Chapter 427 The Scene Returns to Calm (1/2)



However, the chaotic scene was temporarily restored to peace due to Zhu Sijin's death.

But everyone knows that this is just the calm before the volcano erupts.

Sure enough, Zhu Lei, who was kneeling on the ground, shouted orders at the top of his lungs.

"People from Zhulin Village, beat them up, beat them hard, and avenge Si Jin."

"Yes, village chief."

But before the people in Zhulin Village could move, Village Chief Li walked up to Zhu Lei.

"Zhu Lei, your grandson died in Xinghua Village. No matter what the reason was, we are all at fault."

"Of course it's your fault. If you hadn't been so slow to deliver the food and disobeyed in kicking Li Mengyue out, my Si Jin wouldn't have died. It's all the fault of you, Xinghua Village."

"Zhu Lei, calm down. If you hadn't brought people to our village to steal food, how could something like this have happened?"

Zhu Lei certainly knew that he had a lot to do with his grandson's death, but so what? He could never admit that he was the one who killed his grandson.

No matter what, he had to blame Xinghua Village for his grandson's death, so that he would have a reason to cause trouble for Xinghua Village in the future.

He had heard that every household in Xinghua Village now lived a good life, even better than their Zhulin Village.

This is not the case. Zhulin Village must be the largest village in Qingshan Town, and its water supply must exceed that of the other seven villages. It must not be stepped on by Xinghua Village.

He knew that he was getting older year by year, and his physical strength and energy were not as good as before, especially in his twenties. He clearly felt that he was old and could no longer lead the villagers to the original place to rob food as he did before.

However, under his leadership, the people of Zhulin Village became lazy and unwilling to do any farm work.

He knew very well that even if there had been no locust plague that year, the harvest would not have been much.

After all, he had never seen the grass on the ground be taller than the crops and still achieve a good harvest.

But there was no food, many places were hit by locust plagues, and his health was not good, so he could not support him to take the villagers to a farther place.

But it won't be long before winter comes. Even if the village has enough firewood for heating, people will starve to death without food.

The fact that Zhulin Village has been able to develop into such a large scale and become the largest village in the entire Qingshan Town is closely related to his efforts.

It can be said that Zhulin Village is the result of his life's hard work. He will never allow it to disappear like this. He wants to see Zhulin Village develop better and become the largest village in Wuning County and even Qingshan Prefecture. This is his lifelong wish.

He also paid a heavy price for this goal.

You have to know that he has nothing else to do but a lot of strength, and he doesn't want to farm honestly. Moreover, when he was young, he learned a few tricks from others, which makes him much stronger than ordinary people.

An accidental opportunity allowed him to taste the sweetness of robbing things. It did not require waiting for several months like farming, and it did not require carrying water, applying fertilizer, and weeding in the meantime, and even this did not guarantee a good harvest.

Once there is a drought or flood, or a locust plague like the one in 2009, there will be no harvest and people will have to live a miserable life with tight belts.

His grandparents and father's generation all lived like this, and he was fed up with it and wanted to change.

But he definitely can't study. Not to mention whether he is cut out for studying, he can't even afford the money to go to school. How can he study?
