When Mrs. Cao saw that Li Tieniu, her most beloved grandson, Li Shiniu, remained silent, she immediately became alert and said with raised eyes:

"Wow Tie Niu! I'm not saying anything bad to you, we are a family, how can you be so ungrateful?

This couple can even deceive us about the medicinal materials, so they might even deny you your wages. Don't you think of using your brain?

You and your father are too honest and can't tell the difference between good and bad people. How can you help them speak up?"

She just didn't like the eldest brother's family. After earning money, she became too powerful and not only did she not hand it all over to the government, but also secretly embezzled some of it.

Unlike the second brother’s family, they are obedient and sweet-spoken and never make her angry.

"I can tell good from bad!" Li Tieniu retorted bluntly, then turned to look at Chen An and Cheng Yue, and said with shame and anger: "Brother Chen An, I trust your character! It's just that after such a mess, I have no face to continue working here..."

Cheng Yue raised her hand to interrupt, "We'll talk about this later, you guys go to work first!"

She was not stupid and could see what Li Shiniu and Mrs. Cao were planning. She would not implicate Li Tieniu because of this matter.

Seeing that Cheng Yue and Chen An had no expression on their faces, Li Tieniu had no choice but to nod and nervously followed everyone to the new house.

We have to solve the problem of medicinal materials first, and then deal with him later!

Grandma Sun twisted her mouth and snorted, "Let's not talk about this. Then you two should talk about how to compensate everyone!"

Before Cheng Yue could say anything, Aunt Li stepped forward, pointed at Grandma Sun's nose and started to curse:

"Compensate your grandmother with your legs! Grandma Sun, you are such a disgrace. If you think the herbs can't be sold for money, you can just not pick them. Why did you knock down the unripe wolfberries?

You are such a shameless old man, you have done nothing but immoral things! How dare you ask for compensation? If you want to compensate, you should give us back the wolfberries!"

Cheng Yue and Chen An looked at each other. If she didn't want to pick the wolfberries, she would destroy them. This was a serious matter. Even the head of the village and the villagers would not forgive her. This person was really stupid...

Granny Sun's eyes were evasive, but she was still stubborn, "Bullshit! Which eye of yours saw that it was me who did it?"

"You old beast who harms others without benefiting yourself, do you think we are blind? You came here to make trouble yesterday, and you showed off to Shuanzi before you got any benefit. Did you go up the mountain near dusk?

Xiaobai and the others are on the mountain, don't try to argue! A group of children saw it!"

Xiaobai and his friends did not come up to do carpentry work yesterday. They all went up the mountain to collect medicinal herbs. They happened to see Grandma Sun hitting wolfberries with a stick.

However, they were a group of children and they were in the mountains, so they didn't dare to say anything at the moment, for fear that Grandma Sun would go crazy and hurt them, so they had to run back home to tell the adults.

The head of the village found out that night, but it was already late, and Cheng Yue and the others had not returned home yet. He also knew that Grandma Sun and the others would definitely come to cause trouble again, so he thought about solving the problem together.

Grandma Sun stammered in retort, "I didn't! How can a bunch of dead boys say anything true? Everyone knows that you are learning carpentry from Chen An, and we can't afford to offend him. No wonder you are speaking for them!"

"It's you! We saw it with our own eyes! You are an elder, but you don't have the dignity of a kid like us!"

"You stinky brat! Who taught you to talk to your elders like that? I'll smash your mouth!"

Mrs. Sun didn't mind what Aunt Li said, but being scolded by several children was embarrassing, so she raised her arm to greet them.

"Stop!" The head of the village shouted with a gloomy face. Granny Sun didn't dare to move. She then awkwardly withdrew her arm raised in the air and said with a wry smile: "Head of the village, I..."

The village head frowned impatiently, "Shut up! You are not allowed to go up the mountain again. You are not allowed to take any grass or trees from the mountain!"

He was too lazy to talk to her about compensation or not. There was no need to say too much to this kind of unreasonable and unreasonable evil woman who was harming everyone's interests, so as to avoid her nagging endlessly!

He had said in front of everyone before that anyone who damaged the medicinal materials would not be allowed to go up the mountain again. Granny Sun only knew how to make mistakes!

In that case, then don’t go up the mountain!

Grandma Sun shuddered, "Li Zheng, how can this be possible? If we don't go up the mountain, where will we get firewood? How can we cook without firewood?"

The village head glanced at her and said, "You have so many ideas. There are plenty of ways to do it."

"You didn't consider your firewood when you damaged the wolfberries, but now you're not allowed to go up the mountain and you're thinking about firewood?"

"You deserve it! People like you shouldn't be allowed to go up the mountain. Who knows what immoral things you'll do!"

"At that time, you were the most enthusiastic about selling medicinal herbs for money. Now that you think you can't make money, you're picking all the wolfberries on the mountain? What the hell!"

Grandma Sun wanted to cry but had no tears. "Village head, you are biased towards them! And you are also blind!

They were clearly the ones who deceived people. I didn’t want anyone to be deceived, so I eliminated the wolfberries. I was also doing this for everyone’s good!”

The headman closed his eyes in anger and wished he could pinch her philtrum. If it weren't for his status as headman, he would have really wanted to knock open Mrs. Sun's head with a stone to see if there was manure inside!

"What did they lie to us about? What did we lose? What did you lose? They lied all the time!

When it came to making money from selling medicinal herbs, you were the most enthusiastic and rushed in thinking it was a good thing. But now you feel you can’t make any money, so you accuse others of cheating you?

You're never satisfied with taking advantage! Do you think it's not a scam if all the good things happen to you? You really think others owe you something!"

Mrs. Sun opened her mouth but could not utter a word. Mrs. Cao and the others were also speechless. It was unknown what benefit the head of the village had gained by being so biased towards Cheng Yue!

Feng felt relieved for the head of the village and glared at Mrs. Sun hatefully, saying what a piece of shit!

Seeing that everyone was silent, Cheng Yue asked, "Do you still want compensation?"

The village head and others were puzzled. The matter had already passed, so why did Cheng Yue take the initiative to talk about compensation?

Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Cao's eyes lit up, "Why not?"

Cheng Yue asked the villagers who came up with Grandma Sun, "What about you?"

Everyone looked at each other and said, "We don't want compensation, but we won't pick the herbs for now."

It's all clear, what qualifications do they have to ask for compensation? Cheng Yue doesn't owe them anything.

Besides, they didn't come here to ask for compensation, they just wanted a definite answer. If Cheng Yue didn't tell them, then they would just not collect the items!

Can't they just continue picking the fruits after the villagers actually make money from selling them?

Cheng Yue sneered secretly, as if she didn't know what they were planning, and the abacus beads fell on her face.

"Since you don't believe me, there is really no need to collect herbs anymore. Even if you collect herbs in the future, I will never help you sell them! Not only selling herbs, I won't help you with anything else in the future!"

Then he said, "Xiaotong, remember these people."

Everyone was dumbfounded. They just didn't want to pick herbs for the time being, but they didn't say they wouldn't pick them in the future. What else could happen? What good things could come out of this?

Does Cheng Yue mean that she will never talk to them again? No more contact with them?

The village head nodded barely audibly. He knew what Cheng Yue meant. This was the way it should be!

It's useless to help a fence-sitter with no brains!
