Rebirth of a Farmhouse with Space

Chapter 9 Xiangyang Village

Nan Chen was stunned, and quickly covered Xiaoya's mouth, complaining to Ms. Dong, "I told you to be more careful with your words. Xiaobao is still learning to speak, don't teach him bad things! Look at what Xiaobao has become because of you!"

Then he let go of Xiao Bao's hand and criticized him seriously, "I am your father, I cannot be so disrespectful, remember?"

Looking at her father's face that suddenly turned serious, the little girl nodded aggrievedly, her eyes filled with tears, and she looked like she was about to cry. She looked so pitiful!

Nan Ye and Nan Huai hurriedly hugged the little sister and comforted her softly, "Little sister, be good! Daddy is not angry with you, he is just, just...!"

It's hard to come up with a reason. Nan Huai said, "Dad is talking to you about reason, so you must listen to your parents and your elder and second brothers, understand?"

"Hiss, second brother, what's wrong with you? Why are you telling her all this? She's so young, she can't understand at all!"

"It's because she's still young that you need to instill these things in her frequently. Otherwise, it will be too late when she grows up!"

It seems to make sense! Nan Ye picked up Xiaoya and said awkwardly, "It's only useful if you teach her slowly. Don't scare her all at once!"

At night, the whole village gathered together to eat a pot of wild vegetable soup, which was considered dinner. Nan Chen took the stainless steel basin that had been used to hold the braised meat and also filled a small basin. Nan Huai took a sip and saw that his eyebrows were wrinkled together. Ms. Dong asked, "Why, is this wild vegetable soup not tasty?"

Nan Huai didn't say anything, but personally served his brother half a bowl, "Brother, this is yours!"

What kind of stomach does Nan Ye have? He dared to chew and swallow a worm-infested stomach, so how could he be afraid of this wild vegetable soup! Well, he overestimated his tolerance. Just as he was about to spit out the wild vegetable soup in his mouth, his father Nan Chen covered his mouth and said, "Swallow it, otherwise we will be ostracized by the whole village!"

Nan Ye closed his eyes and swallowed the wild vegetable soup in his mouth, "Ah, it's so bitter!"

Nan Huai pursed his lips and smiled, "This is called Land Yellow, it has anti-inflammatory, heat-clearing and detoxifying effects! But don't eat too much, or you'll have diarrhea!"

After Nan Chen went to ask around, he came back to know that these dozen households had only arrived not long ago. The people here did not come from the same place. They all fled from all directions. Later, they met Zhao Bo, and under his command, this group of people settled down here!

At night, Zhao Bo asked his only son and Han Dazhuang to light a bonfire in the center of the village, and then called everyone over.

Zhao Bo coughed twice before saying, "Quiet, everyone listen to me!"

It was mainly because of a few disobedient children who were making a fuss. After Uncle Zhao said this, the parents of those children immediately went to discipline their children. The scene became quiet, and Uncle Zhao then said, "Right now, our village is already full of 15 households. Tomorrow I will let my son and Hu's buddy go to the Huai'an County Government Office and try to settle our village as soon as possible!"

"Can you guys think of a good name for our village?"

"Guangxi Village, let's call it that. Uncle Chen, our village is vast and sparsely populated. It's very suitable for the situation, isn't it just like a loudspeaker!" Tang Sanni's words triggered a burst of laughter!

"Come on, what the hell are you talking about!"

Uncle Chen said seriously, "Shut up, what are you doing making such a fuss? If you have any good ideas, say it, otherwise shut up!"

Nan Chen's clothes had almost all been dried by the fire. He turned around and planned to dry the other side. "Uncle Zhao, why don't we call it Xiangyang Village? Facing the sun, let our descendants walk in the sun and grow up in the spring breeze!"

"Well, this is good!" Uncle Chen looked at Nan Chen and asked, "Have you ever been to school and can read?"

Nan Chen was humble for once, "I know a few characters!"

That’s enough. Tomorrow you, my eldest son, and Hu Tiezi will go to the county government office and get the household registration for all of us handled at the same time!

Nan Chen was stunned. Did he find a job? It was too sudden. "Hey, okay!"

"Well, this matter has been settled. The next thing is to elect the village chief. There are three candidates here, my son Zhao Yunchuan, Hu Tiezi from the Hu family, and the one who just came today... Nan, Nan, Nan what's that?"

Uncle Zhao looked at Nanchen awkwardly and asked him what his full name was. To be honest, Nanchen was a little confused. He didn't want to be a candidate for village chief. He was busy with his own family, so how could he have the time to care about others!

However, Nanchen still told Uncle Zhao his name, "Nanchen, Uncle Zhao, I don't want to..."

"Oh, her name is Nan Chen. If any of you support her, please stand on her side! But let me be frank, the position of village chief can only be filled by capable people, who can lead the villagers to prosperity. If you don't have the ability, you'd better give up the idea as soon as possible!"

Hu Tiezi took two steps back before saying, "Uncle Zhao, I know a few words, but I know my own worth. I can't take on the position of village chief!"

Zhao Bo asked, "So, you gave up?"

"Yeah, that's right, I give up!"

The triangle became two corners, and the villagers' superiority and inferiority were immediately apparent. There was no one behind Nanchen at all!

Uncle Zhao stopped talking again. "Okay, since you guys elected the village chief, you all have to listen to him from now on!"

Zhao Yunchuan clasped his hands together and expressed his gratitude with great excitement, "I, Zhao Yunchuan, will definitely not let you down for your support." After saying that, he even bowed to everyone!

"The village chief is Zhao Yunchuan and the governor is Nanchen. Okay, we have to go to the county government tomorrow morning, so everyone should go to bed early tonight!"

Everyone dispersed. On the way back, Ms. Dong leaned close to Nan Chen's ear and asked, "Do you think the county town here is the same as the county town in Daliang Village?"

"No, our place is under the jurisdiction of Huaian County, and Daliang Village is under the jurisdiction of Hongliang County. The locations are also different. Don't worry, I am here to arrange our family's life well!"

Ms. Dong trusts him very much in this regard. In the past, she never had to worry about matters in his life!

"Okay, I believe you. Go back and rest early. I'm going to take Xiaobao to bed too. Xiaobao is so sleepy that he can't even open his eyes!"

There are only a dozen households in Xiangyang Village, and they are all refugees. They are penniless.

The next morning, Nanchen put on his clothes and put on cloth shoes with exposed toes. No matter how tattered the clothes and shoes were, one must have energy and spirit. With energy and spirit, one can be halfway to success in doing things efficiently!

He walked out of Han Dazhuang's house. The current village chief and his father, Zhao Bo, were already waiting outside. "Nanchen, this is the sweet potato our family cooked for you. Please eat it!"

Nan Chen refused, not because he disliked it, but because he couldn't bring himself to eat it. Uncle Zhao's legs were shaking, and his cheeks were sunken. How hungry must he be to look like this! "Uncle Zhao, I can't have this, you keep it for yourself!"
