Traveling through ancient times to survive

Chapter 101 Successful Separation

The matter was a foregone conclusion. Zhao Chengshan was unwilling and dared not stop the clan leader. Of course, Mrs. Zhao was happy to see it happen. The dead girl was separated and one person's food was saved. As for whether she was worried about whether Zhao Lan would get the betrothal money in the future? Of course, she was not worried. Even if the dead girl was separated, she was still the girl's biological mother and she could still make the decision on the marriage.

Mrs. Zhao was still immersed in the wonderful fantasy that she could get the bride price without raising a daughter, but the clan leader's words directly shattered her plan.

"Lan girl is not yet an adult, you have to provide food to support her every year."

Mrs. Zhao blurted out, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Who still needs parents to support them after the family is divided? In other families, the children take care of their parents in their old age!"

The clan leader asked incredulously, "You still want a thirteen-year-old girl to support you two adults with hands and feet?"

Everyone couldn't believe that someone could be so shameless, and they looked at the two of them with strange eyes. Mrs. Zhao had already given up, and she didn't know what others thought of her, while Zhao Chengshan felt that he had lost all the face he would lose in his lifetime today, and he couldn't even get angry anymore.

"Shut up! Follow the clan leader's orders."

Although Mrs. Zhao shut up, she was still refutation in her heart, didn't she ask that money-losing thing to support her? If she had to provide food for her, what's the point of dividing the family!

"Grandpa Patriarch, I don't need them to provide food. I can support myself."

Zhao Lan didn't dare to agree. To take food rations from Mrs. Zhao was almost like asking for half her life. Even if the clan leader forced her to provide food, Mrs. Zhao would be unhappy and would cause trouble every day, wouldn't she?

If the clan leader can help me once, can he help me every day? Even though everyone is indignant today and stands on my side, it is because Mrs. Zhao and her husband are really too much. Everyone sympathizes with the weak, and I am really miserable.

Zhao Lan saw it clearly. If her trivial matters annoyed everyone, everyone would have a different attitude. In the minds of these ancient people, blood ties could not be severed. As a child, was it a big deal for her to be tormented by her own mother?

Anyway, Zhao Lan herself has a golden finger, and that amount of food is not enough for her to harvest for a day. Why should she get into trouble for such a small profit?

"Grandpa, the clan leader, my sister can cultivate the land by herself, and I can help her, so my parents don't have to be responsible."

Zhao Hong also agreed with her sister's decision. Her sister would soon be free from the clutches of the devil. She didn't want to create any more trouble. What if her mother was angry and refused to divide the family? The clan leader had helped her sister so much. Zhao Hong just wanted to settle the matter quickly while her grandparents were not at home. Moreover, not wanting food was not without benefits. Everyone knew that her sister didn't rely on them for support, so they would not be right if they wanted to control her in the future.

Zhao Qing also spoke up to help: "Grandpa Chief, don't worry, I wasn't just being polite. You know my hunting skills, I won't let Lan Ya go hungry."

Mrs. Zhao was secretly delighted and wished she could agree on behalf of Zhao Lan. The second son's family was still a fool who wanted to support an outsider as soon as she opened her mouth. However, this fool was directed at her own dead girl, which was very good. When the dead girl was eating meat, I would ask her for meat. Would she dare to refuse?

"Okay, if you don't want food, forget it," the clan leader nodded in agreement, then looked at Zhao Chengshan and his wife fiercely, "You have already separated from Lan Ya, and if you dare to bully Lan Ya again in the future, I will not allow it!"

"Yes, everyone is watching. If they dare to cause trouble for Lan Ya, we will not allow it."

"Lan Ya, if your parents secretly cause trouble for you, just let them know, and your uncles and aunts will support you."

The tribesmen who were watching the scene spoke up for the cause, which moved Zhao Lan deeply.

As the saying goes, a shameless person is invincible, and Mrs. Zhao was once again fearlessly stubborn.

"You are a bunch of flatterers. I have never seen you love her so much before. It's because that damn girl leaked the recipe for making bricks. By the way, this is my family's recipe. You must compensate me."

"Bullshit!"

"Hey! You're full of shit! I'm going to tear your stinky mouth apart today!"

"court death!"

"If you don't want to live anymore, just tell me, I will definitely satisfy you."

This wave of ridicule really stirred up a hornet's nest. The aunts rolled up their sleeves and were about to hit people, but the clan leader shouted at them to stop.

"Stop it, it's embarrassing for you to fight in a group at your age!"

Zhao Chengshan wanted to cry but had no tears. His family was already galloping down the path of offending the clan members, and he was powerless to stop it. Never before had a day made him suffer so much. Tired, destroyed, this woman was beyond help.

Zhao Chengshan closed his eyes in despair, a tear slipped from the corner of his eye, so why do people want to get married? Because life is too smooth so they want to find excitement?

Zhao Chengshan was so shocked that his mind became blurred and he began to doubt his life.

Zhao Lan finally understood what Mrs. Zhao was thinking today. She felt so disgusted. She wanted to take advantage of her, but no way!

"This method was thought up by my cousin. I only helped with the mud work. My cousin took care of me and gave me the credit, saying that we thought of it together. Everyone knows that I have never been out of the village, I can't read, and I have never seen the world. How can I know how to make bricks? It is even more impossible that this recipe came from my father's family, otherwise my family would have become rich long ago. How could we be so poor now?"

Zhao Lan looked at everyone sincerely, and finally turned to Zhao Qing for approval. Zhao Qing nodded helplessly.

"Yes, when I went to the county town, I accidentally saw someone digging a lot of mud. After asking, I learned that it was used to make bricks. Now I want to build a house, and I just remembered this, so I wanted to give it a try. I didn't expect that I really succeeded."

"So that's how it is. Qing Ya is really getting better and better. Not only is she good at hunting, she's also smart. It's not like no one knows how to make the clay for making bricks, but she succeeded after just a few tries."

"Chengchuan is really good at giving birth to children. Why isn't this baby mine?"

The clansmen were envious and admiring at first, then they changed the subject and started criticizing Mrs. Zhao.

"Speaking of which, Chengchuan's family is really different from his two brothers. Not to mention the third brother, the eldest is really shameless. Qingya tested the formula and asked everyone to use it. Qingya didn't say anything, but she jumped out and claimed it for herself, and even wanted us to pay for it!"

"That's right, your face is thicker than a city wall, even a needle can't penetrate it!"

"If it's not, then it's not. How much better can you be than me? You're just trying to take advantage of me!"

Mrs. Zhao's words silenced the crowd. Everyone looked unhappy. No one was willing to spend money if they could avoid it.

Zhao Qing broke the awkward atmosphere: "The recipe is very simple, you can use it at will. Those who can come here are all our own people who trust each other, and we help each other."

The tribesmen relaxed and gave thumbs up and praised.

"Well said, we are all family, we should help each other."

"Qing Ya is generous and considerate of everyone, unlike some people who are ruthless and only want to take advantage of others."

"Qingya is so sensible, so Chengchuan must be even more selfless. It turns out that the clan leader knows how to judge people. This village chief is a good choice!"
