Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 11704

"We are grateful for everyone's coming here," said the village elder.

"Take all your stuff back with you. Every household is having a hard time. If you are implicated by my family in the future... I'm afraid your life will be even harder."

Everyone was struck by lightning when they heard the village elder's words.

What is the village elder hinting at?
Is it implying that because we have offended the old Yang family, all of us clan members will be implicated? In the future, we will be bullied in the village?

"Uncle, we are relatives and family. No matter what happens, we must stick together."

"Yes, we must unite and keep each other warm!"

The village elder glanced at his two cousins ​​who were talking, and a hint of relief and emotion appeared in his cloudy eyes.

"Good kids, all good kids."

"If you had said that in the past, I would have been so happy that I would have asked Dasheng's wife to prepare some snacks for us to drink together."

"But at this special time, although you are so kind to come to my house to visit me, I dare not keep you sitting any longer."

"Just say a few words, then leave. Leave quietly. Don't let anyone see you. If you do, I'm afraid you'll be implicated. Sigh..."

After the village elder finished speaking, he let out another long sigh of helplessness.

When everyone in the main room heard this, they felt distressed, angry, aggrieved, and helpless!
Several young men who had not yet married, led by Sansheng, were so angry that they clenched their fists. "If it doesn't work, let's fight with the Yang family. Our family has a lot of people in Changping Village, so we can win!"

"Yes, even if our family has no governors or generals, we have many brothers, and we will bite the old Yang family even if we die."

"Isn't Old Yang the one who cares about face the most? And the village head Yang Huazhong, who is usually such a kind person, why is he being pinched by Yang Ruoqing and Yang Yongqing this time?"

Everyone was talking at once, and in the end, they all decided to fight the Yang family to the death.

One of the older ones couldn't stand it any longer and slammed the table, "Why are you fighting for your life? Even if she's not a high-ranking official or a general, you can't beat her just because she's Yang Ruoqing!"

"Why can't we defeat them? We have so many brothers!"

"As we get older, the Yang family doesn't have many brothers anymore?"

“Not as many as ours!”

Someone replied stubbornly, but the voice was obviously softer than before.

"Who among you can catch the long whip in Yang Ruoqing's hand?"

"Her long whip is made of black gold. It can tear off two taels of flesh when it hits you!"

Well, the previous sound has been weakened by more than half.

After a brief silence in the main room, someone suggested: "I have an idea."

"explain."

"We can't fight the old Yang family head-on, nor can we beat the tigress Yang Ruoqing, but we can find Yang Ruoqing's weak spot."

"As long as we subdue her, we can control the old Yang family. To put it bluntly, the old Yang family is so powerful, isn't it because of Yang Ruoqing!"

"What's the weakness?"

"She has two young children!"

Before the man could finish his words, he was slapped on the head.

"Are you crazy? What kind of bad idea did you come up with? Do you want to die?"

"That's right. Even if we are not convinced, we can't do such a despicable thing."

"How can you be called a hero if you bully a kid? Even if Yang Yongqing came to our house, he would only beat Junyu's father twice, and he didn't even touch Junyu."

"That's right, let's keep things separate. Adult matters should be resolved by beating people up, and don't involve children."

"Every family has children. If you touch someone else's child, they will touch yours in the future..." The person who said this paused here because he found out that the person who made the suggestion was Sansheng. And Sansheng hadn't even married yet, let alone children.

Sansheng sat there, accepting condemnation from all sides, his face flushed and full of dissatisfaction.

When the village elder heard Sansheng's proposal, his eyebrows jumped sharply.

However, he did not reject San Sheng's proposal without thinking, and even secretly thought about it in his mind...

But at this moment, seeing the condemnation of Sansheng coming from all sides, the village elder could only stare at Sansheng and said unhappily: "What nonsense are you talking about, young man? Don't say angry words, it will damage your virtue!"

Sansheng pouted in dissatisfaction. Well, in the end he became the target of public criticism.

Although the village elder's family's show of weakness won them sympathy and support from some people, most of them just comforted them with words, and most of them just sent them some supplements such as eggs and brown sugar.

There was no actual action to reverse the situation.

However, on the next day, the villagers suddenly found that a lot of wooden boards and racks had been moved under the old maple tree at the entrance of the village and they began to build a platform.

"What are you doing? Building a stage?"

"It's not the first month of the year. It's the hottest time of the year. We're all so busy. Who has time to watch a play?"

"Even if you have time to watch a play, the troupe can't sing. It's too hot and your makeup will be washed away by sweat in a short time!"

The villagers gathered around the wooden platform, talking to each other. Some curious villagers went to ask the unfamiliar craftsmen who were building the platform, but they found out nothing. These craftsmen were so tight-lipped that they couldn't get anything out of them.

Although nothing could be said from the craftsmen, everyone found out that the two other village elders were in charge of these craftsmen.

The two village elders revealed to the villagers, "What we are going to do will be kept secret for now, but this is something that the Yang family started, so it will definitely benefit the whole village!"

By the next day, the platform had been set up and the craftsmen brought over six large pots with a large stove underneath.

"What is this going to do?"

"Alms?"

At this time, Yang Huazhong came out.

In one hand he held a small gong, and in the other a small mallet with a red silk tied to it.

Especially festive.

"Fellow villagers, I have good news for you."

"Our eldest nephew gave birth to a great-niece."

"The Luo family has a great-grandson."

"This is a happy event for our Yang family and Luo family. The Luo family will take the lead, and our Yang family will follow suit. We will set up porridge and rice at the entrance of the village for a month."

"Three meals a day, villagers who are too lazy to cook can come here to eat. They are very welcome."

"Those who came, ate our porridge and rice, so that our children can share in your joy. Thank you very much!"

Originally, having a child is something that every family has, and no one would cheer or bless other families.

However, if there are benefits to be gained, everyone is willing to give verbal blessings.

Three meals a day!

Half of the families in the village only have two meals a day even during the busy farming season, and the dry rice and vegetable rice are reserved for the laborers who do the heavy work in the family.

The elderly, children, and women all eat thin foods.

Moreover, at this time of year, although the lean period has just passed, the first crop of rice and the season's wheat have all been stored in the warehouse.

But, isn’t it a godsend to be able to save a meal?
