Chapter 264 I don’t like him
twenty:……
What is this thing muttering? It's a tiger, it doesn't understand wolf language, does it have to learn a foreign language next?
Sixteen rolled his eyes as he looked at the bewildered little white tiger. This thing is no good, it's stupid. Oh well, I'll train it slowly later. It's alright as a pet, at least it's more imposing than that monkey.
monkey:……
What did we do to deserve this? Big Wolf, that's not fair of you. You can't praise one person while putting down another.
Yunyi then looked at the village chief: "Uncle Village Chief, about this matter..."
"You handle this as you see fit," the village chief said, taking a deep breath.
"Aunt Mei," Yunyi called to Liu Mei, "settle the wages for Aunt Xiao Yu's family. From now on, we won't need their people for any of our work."
Upon hearing this, Madam Xiao panicked. Everyone knew that Yunyi's family's work was lucrative. But just as she was about to say something, she saw Xia Tianyou running over from a distance: "Tianyin's family, it's all Baozhu and her mother's fault. I apologize to you. I'll deal with them properly when I get back. You can't..."
Yunyi narrowed her eyes, but did not speak immediately.
"Apologize!" Xia Tianyou yelled at his wife and daughter.
"Mother, Second Sister!" Donkey Egg ran over, "How could you do this? How can you treat me like a human being?"
"Donkey's egg, this is an adult's matter..."
"Mother, you're still protecting her?" Donkey Egg pointed at Xia Baozhu. "She's a menace! How can you disregard Third Sister for her sake?"
"I……"
"Mother, if you continue like this, I will never take care of you in your old age or see you off in your final days. Instead, I will find a concubine for Father..."
Yunyi's lips twitched. This kid has potential; he can even come up with such a trick.
Of course, she wasn't the only one with this thought; Da Bao and Er Ya both gave Donkey Egg a thumbs up.
Ms. Xiao was frightened. The idea that her husband and son were the most important people in her life was deeply ingrained in her mind. She could favor one of her daughters, but compared to her son, her daughters were a waste of money.
Now that her husband and son both disagreed, she naturally didn't dare to be forceful and hurriedly apologized to Yunyi.
"Why are you apologizing to me? You framed Zhao Dazhuang, apologize to him."
Ms. Xiao hurriedly apologized to Zhao Dazhuang and his mother.
Although Xia Baozhu was unwilling, she had no choice but to apologize and admit that she had framed Zhao Dazhuang.
Although Zhao Dazhuang and his mother were still unwilling, they didn't dwell on it. After all, they were neighbors and people who saw each other all the time, and it would be better to make things too tense.
"Everyone says a woman's reputation is important, but a man's reputation is just as important." Yunyi glanced at everyone. "The people in my red-tiled house are all my people. I'm protective of my own. If anyone tries to play dirty tricks in the future, don't blame me for being ruthless. This is the first and last time. After all, I have money. I can hire anyone to do my job, but I don't necessarily have to hire you."
Everyone nodded in agreement. These days, everyone had benefited from following Yunyi, at least they could have a prosperous New Year. If they were no longer needed in the future, life would be tough again, and no one would want that.
“Yunyi is right,” Gao Shunfang said. “In the past, no one in our village would forget any of the special occasions. Since Yunyi started working, she hasn’t forgotten anyone. Everyone has made money and life has improved. So, if anyone tries to cause trouble like this again, don’t blame me for cursing their ancestors.”
"Anyone who misbehaves in the future will be expelled from the village and their entire clan," the village chief suddenly added. "Does anyone have any objections?"
Everyone was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, clearly having no objections.
“Since everyone has spoken, I won’t be heartless. Uncle Tianyou, I’ll still ask you for help in the future, but let’s forget about Aunt Xiao’s wife and your precious second daughter. After all, I have plenty of men in my yard, and what if…”
Xia Tianyou's face turned bright red with embarrassment: "Don't worry, it won't happen."
Ms. Xiao wanted to say something, but was glared at by the man and could only lower her head sheepishly.
"Besides, Xia Yaozong, also known as Donkey Egg, used to study and eat here, and I never bothered to calculate the cost. After all, he has a good relationship with Da Bao, and I don't need that money. But now, if he wants to continue studying here, then we'll have to follow the rules. He'll have to pay his tuition and living expenses later." Yun Yi added, "If you don't want to pay, then don't come back." After saying that, she glanced at everyone and said, "Get back to work."
The farce ended just like that.
Everyone had witnessed Yunyi's temper and became wary. After all, they were now far behind her and couldn't even feel jealous.
Xia Tianyou dragged Xiao Yushi and Xia Baozhu home. As for how to deal with the mother and daughter, that was their family matter. Xia Laidi, on the other hand, nervously pulled her younger sister back to the compound to continue working.
Yunyi saw them but didn't chase them away, and the two of them finally felt at ease.
Soon it got dark, and everyone handed in their work, took their coins, and went home.
Niu Cuier, holding her daughter's hand, asked as they walked, "Miaomiao, what do you think of Zhao Dazhuang?"
"Mother, you don't mean you want me to marry him, do you?" Xia Miaomiao frowned.
"Can't you?"
Xia Miaomiao shook her head: "Brother Zhao is good-looking and can make money, but I don't like him."
"Huh?" Niu Cuier didn't expect her daughter to refuse. "You don't like it? Then what kind do you like?"
"I..." Xia Miaomiao's face suddenly turned red when she thought of that person. "He's nothing special, I just don't want to get married." After saying that, she turned and ran away.
Niu Cui'er's heart sank. This wasn't because she didn't want to get married; it was because she had someone she liked. She hurriedly chased after him, determined to find out who he was, to avoid causing trouble later.
After running back to her room, Xia Miaomiao sighed and touched her face. There was no way she and that person could ever be together; after all, they were worlds apart.
Just then, Niu Cuier caught up, but no matter how much she questioned her, Xia Miaomiao insisted that no one was there and that she was overthinking things.
Niu Cuier could only sigh in the end and decided not to ask any more questions, but from then on she paid even closer attention to her daughter's every move.
Meanwhile, Da Zhuang's mother was complaining to Xia Songshi, "What kind of mess is this? What... what kind of deity has my Da Zhuang offended? First, Wu Cuicui almost killed us, and now this Baozhu..."
Xia Songshi could only sigh as well.
“Sister Dou,” Liu Mei disagreed, “you can’t think like that, you have to be happy.”
"Huh?" Big Zhuang's mother frowned. "That's it? What's there to be happy about?"
