"Stop hitting us, uncles, grandpas, grandmas, it's us, we're from the Jia family."
Only then did the villagers belatedly realize what was happening and stop.
Chen Qingshan's expression was cold and stern.
Chen Dashui held a wooden stick in his hand.
He slammed his fist into the ground.
"A leopard can't change its spots. These two beasts should be beaten to death. That's someone else's grain. Who gave you the audacity to steal it?"
The sheer force of it was astonishing; the dust on the ground was kicked up by the wooden sticks.
The villagers originally wanted to plead for them.
Seeing the other party's imposing manner, they all shut their mouths.
Chen Gui was also invited over.
"Has Da Zhu's father returned yet?"
Regarding this matter...
Chen Gui was also caught in a dilemma.
The old woman from the Jia family cried out, "My good-for-nothing son has made a mistake. Please, everyone, have mercy on them. They're just children!"
Tiger's mother scoffed, "Child my foot! Many things can only be done once or twice, not three times. Does your Jia family keep stealing from others because you think they're easy to bully?"
The old woman from the Jia family cried and wailed.
"My child is only trying to get food, and he didn't even manage to steal it. How can you do this? You're trying to drive me to my death. Xu, come up here and take them all away!"
"Enough, shut up!"
Chen Gui scolded.
"Now, everyone, raise your hands to vote. If you agree to bring the Jia family brat to justice, stand on the left; if you agree to expel the Jia family brat from the clan, stand on the right."
"ah!"
The old woman from the Jia family was terrified and her face turned pale.
Whether they were expelled from the clan or thrown into the hands of the government, they would not fare well.
Moreover, strictly speaking, the Jia family is not a member of the clan at all; they are outsiders.
When I first came to Qingxia Village, I was drawn to the fact that the village had a diverse range of surnames, which made it seem less united.
Clan Chief and Li
The village head couldn't rule the place with absolute authority, which is why they came here to settle down.
If we drive them out, where can we find a village with such complicated surnames?
If they were to find a village where everyone shares the same surname, an outsider like them would be bullied to death.
The villagers were in a state of chaos and didn't have any objections for a while.
And surprisingly, they were roughly equal.
Jia Yue cried, "Uncles, aunts, and grandfathers, please give our family a way to survive! Our land has been eaten clean by locusts, and my older brother was just at his wit's end and made a mistake..."
The girl was truly pitiful to behold.
She suddenly knelt on the ground, tears falling in a steady stream.
She burst into tears.
It's so beautiful it makes one feel sorry for the person who saw it.
More subtle.
Most villagers agreed to remove them from the family genealogy.
The discussion was very loud, and Chen Xian could hear it clearly while lying in the grass.
Humanity's inherent weakness throughout history: an indiscriminate sympathy for the weak, regardless of principles.
Does being poor mean I'm right, or that I'm weak mean I'm right? Should I act according to principles?
Chen Xian got up and patted the weeds off his clothes.
"Let's go see what's going on."
The villagers were the first to see Chen Xian approaching.
"Look, Da Zhu's dad is back. Let's hear what he has to say."
