In the year of disaster in the book, the villain girl is the real winner

Yanshi came over with a smile.

"Qiu Di, I'm back. I came back yesterday afternoon. I was planning to ask Yang Ba to go to Shiliu Village to give you a message today, but I didn't expect to meet you here. Is this grocery store yours?"

"Yes. This grocery store is owned by the He family. If you need anything, you can come and buy something. I'll ask my second brother to give you a discount."

Yan Shi was curious: "What is the discount?"

He Qiudi explained: "If you buy a certain amount of things, our grocery store will give you something for free. But the things we give you are in short supply. Here, this is the soap I made by studying soap balls and bath beans. The functions are similar, but they don't dissolve in water. They are clean and convenient."

As he spoke, He Qiudi handed him the packaged soap.

"I'll give you these two pieces first. If they're useful, you can buy more and give them to your relatives and friends. They can also be used to clean your hands before and after meals, and they can also make your clothes fragrant when you wash them."

Yan Shi took the soap, but gave her one or two taels of silver.

He Qiudi waved his hand and said, "I agreed to give it to you, how can I take your money?"

"No merit, no reward. These are the goods you want to sell for your business, so why would I just take them away? Business is business, and business is business."

He Qiudi thought about it and accepted the money.

"The soap is sold for fifteen cents each. I will charge you one ounce of silver. The rest of the money will be used as payment for your order. I will give it to you after the soap is made."

The corners of his mouth curled slightly during the banquet.

"also may."

Yan Shi just came back from patrolling three counties yesterday. He would be quite busy today, so He Qiudi stopped disturbing him and said goodbye to him.

She bought some lard and took the donkey cart back to the village, where she made soap with Jin Cuihua and Old Lady He.

Wei Sixian still asked He Qingshu to come and help.

I didn’t dare to go into the kitchen.

He was afraid of being criticized by Jin Cuihua, and even more afraid of being settled by Old Lady He.

But He Qingshu had never done housework since she was a child. Not to mention helping, she didn't even know how to light a fire. She only made things worse, and Grandma He chased her away.

He Qingshu felt wronged.

Jin Cuihua gave a thumbs up to Grandma He.

After Wei Sixian brought He Qingshu back to the house, Jin Cuihua said, "Mother, it was right to drive away the eldest sister-in-law and Erya. The eldest sister-in-law is very cunning. I'm afraid she is thinking about the secret recipe of making soap."

Mrs. He felt relieved, but she said, "You are so cunning."

"Hehe. I'm not as smart as my mother. The important thing is that the secret of making soap must not be known to the first wife's family. Mother, don't worry, I can't learn the secret even if you tell me. I will take Dalang and Sanlang with me to work with Qiudi, and when we make money, just make me two sets of clothes."

Before, He Qiudi and his friends made clothes.

Old Mrs. He agreed that she would make two sets of clothes for each family that performed well during the spring plowing and harvest.

Since Xu was pregnant, this good thing naturally fell on Jin Cuihua.

But since He Huaian had to go to the city to run a grocery store, Jin Cuihua gave him her share of the clothing business.

I only made two sets of thin clothes with rough cloth.

He Huaian is a good businessman, and the novel soap soon became a hot seller in his hands.

After discussion among their family, the He family sold the soap to the grocery store for ten cents, and the money belonged to He Qiudi.

After deducting the costs, all the profit belongs to He Qiudi.

He Qiudi would take a penny and make it public, and then distribute it according to work at the end of the month, as a reward for everyone's hard work.

By this calculation, a lot of money actually went into the He family's public pocket.

The main workers making soap were He Qiudi, Jin Cuihua, Grandma He, Grandpa He, He Dalang and He Sanlang who came back from school, and He Huaian who came back from the city.

He Huaian wanted to bring He Huaiping back home, and he used the reason that the housework required someone with physical strength to do it.

Old Mrs. He was angry, but she was willing to give He Huai a way out.

If Xu still doesn't recognize her mistake and is unwilling to come back, then they can just get divorced and just bring He Huaiping back.

When He Huaian went to Lan County to pick up He Huaiping, he brought three hundred bars of soap with him, intending to sell them to the grocery stores in Lan County at a relatively cheap price, and then give some soap to the Feng family for use.

When he went to pick up He Huaiping, He Huaiping would take Xu back to Shiliu Village.

Xu didn't want to leave at first.

He Huaiping looked at her calmly: "We have been married for so many years, and I have always stood by you. I knew that my mother didn't like you, so I protected you everywhere. I thought you were grateful, but I didn't expect that once you got pregnant, you felt that you had someone to rely on, and your true nature was revealed."

"Before you had a conflict with my mother, I stood by you and the child. After half a month, I often regretted it and felt that I really deserved to die. I was so unfilial that my mother was heartbroken and returned home."

During the half month he stayed at Xu's house, He Huaiping saw many things clearly.

When he worked before, he left some money for Mrs. Xu, who then gave it to Mrs. Meng.

Even my mother treated Xu and my third brother's wife equally.

It's not as biased as Xu appears to be. She only gives the benefits to her third brother's wife.

As for Qingya and Qinglu, they could only wear clothes discarded by their younger sister and had no new clothes all year round. This was because Xu saved up any copper coin she could find to pay for her nephew's studies.

In my heart, there are no two daughters at all.

What he saw and heard during the half month at the Xu family broke his previous fixed cognition.

Either the mother hated little Meng, or she humiliated Xu.

Rather, Xu herself is not worthy of being valued or looked at differently.

But Xu thought that she couldn't stand up straight in the He family because she had no son.

"Since you don't want to go back to Pomegranate Village, then stay here. I'll take Qingya and Qinglu with me. You can give birth to the baby and raise it yourself, or give it to the He family. You can even abort it by drinking a bowl of red soup after I leave. I won't interfere with you."

When Xu Yushi heard this, she immediately became anxious.

"Master, I... I was just angry. It's not that I don't want to go home with you. I'm afraid that my mother-in-law is still angry with me. I'm afraid that if I go back to the He family, she will be even angrier."

She is just a bully at home.

She only dares to be domineering in front of He Huaiping, and only dares to go against her mother-in-law at her own mother's house because she is pregnant.

But if she were asked to return to Shiliu Village and face Old Lady He, she would never dare to act rashly.

This time when I return to Shiliu Village, I will definitely settle old scores with Old Lady He.

This is the reason why she is most reluctant to return to Pomegranate Village.

"That's up to you."

After saying this, He Huaiping went to find He Qingya and He Qinglu.

He Qinglu had already packed her luggage when He Huaiping arrived, and she couldn't wait to follow him back to Shiliu Village.

He Qingya was concerned about whether Xu would go back to Shiliu Village with him.

He Huaiping sighed: "Don't worry about your mother."

As soon as He Qingya heard this, she knew what it meant.

There was a sense of loss in her eyes: "Father, I will go and persuade Mother."

Xu was in the room, crying alone.

"Mother, don't be angry with father, let's go home together. Once grandma calms down, everything will be fine."

Xu held He Qingya in her arms, her eyes firm, "Qingya, you don't understand. It's your father who is disappointed with mother. Or rather, your grandmother asked us to divorce and marry him a young new wife, and he was tempted. Qingya, your father is unreliable, and mother can only rely on you."

"Before, you also saw Yan Shi in Lan County. You were right. He is a good son-in-law. But you must remember that if your sister-in-law can do it, so can you. We don't want to be concubines in the dowry. Our goal is to be the main wife. Be good and obedient, and mother will help you."

He Qingya was held in Xu's arms, looking ahead in confusion, not knowing what to do.

That day, when she met Yan Shi on the street, Yan Shi greeted her and A Niang with a smile, which warmed her cold heart.

It's like the chilly spring, with peach blossoms in full bloom.

The image of that handsome young man was completely imprinted in her mind and could never be erased.

She knew that the opportunity to change her fate had been given to her. Only by returning to Pomegranate Village could she snatch the opportunity from her aunt and hold it firmly in her hands.
