Chapter 21 The Heart(1/2)
The moment they knelt down, Jiang Yao and Jiang Yu avoided them. They didn't want to shorten their lives.
Mr. Feng wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Mr. Jiang, it's not what they said to calm down. Last night, you went back to call for someone. When you left, you turned around a tree and disappeared. The people behind you didn't catch up with you all the way."
Later I asked Zhang Tao and found that you were almost always there and didn’t leave for long, so I would venture to make a guess..."
Jiang Yao secretly said that one should not take it lightly. If one is not careful, there will be a flaw.
Jiang Yu sighed and said, "Get up." But he did not correct their guess.
They basically guessed Jiang Yao's ability correctly, and it didn't matter if she didn't guess correctly. Jiang Yao said, always keep some trump cards.
Jiang Yu: "Now that I've said it, I won't hide it from you. We have our own things to do on this trip, and it's not convenient to take you with us. We have already done what we can do for you. I'm sorry for the rest.
"
The four of them were silent for a while after hearing this. They had indeed done enough for Linjia Village and Qingyun Village.
It was Mr. Feng who spoke first: "Well, it's okay, we are selfish, but we are making things difficult for you. After resting, we will go to Tongzhou. I wish Mr. Jiang and Miss Jiang a safe journey and everything goes well."
"After saying that, I cupped my fists and saluted, thanking them for everything they have done.
The other three people also expressed their opinions one after another.
Jiang Yu smiled and said, "I'd like to lend you some good words."
After saying that, he nodded to them and walked aside to rest.
Jiang Yao and Jiang Yu leaned against a stone by the river, closing their eyes and concentrating.
Jiang Yu ostensibly closed her eyes to rest, but in fact she could clearly hear the conversations of people not far away...
The old village chief, Shi Yanzheng and the others went back and explained to everyone that they would no longer accompany the master, but would set out south to Tongzhou.
Lin Yougen: It turned out that they were really going to Tongzhou, but why didn’t the master come with them?
He was not the only one who had questions. As soon as the old village chief finished speaking, someone started asking.
"Master, why don't you come with us?"
The old village chief: "Master and the others have other things to do and won't go to Tongzhou."
Another villager: "Then we won't go to Tongzhou and follow the master. That's right."
Everyone agreed.
The old village chief was already worried, and he got angry because of the noise from these people: "Stop arguing! I told you that the master has something to do, how can you bring so many of us?! With so many people, you can't even enter the city gate, don't
Adding to the chaos!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was an anxious and sharp voice from a woman: "Does the master find us troublesome and unwilling to take us with him? How is this possible? The master brought us out, why doesn't he care about us now..."
The old village chief jumped in anger when he heard this, especially when he saw that many people had shut up and kept silent, which showed that he somewhat agreed with the woman's words.
"Dashu! Take care of your wife! Do you think so even if you don't speak?" the old village chief asked and then started to curse.
"Do you still have a conscience?! What does Master owe you? Master was kind enough to let us leave in advance to avoid the earthquake. You don't know how to be grateful. Do you still think you should?!"
"Life is going so well, right? Haven't you seen what those people in Dongfu Village look like? If it weren't for the master, we wouldn't even know if any of us would be alive. You, you..."
The old village chief was so angry that he couldn't speak fluently. He calmed down before continuing: "Whoever thinks so will be expelled from the village! We don't have such a heartless person in Linjia Village!!!"
When Lin Dashu heard that he was going to be expelled from the village, he was anxious. It was so chaotic outside. How could he survive if he was expelled from the village at this time?
He quickly said: "Uncle, uncle, don't worry, we don't think so. This woman is ignorant and talking nonsense. I will deal with her right now."
After saying that, he slapped the woman on the face.
Sun Zhaodi was stunned by this slap. She originally regretted that she had said the wrong thing, but now all she could think about was disbelief.
"Lin Dashu! You hit me? You actually hit me?!" As he said that, he pounced on Hualin Dashu and grabbed Hualin Dashu's face instantly, and the two started fighting.
Sun Zhaodi comes from a family that values boys over girls, but as the eldest sister in the family, in addition to doing a lot of work, her parents still love her.
Especially her appearance is one of the best in Sunjia Village, and she is capable, so anyone who comes to ask for marriage has to cross the threshold.
Finally, she married Lin Dashu, because she fell in love with him because he was quite handsome, and because he was the only son in Lin Dashu's family, he was willing to spend money and gave her a full twenty-tael gift.
In the mountains, that was the first share. Others only had livestock, furniture and the like, and only Sun Zhaodi got two taels of silver.
After getting married, she gave birth to two fat sons in a row. Her status in the Lin family also increased, and she was held in high esteem.
Lin Dashu's slap directly set her on fire, and he started beating her up in public without caring.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She also thought about the looks of Jiang Yao and Jiang Yu, and felt that the good-for-nothing members of her family must have beaten her because they were good-looking and protected them.
Jealousy overwhelmed her, and until she voiced her inner questions, the villagers secretly told her and quickly pulled her away.
Jiang Yu almost laughed angrily when he heard this, and was speechless for a while.
Lin Dashu's hair was messed up, there were four or five scratches on his face, and his hands were bitten.
Sun Zhaodi was not much better. Half of his face was swollen and his hair was a mess. His injuries were nothing but pain all over his body.
When a man fights, he doesn't just scratch his skin, he punches and kicks him, and his hands are very strong.
After the two were separated, Lin Dashu's father and mother each held a little grandson and ran to their son's side, feeling extremely distressed.
Sun Zhaodi sneered. Normally he would put it nicely, saying that he cared for her as a daughter, but it was just to see the two grandsons she had given birth to. At this time, she was not just caring about her own son.
After the two were pulled apart, the old village chief was so angry that he cursed: "Shrew!"
He was afraid. It would be terrible if the master heard what the shrew said. Don't offend the master again.
He secretly glanced at Jiang Yu and the others, and when he saw that there was no movement, he breathed a sigh of relief. He probably didn't listen.
After he was relieved, he started to curse again, so that everyone present did not dare to say a word.
Jiang Yu: I didn’t expect the old village chief to be so powerful in combat. I’m sorry, I’m disrespectful.
In contrast, in Qingyun Village, Shi Yanzheng and Mr. Feng had the final say, and almost no one had any objections.
…
After some education, the old village chief took a breath and started talking about business.
The masters are so kind to our whole village, and they don't ask for anything in return. We can't be so heartless and have to show our kindness no matter what.
After being educated, the villagers were extremely honest. They nodded obediently after hearing this, and then they were stunned and looked at each other.
Lin Yougen: "Old village chief, you are right. My Yougen's life was brought back from hell by the master. I can give my life to the master. I'm just afraid that the master will look down on me! Please give us some advice.
chant?"
Everyone continued to nod obediently.
The old village chief nodded with satisfaction: "Yougen has a good attitude. Everyone should learn from it."
Lin Yougen was suddenly praised. He scratched his head in embarrassment and found that everyone was looking at him. He raised his head and chest proudly.
"What I mean is that the masters are so capable, they don't want anything, and they really don't like what we farmers have."
"It's just that I think that the master has just left the mountain and has not brought much luggage. I'm afraid he doesn't have any food rations. Why don't you all take a look at what you have at home and take what you have. It's all from the same heart and come together to send it to the masters.
, at least let them have something to eat if they are hungry along the way, I think they will not dislike it."
After everyone heard this and thought about it, they thought it was good, and they all started to rummage through their luggage.
"Master, our wheat is growing well this year, so why not give this to the master?"
"I think it works"
…
"When I came out, I picked up a few eggs and gave them to the masters!"
…
"Boss, take out the new clothes you made for me and give them to the master. I think Mr. Jiang is about the same height as me, so he should be able to wear it."
…
Mrs. Zhou: "Xiao Liu, pack up the new quilts for them to sleep on that day and send them to them. The two girls' families are not careful at first glance. They brought such a small baggage, so they must not have brought a quilt."
…
Aunt Six: "Changsheng, take out the wild ginseng you dug in the mountains last time and send it to the master."
"Milk, that's for your body..."
"Go and get it, your body is fine."
…
Fourth Aunt: "Xiaoxi, I saved this for you to get a wife. Give it to them first. They have just left the mountain and I am afraid they don't have much money with them. I just wronged you... I will give it to them a few years later."
You are asking for a wife."
"Mom, that's right. I'm not aggrieved. Don't worry, I will earn my own money to find a wife in the future."
…
Old Mrs. Sun: "From Lao Er's house, take this piece of dried meat to Xiaoyao and Xiaoyu."
"Mom, our family only has this piece of dried meat left. I gave it to them. What should we eat?..."
