In anger, Xu Dongsheng raised his hand to hit Zhang Jinfang.
Habits come naturally. In the past, at home, he got used to it.
Unexpectedly, the current Zhang Jinfang is no longer the submissive Zhang Jinfang in the Xu family.
How could he stand obediently and get beaten?
She dodged her body to the side, and Xu Dongsheng jumped into the air.
Then, she took the opportunity to kick Xu Dongsheng.
Before Xu Dongsheng was born, he had already drank a lot of water in order to sell blood, and his stomach had long been bulging like a water bag.
At this moment, he was kicked by Zhang Jinfang and he threw himself on the pillar in front.
"Wow..." The water in his stomach vomited out like a spurt.
The onlookers were so frightened that they ran away in all directions. Is there anything wrong with this man?
Xu Dongsheng was full of water and vomited most of it, but finally regained his composure.
He did not dare to make another mistake and cursed Zhang Jinfang: "Zhang Jinfang, don't be proud. I won't argue with you today. Just wait."
He said, clasping his legs, taking small steps, and walking away faster.
If he didn't walk faster, he was worried that some water would spray out from below, which would be too embarrassing.
The people watching around burst into laughter.
I thought it was really a scene of catching an adulterer, but after a long time, I found out that this man turned out to be such a coward.
Zhang Jinfang picked up the lunch box that fell on the ground.
"I'm sorry..." Huang Zhiguo stammered and apologized.
He didn't expect that something like this would actually happen.
"It has nothing to do with you." Zhang Jinfang said calmly. She took the lunch box, put it in a mesh bag, and carried it back to the guest house. She just thought it was a bad day when she went out and was bitten by a dog.

Three days later, Xu Erlong finally loaded a truck full of leather shoes.
In order to get this car of leather shoes, he tried many ways. In addition to wooing the sales staff of the leather shoe factory, he also went to the house of the director of the leather shoe factory to block people.
"The banner has also become a bargaining chip for his efforts to prove his identity.
After hard work and hard work, he got this car of leather shoes.
This made him deeply moved.
After all, with such a strong buyer's market, it was inevitable that the leather shoe factory would be arrogant and disdain to pay attention to customers like him who came to the door.
Xu Erlong thought to himself that next time, he would never come to Shanghai to sell leather shoes, but would just find a local leather shoe factory.
With this purpose in mind, he even secretly made acquaintance with a retired master from a leather shoe factory.
After sending him a bunch of gifts and being sincere, the retired master gave him two pairs of shoe lasts in return.
The last, also known as shoe last, is the mold for forming shoes.
Whether a pair of shoes fits your feet, whether they are comfortable to wear, and whether they can protect your feet, the shoe last plays a huge role.
In an era when shoemaking technology was underdeveloped, it was all thanks to the accumulated experience of these master craftsmen and based on the shape of the foot to craft such shoe lasts.
Whether the shoes are good or not depends mainly on the shoe last.
The saying "the shoe last is the soul of the shoe" is not rhetoric, it emphasizes the key role that the shoe last plays in the style and comfort of the shoe.
It can be said that Xu Erlong has mastered the core technology by getting the lasts of these two pairs of shoes.
At that time, as long as the leather shoe business is booming, he can find a local shoe factory and customize leather shoes according to the size of the last, without having to travel all the way here to find the goods.
Xiong Yawei followed Xu Erlong as he ran around.
Although it took some time, he was impressed by Xu Erlong's effort.
With such energy, why worry about not making money?
"Erlong, I also have a stake in this leather shoe business." Xiong Yawei said to Xu Erlong with a shy face.
"Don't worry, I will definitely pull you along." Xu Erlong smiled.
Now that he has his first pot of gold, he can expand his business. Unlike when he first sold eels, he had to issue an IOU first to receive the money for the eels.
Xiong Yawei asked Xiao Luo: "Do you want to buy a share?"
Xiao Luo shook his head. He didn't have much capital, but he could be a truck driver with a high income and a better life than many people. He was already satisfied.
Although Xu Erlong and the others make a lot of money, the risks are high.
It is easy to have problems on the way to get goods. It is also tiring to find a source of goods and beg your father to sue your grandma.
Everyone has his own ambitions. Xiong Yawei gave him a few words of advice, but if he didn't want to, let it go.
The three of them drove back and drove back.
This trip was uneventful. The police had just taken down the most vicious gang of car thieves and road bullies in this area a few days ago. It was extremely safe for everyone to drive.
After several days of traveling, Xu Erlong and his group finally rushed back to the county town.
Seeing Xu Erlong rushing back after a long journey, Zhang Jinfang's heart, which had been hanging for a while, finally calmed down.
"Are you hungry? Have you eaten? I'll get you some food?" Zhang Jinfang asked repeatedly.
"No, Mom, we ate outside." Xu Erlong replied.
He is now anxious to find someone to help unload the goods and move the load of leather shoes from the truck.
Since he did not rent a warehouse, the house rented by the guest house became a temporary warehouse.
The waiter at the guest house helped call a few people to help move the goods.
Zhang Jinfang also joined the army of moving goods and moved with them.
These shoes are packed in shoe boxes, five boxes in a bunch. They look big in size, but they don’t weigh much. Zhang Jinfang can carry two bunches at a time.
"Mom, just rest, we can move it ourselves." Xu Erlong was afraid that she would flash her waist.
"What's the point? I have hands, feet and strength, why should I rest?" Zhang Jinfang replied.
Xu Erlong had no choice but to let her go and move quickly with his hands and feet.
After moving the goods, everyone was sweating profusely.
Xu Erlong wiped the sweat from his face and began to pay the people who moved the goods.
We had agreed on a price before, and after moving this truckload of goods, each person would have to pay two yuan.
But when he paid, he found that one person was missing.
Obviously just now, when he was moving the goods, there was a man in a white shirt moving the goods with him.
Why is it that when wages are paid, the person who moved the goods is not there?
Xu Erlong scratched his head and couldn't understand.
After giving out the money, Xu Erlong finally had some free time. He took towels, soap, etc. and went to the bathhouse of the guest house to take a hot bath.
This road, I was driving day and night, and I didn't even have time to wash my face properly. It was really very windy and dusty.
After taking a shower, Xu Erlong came out, stroking his wet hair. He looked refreshed and became the handsome man again.
As soon as he placed the washbasin next to the laundry chute, Xu Erlong saw a man washing clothes next to the laundry chute.
Isn't this the man who helped us move the goods just now? I didn't see him when we were paying the wages, and I didn't expect that he was actually washing clothes here.
Xu Erlong said hello, reached into his pocket, and prepared to top up the two yuan.
Unexpectedly, I touched my pants pockets and found them empty.
Only then did he remember that while he was busy taking a shower just now, he had given Zhang Jinfang all his valuables such as his pocketbook and wallet for safekeeping. Now, his four pockets weighed as much and he didn't have any money.
