Chapter 70
Now, there has been no rain for more than a month, and the temperature is much higher than in previous years, which naturally caused the water level of the mother river to drop due to the scorching sun.But not only do you not pursue your lucky laziness, but you want to blame your fault on a girl who is wholeheartedly working for the well-being of the villagers. Do you still have a sense of shame? "

Among the crowd who came, there were obviously some people who realized that they were making trouble for no reason, and they couldn't help but bow their heads a little ashamedly after what Fei Yunyi said.But there are also people who blindly accept death and refuse to let go, and this is the leading man.

I saw that he was not ashamed of his responsibility, and he still said fiercely with big lala eyes: "You brat, don't shield the witch here. If that witch is sincerely helping others, why do people in your village think that she is The so-called water pump was built with evil intentions. The purpose is to make a fortune for yourself, so I cursed the water level of the mother river to drop, but the water in the well you dug is very full? If you have a clear conscience, why don't you let us in Look at the well at the foot of your mountain!"

Miao Yinshu yelled that it was not good. It seemed that there was an inner ghost, so she passed the well water in the well at the foot of the mountain to the people outside the village. She was really going to be treated as a witch.

And the hired workers on his side couldn't help being in an uproar, and Dongzi shouted excitedly: "Who said it? What bastard did you hear it from? Tell him to come out!"

"That's right! Who said that? Tell him to come out. We have to ask him, what is wrong with him, Missy, to talk nonsense in front of outsiders!"

"Hmph! How can you believe the words of a guy who hides his head and eats inside and out? If he doesn't make a mistake, let him stand up at this time and confront us properly. I want to see how he feels about us. The eldest lady is a witch!" Zhong Qi searched through the visitors, but he didn't see anyone from this village or anyone who worked together in Miao's house.

"That's right! You call that guy out, let's confront each other!" The rest of the people immediately yelled after being told by Zhong Qi at one o'clock.

"Who is that, you..." The leading man turned around and wanted to find someone, but there was no one to guide them, so he couldn't help but spit, "That coward!"

"Just because he knows his words are false, he only plays tricks behind his back and dare not come out to confront him. Do you have to blindly believe what such a person says?" Fei Yunyi seized the opportunity and immediately countered, "Or Said, it is precisely because of your own guilty conscience that you grasped a little bit of hope and shifted the responsibility to others instead of pursuing your original mistake in judgment and making excuses for yourself?"

"Hmph! No matter what you say, but I believe that what the man said must be correct, otherwise, why don't you dare let us go in to witness whether the water in the well is full?" It can be perfunctory in this way, otherwise, it will not be pushed out to negotiate.

"It's not that you don't dare, but I'm afraid that after you go in and have a look, you will blame yourself even more for your mistake in judgment!" At this time, Miao Yinshu knew that she had to come forward, otherwise if the employees were tricked by him later It's not easy to solve it if you say something.

"Yin Shu!" Fei Yunyi saw her speak out, and immediately wanted to protect her nervously, but Miao Yinshu had already stood up from behind him.

"Who are you?" The leader cast a contemptuous glance at Miao Yinshu, who was no taller than Fei Yunyi's shoulders, and said, "Little girl, don't meddle in the affairs of adults, you'd better go home obediently!"

"That's right! Little sister, this is a matter for adults, little girl, don't make trouble!" Some people in the crowd on the other side also booed.

"Hahaha! I think it's because the people in Shilipo are useless, so they sent a little boy to come forward!" Some people simply belittled all the people in Shilipo.

I was so angry that Zhong Yu's father and the others glared at each other angrily, almost about to shoot.

Miao Yinshu was not angry, because she felt that people who spoke like this were actually covering up their own guilty conscience.

So, he waved his hand slightly to the person on his side, and smiled sweetly at the person on the other side: "I am the witch Miao Yinshu you are looking for!"

"What?" The other party's eyes fell to the ground in an instant, and he stared at Miao Yinshu in disbelief, "Little sister, don't fool people around! It's not fun to stand up for others!"

Ok!Miao Yinshu, who once again mourned her small body, was silent for a while, raised her head amidst their whispers, and confidently showed her identity again: "I didn't fool anyone, and I didn't lift the tank for others. The Miao Yinshu you are looking for! If you don’t believe me, just ask them!”

"Miss, please ignore them, leave these matters to us to deal with!" Zhong Yu's father was worried that Miao Yinshu would be hurt if the other person became unreasonable, so he immediately suggested this.

"Yes, Miss, don't worry, we won't let them go in and harm your things!" The others also expressed their opinions.

Seeing that the hired workers respected Miao Yinshu so much, and they kept calling her "Miss", the people over there finally believed that Miao Yinshu was the witch they were talking about.

Unexpectedly, Miao Yinshu was still a child, and they really felt a little guilty.However, thinking that the matter is related to the crop growth problem downstream and the key to their survival, after everyone looked at each other, the leader still said unreasonably: "Okay, even if you are Miao Yinshu, we can see that you are young. For your sake, I don’t hold you accountable. But since you were the one who came up with the idea of ​​digging the well, then you should take the initiative to talk to your village chief about removing the deep wells by the river and the ones at the foot of your house. Those wells are filled, and we're on our way home!"

"Yes! Bury it! Bury it! Little girl, you can't let the villagers in other villages suffer from drought for your own selfishness, and even threaten people's lives!"

"Yes! As long as you bury the well, we will forget the past!"

"Bury, bury..."

"Miss?" Zhong Yu's father looked at Miao Yinshu nervously, very afraid that a little girl would agree to such an unreasonable request under the threat of a group of big men.

Although, he was also very surprised that the water in the well under the mountain of Miao's house didn't seem to be affected by the drought at all, but he thought it was Miao Yinshu's choice of water outlet.That's why there is such a miracle. Moreover, the Chinese herbal medicines in the medicine field grow faster than the normal crops, all because the young lady chose a very good geomantic treasure land.

Miao Yinshu smiled at Zhong Yu's father, calming his nervousness, and said to the people there unhurriedly: "It's not impossible for us to bury the well to prove whether your guess is correct. It's just that , I can also be said to be a businessman. Of course, a businessman cannot do business at a loss. Not to mention that the wells in my house were dug by the master at a high price, even the wells along the river in our village are also Mr. Fei and the head of the village paid their own hard-earned money to buy it for the village, er, Fuze, so naturally we can't just let these capitals go to waste, can't we!"

"Then what do you want?" Hearing that Miao Yinshu decided to bury the well so readily, the people in that party were overjoyed at first, but after hearing about the matter related to silver, they couldn't help becoming nervous.

"When I dug these four wells, I spent about 100 taels of silver, plus the labor cost of landfill, at least a few tens of taels, and the total was only about 200 taels. As for the wells by the river, because they were dug deeper, a well was converted into about 30 taels of silver, which did not include the wages for the villagers. Of course, the wells dug by Master Yang in other places It’s not worth the price. It’s just that our side is full of rocks, and it takes a lot of work to dig, so the price offered by our village is much higher. If you don’t believe what I said, you can go ask yourself Master Yang and his disciples, they are not from our village, so they will not cover up for us and talk nonsense.

Of course, you can also ask the person who led you the way just now. After all, since he knows so much about my family, he must remember how much money I spent back then. "

Seeing them flinching at each other when they heard the expense of such a large sum of money, Miao Yinshu went on to say: "These days after the well was buried, my hired workers went down the mountain to fetch water for use. , I won’t tell you about the wages added to the hired workers, after all, these expenses are nothing to me.

However, I can give you about a month to witness whether the wells dug in our village are related to the drought and the drop in the water level of the mother river. Among them, although the manpower and material resources wasted by my family are not up to you, but the efforts of other villagers Opinions are not something that a little girl like me can control, and I have to trouble you to discuss another compensation plan with everyone!After all, everyone lives by the crops in the field.

However, if a month later, under the witness of time, the water level of the mother river will still gradually drop due to the drought caused by the long-term no rain, then the people in our village have the right to ask you to come to the door to pick things up people to make corresponding compensation.

If you agree to such a request, we can go to the county government and ask the county lord to be a witness to confirm whether it is because the wells in our village have affected the water level downstream of you! "

"Yes! Let's do it like this!" After hearing Miao Yinshu's words, the hired workers immediately became imposing.

"Oh! By the way, if you feel that the wells in other villages have affected you, we can ask the village chiefs to go to the county government to write a letter of guarantee for landfill!" Fei Yun looked at the little man beside him in admiration Son, appreciating her for not only showing no fear in the face of the ferocious adults, but also speaking logically, and added another sentence aside.

"This..." The person on the other side was immediately dumbfounded.

If it is really necessary to fill the well as a proof of the drop in the water level of the mother river, then the newly dug wells of their own village who are almost a little richer are bound to join the ranks of filling.Not to mention other people's homes, but the big well in the Li Chang's home would not be approved.

"Let's discuss it. It's getting dark and I'm hungry. I have to go home for dinner. If you have made up your mind, please ring the doorbell here. I will definitely come down and go to the county government office overnight with you to complete the formalities." !" Miao Yinshu said neither overbearing nor humble, and did not ask them to give an answer immediately, but gave them enough time to think, so that the result won't leave any sequelae.

Back home, Cui Gu and Zhong Yu felt relieved to see them come in safely, and hurriedly made dinner.Zhong Yu's father and the others were worried about those people down the mountain, fearing that their unreasonable behavior would be detrimental to the owner, so naturally they did not dare to go down the mountain without authorization until the matter was resolved.

Miao Yinshu understood their kindness, so she didn't let them go home, but kept them for dinner.

The atmosphere in the dinner room was very dignified, as if everyone had their own concerns, some were solemn, some sighed secretly, and some shook their heads for some reason.
