I have to say that what Asongbo did this time really pleased Jiang Xue, and she was very satisfied.
The tribe needs such people to take the initiative to help solve big and small problems. A tribe cannot develop smoothly relying on only one or two people.
That night, after dinner, she specifically introduced Ah San and Auntie to the tribe members, and also explained why Ah Er was taken away by Xiao Dao.
As soon as she finished speaking, someone said coldly, "Snow Witch, I believe you won't betray us, but Ah Er is originally from the Bluebird Tribe. If it weren't for his support, Xiao Dao and the others wouldn't have harmed us so badly."
As soon as this person spoke, he was immediately echoed by everyone.
"That's right. So many of our things were stolen and smashed. Not only our goats and silkworms, but they also killed people!"
"They killed a few newborn babies. How could they be so cruel?"
They kept arguing until Ah Er's face turned pale. His legs went limp and he fell to his knees. Just as he was about to say something in his defense, he heard Jiang Xue yell, "Ah Er, what are you doing? Get up!"
Ah Er knelt on the ground stubbornly and refused to get up.
Jiang Xue couldn't bear to look at him anymore after trying to pull him several times, so she looked at Mu Feng for help. Mu Feng understood and pulled him up from the ground without any explanation.
Seeing everyone standing up, Jiang Xue slowly scanned the faces of the tribe members. She said clearly, "I hope everyone will remember this: I have a saying here: trust people when you employ them, and don't employ people if you doubt them. This is the first time today, so I'll pretend I didn't hear anything. If it happens again, don't say I didn't warn you. Don't complain when I punish you!"
Jiang Xue also knew that what Ah Er said to her was completely his one-sided statement, but she chose to believe him, not because of how touching his story was, but because of his performance when he was in the Snake Tribe.
When he first entered the Snake Tribe, his identity was very awkward. He was insignificant and almost no one paid attention to him. At that time, he was a nobody and had no sense of existence at all.
But he did not give up on himself. Instead, he slowly integrated into the tribe in his own way.
When the tribe encountered problems, although Er did not show up at the first time, he was able to do his part quietly and not let everyone worry.
Even when he was teaching the Heavenly Demon Palm and the Seven Injury Fist to everyone in the tribe, he deliberately chose to ignore him, but he did not lose heart and still worked hard to complete his tasks every day.
Although Jiang Xue did not say these things, she saw them with her own eyes and kept them in her heart.
"What's going on here? Has all our suffering been in vain? Are we just going to give away the goats we worked so hard to raise? And those children... they didn't even spare such young children..."
"Alright, stop talking!" Jiang Xue said sternly. "A'er wasn't the one who killed the child, and it wasn't A'er who stole our goats. Besides A'er, how many of you can accurately describe the habits of goats? None of you can, but A'er can."
"He once asked me if every goat's lactation period was only that long. I told him that goats' lactation period is indeed shorter, but we can stimulate their nipples to increase milk production. You've never mentioned this before, but Er did it."
"You all know very well how Xiaodao knocked you unconscious and broke everything. Ah Er is actually a victim too!"
Jiang Xue grabbed Ah Er's hand and pulled up his sleeve, revealing the wounds on his arm: "Open your eyes and look carefully. These are all new wounds. Ah Er's injuries are actually no less than yours!"
She pulled up Ah Er's clothes again, revealing his back: "If you don't believe me, you can take a few more glances!"
When everyone looked at the injuries on his body, several women's eyes suddenly turned red and they wiped their tears secretly.
Jiang Xue calmed down before slowly saying, "Let's put this matter behind us. From now on, no one is allowed to mention it again! I called everyone here today not to discuss how to deal with Ah Er, but to discuss our next plan."
Jiang Xue finished speaking and glanced at everyone present. "Xiaodao completely destroyed the farmland we had worked so hard to cultivate, but we still have to live our lives. We can't just remember what happened yesterday. We have to look forward."
"We were careless this time, but I believe that with this lesson, everyone knows what to do."
Jiang Xue also felt very guilty. If she had not gone up the mountain to collect herbs and met the people of the Black Water Tribe and was abducted by them, Mu Feng and the others would not have given the Blue Bird Tribe the opportunity to find her.
"I just came back and checked everything. We actually still have some crops growing well in the fields, like our rice seedlings. Xiaodao and the others thought they'd be destroyed just by pulling them out, throwing them aside, and stepping on them. But they had no idea that rice seedlings are actually very resilient, not to mention that I also know the art of rejuvenation."
Rejuvenation can heal people and animals, so it can naturally heal these crops. Although Jiang Xue didn't know if it would work, she wanted to give it a try.
"So you have three main things to do tomorrow."
"First, our pottery needs to be re-fired. Those few people will still be responsible for making the pottery. We will start tomorrow."
