I Was Called a Poor Widow, But I Relied on My Supernatural Powers To Fight Back In Ancient Times

Chapter 473 Some people just have soft ears

Bai Yunxi pursed her lips. Thinking about the faces of the people in the village, it was not surprising that they had their thoughts on her head.

“Humph, it’s a good thing that the uncle refused them. If the uncle really let those people trick him into coming to our house to borrow food, I would be the first to disagree and I would definitely drive him out with a broom.”

　　"A group of people who are trying to push their limits. Just looking at them makes me want to kick them. I don't know if the lobbyist's mind was squeezed by the door."

Hearing Xiao Si’s indignant tone, Bai Yunxi couldn’t help laughing.

 “The words are rough and the reasoning is not rough, Baiyun Song is indeed seriously ill.”

That guy is a soft-spoken person, and she is not surprised if she is persuaded to do anything.

The reason why he could refuse was not because of the friendship between their cousins, but because he didn't want to bear the debt.

Furthermore, his purpose of doing things for the villagers was to gain a good reputation, but he did not want to fall into debt.

But no matter what, since those people had this idea, they must also be thinking about their family. She had to think about it carefully, how could she avoid it?

Seeing his mother frowning, Xiaosi waved his hand and quickly comforted her.

“Mom, I saw it with my own eyes this time. The uncle really refused without any hesitation.”

“Tch, what does it have to do with us that those people in the village are out of food? Why can they blame us for everything? It’s really shameless.”

Ms. Li curled her lips and said, "It means nothing. Those people are just jealous of their big yard."

“Not to mention, it’s rare that the grand uncle actually kept the bottom line this time.”

“I’m afraid if those people don’t give up and beg shamelessly, the uncle may not change his mind.”

Bai Jingjing put down the embroidery work in his hands and spoke worriedly.

Looking at the worried expressions of the children, Bai Yunxi sat back in his chair, squinting his eyes and thinking for a moment.

The children were rightly worried. She had always disliked Bai Yunsong. Even if she refused now, it was hard to say whether she would cause other troubles in the future.

 Also, if a person’s ears are so soft that he can’t bear a few soft words from others, then there is no bottom line.

“Is mother worried about the uncle?” Xiao Si looked at her mother’s silence and couldn’t help but ask.

Baiyunxi nodded,

“My mother knows very well who your uncle is. I really don’t believe he can keep the bottom line. Therefore, we have to take precautions in advance, at least to be prepared.”

Hearing this, Du Shi sighed in agreement.

“Mother is right, the people in the village are worried about us because they are jealous. Whenever we lend the food out, no one will be willing to return it. If there is a stalemate over asking for food, we will end up being known as a bully.”

“Since borrowing or not will offend others, why should we open this hole?”

Listening to Du's analysis, Baiyunxi looked at her in surprise and praised her appreciatively,

"It's good that you can think of this. It's easier to borrow money than to get money. Once you start, you can't control it later, and it's easy to offend people. We definitely can't do this kind of thankless thing."

Bai Yunxi said, looking at all the members of the family, and directly gave instructions,

"Listen carefully, from now on, our family's food is not allowed to be borrowed from outside. If anyone pleads, just say that we owe a lot of foreign debt to build a house. All the food harvested in the autumn has been used to pay off the debt, and there is no extra food. Can be borrowed."

Everyone’s eyes lit up as they listened.

"This is indeed a good idea. Our big yard is the best excuse."
