In the days that followed, the whole family mobilized to top all the cotton. After topping, the cotton would bloom more, bear more fruit, and produce more.
A dozen or so people, except for the third aunt who was cooking at home, all went to battle, and they worked hard day and night for twelve or three days before finally finishing all the cotton topping.
During this period, Lao Wangtou from Xiaowang Village sent someone again, saying that a batch of ducklings had hatched, please Lian Fangzhou to go and have a look.
Lian Fangzhou was very happy and took Lian Ze, A Jian and Lian Fangqing with him.
The old Wangtou said that this time the hatching time was not well grasped, only more than 120 duck eggs hatched successfully out of 200 duck eggs, and he was going to try again.
The result was beyond Lian Fangzhou's expectation. Lian Fangzhou was very happy to see the fluffy goose-yellow ducklings the size of a palm. He picked fifty of them away, and let Old Wangtou handle the rest.
Fifty ducklings were handed over to Mrs. Li and Zhang Xiuer to raise them, and they made duck coops and locked them behind the living area of the compound. Now that the ducklings are still young, they can't bear cold water, so they are raised in pens in the backyard. After raising them for ten or so days, they can go to the stream by the village to look for food and stock them.
Zhao Rujun was almost so angry that Zhao San and others failed to set fire, and his family lost his wife and lost his army.
What made her most angry was that her father, who had only praised her since she was a child, even taught herself a lesson for this matter!
And those family servants in the mansion whom she relied on as confidantes, all of them were terrified and took the contract of prostitution held in Lian Fangzhou's hands seriously. I can see my whereabouts closely, and if there is any trouble, someone will report to my father, and my father will speak hard to me...
Zhao Rujun's teeth itch with hatred!
The more she hates, the more she has to do something to vent the hatred in her heart, otherwise, she will be suffocated to death!
She was so angry by Lian Fangzhou that she lost her mind, and she only wanted to get revenge, and only wanted to utter this bad breath. Although Mr. Zhao took strict precautions, after all, Zhao Rujun has managed the business for so many years, and she is not a woman raised in a deep boudoir. People in the house cannot use it. , it is very easy for people outside the house to use it if she wants to use it.
So, when several punks who were injured by the traps and their legs were sent to Mr. Zhao together with their confessions, Mr. Zhao was so angry that he gave Zhao Rujun a hard lesson.
At the same time, Ergouzi, Erliang, Toad, and Manzi left Yuhe County silently, and there was news that they left Yuhe County because they offended Zhao Rujun, the eldest lady of the Zhao family. She was almost murdered by Ms. Zhao, so she had to leave her hometown.
As soon as this matter spread, everyone was in an uproar. Zhao Rujun's reputation plummeted!
As the saying goes, groundless rumors may not be without reason, and Er Gouzi and the others were indeed involved with Zhao Rujun. Although Mr. Zhao repeatedly explained that their disappearance had nothing to do with his daughter, he still couldn't come up with convincing reasons.
Those members of the Zhao family who coveted their family property began to move around again, and the clansmen intervened in this matter on the grounds that the reputation of the Zhao family was damaged, which almost drove Master Zhao to a dead end. In the end, it cost countless money and contacts, and caused a lot of trouble, before it was perfunctory.
However, Zhao Rujun blamed Lian Fangzhou for everything, without feeling that he was at fault.
Mr. Zhao was completely disappointed in her, and put her under house arrest, claiming to recuperate from her illness.
Zhao Rujun was so stubborn that he even went on a hunger strike, but Mr. Zhao remained indifferent. Then Zhao Rujun panicked, asked his mother to help him, and knelt down in front of his father begging for forgiveness.
Master Zhao was not moved at all, and said indifferently: "Father has thought about it, you are a girl, and you should be pampered in a deep boudoir. Father really regrets it. He should not have taught you business at the beginning, and he should not have allowed you Show your face outside! It's not too late now, you should obediently learn female red embroidery and manage the inner house! This is what a girl should learn!"
Zhao Rujun's face turned pale immediately, and he hurriedly said: "Father! You are only my daughter! If I don't share the burden for you, who will share it for you! Are you willing to share your hard-earned family business with those white-eyed wolves in the clan?" What! I am your daughter, and I should inherit and manage all of this!"
"Don't worry about that," Mr. Zhao glanced at her quietly, and said, "Father thinks and thinks again and again, this is too difficult for you and hard work for you! Father has already decided to accept another three concubines, regardless of appearance, It doesn't matter where you come from, as long as you have a good child! If after three years you still can't have a little brother for you, dad will adopt a child in the clan."
"No! No! I don't agree!" Zhao Rujun screamed, her eyes wide open in disbelief.
Even Mrs. Zhao turned pale, and looked at Master Zhao in surprise, her eyes turned red, and she bowed her head in silence.
Master Zhao waved his hand and sighed wearily: "I didn't want to say it at first, but since you asked today, I will say it! Go back to your yard and have a good rest!"
How could Zhao Rujun be willing, his mind was dizzy from the sudden rage, and he shouted angrily: "Father! You can't do this! You can't do this! Are you worthy of my mother!"
Master Zhao couldn't help being a little angry, and said with a sullen face: "Who are you talking to? Is there any daughter like you!"
He looked at Xuanran's wife who was about to cry and held back, his heart softened, and he said, "You don't have to worry about this! You have a little brother, and your mother and I will have someone to rely on when we grow old! Whether it is born of a concubine or adopted It will be recorded in your mother's name and raised by your mother herself! Don't go down!"
When Madam Zhao heard what her husband said, she immediately felt relieved, and hurriedly tugged Zhao Rujun and said in a low voice: "Jun'er, stop making trouble! Go, go with mother!"
Zhao Rujun screamed and struggled like crazy, and yelled angrily. Mrs. Zhao had no choice but to call the maids and women to join the battle, and dragged her daughter down forcibly.
Mr. Zhao let out a long sigh, shook his head, and immediately ordered the housekeeper to send someone to find out where there is a woman who is fertile and ready to take a concubine.
In the boudoir, Zhao Rujun lay on the bed and cried in a mess, all the maids were kicked out, only Mrs. Zhao was beside her to persuade her. How can I persuade you!
"Mother! Dad, how could he do this! How could he treat me like this! Didn't he agree that my family's property would be inherited by me? How could he keep his word!"
Finally, Zhao Rujun cried enough, and finally opened her mouth with sobs. She raised her head and looked at Mrs. Zhao with tears in her eyes, her moist eyes were shining with a scorching light: "Mother, why don't you help me talk! I am Your daughter! Don't tell me you're just watching Dad pass on the property to others!"
