Chapter 141 Chapter 141 Who else can he ask for help except me...

In just a few days, the problem of unsold fruits in Xiaoqing Village was solved and the village roads were also repaired. This is enough to show the appeal of Xu Yunfan and Qin Run.

With Xu Yunfan's advice, Qin Run's execution ability is not to be underestimated, and with the support of Grandpa Lan's family, the other villagers were still hesitant, not knowing whether to believe it or not, for fear that their efforts would be in vain.

After learning that Qin Run's husband was the teacher of Qingfeng Academy, and that the Yunrun store in the town that was doing a booming business was opened by Qin Run, as well as the Qin clan members in Dali Village, although they could not eat the best meals every day now, one thing was true, that is, they could earn dozens of copper coins a day.

What is the concept of this?

Just for these reasons, plus what Aunt Fang said to her family, "Mom and Dad, don't think about it. Your daughter won't harm you. You just need to remember that if you follow Xu kid, you will have meat to eat."

The Xiaoqing Village chief immediately made the decision, "Since Run'er has asked us to build the road, let's get started. As the saying goes, the bold will die of overeating, while the timid will die of starvation. How can we know if it will succeed if we don't try?"

The result is self-evident.

Qin Run brought Qin's people and pulled out more than a dozen big cows from the cowshed, harnessed them to ox carts, and transported fruits and bamboo for several days in a row. This made the villagers of Xiaoqing Village very excited.

Qin Run arranged for people to transport the unsold fruits from Xiaoqing Village in carts and carts, and even the bamboo from Xiaoqing Village was not spared.

After learning about this, County Magistrate Zhou naturally agreed with Jiang Lanfang's optimism about Xu Yunfan.

One thing County Magistrate Zhou had to admit was that even as a county magistrate, the unsold fruits in Xiaoqing Village still gave him a headache.

He had thought about asking the villagers of Xiaoqing Village to cut down the fruit trees and replant other crops, but the villagers were reluctant to do so.

You know, some of the fruit trees took them several years to take care of before they could bloom and bear fruit. As a result, before they could earn much money, all the fruit trees were cut down. This meant that all their hard work in the previous years was in vain. Who would be willing to give up so many fruit trees?

These villagers always believe everything they hear. A few years ago, when people said they could make money by planting fruit trees and selling them, every household in Xiaoqing Village planted them, but they forgot the principle that scarcity makes things valuable.

Another thing is that the land in Xiaoqing Village is not flat enough. The slopes are relatively high, and water flows to lower places. The water cannot be diverted upwards, so the fields cannot be planted.

During that period, the yellow fruit in Qinghe Town was in short supply. After a man from other places came to sell fruit tree seedlings and boasted about it, the villagers, young and old, who were afraid that they would not be able to buy even the fruit tree seedlings if they were slow, came out from every household and planted all the fruit trees.

Nowadays, the villagers have no choice but to worry year after year.

Xu Yunfan solved the headache for County Magistrate Zhou. The more he looked at Xu Yunfan, the more satisfied he became. Before leaving, he thought of Jiang Lanfang's plan, and when he looked at Xu Yunfan again, his eyes couldn't help but become meaningful.

Yang Haoqi and other students from Class C6 who came to "join in the fun" were unable to react for a while. No, the case was overturned by Xu Yunfan?

The students from other classes who came to listen to the case couldn't help but wonder, "Master Xu, how...how dare you openly stand up for others? If you do...it's very likely that your future will be ruined."

"Isn't he just a master? Why should I be afraid of him? Just do it and be done with it. If I don't do it to him once, won't this guy go crazy? He is so capable." Xu Yunfan almost blurted out these words.

Xu Yunfan did not rush to answer the student's question, but thought about it for a while.

He is a student, so he needs to think before speaking.

Xu Yunfan smiled and waved his hand. "Today, Master will teach you one more lesson: a gentleman can be reserved but not cowardly. When faced with injustice, he can speak out. This is a very simple truth. My students are in trouble and seek my help. As a teacher, I should protect my students. If my students really encounter injustice, I will help them if I can. However, he is just a teacher. Can he really cover up everything with one hand? He doesn't have that much power. Besides, our county magistrate is a great justice..."

County Magistrate Zhou, who was not walking far away, happened to hear these words and agreed with them in his heart. He couldn't help but pause and turned to look at Xu Yunfan, who was surrounded by a group of students. He smiled elegantly, but there was a hint of pride in his eyes. He couldn't help but think to himself, this kid, he speaks in a set way, he is upright and yet smooth. Jiang Lanfang was right about one thing, Xu Yunfan is indeed a man of some knowledge.

He may not say everything in eloquently, but occasionally a word he says is enough to make people think deeply.

Xu Yunfan felt a little flattered after being praised by a group of students. When he followed Qin Run back on the ox cart, he touched Qin Run with his arm. When Qin Run looked over, he raised his right eyebrow in a coquettish manner, "Brother Run, have you noticed that I seem to be a little more handsome today?"

Qin Run: “…”

Become a little more handsome?

He didn't notice this little bit, but he could see and hear that Xu Yunfan was indeed a little more narcissistic than yesterday.

I don’t know what kind of family can raise a child like Xu Yunfan.

Confidence, optimism, kindness, integrity...

Xu Yunfan's self-confidence is not blind, and his integrity and kindness are not blind or inappropriate, but are within the scope of his ability.

"Why aren't you talking?" Not getting a response from Qin Run, Xu Yunfan stretched out his hand and waved it in front of the dazed Qin Run.

Qin Run reached out and grasped the rebellious hand in front of him, gently pinching Xu Yunfan's fingers. He revealed a look of worry at the right moment and said against his will, "Well, you are much more handsome than yesterday. What should I do? You are getting more handsome every day. If one day you are so handsome that you are out of this world, there will be no room for you here. What will I do then?"

"Haha..." Xu Yunfan tilted his head and leaned on Qin Run's shoulder, laughing softly, his eyes full of unconcealable smiles, "Qin Run, how can you be so nice."

It is such a blessing to be pampered and coaxed by your loved one.

In addition to your parents and relatives, if there is someone who is infinitely tolerant of you, pampers you, and tolerates you, this person must be your other half who loves you deeply.

If you don’t love or like someone, even if it’s your parents or your significant other, who can do this?

Being able to meet Qin Run, Xu Yunfan felt that it was worth it for him to come here for no reason.

Being nice to Xu Yunfan seemed like a trivial and everyday thing to Qin Run. "Because I like you, I want to be nice to you."

Maybe it’s because he has been with Xu Yunfan for too long, there are some things that Qin Run might have been too embarrassed to say in the past, but not now.

If you love him, let him know.

If you love someone, you should express it.

Xu Yunfan let Qin Run pinch his fingers and did not pull his hand out. After a while, he held Qin Run's hand with his backhand, leaned close to Qin Run's ear, and whispered: "I love you too. You are good to me, and I am good to you. I am happy when you are happy. Our family is harmonious and happy. It's great."

…

Xu Yunfan and Qin Run, who had separated from their classmates, did not rush back to the village, but had dinner in the town before going back.

They hadn't returned yet, but the news of Xu Yunfan overturning Yang Xing's case had already spread like wildfire. Not only in Dali Village, but also in several nearby villages, people had heard about it.

At first, when they learned that Xu Yunfan was going to stand up for the Yang family, they talked about how arrogant Xu Yunfan was. How could a scholar who had never even taken the imperial examination think he had the ability to overturn Yang Xing's case?

It is true that he knows how to make money. Not long after Qin Run picked him up, Xu Yunfan was able to change the situation of the Qin family by his own efforts, and even became a hot topic in the nearby villages. Now, the Qin family has become the richest family in the neighborhood.

But this does not mean that Xu Yunfan is equally good in other aspects.

Haven’t you seen the rich people in the town? They usually act superior and arrogant to the officials, but when they see the officials, their knees and backs still bend and their legs still go weak.

The wealthy families in the town are richer than Xu Yunfan, have been rooted in Qinghe Town longer, and have wider connections and channels than Xu Yunfan. Even so, do they dare to easily overturn the verdict for others?

I dare not!

Why does Xu Yunfan dare to do something that others don’t dare to do?

In the eyes of other villagers, this kid is simply too arrogant and thinks he is very powerful and can do anything.

People like this won't know how to restrain themselves unless they suffer a little.

This is what they thought when they heard that Xu Yunfan wanted to overturn Yang Xing's verdict. Some members of the Qin family were even worried, fearing that Xu Yunfan would fail to overturn the verdict and end up getting themselves imprisoned.

Mr. Qin even went to see Xu Yunfan for this, trying to persuade him that it is better to do less than more, and that sometimes standing by and watching can be a form of self-protection.

But Xu Yunfan was silent for a long time, then he laughed wildly again. He said, "Grandpa Qin, you are afraid of the powerful and afraid of getting into trouble, so you choose to protect yourself. This is your choice. Others have no right to blame you. But I am different. Grandpa Qin, I was born into wealth and stand at the top of an ivory tower. There are many things that would scare you, but I am not afraid. I have lived like this for more than ten years. If I am asked to shrink from fear, I can't do it."

"Don't worry, this isn't a momentary impulse on my part, nor is it something I did on a whim. Yang Haoqi is my student. He knows my identity and my situation in the academy, but he still came to me. How desperate must he be to try so hard to grab me as a lifeline? Now that I know about this, if I have the ability and the means to handle it for him, but refuse him because I'm afraid of power, my conscience will hurt. This matter may make me study for the rest of my life and feel guilty. I'd rather try my best. As a teacher, I must protect my students."

"Yang Haoqi is a poor student from a poor family. Grandpa Qin, if I reject him, who else can he turn to? Who else can help him? Is it because they have no power and influence that ordinary people can only swallow their suffering when they encounter difficulties? He asked me for help, and I don't want to cruelly extinguish his last hope. Since he has no one to turn to, I am willing to be a window and bring him another ray of light."

Since childhood, Xu Yunfan has been instilled with an idea by his family, that is, as a man of the Xu family, he should not rely on his status and position to cause trouble outside, but he should not be afraid of trouble either. If he really encounters trouble, he should not be afraid. As long as it is not his fault, he will fight against it, and the Xu family will settle all his troubles for him.

A few years later, Xu Yunfan realized that his father was not just bragging when he said this, but that their Xu family really had the ability to do so.

He was born at a height that others could never reach in their entire lives, and was destined to be flattered and praised. So, apart from ghosts and mollusks, what else could Xu Yunfan be afraid of?

After living like this for twenty years, he is now like other villagers. He is not used to it and cannot do it.

He was just a county magistrate. To him, there was no way he could be afraid.

However, considering the supremacy of imperial power in ancient times, Xu Yunfan also did sufficient investigation and preparation in advance.

Xu Yunfan's words left Old Qin stunned for a while.
