Chapter 884 The Puddle Turned into a Mud Pond
Su Nuan didn't understand where Ling Yun's anger came from.
She tugged at Ling Yun's sleeve and asked, "What's wrong?"
She didn't think it was a big deal, she was just lazy and didn't want to convert the weight.
It's good to give them rice, and the husks can be used to feed chickens and ducks.
Ling Yun frowned and said, "Don't you understand the interests involved?"
Su Nuan shook her head in confusion. Could there be any problem with this?
Ling Yun said loudly: "What does it have to do with us whether these people can survive or not?"
Su Nuan wanted to say that it did matter, but she couldn't let Ling Yun lose face, so she said, "It doesn't matter."
Seeing that his wife didn't spoil the show, Ling Yun smiled happily, "So whether they have food or not is none of our business."
"You said you'd leave a cart of food, but a cart only holds a little over a thousand pounds. They'd be lucky if each of them could get ten pounds."
"But they keep making all sorts of demands. Why should we listen? Do we owe them anything?"
The villagers all lowered their heads and dared not breathe.
One hundred kilograms of millet can produce sixty to seventy kilograms of refined rice, which is far more than a cartload of grain.
Ling Yun snorted coldly and continued, "If we continue to obey, will they ask for oil, salt, sauce and vinegar after taking the food?"
Su Nuan clapped her hands, "Oh, yes, and salt, one pound for each person."
Ling Yun: "..." My wife is so kind.
Su Nuan smiled and said, "Just think of it as the money we paid for their construction technology, converted into food and salt."
"If they still can't find a way to survive after eating all this, then I have no obligation to care."
Ling Yun nodded, "Well, let them fend for themselves. After all, we don't owe them anything."
Su Nuan smiled slightly, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Ling Yun grabbed Su Nuan's hand and squeezed it, grinning foolishly. It was nice that his wife was giving him face.
But the next second, he asked with a cold face: "Aren't you going to stand up yet? Don't think I don't know. Now is your chance to reform."
At this time, there were several people kneeling in the crowd. They were all older men and women.
Su Nuan glanced at them indifferently and said, "Forget it. It will take a long time for us to come back after leaving here. Let's forgive them first."
Ling Yun nodded obediently, "Okay, I'll do as you say."
The two of them were being affectionate here, but the villagers still didn't dare to make a sound.
Anger showed on Long Aotian's face, and he glared at them with a look of disappointment.
Later, he smiled at Su Nuan and said, "The fairy is kind and does not bother with mortals like us. We will definitely remember the kindness of the fairy and the immortal king."
Su Nuan nodded, "Just remember it. Also, she's the one I've set my sights on. If I come here next time and find someone bullying them, I won't show any mercy."
Bai Qingshuang looked at Su Nuan with gratitude. With her words, her future life would be easier and no one would dare to bully her.
Long Aotian immediately shouted in a serious tone, "Did you all hear that clearly?"
The villagers nodded, "I heard...I heard it clearly."
Su Nuan added, "I will leave seeds for Bai Qingshuang. You should build a house for her first and have a cellar to store the seeds."
"From now on, you can exchange one pound of food for one pound of seeds with her, and five pounds of vegetables for one pound of vegetables."
After thinking for a moment, she took out a fist-sized night-shining pearl and said, "I will hang this bead in her room. If anyone defaults on their debt or makes trouble, this bead can record it and pass it on to me."
"Even if I can't make it in time, someone will help me teach those who bullied them a lesson."
These words were actually spoken to Bai Qingshuang's ex-mother-in-law, but all the villagers kept them in mind.
Bai Qingshuang's ex-mother-in-law looked at Bai Qingshuang in horror, her face full of regret. If she had not abandoned the mother and daughter, their family would have been protected by the gods in the future.
Now that she has severed her relationship with Bai Qingshuang, she can't even ask for money from Bai Qingshuang. She feels really angry and aggrieved.
Someone gloated and said, "Now no one can bully the White Widow."
"That's right, from now on you can't even fight the autumn wind!"
"Ha ha……"
Su Nuan was too lazy to listen to their idle chatter and said, "You can't cook by yourself now, so your village chief Long Aotian will organize people to make porridge."
"The rest of the people went to work. Some were cutting wood, some were gathering firewood, and the children and the elderly went to look around to see if there were any wild vegetables."
After Su Nuan made this arrangement, everyone understood it immediately and immediately divided the work.
Ling Yun gave the farm tools that Su Nuan took out to Long Aotian and asked him to distribute them.
When there are more people involved, houses can be built faster. Bai Qingshuang's house was half built before dark.
At night, everyone lay down on the ground at the edge of the forest to rest.
But in the middle of the night, everyone was awakened.
There is a strange sound floating in the dark night...
"Gululu...Pahji...Cluck..."
Su Nuan grabbed Ling Yun's arm and asked nervously, "What kind of monster is this?"
Ling Yun listened carefully and said, "This monster is quite big."
Su Nuan leaned closer to Ling Yun more nervously, and the narrow carriage became more spacious.
Ling Yun was very happy in his heart, but he didn't dare show it on his face, for fear that Su Nuan would stop hugging him.
He continued, "If this monster still has a lot to do with you."
Su Nuan held Ling Yun's hand tighter, "Does it have anything to do with... me?"
Ling Yun found it funny. The young wife's timid expression was so cute, which was rare to see.
But he didn't dare tease her any further and quickly explained, "Remember the depression we made during the day?"
Su Nuan nodded, "Remember..."
Her eyes suddenly lit up, "I know, it's a fish!"
Ling Yun nodded, "That's right, let's go and take a look. Judging from the sound, there should be a lot of fish."
Su Nuan suddenly lost her sleepiness and pulled Ling Yun out of the carriage.
The two came to the depression. Su Nuan shone the flashlight and could only see something surging in the depression. She couldn't tell clearly what kind of fish it was.
Su Nuan simply took out a high-intensity flashlight, pressed the switch, and it lit up half the sky.
Originally the depression was nearly 100 meters in diameter and more than ten meters deep, but now it is full of mud and fish.
The types of fish are very diverse. Catfish account for half of them, and there are also crucian carp, carp, loach, etc.
Moreover, the surface of the depression is full of water. If it is cleaned properly, it will become a good pond.
Ling Yun asked, "Do we need to collect these fish?"
Su Nuan thought for a moment and shook her head. "No, let them continue to struggle. Maybe we can draw out the groundwater."
"Besides, these fish are so dirty. I don't want them. Let them catch them themselves."
Ling Yun was happy. His wife must be worried about him and didn't want him to get his clothes dirty.
In fact, Su Nuan didn’t think so much. She just had enough food and drink and was not greedy for it.
Su Nuan poured a few more buckets of water, and the fish started to splash more vigorously, and even some wild animals were attracted.
Ling Yun pulled Su Nuan behind him and said, "There's a ferocious beast!"
