Holding a thorny branch in one hand, Yue Jiuyue slapped Lin Jiaming's second sister's hand as she was about to push open the chicken coop door.
"Aww!"
Lin Jiaming's second sister instinctively pulled her hand back in pain, and the thorns stuck in the back of her hand immediately drew long bloody marks, and blood flowed out in an instant.
"Yue! You are too vicious! Look how badly you've hurt the second son!"
Lin Jiaming's eldest sister immediately stepped forward to protect her second sister.
"Yes! You have to pay for my medicine! And you also have to give me the chicken and the rabbit! I've lost so much blood, I need to replenish myself!"
Lin Jiaming's second sister immediately seized the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and bring the chickens and rabbits to her own home. So many chickens and rabbits would be enough for her family to eat for a while.
These words immediately touched upon the interests of others, especially Lin Jiaming's second sister-in-law, who immediately disagreed.
"Second sister! There are so many of us here, how can you bring the chickens and rabbits to your house?"
"I'm injured! I'm bleeding! I need to eat something!"
Lin Jiaming's second sister held up her injured and bleeding hand, grinned, and waved it triumphantly in front of her second brother's wife.
"If you want it, then try bleeding yourself!"
Lin Jiaming's second sister-in-law rolled her eyes in anger, turned her back, and ignored her.
Lin Jiaming's second sister didn't take it seriously, and instead said fiercely to Yue Jiuyue:
"Did you hear me! Quickly tie up all these chickens and rabbits! By the way, where did you put your sweet potatoes? Are they in the cellar? Where's the cellar?"
Yue Jiuyue smiled wickedly, waving a thorny branch as she answered her:
"What a pipe dream! You want rabbits and chickens too? And my sweet potatoes too? Even the magistrate wouldn't be so greedy! You see something good in someone else's house and want to take it all for yourself. You have quite the nerve! Even South Lake can't hold it all!"
With each word Yue Jiuyue spoke, she would whip Lin Jiaming's sister, sister-in-law, and siblings out of the house.
A group of women watched as Yue Jiuyue stood inside the door, smiling smugly, before slamming the door shut.
"Big sister, look at her!"
Lin Jiaming's second sister complained to her eldest sister.
Her older sister ignored her and was about to bang on the door when she heard the village chief loudly reprimanding them from behind.
"Lin Jiahua! You sisters have gone too far! When Jiaming's family was having a hard time, none of you came to visit. What, just because someone planted sweet potatoes, you want to come and steal them? My uncle would be so angry at you shameless dogs that he'd jump out of his coffin!"
The village chief was furious. The county magistrate was still at his house when Lin Chaodong and his brothers came to complain that a large group of people had come to their house to steal sweet potatoes, and Liu was so upset that she cried.
His prestige as the village head was completely destroyed in front of the county magistrate by these few good-for-nothings!
To make up for his insignificant face in front of the county magistrate, he could only choose to finish quickly, lest the county magistrate think that he, the village chief, couldn't even control a few women, and then how could he have a chance to be promoted to village chief in the future?
The village chief is not young anymore and will be retiring next year. Although it is mostly a family business passed down to the son, if he can make a good impression on the county magistrate, anything is possible, isn't it?
What about now?
Forget about leaving a good impression on the county magistrate; it would be good enough if he didn't lose his position as village chief!
