Poor family little lucky wife

Chapter 1560 Who is in charge?

The village is leading the way ahead, and the old tree is in the center of their village.

It was a flat open space with an old tree in the corner.

It's really an old tree, but it's not young. Its trunk is so thick that it takes three or four people to surround it.

At this time, the villagers had already gathered here.

The old man still had a small wooden stool brought from home, while the young man just found a place to sit. As for the children, they ran all over the field.

It wasn't until this time that Lu Yunxi felt that there was some popularity in the village.

After careful observation, Lu Yunxi found that no matter how rough the children were, they would not go to the old people at the front.

It seems that those old people are the clan elders in the village.

"Muramasa, what are you doing calling the big guy over at noon?" an old man at the front asked.

The patches on his clothes are the fewest here, and the wrinkles on his face are like the old bark.

It can be seen that even the elders in the village have a difficult life.

"Someone is here at the yamen, and I want to talk to the big guys about moving out." The village official said, leading Li Tianyou and Lu Yunxi to the front.

Village Zheng's son had already set up a stool there for Li Tianyou, Lu Yunxi and the others to sit on.

"My lords." The clan elder said with a heavy sigh, "It's not that we don't listen to the court, we really can't bear to leave here."

"Our ancestors have lived here for generations, if we were to leave...our roots would be broken."

Saying that, the clan elder wiped the corners of his eyes with his worn sleeve.

Seeing the clan elder like this, the villager frowned in embarrassment.

Of course, Lu Yunxi took all their reactions into consideration, and said with a smile: "Old man, there is no need to rush this matter."

"It's already noon, big guy, let's have some food first."

With that said, Lu Yunxi looked at the person they brought.

Those people were really nimble, and immediately set up a cauldron beside them.

They are all good at surviving in the wild. It is very easy for them to build a simple stove and cook.

The white white rice was taken out, as well as sliced ​​meat and vegetables, and they were boiled in a large pot.

The fragrant smell was so tangy that the villagers couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

Porridge!

Porridge!
How long has it been since they had white rice?
Those children who were playing around just now all stopped at this moment, with their mouths open, and the saliva flowed out.

They sucked their noses desperately, the strong rice fragrance made them unable to resist approaching their parents and whispering: "I want to eat..."

The parents of those children swallowed their saliva and said, "Don't make trouble."

These children are really ignorant.

These things, let alone children want to eat, they also want to eat.

Eat one meal a day, and if there is anything good, try to give it to the elderly and children. They may not be able to eat oil and water once a year.

As the rice porridge was cooked, the attention of the clan elders was all on the meat porridge.

Even if they are clan elders, the chances of eating such fine grains are not very high.

When the meat porridge was finally ready, Lu Yunxi smiled and said to Muramasa: "Cunzheng, let the big guys eat first."

"Okay, okay." Muramasa nodded excitedly, "Hurry up and go home to get the bowls, and then line up to serve the rice."

The young people in the village rushed home, wanting to eat the meat porridge quickly.

After a while, there was a queue in front of those cauldrons.

Soon, each of them took a large bowl, and they all returned to their seats, sucking and eating.

Although it is porridge, it is quite thick.

This is completely different from the porridge they cook at home on weekdays.

The porridge cooked at home is so thin that it can directly see the bottom of the pot.

Now, if they take a bite of the porridge in their bowls, it's a mouthful of white rice and meat.

The people in the village ate and ate, and many of them shed tears.

They have never eaten such a good meat porridge.

The adults wiped their tears while eating, and the children even ate without raising their heads.

For a while, there was only the sound of everyone burying their heads in their meals.

Even Muramasa ate without raising his head.

After a while, someone finished eating and looked up.

He wanted to fill another bowl, but he was embarrassed.

It was given away for free, and he felt that a bowl was already good.

When he was hesitating, those porridge cookers saw him and greeted him with a smile: "After eating, come serve again."

When the villagers heard it, several of them all looked up.

Can I have another bowl?
"Adults can eat three bowls, and children can eat two bowls." The porridge cook said with a smile, "You usually eat too little, too much, your stomach can't stand it, and you're easy to get sick."

The meaning they express is very clear. It is not that they are not allowed to eat, but that they are worried that they will eat too much at once and their bodies will not be able to bear it.

The villagers were relieved when they heard this, and hurriedly ate their share.

When everyone in the village had finished eating, they all touched their bulging bellies with satisfied smiles on their faces.

The whole village hasn't been this happy for a long time.

"After you move out, you can gradually live a life like this, eating white rice and meat from time to time." Lu Yunxi said in a timely manner.

When the elders heard this, their expressions became rather ugly.

"There are a lot of delicious food outside, but our ancestors are here."

"We can't go!"

All the clan elders disagreed.

As soon as the clan elder opened his mouth, all the villagers fell silent.

The smile that had just been revealed just now slowly faded away.

"Do you want to leave?" Lu Yunxi ignored the elders, but looked at the young people in the village.

"We have the final say on matters in the village." The clan elder scolded coldly, "Anyone who leaves will betray their ancestors!"

"It's the sinner of the whole clan!"

When the clan elder said this, the faces of the villagers changed drastically, and they all became nervous.

Nobody wants to be a sinner.

They will never betray their ancestors.

"You guys have the final say?" Lu Yunxi smiled and looked at the clan elder who was speaking, "I thought that in Damo, the village official had the final say on the affairs of this village."

"The village official has been certified by the imperial court. He is the person who manages the affairs of the village."

Lu Yunxi glanced at those clan elders with a smile that was not a smile, and asked, "Dare you, are you more powerful than the village chief?"

"I really saw it today."

"You didn't betray your ancestors, but you opposed the imperial court."

Lu Yunxi's words shocked those clan elders almost to their feet.

They are crazy and dare not oppose the imperial court!
"Don't talk nonsense, we don't!" Several clan elders hastily denied.

"Really?" Lu Yunxi asked with a smile, "Then who is in charge of the affairs in this village? Can you tell me clearly?"
