The little ancestor of the family

"You have officially become a villager of our village!"

"Will the village head not conduct another inspection?" Although the villagers did not object to them staying here, they were still skeptical about this matter.

"I have seen countless people with my eyes, how can I be wrong?

Besides, the lady of the Xiao family discovered that Ge Gen had made great contributions, so just for this matter, she must be given an official status!"

"Okay, the head of the village has the final say!"

Although they had some opinions about the village head on minor matters, everyone still listened to him on major matters.

"And what's going on with the Zhang Zong family?"

"Li Zheng, listen to me." When Mrs. Zhang heard the Li Zheng's question, she immediately said, "Everyone knows that I have been cooking for Xiao Huaian's children for so long. Even if I have no credit, I have worked hard!

As a result, I don't know what kind of pillow talk the bride had, and now Xiao Huaian wants to hit me for no reason.

Tell me, we can't do things this way, can we? "

"What do you think?" The village head wanted to hear Xiao Huaian's opinion.

Xiao Huaian didn't say anything, Ye Xinran walked out of the yard and said, "Mrs. Zhang, why do you only say half of what you want to say?

Xiao Huaian hired you to cook for the children, but why didn't you tell me about the monthly salary of 500 wen?

Don't always mention your hard work. If you don't want to do this job, I believe there are many people in the village who would like to do it."

"What? 500 wen a month? Such a high salary?"

"Mrs. Zhang always complained about how troublesome it was to cook for the Xiao family's children. I even scolded her for meddling in other people's business, but she never mentioned the 500 coins!"

"How can I tell you that your cooking is not much better than hers? What if I tell you that you take my job away from me?"

"Madam Ye is right. As long as Master Xiao says so, we will all do it!"

A man only earned one or two taels of silver for carrying heavy bags in the city for a month, but this was enough to cook two meals for the children and not delay housework. Everyone was delighted when they heard this.

"Mrs. Zhang, you are so dishonest!"

"That's right, why didn't you tell me about this good thing?"

Seeing everyone start to blame her, Mrs. Zhang sneered angrily: "Now that you heard that I have money, you are all jealous.

When the Xiao family first came, everyone hid farther away than the other. Have you forgotten it?"

After being scolded by Mrs. Zhang, everyone fell silent.

What she said was true. At that time, they were avoiding Xiao Huaian's family of four as much as possible.

But I didn't hear about the money. If I had known it was so much, I would have agreed at that time.

Seeing that Mrs. Zhang was getting stiff again, Ye Xinran continued, "In fact, it doesn't matter whether it's money or not. Mrs. Zhang should do her job well after receiving the money, and we can't complain.

But she took the money and didn't do anything. Not only did the children become skinny and hungry, she even accused them of stealing!

Such a young child, what does he know? He can be accused of being a thief for eating a bite of the food at home. He can't even say a word while watching the bad guys take away the food at home. No one can bear this.

We outsiders know how to do our duty, but you, the people of this clan, can't always pick on the weak!"

Following Ye Xinran's words, everyone looked at the three children.

The children were all wearing patched clothes, and each one was thinner than the other. They were really just as Ye Xinran said, three poor little things.

"Xiao Huaian only buys a small amount of food every time, so of course the three children at home can't have enough to eat. Can you blame me for this?

Anyone who saw me stealing their food can’t slander me with empty words!

There is a god above my head. If I stole the Xiao family's food, I will die a miserable death!"

Mrs. Zhang was spitting all over the place and cursing and swearing with her right hand raised.

Everyone looked at it and sneered.

In fact, everyone in the village knew that Zhang Zong and his wife were greedy, but this matter could only be settled if they were caught on the spot. If they were to speak out now, there would be no way to confirm it.

Ye Xinran didn't expect Mrs. Zhang to admit it. Anyway, the matter had been exposed, and it wasn't a bad thing to let everyone know about it.

"We accept this loss," she said.

“But I would like to kindly remind you that if you eat the food, it’s fine. I will just treat it as feeding the dog. But if you also eat the child’s medicine, it will be a big trouble.

Doctors in medical clinics diagnose symptoms and prescribe medicines. Sick people can be cured after taking the medicine, but healthy people will die of intestinal perforation and stomach rot within half a year after taking it. "

"Ah? It's so serious!"

"You're talking nonsense!" Zhang Dashan immediately retorted after hearing Ye Xinran's words and everyone's discussion: "That's clearly Polygonum multiflorum! It won't kill anyone!"

"Really? Did you only eat Polygonum multiflorum?" Ye Xinran asked.

Mrs. Zhang immediately realized something was wrong and covered her son's mouth with her hand: "Don't listen to her nonsense. Doctors prescribe medicine to save lives, not to harm people. What's this about intestines being ruptured? It's obviously something she made up."

Zhang Dashan also woke up immediately: "Yes, we didn't take it at all, who cares what medicine it is! Mom, let's go home and stay away from this family in the future."

As they spoke, the two of them supported each other and returned to the yard.

The villagers heard something from the conversation just now: "They even stole the child's medicine. This family is too shameless!"

"That's right, isn't this bringing shame to our Yunbian Village?"

"In the future, you should have less contact with their family. They are taking advantage of us!"

"This Xiao Huaian is so unlucky, how could he find such a family!"

……

Amid the discussion, everyone retreated.

The head of the village also called Xiao Huaian to discuss with him about allocating land to him.

Chang An stared at Ye Xinran with wide eyes and asked worriedly, "Aunt, will that medicine really kill people if taken?"

"No!" Ye Xinran touched Chang'an's head.

She said it on purpose to scare them, but she didn't expect Zhang Dashan to reveal his true colors all of a sudden.

Although we can't do anything to them for the time being, it's good to plant a seed of doubt in their hearts!

From now on, whenever Zhang Dashan feels uncomfortable, he will think of what happened today, making him suspect day and night that he has been poisoned. This is Ye Xinran's purpose.

They have to use a small knife to cut the meat, and their hard days are still ahead!

After sending the three children into the yard, Ye Xinran came to the village head and Xiao Huaian.

The village head pointed to the west and said, "There is a piece of thin land over there, which is considered to be the better one in our village, about two mu. I will take you to have a look later. Although it is not a good field, if you plant something there, it will eventually grow, right..."

Xiao Huaian didn't care about the land. He didn't know how to farm, so the land wouldn't be of much use to him.

But now that I have land and have become a formal villager, at least it will be much more convenient for my children to go to school in the future and they can also go to a better academy.

Ye Xinran heard what the two said and came up to them and said, "Uncle Lizheng, I don't want this piece of land. Can you give me the mountain to the east?"
