Parents are busy farming

Chapter 90 Reasons for Prodigality

On both sides of the story, Zhang Huaiyu had taken this matter to heart since he agreed to help Zifen find out about Wang Tingmei's husband.

In addition, he himself was at the Yamen, so the investigation was not difficult.

As soon as the news came out, I took advantage of the break to pick up my wife and chatted with Ye Zifen.

"Wang Tingmei's husband was unreliable when he was young. His family was relatively well-off, but he was just too lazy to work. When his father was alive, it was okay to have someone to press him and he didn't dare to mess around. But after his father died, it was no longer possible."

Ye Zifen listened attentively, but she didn't expect that Zhang Huaiyu needed someone to answer the question.

The leaves are very anxious.

"What's wrong?" Ye Zifen rolled his eyes on purpose and asked angrily.

That is to say, only when Ye Zifen and Zhang Huaiyu are familiar with each other can they say this, otherwise it will not be like saying it in other people's homes.

Zhi Xuan also glanced at her husband angrily.

Zhang Huaiyu quickly cleared his throat and said: "That man started eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling, especially gambling. You don't know, this gambling is the most addictive. So it didn't take long for him to spend all his family's savings, and his mother He is such a pampered son. In addition, he was able to deceive others when he was young and coaxed back a daughter-in-law with so much dowry. The old lady felt that her son was even more amazing. "

Ye Zifen nodded while listening.

"No, the family has no money, so he has set his sights on Wang Tingmei's dowry money. He said he was going out to do business, but instead he went into the casino and wouldn't go home until he lost all his money. He lost the bet. From now on, he just said that the business was losing money and continued to ask for money. In two years, he sent thousands of taels to the casino! That Wang Hongmei is also a fool. In order for him to do a good business, he mortgaged all the shops included in the dowry! "

Zhang Huaiyu shook his head as he spoke.

After hearing this, Ye Zifen raised the corners of her mouth, revealing a faint smile.

When Zhi Xuan saw her sister's expression, she knew that someone was going to be in trouble, and it was going to be a big one.

Her sister rarely cares about anything with others, but if she does, she won't make things easier for her enemies.

I remember two years ago.

It turns out that there is a bastard in their village who is even worse than Bai Dazhuang, who makes up nonsense and insults his mother's reputation.

Everyone was so angry that they couldn't do anything.

But not long after, the man fell into a pit on the roadside in the middle of the night because he was drunk, and froze to death in the middle of the winter.

Before he froze to death, he took off all his clothes and was naked when he was found.

Their local people believe that what a person's soul will look like after death is what it looks like when he dies.

People like him can only be a lonely ghost.

She had seen this expression on her sister's face before she got married at that time.

At that time, she suspected that her sister was responsible, but she was only six years old at the time.

In fact, it was Ye Zifen who did that. It was very simple. He deliberately dropped two taels of silver in front of the man's accomplices. They all saw it when the man picked up the silver.

How about not going to have a drink?

After drinking, my steps were frivolous, and if there was any accumulation of water on the roadside, it would freeze into ice. Since there is a slope, people would naturally fall into the ditch.

It was a cold day, it was night, and there was no one to help. Even if he didn't freeze to death, he would get seriously ill. His family had no money, so he would die in the end?

Of course, these Ye Zifen will not tell Zhi Xuan.

She didn't plan to handle Wang Hongmei's family affairs in this way. She has no idea yet and plans to go to Mu Hongzhou to discuss the matter.

"I understand. Thank you, brother-in-law. My family has been too busy recently. I haven't asked my brother-in-law how he is doing at the Yamen yet?" Ye Zifen asked, changing the subject.

Zhang Huaiyu looked at his aunt and said, "Thanks to you, the county magistrate knew about our relationship and took great care of me. Now I have a lot more power. Although I haven't been promoted, the real benefits have increased. "

Ye Zifen smiled and said, "This has nothing to do with me. Brother-in-law, you have the ability yourself. Sister, don't you think so?"

Zhi Xuan patted her playful sister's hand.

"naughty!"

As per the old rules, Ye Zifen got out of the car at the gate of the city, bought the sheep and then went to the shop.

We came to the mutton soup restaurant earlier today, and Ye Zifei hasn't gone back yet.

There were a few customers lingering at the door of the store. Seeing that Wang Sheng was communicating with them, Ye Zifen walked over to ask what was going on.

"what happened?"

When Wang Sheng saw his boss coming, he immediately went over and told her everything.

Several of the guests were boatmen on the boat. Although it was not a rough trip, they really didn't eat anything as delicious as their mutton soup restaurant.

So a few people discussed it to see if they could buy a big pot and go.

What did Ye Zifen think it was?

"There is no mutton soup in the store now?" she asked Wang Sheng.

"Yes! I told them there was no more, and they said they would lift the anchor early tomorrow morning, so I asked if I could send it to them at night." Wang Sheng explained.

Ye Zifen pondered for a moment and came to a few people.

"It's my family's honor that several guests like our mutton soup. Mutton soup is no different from others. It requires a long time to cook. It will be available tomorrow morning at the earliest. Even if it was a few hours earlier today, you wouldn't be able to make it. Come and get it when you have time!" Ye Zifen said.

He heard from his aunt that for a large cargo ship, the crew must be in place two hours before anchoring.

The first is to check for any hidden dangers, and the second is to let the crew eat and recharge their batteries to have enough strength to row.

A few people were very embarrassed, but they still didn't want to give up. This time they went north and finally came across delicious food at a reasonable price. How could they miss it?

I just accepted it if I didn't have it before, but now it's absolutely impossible to ask them to accept it.

They discussed it and sent a representative to come up and say to Ye Zifen: "Can the store send it to the ship for us?"

Zi Zifen hesitated for a long time. She didn't want to lose this business because it was so rare.

"Okay! Why not? I'll deliver it to you then!" Ye Zifei said as she came out of the shop.

"Sister! Don't talk nonsense. The city gate hasn't opened yet and you can't get in at all!" Ye Zifen said.

"Then I won't go back tonight." Ye Zifei said matter-of-factly.

"If you don't go back, where will you rest at night? Will you be able to keep an eye on the shop during the day tomorrow?" Ye Zifen asked in return.

Ye Zifei was choked for a moment, but thinking of the half-tael order, she still didn't want to give up.

Zi Zifen thought for a while and said: "You can drive Lao Liutou's ox cart back later, and leave the donkey cart to me. Gao Yi and I will take it to them tomorrow morning!"

When Ye Zifei heard it, she nodded and hurried to the city gate. If she didn't go, she would not be able to catch up with Old Liu Tou's oxcart.

Let her walk back, even if she is killed, she will not agree.

"I wonder what the guests use to serve these mutton soups?" Ye Zifen asked.

"We have a big pot there. We will bring it to you in a while. Just use the big pot and send it to us tomorrow morning." The crew member quickly answered.

Finally, they no longer have to chew on cold steamed buns and horrible pickles.

Ye Zifen nodded and agreed.

After seeing off the guests, Wang Sheng said to Ye Zifen: "I will come early tomorrow morning, and brother Gao Yi and I will send them to the dock and boat together. You are a girl, and it is not good to go to that kind of place."

At first, Ye Zifen was not sure why it was not convenient for girls to go.

Later I learned that the women who went on the boat were all in the flesh business, so the women who got off the boat should not talk about their good reputations, but it would be good if they were not scorned by people.
