I'm going to become rich after being dressed as a five-year-old woman
Chapter 60: Settlement of Accounts after Autumn
Li Yuzhu's house was diagonally opposite, and a noisy noise was heard from there. Zhao Qiqi had guessed that such a thing would happen, so he hurriedly took his sons to Li Yuzhu's house.
Quite a few people have gathered around. Now that they have finished harvesting the rice and are taking a breath, it is time to settle the accounts in the autumn.
"Aunt Zhang, you can't just pretend nothing happened, right?"
"That's right. His man did something so evil. Why should we just ignore it?"
"As long as Aunt Zhang is still here, Zhang Huatou will come back soon."
"Zhang Huatou is gone, but his land is still there. This land belongs to Zhang Huatou, so naturally he should be compensated to us."
After yesterday's life-and-death ordeal, the villagers were filled with resentment. It was understandable that they wanted to vent, and it was reasonable for them to be angry. However, they should know that every grievance has its perpetrator, and they should not just find someone to vent their anger on.
When the villagers mentioned those fields, they wanted to compensate for their losses, and secondly, seeing that Li Yuzhu had no husband and no children, they wanted to wipe out the entire family.
"Every grievance has its perpetrator and every debt has its creditor. If you want to seek justice and collect the debt, why don't you go find Zhang Huatou instead of making things difficult for Li Yuzhu?"
Most people were hearing this name for the first time and felt a little unfamiliar with it, but after realizing it, they realized it was Aunt Zhang.
The people in the village were somewhat grateful to Zhao Qiqi, but it was not easy for them to quarrel with her openly.
Some stubborn people turned their heads away and said, "But doesn't Zhang Huatou own that land? Zhang Huatou made us lose so much, and we only want this little bit. It's not too much, right?" He pointed at the scorched land. They felt that it was the compensation they deserved, and they were unwilling to give it up.
"Yes, and besides, Li Yuzhu alone can't eat so much food."
Some people followed suit, but they were not just following the trend. Everyone seemed objective, but in fact they were just speaking for their own interests.
Another person said, "Think about it, Li Yuzhu is all alone and helpless, and you want to take her land. How can she live?" He was a bachelor in the village and usually liked to take advantage of others.
Zhao Qiqi ignored him. One could tell what the man was thinking at a glance.
"Since you said that the field belonged to Zhang Huatou and had nothing to do with Li Yuzhu, then doesn't that mean that the evil done by Zhang Huatou has nothing to do with Li Yuzhu?"
Zhao Qiqi may not be objective, but she wants Li Yuzhu not to be burdened by Zhang Huatou. She is alone and needs more confidence.
Everyone looked at each other, and many nodded and said yes.
"Since what Zhang Huatou did has nothing to do with Li Yuzhu, then you are not allowed to come and cause trouble for Yuzhu again in the future, how about that?"
Someone took the lead and agreed. The food from these three acres of land was not much for each person, but at least it was something, right? At this time, more food was a guarantee of life.
"Then you can distribute the food among us now."
Zhao Qiqi snorted coldly. How could such a good thing happen? The rice had been harvested and was already drying in the yard.
"The land belongs to Zhang, a slippery man. We should go to the head of the village to find out whether to divide it or not and how to divide it. We will do as the head of the village says."
Are you kidding? Who the field belongs to and who it belongs to is certainly not something that can be said verbally. Now Zhao Qiqi's goal is to stop them from making trouble here. As for how they go to the head of the village to make trouble and how the head of the village handles it, that is his business. After all, the head of the village has not been a clerk for so many years for nothing.
Li Yuzhu's legs went weak and she fell to the ground. Zhao Qiqi helped her inside and asked the children to help her chop firewood and fetch water. There was also a family living in her house, but they just stayed in the house and didn't come out to help her. Li Yuzhu felt a little disappointed.
Zhao Qiqi handed her a glass of water, but she never expected to hear footsteps of a group of people coming from outside.
Could it be that they asked the village head to come over?
Zhao Qiqi was a little worried about Li Yuzhu's current condition. She was indeed a little frightened.
"Don't worry, I'll go out and take a look first."
Li Yuzhu looked at her with some attachment. She had just been thinking whether she should go to the head of the village and divorce Zhang Huatou, treat him as if he were dead, and then find another man to marry. This way she would have someone to rely on. Those people who surrounded her outside today were just taking advantage of the fact that there was no man in her family.
But now, as she watched Zhao Qiqi building a small world for her, she realized that as long as she learned from her and followed in the footsteps of such a person, she could also make a living on her own.
When Zhao Qiqi came outside, the first thing she saw was the village head walking towards her.
She saw a man in official uniform coming closer. She was not from here and did not know who this official was. He had been active in this village for a long time and she had no idea who he was.
"Mrs. Dashuan, come here for a moment."
Zhao Qiqi stepped forward. The man was wearing an official robe and a round gauze hat on his head. His shoes were also relatively clean. He must have come by carriage or on horseback.
"Mr. County Magistrate, this is what I told you, Zhao Qiqi, it was thanks to her and another woman who disregarded their own safety and brought everyone to the mountain, thus saving everyone." At this time, it was not appropriate to mention Li Yuzhu, after all, it was her identity as Zhang Huatou's wife that implicated her.
