After her husband died, her parents came to force her to remarry

Chapter 241 2 Brothers and Sisters

Jiang Xiaohe rolled her eyes at her: "Interesting, how can it be boring? You should be thankful that you didn't spend a single penny, otherwise I would definitely ask you to return the money!"

Wu Youhua was so angry that she left cursing.

Chang Wei knew that Jiang Xiaohe had a sharp tongue, but he didn't expect that when she got angry, she would be like a little tiger.

Zhang Fu ran over at this time, and when he saw the tall horse, he couldn't stop smiling with joy.

"Even the carriage is ready."

Chang Wei looked at Jiang Xiaohe and said, "I know you guys are buying horses and carriages. Anyway, you have extra money, so I'll have someone equip you with the horses."

"Thank you." Jiang Xiaohe bowed.

Then he turned around and said to Zhang Fu: "Dad, the road at the entrance is a bit narrow. I want to make it wider."

Zhang Fu understood: "Okay, give me a few days and I'll get this done."

Jiang Xiaohe shook her head and whispered, "You don't have to do it, just watch me."

Jiang Xiaohe looked at the onlookers and said, "I want to widen the road from the village entrance to our home this afternoon. If you are free this afternoon, you can come and help. I need twenty people. As long as it is done this afternoon, I will give everyone five cents each."

As soon as this was said, many people came to sign up.

Jiang Xiaohe said to the crowd, "Those who want to sign up should follow my dad."

Everyone immediately surrounded Zhang Fu.

Chang Wei laughed: "Is this the case that money makes the world go round?"

Jiang Xiaohe snorted and said, "That should be the case. Money makes the world go round." After saying that, she also touched the horse.

Chang Wei said, "Don't worry, this horse is very docile. If you don't know how to ride a horse, I can ask Manager Chang to teach you."

"No need. I'll go to town and buy a groom tomorrow."

Chang Wei almost forgot that this woman now has money on her and will definitely not owe anyone a favor for anything that can be done with money. She is really on guard against him everywhere.

“When are you going to the county?”

"Maybe in a few days." Jiang Xiaohe replied.

"Okay, now that the horse has been delivered, I'm sure you won't treat me to a simple meal, so I'll leave now."

It sounded like she didn't understand the ways of the world. She wanted to stay for dinner, but she refused!

"Since Master Chang is so busy, I can't keep you any longer. Next time when I'm free, I'll treat you to a meal to express my gratitude."

Chang Wei looked at her. This woman was really...

"Okay. I just hope that Madam Jiang won't make me wait too long for this meal." After saying that, he jumped on the horse.

Jiang Xiaohe was speechless. Chang Wei and Manager Chang had already left on horseback.

Zhang Fu had also selected the people and started working immediately.

We started right away, digging and filling up the road, as it was not long to begin with.

Jiang Xiaohe had lunch and took a nap at noon. When she got up, she saw that the road was almost done. It was not dark yet, and it was all done. Everyone gathered at the door of Jiang Xiaohe's house, waiting to get money. Jiang Xiaohe did not delay and took out a hundred dollars and asked Zhang Fu to distribute it to everyone.

As soon as the money was divided, Zhang Fu pulled the carriage back home.

He hurried to cut grass and came back to feed the cows and horses. Although he was obviously exhausted, he was enjoying touching the horses' fur.

Wang Qiuxia pointed at him and said to Jiang Xiaohe: "Look at your father, he is obviously an extra beast in the family, but he is like an extra treasure!"

Jiang Xiaohe hugged Zhang Chuan and smiled. She could understand how men of this era felt about cattle and horses, just like how men of her era felt about cars.

Wang Qiuxia took a look and turned back to the house to prepare dinner.

Zhang Fu ran up to Jiang Xiaohe and asked, "When are you going to the county?"

"Let's do it in the next two days. If we delay for a few more days, it will be the New Year soon."

"Okay, then I'll learn how to drive a carriage in the next two days, and then I'll send gifts to the county."

"Dad, it's okay. You still have a lot of work to do in the fields. I'm going to go to the pawnshop to buy a groom, so you don't have to worry about this."

So, Zhang Fu nodded: "Okay, as long as you know what to do, I have to take good care of the vegetables in our backyard."

As he said this, he went to the backyard again.

Zhang Fu is very obsessed with farming. Now that he sees the vegetables in the greenhouse have really sprouted, he stays in the greenhouse every day, looking here and there.

Jiang Xiaohe acted quickly and went to the dental clinic in town the next day.

However, there were few people driving carriages in this dental brothel. One person was chosen, but before he could buy him, the man knelt down in front of Jiang Xiaohe and said, "Please, Madam, buy my sister as well."

Jiang Xiaohe looked at the owner of the dental clinic.

The pawnbroker boss said, "This man does have a sister, but she's mute. The two siblings have been at the pawnbroker for some time. If his sister isn't bought away, we can only sell her to a brothel after we clean her up."

It turned out to be the case.

"How old is your sister?"

"Fourteen years old, madam. Although my sister is a mute and cannot speak, she is hardworking and can cook and wash clothes. Please have mercy on her and buy her back!" After saying that, he kowtowed to Jiang Xiaohe several times, and his forehead was bruised.

Seeing that Jiang Xiaohe didn't say anything, the boss of the dental clinic waved his hand and asked someone to take the man away: "How about Boss Jiang take another look?"

Jiang Xiaohe raised her hand and said, "Don't arrest him." She turned around and looked at the owner of the pawnbroker's shop and said, "It costs eight taels of silver to buy him. What about his sister?"

Seeing that she was interested, the pawnbroker also wanted to sell the mute as soon as possible, so he said frankly: "If you include his sister, it will be twelve taels of silver directly."

"Okay, then both of you can go together."

When the man heard this, he was pleasantly surprised and immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Jiang Xiaohe: "Thank you, ma'am. Thank you, ma'am!"

The dental shop owner looked at him and smiled: "You are lucky."

As he said this, he asked someone to bring his sister out.

Jiang Xiaohe took a look and found that he had a regular appearance, but he looked too thin and frail.

"Okay, come with me to go through the formalities."

When going through the paperwork, Jiang Xiaohe realized that the man's name was Zhang Qingshan and the woman's name was Zhang Qinglian, which were the same surnames as theirs.

Taking the two to Tianxia Diyiguo, Jiang Xiaohe said to Sun Gui, "Find them each a set of clothes to change into."

Sun Gui just took a glance and turned around to prepare his clothes.

Both of them were still wearing thin summer clothes. From the moment they walked to the No. 1 Pot in the World, Jiang Xiaohe could hear the sound of their teeth chattering.

Sun Gui brought the clothes over, and Jiang Xiaohe handed one to each of them: "There is an empty room in the backyard. Go change into these clothes, and then come home with me."

Zhang Qingshan was very grateful to Jiang Xiaohe. He took Zhang Qinglian and followed Sun Gui to the backyard. After changing their clothes, Jiang Xiaohe asked them if they were hungry. They shook their heads and didn't dare to say they were hungry, but their stomachs were growling. Jiang Xiaohe gave each of them two steamed buns and a bowl of hot water: "Eat, and then we'll set off again."

The two looked at the steamed buns and hot water, and their eyes turned red.

Zhang Qingshan pushed Zhang Qinglian and said, "Eat quickly, and then go home with your wife."

Zhang Qinglian bit her lip and nodded.
