Chapter 242: Being Surrounded

"Okay, okay, stop exaggerating."

It's really exaggerating.

All the adults in the Jiang family couldn't stop laughing.

"You kid, you're done, haha." Jiang Eryong teased, and did not forget to pinch his niece's soft face with his hands.

The yard was filled with the Jiang family's laughter.

At this time, the entrance to the village was surrounded by people.

The scene was noisy.

It turned out to be a woman sitting under a big tree at the entrance of the village. She saw Jiang Lingu and his friends coming back from a distance and hurriedly informed the villagers. They came out one after another with bamboo tubes in their hands, wanting Jiang Lingu to take them away.

This is not.

The family of three was stuck in the crowd, unable to move.

Jiang Lingu looked at the hundreds of people in front of him and suddenly felt his scalp tingling.

"Lin Gu, you're finally back. Please settle the unpaid bills last time. The rice jar in my house is almost empty, so I have to go to town to buy some. You know, there are sixteen people in our family, and the little money you gave me before is not enough.

Look, we have made about 200 bamboo tubes in the past few days. You can collect them all. The money from selling them is just enough for us to buy brown rice. "

"Hey, stop crowding. Lin Gu can't run away. Come one by one. Who, who stepped on my shoes? Damn it, why are you so anxious?"

"Take mine first. My family made a lot, five baskets full, one basket with a hundred, exactly five hundred bamboo tubes, I charge ten for one cent, Lin Gu, you have to give me fifty cents, plus the eight cents you owe me before, you have to give me fifty-eight cents today."

"My dear nephew, I thought you wanted a lot, so I asked my sister to come and make some for us. Including hers, my family made a lot, a thousand bamboo tubes. So, I don't want the three cents you gave me last time, so you can just make the bamboo tubes this time."

"Aunt Liu, you are so shameless. Lin Gu is from our Jiangjia Village. How can you ask your sister from your mother's family to join you? Aren't you just being disloyal? No, you are not allowed to accept her. Lin Gu, if you accept her from her family, I will also call her my mother's family. Why should she be the one to do it?"

"That's right. You are not allowed to accept money from outsiders. We villagers don't even earn money, so why should outsiders earn it?"

These people are chattering away, one talking at a time.

Jiang Lingu was unable to get a word in.

His face was originally red from being tired from hurrying, but now it has become much paler.

"Lin Gu, since you have accepted their children, why don't you accept our children as well? We are all from the same village, don't be partial to one over the other. When you were little, your aunt held you in her arms."

Ma Qingmei, who had gone to Jiang Fubao's house to cause trouble last time, got sick.

I haven't learned to be smart yet.

It happens again this time.

She was seen holding Jiang Lingu's sleeve in a flattering manner, while her four sons behind her were each carrying a basket of bamboo tubes, with at least four or five hundred of them.

Not just her.

Several people who had conflicts with Zhang Jinlan all came.

Including Wang Xiulian and Widow Liu.

"I'm not here to collect bamboo tubes this time. Please move aside. I'm not feeling well. Let me go home first. I'll have a night's rest and we'll talk tomorrow."

Jiang Lingu couldn't think of an excuse for the moment.

I can only avoid it for now.

So many people surrounded him.

Not to mention that he is no longer the shopkeeper, even if he were, he couldn't collect so much.

"Oh, I just saw it, nephew, where did you get all these injuries? Did you run into bandits on the road?"

As soon as these words came out.

Everyone discovered that Jiang Lingu, who had been so arrogant and domineering when he came back last time, was now covered in bruises.

That’s not all.

There was also a big tear in the clothes on his body.

If this face wasn't so familiar to everyone, people would have thought he was a beggar from somewhere.

"Could it be that he offended the master and was chased away? Jiang Lingu, take my bamboo tube and bring me the money. I can't wait any longer."

There are also smart people.

Seeing his miserable appearance.

I guessed a little bit.

So she grabbed Jiang Lingu's arm.

Never let go.

After one of them took action, the rest of the people were worried that Jiang Lingu would not take so many, so they followed that man's example and squeezed forward, trying to catch Jiang Lingu.

Let him collect his own.

Poor Jiang Lingu walked for the whole afternoon with injuries.

No breath yet.

It was almost squeezed into a meat pie.

Maybe God thought he shouldn't die.

Jiang Guangyi, who was taking a walk, saw his son and his family surrounded by villagers.

He looked like he was about to faint.

He roared in anger.

"Get out of my way! If you guys cause any trouble to my Lin Valley, you all get out of Jiang Village! All of you will be removed from the family tree!"

Although Jiang Guangyi doesn't usually get involved in anything.

But he still has a way of scaring people.

I heard I was going to be expelled.

These people are like frightened birds.

Scattered everywhere.

Two-year-old Jiang Muyao burst into tears out of fear.

Jiang Guangyi was heartbroken.

He took his grandson from his daughter-in-law's arms.

"Oh oh oh~" he started to coax.

"What's going on? Why are you blocking the village entrance at this hour instead of going home for dinner? My Lin Gu is the boss of a shop. If he gets into trouble, will you go to the town to help him manage the people?

That's not right, Lin Gu, how did you get this on your face? Could it be that they beat you? It's unreasonable that they dared to hit my son. Tell me, whoever did that, I will drive him out of the village!"

The eldest son inherited.

Jiang Guangyi only has this one son left.

I have always favored him, and now I dote on him even more.

Seeing him injured, Jiang Guangyi became furious.

Chen Qiuju, who was enjoying the cool in the yard, also came over after hearing the noise.

"My son, what happened? Who hit you? What? Which damned little bastard did it? My son, does it hurt? Tell me who hit you. I'll ask your father to kick him out."

Chen Qiuju's eyes instantly turned red.

She pulled Jiang Lingu and looked him over carefully, up and down, left and right.

I was afraid that a bloody hole would suddenly appear on my son's body.

"Lin Gu, please explain yourself. You came back injured. What does that have to do with us? It's not even dark yet. It's broad daylight. Don't slander us."

The woman who just grabbed Jiang Lingu's arm.

Fearing she might be misunderstood, she quickly waved her hands to explain.

"Dad, Mom, it wasn't them, it's all Jiang Dahe's fault! If it weren't for them, I wouldn't have been beaten, it's all their fault."

Jiang Yahe, who was eating at home, suddenly sneezed.

"You didn't catch a cold, did you? Take a hot bath tonight, don't use cold water. It's very hot today, and maybe you got caught in the wind when you were sweating. Don't think you're healthy and don't take it seriously. You're getting older now, so you have to be more careful. Do you understand?"

Zhang Jinlan looked at her eldest son with concern.

Nagging.

"Oh, I understand, mom."

Jiang Dahe is very filial.

Not to mention that his mother cares about him, even if his mother asked him to die now, he would not hesitate.
