When Ruan Meng bought the most expensive set of clothes and shoes that could be bought in Nanxian, the village chief said nothing, but gently patted Ruan Meng's head with his withered hand.
A village woman, her voice choked with emotion, explained with a smile, "Young lady, when an elder pats your head, it's a blessing..."
Ruan Meng turned her head and found that the one speaking was Aunt Zhang, who had left a deep impression on her during the last confrontation with Wanjia Village.
Ruan Meng nodded and handed over the clothes and shoes.
Aunt Zhang is a quick-witted person. The villagers had already found a set of clothes and shoes that Grandma Liu usually wore, and they were just waiting to be covered with soil.
Aunt Zhang covered the worn clothes with the expensive clothes and shoes that Ruan Meng had bought, and said a blessing:
"Grandma, you're so lucky! This girl I've only known for a month has bought you such nice clothes and shoes!"
"It's because of your kindness that we all gathered together. Everyone received the gifts you left! Thank you for thinking of everyone before you left, and for not wanting to cause any trouble..."
"In your next life, come back to our Fengjia Village, and we will tell the younger generation that we will treat the elders well in the future!"
"If you don't want to, go to the other side of the strait, where you can have a better family and no more suffering!"
After hearing what Aunt Zhang said, everyone present choked up.
Led by the village chief, everyone covered Grandma Liu with a layer of soil, giving her a grand funeral.
With her husband and son by her side, Grandma Liu will not be lonely.
Although Granny Liu has no other living relatives besides that beastly nephew, it goes without saying that so many people remember her and her grave will never be deserted.
As Ruan Meng had reminded her, the eldest sister-in-law called over Sister-in-law Feng and Sister-in-law Feng Er for help. The sisters-in-law from the Song and Fan families also came over to help after settling their own children.
Everyone helped until dawn, which can be considered as keeping vigil for Granny Liu.
The villagers dispersed, leaving only a few people from the village chief's family behind.
As they calmly recounted what they had done to Granny Liu's nephew, Feng Yun and Feng Xi's composed expressions revealed a hint of relief.
"If what I did today causes trouble for the village, I will take full responsibility."
Ruan Meng truthfully stated.
She wasn't worried about Granny Liu's nephew retaliating, but after her brainwashing, she knew that the beast and Wanyou would definitely settle scores, and Wanyou's actions wouldn't end there.
Whether it's retaliation or arranging for other villagers to cause trouble in Fengjia Village, it won't end there.
"What are you saying, little sister?"
Feng Yun spoke up, "You did what we wanted to do, but were unable to do."
"When Granny Liu passed away, I wanted nothing more than to beat that beast to a pulp! But he's locked up in jail, and we can't even get in!"
"Once he comes out, our Fengjia Village won't be able to pretend nothing happened!"
"Now that you've taken on the responsibility and contributed money and effort, how could we possibly let you bear the consequences if there are any follow-ups?"
"If we're going to take responsibility, our whole village will do it together!"
Feng Xi chimed in, "Although my younger sister is younger than us, she's the most responsible! In the past, we were always bullied because we were too hesitant and overthinking things!"
"Now that someone has died, if we continue to let ourselves be bullied, we'll only be trampled underfoot even more in the future. Don't worry, little sister, we'll face anything together!"
The village chief's back seemed to straighten a bit when Ruan Meng first saw him.
It's not easy for the village to find people who are capable and willing to take responsibility; they absolutely cannot hold us back!
His voice was heavy, but his words contained no accusation.
"Little sister, don't be afraid! This grandson is only causing trouble because of Wan You's instigation."
"It's impossible to guard against someone with malicious intent! If it's not Granny Liu's family, it could be someone else's!"
"We haven't even made a move yet, and we're already being targeted. It's good to teach them a lesson! If they still want revenge, our Feng Family Village will never be cowards again!"
"good!"
That's exactly what Ruan Meng wanted to hear.
"Uncle Feng, Brother Feng, Second Brother Feng, you go back and rest first. Come to our house for dinner tonight. I have something to discuss with you all."
The Feng family had a gut feeling that what Ruan Meng wanted to discuss was very important, because she usually handled things lightly and rarely took such a serious moment.
The Feng family left immediately. Ruan Meng walked past Sun Chengen and said to A Yuan and her third brother:
"Please, both of you, gather as much seafood as you can while we're out beaching. We have important business to discuss at noon, and we're entertaining guests tonight!"
After saying that, without waiting for the two to react, she leaned against her second brother's back and fell asleep.
