Chapter 99 Promise



Sun Xiu thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, uncle, I trust you all."

Captain Sun also smiled, "Xiu'er, don't worry, the tribe will not let you down."

"Um."

Seeing that the matter had been discussed, everyone chatted for a few more minutes.

Before leaving, Captain Sun said something meaningful to Sun Xiu, "Xiu'er, if anyone causes you trouble, come and tell me, and I will help you solve it."

After saying that, he left.

Leaving everyone in the room looking at each other in bewilderment.

Then Sun Xiu changed the subject, "Mom, why were you so happy when Uncle came just now?"

Before Old Lady Sun could say anything, Uncle Sun laughed and explained, "After we distributed the food last night, the news spread throughout the brigade today. Now everyone is praising our Sun family's unity, and those people with other surnames are almost envious to death."

Second Uncle Sun also echoed, "You just came too late. If it were daytime, you would see that everyone in our Sun family would hold their heads higher."

Sun Xiu and others understood as soon as they heard it.

People from other families envy the Sun family for having people donate food under such difficult conditions, which can increase their chances of survival.

After all, those who received the food were all poor families in the Sun family.

When the Sun family heard these words, regardless of whether they received food or not, they felt a strong sense of pride and naturally walked with their heads held higher.

Li Jiakang asked curiously, "What about you guys?"

Uncle Sun and the other man coughed twice embarrassedly and said nothing.

Old Mrs. Sun beside her also smiled and said, "From last night to today, they have been praised more than ever. Their heads are almost lifted to the sky."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the room laughed.

At this time, Li Ping also asked, "Uncle, after this matter got out, no one asked to borrow grain from you?"

You know, everyone knows how much grain was donated, so everyone can estimate how much surplus grain the Sun family has.

Uncle Sun grinned, "No one. Last night, several uncles spread the word that anyone who dares to borrow grain from us will be going against the entire Sun family, and the consequences will be unpredictable."

Li Xu et al: ...

After everyone talked for a while, Sun Xiu and others said goodbye and left.

On the way back, Li Xu asked in confusion, "Mom, didn't we agree to keep the grain donation a secret? Why did you agree to it again?"

He wanted to ensure his family's safety, so he thought the fewer people who knew about this, the better.

Li Ping, who was riding his bike, suddenly laughed, "You are still young."

Li Jiakang and Sun Xiu also said, "Your brother is right, you are still too young."

Li Xu was confused. "What does this have to do with my youth?"

Sun Xiu explained, "The Sun family's family rules and regulations are quite strict and haven't been used in many years. Regardless of whether the person being punished can withstand it, even if they do, they will be removed from the family tree. This is the most severe punishment."

"Ah, there are still people who dare to use private..."

Having said that, Li Xu suddenly reacted.

Now is not the time to go to the police if you have trouble in the future. Even if you really can't resist the family law and die, then you die...

No one would report the Sun family for this matter.

To put it bluntly, there are so many members of the Sun family in the local area. If you go and report it, even if Captain Sun is shot, he will be executed.

So can your family continue to stay here in the future?

Moreover, most of the people nowadays are elderly people who come from the old times, and they feel that such things are even more common.

Even if you haven't seen it, you must have heard of it.

They believe that it is right to be punished according to family rules if they violate clan rules.

As for being removed from the family tree, it is even more serious in the eyes of family members.

Because they were not allowed to be buried in their clan’s ancestral tombs after their death, they became strangers to their relatives and became wandering ghosts.

Although some things cannot be said directly, this is indeed the general thought among everyone at this time.

Not to mention now, even in the future, most people don’t want to be cremated after they die.

Some ideas are already deeply rooted and cannot be changed overnight.

Hearing that Li Xu hadn't finished speaking, Li Ping asked, "Do you understand now?"

Li Xu nodded continuously, "I understand, I understand."

Li Jiakang also said, "I understand. It's good that the food donation this time was not in vain."

Li Xu understood what he meant.

Captain Sun's words before leaving were almost like saying that if anyone gave you trouble, he would kill them...

At that time, everyone in the room remained silent because they understood what was said.

Li Xu also felt that Captain Sun was a decent and capable person.

Although he is now the captain of Sunjiatan, he was the head of the Sun family in the past.

What he said is now equivalent to the promise made by the entire Sun family.

So don't be fooled by the fact that he speaks very amiably at night.

But if you say he has a kind character.

Don’t say that Li Xu didn’t believe it.

Even the dogs don't believe it.

Li Xu also believed that if someone really caused trouble, Captain Sun might not be able to solve the trouble, but he would definitely solve the troublemaker.

Li Xu sighed, "This can be regarded as a replacement for our family's amulet."

Sun Xiu also said, "I never thought my uncle would make such a big promise. I hope the day never comes when it's needed."

Li Ping laughed out loud, "Don't worry, Mom. There won't be so many blind people coming to cause trouble for our family. We just need to live a good life."

Everyone laughed when they heard this, and there was laughter and joy all the way.

But no one expected that someone would cause trouble the next day...

One day, when Li Jiakang was working, he was suddenly called to the office by the director.

After a while, Li Ping and Sun Xiu also came in.

There were also two security personnel standing in the room.

The three of them were confused. Li Jiakang hesitated and asked, "Director, what do you want to talk to us about?"

After saying that, he glanced at the people in the security department.

The director also smiled and said, "Old Li, I heard that your family bought two bicycles and a watch these days, right?"

The three of them looked at each other and instantly felt confident.

Li Jiakang nodded. "I bought it. What's the matter?"

"Then I'll be frank. Someone reported your products to the factory, saying they came from a different source. Then they asked me to investigate."

Li Jiakang suddenly laughed, "Director, can I ask who the whistleblower is?"

The director asked cautiously, "What's the matter? Why are you asking this?"

"I'm just asking, I want to know who hates us so much."

At this time, Li Ping said, "Director, if we can prove that the source of the items is correct, does that mean that the whistleblower is slandering his colleagues? Shouldn't the factory punish him as well?"

Sun Xiu and the other two immediately agreed, "Yes, he must be punished."
