From Er Zhu's eyes, she could tell that the woman inside the house was her biggest love rival!
A cold glint flashed in Lin Qingqing's eyes. Her hands clenched into fists, and the anger in her heart grew more intense!
"It's quite chilly outside, come in."
Li Mei was unaware of Lin Qingqing's thoughts. She had just been woken by a cool breeze, and she turned sideways, warmly inviting Lin Qingqing and Wang Xiaomei inside.
Although Li Mei could also see the intentions of the two women, they were guests after all. She couldn't possibly drive them away.
Besides, she trusted that Er Zhu would handle this matter well!
The two women nodded slightly and then walked in. When Lin Qingqing reached Er Zhu's side, she suddenly heard his voice.
"Put away all your little schemes. If you want to cooperate and make money, that's fine. Don't blame me if I'm not polite about anything else!"
Er Zhu's voice was very calm, but it felt like a sudden reprimand to Lin Qingqing. She looked at Er Zhu's clear, cold eyes in shock and nodded involuntarily.
This guy was too terrifying, as if he could see through all her thoughts!
Lin Qingqing shivered, and the anger in her heart instantly vanished.
The three of them discussed in the house for a long time. They finally decided that Lin Qingqing would provide the money, Wang Xiaomei would purchase the chickens, and Er Zhu would only provide the technical expertise. They quickly signed a contract, and by then, it was already dark.
Seeing their successful cooperation, Li Mei also felt a sense of urgency. Although Er Zhu had a good impression of her, facing so many excellent beautiful women, she still felt a strong sense of pressure.
"Er Zhu, can I help you as an assistant?"
Just as the two women were excitedly envisioning the future, Li Mei, who was standing nearby, approached and cautiously tested the waters with Er Zhu.
"Of course. From now on, you'll be my personal secretary. Wherever I am, you will be too!"
Er Zhu smiled slightly and looked at Li Mei with affection as he nodded.
Seeing Er Zhu's happy expression, Li Mei's anxiety instantly disappeared, but the smiles on the faces of the other two women vanished.
Because they knew that Er Zhu was doing this precisely to cut off their hopes!
"Er Zhu, are you home?"
The woman's voice from outside broke the quiet atmosphere in the room. Li Mei lifted the curtain and looked out, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.
It was Liu Yan!
"Sister Mei, who is it?"
Just as Li Mei was about to open the door, Wang Xiaomei inside seemed to have sensed something and asked vigilantly.
"Liu Yan."
Li Mei directly stated Liu Yan's name. Before Wang Xiaomei could react, she had already gone out to open the door.
Hearing that another woman had arrived, Wang Xiaomei's face turned extremely gloomy, but she knew she couldn't show it.
Beside her, Lin Qingqing was furious. She knew Liu Yan would find out about this sooner or later, but she hadn't expected her to react so quickly!
Er Zhu, sitting opposite the two women, was somewhat speechless. He held his forehead, unsure of what to say.
Three women were already more than he could handle. Now another one had arrived. Was he not allowed to live anymore!
"Dragon King, do you have any secret techniques for warding off romance in your Heluo Divine Art?"
For the first time ever, Er Zhu requested support from the Dragon King. Unfortunately, the Dragon King was as good as dead, remaining silent.
"Liu Yan, what are you doing here so late at night?"
As soon as Liu Yan entered, Lin Qingqing frowned and complained, as if Liu Yan had intruded on her home.
"If you can come looking for Er Zhu, why can't I? Don't forget, Er Zhu and I are partners!"
Liu Yan was stunned but refused to back down. As she spoke, she sat down at the end of the kang.
She had thought only Lin Qingqing was there, but unexpectedly, there was another woman!
And this woman was not inferior in appearance, even better than her and Lin Qingqing!
Li Mei looked at the three women in the room and then at Er Zhu on the kang. Her heart was a mess.
She had lived with Er Zhu for so many years, and she truly didn't know he had such good luck with women!
"Heh, I'm also partners with Er Zhu now!"
Lin Qingqing sneered and proudly waved the contract in front of Liu Yan as if to show off.
"Miss, please watch your influence. We are all Er Zhu's partners!"
After watching for a while, Wang Xiaomei had figured things out. Before Liu Yan could speak, she was already preparing to strike first.
The atmosphere in the room immediately became tense and filled with hostility!
"You three can argue here. I'm going to check the fields."
Er Zhu knew that the three women were not easy to deal with and didn't want to listen to their meaningless chatter. He said this and prepared to go out.
Li Mei also didn't want to stay in the room, but seeing the tense situation among the three women, she couldn't leave.
She could give up anything, but not Er Zhu!
"Sister Mei, come with me."
Just as he reached the door, Er Zhu suddenly seemed to remember something. He said this and then pulled Li Mei outside.
It didn't matter how these three women argued, but Sister Mei couldn't be involved!
The three women looked at Li Mei with envy, their jealousy and anger intensifying, but they dared not speak.
Li Mei let Er Zhu pull her along with a shy expression, a sense of sweetness filling her heart.
As soon as Er Zhu reached the courtyard, he heard a chaotic uproar from inside the house. He shrugged helplessly and couldn't be bothered to manage them.
He still had many important things to do and genuinely had no mood to deal with these three women...
Accompanied by Li Mei, Er Zhu arrived at the fields. It was already eight or nine o'clock in the evening. Most people had gone home, and only Fei Tou was on night watch.
"Sister Mei, stay here for a while. I'm going to talk to Fei Tou."
Er Zhu looked around, confirmed that it was safe, and said considerately to Li Mei.
Li Mei didn't speak, but waved her hand, signaling him to go ahead with his business.
"Brother, why are you here?"
Fei Tou was dozing off when he suddenly heard footsteps. He stood up alertly, ready to make a move, but then he saw Er Zhu.
"Yes, it's been a while. I came to see you."
Er Zhu didn't mention the matter of the three women. He scanned the Chinese medicinal herbs behind Fei Tou and made a few perfunctory remarks.
"Fei Tou, do you want to learn martial arts?"
After a long silence, Er Zhu looked in the direction of the Zhao Family Martial Arts Hall, lost in thought, and asked.
Fei Tou had great strength and a sturdy build. Although he wasn't exceptionally gifted, he was still a good material for practicing martial arts.
Besides, the Zhao Family Martial Arts Hall only had a few mediocre disciples. It was time to inject some fresh blood.
"What did you say? If I go to learn martial arts, what about this land?"
Fei Tou was stunned and didn't react for a moment. Then, as if he thought of something, he looked at Er Zhu with concern.
"Don't worry about that. If you or your subordinates want to learn, go find Zhao Lin."
Er Zhu waved his hand indifferently, and with that, he turned and walked towards the fields.
"Brother, on behalf of all my brothers, Fei Tou thanks you for your guidance. From now on, you are our reborn parents!"
Suddenly, Fei Tou's voice came from behind, followed by loud sounds of kowtowing.
