Begging You to Break Off This Engagement!

The Jing Family Ranch is the largest ranch in the area. Almost all the herdsmen in the surrounding area have some business dealings with his family. Some buy lambs from the Jing Family Ranch, and some sell lambs through the Jing Family’s contacts. Once they passed the Jing family, they could talk to them.

When Jing Rong first arrived, he didn't know that his younger brother had taken over the Jing family.He and Luo Ji arrived at night, found a place to stay that night, and thought about visiting a familiar herdsman after dawn, but the next day they picked up snacks and found an uncle's house they used to know. He refused to sell his sheep.

As for why it is not sold, people also said that all the sheep in the family have been reserved, and if they are sold to him, there is no way to sell them to the reserved one.

This kind of situation is understandable, so I didn't stay for too long. After chatting with that householder about the daily life, I found the next one, but I didn't know that the next one was in a similar situation.Although it didn't say that the sheep was booked, but he also found a plausible reason and didn't sell him.

Jing Rong felt a little strange at the time, because ten or eight of them couldn't be sold, but one or two couldn't be sold to him, which was a bit unreasonable.

Although he had been away from Jing's family for a while, these people would not be ignorant of such favors, so he found a third family.

The third family, whose surname is Guo, is headed by Guo Changsheng, who is considered to be of the same generation as Jing Rong.Jing Rong had helped this person back then, but he didn't find this one at the beginning because this person came back after a long trip.

Guo Changsheng's father had a problem with alcoholism, and he would beat Guo Changsheng when he drank too much.Sometimes Guo Changsheng was beaten so hard that he dared not go home, so Jing Rong let him live in the Jingjia Ranch, and secretly gave Guo Changsheng food.Guo Changsheng is also a kind person, so he always remembers Jing Rong's kindness.He told Jing Rong that it wasn't that the herdsmen didn't want to sell their sheep, but that they didn't dare to sell them.

But it turned out that not long after Jing Rong left, the old man of the Jing family fell ill.As for the cause of the disease, outsiders can't tell. I heard from the doctor who went to see the doctor that it was wind evil entering the body.

That was what happened last winter, and it has been almost a year in the blink of an eye, but it has not recovered, and has been lying on the kang.Now Jing Rong's stepmother and half-brother are mostly taking care of the affairs of Jing's ranch.

"I went out to inquire today. Your younger brother Jinghua found out the day after you came back. He also sent people to tell the herdsmen that if anyone dares to sell you the ewes, he will not accept them in the future. I don’t sell their lambs.” Guo Changsheng sighed, “It’s a pity that I don’t have many sheep now, otherwise I can sell you some.” Because he didn’t like Jinghua’s style, he didn’t deal with Jinghua , I am a little worried now.If he compromised, he would have to go to Jinghua, but he really didn't like that person.

"It's just too much to deceive people. How can there be such a man?" Luo Ji felt that his temper was already very good, but he still couldn't help but feel angry.

"I advise you to live in another place. If it doesn't work, you can make up with me for a while. The owner of the inn you live in now knows Jinghua and has a close relationship with Jinghua. I'm thinking about the news of Jingrong's return. That man told Jinghua." Guo Changsheng lives alone in his house.His mother and father are still alive, but his mother usually works as a helper in another family and does not live at home.His father didn't want their mother anymore.He saw that Jing Rong and Luo Ji were both men, and it was okay to live together, so he sincerely invited them.

"Even if I change places, I can't stay with you. Otherwise, if Jing Hua finds out, how can you buy sheep from Jing's house?" Jing Rong felt that this trip was a bit reckless. If I knew it would be like this, I should have inquired about Jing's house first. The situation will come back again.

"Anyway, I don't plan to buy sheep at Jing's." Guo Changsheng said, "I went to Qinbei County to look after sheep when I went out. The sheep there are of the same breed as ours. Think about it, you can't feel the distance I came here to buy sheep, why can't I go to Qinbei to buy them? Anyway, I don't want to deal with that boy Jinghua. Besides, Qinbei's sheep are better than ours. You don't know, Jingjia Ranch After Jinghua took over the sheep, Jinghua didn’t feed them properly. In order to save some fodder, Jinghua gave the sheep a lot of water when they were about to go out.”

"Then the merchants who collect the sheep can agree?" Jingjia Ranch has been in business for three generations, and no one has ever done this!Jing Rong frowned subconsciously.

"If you don't agree, there's nothing you can do. The Jing family will still sell mutton sheep this season."

"Forget it, it's none of my business anyway." Jing Rong said, "Brother Changsheng, you are busy first. My friend and I will go to pack up first, and I will trouble you in two days."

"Aren't you going to go back and have a look?" Luo Ji asked after leaving Guo's house.

"No. No one will welcome you when you go back. What are you going to do when you go back? Why don't you think about what to do next." Jing Rong thought of his father's indifference when he left, so he didn't even think about going back.After leaving, he didn't intend to turn back, "Qinbei County is three days away from here, and it will take more time to drive the sheep back. It's even farther away from our Huaping Village. But if you don't object, big brother , I want to go and see."

"To Qinbei?"

"Well. There are not only sheep, but also cattle. There are much more herdsmen than here. The pastoral area is also very large." Jing Rong snorted coldly, "Don't you want me to raise sheep? I still want to raise them Now, not only sheep, but also cows! Sooner or later, I will grow bigger than the Jing family ranch!"

"Okay. I'll go with you." Luo Ji smiled, and went back to the inn with Jing Rong to pack things.

After Jing Rong went back, she wrote a letter to Xi Yanqing, and then lived in Guo Changsheng's house.

Guo Changsheng is usually alone. He is obviously older than Jingrong, but he hasn't mentioned his wife yet.The key point is that there are more men than women in this place, and younger brothers are rare, so it is not easy to find a similar one.Guo Changsheng also asked Jing Rong if he was married, and said with a smile that if there were more girls in Huaping Village, he would also consider going to Huaping Village.

Of course, Guo Changsheng was just joking.But Jing Rong blushed unnaturally when he thought of the issue of marriage.

There are two rooms in Guo Changsheng's house, Jing Rong and Luo Ji live on the same kang at night.

When they were in the inn, Jing Rong and Luo Ji slept in beds, and each of them slept in a bed.It seemed like they couldn't let it go after that night of drunken debauchery.Obviously his mood has changed, but he is still somewhat embarrassed in front of the other party.

Guo Changsheng's house didn't have too many quilts, so Jing Rong and Luo Ji shared the same quilt and made the same bed.

Jing Rong couldn't sleep again.

Roger couldn't sleep either.He hesitated for a moment, reached out and took Jing Rong's hand.

Jing Rong didn't move, but his body became hotter and hotter.

Guo Changsheng was so honest that he burned two bundles of firewood, and the kang was already hot.

Jing Rong unconsciously pulled down the inner garment.

The black light is blind, in fact, Luo Ji couldn't see Jing Rong's movements clearly at all, but he could clearly feel that Jing Rong's breath was getting hotter and hotter...

"You mean, Jing Rong and his companions have moved to Guo Changsheng's house?" In the brothel, Jing Hua was holding a girl in his left arm and holding a wine glass in his right, asking the boy who came to reply.

"Yes, sir, I saw it with my own eyes." The man said, "Are these two people planning to contact other herdsmen again?"

"It's useless to contact. Didn't you tell the outside world as I ordered? No one is allowed to sell ewes to Jingrong. No one sells them?"

"No, you've already let go, who dares not give you face." The man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks smiled obsequiously, "In my opinion, they will get out of trouble after a few days."

"Yeah. You did a good job on this matter. After you go back, you will continue to watch over it. Again, no one is allowed to sell Jingrong ewes." Jinghua snorted, "Isn't Jingrong a man of integrity? I'd like to see how he grows the flock without ewes."

"That's what you said. Then if you have no other orders, the little one will continue to stare?"

"Go. Wait a minute!" A strange smile flashed across Jinghua's face.He hooked his hands at the clerk, and after the clerk got closer, he whispered a few words to him before waving him away again.

On the second day, Guo Changsheng's mother was fired by the employer, who said they couldn't afford someone like her.Originally, the Guo family didn't have many sheep, so the family lost another income, and Aunt Guo was so anxious that she had several bubbles in her mouth in a day.

Jing Rong didn't think about Jing Hua at first, but after hearing someone pass it on, he knew it was because he lived in Guo's house.

Jinghua has done an amazing job.

If it weren't for Jinghua's man who would always be accompanied by a few guys when he went out to show off, Luo Ji would have wanted to go up and beat him up.Not a thing and not too a thing.

Jing Rong is also angry.Especially when he thought that he had troubled the Guo family, he felt very sorry.But this place became more and more alienated from him, and he couldn't speak.

Fortunately, within two days, there was a reply from Xi Yanqing.

The letter was brought by Xi Yanqing himself, a oral message.Xi Yanqing rode Zhuifeng, Luo Yong rode another horse, and the two brothers came over in person.

"Brother Xi, Luo Yong, why are you here?" Jing Rong was very surprised when he saw Xi Yanqing and Luo Yong arrive.In his letter, he just mentioned that he couldn't buy sheep here, so he had to go to Qin Bei to have a look, which was expected to take some time.

"Brother Xi knew you were in trouble when he saw in your letter that you couldn't buy sheep, so we went to Shifu and rushed over here." Luo Yong looked like he would kill anyone who dared to embarrass Lao Tzu, brother, Lao Tzu, "Jing Rong, tell me, is it the fault of your half-brother?" Otherwise, why can't you buy sheep in this place?There are a lot of herdsmen here, did everyone agree not to sell sheep?Jing Rong said at the time that it was not easy to go for a trip, even if it was more expensive, he would buy it here and go back.

"My father is sick. Now Jinghua is my half-brother. He is in charge of the family. The herdsmen here dare not offend him, so naturally they dare not sell my sheep. Brother Changsheng asked me to stay with my elder brother for two days. Hua Bian didn't know what tricks they used to make Aunt Guo lose her job." After Jing Rong finished speaking, he introduced Guo Changsheng to Xi Yanqing and Luo Yong, "I'm just thinking about how to find another job for Aunt Guo."

"You child, I don't blame you for saying this. It's all that Jinghua is not a thing." Aunt Guo was anxious to get angry, but she didn't complain about Jingrong. She even made a scene for Jingrong. Rong's favorite hometown dish, "Let's not mention that nasty thing, Jing Rong, please try this goat milk cake. You two young men should also try it, it tastes good." Aunt Guo said to Luo Yong and Xi Yan Qing said.

"Thank you, ma'am." Luo Yong was blunt and began to eat.

Xi Yanqing paid attention to Aunt Guo and Guo Changsheng, and asked Jing Rong when she went out to eat at night: "Jing Rong, how are Aunt Guo and Brother Changsheng doing? Are they trustworthy?"

Jing Rong didn't understand why Xi Yanqing asked such a question, but he still said, "Nature is trustworthy. Brother Changsheng and I played together as children."

Xi Yanqing asked: "Then you said that if you let them go to Huaping Village, will they be willing? You see, we are raising more and more poultry and livestock, but you are the only one who knows how to raise sheep. You If something happens, we don’t know what to do if something happens to the lambs. In this case, why don’t you find one or two people who know how to raise sheep to help?”

Jing Rong thought about it, but it was true.

Seeing Jing Rong's silence, Xi Yanqing thought it might be hard to talk about it, so he said, "If it's impossible for these two people to leave here, then just pretend I didn't say anything. There is Brother Shi's shop here, so it's not difficult to help arrange a job." I just think that both of them have experience in raising sheep, so it would be nice if they could help out."

Jing Rong stopped: "Wait for me to go back and ask. I don't think it's impossible. At the time, Uncle Guo was drinking too much and beat his wife and children when he drank too much. If Mrs. Guo hadn't been used to living here, she would have left long ago. Who I can like a place that always reminds me of my nightmares."

How about Mrs. Guo's helpers looking for something that can cover board and lodging, even if the money is less.She just doesn't like her current home very much.

Originally, Jing Rong was still thinking about how to find another job for Aunt Guo, but now that Xi Yanqing said so, he didn't struggle anymore.He went to Aunt Guo and Guo Changsheng and told him what he thought.

Aunt Guo has never left her hometown in her life, so she didn't make up her mind immediately after hearing the words.But she didn't refuse outright, she just said that she had to think about it first.

Jing Rong wanted to go to Qinbei, so he didn't stay in Guo's house any longer.But when he left, he also said that when he came back, whether he bought sheep or not, he would pass by here. If Aunt Guo and Guo Changsheng went to Huaping Village, they would go together.

Xi Yanqing was still worried about Luo Fei and the little tiger at home, so she didn't go to Qinbei with Jing Rong and Luo Ji.He just gave Jing Rong another 30 taels of silver to let Jing Rong buy more sheep.If you see suitable cows, you can also buy two.

Jing Rong collected the money and went to Qin Bei with Luo Ji.

Xi Yanqing and Luo Yong did not go back to Huaping Village immediately, they went to the Jing family's ranch to have a look.Look at the growth environment of the flock, and also look at the area occupied.

"Brother Xi, why are you looking at these?" Luo Yong felt that Huaping Village was much better than Jing's ranch.Although there are not as many sheep as others, and the land is not as big as others.

"Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never end in a hundred battles." Xi Yanqing looked at the flock of sheep, "If I didn't think these lambs were innocent, I could make Jinghua have no sheep left overnight. It's a pity that doing so is too sinful, so let's keep this little lamb for now. The bastard will be arrogant for a while. At the latest, in three years, we will take over the Jing family ranch. In the future, we will lose him."

"I'd rather beat up that little bastard first!" Luo Yong said.

"I think so too." Xi Yanqing clasped his hands together and murmured a few words to Luo Yong.

At night, Jinghua still did not return to the brothel.Relying on their agility, Xi Yanqing and Luo Yong sneaked in, intending to take a chance to beat Jinghua up, but when they hid in the dark, they saw a person.

"Brother? Why are you here?" Xi Yanqing was startled.

"Hush!" Roger made a gesture of silence.

Someone came from a distance, but who wasn't Jing Hua who was going to the toilet?The three brothers were waiting for this opportunity.Xi Yanqing covered Jinghua's mouth in an instant, Luo Yong and Luo Ji beat him up, and finally knocked him out, put him in the latrine for a while, and then fished him out. quick!

Jing Rong didn't know this happened at all, and slept soundly.When he woke up, Roger was still there.He didn't even see anything amiss.

The two went to Qinbei, and Jinghua, who was almost choked to death by excrement, lay on the kang for a whole month and a half, and he also became paranoid, and dared not go to the toilet alone at night.

Jing Hua believed that it was Jing Rong and Luo Ji who beat him, but everyone in the inn could prove that Jing Rong hadn't gone out, so it was impossible for him to commit the crime.In the end, Jinghua had no choice but to suffer from being dumb and began to suspect other people he had offended.

Xi Yanqing and Luo Yong took the opportunity to visit the former general before returning to Huaping Village.

Luo Fei was about to collapse at this moment.He got up early in the morning, fed the chickens, ducks and geese, picked up the manure, and washed the clothes.And Luo Ru made food for two people, then took the sheep out and let them go, and swept the yards of the three families.

When Xi Yanqing left, he told Luo Fei that he could put aside any work that could be delayed at home, and he could do it when he came back, such as picking up manure, sweeping the yard, etc., and there was no rush for a day or two.

Luo Fei promised well, but he got used to seeing the house clean every day, and he couldn't bear to look at the mess when it was a day, so he wanted to do it himself.Who would have thought that he would be unable to stop doing this, and would be so tired that his back would ache at night.

"You just want to see me feel bad, don't you?" Xi Yanqing put the little tiger to sleep and rubbed Luo Fei's waist, "Don't do anything tomorrow, take a good rest."

"Hey, didn't I think that you are tired when you go out, so you can rest when you come back. I didn't expect it to be so troublesome." Luo Fei groaned, "Brother Qing, I have another idea to make money, but it's not suitable for us Yes. Go back to Brother Shi and tell them."

"What idea?"

"Do you remember those apples we ate during the Chinese New Year with words on them, like blessing, joy, and good luck? We can also write words on apples, and they will definitely sell well. But ours here The temperature can’t grow apples, so I thought, you can ask Brother Shi if there are any fruit farmers you know in the south, you can try it. Just paste the words on the fruit. The part with the words will not be exposed to the sun for a long time, and the color will be natural It's shallow."

"That's right, fruits with words are sure to sell well." Who doesn't want to be lucky, "I'll tell Brother Shi later."

"Yeah." Luo Fei responded, "By the way, have the ice creams sold less recently?"

"It's less. It's cold, so it's definitely not as good as in summer." Xi Yanqing said, "But mutton and haggis sell more, especially haggis."

"When will Jing Rong come back?"

"I guess it will take at least ten or eight days." It will take a while to go to Qinbei, and it will take time to watch sheep and cattle.It is even more difficult to come back.So I might have said less for ten or eight days, "Speaking of which, I met two people this time, a mother and a child. They also have experience in raising sheep. I also told Jing Rong that if I could invite these two people to come over and help fine."

"Well, there are more and more living things in the house, and there is indeed a shortage of manpower." Luo Fei's voice became smaller and smaller, and he was about to fall asleep.

Seeing this, Xi Yanqing was not willing to chat with Luo Fei anymore, and soon fell asleep with Luo Fei in her arms.

The following days are still busy.He feeds chickens, ducks and geese every day, cleans up manure, cooks, does laundry, and sweeps the yard. The dried vegetables in winter are all dried, and Luo Fei has to pickle some pickles.Every day, when I get up in the morning, I have to be busy until late, and I am extremely fulfilled.Fortunately, the busyness has paid off.

Wan Dayun agreed to rent Xi Yanqing and Luo Fei's shop, and Xi Yanqing also negotiated with him. In the future, not only meat and haggis can be sold in the shop, but also ice cream and fruit dumplings.Wan Dayun keeps the money he earns from selling meat and haggis, and gets half of the money from selling other things.

Both Xi Yanqing and Luo Fei are not too stingy, they are still very generous to their friends.They plan to do so before they run out of sheep.When there are more sheep and chickens grow up, they will set up a hot pot restaurant by themselves.
