Chapter 184 You have to pay for water from now on
Wang Decai sucked his bleeding fingers and looked up at the dozen or so servants he had brought with him to guard outside.
No one knew what happened to the dozen or so people. They stood outside the shed, motionless, as if they had been hit by a needle.
Wang Decai was so angry that he walked up to the servant closest to him and kicked him.
"What are you doing?! You can't even keep an eye on two grown men? And you're still going to let them cause trouble for us?!"
He kicked with great force, but the servant didn't move at all. Apart from the pained look on his face, he didn't even move a finger.
Wang Decai felt something was wrong.
"It's just a point of acupuncture. It will be untied in an hour." Nan Xuan said indifferently.
Wang Decai's hand holding the pipe trembled again.
"Let's go! Go back to Heishui Village!" He shouted angrily to Wang Lizheng beside him.
Wang Lizheng didn't dare to say a word and just followed him happily.
He hadn't taken a few steps when he suddenly heard the voice of the village chief Liu from behind: "Old Wang! We have a long-standing friendship, and it's not something we can just end. If you still want to drink water, come back to Feishui Village!"
When Li Zheng Wang heard this, he was secretly delighted. He stopped and turned around to thank Li Zheng Liu.
Unexpectedly, he had just opened his mouth when he heard Liu Lizheng continue: "It's just that we just broke up, so I can't give you food for free. From now on, whenever you people from Heishui Village come to our village to draw water, I will charge you ten cents per bucket. It will be worthwhile for our friendship over the years!"
Wang Lizheng choked on the words he was saying and rolled his eyes in anger.
Wang Decai was so angry that his entire body was shaking. He grabbed Wang Lizheng by the collar and shouted, "Why are you still wasting your time talking to them? Get out of here!"
Wang Decai left with Wang Lizheng, and Li Ma naturally took Wang Guikang away as well.
Liu Lizheng looked at the quick steps of these people, sighed with relief, turned his head and said to Nan Xuan: "Hey, little brother, your method is really good, it really makes me feel better!"
"That's right," Nan Xuan smiled. "From now on, if they want to come and get water, they have to pay. If they don't pay, they either have to take a long detour or go without water. This time, we're making a profit."
The people from the two villages who came to watch the event were amazed at the excitement. The people from Feishui Village had happy faces, but the people from Heishui Village were miserable and went back with sad faces.
From now on, you have to pay for water. Ten cents a bucket is not cheap.
But if you don't fetch water from Feishui Village, you have to go to Dawang Village. That village is too far away, more than 20 miles away, and not every family has an ox cart. It is time-consuming and laborious to fetch water on foot.
This matter has finally been settled.
Baoya happily hugged Gu Wang's neck and mooed at him: "Gu Wang, you are so awesome! You scared them in an instant!"
The lonely king was praised and wagged his tail with joy.
It raised its head and let out a long "Awooo" cry, which scared everyone present.
Liu Lizheng frowned and stared at it for a long time before he said uncertainly, "Baoya, tell me the truth, is it really a dog? Why do I think it looks a bit like a wolf? Its howl is similar to that of a wolf, too."
"Haha," Baoya laughed and said, "It is a dog, but it is used to running around in the mountains. It is not much like the dog we have at home."
"Oh~" Liu Lizheng finally breathed a sigh of relief. "I was wondering, the way it stared at Wang Decai just now was really scary."
Seeing that the problem was solved, the villagers who were watching the excitement dispersed. Liu Lizheng called a few young and strong men in the village to help dismantle the temporary shed, and then went home.
Zhao Zhilan was in high spirits as she called her three sons and four other children to go home together.
Nan Xuan and Jing Zhen said goodbye to Zhao Zhilan and the others, and took the lonely king with them, strolling towards the town.
Originally, they went down the mountain today to visit the shops in town, but they also helped Baoya and the others solve a troublesome problem.
Zhao Zhilan, Dalang, Erlang and Sanlang didn't think there was anything wrong with it, and sent the two men and the wolf away with many thanks.
On the way back, Yun Yue and Yun Chenglu were in high spirits and were still talking about what had just happened.
"Why are all the people close to the Wang family fat?" Yun Yue said, counting on her fingers: "Master Wang, the silly young master, that Madam Li, and the head of Heishui Village, Wang Lizheng, are all fat."
Yun Chenglu thought about what she said and realized that it was true.
Suddenly, he burst into laughter: "Hahaha, maybe the Wang family is rich and can take good care of these people."
"Hmph!" Yun Yue snorted, hands on her hips. "What's the point of keeping him so fat? He's just a big shot and will only bully others!"
"Then they can't bully us," Yun Chenglu said, amused by her angry look. "You're not still holding a grudge against that Wang family servant who glared at you, are you?"
When the servant was mentioned, Yun Yue became angry again: "Don't mention him! It's so rude to provoke a child!"
Baoya listened to the conversation between the two and laughed with her hands covering her mouth: "Fourth sister, it's not that you have a big brain, it's that you have a fat brain."
Yunhua also covered her mouth, laughing so hard that she fell backwards, and jokingly said, "Yueya, are you craving for some large intestines?"
"Ugh!" Yun Yue quickly covered her mouth and pretended to vomit, "Who wants to eat this? Disgusting!"
The four children chatted and laughed, and arrived home in the blink of an eye.
Zhao Zhilan, Dalang, Erlang and Sanlang had already gone back before them. At this time, they were in the yard, talking to Li Chengyong who came to repair the threshold of her house.
Li Chengyong, holding a trowel and a bucket of plaster, greeted Zhao Zhilan, "Aunt Zhao, I've finished plastering your door threshold. I'll be going back first."
"Thank you for your hard work," Zhao Zhilan said, "Come inside and rest for a while and have some water."
Li Chengyong is an honest and serious person, and he has a miserable life. Zhao Zhilan has an overflowing maternal love for him, and always wants to help and take care of him more.
"No, I have to go back quickly. My sister-in-law is urging me to go back." Li Chengyong grinned and forced a smile.
After saying that, he turned around and walked out.
Zhao Zhilan sensed something was amiss and stepped forward, grabbing his arm. "Wait a minute, is there something wrong at home?"
Li Chengyong shook his head, thinking about the troubles at home, and didn't want to hide it from Zhao Zhilan, so he said truthfully:
"I'm sorry to have worried you, auntie. Actually, it's nothing serious. My sister-in-law found me a girl. I met her last time, and this time she asked me to go back and get along well with her."
Would Zhang Xiu'er be so kind as to find a girl for Li Chengyong? Zhao Zhilan didn't believe it.
"Whose girl is she?" she asked.
Li Chengyong scratched his head, a little embarrassed: "She is the girl from the blacksmith's family in Dawang Village."
