I asked you to dig wild vegetables to pay off your debt, not go up the mountain to pick up money!

Song Tieniu originally thought it was just a little quarrel between women, and felt that his wife's crazy behavior was quite embarrassing, but what did the headman just say?

"Uncle Erhe, we can't move. My family just separated two years ago, and we just renovated the house last fall. We've spent all the money. If we move out of Banyue Village, we really can't survive."

He knelt before Song Erhe, tears streaming down his face. Whether it was admitting his fault or divorcing this troublemaker, he absolutely could not be driven out of Half Moon Village.

Thinking of this, he kicked Wen Cui'er in the chest with all his strength. Not feeling satisfied, he pulled her hair and was about to hit her.

But he was stopped by the village elders.

"Tie Niu, why didn't you hit your wife when she started throwing a tantrum?

It's simply that in your heart, you feel that what Wen said makes sense, and also that if your wife wins, she'll get a lot of benefits."

"We are old, but not blind. We can still understand your little thoughts."

"You two don't think about living a good life all day long, but you are arguing with a junior. It's really shameful."

The people who were talking were a generation older than Song Dashan and Song Erhe. Song Anning had to call them great-grandfathers. They were highly respected in the village and their words carried a certain weight.

Such straightforward words made Song Tieniu blush with embarrassment. He felt that Wen Cui'er would not lose to a young girl, so he did not try to stop her.

Wen, who was standing by, didn't care about the pain from being kicked. She felt utterly disappointed when she heard that her family was being driven out of the village.

The times are tough these days. Those who are driven out are worse than refugees. No village will accept them. This is going to drive people to death.

Thinking of the tragic situation in the future, I couldn't help crying.

"Uncle Erhe, I kneel down and apologize to you. I beg you elders to forgive me this time. I will never do it again. My children are still young. They will die if they leave the village."

She knelt down and apologized while crying. When she knelt to Song An Ning, Zhang quickly pulled her granddaughter aside.

No matter what, Song Tieniu and his wife are Song Anning's elders. After they kneel down, who knows how much gossip will arise. It's so boring.

Seeing Wen's pitiful appearance, many elderly elders came out to mediate;

"Erhe, please forgive me this time. It won't be too late to kick me out next time I do it again."

"Yes, you watched Tie Niu grow up. You can't write two Songs with one stroke. So calm down and don't take it to heart."

Song Erhe didn't intend to really drive them out at first, but Wen had provoked him, the village head, more than once, and he was afraid that she would not repent if he didn't teach her a lesson.

Having said that, I can't just let it go. After thinking it over again and again, I finally spoke:

"Ms. Wen, you lost the bet with Miss Ning. Do you admit it?"

"I admit it! I surrender! I won't say anything nonsense again. It's my fault for being incompetent and still trying to frame others. Please forgive me, please..."

Now she regrets it very much. Coming to the mountain to dig bamboo shoots was supposed to be a good thing, and she could sell them for a lot of money. How did it turn out like this?

"Okay, the bamboo shoots you just dug belong to Ning, and your land will be dug with Aning. Now that all the elders have pleaded for mercy, I will forgive you this time.

However, this year, you have to pay 20% of your harvest to the village, and the money you get will be used to repair the ancestral hall. Anyone who dares to gossip behind your back and frame others will suffer the same fate.

If you do it again, no matter how much you plead for mercy, you’ll just get out.”

Song Erhe had calculated this 20% of grain. The current tax was 30% of the grain collected from the land, and the rest was a family's annual food rations. If the village collected this 20%, no one would starve to death, but it would not let a family live easily. This was exactly the effect he wanted.

Song Tieniu and his wife nodded quickly, saying they would do anything as long as they were not kicked out.

At first everyone just wanted to watch the fun, but they didn't expect it to turn out like this. Many women who like to pay attention to others lowered their heads and tried to reduce their presence.

There were also many men who whispered to their wives to keep their mouths shut and avoid conflicts with Song An Ning.

After these incidents, they have come to realize that the little girl from the Song family is quite capable. She is a very easy-going girl when no one provokes her. Anyone who dares to bully her family will be in great trouble.

There were also a few smart ones who had gathered around Song An Ning to ask for advice on how to dig bamboo shoots.

How could she do that? She couldn't say that she was able to dig so much thanks to the powerful Tongzi.

Fortunately, while providing scientific knowledge, the system also taught Song Anning many methods to find bamboo shoots.

For example, you need to look for cracks in the ground to grow spring bamboo shoots. Single-branch bamboo shoots are rare, while double-branch bamboo shoots are more common. The bamboo shoots will be on the side where the bamboo basket tilts...

She also hopes that villagers can dig more good bamboo shoots so that every family can become richer and no one family stands out.

"Don't mention it, you really shouldn't mention it. The Song family girl's idea is good. I dug a lot of good bamboo shoots this afternoon."

"Yeah, I don't know who taught her that. We only dug out what was exposed before. Oh, we lost a lot of money."

After finishing the lunch business, Song Tieniu and his wife were too embarrassed to stay there any longer, so they followed the returning group. The person involved, Song Anning, acted as if nothing had happened and continued to work hard digging bamboo shoots in the woods.

She looked at the screen and saw that there were still two species of creatures that would require the system to be upgraded, but she had searched all the plants in the forest and found nothing new.

Just as I was considering whether to go for a walk deeper into the woods, I saw a big white worm wriggling happily on the edge of the bamboo shoot in my hand.

"Xiangxiang, this bamboo shoot worm also counts..."

"Okay, but Xiangxiang is afraid of insects. Woo woo woo, Master, please take it away. Xiangxiang is scared..."

Just kidding, Tongzi, this is not the time for you to embarrass me. Are you afraid? That's not true. Even if you are afraid, you have to accept it!

"Stop talking nonsense and collect it quickly. A worm is also meat. It tastes delicious when fried."

The man and Tongzi argued for several rounds, but in the end, Tongzi was afraid that Song Anning would go crazy and curse, so he could only accept the two bamboo shoot worms reluctantly.

The number has reached ninety-nine, and the system shows that there are no new species in the area near her.

Song Anning thought about it again and again, and now she had it, she felt like she had missed something!

She came with her sickle and cut a thin bamboo and held it in her hand.

"Tongzi, please take it. I'm being very kind by not separating the bamboo leaves from the bamboo, don't you think?"

"..."

The system fell silent again. This master is really good at taking advantage of loopholes. Tongzi is still young and can't beat the master.

......

o (╥﹏╥) o

It wants more animals and plants, why is it so difficult?

Xiangxiang feels wronged, but she doesn't say anything...

"Ding, I recycled seven pounds of bamboo, and the amount was fourteen cents."

"Dangdangdangdang... All level 0 tasks have been completed. Xiangxiang is leveling up, please do not disturb her."

I'm filled with anticipation. What will the first-level system be like? I really want to know...
