Joe's Farming

"Boss, please save Da Zhuang!"

Bai Lan rushed in from outside in a panic.

Qiao Yu put down the book in his hand and asked, "What's wrong?"

Gu Feng quickly dropped the work in his hands and followed: "What's wrong?"

Bai Lan said anxiously, "There was no work to do today, so Da Zhuang took the buns I made this morning and went to look for Xiao Bai. But he never came back, so I asked Su Qing to look for him. Just now, a kid came over and said that they were both detained by Xiao Bai's family, and asked the boss to rescue Da Zhuang."

The kid was the one who often hung around at the entrance of the village. He was now outside the house, his little face red from the cold.

Qiao Yu grabbed a handful of candy and stuffed it into the child's hand. The child thanked her and ran away.

Qiao Yu then asked Gu Feng to drive and called Gu Gang and the others to go together.

In the countryside, quarrels depend on the number of people involved, so when passing by Aunt Shi's house, Qiao Yu called Wen Ge'er and asked their family to come over later.

Wen Ge'er immediately entered the house: "Wang Jie, mother, something happened at Qiao Ge'er's house, we need to hurry over now."

Qiao Yu didn't expect that this would happen on the first day of the holiday. Da Zhuang and Xiao Bai? Two people who had absolutely no connection with each other.

Qiao Yu asked Bai Lan: "Sister Lan, tell me the truth, is Da Zhuang interested in Xiao Bai?"

Bai Lan nodded with a pale face. She and Su Qing had already seen it. But they believed that Da Zhuang knew his limits and did not expect that he would cause such trouble today.

"Boss, you have to trust Da Zhuang. He just wants to be good to Xiao Bai and won't do anything out of line."

Qiao Yu asked again: "Did Xiaobai tell you about his mother's family yesterday?"

Bai Lan shook her head: "Xiao Bai never talked about his family. I thought his family must be bad, otherwise he wouldn't have been beaten like that before. But he seems to be better recently. Da Zhuang said that Xiao Bai's husband seemed to have run away, so he wanted to eat meat buns this morning and give them to Xiao Bai instead of himself."

Gu Feng held his husband's hand and comforted him, "It's okay. It was the Li family who arrested them. They are Xiaobai's family members."

Qiao Yu nodded: "My mother's family shouldn't make things difficult for Xiao Bai. Maybe they are afraid of gossip in the village, so they detained Da Zhuang. We can just go over and talk it out."

Gu Feng was not as optimistic as her husband. Normally, her wife's family would not make such a big fuss about her husband. Wouldn't this obviously make things worse and ruin her brother's reputation?

The carriage soon arrived at Xiaobai's home. Qiao Yu and Gu Feng had been there before, so they were quite familiar with each other.

At this moment, the outside of the yard was filled with people from the village who came to watch the fun. Qiao Yu frowned slightly. This family was not playing by the rules.

Two members of the Li family were standing at the gate of the courtyard, not letting anyone in, nor letting Xiaobai, Su Qing, Dazhuang and others inside out.

When Gu Feng saw so many people, he said to Qiao Yu, "If you are not feeling well, don't go over there. Wait for me in the car."

Qiao Yu refused: "No, I want to see what basis they have for detaining people. If you are worried about me, protect me."

Gu Feng had no choice but to agree.

The two big men, Gu Feng and Gu Gang, protected Qiao Yu as they walked into the yard. The two members of the Li family knew who they were as soon as they saw them and automatically made way for them.

Xiao Bai was standing in front of his father, confronting him, his eyes were red, but he held back a single tear. When he saw Qiao Yu and Gu Feng coming, he immediately shouted, "Qiao Ge'er, Gu Da Ge."

"Where is Dazhuang?" Qiao Yu asked.

"Boss, I'm here." Da Zhuang's muffled voice came.

Qiao Yu looked over and saw Da Zhuang squatting on the ground with a bruised face. Su Qing was fine, just her clothes were a little wrinkled. The two were guarded in a corner, with several Li family members guarding in front of them.

Qiao Yu immediately became angry: "Who told you to hit him?"

Old Man Li heard it but pretended not to hear it, and came forward with a smile: "Brother Qiao, I heard this kid say that you are his boss. You see, he took advantage of my son-in-law's whereabouts to ruin my brother's reputation. You see, this is not good, right?"

"Dad! What nonsense are you talking about? I said Da Zhuang and I are not in that kind of relationship!" Xiao Bai shouted.

When Qiao Yu heard this, he immediately understood.

There are actually such blood-sucking in-laws in this world, who are willing to sacrifice their brother's reputation to squeeze out the last bit of benefit. It must be that the Li family saw that Xiaobai now has no husband, so they began to appear as in-laws again.

Qiao Yu crossed his arms and sneered, "Tell me? How much do you want?"

It was no secret in the whole village that Qiao Yu's family had made money in the town. Old Man Li and his family also heard that after their son-in-law ran away, Xiao Bai's life became better and better because he followed Qiao Yu. He came to Xiao Bai several times and asked him to let his other sons do any work that Qiao Yu had next time, but Xiao Bai refused.

Old man Li has many children and their life is very tight. Since he can't find a job, he asks Xiaobai to help them.

Xiao Bai sneered: "Where were you when I was about to die? I worked hard to earn my money, and I made a lot of money for you in the past. You don't have money, but you have your life."

Old man Li was almost pissed off by Xiao Bai. Later, he thought of a plan, saying that the Gu family would come to take over the house soon, and they found a new family willing to marry him. This time, they would definitely keep a close eye on the situation and give him half of the betrothal gifts. Otherwise, he would have no place to live in the winter.

Who knew that Xiaobai still refused. This morning I wanted to come over to persuade him again and scare him with Gu's family, but I saw Dazhuang coming out of Xiaobai's yard at the door.

Da Zhuang originally wanted to fight back when he saw so many people attacking, but when he heard that they were Xiao Bai's family members, he obediently did not fight back.

The Li family didn't know Da Zhuang and thought he was Xiao Bai's lover, but when they asked him, they found out that he was just a servant bought by Qiao Yu. They were going to let him go, but Old Man Li came up with a plan. Da Zhuang, a servant, had no money, but Qiao Yu did.

They wanted Qiao Yu to redeem the person. Da Zhuang would definitely not do it, and Xiao Bai would not cooperate either, so the situation was at a standstill for a while. Then Su Qing came and was also detained by the Li family.

The news spread quickly, and later there was the scene where the child informed Qiao Yu of the news. It was unclear whether this child was also deliberately released by Old Man Li to call people.

Seeing Qiao Yu being so understanding, the wrinkles on Old Man Li's face became more obvious when he smiled: "Not much, not much. Ten taels will be enough."

Da Zhuang shouted, "Boss, Da Zhuang has not done anything to offend the Gu family, so you can't extort money from him. Not a penny!"

Xiao Bai also said anxiously: "Brother Qiao, Da Zhuang and I are innocent. If we give it to him, outsiders will think that we are really having an affair! We can't give him this money!"

Qiao Yu ignored Da Zhuang and Xiao Bai, and just glanced at Gu Feng: "Husband, have you and big brother not beaten anyone for a long time?"

Old Man Li was startled when he heard this: "Brother Qiao, what do you mean by this?"

Qiao Yu smiled and said, "You want ten taels of silver, don't you? Let my husband and eldest brother have a good fight, and I'll give you the ten taels of silver."
