Chapter 541: Chapter 541 Return to the Breeding Farm 2
Wen Yun gestured, "You go ahead!"
Then she turned to Cheng Feng, "Boss Cheng, do you want to change your clothes?"
Cheng Feng shook his head, "Thanks, I’ll just go to the river to wash my feet."
Wen Yun knew that these wealthy people are quite particular and might not be willing to wear Tong Yaohui’s clothes, so she didn’t insist.
Tong Yao went into the house, immediately dialed the police station number, tersely described the situation, then hung up. She cleaned the mud off her feet at the well, changed into Wen Yun’s clothes, and as soon as she came out, she saw that Tai brother and his men had come here.
Cheng Feng also cleaned his trouser legs, found a pair of scissors, and neatly cut off everything below the knees. His once fine suit trousers were now turned into shorts, giving an amusing appearance.
Originally, Tai brother had a serious expression, but upon seeing Tong Yao and Cheng Feng, his demeanor became unexpectedly affable.
Wen Yun ushered everyone into the house, "Come in and watch TV for a while. I’ll go and cook dinner. The chickens we raise here taste good, you should try them."
As she spoke, she called Tong Yaohui to help her kill a chicken.
The house couldn’t accommodate everyone, so Tai brother and his men didn’t go in. Tong Yao led Cheng Feng for a walk around the breeding farm, Tai brother followed behind them, and voiced his curiosity. 𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑝𝘶𝘣.𝑐𝘰𝘮
"Weren’t you here to buy eggs? How come the boss here has become your father?"
Tong Yao apologetically explained, "Tai Brother, I was just about to tell you this. I’m sorry, but this breeding farm is actually mine. We came this time to bring a client to look around. At that time, we weren’t sure if you were good men, so we lied."
Upon hearing this, Tai brother surprisingly didn’t get angry, instead he nodded understandingly, "In that situation, meeting a few big men like us would indeed be scary. It’s natural for you to be cautious."
Tai brother thought to himself: The fact that Tong Yao can say this now implies that she trusts them and has let her guard down.
Pretending to ask casually, he said, "Your breeding farm is quite large, you must need a lot of workers to manage it, right?"
Tong Yao shook her head, "Not too many, aside from my parents, we’ve hired another three or four."
Tai brother nodded, chuckled, "My wife is expecting, she has cravings for meat lately. But we live quite far from the market, so shopping isn’t convenient. Could we buy meat from you? I understand that you might be hesitant to deal with such small business, but I’m doing this for my wife, otherwise I wouldn’t ask."
Before Tong Yao could reply, he added, "If it’s not convenient to sell, it’s fine, I can think of other ways."
Tong Yao laughed lightly, "Oh, Tai Brother, it’s such a small matter! I’ll talk to my parents later. If you guys want to buy chicken or duck, feel free to come over anytime. Your wife is about to give birth, she needs to eat and regain her strength."
Seeing Tong Yao’s straightforwardness, Tai Brother thanked her repeatedly, but his eyes betrayed his calculations.
Wen Yun and Tong Yaohui quickly prepared a big meal. As there were many people, Wen Yun worried they wouldn’t have enough to eat and asked Tong Yaohui to slaughter three roosters.
Lucky they were in the mountains and using a large iron pot. This quantity of food wouldn’t fit into a pot in the city.
Once the food was ready, the men sat around the table drinking and eating, while Wen Yun called Tong Yao and Hu Haiyun into the kitchen and served them their food.
"You must be hungry! Eat something to fill your stomach. They are drinking, so we don’t need to join them."
It wasn’t that Wen Yun disdained them, but she found Tai brother and his men to give off a somewhat unkind, unclean impression. Especially the one called Niu Wa, who carried a strong, unpleasant smell, spat when he spoke, and lacked manners.
When she served them earlier, they started grabbing the food before she set the plate down. They showed no manners at all and were rather crude. They had no respect for women. When she brought food over earlier, Niu Wa actually said something to Tong Yaohui,
"Your woman is quite old, but she’s kept herself well, she looks younger than my mom. Rich people know how to maintain their women."
Such frivolous words uttered from someone who is more than a decade younger, left Wen Yun barely containing her temper. Remembering they had helped her daughter, Wen Yun held her tongue, hoping they would leave as soon as they finished eating. She couldn’t stand the sight of them even for a second.
Tong Yao noticed that Wen Yun looked somewhat awkward, she guessed that Wen Yun probably disdained Tai brother and his men, but didn’t point it out.
She handed a pair of chopsticks to Hu Haiyun, "Sister Hu, eat as well! This road might take a couple of days of exposure to the sun before we can drive on it. We’re going to be staying here for a couple of days. I’m sorry for having you accompany me on such a risky journey."
Hu Haiyun took the chopsticks, laughed raucously, "Yaoyao, don’t speak such words in the future, I’ll feel like you’re treating me as a stranger."
Tong Yao smiled, and after the three of them had their meal, Tong Yao stood at the door and glanced outside. Seeing that everyone was still eating in the house, and no one outside, she turned back to the kitchen and said to Wen Yun,
"Mom, I have something to tell you, don’t be scared. These men are not good people. I’ve called the police, they’ll come to arrest them soon. I let them stay and have dinner here just to buy some time."
She hadn’t mentioned this earlier fearing that Wen Yun would lose her appetite.
After all, Wen Yun had always lived in the city, everything had gone smoothly in recent years, she hadn’t encountered any significant events. Tong Yao was worried she would be scared.
As expected, hearing this, Wen Yun’s face turned pale out of fear, "Yao Yao, you mean, those people who were drinking with your dad are all bad men?"
Tong Yao nodded, gripping Wen Yun’s hand, "Mom, don’t worry. There are many of us here now, they wouldn’t dare to do anything. I’ve already called the police, they’ll be here soon."
Wen Yun’s hand trembled uncontrollably, "How could you have run into them? What on earth is happening? Didn’t you say they had helped you?"
Seeing Wen Yun so alarmed, Hu Haiyun said, "Yaoyao, you explain the situation to auntie Wen slowly. I’ll watch the door."
Tong Yao nodded in gratitude, and then quietly explained how they had encountered these people. The more Wen Yun listened, the more scared she became, her whole body trembling. Having such villains here could be life threatening.
Of course, Tong Yao also understood the gravity of the situation. She said, "Mom, later I’ll think about getting some stun guns for self-defense. Also, I’m thinking of bringing those three dogs from Li City over. They’re very clever, keeping them here will increase our security."
"Fine."
Wen Yun nodded, still not fully recovered from the surprise.
If anything were to happen to her daughter, she and Tong Yaohui couldn’t go on living either.
Seeing Wen Yun in such a state, Tong Yao brought her a stool to sit down and rest. When the men in the other room requested garlic, she didn’t let Wen Yun go to serve it.
