Chapter 28 Kneeling down before Nuobao
Within half a day, the disaster at Donglazi Mountain spread throughout the area.
The villagers of Daliu Village gathered in front of the millstone and were shocked when they heard the news.
"Donglazi Mountain is a sinner. I don't know what Liu Huai is thinking. He suddenly said he wanted to dig the mountain to find silver." Someone who was well-informed came back and said in shock.
"Their village originally lived on the mountain, but... after digging twice, the mountain collapsed, and the villagers in the village were crushed under the rocks."
"The blood dyed the ground red at the time. When the surrounding villages came to help, no one was alive!"
After hearing this, the villagers were shocked.
Someone trembled in his voice: "So, all the people in Donglazi Mountain died?"
Isn't this exactly what the daughter of the Feng family said?
Looking at the shed behind him that had not been rebuilt yet, the village chief's heart suddenly skipped a beat, as if he had fallen into an abyss. His legs could not hold up and he sat down on the ground.
"If I had agreed to Master Ma that day, the 180 people in our village would be dead now!" The village chief's face had lost all color, leaving only a pile of wrinkles.
When everyone heard this, their calves trembled.
So, the daughter of the Feng family really passed on the message for the ancestors.
Helped them escape a disaster? !
Originally, there were people in the village who envied Donglazi Mountain, thinking that they had made a big profit and got money and food.
Now that I think about it, there is nothing wrong with what they picked up.
It was clearly a disaster!
For a moment, the villagers' eyes were red, some were shocked and tears were streaming down their faces, and some were scared to the point of peeing and farting, and they all crawled towards Feng's house.
Even Aunt Li opened her mouth wide.
No way, is it really such a coincidence?
Feng's daughter was right!
She didn't care about the rumor of syphilis, and was just glad that her village didn't suffer this disaster. With her legs still shaking, she followed the villagers and ran to Feng's house to express her gratitude.
After Jiang Fengnian found out about the Donlazi Mountain and came back to tell the whole family, Feng was not surprised.
She knew that the daughter would not be wrong.
It was just that she felt a little emotional after hearing that a whole village had been wiped out. She stood by the door frame for a while, and then she saw the villagers rushing into her house.
As soon as they entered the house, they wanted to kneel down to Feng.
"Jiang Lao San's family, if it weren't for your daughter, our village would be finished!"
"How can we thank your family?"
"Before, I complained that your family ruined our village. Now that I think about it, I really want to slap myself to death."
The men in the village didn't care about their dignity at this moment. They kept thanking her with red eyes.
The women had already cried. They
just wanted to rush over and hug Feng.
They were all villagers who had lived together for many years. Seeing them like this, Feng was also a little moved and quickly helped the few in front of her up. It was just that if the daughter of a noble family
was too high-profile, it would inevitably arouse suspicion. So Feng didn't say much, but just deliberately said: "My daughter of a noble family is a lucky person. She just happened to be able to pass on the message of the ancestors. It's nothing. If you want to thank someone, thank the ancestors of our village." The words of ancestors' blessing can shock the villagers and will not arouse too much suspicion about the identity of the daughter of a noble family. After all, children sometimes have a third eye and can see things that ordinary people can't see, which is understandable. When Xiao Nuobao heard this, she cooperated with her mother. She lay on the back of her second brother, acting like a little adult, and frowned with a chubby face with baby fat. "Yes, yes, you are blessed by our ancestors because of your hard work and solidarity. You must continue to work hard in the future and not damage the blessings of our village." She even deliberately lowered her voice. The villagers thought that it was really the ancestors who were telling them the truth. They knelt on the ground one by one and kowtowed to Xiao Nuobao. "Bang!" "Bang bang!" The villagers' heads banged and some of them had broken skin and bleeding on their foreheads. Li Qiqiao gasped. The village chief was in tears: "Ancestors, I, Old Yang, swear here that I will lead the village and live a good life in the future, and no longer think about making money by taking shortcuts." Seeing this, Xiao Nuobao smiled secretly and nodded in a pretentious manner. "Yes, yes, that's good. But you have to keep your word. I've been very worried and tired. I need to go to the kang to rest. You guys should go back soon." Anyway, she was supported by the world, so she could bear the kowtows of these people. She was just afraid that she couldn't pretend anymore, so she signaled everyone to get up. However, this saved the lives of the whole village, which was a great favor. Even if Xiao Nuobao asked them to get up, the village chief still took the lead and knelt on the ground. Helplessly, Xiao Nuobao couldn't force it. So he could only be carried back to the kang by Jiang Fenghu to rest amid the sound of kowtows. After Xiao Nuobao entered the house, the old village chief raised his red forehead and then led the villagers to get up. Feng thought this matter was serious. After thinking for a while, she whispered to the village chief: "Such a big thing happened in Donglazi Mountain. It will not only alarm the government, but also the surrounding villages will definitely talk about it. If others know about the relocation of the tomb, I am afraid that our village will also be regarded as a disaster." The village chief nodded hurriedly. "Don't worry, Jiang Laosan, I know what to do about this matter. I was careless before and almost caused a big disaster for our village." The village chief clenched his fists guiltily. Then his face full of grooves showed a firm look again. "So this time, whether it is our village or Nuobao, I will protect it tightly and never let this matter cause us trouble again." The old village chief said in a deep voice. Feng felt relieved after hearing this. He no longer had any worries. After escaping the disaster, the villagers were all very grateful. But the second wife was the only one who had a hard time.
Although under the order of the village chief, everyone kept silent about the fact that the lucky star protected the village and it escaped the disaster.
But the incident of Donglazi Mountain was strange after all.
Rumors soon spread to other villages, linking the destruction of the village to the relocation of graves.
In addition, Jiang Dahe had boasted before that he was the one who reported the news to Donglazi Mountain, so he took the lucrative job of the Ma family's relocation of graves.
Therefore, many people in other villages did not know about the incident in Dalui Village, and only believed that Jiang Dahe had brought the disaster to Donglazi Mountain.
Two villagers in Donglazi Mountain were not there that day and escaped the disaster. Now they hate Jiang Dahe and his mother, thinking that he had received benefits from the Ma family and cheated Donglazi Mountain, and vowed not to let him go.
In the past few days, Jiang Dahe dared not leave the village at all. Old
Mrs. Jiang lay on the kang and cried every day.
"My dear nephew, I miss you so much. How come you died before you even spent all the money?"
Jiang Dahe was frustrated and wanted to cry: "My cousin should have died later. He said he would share some money with our family, but he didn't give it to us until now. Now he is dead. Didn't I go to report the news in vain? My money!" It was bad
enough that he didn't get the money. What's worse, he also aroused hatred.
Old Mrs. Jiang looked at her two red and swollen eyes and sighed: "Son, don't think about money. These days, you should stay in the village honestly and save your life first."
