Chapter 416 Follow-up
Nanzhi is not afraid that Hexiang will reveal the jam recipe.
When I first bought them back, I had already signed the deed.
The prescription is not allowed to be passed on outside within three years, and even if you redeem it, you must wait three years, otherwise the person who breaks the contract will pay a penalty of one hundred taels.
She still keeps the deed.
One hundred taels is the average income of a family of three for five years. Other large households in Yancheng will not value this jam recipe, and small households will not be willing to risk one hundred taels of silver.
After all, although the ice drink shop makes money, it can only sell it for three months in a year.
Qian Er was slapped twenty times on the charge of provoking quarrels and provoking trouble, and was imprisoned for another seven days before being released.
When she heard the news, Nanzhi was chatting with Miss Zeng in the women's building.
"My boss, Hexiang came back yesterday..." Linglong bent down and whispered in Nanzhi's ear.
"What did she say?"
Nanzhi smiled and handed Miss Zeng a piece of cake, and then asked nonchalantly.
Linglong's beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, and she thought for a while before continuing in a low voice: "She is here to borrow money. Yes, she said Qian Er was broken and she has to use the money to see a doctor."
Linglong's little face turned red when she said this. They were originally curious about what happened, but Hexiang just said a few words, and then she whimpered and said that Qian Er was beaten, and where it was...
It's hard to talk about this matter, not to mention that Miss Zeng is still here today.
"Did you borrow it?"
Nanzhi raised his eyebrows, a little curious.
When He Xiang made the fuss, she said bluntly that she did not want to continue to be an inferior slave here.
Having said this, if these little girls are still soft-hearted and borrow money to go out, then she really has nothing to say.
"No, she already said that before. We are not made of tofu, and no one will lend her money.
When she left, she was still crying. "
Linglong was also angry.
They are about the same age, and they all live in the same house. Although they are not sisters, they used to have a good relationship.
In the end, Hexiang actually said those words, and she was really not afraid of hurting their hearts.
If she hadn't said these words at the beginning, how could they have given her some out of past friendship.
"The path she chose is the only one she will suffer."
Nanzhi said lightly.
Qian's family lived in a rotten tiled house on the south side of the city, separated by two small rooms.
There was only one elder in the family, his father. Qian Er was in jail and He Xiang had nowhere to go, so naturally he had no choice but to go to that shabby house.
What kind of life these days have been like, you can know without even thinking about it.
Although she took these few months' wages with her when she left, it was strange to have money left in her hands when she met such a father-in-law.
Since Hexiang doesn't want to stay here, let her live the "good life" she wants.
This incident caused an uproar in Yancheng. Some people privately said that Nanzhi, as the wife of the city lord, deliberately made things difficult for Qian Er and Hexiang. For a time, even the two shops of the Lin family were surrounded by people who wanted to take a look. Lively people.
Chen Qiulan only thought those women with long tongues were annoying, but Mother Lin didn't feel anything at all.
I only sent my eldest daughter-in-law to rest.
"Why are you angry? They come here all day, and they eat more or less. It's us who make money, so don't ruin your body with anger."
Mother Lin patted Chen Qiulan's shoulder comfortingly.
"Yes, sister-in-law, don't pay attention to those people, just think they are bringing us money." Sun Cui's belly was already a little swollen, and she was sitting aside to help peel garlic.
In the first two months, the baby in her belly was always bothering her, making her unable to eat or sleep, but now she is peaceful.
And she also discovered that the little baby in her belly probably liked silver.
One night, her stomach felt so bad that she couldn't even use the sour plums. Her husband came back just in time, and as soon as he took out the silver hairpin he bought for her, the little baby stopped.
Once or twice, they didn't take it seriously.
Until one time when she was suffering from vomiting, she happened to meet her mother-in-law bringing some silver. As soon as she took the ingot of silver, her stomach immediately felt better.
Only after this test did I realize that I was carrying a little money addict in my belly.
Now she comes to the store every day to help out, either washing vegetables or rolling out noodles. As long as she thinks about making money, the baby in her belly becomes very quiet, and her own mood is getting better day by day.
"What you said is true." Chen Qiulan was stunned for a moment. After thinking about it carefully, the business in the shop has really been better these days.
"So, don't be too anxious about anything. Good things and bad things always come one after the other."
Mother Lin brought bowls of noodles to each of her two daughters-in-law, and then sat down.
"Auntie, aren't you worried about Fatty?" Chen Qiulan took a sip of soup before speaking hesitantly.
After all, my sister-in-law has now become the wife of the city lord, and it is always bad for outsiders to say too much.
"Fat Ya is smart, don't worry about her." Mother Lin didn't pay much attention and just put a fried egg into the bowls of the two daughters-in-law.
The pressure on the men's side of the Lin family is even lower.
The temper of the Lin family man cannot be said to be good or bad, but his tall and strong figure is the most direct judgment.
Someone with good intentions wanted to chat in their shop, but he shut up when he saw the two shirtless brothers sawing wood.
He was afraid that if he said one more word, he would become the wooden piles on the ground.
On the third day after Qian Er came out, the rumor trend changed.
From the city lord's wife making things difficult for her own girl, she turned into a second-rate thug who stole and abducted ignorant girls.
When Hexiang came out, she had five taels of silver in her pocket.
This was the wages and rewards Nanzhi gave her when she was in the small yard.
As a result, as soon as she arrived at Qian's house, Old Man Qian asked her for a tael of silver.
She originally thought about marrying a chicken and a dog, but she could only accept it when she met such a father-in-law. However, on the second day, the old man came to her again and asked for money.
He Xiang was naturally unwilling to give it. Who would have thought that the old man would point his nose at her and call her a cheap girl? Since she became his son's concubine, she should give up all the money.
Hearing him say this, the lotus fragrance naturally refused to dry up.
But after calming down and thinking about it, she finally understood.
She had to take the deed of betrayal to the county government office to register for deregistration, and then she could become a good citizen.
As long as she doesn't register for a day, she will still be an inferior maid and slave.
In order to get rid of Old Man Qian's entanglement, Hexiang could only give him another one tael of silver to send him off, and then went to the county government office all day long to wait for Qian Er to come out.
The wait lasted for seven days. When Qian Er came out, he was already so thin that he looked naked, and his face was even more slutty. If he hadn't been able to shout "ouch, ouch, ouch" twice, people would have thought he was a mummy.
