Chapter 88: Take advantage of Li Gechang

It's a coincidence.

Just when Yi Mingxue was in trouble, Uncle Li's uncle and aunt came to visit in person.

Uncle Li is not at home, but Aunt Li brought the people here.

It was obvious that Aunt Li's face was full of reluctance.

But her man, the aunt, is really a powerful character.

Not only is he a good talker, but he is also quite knowledgeable.

Yi Mingxue looked at the pile of gifts that the middle-aged woman took out.

There was a pound of noodles, a pound of salt, a bag of sweet potatoes grown at home, and maltose bought for the little ones.

For today's rural areas, such a door-to-door gift is quite sincere.

Yi Mingxue quickly refused, "Aunt Huang, what are you doing?!"

Aunt Huang looked like she was only in her early forties, with half of her hair already white.

When talking to Yi Mingxue, her eyes were filled with tears and her face was full of sadness.

"It's all my fault that Mr. Huang was so stupid that he lost such a good job because he was greedy for a mouthful of horse urine!"

As she said this, Aunt Huang gave Uncle Huang who was standing beside her a fierce look, which frightened the little old man's thin shoulders.

"Girl, I have been urging him to stop drinking during this period. Since the last time he came back from your place, he has never had a bite of that thing again. Otherwise, I would have no shame in asking to come to your door again!"

Aunt Huang spoke sincerely, even with a hint of crying.

"You don't know how poor we are in Huangjiawan. If we can't find a good job again, let alone survive, even if we die, our bones may be eaten."

"Girl, just be kind and give our family a way to survive. The old woman is willing to work as a cow or a horse to repay your kindness."

With that said, she was about to kneel down to Yi Mingxue.

"..."

Yi Mingxue was so frightened that she quickly held her up and said, "Auntie, you can't do this!"

Second Aunt Li helped her up speechlessly, "Auntie, what are you doing? We have something to talk about. If you kneel down to Daya, aren't you going to hurt her?"

"Also, we made an agreement before we came here. When you have something to say, don't just kneel down. If you don't get it, it won't work out. Instead, it's Da Ya who bullied you."

"That's not what I meant..." Aunt Huang smiled and quickly got up again.

Yi Mingxue thought for a moment and realized that she was in urgent need of a driver.

In addition to being good at wine, Uncle Li Er is actually a good player in terms of technology and experience.

Why not, just give it a try first.

So, in front of Aunt Li and Aunt Huang, she made a three-part agreement with the youngest Huang.

"For the sake of Uncle Li and his wife, I can give Uncle Huang a chance. But I will also say ugly things up front. This work is hard. If Uncle Huang can't stand it, or if he gets into trouble because of drinking, then don't do it.

Blame me for being unkind!"

Seeing that she relented, there was no way that Huang and his wife would disobey her.

Immediately, he both bowed and nodded to her.

There is even a hint of flattery in his attitude.

Yi Mingxue didn't like this, so she found an excuse and sent a few people back.

Before leaving, he returned all the things that Aunt Huang had wrenched from her.

to be honest.

If she had not gone to pick up the car in three days, she would not be able to find a suitable driver at the moment.

She actually didn't want to use someone with a criminal record like this.

There are only zero and countless times of addiction to alcohol.

But the danger lurking behind the racecourse was too great, so it was better to put her car forward as soon as possible.

As for the youngest Huang, if he really quits and is willing to work in peace, that's all.

If something bad happens again, she won't show mercy just because his family is poor.



The third day.

Yi Mingxue took Tian Jieyuan, a young man from Longmen Village, and Huang Laoyao, Uncle Li's uncle, to Namazhuang.

Before leaving, Liu Er said he also wanted to visit.

So a few people simply took Yi Mingxue's carriage there.

The trip went smoothly.

But after arriving at the place, Yi Mingxue clearly felt something strange.

The last time I came here, there were only three or five guards in front of the village gate.

But now, it has turned into three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry.

There is also a team of armed guards patrolling the entire process.

Tian Jieyuan was a talkative person and couldn't help but ask Liu Liang who came to greet them.

"Comprador Liu, isn't this Chemazhuang? Why do you still have so many guards?"

Liu Liang paused for a moment, and then said perfunctorily, "Haha, I don't know either. Maybe there are too many horses in our farm, and we are afraid that the bandits will take notice of them, so my boss hired more nurses."

Yi Mingxue didn't think so, she seemed to say it casually.

"I'm afraid the buyers of those good goods are coming."

Liu Liang quickly laughed and revealed the matter.

When several people came to the place where they picked up the car, they met an old acquaintance.

Li Gechang, the village chief's son, actually came to order a carriage.

Yi Mingxue and others walked in.

Li Gechang realized on the spot that his nose was not a nose and his eyes were not eyes.

He even said in a sour tone: "Oh, it's so shameless for a woman to not wash and cook at home but to be out in public all day long!"

Yi Mingxue glared at Li Gechang.

He replied rudely on the spot, "It's true that the sun has come out in the west, and even poor people can get in and out of carriages."

"you!!!"

Li Gechang immediately wanted to get angry, but was stopped by a young man next to him.

Li Gechang seemed to listen to the man's words and actually suppressed his anger.

Jian Yi Mingxue bought only three ordinary yellow horses and three ordinary awning carriages.

He couldn't help but laugh out loud, "I don't think I'm very capable, but I'm just picking up junk like this that no one wants."

Yi Mingxue was too lazy to talk to him.

He ordered Tian Jieyuan, Huang Laoyao and others to check the vehicles and horses before planning to leave.

But I heard the young man next to Li Gechang whispering to Li Gechang.

"Now that Mr. Li is rich, how about buying the best horses and running the best cars?"

Li Gechang is very excited, but he still has some sense at present, "How much does the best one cost? What should I do if I don't have enough money?"

The man waved the fan in his hand, covered his lips and smiled.

"What are you afraid of? Master Lin has plenty of money. As long as you mortgage your land and house, you can borrow as much as you want."

As he spoke, the young man clapped his hands gently.

Then a young boy pulled out a rich, gorgeous and luxurious carriage.

Li Gechang's eyes nearly hit the ground.

"How much money does this...do you need?"

"It's not expensive. To Mr. Li today, it's just a drizzle." As he said that, the man stretched out his right hand and shook it.

He reported a number lightly, "With horses and carts, it's only seventy taels."

This time not only Li Gechang, but also Liu Er, Tian Jieyuan and others on the side took a deep breath.

Yi Mingxue glanced at the young man, and then took a cursory glance at the carriage.

It does look very gorgeous, with a bunch of big red silk flowers hanging around the necks of the horses in the camel cart.

However, it is more luxurious than practical.

The horse also walked lightly and had unsteady hooves.

Just like that, Yi Mingxue may not even want twenty taels.

Seventy taels, completely taking Li Gechang as the enemy.
