"village head!"
"Village chief! We're here!"
......
A commotion arose behind them, and they saw women, children, and the elderly from Fengjia Village, empty-handed or carrying wooden sticks, walking towards them.
Although not particularly heroic, the scene was still quite enviable.
Village Chief Feng turned around, seemingly somewhat moved.
Sister-in-law Feng and Feng Yun went to greet them.
"Auntie! What brings you here!"
Feng Ersao was also in the group, stepping out from the back.
She explained to her elder brother and sister-in-law:
"Everyone has been watching for so long, worried that our family would be bullied, so they insisted on coming on their own!"
“I left my child with my mother-in-law, and she came over too! It’s our family’s business, there’s no reason for someone else to do it for us while we just stay at home and wait!”
On behalf of his father, Feng Yun clasped his hands in thanks to the villagers.
Ruan Meng glanced around and saw that the women from the Song and Fan families were also among them.
Duan also arrived, and upon seeing Ruan Meng, nodded to her from afar.
Almost everyone in the village who could come out has arrived.
This also warmed Ruan Meng's heart. Although Fengjia Village was poor for the time being, as long as they were united, there would be plenty of ways to get rich in the future!
Wan You watched coldly, then turned his gaze to Feng Tao:
"What? Does Fengjia Village want a group fight?"
Feng Xi stood beside his father.
"Is this what you really think? If you want to fight, we're not afraid!"
"We don't need that many people, just the few of us are enough. Why don't we give it a try?"
If you were in Deng Zisong's or Feng Tao's shoes, there would be many things you couldn't say.
Even if Feng Yun, Feng Xi, and Feng's sister-in-law were furious, they couldn't act recklessly because their father and father-in-law were the village chief...
But Ruan Meng can!
She's a young girl, has no official position, and isn't very bright, so it's understandable that she's acting recklessly!
Wan You, as expected, glared fiercely at Ruan Meng. Ruan Zheng walked to her side, his eyes becoming even more frightening.
How dare you glare at his sister? You've got a death wish!
"Wanyou, this rain is too heavy, lest the villagers all get sick from the rain!"
"This stalemate is not a solution. We should discuss a solution as soon as possible to resolve the issue and prevent the misunderstanding from escalating."
Wanyou turned his head and looked at Ruan Qian and his siblings.
"I'm afraid that the conditions we propose..."
"Fengjia Village disagrees!"
Wan's words were clearly directed at something.
Ruan Meng frowned and looked at her older brother, Ruan Qian, who gave her a look that said, "Take it easy."
Deng Zisong: "Tell me about it! Whether it's feasible or not, we'll discuss it further."
Wanyou looked at Feng Tao.
Feng Tao's eyes were sharp; he had clearly guessed something, but he didn't reply.
Wan You smiled inscrutably, "I heard that Fengjia Village has gotten involved with Hejia Restaurant's seafood business..."
"Since it's the same whether we take over one village or two..."
"Our condition is that we, the residents of Wanjia Village, join us and we collect seafood from our villagers. Only then will we agree to Ah Chun's removal from the village register..."
As soon as Wan You finished speaking, the villagers of Fengjia Village took off their straw sandals and rushed over!
"Have you no shame? Village chief? Bah!"
“Ah Chun is a girl from our Fengjia Village, she’s not a scoundrel! She’s not a bargaining chip for you to use!”
"What? Just because we disagree, you're going to detain them and bully them however you want?"
"My lord! Look at these people, what kind of faces do they have? If you don't stand up for them, would Ah Chun even survive if she fell into their hands?"
......
Sister-in-law Feng coughed lightly, "Don't bring the magistrate along, don't put the adults in a difficult position!"
The loud-voiced village woman suddenly changed the subject, "I'm going to go to the city and spread this word, let everyone judge for themselves, is there no justice left!"
"Is it really that hard for a woman to survive? Does she have to shoulder the business of an entire village?"
"When her husband was alive, she took care of the whole family. After her husband died, she had to marry her lame brother-in-law. If she wanted to get out, she would have to help the whole village make a living?"
"Women have such hard lives! If you don't leave her a way out, what if she does something rash..."
Wanyou and the villagers changed color slightly. Ah Chun had considered it before, but Shuisheng was watching closely, so Ah Chun couldn't make a move.
But what if we go back to Fengjia Village and everyone is really gone?
