Chapter 234： Difficulties

Chapter 234 Difficulties with each other

Jiaojiao bent down to support Miao Miao's front paw, and asked in a low voice: "Miao Miao, is my father and uncle okay?"

"The people inside didn't do anything. They are discussing now, but your father and the others will definitely not agree, so those people will definitely come to make trouble." Bai Miaomiao replied.

Jiaojiao frowned slightly, thinking about how to solve it, Erya walked over and said, "Jiaojiao, why did this cat get here, let's take it out to find mother first."

Erya was about to hug the underground Miaomiao while talking, but Bai Miaomiao dodged and slipped behind Jiaojiao, it was not used to being hugged by people other than Jiaojiao.

"Hey, why are you running?" Arya chased after her again.

squeak —

The door next to it opened, and the first person to come out was a middle-aged man in a blue robe.

The man is not tall, with a well-built body, a round head, small eyes, a mustache, and a shrewd look.

I saw him raising his hand and waving, and the guard guarding the door saluted respectfully and retreated to the back.

Mu Kuan and Wang Zhuangzhi walked out, their faces somber and a little ugly.

Seeing them, Butler Song straightened his sleeves and said slowly, "I'll only give you two days, and you won't wait until it's over."

Wang Zhuangzhi frowned and was about to speak. Mu Kuan passed him and said to Steward Song, "Walk slowly."

Song Butler's expression turned cold when he heard the words, and he shook his sleeves and snorted softly, "If you don't eat the toast and take the fine wine, if you don't leave on your own after two days, you're asking for trouble."

After finishing speaking, he took the people away.

"Is there any reason? How can they be so arrogant and domineering? There is no reason not to let people do business!" Wang Zhuangzhi said angrily.

Jiaojiao and Erya rushed to Dad's side, and the nearby people watching the excitement also came over, and said one after another:

"Man, you are new here. I don't know that the Song family has always been domineering. I don't know how many people have been beaten by them here. You can't lose your life even if you earn money. You should find a way out quickly."

"Well, the Song family can't be messed with. I heard that the fifth lady of the Song family drank tea with Prince Jing a few days ago. Seeing that they can marry into the royal family, the Song family is even more prestigious."

"That is, how can we ordinary people fight against these people..."

Everyone tried to persuade, without exception, that the Song family could not be messed with.

Jiaojiao was hugged by her father, and she could clearly see that her father looked a little disappointed, and the helplessness in her uncle's eyes seemed a bit haggard.

Mu Kuan sighed and looked up at the sky, his eyes became hot.

The business at the wharf took more than half a month, and it was hard to make a name for it these days, but I didn't want to encounter this.

There are still so many boatmen under his command. Giving up means that all the money he invested in before will not be able to return to the original, and he has signed documents with more than a dozen boatmen, and he has to pay monthly salary... The Song family is putting him on a dead end Forced.

Liu Zhihua managed to squeeze in with the crowd. Seeing that the head of the house and her brother-in-law looked tired and did not speak, she took Jiaojiao and frowned and asked, "What's going on? Why did those people leave again?"

Mu Kuan clenched his fists and sighed, and suddenly he didn't have the face to tell his elder sister. After all, he was the one who promised to make money at the beginning. If this business really disappeared, the two thousand taels from their family might not be enough now.

Wang Zhuangzhi shook his head, pulled his wife aside and explained in a low voice:

"Brother-in-law said that the business has been good these two days, and a client from another family came to cooperate with him. As a result, the Song family thought it was us prying their customers, so they brought people to make trouble, and asked them to withdraw from the dock within two days."

When Liu Zhihua heard this, her cheeks were trembling with anger, and regardless of the people around her, she cursed directly: "These people are simply hooligans! Why should we be asked to withdraw? If they dare to make trouble again, we will report to the authorities."

Niang's voice was too loud, Jiaojiao rubbed her ears, nodded and said softly: "Yes, we are not afraid of him."

At worst, she would take advantage of the night to clean them up, to see if they dared to come to find trouble.

Wang Zhuangzhi shook his head helplessly when he heard what his wife and children said. He often said that the people do not fight with officials. Now they have money, but how can they fight against officials?

Brother-in-law's business is probably impossible.

He said: "Forget it, let's discuss it after going home."

Mu Kuan was also a little at a loss. He took off the scarf on his body and prepared to go home with his brother-in-law and the others.

People who were carrying packages in the warehouse saw Mu Kuan was about to leave, and one of them hurried over.

After hesitating for a moment, the dark-skinned man clenched his fists, opened his mouth a few times, and said, "Brother Kuan, we trusted you at the beginning, so we followed you wholeheartedly. Now, although we know that you are in trouble, we are all procrastinators." People with family and mouth, you can't cheat on the paperwork you signed with us."

Mu Kuan sighed when he heard this, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "Don't worry, no matter what the storeroom is, there will be no shortage of what should be given to you."

The man breathed a sigh of relief, scratched his head in embarrassment, and finally no longer had to worry about it, he cupped his fists and said, "Thank you Brother Kuan, then I'll go and tell my brothers."

Mu Kuan nodded, "OK."

Afterwards, the group returned to the small courtyard of the Mu family.

Liu Zhihua originally wanted to go to Ancheng to find Yingniang, but she didn't think about it. Her brother-in-law was frowning, her sister wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and she accompanied her.

"The Wang family now has King Jing backing him. King Jing is the prince and grandson of the royal family. If we insist on fighting against him, he will make Cheng'er unable to stay in the academy. I..." At this point, Mu Kuan rubbed his fists and his eyes were red.

If it weren't for Cheng'er, he really wanted to use his old life to fight them.

Seeing that her husband was crying more and more, Xiuhua wiped it with a handkerchief, and comforted her: "There is nothing fair in this world, and we can't fight against the whole family. At worst, we won't do this business. Can pay off."

Liu Zhihua was afraid that they would be under too much pressure, so she echoed and said, "I really can't do this business, and we will help pay off the debt, so you don't have to worry about it."

Xiuhua heard that she felt sorry for her sister, and her tears became more and more violent.

"Sister, I haven't repaid the two thousand taels that invited you to join the gang earlier. I will find a way to repay the money after I settle the money from the boatman first." Mu Kuan bowed his head and said, feeling guilty in his heart.

Wang Zhuangzhi on the side said: "Since you are in a group, how can you pay it back? We share the money if we make money, and we lose money together if we lose. We share the blessings and the hardships."

Mu Kuan, a man of eight feet, heard this, his eyes were dazed, and he held his head with sobs.

He naturally knew what two thousand taels represented, and the brother-in-law didn't even have a word of blame, so he just erased it.

The more this happened, the more guilty he felt.

When Liu Zhihua heard what the head of the family said, she couldn't help but feel a little moved. She hugged her sobbing sister, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

Two thousand taels of silver is enough for an ordinary family to be rich for a lifetime, and she is very happy that the head of the family can have such a magnanimity.

People are alive, money is dead, and I will earn it back by helping my sister's family in the future.
