59. We want the tree!

Old Mrs. Zhang still stared at her without saying a word, but Old Man Xiang pulled her sleeve, then nodded helplessly and said, "Oh, forget it, just do as she said?"

He finally understood that this girl was someone who was not easy to deal with!

Mrs. Zhang turned around and turned her face to one side, but her face was still dark and smelly.

Xiang Bingchong then faced the crowd and said, "Okay, then please come with me, everyone, and then be a witness."

After a group of people came to the slope, Mrs. Zhang pointed at one area to divide, and then pointed at that area to divide. Xiang Jin and the others didn't care, but with her greedy look, she was reluctant to throw away sesame seeds and watermelons.

And seeing that the sun was about to set, she finally lost her patience.

"I asked you whether you have decided on which part?"

Mrs. Zhang had a dark face and asked, "Why are you so worried?"

Xiang Jin pointed at the sun in the distance, "Can't you be anxious? The sun is going to set. We don't have as much free time as you do. We still have a lot of things to do when we get back."

"What does it have to do with me if you have something to do?" Mrs. Zhang was just unreasonable.

"You?" Xiang Jin got angry immediately, and then he stared at her with big eyes and small eyes, and he seemed to be in a tense posture.

Xiang Bingchong hurriedly came out to be the peacemaker, "Hey, Auntie, don't say that, it's really getting late. If we delay any longer, we won't be able to see the measurement clearly."

Standing aside, he reluctantly pointed to an area with relatively few trees planted by the old man and said impatiently, "Well, this is the area!"

Xiang Bingchong said, "Are you sure?"

"Oh, that's it," Old Man Xiang turned his face to one side, showing no signs of boredom.

"Okay!" Xiang Bingchong pondered for a moment and nodded. Then he walked over with a pole marked with scales to measure, and then followed a fellow student who walked over with a hoe to dig a hole.

There was one symmetrical one at the top and one at the bottom, and then several other people found two large stones and buried them in the pit respectively with only one stone tip exposed as the junction point.

After the slope was divided, Xiang Jin walked over and counted the tree stumps that they had sawed off in front of everyone. Then he broke off a few yellow wattle branches to measure the approximate diameter of the tree stumps.

Then he walked up to the old man Xiang and Mrs. Zhang and said, "You saw it too, and everyone goes to testify that I did not lie. You yourself know which trees you have sawed, and you will be compensated accordingly."

We, as the saying goes, if there are trees, we will pay for them, if there are no trees, we will pay for them. Let’s see when we pay them.”

Mrs. Zhang doesn't have any food or salt, "I don't have the tree, I don't have the money. I pulled the tree out, but I don't know if I can sell it."

Xiang Jin said, "No, I remember there are several big cypress trees around your house."

Mrs. Zhang said, "How can that be done? Those trees are bigger than the trees on your slope. If you want my trees, don't even think about it!"

I also sternly stated to the old man that that would never work!

Xiang Jin said, "This is easy to do. Your tree is big, but you guys cut down more trees on my slope. When the time comes, two trees will be equal to one according to the diameter of the trees."

The two old men refused again in unison, "No!"

Xiang Jin also had a tough attitude, "I don't care whether you agree with it or not. If you cut down our tree, you have to pay for it!"

Old Mrs. Zhang stared at her and opened her mouth to scold her again, but was stopped by Old Man Xiang, who finally took a step back and said, "We will pay for it."

Xiang Jin said, "We don't want money. Our family is building a house. Our house is short of trees now, so we need trees! Besides, it would be troublesome to buy from other people's houses after we take the money. We don't want to be in that trouble!"

Besides, they were the ones selling the trees. They said the trees were cheap and gave them a few yuan or ten each and then gave them away. Then wouldn’t they have suffered a huge loss?

She completely believed that the Lao Xiang family could do such a shameless thing.

Seeing that she persisted, the old man stared at her for a long time, and finally nodded angrily and said, "Okay, okay, then I'll give you the tree!"

After getting what she wanted, Xiang Jin called her mother, "Mom, let's go. In order to avoid something unexpected happening when the nights are long and full of dreams, we'd better ask Dengwei's father to come down to the bay and help us while it's still dark."

That tree was sawn."

Old Mrs. Zhang and Old Man Xiang almost fell down in anger.

And many people around him couldn't help shaking their heads and laughing, thinking that this girl was a ghost.

Yang Juyun naturally had no objection. After Xiang Jin said those words to her, she turned around and trotted off to invite Aiden Wei.

Xiang Jin did not go home, but directly held the sticks in her hand and went to the back of Lao Xiang's house, and other people followed her to watch the fun.

Xiang Jin picked three large straight cypress trees to guard there, and asked Dengwei's father to cut them when he arrived.

Old Mrs. Zhang and Old Man Xiang naturally refused to do it when they saw it, and insisted on letting them saw the other ones nearby.

Xiang Jin said, "Why are we sawing those twists and turns? Even firewood is not up to standard, and we are too lazy to spend effort to chop it.

In the afternoon, I saw that the trees you sawed us were all straight, so why should we saw your trees with weird eyebrows when we sawed them?

Tree? There is no such truth in the world!

You are so strong and domineering, and you are not afraid that if the news spreads, it will have a bad impact on your daughter who is taking the exam.

It is said that so-and-so’s father and mother are in their group, and even the whole brigade is a pair of unreasonable and evil parents. Let’s see how shameless your daughter will be in the future to hold her head up in front of the teachers and classmates, and who will be willing to do so?

Be friends with her?"

"You?" Mrs. Zhang was so angry that she arched her throat, clenched her fists, and gritted her teeth as if she wanted to rush over and slap her, but she didn't dare because Xiang Jin and her grandparents were also standing in the crowd at the moment.

Watch inside.

The old man Xiang had a gloomy face and looked very hateful, but he also knew that what Xiang Jin said was the truth. They were unreasonable about this matter. If the news spread, it would really have a great impact on Xiang Yan.

Influenced.

She has not passed the exam after so many years. She is already under great mental pressure. If she is influenced by them again and cannot hold her head up in front of teachers and classmates, it will be really bad.

Already.

So, he closed his eyes and tried hard to calm down the anger in his heart before saying, "Forget it, let them chop it!"

"Old man?" Mrs. Zhang looked at him in surprise.

Old Man Xiang glared at her, and at the same time raised his voice, "I told them to chop!"

Seeing that he was angry, Mrs. Zhang immediately didn't dare to say anything anymore.

Seeing the extremely forbearing look of the old couple, a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of Xiang Jin's mouth, because of the double-standard behavior and attitude of the old couple.

Look, her own child is also a daughter, so she doesn't dislike her at all, and she protects her closely. However, she and Xiang Nan, the two granddaughters, dislike her so much that they don't want her, so they should only kiss her own children.
