The village chief snorted, "You didn't do anything wrong, but your relatives did!"
Otherwise, you'd think we invited him over for tea and a casual chat!
When Cao Laoda saw that the village chief's face had darkened even more, he felt even more uncertain and panicked. Could it be that someone in his family had done something bad?
Otherwise, he really couldn't figure out why the village chief was looking at him with such a sour face, making his scalp tingle and leaving him too scared to move!
Suddenly, I felt like I couldn't straighten my back no matter what I did, as if he had really done something wrong, but he clearly hadn't done anything wrong!
If he finds out which little brat did something wrong and sent him here for a scolding, he'll definitely make him pay when he gets back!
Didn't you know the village rules were posted and frequently read aloud?
They need to be able to recite it from memory. If they've already recited it, and still dare to commit the crime so blatantly, they're asking for death. Don't drag them into this!
He's so angry!
He wasn't very successful in his life, but he also didn't do anything shameful!
He's lived most of his life, and if he's dragged out and paraded through the streets in the end, how can he save face?
Is it not even possible to live a simple and peaceful life without seeking wealth and fame?
Seeing that Cao Laoda also looked indignant, the village chief knew that he must have thought about a lot of things. He felt that it was enough, so he stopped beating around the bush and asked directly, "I heard that the Liang family from the outskirts of the village are distant relatives of yours?"
Cao Laoda was still cursing his family's brats in his heart when he suddenly heard the village chief speak. He was stunned for a moment, then nodded after realizing what was happening, "Yes, that's right."
Hearing the village chief ask this question, Cao Laoda started to wonder again. Could it be that the family had done something wrong, or was the village simply unable to tolerate outsiders?
The village chief could tell at a glance that this Boss Cao had a lot on his mind. He probably thought of countless versions of what he was going to do with just one question!
But it's not good to say anything to them. Do they think they're wrong?
Pretending not to notice, I continued, "What are their plans? How long do they intend to stay in our Changna village?"
Cao Laoda couldn't answer at all because he hadn't asked in detail. When they first came, they said it was just a temporary stay, and they would make further plans once they recovered!
Seeing how destitute they were, he couldn't bring himself to ask too many questions, making it seem like he was trying to kick them out!
He didn't ask any further questions after that, and just went to check on them from time to time. His own family barely had enough to eat and drink and couldn't afford to help them, but he still secretly gave them a little bit of rice. Later, when he couldn't afford to give them any more, he stopped going to check on them.
At first, some villagers gave them some things and told them where to find food. He figured that people who had found their way here couldn't be stupid and wouldn't starve to death, so he ignored them.
There's no other way. His family is busy. He's working hard to save money for his youngest son's wedding. His son is getting on in years, and if he doesn't take advantage of the good opportunity to find a wife now, when will he? If he waits any longer, he might miss the best chance!
They weren't even close relatives to begin with; they were separated by hundreds of miles. If they hadn't run away because they couldn't survive and came to him, he wouldn't have bothered with these things!
Once they arrive and have a place to stay, how they survive is up to them; he can't really help them much.
He genuinely had no idea what happened next!
Can anyone understand this old father who works so hard to save money?
The village chief listened to Cao Laoda's rambling and learned some things.
That's a relative of Boss Cao. Initially, I wanted to go to Boss Cao first. It wouldn't be right not to ask him.
The village chief sighed and asked the crucial question, "Do you know what good deeds they've done recently?"
Cao Laoda wasn't stupid. He didn't think that what the village chief said about good things was really good things; it was sarcasm!
Based on the village chief's dark and sour face from before, he dared to say that it must be something bad!
He knew it! Someone must have done something bad and dragged him down with them!
Just as I expected!
They're not the puppies from my own family, they're from someone else's family!
It's a pity that he brought them in, so he also bears some responsibility. The village chief came to him, but he can't blame the village chief.
Blame the Liang family for dragging them down!
The village chief is the head of the village, and he has a lot of responsibility. If something happens in the village, he, as the village chief, cannot escape the consequences!
Cao was furious when the village chief asked a seemingly unrelated question, "Can you recite the village rules?"
ah?!
What does this have to do with memorizing village rules?
"I can recite it!" Although I didn't know why they were asking, I answered truthfully.
The village chief ignored Cao Laoda's bewildered look and said, "It's good that you can recite it. Let me tell you what good deeds your relatives have done first, and then we'll talk about how to deal with it."
The village chief recounted the incident, growing angrier as he spoke, and nearly lost control and slammed his fist on the table.
The more Cao Laoda listened, the more terrified he became. My goodness!
Whose relative is this?
He doesn't want to acknowledge anyone who isn't a relative of his!
This is so incredibly embarrassing!
How come they haven't done a single good deed, but have done so many bad ones!
Do you really think nobody else knows?
The people of Changna Village are not as foolish as they used to be. They have interacted more with outsiders and are much smarter. If someone wants to investigate something, it is a very simple matter!
Do you really think that letting those two daughters come out and cry a little will solve the problem?
This trick is outdated!
There have been people like that in the village before; those are all things that others have already done. The villagers are all smart enough that no one will fall for that trick anymore!
The villagers don't hold grudges, but if others do, you're finished in no time!
Those small matters can be let go, but the matter concerning Chen Ahua's family is no small matter!
well!
He was trembling with fear as he listened. If he disliked everyone in the village, wouldn't he retaliate against them all?
There are always conflicts between people. What was originally a minor issue can be easily escalated into a major conflict by instigation and provocation. When such a conflict snowballs, it's impossible for people not to get hurt!
He, who kindly allowed them to stay, might also be disliked by them because he didn't help them much. They might soon resent him because they have no food or water!
well!
We shouldn't have taken these people in!
There's always a reason why someone is pitiful!
That's absolutely right!
The village chief just asked him if he had recited the village rules. Does that mean he intends to deal with him according to the village rules?
However, they are from out of town, and given their personalities, they certainly won't accept the punishment from their own village!
The village chief knew they wouldn't accept it, so he didn't say much to Cao Lao, only asking, "Do you want to help them, or protect them?"
Boss Cao paused for a moment, then shook his head. "Those who do bad things must bear the consequences and accept the punishment! That's what they deserve. Punish them however they should, and I won't have any objections!"
Even brothers have to be punished for their mistakes, otherwise they won't know how to admit their mistakes and repent!
Besides, they're relatives who are practically unrelated!
He's not stupid enough to challenge the village chief's authority!
He gained nothing from it, and the family wouldn't be grateful to him either!
"It's good that you think that way!"
