Ye Hongchang just noticed that the man who had been looking here was not from the village.

He remained calm, just wanting to see what the other party wanted to do.

"Ignore him, let's do whatever we need to do."

Ye Hongfu nodded and continued working.

After a while, the man left, and Ye Hongchang glanced towards the entrance of the village.

Ye Hongfu said, "Second brother, have you seen that man? What does he do here?"

Ye Hongchang shook his head, "I don't know him."

He was also beating a drum in his mind, what on earth is this man doing?

He has been wandering near the duck house, seeming to be very interested in the duck house, maybe it has something to do with this.

But now they haven’t done anything. It’s difficult to take action. They can only take one step at a time.

"Don't worry about it for now, but I have to be more careful recently. There are so many concerns here in the duck house. I'm afraid someone has evil intentions."

With so many ducks, it would be no small matter if someone poisoned them or something.

Ye Hongfu immediately took it to heart, "Don't worry, I know what's going on."

The man who was wandering near the duck house just left the village and went all the way to the county seat.

After returning, he immediately returned to his post, "Third Master, I have already found out clearly that the family's surname is Ye. They built a duck house in the village and raised seven or eight hundred ducks. The younger one looks very good. Wang The shopkeeper bought it from him.”

Hearing this, Zhao Donglai threw the tea cup and said, "I've never heard of this Ye family before. How dare you steal my business? Doesn't he know who my brother-in-law is?"

The boy said, "They are all indifferent people. They don't know their names when they see that they can make money, and they don't even ask."

Zhao Donglai said, "Just clarify it. I'll go see my brother-in-law soon. I can't let this matter go. Otherwise, how will I do my business in the future?"

The boy hurriedly said in a flattering manner, "Our magistrate loves my wife the most. The third master is my wife's most beloved younger brother. There is no reason for you not to love me."

Zhao Donglai felt the same way. His brother-in-law helped him a lot when he made this deal, otherwise it wouldn't have gone so smoothly.

After so much help, it is not less than this. If the Ye family dares to do such a big deal, it means they don't want to live anymore, and they must not make it easy for them.

Zhao Donglai went straight to find Magistrate Zheng, but saw no one, only his sister.

"Brother-in-law, what do you mean?" Zhao Donglai was a little confused. Why did he seem to deliberately not want to see him?

Ms. Zhao said, "Don't ask any more about this matter. It's not like you can't continue your business now. As long as your brother-in-law is here, there will always be a bowl of food for you in Wushan County."

Zhao Donglai was dissatisfied, "How can it be like this? I have suffered such a big loss this time. Is it possible that it will be passed without mentioning it? I have already asked people to find out. It is the Ye family who is doing bad things. My brother-in-law is Wushan The county magistrate, it’s just a matter of words to deal with them.”

Mrs. Zhao said, "I'm just a housewife. I don't understand the affairs of the officialdom. But your brother-in-law has said that this matter will remain as it is. Don't embarrass him any more. You should also be obedient and don't cause trouble."

Zhao Donglai is the youngest son of the Zhao family. She has been favored at home since she was a child, and her sisters are even more indulgent and indulgent to her.

In his opinion, this was just a small request, but he was rejected. How could he be so angry?

"Hmph, my brother-in-law is too timid. As a county magistrate, he doesn't dare to do big things. If something happens to him, I think he will let those ignorant people handle it."

When Ms. Zhao heard what he said, she grimaced, "How can you say that about your brother-in-law? Without his help, would you be able to do this business?"

Zhao Donglai was still unconvinced. Mrs. Zhao said, "Okay, as long as there is a way, your brother-in-law will not fail to help you. You don't have to worry about running out of business now. Let this matter pass like this and don't mention it again."

For Mrs. Zhao, no matter how important her maternal brothers are, they are not as important as her husband.

As long as she is dedicated to her husband's good, her life will be worry-free.

If she only helps her mother's family and does not care about her husband, then she will not be able to pick it up herself.

So when she heard her brother saying that her husband was not good, she naturally wanted to persuade him.

Zhao Donglai said, "If I have anything else to say, I will naturally listen to the eldest sister."

After he left the house, Magistrate Zheng appeared.

Zhao saluted, "Master, I have sent Dong Lai away."

Magistrate Zheng nodded, "Madam, you did a good job. It's not that I didn't help him this time, but it was a bit troublesome. It's not a loss, it's just a loss of money. Let him not take it to heart." "

Zhao smiled slightly and said, "Dong Lai is a sensible person, so naturally he will not be inconsiderate of me."

"That's good." County Magistrate Zheng thought to himself that the matter was finally solved. He was not willing to provoke the Ye family, because he thought he was not as cruel as those horse thieves.

When Zhao Donglai returned home, he became more and more angry as he thought about it.

A good business was just robbed by others, and as a result, I didn't even dare to let go of my business.

If word of this gets out, where will the honor of his brother-in-law, the county magistrate, go?

"No, we absolutely can't just let it go."

He called his confidants and ordered with a stern face, "If the Ye family dares to steal my business, it means they don't want to live a good life. Tomorrow you take people to Xiema Village to make them look good."

Not for anything else, just to relieve anger.

"They smashed the duck coop. They didn't know how to inquire before doing business. My brother-in-law has the final say in Wushan County. I made a chicken and duck business, and they dared to interfere. This time, I will treat it as a crime." They learned a lesson."

The confidant immediately agreed that cleaning up a farmhouse was no big deal, he would definitely do it cleanly and beautifully.

"Don't worry, Third Master. I will take people to Xiema Village tomorrow. I will definitely satisfy Third Master."

The ducks in the duck house were raised well, and the Ye family was very happy.

However, farming has been busy recently, and there is a lot of work in the fields. It is very busy. The family has to take care of the crops in the fields and take care of the duck house. It is really tiring.

Fortunately, the sweet potatoes can wait for another month. Now we are harvesting potatoes and other crops. It will be really busy if we all come together.

The harvest from the newly opened wasteland this year is still not ideal, but everyone in the village is quite satisfied with the output.

After harvesting crops for several days, there were still people carrying potatoes to give to the Ye family as a thank you gift.

Ye Hongchang smiled and thanked, "We also have some at home. Uncle Song can just keep it for himself. It is my duty to find grain seeds for everyone. Everyone recommended me to be the village chief. I must be able to bear this name."

The people in the village were very moved. This village chief really made the right choice.

There was so much work that Zhao Heng came to Ye's house as a guest and ended up working in the fields.

Mrs. Wang kept saying that she was treating her guests too slowly, but Zhao Heng didn't take it seriously. He wiped his sweat and said with a smile, "You're going to be alienated from me if you don't let me work."
