The three Meng family brothers and sisters remained unmoved. Seeing these two heartless struggles, everyone felt uncomfortable.
What is this called? The wicked will be punished.
In the end, Mrs. Wan cried and brought a basin of water over. With tears streaming down her face and her body trembling, she complained while cleaning the eyes of the father and son.
"Who is the one who wants to harm us in broad daylight? Our family has already given in, and we have suffered such huge losses. What else does he want to do? He will not give up until our third house is killed and injured, and we lose both our lives and property."
"Oh my God, look at it, some people are becoming more and more lawless. If someone really loses their life, they can't even afford to pay a hundred taels."
With a bang, the people in the second room closed the courtyard door. You can cry all you want, they are too lazy to accompany me.
"Why are you crying? Why don't you help us to the house and invite Wang Langzhong to come and take a look? If someone poisons us, we will not live anymore." Meng Laosan scolded.
It took a lot of effort for Wan to drag the two of them back to the house, and the door finally returned to calm.
Meng Ning was working, but after thinking about it, he still felt strange, but he didn't ask any more questions.
Meng Yao glanced at Meng Li. Meng Li was tapping her knee. She had walked a lot today and was still sore.
Without noticing, the little girl's eyes sparkled with admiration.
After a while, Meng Wu and Lu Mu came back. Seeing the door to the courtyard closed, they thought the three brothers and sisters were not at home.
At first glance, it was locked inside.
Hearing the knock on the door, Meng Ning came over, opened the door, and explained the situation just now.
"It's nothing. My brother-in-law and I want to bully people when we are not at home." Meng Wu cursed angrily upon hearing this.
If something hadn't happened to both of them, he would have rushed over and hit them right now.
"Brother-in-law, I won't go home. You can run the next few trips by yourself." Meng Wu felt that there should be at least one person at home who can fight.
After all, they were the ones who made Dafang and Sanfang suffer. They bear grudges and harbor hatred.
Lu Mu agreed. He was currently feeding cows under the ridge. The cows had been running for a long time and needed to replenish their strength.
Meng Ning was talking about what happened at the gate of the courtyard just now, and he was listening silently. Just yesterday, he saw two thugs falling down when they approached Meng Li. Meng Li even raised his hand, very quick.
There are quite a few surprising things about her.
Wang Langzhong arrived soon. He was wondering why things always happened to the Meng family these days.
"It's not a big deal. It's probably due to the spicy mustard and ginger water. Just clean it. Wait a few days and your eyes will be fine. I'll prescribe some anti-swelling medicine." Wang Langzhong said.
The people in the third room thought that someone was going to die, so they were relieved to hear what he said.
"Husband, what's going on? Why can't you tell me why? You will go to the one who got hurt to make compensation."
Meng Laosan finally recovered a little, but his eyes still couldn't open, like two walnuts, and his whole face was swollen like a pig's head.
"Something happened to my eyes as soon as I got close to the courtyard gate. I couldn't even see clearly. How can I find someone to compensate?" Meng Laosan said angrily. He frowned, and his eyebrows were twisted into a mark with the word "Sichuan" in them. They were full of resentment. .
"Maybe it's the second wife." Wan speculated, gritting her teeth.
"So what? You have no evidence. If you want to slander me, those bastards in the second room are in high spirits right now." Meng Laosan was filled with hatred and helplessness.
It's doubtful that this happened. Meng Li was at the door at that time, but she couldn't even stand firmly.
In the room over there, Meng Bufan screamed again: "Mom, my eyes hurt. I'll butcher a chicken later and fry a piece of bacon to replenish my body."
"Silly son, your eyes are swollen like this. You need to eat more lightly. Mom will cook more vegetarian food for you tonight."
Wan couldn't bear it. The family had to pay twenty taels of silver for yesterday's incident, and just now they had to pay for medical expenses. The family has been in a pinch for a while.
In the evening, the setting sun was shining brightly, and smoke rose from every house.
Smelling the aroma of fried meat coming from the second room, one smell of meat dissipated, and then another. People in the first and third rooms thought that the second room seemed to have been eating meat in the past two days.
Now that Meng Li is better off, the life of the second wife will become easier. Why doesn't this damn girl just stay in bed for the rest of her life?
In the past two days, Meng Ning built five new stools and put them on for everyone during dinner.
The dining table is also very worn out, so I built the dining table first, and then built a new bed for my eldest sister and brother-in-law. The main reason is that there are not enough long wooden boards now, so I will go back and buy some good ones from the owner.
Lu Mu earned a total of one hundred and twenty coins today, all of which were given to Meng Wu.
After dinner, Meng Wu and Meng Li called to the main room.
"Brother, what's going on?"
Meng Wu looked at Meng Li with admiration in his eyes.
"Sister, I was just hoping that you would wake up, as long as you wake up, but I didn't expect that you are smart and capable, and decisive when making decisions. Big brother knows that this family will not only be in trouble because of you waking up. It will lighten the burden and also make this home better than expected because of your ability.”
He handed a small bag of things into Meng Li's hand: "This is the nine taels of silver I earned back and forth, and a few hundred pennies. From now on, you will be in charge of the money of this family. The eldest brother is a boxing martial artist. You can't take care of these detailed things. You are also the eldest sister in the family, so you have to take on this responsibility. I believe you can do a good job."
When Meng Li saw her eldest brother recognizing her in this way, she didn't shirk it. It was indeed easier to run the business with money in hand.
"Okay, brother, within half a year, our family will be able to build a spacious and bright house."
Meng Wu's eyes flashed: "Sister, do you have this confidence?"
It can be completed in half a year, which is as unimaginable as a dream.
"Well, brother, leave it to me."
She doesn't want to build a house of stone and tiles, but of blue bricks and glazed tiles. She went out to the streets today, walked around and asked around, and got a relatively comprehensive understanding of prices.
If you want to build a large-scale blue brick and glazed tile building in the countryside, and it is of good quality, it will cost at least one thousand taels of silver. This is just an empty shell, and a lot of furniture and decorations will be added inside.
Seeing that his eldest sister was determined, Meng Wu nodded: "Let's work hard together as a family."
Two days later, all twenty clothes designed by Meng Li were rushed out. Boss Liu had these clothes hung in a conspicuous place that could be seen from outside the gate.
She stood beside the clothes rack and looked at the clothes, feeling amazed again in her heart.
When she looked at the design drawings, she knew that these clothes were extraordinary. When they were made into ready-made clothes and displayed, she had a more intuitive feeling. She just felt refreshing and bright.
"Boss, these clothes are really nice, but it's not a street day now, and there aren't many people on the street. How about I take some of them to the houses of wealthy families and ask them to see if the ladies like them."
Even though this is just a town, because of the developed business, there are 20 or 30 large families.
