The Lucky Star Reincarnates to Bring Her Family Fortune!

66 The Retribution of the Wang and Sun Families

Everyone was busy talking with smiles on their faces.

At the same time, things were also progressing smoothly on Zhou Yu’s and Zhou Xiaoli’s end.

Foreman Cao brought two construction workers with him so that Wei Chiyu’s house could be built at the same time as theirs.

At this moment, Wei Chiyu and Zhou Yu were talking to Foreman Cao.

!!

Zhou Xiaoli circled around the homestead.

The builders had already started work and were now clearing the foundation.

Foreman Cao’s reputation preceded him. Zhou Xiaoli was rest assured with him watching over the construction.

However, some pleasantries still had to be said. After walking around, Zhou Xiaoli smiled and said, “Foreman Cao, I’ll have to trouble you to help me take care of things in the future. You know the situation for me and the Wei family. It’s not convenient for us to cook for everyone.”

“However, my mother made a big pot of green bean tea at home. When it is chilled, she will bring it over for everyone to drink later.”

After a few interactions, Foreman Cao had a very good impression of Zhou Xiaoli. This girl was smart and had a pleasant voice. She was very likable.

Now that he heard Zhou Xiaoli that they have prepared green bean tea for them, his liking for the Zhou family went a notch higher.

He immediately smiled and promised, “With me around, you can be free to do whatever you need to do. I’ll definitely do my best to build your house, beautiful and sturdy.”

With that, he shouted at the construction workers, “Did you hear that? The Zhou family’s young lady said that there will be green bean tea later. You have to work hard.”

When the workers heard this, they beamed with joy.

Normally, when a family wants to build a house, the nice families would cook some water for them to drink. If it happened that the owners were nasty, they would not even have water to drink.

This time, the Zhou family actually made green bean tea for them. How generous of them.

Immediately, a few lead workers smiled and shouted, “Don’t worry, young lady of the Zhou family. We brothers will guarantee that we will do the job beautifully.”

Everyone was in high spirits.

At this moment, the village chief happened to return to the village from outside. When he saw them building a house, he smiled and greeted them.

After that, he led a crippled old man into the village.

After the village chief left, Zhou Xiaoli frowned slightly. The way the old man looked at her just now made her feel strange.

However, she could not put her finger on it.

Since she could not figure it out, Zhou Xiaoli did not think too much about it. She turned to Foreman Cao and said, “Foreman Cao, I’ll leave this place to you.”

Foreman Cao immediately nodded. “You guys go ahead. Leave this to me.”

“Besides, there’s still Brother Wei here. Don’t worry.”

Wei Chiyu looked at Zhou Xiaoli, pursed his lips, and asked, “I have nothing to do recently. Do you need me to do anything?”

Zhou Xiaoli thought for a moment. “Oh, there is one.”

As she spoke, she looked around and finally pointed to a tree beside the homestead. “Dig a pit here later and make a simple stove. When the time comes, boil water for everyone to drink. It’ll save you the trouble of carrying it around.”

Wei Chiyu nodded. “Anything else?”

“That’s it.”

After giving them instructions, Zhou Xiaoli and Zhou Yu were afraid that the village chief and the Liu family would be anxious, so they hurried home.

When they reached home, they realized that everyone was already busy.

Some were washing the vegetables while others were cutting vegetables, building the stove or chopping firewood. Everyone was busy.

Seeing that Zhou Xiaoli was about to help, the village chief’s wife and Lin Xiujuan hurriedly chased her away.

“Don’t interfere. There are so many of us. We don’t need you.”

“That’s right, that’s right. You’re the brain of our operation. Don’t tire yourself out. Hurry up and rest. Just watch us do it.”

…

As a result, Zhou Xiaoli successfully became an idler.

Other than Zhou Xiaoyu, who was too young to help, everyone else in the courtyard was very busy.

Even Zhou Junjun and Liu Fengfeng were ordered to return to the village chief’s house to get the shredder.

“Aiya, since we need to cut the beetroot into thin slices, the shredder is the best equipment to use!”

Lin Xiujuan, who was the first to use the shredder, couldn’t help but sigh in contentment.

The village chief’s wife was holding a kitchen knife to slice the beetroot then. She couldn’t help but laugh. “Of course. Later, when the two boys bring my family’s shredder, I’ll be liberated.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the door was pushed open forcefully. Liu Fengfeng and Zhou Junjun ran back.

“We’re back! We’re back!”

When the two brats were together, they were very crazy.

The two of them chased each other into the courtyard.

Lin Xiujuan immediately put down her work and hurriedly ran to the door to close it.

“Why didn’t you close the door?”

As she spoke, she even locked the door, relieved that she had closed the door quickly. “We’re all busy in this courtyard so we have to close this door properly. Don’t let those despicable people who like to sneak and peek have the chance to steal it.”

Liu Yan and Zhang Lan nodded repeatedly.

“That’s right. That’s right. We have to be careful.”

As she spoke, she instructed the three children, “In the future, when you go in and out of the house, you have to close the door, understand?”

“We got it!”

...

The children responded in unison.

At this moment, Liu Fengfeng said, “Mother, we just met Sun Er on the street!”

“What!” Lin Xiujuan was immediately furious. “You met Sun Er? Why was this scourge let out of jail?!”

She was still brooding over the time when Sun Er stole from her family.

Liu Fengfeng shook his head. “No, Mother. I heard from the people on the street that they weren’t locked up in jail.”

“What is it? He escaped. I think that’s what he said, right, Zhou Junjun?”

Zhou Junjun nodded repeatedly. “Yes, yes. That’s what they said. They also said that he had gambled and was beaten up. It’s terrible.”

The two children probably didn’t hear it clearly. They half-heartedly repeated what they had heard, so everyone was confused.

Coincidentally, Zhou Xiaoli also wanted to know what Wei Chiyu had done to the two of them. She immediately said, “The two children are still young, so they can’t explain it clearly. I’ll go out and take a look.”

“Yes, yes, yes. Little Li, go out and take a look. We can’t let these two troublemakers go just like that!”

Lin Xiujuan was the first to agree when she heard that Zhou Xiaoli was going out to get information.

...

Zhou Xiaoli nodded and left.

After a while, Zhou Xiaoli returned under everyone’s anticipation.

After locking the door, she said unhurriedly, “It’s like this. Wang Gou and Sun Er did escape on the way to the magistrate office.”

“However, they owed the casino a lot of money previously. As soon as they escaped, they met the casino’s debt collectors and were arrested.”

“The people in the casino are ruthless people. If one doesn’t return their money, they may even beat the person to death. Both of them had their fingers chopped off. They were also tortured and became mentally unstable.”

“Since they have gone crazy, the casino sent them back home. At the same time, they demanded that their families return the money. It’s more than 100 taels.”

“The people from the gambling den brought thugs and emptied their houses. They even threatened to leave Wenshui County. Otherwise, they would beat them up every time they saw them.”

“At this moment, the Sun family is being forced by the thugs in the gambling den to leave the village with their silly son.”
