Traveling through the famine years with the system to raise cubs

Chapter 51 Why are you still looking for trouble? 2

After everyone heard Jiang Suihe's words, they began to whisper. Jiang Ling gave Mrs. Lu who was lying on the ground moaning fiercely, turned her head and said, "Village Chief, I would have no land after I reconciled with their family."

"If I don't find a small business to do, what will we mother and son eat and drink? What I need is the "spicy grass" from the back mountain. I really can't pick so much by myself, so I want to let the sisters-in-law Take the children to the back mountain to pick some, and I will buy them at the price of two copper coins per basket."

"Who knows that this old fellow suddenly came out just now, saying that his grandson was injured because of picking "spicy grass" and insisted on asking me for five hundred copper coins. Before I could even open my mouth, she tore up my daughter's book! "

As soon as the words fell, everyone exclaimed, and the whispering voices around became louder.

Jiang Ling glanced at the crowd around her and suddenly had an idea. She first bowed to the people around her and said calmly, "Sisters-in-law, thank you very much for the spicy herbs you sent today. There is no need to send the grass, if your child is also injured, I can't afford it."

When Jiang Ling said this, his attitude was very firm, and he even had an aura that people could not refuse.

The village women around all gave Mrs. Lu who was lying on the ground a hard look, almost scolding her why she likes to make trouble so much.

Zhao Erleng's daughter-in-law was the first to stand up, and she whispered softly: "Sister-in-law, what you said is offended. Our family Xiao Yu and Lightning are naughty, and it's normal to bump into each other. Don't worry, my children will not be ashamed. Even if I was injured on the mountain, I wouldn’t come to ask you for money..."

As soon as Zhao Erleng's daughter-in-law finished speaking, several other village women began to join in.

"Mother Yaojie, don't worry, my son's rough skin and thick flesh are not afraid of being bumped!"

"That's right, Mrs. Jiang, we are not rich young masters, it's normal for children to be naughty! You must not refuse this spicy grass!"

Jiang Ling knew very well that with a basket of mints a day, some families with more children could earn nearly ten copper coins a day, and nearly three hundred copper coins a month. Three hundred copper coins can buy a lot of things in the eyes of farmers. Village women do not want to lose such a good opportunity to make money.

But Jiang Ling still stood sullenly and remained silent.

"Mom! You! What are you doing here?"

When the atmosphere was a bit awkward, two figures, one big and one small, suddenly parted the crowd. Lu Youyi hurriedly walked to Mrs. Lu's side, carefully helped her up from the ground and asked.

Mrs. Lu immediately regained her spirits when she saw someone coming from her family. She covered her swollen cheeks and pointed at Jiang Ling, saying vaguely, "Little slut! Lost money! Youyi beat her to death today!"

"Mother! Can you stop making trouble! The injury on Chengyun's arm was not caused by picking "spicy grass" at all!" Seeing his mother's sloppy look, Lu Youyi also looked helpless.

"That's right, grandma, didn't I explain it to you before? I accidentally dropped it when I went down the mountain to fight with Da Zhuang! Uncle Madam is so good, she took my "spicy grass" and gave me a copper coin That!" Lu Chengyun took out the two copper coins that Jiang Ling gave her before from his pocket.

"Village chief, you heard it too. I have nothing to do with the child's injury. It's not easy for me to start a small business. I managed to earn some money to buy a book for the child, but this old...old guy Tell me what to do if you have ruined it like this!" Jiang Ling stood there and looked at the village head and said.

The village head was almost blown away by Mrs. Lu. He never expected that in less than a month, the mother and son of the Lu family would find themselves several times.

The village head glanced at Mrs. Lu whose face was almost as swollen as a steamed bun. Due to the family relationship, he sighed and said to Jiang Ling: "Mr. Let's... even it out?"

Jiang Ling was furious when she heard it. She knew that the village chief said this because of his surname and clan relationship, but this old man bullied her child so unscrupulously every time.

This matter must be discussed today. Thinking of this, Jiang Ling raised her eyebrows and looked at the village chief and said, "Village chief, what do you mean? Even? Don't you know why I beat her?"

"This..." The village chief didn't know what to say for a while.

Seeing this, Jiang Ling pinched her waist and continued: "She wronged me for no reason, extorted five hundred copper coins from me, and finally tore up my daughter's book. Before that, his son framed me because of the potato. After my son reconciled, I never went to his house to make a fuss, but his house was aggressive again and again."

"Village chief, do you want to sideline the fight? Or is it that one day I took my four children and hanged them in front of their house? This will be the end of it?"

Jiang Ling's words completely left the village chief at a loss as to what to say.

If it weren't for the special status of the village head, the village head would really want to open his mouth and scold Mrs. Lu severely.

"Village chief, I, the Jiang family, didn't ask you for credit for the potatoes and water sources, did I?" Jiang Ling continued to ask.

The village chief didn't know what to say, this was the first time he felt pressure in public, and what was even more helpless was that the pressure came from a dark, thin and divorced woman.

He rubbed his sore temples, glared at Mrs. Lu fiercely and said, "If you come to trouble Jiang again in the future, I will consider whether to check off your name on the genealogy!"

"Ah! Don't! Don't! Village chief, I... I don't dare!" The ancients were always in awe of genealogy. When the village chief said this, Mrs. Lu immediately turned pale with fright and waved her hands repeatedly.

"Mr. Jiang, how much is your book?" The village chief asked, looking at the fragment in Jiang Suhe's hand.

"You can buy it in the study in Changning Town. I just need you to pay me for an identical copy of the book copied by Master Xiucai!" Jiang Ling didn't directly quote, but just made it clear what he wanted.

After everyone heard the words "Scholar Master", they were even more blown away.

"Master Xiucai copied it? My God, I heard it's worth at least one or two hundred copper coins!"

"That's right! My nephew is studying in an academy in Pingxi County, and pens, inks, papers and inkstones are all expensive!"

"This...this Jiang family is probably trying to make her daughter a lady husband!"

Everyone's words and glances once again pushed the storm to a climax.

Although the village head had heard about Jiang Ling's daughter going to school, what he didn't expect was that Jiang Ling would be willing to spend so much money buying books for a girl.

"Old lady Lu, you tore up the book, what do you think about this matter?" The village chief sighed helplessly.

"I tore it... how I tore it! This stinking girl is my granddaughter, and it's only natural for me to beat her and scold her..."

"Mother...don't talk about it!" Lu Youyi interrupted by tugging on Mrs. Lu's sleeve and frowning.

"Jiang Shi, no... I'm sorry, this book, I'll go to Changning Town tomorrow to buy you an identical copy..." Lu Youyi said with a face of shame.

Jiang Ling's complexion did not ease in any way, she looked at Lu Chengyun at the side with a cold face and asked: "Chengyun, tell the truth, what happened to the injury on your arm?"
