My Children Are Fierce and Adorable!

Chapter 280: An Argument

Guan Chibei’s wife was just out of her confinement period. After giving birth to triplets, they were as precious as gold. She stayed in the house for a year without working.

She had just come out to walk around recently.

They originally thought that Ye Lulu’s stall would not have as good a business as Mother Rong’s. Unexpectedly, as soon as they came over, the surrounding villagers widened their eyes.

What was going on?!

Weren’t these burly men the fiercest and most impatient?! How could they wait so long in such a long line calmly?!

Furthermore, there was a strong fragrance around them. This fragrance was even stronger and more refreshing than Mother Rong’s. It was so spicy that it made one’s head spin, but it also made one salivate. They wanted to eat something.

This…

Was this from Ye Lulu’s stall?!

Ye Lulu was extremely fast at cooking. It wasn’t long before it was the next person’s turn, but there was still a steady stream of people coming from the long queue. The villagers were dumbfounded and remembered how Auntie Beizi had returned to say that each person could spend ten or twenty copper coins at Ye Lulu’s stall. Then…

The villagers who had followed the Guan family to the docks to see the Guan family’s business were in a daze. Their legs went limp as they turned around and returned to the mountain.

The news of the Guan family setting up stalls spread like wildfire in the village.

This matter had already exploded last night, and today, it caused a storm. Everyone in Yunwu Village was fiercely discussing how the Guan family earned money from doing business.

After the matter was exposed, the Guan family was in the center of the storm in the village. Strange things started to happen.

At night, they returned to the mountain. As soon as they entered the courtyard, a villager knocked on the Guan family’s door.

Ye Lulu and the rest had just stepped through the door when they heard the commotion. They turned around and saw a woman in the village with a bright smile on her face.

“Hasn’t your Guan family started doing business? I saw that you were still supporting Old Aunt Xu and her family in the winter. So, you guys have earned money. The ninety-year-old woman in our family can’t get off the ground anymore. Why don’t we send her to your house to stay for a few days so that she can enjoy life before she dies? That old woman in our family is over ninety years old. She shouldn’t have many days to live. She’s about to die, so she won’t stay in your house for too long.”

The Guan family was stunned. They looked at the woman and were extremely stunned.

Ye Lulu was the first to come back to her senses. She smiled coldly at the woman and said mercilessly, “It’s still so early and you’re dreaming? It’s already dark. If you come out and walk around, don’t you have to wear your face? What are you saying? You’re so shameless.”

The woman’s smile froze at the corners of her mouth. “Didn’t your family start doing business?! You earned so much money but you don’t help the villagers at all? Didn’t you provide for Old Aunt Xu’s family? You turned hostile after earning money?”

This was what Mother Rong and the rest were most afraid of.

However, Ye Lulu had no scruples at all. She laughed coldly and said, “Are you going to take out all the money your family earned and share it with the villagers? Are the men in your family going to work for the entire village? Are you going to let the entire village live in your house?!”

Her aura was imposing.

It hit her face hard.

The woman was dumbfounded.

…

Ye Lulu would rest for two days every ten days. This was a break that Ye Lulu had set for herself according to ancient times.

After all, in ancient times, one could not do business without a day off. There had to be days off.

It was not like the modern world where days off were on Saturdays and Sundays, so Ye Lulu based them when the students were on break.

Today happened to be her day off for the month. Ye Lulu didn’t care about anything else.

The babies had not been with her during the day lately and missed her very much. Hence, Ye Lulu, Father Guan, and Old Aunt Xu each carried a baby and went out for a walk in the village.

After wandering around for a while, she met a villager. When he saw Ye Lulu, he went forward and said to her, “Ye Lulu, you guys earn so much money. You must have thought of moving out to live in the city, right?”

“Then this courtyard and these houses in the village would all be empty. No one will live there, right?!”

“Then after you guys move away, leave your courtyard and house to our family to live in. Our family has more than twenty people and many grandchildren. Our sons and daughters-in-law are squeezed on the same bed as our grandchildren. Even the two brothers, along with their daughters-in-law and sons, have to squeeze in the same house. Don’t you think you should leave your courtyard and house for us to live in?”

“That’s settled then. Your courtyard and house will be ours then.”

The villager smiled when he saw Ye Lulu carrying the baby.

The youngest son turned his head in her arms and did not open his eyes. Ye Lulu stopped in her tracks and replied,

“Only our grandchildren will inherit our house, so do you want to be our son or grandson?”

…

Old Aunt Xu and Xu Huang were helping Ye Lulu with work. The villagers were paying attention to the Guan family’s business, so they naturally saw Xu Huang helping at the docks. Old Aunt Xu also went in and out of the Guan family during the day.

Naturally, they knew that the two of them were working for the Guan family.

Amidst the discussions in the village, apart from jealousy, they were also hard to listen to. “The Guan family is amazing. They’re really doing big business and hiring people to be workers now.”

“The Guan family has set up two stalls. They’re about to live in the city soon.”

“The Guan family is really capable. They asked the villagers to work for them? They’re from the village themselves, so why did they ask the villagers to work for them? Are they now one grade higher than the villagers?”

“Oh my, they even gave out wages to the villagers. Do they think of themselves as shopkeepers?”

“They haven’t become rich yet. They’re just going out to set up stalls. Even if they are rich, they immediately act like they’re above others. Don’t they look ugly?”

“That Guan family also doesn’t know what’s good for them. When they were poor, they were extremely poor. They were just short of begging for food. From the looks of it, they were even poorer than my family. They even thought of borrowing something from my family. How laughable. In the end, they turned over and their eyes became so big that they can’t see the villagers at all.”

Ever since the news of the Guan family doing business was exposed, the discussions in the village had gradually turned nasty and unkind!

Among them, those who looked for the Guan family to take advantage of them scolded the Guan family even more when they did not succeed. Those who were poor or jealous spoke even more fervently. Most people had neither good nor bad attitudes toward this. However, as people from the mountains, the Guan family suddenly earned big money and even went down the mountain to set up a stall to do business. Everyone generally did not feel good in their hearts. When they heard someone say something nasty, they immediately had a negative attitude.
