A man travels through time and becomes a widow, only wanting to pursue a career
Chapter 141 A generous donation
Chenjiacun is not a prosperous village among the many villages in Baishui County. People in the village are more or less familiar with the situation of public accounts. If brown rice cannot be distributed, then the village's work will be in vain.
Seeing the hesitation of those people, Chen Erlai added, "We can't finish the farm work in the fields, so how can we have free time to work as a patrol team. If we have that time, why not lie down at home and have a good sleep."
Chen Changsheng and Li Zheng both looked at Chen Erlai, wondering what kind of monster the other party wanted to do.
This Chen Erlai is not only lazy but also has evil thoughts. He is always causing trouble in the village and is not worth helping at all.
On weekdays, if it weren't for the sake of his two children, Li Zheng would really not want to talk to him at all.
"Two kilograms of brown rice is not much. Maybe everyone thinks it is less and not rare, but this is also the intention of the village. If any of you feel that Chen Erlai is right and don't want to join the patrol team, you can quit. I Now cross out your names." Li Zheng looked at the crowded crowd on the battlefield and asked in a deep voice.
The noisy crowd on the battlefield was quiet for a moment. Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and then the noise started again.
"Uncle Li Zheng, I have too much work in the fields. I'm afraid I don't have time to guard the village entrance. I'd better quit the patrol team."
"I also plan to quit. I still have some brown rice at home. I will go to the mountains to get some wild vegetables and mix it with it. I will not be hungry if I move less on weekdays. It is just enough."
"My family is extremely poor and there is nothing for others to steal. I'd better quit this patrol."
"..."
Li Zheng could see clearly from the front that those who wanted to quit were all lazy people in the village, only four or five families.
He looked sharply at the people who were about to quit, then glanced around and said, "Is there anyone else who wants to quit? If you really don't want to do the patrol work, just quit." My old man is not an unreasonable person."
There was no more fuss on the field.
Chen Changsheng listened on the side, with an imperceptible smile on his lips.
With Chen Lizheng's temper, if these people quit, they probably won't have to sign up again in the future.
They were originally given brown rice, but they were instigated to go on strike before they even started working. No wonder these people were the poorest in the village.
Chen Lizheng finally looked at Chen Changsheng again, and said calmly, "That's good, it just so happens that our patrol team has selected a group of determined people, rather than just fagots."
Chen Erlai shouted, "Old man Chen, who are you calling a loser?" He lectured the people on the field, "Humph, you guys just wait to be fooled by Old Man Chen. Don't say anything. Two months of brown rice, in my opinion, is worthless. Wang Mazi, aren't you quitting?"
Wang Mazi was a little shaken.
He was a widower, and his wife died on the way to escape famine. Wang Mazi fled to Chenjia Village and picked up a dilapidated thatched hut to live in. A lonely man whose wife died, there was nothing to do in his life.
After living in Chenjiacun for several years, his reputation was also ruined. These days, I have been working with Ma Daqiang every day to make a keel water tanker. People in the village have a good impression of him, and occasionally talk to him, and even help him water the fields.
Sometimes Ma Daqiang would let him have dinner at home. Seeing Ma Daqiang's family talking and laughing, Wang Mazi suddenly wanted to have a wife and children.
Tang Xiaolong couldn't stand it anymore, he frowned and cursed, "You Chen Erlai, if you don't want to be a patrol team, just get out and don't stir up trouble here."
He looked down upon Chen Erlai's personality and demeanor the most.
"Hey, you're an outsider, but you taught me a lesson named Chen. What's wrong with you!" Chen Erlai pointed at Li Zheng and shouted, "Old man Chen, I'm from Chenjia Village. You can't help outsiders. bully me."
Li Zheng's eyes almost rolled to the sky.
"Wang Mazi, what do you mean? Do you want to return it or keep it?" Ma Daqiang in the crowd said.
Catching Ma Daqiang's gaze and then looking at Chen Erlai, Wang Mazi's eyes flickered a little. He swallowed and whispered, "Brother Daqiang, I will follow you. If you retreat, I will retreat with you. If you don't If you don’t retreat, I won’t retreat either.”
Chen Erlai scolded, "Wang Mazi, when did you listen to Ma Daqiang so much? Ma Daqiang's surname is not Chen, how capable he is as an outsider. If your work is in vain, don't complain."
Wang Mazi ignored those words.
What is Baigan? Even if there are not two kilograms of brown rice, the patrol team is still protecting the safety of the people in their own village.
Li Zheng waved his hand, interrupting the whispers below, "Those of you who want to withdraw can leave. We will continue to discuss the patrol team."
"We're not leaving. This is the village's barracks. We're here to enjoy the breeze after we've eaten. What's wrong?" Chen Erlai was indeed Laizi.
Chen Changsheng on the side suddenly said, "Uncle Li Zheng, they are all from the same village, so it's okay to let them enjoy the cool air here. It's getting dark, let's continue."
"Hey, Widow Chen is easier to talk to. I know Widow Chen is looking towards me in her heart." Chen Erlai said obscenely.
Chen Changsheng curled up his lips and smiled.
Later, she was lifting the red cloth on the table. She wanted to take a good look at the expressions on those people's faces. They must be very exciting. She couldn't wait.
Li Zheng folded the paper with the list and carefully put it into his arms. He stood up from the table and said loudly, "My old man hasn't finished speaking just now. In fact, there is indeed no money in the village's public accounts. It’s just enough to buy dozens of kilograms of brown rice.”
Chen Erlai had a arrogant expression, as if to say: "Look, I guessed it right, this old man is just playing tricks on you fools." 】
"In the afternoon we went to the mountains and arrested a few people from Zhaojiacun. The eldest daughter-in-law of the Chen family couldn't stand it anymore, so she fought hard with the people from Zhaojiacun to get back the stolen food money from the Zhao family. .”
Everyone's eyes immediately turned to Chen Changsheng, and they all praised, "Dafu Niang is really amazing, she can even get money back from Zhaojiacun."
Li Zheng continued, "This money belongs to Dafu Niang. Without her, this farmland would be nothing. But she understands the righteousness and knows that there is no money in the public account and the village is now setting up a patrol team. Dafu Mom thought that she couldn’t let the patrol team work in vain, so she decided to donate the money and use it exclusively for the patrol team’s expenses.”
He excitedly lifted up the red cloth, and underneath was a shining silver ingot. Chen Lizheng shouted at the top of his lungs, "The eldest daughter-in-law of the Chen family has donated twenty-eight taels of silver! Donate it to the public account of our village!"
The battlefield suddenly exploded!
Everyone's eyes are firmly fixed on the silver on the table!
