Chapter 109 Lively
This time when she goes back, she will see if her family still dares to say that she is confused!
Aunt Liu left happily and was caught by the gossipy woman in the village.
"It's absolutely true!"
The woman turned around and started spreading rumors under the big tree, yelling at the villagers around her.
"You didn't see it, the Liu family's daughter-in-law was holding such a big purse, it was bulging!"
"Really? The village chief said that yesterday, and I thought he was joking."
"Yes, there are plenty of chestnuts on the hill. If you pick them up, you can get quite a few."
Several people were chattering, and those who originally didn't believe it were also shaken.
There are so many chestnut trees on the mountain that you can get a big bag if you pick some.
Although Fang Tong only needs to remove the skin of the chestnuts, the chestnuts are heavy and more than ten pounds can be produced in a day.
"I'll forget about that. I still have seven or eight pounds of chestnuts at home. I'll send them all to them now."
"I'm going too, I'm going too!"
A few people patted their buttocks and ran home in a hurry.
There are not many good things like this. What if I go too late and Wan Fangtong doesn’t get it?
Soon, the Qin family's door was surrounded by people.
"Sister Qian, look at mine first!"
"Go away, I came here first, I have more, count it for me first!"
"Stop pushing!"
Fang Nanzhi's small figure squatted aside.
Seeing the threshold almost being trampled down, the little girl refused to stand it any longer.
She simply moved a wooden chair over, chose a flat spot, and stood on it.
"If anyone keeps pushing us, we won't accept their chestnuts!"
After these words were shouted, the crowd's agitation indeed subsided a lot.
Seeing that they had settled down, Fang Nanzhi cleared his throat.
"Again, we want chestnuts in the shell, not in the shell!"
"I have plenty here, please don't refuse."
"Don't worry, we want everyone who comes here today!"
Fang Nanzhi wasn't sure how much her father wanted, but since they had signed a long-term document, the more the better!
The crowd instantly quieted down. Knowing that their trip would not be in vain, what was wrong with waiting in line for a while?
"Sister Qian, these are all good chestnuts." Old Mrs. Zhao laughed, her upturned eyes revealing a shrewd look. "You'd better take good care of them. Don't count them too little for me."
Qian Fengping was too lazy to pay attention to her. Old Mrs. Zhao was always busy, and now she was obviously getting more and more demanding.
After picking out a lot of bad chestnuts that were pressed down, Qian Fengping finally got on the scale.
"Three pounds."
"How could it be only three pounds?"
Old Mrs. Zhao refused to do it and her smile instantly fell.
"I brought five kilograms with me, how could there be only three?"
"These two kilograms of yours are bad, we won't accept them."
Qian Fengping is usually honest, but not stupid, and he definitely won't be taken advantage of.
"You are bullying me, what's wrong with that?"
Old Mrs. Zhao was anxious and was about to throw a tantrum, but she met the cold eyes of Qin Yan next to her, and her anger subsided immediately.
Thinking of the last time the kid shot an arrow in public, the old lady felt inexplicably chilled.
"Grandma Zhao, this is fifteen cents."
Qin Yan stepped forward, his voice distant.
"If you cause trouble now, we won't buy a single pound of chestnuts from your family in the future."
Old Mrs. Zhao broke out in a cold sweat and took the money with gritted teeth.
"You're so scary at such a young age, you might not be able to find a wife in the future!"
Her mumbling did not arouse Qin Yan's anger. Instead, he watched her leave with a calm expression.
Since he wanted to collect chestnuts, he would inevitably have to deal with people like this, and he had thought about it in advance.
Outside the county town, the four brothers hurried to the city gate.
Cheng Xiaohu was waiting there early, pacing back and forth.
"Xiao Hu, why are you here?" Tie Zhu called out, particularly eagerly.
Cheng Xiaohu looked up when he heard the voice, and the smile that had just appeared on his face froze instantly.
He walked quickly forward, looked at Fang Tong's face, and became furious.
Knowing that they were coming, Cheng Xiaohu had been waiting here for half an hour.
Who knew that what he saw was Fang Tong's swollen and purple face.
"Brother Fang, what's wrong with your face?"
When I came here yesterday, I was still fine!
"Well," Fang Tong touched his cheek and sighed helplessly, "Isn't this the work of Chef Song and his nephew?"
Fang Tong did not hide anything and told Cheng Xiaohu everything.
"Don't worry, I'm here to take revenge today."
He brought some people with him today, and he wanted to see if the man surnamed Song could still be so proud.
"Yes, let him see how powerful we are. Don't worry, Xiaohu, we will avenge you together."
Tiezhu was honest and explained with a silly smile, not forgetting to shake his sandbag-sized fist.
The brothers were confident that no matter what they said, they would not let Fang Tong lose a single hair.
Cheng Xiaohu looked at Brother Fang's hurt face and his expression became extremely ugly.
No wonder that when Shopkeeper Zhao came back that day, only Chef Song came out, and Fatty Song was nowhere to be seen.
It turns out that he went to block the copper!
Cheng Xiaohu gritted his teeth, his veins popping out.
He should have thought of it earlier that the uncle and nephew had bad intentions!
After holding it in for a long time, he finally managed to squeeze out a sentence from between his teeth: "They are so shameless that they can do such a shady trick! I won't let them go."
Seeing that he was unhappy, Goudan changed the subject and asked, "Xiaohu, what are you doing here right now?"
"Shopkeeper Zhao is very interested in the cake business. I remember that Brother Fang has been coming to the city every day recently, so I decided to try my luck."
Fang Tong became interested when he heard this and asked, "Shopkeeper Zhao wants to buy a cake?"
Cheng Xiaohu nodded, but the anger on his face did not diminish at all: "With that uncle and nephew around, Taotie Tower has no good future. Brother Fang, you are being bullied by them like this, so you might as well not sell cakes to Taotie Tower."
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Cheng Xiaohu wished he could go back and break up with them right now. How could he be willing to let Fang Tong do such a bullying business?
When Fang Tong heard this, he didn't get angry but laughed instead.
"Xiao Hu, what you said is not right. Who would have a problem with money? Fatty Song hit me, it's Fatty Song's problem. His uncle is not the shopkeeper, he has no right to interfere in this matter."
"The third brother is right." Erwa also chimed in, looking particularly clever as he smiled: "That Song guy has no say in that. As long as your boss likes it, just pay for it."
Tiezhu and Goudan also nodded, thinking that what the two said made sense.
Who doesn't like money?
"But……"
"Don't say but." Fang Tong interrupted him: "I have my own way to deal with this matter. Don't worry. I will go to Taotie Tower and talk to your shopkeeper."
The words that were about to come out of Cheng Xiaohu's mouth were forced back, and he looked at Fang Tong and nodded.
Although he was dissatisfied, he would definitely believe Fang Tong when he said he had a way.
"It's getting late. You should go back earlier. We'll go and deliver the goods first."
