After the locust disaster, my fairy reincarnation identity was exposed

At this time, Sister-in-law Qiu felt that her bowl was too big and she should get a smaller bowl. It was such a waste of food to eat so much by herself.

Others saw Sister-in-law Qiu staring at the bowl. After a long time, someone reacted and said: "I don't work all day long. I think I should eat two meals a day, and only eat a small bowl of rice for each meal."

This statement was echoed by the others. You looked at me and I looked at you. Their expressions were not good-looking, and they finally went home in unison.

They should share their guesses with their families, then go to Li Zheng to get confirmation, and then discuss what preparations to make next.

This man can't stand up to God.

At this time, Mr. Xiang was in the ancestral hall with the clan elders.

Oil lamps were lit in the ancestral hall, and the large light shone on the faces of more than a dozen people, making them appear dark and mysterious.

There are three incense sticks stuck in the tripod cauldron on the altar table. Judging from the length, they have just been lit, and the smoke is rising and wrapping around the portraits of the ancestors above.

On both sides of the ancestor's portrait is a couplet.

The first couplet: Zu Deliu Fang Si Wooden

The second couplet: Zong Gonghao thinks about the source of water

Horizontal batch: Xiang's Ancestral Hall

At the top of the horizontal batch, in the center, is the title of "Heaven and Earth, Lord, Relative, Teacher".

Mr. Xiang is already sixty-one years old, and his sight is no longer that good, but he can clearly see every word in the ancestral hall. Even with his eyes closed, he knows which word is in which position.

Describing the ancestral hall in his mind, he told what happened in Qianjiacun today: "We are now completely at odds with Qianjiacun. Our village has injured more than a dozen people, and their village has at least injured more than half."

If he dared to bully his grandson, he was tired of living, so he beat them directly.

Mr. Xiang was the first to speak out: "Hahaha, this is a good thing. I can't even afford to eat anymore, and I'm still afraid of his little egg."

The rich man also said with a smile: "You must have your reasons for making things big. We will just follow you."

Other clan elders also echoed: "Yes, yes, we will follow you."

Mr. Xiang always knew that they would follow him, but when he heard them say this, he felt very happy: "I made the matter bigger not only for the people of Qianjia Village to see, but also for other villagers. We must tell them that our Xiangjia Village does not cause trouble, but we are not afraid of it either."

The elders nodded one after another, that's how it should be, saying that suffering a loss is a blessing, bah, that's just an excuse that you can't afford to offend.

As long as you can afford to offend him, you have to carry the bench and smash the other person's iron pot.

I have nothing to eat, and you don’t want to eat either.

Mr. Xiang continued: "The locusts have eaten all the rice in the surrounding areas. There will be a food crisis. People like us can't even afford food."

"In this way, a large number of people will start borrowing food."

"We all have wives, sisters, and daughters. The daughter-in-law's natal family, the sisters' husband's family, and the daughter's husband's family are all our relatives."

"If they come to borrow food, their conscience will be troubled if they don't borrow the food."

"Borrow it, we can't get through it."

After hearing this, Mr. Xiang and others nodded repeatedly. This is the reason, so they are worried.

If a sister or daughter who grew up together marries into another family and has no food to eat, can you watch her starve to death?

Married girls have their own families and children. At that time, you reach out to save not just one person, but a whole group of people.

You can’t feed a large group of people.

But if you don't borrow it, can you watch your relatives who are connected by blood starve to death?

You can do it if you have a bad relationship, but what about a good relationship?

Mr. Xiang has a younger sister. The brother and sister had a very good relationship when they were young. Later, the younger sister married far away. After having her own family, she rarely saw her.

I don't know how she is doing now.

Mr. Xiang continued: "We are all farmers. We have hundreds of kilograms of grain stored at home, as well as potatoes, sweet potatoes, dried vegetables and so on."

"No matter how bad it is, the things on the mountains can still feed them."

"We won't starve them to death if we don't borrow them."

"But if we borrow it now, it will tell everyone clearly that we have a lot of food."

"This loan does not mean borrowing one or two catties, but starts from a hundred catties, and the loan will not be for one or two people. We have so many relatives that we simply can't afford it."

"Xiao Qi said there would be a drought, but now that the drought has not come yet, if we lend the grain out, it will only become a joke to other villages."

"Those who can borrow food when there is food at home can basically establish a relationship with them, because they only care about themselves and not our life and death."

"If we borrow food and go out now, the surrounding villages may even come to rob us."

"That's why I took advantage of what happened to my family Dasong to severely destroy Qianjia Village to establish my authority. I also wanted to show it to others."

"Don't sigh. What I said is the truth. Of course, I don't mean to let you watch them starve to death."

"I mean we can't borrow food now, we have to borrow it when they can't survive."

"At that time, they will be grateful to us and not stab us in the back."

"Sending help in times of need can make people remember and appreciate it. There is really no need to add icing on the cake."

"There is no need to invite tigers and hungry wolves to ourselves and put us into crisis."

"Having said all this, I still want to tell everyone that what should be bought and what should be stocked up must be done quietly, and the days ahead will be even more difficult."

Severe droughts and colds are not easy to live with. If those children are disobedient and don't make more preparations, the days ahead will be too difficult.

Xiang Lao and others kept nodding: "That's the truth. We all understand what Li Zheng said. We understand."

They are all old guys in their sixties or seventies. How can they not understand these principles? They are not young boys.

Mr. Xiang said everything he wanted to say, and told them that they must let the young boys at home plant crops in the fields quickly, so as not to waste time by wasting the fields.

Mr. Xiang and others nodded again and again, and would definitely urge the children to do the same when they got home.

Drought, this is not a joke, it is a tragedy with corpses everywhere.

In addition, locusts have come and gone now, which makes it even more difficult for them.

After everyone finished the meeting, they got up and came out, and saw many people gathered at the entrance of the ancestral hall.

The ancestral hall is a very sacred place, and men in the village are not allowed to enter without permission.

Men who have committed crimes or men with bad conduct are not allowed to enter.

No women in the village are allowed to enter.

Therefore, the villagers who did not get the consent of Li Zheng and the clan elders never dared to step into the ancestral hall, and only dared to stand outside and look in.

Just now, Li Zheng and the others spoke a little softly. They vaguely seemed to hear a word or two, but in fact they heard nothing.

Now seeing Li Zheng and the elders coming out, someone immediately asked worriedly: "Li Zheng, is there a drought?"

"Old man from a wealthy family, drought is coming after the locusts, right?"

"Yes? If so, just tell us so we can get ready."

Everyone's eyes fell on Mr. Xiang, with the hope of knowing the truth in their eyes.
