Chapter 112: She is the leader
At this time, the people of Daliu Village did not know that the black knife in the hands of the corrupt officials was already hanging over their heads...
They were still in high spirits, leading the way to the Jiang family for people from other villages.
Feng stood at the door to greet and see off people, and she was never idle.
The head of Qingquan Village, along with several other heads and village chiefs, came to give pork, eggs and snacks to Xiao Nuobao as a thank you.
"This rain really happened, all thanks to Nuobao. These small gifts are our little thoughts, please accept them." The head of Qingquan Village looked sincere.
He even hid fifty taels of silver in the egg basket as pocket money for Nuobao.
However, Feng refused all of them and just smiled and said, "Nuobao appreciates your kindness, but we can't take this thing."
"My daughter just happens to have some magical powers, and can tell fortunes, that's all, it's nothing, after you go back... this matter is not enough to tell outsiders, it's better not to publicize it."
Feng said tactfully.
What magical powers, what is not enough to tell outsiders... it's just a pretentious rhetoric.
Feng didn't care about other people's gratitude at all, and she didn't want her daughter to be put on a high pedestal by outsiders. All she wanted was for Nuobao to grow up safely and smoothly, without causing unnecessary trouble.
Li Zheng of Qingquan Village was a wise man: "Don't worry about this. I can't guarantee the same for other villages, but in our Qingquan Village, I have never mentioned the matter of little Nuobao to the villagers, and I will never say it in the future."
"Thank you, you should take this gift back. Nuobao is a sleepy child. She is sleeping now. I won't bring her out to embarrass her." Feng refused politely and even a little distant.
Li Zheng of Qingquan Village saw it.
Nuobao's mother really didn't want her daughter to become famous for praying for rain, so as to avoid trouble in the future.
He also understood it very well, so he took back all the things he brought and said goodbye to the Jiang family.
After leaving Dalui Village, Li Zheng of Qingquan Village looked up at the sky and sighed.
"I underestimated them, and thought that if I didn't come to thank them for such a great favor, they would be unhappy. I never thought that they don't care about these superficial reputations at all." The people in Qingquan Village were full of admiration.
The head of Xishan Village followed behind: "Ah? I heard that Zhang Fanjian and his friends are buying valuables in the city, and they are also coming to thank the Jiang family. Should we tell them not to come?" The people
in Qingquan Village frowned and nodded: "Tell them not to come. From now on, no one is allowed to go to Daliu Village and disturb Nuobao's family. Just say it was me who said it!"
He just said it, stroked his beard, and sighed again.
Although Nuobao's mother was reluctant to show off, Nuobao was not an ordinary person. It would be a matter of time before he ascended to a high position .
The people in Qingquan Village pondered for a moment and soon made a decision.
He was just a rough jade and could not compete with the bright pearls.
From now on, the head of all villages would no longer be their Qingquan Village, but Dalui Village.
When the villages had meetings again, the head of the village should no longer be him, but... Nuobao should be given the position!
...
In the afternoon, little Nuobao, wearing small cloth shoes, stepped on the still wet land, hopping and following his mother's buttocks, went to Fushantang to relieve boredom.
"The new shoes were just made. Your sister-in-law embroidered them for me. I've only worn them for a while, but they're already covered with mud." Mrs. Feng looked down and said helplessly, "Mom said she would take you away, but you didn't listen."
Little Nuobao stuck out her tongue mischievously.
"Nuobao is already two years old. I can't always let mom hold me. The old men will laugh at me!" Little Nuobao said confidently.
She wasn't making excuses.
There were a few old guys in Fushantang. As soon as they saw her lying in the arms of her mother or her brothers and sisters-in-law, they would say something like "her arms are swollen" or "her little flesh is chubby."
Little Nuobao got angry every time she heard it.
She even suspected that her round face was not because she was fat.
It was because she was angry with them!
Mrs. Feng nodded at the lady's forehead and didn't have time to talk about her. She took out the purse from her pocket and was about to pay the wages to Mrs. Liu and the second wife of Yang.
"Yin'er, I have put your wages in the account again. When the time comes, you can take a look and remember the amount." Mrs. Feng said.
Li Yin'er knew that the Jiang family would not lie to her, so she didn't even plan to look at it. She just smiled and thanked Mrs. Feng first.
She stood there, hesitant to speak.
"What's the matter, sister Yin'er?" Nuobao saw that she was worried and took the initiative to throw herself into her arms.
Li Yin'er touched the soft lump in her arms and hugged it carefully, fearing that hugging it too tightly would hurt her.
"Nuobao, auntie, I have something to ask you, but I don't know how to start. My younger brother Wencai..." Yin'er hesitated for a long time before whispering.
Little Nuobao guessed it immediately: "Oh, what's the matter! Sister Yin'er, do you want Wencai to go to the village school?"
Now, Li Wencai has been expelled from the private school and has become a "black household" in almost all major private schools in the city.
It is difficult for him to study.
Li Yin'er lowered her head and stammered: "Yes, Wencai has been unable to study and has not said anything at home. I thought that Zhang Xiucai was also a man who passed the imperial examination and is not much worse than the teacher in Wencai's private school. It would be good for him to learn some articles and math from Zhang Xiucai."
But she knew that her own mother had beaten Nuobao before, so it was really difficult to start.
However, when Xiao Nuobao and Feng heard this, they both agreed straightforwardly.
"The village school is for the whole village. It has nothing to do with our personal grudges. As long as they are children from the village, anyone can go to school." Xiao Nuobao raised his little face and smiled brightly.
Mrs. Feng nodded and added on behalf of the lady, "Just one thing, your mother is not allowed to make trouble in the school because of this. If she dares to make trouble in the school and disturb other children's studies, we can only persuade Wencai to quit."
Li Yiner was very excited and kept bowing, "Thank you, Nuobao, thank you, Auntie. I will definitely keep an eye on my mother and will never allow her to ruin Wencai's future again!"
Looking at Li Yiner's back as she ran home in a hurry, little Nuobao's head tilted. Why did she feel that Auntie Li would not be so worry-free...
At this time, Yang Laoer's wife had already received her wages. After thanking Mrs. Feng, she was going home to put it away.
Feng looked up and looked around, wondering: "It's strange, where is Granny Liu? She was more active than anyone else when giving out money in the past."
When Xiao Nuobao heard this, she helped her mother find Granny Liu.
With her hands behind her back, she imitated the village chief's patrolling of the village, and walked around Fushan Hall like a little adult, which made the old people laugh at her imitation.
Finally, Xiao Nuobao heard a burst of sobbing, and then she saw Granny Liu in Doctor Wu's medicine room.
Granny Liu was squatting beside the sand pot, secretly wiping her tears, her eyelids were swollen, and I don't know how long she had been crying.
"Grandma Liu, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Nuobao hurriedly grabbed the rag beside the stove and was about to wipe Granny Liu's eyes.
The smell of medicine made Mrs. Liu's eyes redder and more swollen.
She held Nuobao's hand and choked up, "I have raised a careless daughter, and I don't know what to do. Nuobao, do you have any idea to save my foolish daughter?"
