But it didn't matter, she just wanted them to stew the rabbit.
Now that she has chopped up the rabbit, she should have no reason to refuse!
When the wife of the village chief saw the rabbit meat on the chopping board, she smiled and said, "Tonghua, there's no need to buy meat. Just cook rabbit meat."
"Oh!" Wang replied happily.
She didn't want to go to town to buy meat. Not to mention how long it would take, ten cents could only buy a little over half a pound of meat.
Instead, this money can buy two kilograms of miscellaneous grains, enough for the whole family to eat full meals for a few days.
Seeing her daughter-in-law start cooking, the village chief's wife pulled Mengyue to sit in the main hall and wait for the village chief to come back.
"Yue girl, let's go to the main hall and wait for your grandfather."
Thinking about the matter from the previous day, Mengyue still hadn't dealt with it yet, so she followed her grandmother's lead and walked out of the kitchen.
As soon as the two walked out of the kitchen, they heard Zebao's voice.
"Sister Yue, I called Grandpa back."
Then I saw the village chief behind Zebao.
"Yue girl is here."
When the village chief saw the girl standing in his yard, he felt that his humble home was brightened up.
It's just that the second son's daughter is so beautiful.
He had lived half his life and had never seen any daughter. Even without saying anything, just standing there, he could attract people's attention at a glance. He was like a walking luminous body.
"Grandpa Village Chief, I have something to ask you."
"What's the matter? Grandpa will never refuse to help if he can."
"Hey, you two are chatting in the yard. Why don't you go inside and talk?" The village chief's wife teased as she saw the two, one big and one small, standing and talking.
"Yes, yes, yes, I'm getting old and confused. Come on, Yue girl, let's go to the main hall and talk."
The village chief walked in front with his hands behind his back, and Mengyue followed behind him.
After the two sat down, Mengyue did not directly say that there would be a locust plague in a month, but just placed a bunch of grasshoppers she caught in front of the village chief.
"Grandpa Village Chief, these are the grasshoppers I caught in the field."
"Girl Yue, if you want to say something, there's no need to beat around the bush in front of Grandpa."
When the village chief saw the grasshopper in front of him, he thought of something and his heart was in turmoil, but his face remained as calm as a mountain.
You know, the reason why he went to the ancestral hall was because he had a strange dream the night before, in which his ancestors appeared in his dream.
He was scolded for being an unfilial son, saying that the locust plague was about to come, but he acted like no one was around and did not make any preparations in advance.
Ask him if he wants to destroy the crops in the fields so that his descendants will starve to death.
When the village chief heard the ancestor ask him this, he was so scared that he immediately knelt down and said that he had no such idea at all.
He also said that he really didn't know there would be a locust plague. After explaining it for a while, he ended up being scolded by his ancestors again.
In the dream, the village chief knelt down obediently and was scolded by the ancestor for a long time.
The old ancestor saw that he had a good attitude in admitting his mistakes, and he also knew that as the village chief, he would have no problem handling some trivial matters between neighbors, but he would not be able to handle major issues that concerned the life and death of the entire village.
Fortunately, there was a noble lady with a strange soul in the village. As long as Xinghua Village had the help of this noble lady, the locust plague would not be a small matter, but would allow the villagers to have enough food to eat.
Even though he was the ancestor of the family, he was not entirely sure what the lady would do, because although he had experienced a locust plague during his lifetime, no one had figured out a way to kill the locusts.
However, he knew that as long as Xinghua Village could establish a good relationship with the noble lady, it would be the beginning of Xinghua Village's rise.
He then risked his own death and ran into Xiao's dream, subtly reminding him of this matter. A noble person had arrived in Xinghua Village, and he hoped Xiao would not let him down.
After the ancestor passed away, a man was still immersed in a dream, kneeling on the ground, thinking about what the ancestor said to him.
"A distinguished person has come to Xinghua Village. Who is it?" The village chief thought silently.
