Becoming the Villain's Discarded Wife

Chapter 57 Food Distribution

In the following days, Nanzhi gradually unlocked various chestnut noodle recipes, and most families in Lihua Village had almost repaired their houses.

Early in the morning, I heard Shen Dashan and two brothers, Shen Qingchuan and Shen Qinghe, go around beating gongs and calling everyone to gather at the entrance of the village.

Nanzhi yawned and wiped his face with the sleepy dog, rinsed his mouth and then followed Aunt Liu and his family to Bashang.

"Girl, the chestnut noodle lady has calculated it. One pound of chestnuts can produce six or seven two noodles!"

Aunt Liu looked at Nan Zhi like a chicken pecking at rice and said with a smile.

"So many?" Nanzhi cheered up upon hearing this.

A pound of chestnuts with the shells removed is only 9 taels. Some chestnuts with thicker shells can only have 8 taels of chestnut kernels per pound. Aunt Liu took a total of 20 kilograms of chestnuts and ground them, and she could get 67 taels of flour. It’s almost time to catch up with the wheat!

Aunt Liu looked at the people around her and whispered to Nanzhi: "You will tell Li Zheng about this later, do you understand?"

"Ah?" Nanzhi's head was full of questions. Why did he have to say it himself?

Logically speaking, my original method of grinding noodles was not effective. The method was figured out by Aunt Liu's family. Why should I have to say such a thing about asking for credit?

"Silly girl, just say what Auntie asks you to say, can Auntie still lie to you?" Aunt Liu looked at Nanzhi with a bit of anger in her eyes.

This girl Lin was a good child, but she had a bad life and became a widow at a young age. How could it be easy for an orphan and a widowed mother to live in this age?

"But……"

Before Nanzhi finished speaking, Aunt Liu had already blended into the crowd to say hello to her sisters.

"Sister Nanzhi, just listen to my mother-in-law." Shen Yuntian persuaded when seeing Nanzhi's hesitant look.

"Okay." Nanzhi nodded subconsciously, and when he realized it, Shen Yuntian had already walked to the front.

"Mom, let's go, Brother Doudou has gone to the front!" Gou'er tugged at Nanzhi's clothes and pointed at the crowd.

"let's go."

One large and one small followed the flow of people towards the Bazi.

"Sister Nanzhi! Sister Nanzhi! This way, this way!"

As soon as Nanzhi stood up with the dog, she heard Shen Miaomiao calling him. He looked up and saw the little girl standing in the crowd, smiling and waving to her.

It took Jin Nanzhi a long time to squeeze in, and asked breathlessly: "Why did you come so early?"

"My home is closer." Shen Miaomiao said without forgetting to wipe her sweat.

"Then do you know why Uncle Lizheng called us here?" Nanzhi looked at the crowd behind him, and then at the few people and a pile of bags under the tree. Some monks who were two feet tall were confused.

"My mother said we wanted to share the food." Shen Miaomiao whispered into Nanzhi's ear.

Nanzhi blinked and shared the food?

Before she could ask again, Shen Dashan had already spoken.

"Since everyone is here today, let's get started."

After speaking, Shen Dashan raised his hand, and the four clan elders sat aside.

Shen Dashan strode towards the table placed aside.

"We have recorded the money and food donated by our Lihua Village before. It just so happens that the houses and yards of each family have almost been repaired. Let's share the food now."

"There are fifteen households in total affected by the disaster. The food we dug out totals 700 jins of old rice, 261 jins of white flour, 2,460 jins of black flour, and 1,030 jins of sweet potatoes. Eight hundred and twenty-nine pounds of potatoes.”

Shen Dashan's words were like cold water mixed with hot oil, and the crowd immediately exploded.

"So much food!"

"It's really unexpected..."

"We should all be able to share it, right?"

"What about money? It can't just be food, right?"

Shen Dazhu's eyes turned cold and he immediately stared at Zhao Si who was speaking.

Zhao Si was mixed in the crowd. When he saw Shen Dashan looking at him, he felt a chill in his back and closed his mouth knowingly.

"Quiet!"

Shen Qingchuan knocked on the gong, and everyone around him suddenly became quiet. They all looked at Shen Dashan, waiting for his next words.

"There are thirty-three households that have donated money and food before."

After Shen Dashan finished speaking, he looked around at the people in the front row.

"The second Shen family donated 300 Wen, the third Shen family donated 200 Wen, the fourth Hu family donated 200 Wen, and the Shen Dazhu family donated 500 Wen..."

As Shen Dashan read out his name, there was some chatter in the crowd.

Everyone who had donated something smiled, while those who had not donated just complained.

"Even Mrs. Lin donated thirty kilograms of grain!"

Hearing his name being called, Nanzhi immediately stood up straight. Fortunately, Shen Dashan continued speaking, and only a few people looked in Nanzhi's direction.

"The Arita Chengfu family, the Li Erniu family, the Wu Shoucai family, the Shen Dazhu family, the old man Li family..."

"The ones who gave birth include Wang Cai's family, Liu San's family..."

Some people whose families had no money were relieved when they heard that Li Zheng had arrived.

Shen Dashan bent down and handed another booklet to the clan elder.

The rich man cleared his throat before continuing to read: "Shen Dazhu's family has thirty-two kilograms of old rice, sixteen kilograms of white flour, one hundred kilograms of black flour, thirty kilograms of sweet potatoes, and twenty kilograms of potatoes."

After saying that, the two brothers Shen Qingchuan and Shen Qinghe quickly brought over the prepackaged grain and weighed it.

Aunt Liu asked her three sons to go up and get things.

In this way, each household shared the food, and it took half an hour to arrive at Nanzhi.

"Mr. Lin, you will be given twenty catties of old rice, ten catties of white flour, sixty catties of black flour, and ten catties each of sweet potatoes and potatoes..."

Hearing the clan elder read his name, Nanzhi let go of the dog's hand and quickly went up to get the food.

However, she couldn't carry the one hundred and ten kilograms of grain by herself, but Shen Yuntian who was standing aside stepped forward to help her take a handful.

After Nanzhi had finished receiving the things, the clan elder also closed the booklet in his hand.

Some people looked at the bags piled on the ground with their own thoughts. When they were quiet, a voice suddenly asked: "Where is the remaining food!"

With someone taking the lead, some people whose families had not been allocated food also joined in.

"Zhao Si, what are you in a hurry for?" Shen Dashan frowned as he looked at Zhao Si, who was still restless.

"I, am I not thinking about everyone?"

When Zhao Si saw that he had been caught again, he simply stopped hiding in the crowd. He walked up to the people and asked loudly: "With so much food, why do they have it and we don't? Is it possible that we are not Pear Blossom Village?" Someone?"

Shen Dashan also stood up, walked to Zhao Si, looked at it before snorting and asked: "Zhao Si, are you feeling guilty when you say this? Did you use your money or your strength?"

"Why do they have everything, and why do we have nothing? I'm afraid you are not a partialist here! You gave your family two hundred kilograms of grain!"

Zhao Si was usually a rough-and-tumble man, but he also had a good reputation. Now that he was slapped in the face by Shen Dashan in front of so many people, he simply broke the pot.

"Zhao Si, please don't slander me! My family gritted their teeth and took out a couple of silver! It's not like you, who wanted to eat the whole family from the beginning! If you can't eat the whole family, you won't even have the strength to give it up! I'm really not afraid of Wang Mazi and the others at night Come to find you!" Aunt Qin stood aside and became angry when she heard Zhao Si's words. This Zhao Si was a fool to begin with, and now he is still throwing dirty water on her own house.

"What do I have to be afraid of! I won't steal food from my own house secretly!" Zhao Si said loudly, causing everyone around him to fall silent.

"When my family gives out money, several clan elders are watching! Do you still think that the clan elders in the village can be bribed by our family?" Mrs. Zhou looked at her mother-in-law who was furious. Yes, he said quickly.
