Chapter 227: Disdain and Despise
The village chief's house was very lively. After listening to Xie Jiaojiao's words, everyone had a smile on their faces.
"Ms. Xie, if we plant so much, will we be able to sell them all?"
"Don't worry about this. Since I dare you to grow it, I will naturally find a way to sell it."
After hearing what she said, everyone felt relieved.
Xie Jiaojiao added: "But there is no more planting, so everyone can plant two more acres this year. Of course, the same thing applies, these seeds must not be circulated. If they are circulated, they will be everywhere and will be worthless."
The man who received Xie Jiaojiao's red envelope during the Chinese New Year stood up and said, "Don't worry, I'm here, and I won't let anyone take advantage of you!"
Now that it has been confirmed, Xie Jiaojiao said that she would ask everyone to go to her house to line up and get the sugarcane seeds to be planted this year.
As soon as he finished speaking, several people from the He family came.
"Ms. Xie, can our families grow sugarcane this year?"
Xie Jiaojiao looked at their flattering expressions and narrowed her eyes slightly: "I remember not letting anyone notify you."
A few people had agreed on the way that if Xie Jiaojiao rejected them, they would act like scoundrels!
Anyway, they have to plant it this year! They can't just watch others make money!
Therefore, when they heard Xie Jiaojiao say this, they immediately lay on the ground and rolled around, which made Xie Jiaojiao frown!
Not only Xie Jiaojiao frowned, everyone else frowned! Several grown men...
But Xie Jiaojiao didn't say anything. The few of them just rolled on the ground, which was also very embarrassing.
Seeing that the few people stopped rolling around in embarrassment, Xie Jiaojiao asked, "Have you had enough of the fight?"
He Dashan said, "Xie Jiaojiao, if I offended you because of what my wife said, I apologize to you. But since you have made a fortune with the people in the village, what's the harm in taking us with you? And because of this, I also chased my wife away. Until now, she hasn't come back. Isn't this a punishment?"
The same is true for several other sources.
It's just their families. The daughter-in-law was not beaten away, but life is difficult. If they can't make ends meet, they will run away sooner or later. In the past, everyone in the village was poor, so they didn't feel that life was difficult. But now, only their families are poor in the village, so life has become difficult. Just think about it, this family eats meat, that family eats meat all day long, but it is not their turn to eat meat. It's painful to think about it!
Seeing them say this, Xie Jiaojiao also said, "Do you think it's your wife who made me unhappy?"
He Dashan waved his hand: "What else? I know that she and your eldest brother..."
Having said this, he glanced at Xie Jiaojiao's expression and immediately changed his words: "Oh, no, Xie Zhishu's wife has a good relationship with them and said a few words for them, so you hold a grudge against them..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Jiaojiao sneered and nodded slightly: "If you say so... maybe there is a part of the reason, but... do you know what the biggest reason is?"
He Dashan pouted: "What other reason is there! Could it be that we have provoked you?"
Xie Jiaojiao clapped her hands: "You are right!"
Several people were at a loss, and He Dashan immediately asked: "When have we ever offended you?"
"Have you forgotten? This is the place! When I asked the village chief to gather everyone to help harvest sugarcane, you guys were here, looking down on us, and making sarcastic remarks?"
Several people looked at each other in bewilderment: "Didn't we know at that time that this sugar cane was used to make brown sugar?"
Xie Jiaojiao chuckled: "So now that you know, you want to plant it with licking your face?"
Several people did not dare to answer.
Just as Xie Jiaojiao turned around to go back, He Dashan spoke up: "Xie Jiaojiao, it's been so many years, if you want to vent your anger, you've already done it, so let us plant the seeds this year! Isn't it okay for us to apologize to you?"
"I don't need your apology. I'm doing business. I can bring whoever I want to bring and whoever I don't want to bring. No matter how much you say, it's useless!"
Xie Jiaojiao said to the villagers in the yard: "Let's go to my house to get the sugarcane seeds. I have asked my family to distribute them to everyone."
Everyone looked at He Dashan and the others, then followed Xie Jiaojiao.
He Dashan went to pull the village chief again and said, "Village chief, please say something good for our families! If this continues, we won't be able to live like this!"
Chen Shouren sighed, pointed at them and said, "Why were you so rude in the first place? She is a person who will never let go of a grudge, and you had to provoke her. Today, you made such a scene, and she is also angry now. I'm afraid you won't be able to plant sugarcane this year. You should be more careful in the village this year! At the end of the year, I will go and say a good word for you, and see if you can plant it next year!"
Several people listened and groaned in their hearts!
Chen Shouren ignored them and called out to Wang Qiushi, "Let's go get the sugarcane seeds!"
Wang Qiushi hurriedly followed out.
They didn't want to stay here any longer, so they walked home dejectedly.
When passing by Xie Zhili's house, seeing Xie Zhili still weaving winnowing baskets, he couldn't help but say sarcastically: "Your sister brought the whole village with her, eating delicious food and drinking spicy drinks, but didn't bring you along, and you still have the interest to weave things!"
Xie Zhili didn't even raise his head and continued with his work: "I have already severed my relationship with her, so you don't need to seek a sense of existence from me."
Seeing that it was boring, the few people snorted and walked away. After taking a few steps, they heard the sound of Xie Zhili's door closing.
One of them cursed with a flat mouth: "A family without children, arrogant as hell!"
He turned and left after cursing.
The sound was neither loud nor soft, and the farmyard had poor sound insulation, so Xie Zhili heard it all. However, he was already numb. Xie Zhili put away the winnowing basket he had woven, and began to clean up the house that had been burned down. He had been cleaning for several days and had almost finished it.
By the time Xie Jiaojiao had distributed the sugarcane seeds to the villagers, it was already dark.
After a good sleep, the next morning, when I was having dinner, Lai Fu came in with an invitation.
"Master, Madam, this is an invitation from Master Zhang."
When Jiang Weinan saw the red invitation, he immediately reached out and said, "Give it to me."
As soon as he opened it, he smiled and said, "When I met Zhang Fei a few years ago, he said that his family wanted to arrange a marriage for him. I didn't expect that he would get married so soon. He invited us to the wedding."
Xie Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows slightly, and said nonchalantly, "Which girl is so confused that she wants to marry him?"
"Hahaha... Look at you. Although we three were spoiled brats, we didn't do anything that was against the law."
Xie Jiaojiao smiled slightly, it was just a joke: "What day is this?"
"The twenty-ninth of this month."
Xie Jiaojiao nodded slightly: "Okay, after his wedding, we will go to Jiangbo City. We should also put the transportation matter I told you about last year on the agenda."
