Chapter 236 Accusation
"Li Luo, your family is so rich. The children in our village all want to drink milk to grow taller. You are the only one in the village who has this ability. Why don't you pay for buying a cow?" Erniu's mother asked first.
"That's right, that's right. You drink milk every day, and your children are plump and white, and they are very tall. Our children are so envious."
As soon as Erniu's mother opened her mouth, many people responded immediately.
"Luoluo, you can't be so stingy. When I first worked at your house, you instigated Xiaoling to drive me away, and you even shortchanged me one month's salary."
"Until now, your family has refused to give us a cow. If it were Xiao Ling, for the sake of the children in the village, he would definitely agree to buy a cow for our village."
"That's right, Director Xin said that if you want to buy a cow, he will let you be the deputy director. You really don't know how to appreciate it. I have given you a position, but you don't want it."
"If it were me, I would be so happy to have this position!"
Everyone started talking at once.
"Oh, Aunt Wang, you said that we gave you less money, right? Then we should do the math. How little meat did we have in the first place? Brother Ling has all the evidence. I want Brother Ling to do the math to see how much we owe you."
Upon hearing Li Luo's evidence, Wang Xiumei quickly retracted her head, fearing that Li Luo's gaze would fall on her again.
"Mother Erniu, you said that if Xinlu becomes an official for me, I have to buy a cow? Then I don't want to be an official. If you want to be one, why don't you just buy a cow for the village?"
"Mother Shunzi, you said that if Brother Ling were here, he would agree to buy a cow for the village. Is that true? I will go back today and ask Brother Ling where he got the private money."
"You!" Several people were so angry at Li Luo's sharp words.
"Director Xin, you see, this woman has very sharp teeth. We just want a cow, but we gave her an official position, and she is still so ungrateful."
Several women pushed Xin Lu out, as if they had found their backbone. Xin Lu didn't expect that these people had such poor fighting ability. They were dealt with by Li Luo in just a few words. What should she say to maintain her image?
"Alas, how can we say that Li Luo is not from our Wanlong Village? Even if she married into the Wanlong Village, she is still not on the same page with the Wanlong Village."
"She is actually in charge of Brother Ling's private money. She looks like a powerful person. I think we can't beat Li Luo because she doesn't consider Wanlong Village at all!"
After hearing what Xin Lu said, Li Luo sneered in her heart, and she almost wanted to applaud Xin Lu's shamelessness: "Director Xin, you said you are from Wanlong Village, right? You are also the director of the Women's Department, so you should lead by example."
"I don't want the position of deputy director, but you don't want to give up your position as director. Why don't you buy this cow for everyone?"
"What do you think of this proposal? After all, Director Xin hasn't done anything for our village since she became the director of women's affairs. To be honest, I don't accept it."
"If Director Xin can buy a cow, then I admire her. I really can't be the director of the Women's Department. She just has a bigger vision than me."
Li Luo looked at Xin Lu with a smile, and complimented Xin Lu.
The women immediately turned their eyes to Xin Lu, and suddenly they were at a loss for what to do. All they wanted was a solution. As for who would buy the cow, as long as it wasn't them, it would be fine, but not allowing them to drink milk was not acceptable.
"Oh, by the way, doesn't Erniu's family have a dairy cow? How about Erniu's mother, you can donate your dairy cow and let everyone get milk for free. You can also get the title of women's director, which I think is great." Unexpectedly, Erniu's family got anxious: "Our dairy cow can't even provide milk for our own children, so where can we get milk to feed other children? And for free? You can drink it if you want. A bowl of milk is fifty cents!"
After these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.
Li Luo laughed at the side and said, "Look, none of you are willing to pay, so why do you force us, the Ling family, to pay? Isn't our money earned bit by bit by ourselves?"
"But, our Lao Zhang works for you."
"Our man is here too. If it weren't for our man, I don't think you can run this farm!"
"Yes, based on the money you earn, it is also our contribution, so you should pay for it!"
"In that case, the Zhang family and the Wu family don't have to work in our farm anymore."
Suddenly, a cold male voice came from behind the crowd.
They turned around and saw that it was Ling Zhuoqun! Now, they were silent again.
Although they threatened Li Luo like this, this was their job! It was close to home, the salary was high, and they could build a western-style house if they saved enough money.
If they lose their jobs suddenly, they won't be able to find such a good job with their education and income.
"Alas, I was originally thinking that my sister Qi and I were still in need of someone to manage our clothing store, so I thought about finding a few young girls from our village to take over. Now it seems that it would be better to pay more money and find young girls who can endure hardships."
When Li Luo said this, the women were even more shocked: "The business of the clothing store in town? That's actually Li Luo's too. When did the couple become so profitable?"
What kind of magic power does their family have that not only the men can make money, but the women can make money too. Why do all the good things happen to them?
Someone with quick thinking immediately started to speak nicely to Li Luo: "Hey, Luo Luo, when you got married, your sister-in-law went to help you. You can't forget this kindness."
"Our family never asked your family to pay for the dairy cow. We can earn money ourselves and provide a good life for our children. You see..." The man looked at Li Luo hopefully.
Li Luo took a few glances at the man. He was a smart man who knew how to adapt to changing circumstances. Such a person would be a good leader working in a clothing store.
"How about this, I'll take you to the clothing store tomorrow to get familiar with the environment. The trial period is seven days. If you're okay, you can stay and work in the clothing store. You'll get 30 yuan a month."
"The work is not busy. I just look after the store, occasionally restock the stock, and introduce the clothes to customers."
When others heard this, they were surprised that they could earn thirty yuan so easily and they didn’t have to take care of the children at home. The thirty yuan could be enough to buy milk for two months. Why would they still worry about the children not having enough nutrition?
Many women were tempted and began to say that their families no longer needed to drink milk and it would be great if Li Luo could give them jobs.
But Li Luo said, "Our clothing store is only short of one or two people. Sister Liu already has a vacancy, so we don't need to recruit anyone for the time being."
