Dressed as the head of the lazy village

Chapter 10 The Coffin Storm

Wang Dawei returned to the village in an ox cart from the coffin shop, which caused quite a commotion.

Although their village has enough rent to eat, they don't have any more money to spare.Such a luxury as a coffin has not been seen for a few years. Except for the old people who prepared the coffin in the early years, everyone in the village wrapped it in a mat and buried it hastily.

Wang Dawei actually bought a coffin for Wang Chengliang, and it was such a magnificent coffin!

A group of people looked around for a while, and then a woman said, "This wood looks like cypress, isn't it old and cheap?" If it wasn't for this coffin, I wish I could touch it with my hands.

Wang Dawei lowered his eyes to unload the goods: "No, it's just ordinary poplar."

"That's not bad, after all, it's worth three or five boards, and it looks impressive." The woman was a little jealous, and said sourly: "The village head's family has saved all this money quietly, and they don't help them at all. People in the village, everyone is having a hard time. None of the three boys in my family mentioned a daughter-in-law..."

These words expressed the feelings of many people: "That is, it is not kind to the village chief to get rich without telling the big guys. Coffins are always buried in the ground, and there is no need to buy such a good one. It is better to take them out." Money to help the village..."

"No, it's good to just change some salt. There hasn't been any salty smell in the house for a long time. The village chief went to the county with great difficulty. Didn't he bring something else back?"

The guy from the Shoucai shop who was helping to press the car next to him was drunk, who are these people?

Wang Dawei said expressionlessly: "This is a coffin bought with the money my uncle plans to buy a daughter-in-law. The money he earns will naturally be spent on him. Does the big guy still want to steal money from the dead?"

Although the people in the village really thought so, it was ugly and unlucky to say it.The villagers were still quite awed and afraid of ghosts and gods, so naturally they didn't dare to steal money from Wang Chengliang, who had become a ghost, and all of them looked ugly when they were bullied.

An older man couldn't hold back his face, and said displeasedly: "What are you talking about, Wei boy? The big guy sees that your old Wang family has been the village head for several generations, and trusts your Wang family. But the village is going downhill every year, and the young If this continues, our village will become an extinct village! Everyone was anxious and said a few words, is this your attitude?"

If you have something to do, call the village chief, if you have nothing to do, Wei, hehe.

Wang Dawei sneered in his heart, he was thinking about things in his heart along the way, and he didn't want to get entangled with them at first.But looking at the current situation, if you don't show some momentum, will you really treat me like a persimmon?Immediately, he cleaned up the hemp rope tied on the coffin, and threw it heavily on his feet: "Don't use the money from the elders to suppress me. Back then, some of you came to my house in person and asked me to be the head of this village. I hate us. The old Wang’s family is burdening the village, making it impossible for you to marry a daughter-in-law—how about our old Wang’s family let Xian abdicate, and you come to be the head of this village?”

The old man used to beat Wang Chengliang with these words in the past, he had tried everything, but this time he kicked the iron plate at Wang Dawei's place, and suddenly felt that his dignity as an elder was offended.But he was afraid that Wang Dawei would really pick him up and force him to become the village head, his old face flushed red: "You, you... I never said that your old Wang family brought trouble to the village."

"But that's what you mean inside and outside the words. It's not just your meaning, but many people in the village mean it, right?"

The old man was turned off by someone face to face, and was stared at by Wang Dawei with dignity, and he unconsciously became weak.Hang Chi Hang Chi took a few breaths: "I'm not, I don't!" After that, he lowered his head and put his hands behind his back, and got out of the crowd.

The rest of the villagers looked at Wang Dawei with disapproving and condemning eyes, but no one dared to speak casually anymore, for fear of being beaten back like the old man just now.

At this moment, the sky was getting dark, Wang Dawei was standing beside a coffin, and there was a paper figurine standing behind it—the big beauty that the craftsman had indeed pasted a sign on, with a flying fairy bun, delicately drawn eyebrows and eyes, and two red cheeks , wearing red and green.It's just not like Xi Shi, but like Chang'e on the modern moon cake box.

Wang Dawei in such a gloomy background gave the villagers a little fear: he was no longer the timid boy he used to be, but more imposing than the magistrate, making people dare not provoke him at will.

Wang Dawei lowered his eyelashes, and instantly suppressed his aura.The villagers blinked, and felt that they were dazzled just now, and their new village chief still looked so gentle.

It's just that no one dared to choke anymore.

"Everyone should go back earlier. Go to the back mountain tomorrow morning, and bury my uncle as agreed before." Wang Dawei still needs these villagers at the moment, so it's not good to tear them apart and deal with them ruthlessly.After all, he still didn't know why the villagers needed help to bury Wang Chengliang. It might be a special custom. "I take the matter of the villagers marrying their wives to heart. If it goes well, it might be resolved a year ago."

The villagers who didn't agree with him just now widened their eyes in disbelief.

what did he say?Before the Chinese New Year, it was all resolved? ? ?

This is bragging, right?Although there are not many people in their village, there are only forty households—now that Zhao Shitou's family has been expelled, there are only thirty-nine households left.

There are more than 50 unmarried men and women at least, have they all been resolved?What about dreams?

"However, you have to work hard yourself. I'm alone, and I don't have superhuman powers. It's impossible for every household to stare at me. You should tidy up your house anyway, and make it look like it should be repaired." Wang Dawei seriously road.

Because of laziness, the people in the village didn't even bother to drag the grain to the city to sell it, so they drank thick porridge and had enough to eat, but they had no cash in hand.

The straw on the roofs of many houses is rotten, and they are too lazy to repair it themselves, and they have no money to hire someone to repair it, so the family makes do with it, hoping to find a reason for the Wang family to repair it someday.

Wang Dawei is not used to their faults.

Sure enough, dissatisfaction appeared on the faces of many people: "It turned out that the old village chief helped us repair it. This kind of work is so dangerous, we will not..."

Wang Dawei directly said with a straight face: "I'll tell those whose houses have been tidied up first about the daughter-in-law, and talking about the daughter-in-law is quite a waste of time, and I don't have time to do other things."

"..."

The people in the village were very unhappy, and they didn't know why this happened.Why did this boy who used to be shy and timid seem to become hardened overnight?

However, what Wang Dawei said made them dare not refute, after all, getting a wife is the most important thing.

A group of people were holding fire and walking towards their home, and Wang Dawei was still shouting from behind: "Don't forget to go up the mountain to bury my uncle tomorrow morning."

It contained a faint threatening meaning: if you don't come, you won't tell his family a daughter-in-law.

In this way, those people who originally wanted to take advantage of this matter to take advantage of Wang Dawei also calmed down.They looked up at the leaky roof of their house, and after a while they still lowered their heads and slipped into the house: They said they were married years ago, it was still too early, and it would be a day if they could procrastinate!

……

The clerk and the coachman of the coffin shop helped unload the goods and carried the coffin into the yard. The paper figurines were put in Wang Chengliang's room for fear of getting wet in the dew at night.

"Thanks for your hard work." Wang Dawei took out a few more pennies, intending to give the two of them tea as a labor fee.Unexpectedly, the guy and the coachman looked at each other, but refused with a heartbroken face: "Forget it, your life is not easy."

Wang Dawei: "..."

The guy said: "I shouldn't have said something. I heard all kinds of rumors about Lazy Man Village, and today I know how difficult it is for you to be the village chief. If you knew that this coffin was bought by the original village chief, it would be our shopkeeper." It will be cheaper for you."

Wang Dawei: "..."

So in the rumors, how miserable is their old Wang family? ?

...it seems to be really miserable.Wang Dawei, who saw off the buddy and the coachman and sneaked out to dig wild vegetables under the moonlight, said in his heart.

I bought salt and rapeseed oil today, and he really doesn't want to drink porridge with shells.

He can also see that although the Gu family is poor, she has lived in the village for decades, and the habits of the lazy man village are not less contaminated, so it is impossible to expect her to cook some exquisite food.

Fortunately, as his son made a request, Gu Shi would not refuse to help him light the fire.Wang Dawei didn't even dare to bring a basket, so he picked a handful of wild vegetables and put them in his arms, slipped by the wall and went home.

It is so difficult to eat fried wild vegetables!

Seeing his son's appearance, Gu Shi was also made nervous, and asked tremblingly, "Is this really good? If people in the village find out, I don't know how to make a fuss."

Wang Dawei said coldly: "What are you afraid of? I spent my own money to buy oil and salt, and I fried the wild vegetables I picked to eat. Is it still a loss?!"

—It would be more convincing if the deed was less furtive.
