"Xiao He is a good girl, but she doesn't have any feelings for you. If she had any feelings for you, your father and I would have been able to save our pride and go to your uncle and tell him about it. But she doesn't have any feelings for you, and if we continue to be so stubborn, it will be even more meaningless. Don't you think so?"
After waiting for a long time, I heard Zhang Daniu say "hmm".
"What about this marriage?"
"Mom, let me make the decision. I will marry the girl from the Tian family."
After he finished speaking, he got up and went back to his room.
Zeng Hua's eyes were a little moist, but she still shouted, "Okay, mother will ask the matchmaker to send the date tomorrow morning."
The marriage between Zhang Daniu and Miss Tian was thus settled.
The happiest people were Zeng Hua and Zhang Quan.
On the other hand, Jiang Dahe and Jiang Ming were absent-minded on their way back, thinking that Chang Wei was lying to them. After all, when he and Wu Xiuhua had their wedding night, she had her blood.
Jiang Ming asked him: "You are your own wife, you know it well."
Jiang Dahe patted his chest and said, "How could I not know? When Xiuhua married me, she was already a virgin. I think Chang Wei is just trying to trick us. If we go back and there's a commotion, our family won't be at peace anymore, and we won't have time to bother that little bitch Jiang Xiaohe."
Jiang Ming also nodded in agreement. If Jiang Dahe could confirm Wu Xiuhua's innocence, then Chang Wei was lying.
Just when he was about to remind Jiang Dahaha not to bother that little bitch during this period of time, a few people jumped out from the side of the road.
At first glance, it was dressed like a servant.
The father and son were shocked. Today was really like a day in the clouds, and their hearts were up and down.
"Brother, what are you doing? We are farmers."
The leader asked, "Who among you is Jiang Dahe?"
Jiang Dahe was stunned. What? Looking for him? He quickly hid behind Jiang Ming.
The leader immediately waved his hand and said, "Catch him and beat him up! Just don't beat him to death."
Several people rushed up, pulled Jiang Daha over and started fighting.
Jiang Ming begged for mercy: "I have never offended you, brother. We apologize to you. Please let my son go. If you continue to fight, someone will die."
The leader saw that it was almost time, so he waved his hand and everyone threw Jiang Dahai away. He was seen lying on the ground, and when he raised his face, he looked hurt, and couldn't figure out when he had offended these people.
The leader grabbed his hair and said, "How dare you snatch a woman from our master? Don't you consider your own worth?"
Jiang Dahe's eyes widened, his eye circles were red, and blood was flowing from the corners of his mouth: "I didn't provoke anyone."
The leader sneered: "Your wife's name is Wu Xiuhua, right?"
Jiang Ming and Jiang Dahe were both silent.
I told you, "That's our master's mistress outside! She was pregnant with our master's child, but because our master was dealing with some household affairs, the pregnancy was delayed. If not, your wife would have become our master's aunt. And you'd better treat our young master well when you go back, because my master will go to pick up his youngest son and bring him home in a few days!"
After saying that, he left with his brothers.
Jiang Dahai was so angry that he knocked the ground a few times with his hands. Jiang Ming helped him up. He didn't say anything, but limped towards home with a face full of anger, as if he wanted to kill someone. Jiang Ming hurriedly caught up with him and told him not to act on impulse, but Jiang Dahai wouldn't listen. He only knew that he was cuckolded, and it had been since the day he got married!
When Manager Chang, who was in the dark, saw this, he turned around and went to report to Chang Wei.
The days passed quickly. Wild vegetables had grown on the ridges of the fields. The fields were full of farmers working. The adults were working in the fields and the children were playing beside the ridges. This was the scene that Jiang Xiaohe saw when she opened the door. It was like a moving scroll.
The shop has finally been prepared, the furniture has been put in place, and the blacksmith's pots have all been made. Today we are just waiting for Wang Dayi and his family to arrive. Then we will call Zeng Hua and the others over, and Jiang Xiaohe will give them some training before they can officially start work.
Zhang Fu came back from the mountain carrying firewood. It was the beginning of spring, and in addition to the work in the fields, many people went up the mountain to collect firewood. If they could sell it in the town, it would be a good profit.
Because the family is in the food business, and since it is a food business, it naturally requires more firewood, so Zhang Fu has been busy collecting firewood these days, thinking that his family can collect more and buy less when the time comes. But in fact, Jiang Xiaohe really wants to say that the shop does not need much firewood, and they will have to buy charcoal when the time comes.
In the evening, Wang Dayi's family arrived, and the two old people also came. Now Wang Dayi and his family had to help Jiang Xiaohe's home, and they were worried about leaving the two old people at home, so they simply brought them along.
"Have you arranged the work at home and in the fields?"
Wang Dayi nodded: "Don't worry, brother-in-law, everything has been arranged. We gave some food to our neighbors next door and asked them to help plant it."
Zhang Fu nodded and said, that's fine, as long as their family's affairs don't delay their grain harvest at the end of the year.
The house became lively now, and the happiest person was Zhang Chuan, who asked to be hugged by this person and then by that person.
The villagers looked at Wang Qiuxia's family and said in confusion, "The Zhang family has so much money that they don't know where to spend it. They keep calling the Wang family's relatives here all day long. They're not going to go broke!"
At this time, Li Cuihong, who lived next door to Zeng Hua's house, said, "You know nothing. Jiang Xiaohe has just opened a shop in town and is short of staff."
What?
"Jiang Xiaohe bought a shop in town?"
Li Cuihong nodded: "You guys have no sense of judgment, and you still have the nerve to criticize them here. I think their family is going to be very successful, and they will not be on the same level as us in the future."
Everyone was silent. They all felt very aggrieved. It was obvious that the Zhang family's situation had been getting worse day by day since Zhang Dashan left, but now it has suddenly changed. Before, everyone sympathized with this family, but now everyone envied them.
"Now that she has opened a shop, does she need manpower? Why don't we go and give it a try?" said a woman.
Li Cuihong glanced at her unhappily and said, "Why did they invite Wang Qiuxia's family? In addition to Zhang Quan's family, what about you?"
The person who had just spoken suddenly stopped talking.
Li Cuihong was pushed again: "Aren't you on good terms with Zeng Hua? Why? They opened a shop and didn't ask you to help?"
Li Cuihong rolled her eyes: "Go away, stop talking about this. My husband has been helping Jiang Xiaohe repair the shop with Zhang Quan for the past two months and has made some money. I am not jealous..."
After saying that, he stood up holding the sole of his shoe and said, "Let's go home and cook."
As soon as she left, everyone said a few sarcastically, "Why are you so arrogant? Humph." Then everyone dispersed.
