After being exiled, relying on space to pamper the chief assistant

Ye Zhen was indeed moved by Manager Liu's suggestion, but she hesitated for a moment, but Xie Yunshu beside her declined.

"Thank you for your kindness, but this matter is our own family's business and cannot be involved with Wangyue Tower."

Although Xie Yunshu's words were very polite, his attitude contained a bit of determination.

Hearing this, Manager Liu just smiled and was not dissatisfied.

He was willing to say that he was willing to help Ye Zhen solve this problem just because Fu Heng had stated that he would try his best to have a good relationship with her.

He had already stated his position, but he didn't really care whether the other party was willing to accept it or not.

"It is indeed trouble-free to send someone to an official, but when it comes to refugees like us, people who come to the county government won't pay much attention to it."

Aunt Huang, who came over after hearing the news, frowned. She heard about the brick theft. As the villager who had the best relationship with Ye Zhen's family in the village, she consciously wanted to give them advice.

"Why don't we give them a good beating first so that they can remember it for a long time, and then we can go to Xingnan Village and ask for an explanation from them together!"

As soon as this proposal came out, it immediately aroused the approval of many villagers.

Although their village is not a regular village and does not have actual people in charge, it does not tolerate silence either.

They were not happy that people from other villages were bullying them.

But Ye Zhen still didn't agree with them beating people, and she frowned and couldn't think of any other solution.

The people on the ground looked pitiful, with bruises all over their bodies. It looked like they had been taught a lesson.

There are just a few blue bricks on the left and right, so it doesn't really cost a person half his life, right?

Just as she was hesitating, another group of people walked in from the door.

The leader was the manager of the brick kiln. As soon as he arrived, he heard that the brick thief had been caught and quickly brought people over to check the situation.

After all, green bricks are closely related to their livelihood. If the brick thief is really caught, they, the brick kiln people, can also breathe a sigh of relief.

"Mrs. Xie, I heard that you caught the brick thief?"

After struggling to squeeze through the villagers into the central circle, the manager of the brick kiln wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked Ye Zhen.

"Ah...right."

Ye Zhen, who was called out again, followed the voice with some confusion. Only then did she realize that her yard was full of people.

There were already more than a dozen people crowded into the relatively spacious courtyard. Most of them were villagers who came over after hearing the news. The rest were people from Wangyue Tower and Brick Kiln.

The manager of the brick kiln who squeezed to the front glanced at the miserable men lying on the ground. After carefully distinguishing them, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, these people are not from the brick kiln, otherwise it would have been a big deal this time.

He didn't know what the background of Ye Zhen's family was, but just the protective attitude given by Wangyue Tower was enough to make the brick kiln wary.

Although Wangyue Tower has only taken root in this small barbarian county for less than a year, the power behind it is so powerful that even the owner of the brick kiln has heard of it, so no one dares to provoke it.

It was also because Ye Zhen was backed by a big tree to enjoy the shade, and Ye Zhen was invisibly protected by Wangyue Tower, that local forces like Brick Kiln did not dare to use strong tactics against them.

"Just catch it! I wonder how you want to deal with it? According to the past rules of our brick kiln, it will directly cost one hand."

"It doesn't have to be so cruel..."

Hearing that he was going to kill people as soon as he opened his mouth, Ye Zhen's head was full of black lines and she quickly refused.

The few men lying on the ground thought they were dead, or at best with an arm or a leg, but when they heard someone taking the initiative to reduce their punishment, they hurriedly approached Ye Zhen.

"My lady! You are really kind-hearted! Please let us go, and we will definitely catch that Wang Mazi back to you!"

It was still the thin man who was crying and begging for mercy, but in response to his actions, Ye Zhen still took a step back without revealing any trace, avoiding him.

The moment she stepped back, Xie Yunshu's broad back spread out in front of her, interrupting the thin man's movements.

The blocked man received Xie Yunshu's warning look and immediately did not dare to move, sitting on the ground for a while.

At this moment, a surprised voice came out:

"Wang Mazi?!"

Everyone's eyes were immediately attracted to the owner of the voice, and they looked at each other curiously.

No one present had heard of Wang Mazi's name, and the person who spoke was naturally the manager of the brick kiln who had just arrived.

This steward is also pitiful. He was relieved just now, but suddenly brought it up again when he heard the name.

"Do you know Wang Mazi?"

Looking at the brick kiln manager with some doubts, Ye Zhen seemed to understand something when she saw the man's constipated expression.

At this moment, the manager of the brick kiln felt that his teeth were sore. He glared at the people lying on the ground angrily, and then slowly explained.

"To tell you the truth, the person who asked you for a reward a few days ago is named Wang Mazi..."

The co-authorship of this matter is still related to their brick kiln!

Also, except for the people from the brick kiln, who would have the brains to steal a few heavy green bricks? It’s not a valuable thing!

"As soon as I got back that day, I kicked him out of the brick kiln. I couldn't be sure whether the Wang Mazi they were talking about was the same person."

Even though things have come to this, the manager of the brick kiln still has a glimmer of hope, hoping in his heart that it is just two people with different names.

Unfortunately, God did not hear his prayer. As soon as he finished speaking, the leading thief echoed excitedly:

"Yes, yes! That's him! My cousin Wang Mazi used to work in the county brick kiln. He suddenly returned to the village a few days ago and asked me to bring people to steal the green bricks! He also said that as long as I steal the green bricks back, he will

There is a way to sell it!"

"This, this...the brick kiln doesn't know about this!"

For fear of being dragged into the trap, the manager of the brick kiln quickly waved his hand at Ye Zhen to excuse himself.

The bricks he sold were stolen back by his subordinates and sold a second time. If this were to spread, it would be more than just a dereliction of duty on his part.

By then, I am afraid that the reputation of the entire brick kiln will be damaged!

Seeing that he was trying his best to prove his innocence, Ye Zhen still chose to trust the brick kiln manager and comforted him:

"It's okay, I believe you."

After saying that, she turned to look at Xie Yunshu, seeking his opinion.

From the bottom of her heart, Ye Zhen didn't want to see the villagers' hurtful behavior, so she could only let them give her advice.

Seeing her look for help, Xie Yunshu was stunned for a moment, then coughed slightly to cover up his gaffe.

"A few of them were locked up for a night and were injured, so let's forget about it. However, the stolen things still have to be returned."

"Absolutely! Those two bricks are at Wang Hu's house, and we will deliver them to you right away!"

As soon as they heard that the other party was willing to let them go, several people quickly expressed their opinions. Wang Hu, who was betrayed, could only grit his teeth and remain silent.

Now that things have come to this, he doesn't dare to stir up trouble, so he can only suppress his anger.

Xie Yunshu made a decision, and the surrounding villagers had no choice but to stop talking, but some people still felt that their family was too kind.

"Thank you Madam for your kindness and sparing these thieves!"

The villagers were not stupid either. It could be seen that Ye Zhen strongly opposed the use of force, so Xie Yunshu took the initiative to let a few people go.

Although they are all kind-hearted people, it does not mean that they will let others bully them.

In such a feudal background, if something is stolen, it is very normal to teach the thief a lesson.

It is rare for people like Ye Zhen to be unwilling to harm others excessively.

However, everyone was grateful to Ye Zhen and would not question her decision.

As the master, I don’t want to go into details, so why should they, the bystanders, care about it?

Once the matter was over, Lin Bin loosened the bonds of those people and let them leave.

But some villagers were still worried about them and kept watching people leave their village before giving up.

Things returned to normal order. Today, because of this matter, too much time was wasted, so Ye Zhen had to quickly deal with the matters at Wangyue Tower, and then organize people to cook for the workers.

It has long been rumored that the brick theft was related to Wang Mazi from the brick kiln. How dare the workers complain about the delay in meal time?

Even if there is resentment, it is only directed at Wang Mazi, the rat shit that spoiled the whole pot of soup!

After lunch, the manager of the brick kiln approached Ye Zhen hesitantly and smiled apologetically.

Even though the other party had previously expressed that he believed him and would not hold the brick kiln responsible, the manager of the brick kiln, who was quite well versed in the world, knew clearly that even if Ye Zhen did not express his position on the matter, the brick kiln would still have to give her an explanation.

After all, Wang Mazi was born in a brick kiln. If it weren't for his request for reward and being kicked out of the brick kiln, how could this series of things have happened?

"Mrs. Xie, regarding the matter of the brick thief, you can rest assured that our brick kiln will definitely kidnap Wang Mazi and hand it over to you."

The manager of the brick kiln did not forget the look that manager Liu gave him when he left, which contained a heart-stopping meaning.

The manager of Wangyue Tower has a much higher status than the manager of this small brick kiln.

Manager Liu was a confidant of Fu Heng, the manager of Wangyue Tower. He came from the rich and prosperous Jiangnan.

The manager of the brick kiln was not afraid of him, but of Wangyue Tower behind him.

When this matter was suddenly mentioned again, Ye Zhen was stunned for a moment, then frowned, but did not refuse the other party's offer to take responsibility.

She had no impression of Wang Mazi, and the request for reward that day had long been forgotten in her mind, so there was nothing she could do about the man behind the scenes.

Ye Zhen does not deny that she is sometimes too soft-hearted and does not want to see bloody scenes. But this does not mean that she will easily spare everyone who offends her. She must suffer the punishment they deserve!

Since a brick kiln offered to help her solve this difficult problem, she naturally would not refuse.

After smiling and nodding, she comforted the other person gently.

"It's okay, I'm still confident in your brick kiln!"

After receiving this reply, the brick kiln manager breathed a sigh of relief and left with a smile.

At this time, several men also endured the pain in their bodies and carried back the two blue bricks they had stolen.

They were not interested in the green bricks. Even if they stole them back, they would just pile them in the yard and hide them with some straw.

So when I returned it, the blue bricks were all intact, not even a scratch.

They also wanted to sell it for a few bucks, but they didn't expect to find themselves in the current situation. They were really asking for trouble.

After taking the green bricks away, Ye Zhen also followed the agreement and did not embarrass the others and let them go generously.

Life has returned to its previous busy state, and she has to take a group of women to continue busying with dinner.

Not long after the few people left, when Ye Zhen was leading a few women to choose vegetables, a neatly dressed young man walked in from the door.

"Is Mrs. Xie at home? My wife is here to visit."

The young man spoke very politely, but he really didn't recognize the woman in the yard.

Hearing this, Ye Zhen quickly raised her head and looked over doubtfully.
