Upon opening her eyes, Shen Qing found herself in a mud-and-thatch hut, wearing clothes covered in patches, eating corn paste, and seeing no trace of meat or oil. Shen Qing: This is too miserable! ...
Chapter 122: Breakup, Great Joy
"The people from Qili Village are sick, so why should they delay the date of Shili Village? We won't wait!"
"There are almost 200 people in Qili Village. If one gets injured and we wait, what if another one falls ill? If they keep falling ill, are we just going to keep waiting?"
"That's right!"
Zhou Dashan gave a helpless smile and asked the excited crowd, "If we don't wait, who knows the way?"
The reason why he was following behind Qili Village was because of his sister's help. Otherwise, why did people in Shili Village always slow down intentionally or unintentionally when they were walking slowly?
But the villagers were not grateful or recognized it at all, they just thought it was their due.
The quarreling and angry crowd immediately quieted down.
Zhou Dashan sighed, put his hands behind his back, and went somewhere else.
After he left, Liu Sheng shouted in dissatisfaction: "The new village chief, Zhou Dashan, is useless! He can't give any benefits and doesn't even know the way around. How can we in Shili Village have such a useless village chief!"
When Zhou Yan came to take Jiang Yu back, he remembered clearly that Zhou Dashan didn't help him at all! He would remember this for the rest of his life.
With Liu Sheng in Shili Village, Zhou Dashan can forget about keeping his seat as the village chief, let alone having an easy life!
Immediately, several members of the Liu family who were watching the fun and not minding the trouble echoed loudly: "What a waste of our trust~"
"What's the point of running around all day? It's just a waste of energy. No real work is done."
"What we need are capable people, not fake hard workers. If you don't have the ability, just step down and let the capable ones take over!"
"Yeah, that's right. There are always people occupying the toilet without taking a shit."
The Zhou family groaned in anger when they heard this.
Zhou Dashan's wife felt even worse for him. She coldly asked, "You guys also know this is a toilet, right?"
Ask her what being a village chief is all about. There's no benefit at all. She has to do all the dirty, tiring, and offensive work. Even if she's a good person, it's worth the effort. But doesn't the head of the household look at the people here? She thinks any extra effort isn't worth it!
Liu Sheng angrily pointed his finger at her and threatened, "Try and curse again!"
The Zhou family was not a coward. They stepped forward and repeated it again, then politely asked, "You've already cursed me, do you want me to curse you again?"
Liu Sheng withdrew his fingers awkwardly.
Others immediately stepped forward to smooth things over.
The Zhou family snorted and left.
Liu Sheng gritted his teeth and walked towards Qili Village.
Wang Fugui was at the end of the Qili Village team. They had met before, and Wang Fugui had a lot of opinions about Jiang Yang. However, as a member of Qili Village, he must have a clear plan for how to get to Jincheng.
Wang Fugui said that he is very popular and has great prestige in Qili Village!
Why doesn't he recruit Wang Fugui, and then Wang Fugui will bring his friends, and then the population of their Shili Village will surpass that of Qili Village!
They walked in front, and Qili Village had to stop and go according to their pace. Just thinking about suppressing Qili Village and the Jiang family made them feel awesome.
*
Wang Fugui was extremely excited when he heard Liu Sheng’s promise of the position of village chief.
Without a second thought, he quickly replied, "Okay, I'll go talk to my good friends! Let's leave as soon as possible and get to Jincheng. Then we can choose a site in advance and piss off that old bastard Jiang Yang and those snobs in Qili Village who flatter the powerful and bully the weak!"
What happened last night made him feel ashamed to face people. He always felt that everyone was laughing at him.
Liu Sheng's proposal was a timely relief. Once he became the village chief of Shili Village, he would be on par with Jiang Yang, and they would be on an equal footing. Let's see how he could suppress him.
However, before leaving, he had to get information from Jiang Yang about how to get to Jincheng so that he would not be controlled by others.
It's just that the old guy is very cunning, so it will be difficult...
Wang Fugui, with a sad face, first found Zhang Heshun and told him everything.
Zhang Heshun was also worried about what happened last night. Shen Qing's reputation was not ruined, but their family's reputation was completely ruined.
The Feng family won't help them, the Hong family is completely offended, the Zhao family has a disabled person, and the village chief wants everyone to wait... What is there to be nostalgic about in this village? A tree that moves dies, a person who moves lives. It's better to go to Shili Village where there is a future!
He just didn't believe it. How could it be worse than in Qili Village?
When Zhang Heshun and Wang Fugui found the village chief, they saw Shen Qingguan, carpenter Wang Cui and others there.
It looked like they had just arrived and had something to say. Afraid of being at a disadvantage if they spoke later, the two of them rushed to express their opinions: "Village Chief, Qili Village is not just for the Zhao family. With so many families, are they all staying here to wait for Boss Zhao alone?"
Wang Cui's face flushed when she heard this. She stood up and asked, "So what do you two think we should do?"
In the past, the eldest brother and sister-in-law always took the lead when eating fish and shrimps in her house. Now that the head of the family is injured and his life is in danger, she doesn't expect them to help her in her time of need, but she never expected that they would take the opportunity to add insult to injury!
It is true that one can only reveal a person's true character when he encounters something.
"What else can we do? Without wasting time, of course we should stay with your Zhao family and wait... until it's done, then catch up." Wang Fugui said coldly.
In his opinion, the patient will not recover. If he has to use medicine, it will delay the recovery for a long time. It will take many days before he dies and is buried. There is no way he can make it in time!
Zhang Heshun took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire: "Village chief, you are the chief of the entire village. You have to think about everyone and not be soft-hearted."
Jiang Yang looked up at the two men, seeing their brows filled with pride and joy. He had a vague suspicion in his mind, and he quietly tested them: "If I plan to have the whole village stay and wait for Boss Zhao to get better, what do you two think?"
Wang Fugui and Zhang Heshun showed a hint of joy on their faces, but they quickly concealed it and said with deep sorrow, "Village Chief, you don't care about the lives of the rest of us!"
"Village Chief, are you relying on the fact that you're the only one who knows the route to Jincheng to manipulate us? You're forcing us to obey you! Are you, are you being true to your conscience and the friendship between us fellow villagers?"
"Oh? Then how can I be worthy of it?" Jiang Yang did not get annoyed and continued to ask.
Wang Fugui could no longer conceal the joy on his face, and said directly: "How about this, Village Chief, those of us who are willing to stay and wait can stay, and you can't force those who are unwilling, right?
I mean, if you want to leave, you can leave, but you have to tell us the route to Jincheng, so that it won't be considered as forcing us to stay!"
Zhang Heshun advised, "Village Chief, I know that it's more dangerous if there are fewer people outside, but you also have to consider those of us who want to arrive early. After all, you've been promoting the benefits of arriving early. You wouldn't have forgotten that, would you?"
Shen Qing understood.
Zhang and Wang came here to break up.
What a joy! I never thought happiness would come so suddenly.
She looked at Mr. Jiang, fearing that he would be reluctant to let her leave and would persuade her to stay.
The next second, Master Jiang's steady voice rang out: "I'll draw a route map for you later. You two can go around the village asking around. If anyone wants to leave first, this is a good opportunity to join us."
Wang and Zhang didn't expect it to be so smooth!
