Crossing the farm gate, the whole family reunites in the disaster year
Chapter 191 Don't blame me for being merciless
Watching the couple leave cursing at each other, the village head finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at everyone whose faces became increasingly gloomy.
"No matter what you think, remember what I'm going to say next." The usually gentle headman said with anger, "Ever since Jingwen's mother came to our village, they have done so many good things for the village. You all know in your hearts that they can't live without them."
"Although the county has given us rewards, we are the ones who have benefited the most. I don't care what others do, but if I hear anyone slandering Jing Wen Niang behind her back, no matter who it is, don't blame me, an old man, for being merciless."
The village head glanced at the villagers present.
"No, no, we all remember Jingwen's mother's kindness." Someone immediately responded.
"That's right, if anyone says anything bad about Jingwen's mother, I will be the first to spit on him." A woman's voice was firm and decisive.
Her daughter-in-law has been working with Jingwen's mother for the past two days, and she took some copper coins home last night. Just for this reason, whatever Jingwen's mother does is right!
"Hmph." Li Zheng's expression barely brightened, and he changed the subject. "As for the locusts, just listen to Lao He. The food we have can only last for a few days, so we should not take any risks and just get through the winter peacefully."
The head of the village meant that these locusts should not be eaten. The villagers who were originally hesitant decided to listen to the head of the village and no longer thought about eating the locusts.
"Could it be that the cages of locusts that Jingwen's mother brought took effect, causing so many locusts to die?" someone murmured after realizing it belatedly.
"Or maybe he died of overeating?" The village head rolled his eyes at him and stepped on a dead locust.
"It's true!" A yellow pulp burst out of the locust's stomach. Someone picked up a branch, dug around a few times, and exclaimed in surprise, "It's empty. It hasn't eaten any food."
Behind them was a wheat field. After careful observation for a while, everyone found that although there were many locusts flying in the air, only a few landed on the crops.
"It's just as Jingwen's mother said before..." Looking at the locusts that he had hated for half his life, a middle-aged man couldn't help but choked up.
The locusts, which once left no grass behind wherever they went, can now avoid eating crops. This is even more amazing than the magic tricks at the New Year temple fair.
"Quick, pinch me, am I dreaming?"
......
The villagers were so excited that they danced with joy, and Lin also laughed from the bottom of her heart.
"Thanks to Jingwen Niang, saving the crops is saving our lives."
An old woman walked up to Lin and was about to kneel down tremblingly. Lin quickly supported her and stopped her.
"What are you doing?" the village head stepped forward quickly. "You're already so old. If you kowtow, won't that shorten Jingwen's mother's life?"
Upon hearing this, the old woman stood up straight and said, "Oh, I'm getting old and confused. I'm just happy in my heart."
Everyone couldn't help laughing. They had originally wanted to kowtow to Lin, but the interruption ruined the atmosphere.
Lin smiled and said, "The fact that this method can be implemented and has such an effect is the result of the efforts of our entire village. If we are to talk about credit, it is the credit of Xiahe Village as a whole."
A few days ago, at the command of Li Zheng, the entire Xiahe Village was mobilized.
"All the locusts caught by the children in the past few days were sent to the village headman's house."
"I made two bamboo cages."
"I also..."
Hearing Lin's words, everyone present felt proud.
The village head replied quietly, "I'm fine, I just didn't sleep well for a few days because of the locusts..."
