177 Resolve
Liu Xiaowan held the child with one hand and covered her hair with the other hand, screaming in pain.
“Mother! Let go, I’ll go, I’ll go now!”
“Don’t think that I don’t know about the things between you and Zhao Zhan. What did you say back then? There’s no need to be afraid of signing a contract. We’ll see each other often. Zhao Zhan isn’t the kind of person who has a heart of stone.”
“First learn the formula of the fertilizer, then when the farming season is up again, we’ll pull out the seedlings and plant them with wheat. If you didn’t say that, would I have agreed to let you go find Lizheng?”
Liu Xiaowan stood up and stood at the door, not daring to go out.
At that time, in order to please Zhao Zhan, she had tried her best to deceive this old woman into agreeing. She had planned to wait for the other families to have a harvest, then say that they could indeed sell it for copper coins. This way, she would not have to pull out the seedlings.
At that time, no matter what, she would be the first one in the village to agree to sign the contract, and Zhao Zhan would definitely look at her in a different light.
She didn’t know what was going on behind the scenes!
The other people’s seedlings were not as fresh as Yang Dashan’s, but they were just as energetic. However, the seedlings in her field were yellow and dry!
Even if she didn’t pull it out, it would be difficult to get a harvest. In addition, this damned old woman was urging her so hard that she had no choice but to grit her teeth and pull the seedlings out.
She hadn’t thought of a reason yet, but the person had already come to their door!
“If this matter can’t be resolved, you can get out of our house!”
Dalei’s mother snatched the child from her arms and pushed Liu Xiaowan into the courtyard. Then, she slammed the door from the inside.
“You must be Dalei’s wife?”
Lizheng already knew what kind of person Yang Dalei was, so he wasn’t surprised to see Liu Xiaowan coming out, “It’s fine if it’s you. Anyway, you were the one who signed the contract.”
Liu Xiaowan slowly moved over and looked up at Zhao Zhan with tears in her eyes.
“Zhao Zhan, I didn’t pull out those seedlings. I just didn’t plant them. They fell on their own.
“I’m a woman who has to take care of my child and mother-in-law every day. I’m the one who’s busy with everything at home. I didn’t know that your precious seedlings needed to be watched all the time to grow well.”
Liu Xiaowan’s heart was beating like a drum. After she finished speaking, she remembered that her hair had just been brushed. She hurriedly combed them to have a shy look.
“I don’t keep an eye on it all the time. I went to your family’s land to take a look. The beans were already uprooted and thrown on the ground.”
Zhao Zhan’s expression was unreadable. “The contract clearly states that if the other party maliciously harms the beans, your family’s land must be given to me for a year.”
“Zhao Zhan, please!”
“Don’t call me that. My surname is Zhao, and your husband’s surname is Yang. I have no relationship with you,” Zhao Zhan said with a serious expression. He frowned and looked at the other party. “If you agree, sign a new contract, and your family’s land will not be used for planting this year.”
“This is a big deal…” Liu Xiaowan looked at Lizheng for help, “Lizheng! You can’t just watch me walk down the path of no return. You know that my mother-in-law won’t agree to it. She’ll beat me to death!”
Yang Lizheng was really annoyed.
Liu Xiaowan always wanted to stir up trouble.
“There’s no need to ask him, if you can’t make the decision then ask the person in charge to come out, if you don’t agree then I’ll have to trouble others to send you to see the chief right now, I’ll pay for the ox cart.”
Zhao Zhan was thinking about his lover at home, all alone. It was getting late, and he didn’t know if she was hungry. The house was new, and he didn’t know if she would feel cold. He was in a hurry to go back.
