Yan Lizhou drove out those farmers who were dissatisfied with Chen Shu. Chen Shu didn't say anything when she found out about it. She was not a generous person. If those people dared to complain about her, then they should stop working in her farm.
Chen Yun asked the steward to handle the affairs of the village. She didn't care what the farmers wanted, but they didn't want to get in front of her or delay her work in the fields.
"Princess, don't worry, I will definitely handle it well." Steward Wu solemnly assured.
Although their master in Zhuangzi used to be from Pingyang Houfu, but now their master is Princess Ning, Manager Wu still knows who should be embraced.
As for the background of the princess, it was also the background of the Hou family that they could not hope to achieve. What could they be dissatisfied with?
Manager Wu's expression turned bad when he heard about those farmers. He didn't expect that there would be such bold farmers under his management, and even his noble master would dare to criticize them.
The land in Zhuangzi belongs to the noble master. The master can plant whatever he wants. It is impossible for the master to really let everyone in Zhuangzi starve to death. What are they worried about?
Their princess has more than just one farm. This 300-acre farm is the smallest farm in the princess's hands. Even if this farm has no harvest at all, the other princesses will not let them starve to death.
Don't blame those short-sighted bitches who can't control their mouths for being cruel.

"Steward Wu, cousin! What should I do? I don't want to leave Zhuangzi." The farmer who first complained about Chen Xun being heard by Yan Lizhou couldn't help but cry and hugged Steward Wu when he saw Steward Wu coming to the door.
Thigh path.
"Cousin! Cousin, look at your poor nephew! How will our family survive if we leave Zhuangzi? Cousin!"
"Cousin, our family has no land. If we don't work in the village, we will have no way of living. Cousin! I will never dare to do it again, cousin!" Farmer A cried while holding Manager Wu's thigh.
road.
Manager Wu didn't feel soft at all when he saw Farmer A crying. This nephew was a distant relative to him. He only treated his family more because he was quite peaceful and diligent in the past.
Just taking care of it.
Unexpectedly, his care over the years has developed his appetite, and he actually dares to complain about his master?
Farmers like them, especially those in Zhuangzi, depend on their masters for their livelihood, which is different from ordinary people who own their own land.
So seeing his nephew end up like this, Manager Wu was really tired and no longer wanted to take care of him.
"You have been so arrogant these years that you even dared to speak out against your master. What else do you dare not do?" Manager Wu said expressionlessly.
"Zhuangzi belongs to the princess. She can do whatever she wants. How can you say anything? How dare you say something wrong with the princess? How brave are you?"
"Since you dared to do this in the first place, why should you struggle now that you have ended up like this?" Manager Wu looked at Farmer A's family and said with a serious expression, "You are also going crazy just because you have me as your cousin in charge?"
Manager Wu really didn't expect that because he helped Farmer A and his family because of his little relationship, they would become rampant by relying on his cousin who was the manager.
Maybe they haven't reached the point of being overbearing and haven't done anything bad, but when they usually take advantage of others, they bring him as a cousin to suppress others, so others don't dare to care.
Even when working in the fields, relying on his cousin's name, he was assigned easier jobs and more grain than they worked.
Manager Wu really didn't expect that Farmer A and his family would change so much. A family that was so diligent at the beginning would become so big in just a few years, and even involve him.
When Yan Lizhou found out that Farmer A was actually a relative of Steward Wu's family and had used Steward Wu's name to do those things before, he also punished Steward Wu.
Of course, the punishment is a fine of salary and welfare. Farmer A and others have used Manager Wu's name to take advantage of others over the years, and no matter how much benefit they have gained, Manager Wu must make up for it.
Only when Manager Wu is bleeding profusely will he realize the seriousness of the matter and he will not be able to continue to protect his relatives.
Of course, it was impossible for Zhuangzi to continue to have Steward Wu as the steward here. Chen Yu promoted another person who could check each other with Steward Wu.
Is it true that Manager Wu didn't know anything about what Farmer A and his family had done over the years? It was impossible for him not to know, but he still didn't deal with it but let it go.
Since Manager Wu didn't help and didn't do anything wrong, Chen Yu didn't remove his manager's position, but promoted another manager who was on an equal footing with Manager Wu.
This new manager was recommended by Yan Lizhou, a retired soldier who had worked under Yan Lizhou for several years.
This steward named Fan Lie was very smart and capable, so Chen Yu promoted him to become another steward, who could not only restrain Steward Wu, but also protect the crops she planted on the farm.
No one knows what she is planting now, but when it is harvested, the sweet potatoes, which produce seven to eight thousand kilograms per acre, are very precious, and of course they need to be well protected.

Even though Manager Wu was very resentful of Farmer A and his family for causing trouble to him, causing the princess to disappoint him and promoting another person to divide his power, he still could not resent the princess and the prince.
He could only resent Farmer A's family, so he drove them out of Zhuangzi. As for whether they returned to their hometown or where they went, Manager Wu didn't want to care at all.
You must know that because of this incident, Manager Wu’s own family was also very noisy. His wife, children, and even his grandson all felt that it was because he indulged Farmer A’s family too much that their family ended up in this situation.
.
Everyone in the Wu family knew what the princess had punished Manager Wu to bring out. To them, this was like cutting off flesh.
They all regarded these things as their own, but because Farmer A and his family took away so many things, how could they not feel sad?
Manager Wu really regretted it. He originally thought that this village was very small and the master paid little attention to it, so he could indulge his relatives, and even take advantage of his family members, be lazy and so on.
Unexpectedly, because this Zhuangzi became the dowry of the princess, and because Zhuangzi was young enough, the princess used him to experiment with growing something unknown, so he was shot at.
Steward Wu really regrets it, but there is no use regretting it now. He has to make a meritorious performance and let the princess know that he is qualified as a steward and value him as a steward again.
Manager Wu thinks that after working for so many years, he is still more experienced and can do better than Fan Lie, a young man who has only just established himself.
As long as he performs well in the future, the princess will definitely think more of him. Young Fan Lie can't compare to him.
