Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lizheng immediately expressed his stance and told them not to worry. If someone did this, he would come to the workshop and take that person away to make them compensate for their wrongdoings.
This would be a long-term job with a stable income every month. Who wouldn’t want to be hired?
However, Lizheng had a scale in his heart. Every time there was a rare opportunity to work and earn money, he would first stick to the people in the villages who were usually down-to-earth and willing to work.
In the past, the Lizheng did not have many opportunities to work, so everyone did not care much about the Lizheng’s steelyard. Now, because of Xue Da t s wealth, Lizheng always had many opportunities to give people work. Those who wanted to work in the villages naturally had to consider the steelyard in Lizheng’s heart first. Only when they reached the standard could they have a job. Therefore, more and more people in the villages were living peacefully and steadily.
Xue Erfu and Xue Dafu went to Lizhengs house to talk about hiring people, while Jiang Yue and Xue Yan went to Xue Da!s house.
Ever since Dagui returned to work in the shop, Xue Gouzi had come to live with their grandfather. Xue Gouzi, Xue Dabao, and Xue Xiaobao were about to start school.
They all spent the Lantern Festival at home and started school on the 16th of the first month.
The private school they were studying in had the same opening time as the Shengming Academy.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan tried their best not to mention their aunt. Although
their grandfather was quite relieved of their aunt now, every time he remembered that their aunt was still stuck in with that family, he couldn’t help but feel sad and sigh.
Xue Gouzi, Xue Dabao, and Xue Xiaobao had also been warned not to mention Xue Daxi in front of Xue Da.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were at their grandfather’s place. On the other hand, Xue Daxi had just finished lunch and went out to visit Du Hongguo again. She even grabbed a few handfuls of melon seeds and carried them with her.
She had bought these melon seeds before the new year and asked Du Shanqiang to bring them back.
It didn’t cost Du Shanqiang a single cent.
Everything new was bought by her! She also gave it to Du Shanqiang because she didn’t know about the situation at home.
Grandma Du stomped her feet in anger and refused to let Xue Daxi in. In the end, no one listened to her. Even though it had been like this every day for the past few days, Grandma Du still stayed the same.
After a while, Du Shanqiang arrived home.
Grandma Du was immediately delighted and quickly went up to greet him. “Since you’ve only just come back, that means Sifu must have taken you back.
How was working in the shop again?”
Du Shanqiang stammered and finally said, “l couldn’t even enter the shop, so how can 1 get my job back?? Mother, it’s not like you don’t know how far our house is from the shop. I walked back by foot, of course it would take me a long time.”
When He Erniu heard this, she quickly came over and asked, “Shanqiang, you haven’t had lunch yet. Wait here, let me heat up your food for you.”
As she spoke, He Erniu went to work.
Du Shanqiang felt that his concubine was really virtuous.
He couldn’t help but ask his mother, “Where’s Hongguo?”
“She brought Hongguo to visit them again and took away many of my melon seeds!” Grandma Du looked pained.
Du Shanqiang sighed. He was exhausted. After a while, he said dejectedly, “Mother, why don’t 1 divorce Daxi? I feel terrible living like this…”
“What nonsense are you talking about? What did your father and 1 tell you? You’re doing this again! My dear, look at our son! He’s doing it again!’ Grandma Du began to shout.
Grandpa Du quickly came out of the house..
