The villagers looked at the three people in front of them with anger.

The old village chief sighed and left with his two sons, but the other villagers were not so easy to talk to.

Among the returning group were two women in their thirties who went up to the woman lying in the oxcart groaning and started beating her.

"They don't even know their own worth; they're just people who toil in the fields for a living."

"Why do you think the young princess would even look at your son? Take a good look at yourself in the mirror!"

One of the women got angrier and angrier as she talked, thinking about how good her job was.

Because this family was lost, their movements became increasingly heavy.

The cook was wailing on the oxcart, and Dazhu quickly went over to stop her.

"Why are all of you like this?"

We're from the countryside, after all.

"My mother only made a mistake temporarily, how could you hit her?"

Upon hearing this, the young woman who had hit the man roared, "Don't you even know who you are?"

Who says we're from the countryside? You're cutting off people's livelihood and you still have the nerve to call yourselves from the countryside? Bah!

The other villagers also gathered around, eager to get involved.

This is the first time I've heard the young princess say that she will not accept anyone from this village who comes to visit her in the future.

It's easy to imagine that this has thoroughly offended the young princess.

Many of them plan to apply for the job soon.

Little did they know, this family would ruin everything.

"Mom and Dad, sob sob... I have such a good job, and I'm about to be promoted to team leader."

The person in charge said I did a good job and told me that if I worked for another two or three months, I would be promoted to be in charge of that group.

I heard that the group leader can earn 5 to 6 taels of silver a month.

Mom and Dad, I was planning to come back and tell you this good news when I had some time off.

And the person in charge even gave me a raise, boohoo.

The family was so angry when they heard their daughter say that they gritted their teeth.

"Everyone, we are all from the same village, but since something like this has happened in the village, the village chief should kick this family out."

Don't think it's heartless; this is also for the sake of our future generations.

This young princess keeps opening factories and shops, and has even expanded to other cities.

Although we can live quite well with a yield of several thousand kilograms of grain per mu.

But who doesn't want a better life?

Our house is so big it'll collapse in the wind. Who wouldn't want to earn more money to rebuild it?

Who wouldn't want to buy a couple more acres of land? In my opinion, this family should be evicted.

The one speaking was the woman's biological father.

What does five or six taels of silver mean? That's more than their entire family's annual income.

Dazhu was also quite troubled by the villagers' appearance.

"Uncle, we're from the same village, after all these years."

If you drive us out, aren't you sending us to our deaths?

"Don't call me uncle, I have absolutely no connection with your family."

"If we don't drive you out, we won't be able to survive."

Just then, a woman suddenly squeezed through the crowd and started slapping her thigh.

She had already learned the whole story from among the noisy villagers.

"If you want to kick them out, then kick out my mother-in-law and brother-in-law. It has nothing to do with our family!"

When Dazhu heard his wife say that, he quickly went over and pulled her aside.

When Dazhu's wife saw her husband like this, she was so angry that she slapped him.

Are you all wrong?

It was clearly my mother-in-law and brother-in-law who made the mistake. Are we supposed to make our whole family pay for it?

After following you for so many years, I've only just realized you're a spineless coward who only knows how to smooth things over.

Dazhu just covered his face and lowered his head when he was hit, because at home, his wife was the one who made the decisions.

If it's something my wife has decided, I can't change it.

The others looked at Dazhu's appearance and sighed and shook their heads.

It's truly pitiful to marry a shrew; she beats you at the drop of a hat. Sigh.

Immediately afterwards, the second wife's family also gathered around.

"What's going on? There are so many people."

Cuiping, the second wife's daughter-in-law, thought something had happened.

Pushing through the crowd, I found my mother-in-law and brother-in-law lying on the oxcart.

Most importantly, everyone around looked furious.

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong?"

"Let me tell you, our mother-in-law and brother-in-law have offended the Princess's mansion."

The young princess specifically mentioned it.

They won't let anyone from our village work there anymore; to put it bluntly, even if someone from our village goes, they won't be hired."

Upon hearing this, Cuiping's mouth dropped open.

Originally, I thought that since my mother-in-law was so good at making money, my husband could finish the chores around the house and then we could move on.

I heard that a new factory has opened and is hiring a lot of people.

All her previous plans fell through, and she harbored hatred towards her mother-in-law and brother-in-law.

The village entrance was noisy.

The village chief had already gone home, but he was called back by the children from the clan elder's family.

"What are you all doing gathered here? What can we do now that things have already happened?"

Even if we drive them out, he's still one of our villagers.

Even if someone comes from within the village, they definitely won't be accepted.

It would be better to think about how to salvage the situation. If all else fails, expel them from the family genealogy and split the village into two.

The others were completely bewildered upon hearing this.

How could such a perfectly good village be divided into two villages?

Just then, one of the older men seemed to have thought of something and looked excited.

"Yes, the village chief is right. Our village is actually a merger of two villages."

Even in terms of household registration, it was a merger of two villages, mainly because one of the villages only had a dozen or so households at the time.

That's why it was merged with our big village.

Most importantly, Dazhu's family happened to be one of those dozen or so households.

Everyone who heard this roughly understood.

"If that's the case, then he's not from our village."

Suddenly someone said something, and everyone else got excited too.

Those who were sent back only then realized what was happening and hurriedly left.

They wanted to go back and give it a try; maybe they could succeed!

The commotion at the village entrance finally came to an end, and Dazhu drove the oxcart to take his mother and younger brother to the courtyard.

He then pulled along his fellow villagers who were also going to the capital.

Dazhu also hoped to gain the forgiveness of these people, but they showed no mercy whatsoever.

They brought these villagers to the capital.

The group of people went together to find the factory manager.

“We’re not from the same village as that cook from the young princess’s mansion.”

Upon hearing this, the manager frowned.

"You say it's not true, but where's the evidence?"

Upon hearing this, the group quickly took out what they were holding.

"Look, this is clearly written on the travel permit. I am from Xinghua Village, but the cook is from Liuye Village."
