Just one pregnancy and four babies, but the prince actually pledged his love to her

Taohua Village Chief Wang continued, "Yes, Old Li, you don't have to worry. During this period, we have all made a lot of money with the Li family girl, and our lives have become much better. We all know how to be grateful. We understand that without the Li family girl, it won't be long before we will go back to the hard life we ​​had before, and that's not what everyone wants to see."

"Besides, even if we don't go up the mountain to look for people, we don't know how long we can hold out under the severe drought and the crops in the fields are not harvested. Now the Li family girl has pointed out a way for us to go up the mountain to find water. If we pretend that we didn't see it, we won't be able to ask for help when we find the water source."

As soon as Village Chief Wang finished speaking, Village Chief Ji spoke again.

"Village Chief Wang is right. We in Shitou Village are also concerned about water. If we don't help now, how will we be able to ask for it later?"

"It's the same for us in Guihua Village. We don't just want to help your village find people. We just want to use water to irrigate the land."

"Who says it's not true? I think the girl from the Li family is very capable. She can make the inconspicuous locust business so popular, which has boosted the income of the surrounding villages. Now everyone no longer has to tighten their belts, but has to eat well every day so that they have the strength to catch locusts. I think, if we, the peasants, want to have enough food, we should just follow the girl from the Li family and do whatever she tells us to do." said Zheng, the village chief of Meihua Village.

The more Village Chief Li listened, the more he felt something was wrong, and he suddenly slapped his thigh.

"Hey, let me tell you, Miss Yue is from our Xinghua Village. She has nothing to do with you. How come Miss Yue is from your village?"

Village Chief Zhou of Zhoujia Village disagreed and said, "Old Li, you are wrong to think like that. What do you mean Yue girl is from your village? I said she is from Qingshan Town. All our villages belong to Qingshan Town. If we round it off, Yue girl is ours too."

"Old Zhou, that's not how it's calculated. I don't agree." Village Chief Li retorted.

Before Village Chief Li could jump up and down, several village chiefs grabbed him.

"Old Li, whether you admit it or not, Li Mengyue belongs to all of us. Now she has taken people up the mountain and we don't know whether she is alive or dead. We have to go to the mountain to look for her."

"Yes, we just informed you and sent someone up the mountain to look for him."

Village Chief Li was touched to see that everyone was not reluctant at all, but he still said, "Be careful."

"You don't need to tell me that. Everyone knows it. We old guys should just wait patiently for good news."

So the young and strong men from the six villages took their tools and went up the mountain to look for people.

After the 180 people left, the people of Zhulin Village began to mock and ridicule again.

"It's fine if Xinghua Village is making trouble, but now other villages are following suit. It's better to stop before the losses are too great. You know, there is a mountain god in the deep mountains. If they do this, they will anger the mountain god, and what will happen if it affects other villages?"

The villagers of the original six villages were quite supportive of the village chief's decision to have them go up the mountain to look for people, and they were very determined.

But after hearing what someone from Zhulin Village said, he became a little shaken. He felt that the people of Xinghua Village had already lost so much, and they shouldn't rush to seek death.

What's more, this is just the beginning, and the people in Xinghua Village have already lost nearly a hundred people. If the water source is really found and the water is brought out from the mountains, wouldn't more people die in the mountains?

Thinking of this, several villages went to find their own village chiefs to get the person back; there was still time.

Village chief Li and others looked very unhappy. As village chiefs, although they had prestige in the village, they were not the type to quarrel.

Faced with the ridicule and sarcasm from Zhulin Village, I could only pretend not to hear them.

Besides, Li Mengyue took people up the mountain and did not bring them back yesterday. This is a fact and cannot be refuted at all.

If I really argue about this with a group of women, I will give them something to talk about.

"Look, Li An and the others have been in the mountains for such a long time, and we don't know how they are doing. In my opinion, there is an 80% chance that they will not come back. You people in Xinghua Village should make plans as soon as possible, otherwise you will have no place to cry." Mrs. Wu reminded.

"That's right, Li Mengyue is a fake daughter. It's only your village that is willing to play with her. If such a person were in our Zhulin Village, she would have been dragged away and drowned in the pond long ago."

"I think Li Mengyue is an unlucky person. Otherwise, she would be fine if she went up the mountain alone, but she couldn't come back if she brought people up. It's better for us to come to Xinghua Village less often in the future."

"Stop talking nonsense, you people from Zhulin Village are foul-mouthed. Stop talking nonsense here. Our girl Yue is fine." When the village chief's wife heard someone slandering Li Mengyue, she was immediately furious and retorted without any politeness.

"Zhou Juan, you are also the wife of the village chief, why are you only trying to curry favor with a maid?" Wu said sarcastically.

Since Zhou Juan married Village Chief Li, although she had a good reputation and the man in her family was a village chief, she could not live a life of full food and warm clothing.

It was Li Mengyue's coming to Xinghua Village that gave her and some other women the opportunity to earn money in the village. Not only did this allow her to find her self-worth, but the fifteen cents she earned every day could also supplement the family income.

Therefore, she was very grateful to Li Mengyue and would not tolerate anyone saying bad things about Yue girl.

"Mrs. Wu, don't think that I won't dare slap you in the face just because you are the wife of the village head of Zhulin Village."

"you dare."

"See if I dare."

Zhou Juan and Wu had a quarrel over Li Mengyue. The women from the two villages, who couldn't bear to see people from their own village being bullied, also started a confrontation.

Logically speaking, Li should have stood up to protect her daughter, but at the moment she was not in the threshing ground, but waiting at the foot of the mountain.

"Mom, my sister is very strong. She will be fine. Don't worry too much."

Li touched her son's head and said worriedly, "Minghao, I know. It's just that I haven't seen your sister for a long time, and I'm very upset."

"Mom, you have been standing here since Dad came up the mountain. Why don't you sit down and rest and wait?" Mingyu suggested when he saw that his mother looked unhappy.

"Mom is not tired. I'll just stand here and wait for your sister." Li's eyes were always looking up the mountain, hoping to see her daughter's figure in the next moment.

When Li brought her three sons and wanted to wait for her daughter and her husband at the foot of the mountain, Zebao came running over.

"Aunt Li, someone is cursing Sister Yue in the threshing ground."

When Li heard this, she smiled at Zebao in a friendly manner, and then went to the threshing ground without saying a word.

When Wu said that Li Mengyue would not come back, Mrs. Li, who was watching the excitement in the crowd, was very happy. While watching Wu and Zhou Juan quarreling, she whispered to herself: "The little bitch will not come back, and Li An will have to listen to me. Then the things that the little bitch bought will become ours."

Thinking of this, Old Mrs. Li hugged one arm with difficulty and glared at Zhou Juan fiercely.

"Zhou Juan, so what if you are the village chief's wife? I will get a large sum of money soon, and I will live a good life."

Seeing Zhou Juan defending Li Mengyue, Wu started to curse again: "I told you, Li Mengyue is just a slut, a slut that no one wants. She will definitely not come back after going up the mountain this time."

"Snapped!"
