Poisonous Pet World: The War King's Heart-stealing Medical Concubine
Chapter 121 Their movements became more and more violent, and their emotions became more and more ex
As soon as Jun Feimo returned to the palace, he went straight to the housekeeper. Seeing his own prince's face filled with unconcealed joy, the housekeeper couldn't help but feel curious, wondering how this prince could become so happy after just going out for a walk.
"Butler, please go to the storeroom quickly and pick out all the precious and rare items inside and put them aside separately." Jun Feimo ordered.
When the housekeeper heard this, he was full of doubts, "My Lord, what are you going to do?"
Jun Feimo raised his lips slightly, his eyes sparkling with excitement: "I will prepare the betrothal gifts in advance!"
The butler was stunned for a moment, and when he came to his senses, he immediately did as the prince asked with a smile on his face.
At the same time, Murong Zixi keenly sensed the hidden aura in the darkness around her early in the morning.
She frowned slightly, and seeing that the person in the dark had no murderous intent, she guessed that it was Jun Feimo's man, so she didn't care. She didn't know that Jun Feimo was actively preparing the betrothal gifts at this time.
After breakfast, Murong Zixi asked Xiao Muzi to gather the villagers in the village together.
She stood in front of the crowd, "Dear fellow villagers!" Her voice was clear and powerful, penetrating the morning mist and reaching everyone's ears.
"For a long time, Steward Liu and his son have been like a cloud of haze hanging over our land. Their evil deeds have brought endless pain to this manor that should have been full of vitality and harmony. Now, I have brought Steward Liu and his son to justice and sought justice for everyone.
But I know that this is far from enough, so today I would like to announce an important decision to everyone - from today on, I will exempt you from three years of rent and taxes, and re-establish a reasonable rent and tax system to ensure that you can live and work in peace and contentment.
I hope that through these measures, your life will become better and this village will become a warm and happy home."
The villagers looked at each other, an expression of disbelief on everyone's face, but then their eyes were filled with gratitude, as if they had gathered into an ocean of gratitude.
The village chief, an old man with snow-white hair and beard, trembled as he walked out of the crowd and bowed deeply. His voice became choked with emotion: "Miss, we really cannot repay your kindness! The heavy four-layer tax was like a huge stone pressing on us, which put many families in trouble. Even in a good year, we could only barely make ends meet. If we encountered natural disasters or famine, it would be even more difficult. We could only rely on eating wild vegetables to survive. Now Miss has exempted us from rent and taxes for three years. It is really a great thing for us. On behalf of the villagers, I would like to thank Miss for her kindness."
At this time, Nanny Li stepped forward and said, "Miss, the manor should only collect 20% of the rent from the villagers. Don't worry about the extra 20%. It must have been embezzled by Manager Liu and his son."
As soon as these words were uttered, there was an uproar in the crowd, and anger and dissatisfaction emerged like a volcano, but when everyone saw Murong Zixi's gentle and firm gaze, these emotions gradually subsided.
"Fellow villagers, please listen to me," Murong Zixi's voice became more gentle and powerful, "In order to make up for the past pain, we will exempt you from rent and taxes for three years. After three years, we will restore the previous 20% rent and taxes. Everyone can take this opportunity to recuperate. Are you satisfied?"
As soon as these words were spoken, thunderous cheers broke out in the crowd, "Satisfied! Satisfied! Thank you, Miss!" These simple words were filled with the villagers' endless gratitude and hope.
Murong Zixi gently stretched out her hands and pressed them down slightly, signaling everyone to be quiet. In an instant, the originally noisy crowd became silent.
She slowly swept her eyes over the crowd, her expression serious and firm, and her tone lowered: "Anyone who came to the farm with silver and copper coins to bully the girls, please stand up consciously."
After hearing these words, the villagers looked at each other in bewilderment.
Seeing this, Murong Zixi raised her eyebrows and said, "If someone can come forward and report one of the people who bullied the girl, then I will take back the land rented to him and rent all of my land to the person who reported it."
This sentence was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, instantly causing ripples and the crowd was suddenly in an uproar.
At this moment, a man named Gou Si suddenly pointed at Zhang San and shouted, "Miss, Zhang San used to bully these girls, and he came back to brag that he only spent ten cents to sleep with a girl who was a hundred times prettier than his wife!"
As soon as the voice fell, a fat woman rushed forward, put her hands on her hips, pinched Zhang San's ears, and angrily scolded: "Okay, Zhang San, you have no conscience. I work like a slave for your Zhang family and can't even get enough food, but you use your copper coins to play with other girls! Let me see how I will deal with you today!"
Zhang San screamed in pain and tried to break free from the fat woman's hand, but she was too strong.
"Ah... let go... you fat woman, don't you see that you look like a pig? If I didn't marry you, do you think anyone would dare to marry you?" Zhang San roared while struggling.
When the fat woman heard this, she was immediately furious and cursed angrily: "Ah...I'm going to fight you!"
She just waved her strong arms, and rushed towards Zhang San angrily, trying to catch him with her claws and teeth.
Zhang San was not willing to be outdone and immediately raised his hands to try to resist.
For a moment, the two men were engaged in a fierce struggle, neither giving in. Their movements became more and more violent, and their emotions became more and more excited.
When the villagers who were watching on the side saw this scene, they couldn't help but cheer, as if they were watching a wonderful fighting show.
Zhang San was thin and looked particularly fragile compared to his wife's strong body. After a while, he was at a disadvantage. The wife mercilessly pressed Zhang San under her and punched him like raindrops, making Zhang San scream.
Seeing this, other members of the Zhang family rushed forward and tried to pull the fat girl away from Zhang San.
However, despite the large number of people in the Zhang family, they were still unable to succeed in facing the huge body of the fat girl.
At this time, the old lady of the Zhang family cursed: "Fatty, this is your husband, you want to murder your husband, damn it, I'll let Saner divorce you later!" Her voice was sharp and piercing, full of anger and dissatisfaction.
Hearing this, the fat girl stopped what she was doing, turned her head to look at the old lady of the Zhang family, a trace of disdain flashed in her eyes, and said: "Stop it, who's afraid of who? I've been married into your Zhang family for two years, and I haven't had a full meal. I'm exhausted every day. If you hadn't let the matchmaker deceive me two years ago, who would want to marry into your Zhang family."
"You...San'er, quickly pull this fat woman away." The old lady of the Zhang family was very anxious when she saw her son rolling his eyes because of the fat girl.
The others were watching the show from the sidelines, and when the fight was almost over, Zhang San's wife, Fatty, clapped her hands and stood up, "Miss, I am a country woman, I don't know any skills, I just have a lot of strength. The mistake was made by Zhang San, and now the Zhang family wants to divorce me, so I am no longer their wife. Please, Miss, give Fatty a way out."
Her tone was firm and resolute, as if she was ready to face all the consequences. However, deep in her heart, she hid endless grievances and helplessness.
She knew that as a rural woman, she had no skills to make a living, but she also didn't want to continue to endure the bullying and oppression of the Zhang family.
