During that quarrel, Zhou Yuan felt sad from the bottom of his heart, because the attitude of his sister-in-law really hurt him.
In the past, when his sisters-in-law made trouble for him and made things difficult for him behind the back of his family, he endured because he thought that the family should be in harmony, and they are his sisters-in-laws. Arguing with them is just embarrassing for his elder brother and the others, and the family will become noisy… He was still conscious in his heart about the fact that he was unmarried and was always at home without any prospects.
He thought that his sisters-in-law are also in a dilemma, and that they have a bad attitude towards him, because he cannot get married. They were always sarcastically saying that he cannot get married but eats and drinks the foor at home for nothing- he was also aware of this and was conscious about this.
Ever since he got married, he has not eaten or drank for free at home, and he even went back with some things. Still, the attitude of his sisters-in-law at home is still the same as before. This time their verbal attacks is not because he can’t get married but because he is already a ger who married out and no longer a part the Zhou family… For the first time, Zhou Yuan felt truly sad amd disappointed withhis sisters-in-law.
He understood that when he was unmarried, his sisters-in-law have opinions, but they still have the same attitude after he got married and still wanted to teach him things. Zhou Yuan finally realized that the three sister-in-laws did not treat him as a family member.
Both Zhou Qiu and Zhou Muzi are good friends of Zhou Yuan, so they understand what he was saying. They secretly scolded Zhou Yuan’s three sister-in-laws in their hearts. Yuan Yuan has a soft temper, and a person had to be a truly irritating or bad one for Yuan Yuan to change his attitude towards that person.
But that’s okay, since Yuan Yuan changed, he won’t be like before, so they can rest assured.
When Yuan Yuan came back to the county alone that time, it was his three sisters-in-law who drove him away in disguise. They behaved badly so it would be difficult to rely on him when they come to their door in the future.
Zhou Yuan didn’t say that even if the three sister-in-laws came to the door, they would not get any benefits.
He knew that his husband was very displeased with his three sister-in-laws, and when he mentioned that their attitudes- his expression became different, his eyes were full of contemplation. The husband had never shown such a gloomy expression in front of him. The husband didn’t say anything, but he noticed his mood.
Zhou Yuan smiled and said, “Okay, let’s not mention these things. Didn’t you come today to talk about your affairs in the village.”
Alas, when asked, Zhou Qiu finally remembered what he was here for.
She was okay if no one mentioned it, but Zhou Qiu’s anger rises when she remembers what happened in the Li family. Zhou Muzi wanted to dodge this conversation when he realized that the topic shifted, he is afraid of talking about it.
Zhou Yuan blinked, why did Xiao Qiu get angry again? He didn’t know what happened.
“Yuan Yuan, you don’t know but the Li family is too much, they used Muzi as a servant. Letting Muzi do all the work in the family, and lettinh Muzi do all the field work, and the Li family’s second daughter-in-law is pregnant and won’t do anything to help…”

“How do you plan to show the true colors of the Li family?!”
Both Zhou Yuan and Zhou Muzi were curious at how she could show the true colors of the Li family, no matter how Xiao-Qiu defended Muzi, she was still an outsider. Going to Li’s house to make trouble for Li’s family is not a good idea, maybe Mother Li will turn the situation around to make Xiao-Qiu look bad.
Mother Li knew how to scold people, and every sentence she speaks was can pour dirty water on Xiao-Qiu. Xiao-Qiu is a girl and she has yet to be married, so if what Mother Li says spreads, it would mean a bad reputation for him.
“Ahh, I don’t need to expose myself to find justice for Muzi.” Zhou Qiu chuckled, “I learned in the village that you don’t have to go out to scold someone, you just need to hire a few bad-mouthed ladies in the village and let them go to the door of Li’s house. When they start swearing, Mother Li is definitely no match.”
Zhou Yuan was speechless: “…”
When did Xiao-Qiu learn this “skill”?
Zhou Muzi’s mouth was wide open, he didn’t know when Xiao-Qiu learned this kind of trick.
“This is a temporary solution. Li Hu’s mother has always hated Muzi. Afterwards, she would still has the same attitude.”
Zhou Yuan thought for a while, then turned his head to Zhou Muzi and asked, “Muzi, why don’t you and Li Hu come to work in my grocery store? I heard that my husband said would recruit a group… ah, a group of peddlers who specialise in selling grocery store goods. It seems that there are two options, one is to sell the goods by yourself, and the other is to become a grocery store employee. In addition to the monthly salary, there are relative bonuses for how much you sell.”
“You should come with Li Hu. There is staff housing in the store. If you and Li Hu come to work in the county, the Li family will not bother you.”
Zhou Qiu and Zhou Muzi’s eyes lit up, this is a good solution.
Zhou Qiu immediately said, “Muzi, agree quickly, if I were a man, I would also come to Yuan Yuan’s house to apply for a job.”
Zhou Yuan replied, “If we have to recruit female workers in the future, I will definitely find you.”
Zhou Muzi wanted to agree immediately, but he thought that Li Hu had just signed the employment contract, “Yuan Yuan, I can’t agree to your kindness at the moment.” He explained, “A-Hu came back yesterday and said that he found a long-term job and signed it. The contract is estimated to take three to four months to end so we can’t come now.”
There really is no way.
Zhou Yuan smiled and said, “It’s okay, if you come, tell me in advance, I will ask my husband when the time comes so that if there is any suitable job, then I will arrange it for you.”
Zhou Muzi nodded, “Okay, if there is then A-Hu and we will definitely come.”
The three of them were chatting in the private room when Wei Cheng came back from the grocery store to have a meal with his wife. He heard from Xiao-Liu heard that Zhou Qiu and Zhou Muzi had arrived, he turned and went up to the second floor.
The dishes in the private room were served, Zhou Yuan and the three chatted withone another while eating. Wei Cheng knocked on the door of the private room, and then opened the door just as the three were speaking leisurely.
“Husband, you are back!” Zhou Yuan shouted directly when he saw Wei Cheng.
Zhou Muzi and Zhou Qiu were stunned, they were stunned because of Wei Cheng’s clothes.
Wei Cheng has been in contact with businessmen and bosses recently, he can’t wear ordinary cotton clothes when socialising with such people. He has to wear clothes that fit a businessman.
At this time, he changed into a intricate brocade robe, with his jade crown and hair tied up, a tall and straight posture, strong facial features, and a calm momentum. The whole person looks like a rich, noble man.
Zhou Muzi and Zhou Cai were stunned, they didn’t dare to say hello, obviously they were a little intimadated.
In fact, the clothes Zhou Yuan was wearing were also high-quality brocade, with exquisite dark patterns and a simple and elegant style, but it was a bit low-key that they only noticed it after a while.
Wei Cheng is such a shrewd person, how can he not see that his wife’s friend were restrained in his presence, he immediately smiled at the two of them and said, “Xiao-Qiu and Muzi are here, you haven’t come to visit Yuan Yuan for so long, Yuan Yuan often mentions you that I’ve become a bit jealous of you two.”
Wei Cheng joked and the two finally returned to their usual relaxed attitude with Wei Cheng.
Zhou Qiu smiled triumphantly, “I’ll let you be a bit more jealous, so you won’t dare to treat my family’s Yuan Yuan badly.”
“How could I? I don’t even have such thoughts of harming my family’s Yuan Yuan, how could I treat him badly.” Wei Cheng retorted with a smile.
*
Wei Cheng didn’t stay after saying hello to them, he went to the back kitchen by himself, and ordered the back kitchen to cook some dishes, and eat with Wei Lei and the others.
Seeing that his master had shared a table with them today, Wei Hu was surprised, staring at his master with keen eyes before he shouted loudly, “Master, don’t you want to eat with the lord? That’s right, the lord’s friend came, and the master was thrown aside before he could even talk with him. Alright, let’s have lunch together.”
Wei Lei rarely smiled but this time he did when he heard Wei Hu’s words.
After getting along with Wei Cheng, Wei Yi and Wei Jin knew that Wei Cheng was an easy-going master who didn’t care much of their different identities but they still didn’t dare to make fun of their master. Wei Hu was the only one who dared to do so, but they desperately held back their smiles.
Wei Cheng sat firm and tall like Mount Tai, he raised his eyes but continued to pick up vegetables in his hands. He is always amazed with this subordinate of his, of course he is aware that Wei Hu is joking but there should still be some rules to be followed. Be serious when you should be serious, easy-going when you should be easy-going, and just grasp the atmosphere of the room.
Wei Cheng said indifferently, “Wei Hu, you are going to move goods at the dock tomorrow, you are too idle.”
Tomorrow is the delivery date of the sea goods.
When Wei Hu heard this, he protested loudly, “I’m not idle. I’m busy every day. I’m busy helping in the back kitchen and being the lord’s guard. I don’t want to go to the pier. The crabs last time were too scary. They can use their claws to bite people and never let go.”
The last time he dealt with seafood, he was bitten by the crabs, and he couldn’t get rid of it no matter how vigorously he shook it. He thought the crab was growing on him so now he wants to hide whenever he sees a crab.
Wei Hu heard that a crab cam even chang color!
Wei Hu begs his master for mercy!
