The black-bellied peasant girl is reborn, and her weird relatives are mad
Chapter 13: Making a stumbling block
Li Jiufu stopped, as if he remembered something, and hurried to Jiang Muxia.
"Sister, look at my brain, I forgot to ask about your injury." Li Jifu blamed himself, "My mother told me to check on you first. Look, I forgot."
"Brother Ji Fu, I'm fine. Can you tell me what happened at home?" She had already dressed herself up, wearing a shirt and skirt, and had combed her hair into a big braid, making her look neat and fresh, which was a pleasant sight to the eyes.
The pigtail was taught to her by her benefactor, and she had not changed it for a long time since she started wearing it. It was not until she got older that she changed her hairstyle.
She likes this hairstyle, it is simple and easy to maintain.
Braiding her hair into a pigtail again reminded her of her past life. After she recovered from her burns, her benefactor gently combed her long hair with her soft and boneless hands, and her fingertips stroked her neck, making her empty and helpless heart feel warm.
For a long time afterwards, whenever she broke down emotionally, it was this warmth that penetrated deep into her bones that healed her.
The return incident happened three days ago. Several shops in the county that purchased goods from them came to return the goods, saying that there were quality issues with their products.
The fabric is brittle and will tear at the slightest tug.
I tried the returned products one by one in front of them, and found that it was true.
What is puzzling is that when the goods were inspected before shipment, this condition did not exist at all.
They checked the returned goods carefully and there was no doubt that they were their products.
This happened to several returns. What exactly happened?
Li Jiufu has been investigating for three days but still hasn't found the cause.
The Li family workshop has been open for seven years and has never had any quality problems. This time the incident happened suddenly. What happened?
So far, only a few shops in the county have returned the goods, and we don't know what the situation is with those sent to other places. If there are problems with all of them, the Li family may not be able to pay for the losses.
"Brother Ji Fu, think carefully, has there been anything unusual in the workshop recently?" She didn't believe that something like this would happen out of nowhere.
There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.
Li Jifu thought about it carefully. "If we talk about abnormalities, two foremen have recently resigned. Also, the workshop that supplies our family with hemp rope informed us that they are running out of stock and will have to stop for a while."
He was suspicious. His sister was weak-willed and had never had her own opinions. But today she was so clear-headed, with light and determination in her eyes, and the questions she asked were to the point.
"Has this never happened before?"
"For the past seven years, they have always been afraid of a decrease in orders. This has never happened... Could it be that someone is plotting behind the scenes?" Li Jiufu's eyes lit up and he finally figured out the whole thing.
Their family has been so successful over the years that they have lost their initial guard.
In the end, he still couldn't avoid the hidden arrows in the business world.
"I heard that a new weaving workshop has opened in the town, and the person behind them is a senior official in the county government." Jiang Muxia thought of Fang Guizhi's performance today, and things suddenly became clear. It was indeed the case.
In the previous life, the grand opening of the Ye family workshop in Zaoye Town was known to everyone in the town. The person sitting in the main seat at that time was Xun Qing, the county chief official.
There are not many weaving workshops in Zaoye Town, and the only one newly opened around the tenth year of Yuanhe is Ye’s workshop.
The people behind the scenes are the Ye family.
"I understand." It was obvious that the Ye family used Xun Qing's power to put pressure on the shops in the county, and the cloth became brittle because it was tampered with.
"Tomorrow is the county market day." She has already thought of a way to resolve this incident.
"That's right, the ninth day of every lunar month is a market day in the county. What are you going to do?" Li Jiufu asked.
Today, Jiang Muxia made him look at her with new eyes. This little sister finally got it.
She simply told Li Jiufu her idea, his eyes lit up and he nodded in agreement with her suggestion.
Lu Chaoyun was still worried about her elder sister, so she prepared to follow Li Jifuyun to Donggang Village.
"How about this, I'll go to the county first, and I'll come back to pick you up." He had made an appointment with someone and couldn't break his promise.
After Li Jiufu left, Jiang Muxia planned to have a good talk with Lu Chaoyun.
"Mom, please stop being busy. Let's talk." Jiang Muxia sat back on the bed. She patted the edge of the bed and asked Lu Chaoyun to sit down.
After everyone left, Lu Chaoyun calmed down and glared at her.
"What happened to you just now? Someone told you that you were stupid, and you picked on their scars. You are not usually sharp-tongued, but they were kind to you, and you treated them like this."
Her words made Jiang Muxia laugh, "Mom, according to what you said, even if they curse me in the face, I still have to smile and praise them."
"Are they wrong? You two don't look like my children. You are so stupid that you want to kneel down to people when you see them. You look so timid and stupid. I think you are not only stupid, but also losers." Lu Chaoyun became angrier and angrier as he spoke. He became more and more excited.
Jiang Muxia felt cold in her heart, knowing that Lu Chaoyun disliked the two sisters, but she didn't expect that they were so unbearable in the eyes of their own mother.
The corners of her lips curled up, tears sparkled in her eyes, "So, in your eyes, Tao'er and I have such different personalities."
"I have always been strong-willed. Everyone in the village looks up to me. Not only do you two not fight for my honor, but you always act in a humble manner. It makes me angry." Lu Chaoyun looked down at her with an imposing manner, "I really regret giving birth to you two."
The approval of the daughter's opinion that she had shown earlier has now disappeared.
"Okay, very good." Jiang Muxia looked disappointed, as if someone had stabbed a steel knife into her heart. Is this the mother she has been thinking about? She raised the corners of her mouth and forced a bitter smile, "But, have you ever thought that we were born like this? Don't you have any responsibility for us becoming like this?"
Lu Chaoyun said angrily: "What responsibility do I have? Whose family is like who? You are the same as your grandfather. At home, you are the five or six, but when you go out, you become the grandchildren."
"Really? You're the one who always scolds us for being stupid in front of others. You're the one who praises other people's children in front of us every day. You're the one who follows suit when others criticize us in public. It's precious that the two of us are still normal after going through such a long period of suffering."
She sat up straight, looked directly at Lu Chaoyun, and said firmly, "Mom, the fact is, the one who never fights for your reputation is you. You not only beat and scold us, but also your own face. As a daughter, I advise you to think carefully about whether what I said is wrong. If you still have this temper and always think that you are not wrong, our mother-daughter relationship will only become more and more distant."
Her words made the upright Lu Chaoyun furious. This daughter was really going to rebel. She walked up to Jiang Muxia without hesitation and slapped her twice.
