Chapter 103: Don't be disrespectful to Nuobao
The men from other villages had no idea of the status of little Nuobao in Daliu Village.
They just thought she was an ordinary little girl who dared to make decisions here because she was too arrogant.
"Oh, let me go home?" Xiao Nuobao pouted, his voice turned cold: "Are you sure?"
Several people from other villages looked up at him: "It's ridiculous, we are talking to a child who hasn't grown up yet, what nonsense are you talking to."
One of the men frowned and walked forward: "I'm saying, you people in Daliu Village are too unruly, how can you let a child shout here. Village Chief Yang, you are just too used to it, why don't you drag him down and beat him up, we can't even get water!"
As soon as these words came out, the villagers of Daliu Village were angry.
Want to beat their Nuobao?
What a big tone, it's like trying to make trouble!
The baby they held in their hands and were afraid of dropping it, can these rough men scold it? !
The village chief was furious. He rushed over with a raised eyebrow and kicked over the bucket of the man from the other village.
"Bah! You came to our village to fetch water, you should beg us, but you treat this as your own bed, and you dare to give orders?"
The village chief cursed in a rough voice: "You know, if it weren't for Nuobao, you wouldn't even be able to see the well water today, you ignorant things, I think you deserve to be beaten!" The villagers
didn't care about fetching water anymore. With red eyes, they left their buckets and surrounded the man from the other village.
Although Yang Tianmei was a woman, she rolled up her sleeves and rushed to the front: "Your village has no water, what does it have to do with us? It's you who have no manners and come to our big village. You dare to disrespect our Nuobao. Hurry up and compensate Nuobao, otherwise no one can leave!"
Old Li shouted fiercely: "In our village, no one is as valuable as Jiang's Nuobao. If you don't know, then I will use my fists to let you know!"
At this time, Zhang Xiucai also rushed over with his boys.
"Compensate our Nuobao."
"Otherwise, no one can leave!" Everyone gathered together and shouted in unison, and their fists were almost raised above their heads.
The men from other villages were stunned.
Daliu Village...what's going on? They
actually follow the lead of a two-year-old kid?
Are these adults crazy? This is simply unheard of!
At this moment, Xiao Nuobao was sitting on a bench, swinging her short legs and grinning.
Right now, only Daliu Village respects her.
But in the future, perhaps more villages, even Yuncheng, and even the entire Nanji Kingdom, will take her words as the criterion.
Under the coercion and curses of the crowd, the men from other villages finally couldn't stand it anymore, and hurriedly bowed their heads in the direction of Xiao Nuobao.
They kept saying that they were wrong.
Xiao Nuobao waved his chubby hands and asked the villagers to drive them out of the village.
After all, right now, taking care of the water supply in our own village is the most important thing, and there is no need to get angry over a few flies.
As for the two villagers who attracted these outsiders, Xiao Nuobao folded her arms and did not intend to condone them.
She stretched out her white finger and pointed at the two families: "You are not following the rules. According to the previous words, you will be punished and cannot come to draw water for five days. Effective immediately!" The faces of
the two villagers turned pale.
They all sat on the ground holding the buckets...
...
The drought is getting worse, and it is not only the villages that are deeply affected.
Water is also scarce in the city.
For example, Fengjing's private school has not allowed children to bathe for several days. Even when cooking, they dare not make more soups that waste water.
Jiang Fengnian was worried about Feng Jing and went to see him several times.
He saw that even the red date and wolfberry water that was usually provided on the small table in the private school yard was no longer available, so he knew that the private school was also in trouble.
Jiang Fengnian wanted to take his brother home, after all, daily cleaning was not a problem, but Feng Jing was ambitious and was afraid of falling behind in his studies.
"We have just been teaching the Nine Chapters of Arithmetic these days. If I go back, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep up." Feng Jing shook his head.
He was worried about his family and hurriedly grabbed Jiang Fengnian's sleeve: "By the way, brother, is my sister okay at home? I heard from my classmates in the private school that the water shortage in the villages below is particularly severe. Is Nuobao thirsty?"
Jiang Fengnian was just about to talk about the situation at home.
But seeing that he only asked about his sister, he couldn't help but tap his forehead: "You are a heartless person, you only have your sister in your eyes, why don't you ask how your elder brother is, I ran so far to give you pocket money for nothing."
Feng Jing shook his head.
Of course, he was also very concerned about his elder brother and mother.
But when he thought of his sister, he couldn't care less about asking others...
At this time, Jiang Fengjing remembered something, ran back to the dormitory, and took out a large ceramic cup with a lid.
Jiang Fengnian shook it and heard that it was full of water.
"Everyone in our private school can get a large ceramic cup of water every day. Big brother, you can bring it back home. It's enough for the whole family to quench their thirst." Feng Jing swallowed hard and said, "I ate fruit today. Anyway, I'm not thirsty, so I don't need it."
The city is next to the moat, and the water supply is better than that of other villages. Feng Jing is sensible, so he thought about saving some water for his family.
Although Jiang Fengnian was moved, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You should keep it for yourself. There are several people in the family. What can this little water do?"
He also took two water bags from the donkey cart.
"You don't know yet, our village is in such a bad situation now..."
Jiang Fengnian stuffed the water bag to Feng Jing and whispered in his ear: "In our village, only my sister can get water. Not only does our family have enough water, but we can also provide water to the village. You don't have to worry!"
Jiang Fengjing felt relieved when he heard it.
How could he forget?
My sister is a lucky star! She
has helped the family so many times before. When faced with such a critical moment, with my sister in charge, the family naturally doesn't have to worry.
He can finally put his mind at ease. After returning to the private school, he can concentrate on studying.
After arriving home, Jiang Fengnian told his younger brother about collecting water and asking him to bring it home, which made the whole family laugh.
"The fourth child is a good child. The eldest brother told him, which can be regarded as a reassurance for him. He can also settle down and devote himself to his studies." Li Qiqiao said with a smile.
Jiang Fengnian nodded, but also felt a little regretful: "But life is not easy at the private school. The children have a daily quota of water to drink, and even the eggs in the morning and the fruits at noon are halved. I heard from Feng Jing that the grass in their private school's vegetable garden has dried up, and those old hens have nothing to eat, and they don't lay as many eggs as before."
Feng nodded slightly.
"Who says it's not true? There's not enough water now, and the prices of vegetables, eggs, and fruits have all gone up. The board and lodging fees at the private school are fixed. In bad years, it's inevitable that the children's food and clothing will be worse."
Fortunately, Mrs. Feng didn't care too much about these things.
She reminded Jiang Feng to give the fourth child more pocket money when he goes back next year, as long as the child can eat enough there and doesn't go hungry.
At this moment, Xiao Nuobao was lying on the kang with his eyes squinting, and he just filled his own water tank with a few grunts.
When he opened his eyes, he heard that his fourth brother's private school was having a hard time.
She thought about it and opened her little mouth: "Mom, we can send some water to the private school, and we can also send vegetables, eggs, and fruits."
On weekdays, there are naturally many parents of students who send things to the private school.
But it is common to add icing on the cake, but it is precious to help in times of need.
If Feng Jing can be remembered by the dean of the private school this time, his future study will be smoother.
When Feng heard this, she thought it was feasible.
She listened to the lady and stood up and said, "This is a good thing. It happens that we can't eat eggs at home, and we have water. Tomorrow, let your eldest brother harness the donkey cart and take us to the private school!"
At this time, the Jiang family did not know that this decision would be crucial to Feng Jing's future examinations.
And a future disciple of the emperor will soon leave Dalui Village and stand out...
