The fat wife is rebellious: she was spoiled by the group on the way to escape famine
Chapter 180 Severe Punishment
There was constant noise all around, and everyone's words were like rapid raindrops hitting his heart, forcing him to press his temples with his hands, trying to calm the unbearable pressure.
"Everyone, be quiet. Now we need to deal with the Song family's affairs. We can deal with other issues one by one!"
Following the village chief's stern and decisive command, the noisy crowd gradually calmed down. Although dissatisfaction still spread among them, at least the scene seemed to have a little order.
The villagers' voices became much quieter, but their eyes revealed an even more obvious sense of unease.
Immediately afterwards, this dissatisfaction turned into hostility towards Li Yue.
People began to whisper to each other, discussing how to punish this woman who made them feel threatened.
"We must teach her a lesson!"
"Drag her out and parade her through the streets!"
These voices emerged one after another like waves, and each suggestion was more harsh and cruel than the previous one.
Their goal is obviously to let everyone living in Xiushui'an witness the price of offending the family leader - this collective memory will become the best means to deter others.
Jiang Jinhe had anticipated such a strong reaction from everyone and was not frightened or panicked.
On the contrary, she appeared calm, even composed.
After slowly scanning the people in the venue, his gaze finally fell on his mother, Aunt Song, and his father, Song Dadi. At that moment, his eyes seemed as if he had made some important decision.
"Mom, Dad, I don't have any other requests. Just separate my second brother's family."
Her voice was neither high nor low, but loud enough for everyone to hear clearly.
As soon as the words fell, almost everyone present was stunned.
"Separate?"
The village chief also seemed a little surprised. He originally thought that the matter would not be resolved so easily!
However, Jiang Jinhe just nodded slightly to confirm, and his attitude was very firm.
"Yes, it's that simple. Everyone knows that our Song family made some money from building a kang a while ago, and ever since we got this money, Li Yue has always wanted a share."
Jiang Jinhe calmly told the truth, with a hint of helplessness in her words, but also mixed with some wisdom and strategy.
When talking about silver, the eyes of everyone present lit up instantly. Their eager expressions were like wolves seeing delicious prey in the dark night, which made people feel shocked and puzzled.
Although she despised such greed in her heart, Jiang Jinhe did not show it; on the contrary, she maintained a humble and friendly attitude in front of everyone.
"But in order to maintain the harmony in the family, I have not agreed to distribute the money, and it is now safely in my custody."
Her words were so clear and powerful that it was hard to doubt their sincerity.
"But I didn't expect that last night, Li Yue actually colluded with some unidentified people to try to steal the wealth we had worked so hard to accumulate."
At this point, a flash of anger appeared in Jiang Jinhe's eyes.
"Besides that, you should also know that I'm currently working on developing a brand new dried tofu product. Yesterday, I took it to the county for a trial sale and it received a very positive response, even earning me a fair bit of cash."
She raised her voice slightly so everyone in the audience could hear the important part she was about to say. "Originally, I planned to cooperate with the Fang Family Restaurant in the county to sell this specialty food. I also wanted to encourage other families in the village to join this industry chain, because my own strength alone is simply not enough to meet the huge market demand!"
When he said this, Jiang Jinhe deliberately paused, giving everyone enough space to digest this information.
Although she looked very calm on the surface, in fact this brief pause not only whetted everyone's appetite, but also made everyone feel more nervous and uneasy.
"Lao San Madam, please tell me when you will take us to make money together? We are all waiting impatiently."
"That's right. Last time I built a kang, I only earned 10 taels of silver. This time, you can take me with you so that I can earn more money! I also want to improve our family's life."
"Teach me, I'm a fast learner and I won't hold you back!"
The village chief was also very anxious.
If he could lead Xiafang Village to become a wealthy village in Xiushui'an area, he would be promoted to mayor, which is the opportunity he has always dreamed of.
As the village chief, he was knowledgeable after all, and had already sensed some bad signs from Jiang Jinhe's words.
"Lao San Madam, please tell me quickly, what happened?"
Jiang Jinhe pretended to wipe the tears from her eyes before she spoke in a trembling voice, "I didn't expect Li Yue to be so cruel. She brought a group of people to cause trouble, smashed our shed, and destroyed all the tools for making dried tofu."
"They snatched away all the dried tofu we worked so hard to make yesterday!"
Jiang Jinhe's tone was filled with helplessness and regret. "We were originally going to sell those dried tofu to the Fang Family Restaurant, but now not only have we failed to sell them, but even the cooperation is in jeopardy. I had originally planned to help everyone make money, so I have to put it on hold for now. It's so frustrating!"
When the villagers heard that they could no longer make money, they became extremely angry. Some of them even rushed up and punched and kicked Li Yue, who had fainted on the ground, without any mercy at all.
If the village chief had not been quick to stop everyone, the situation would have turned into a bloody incident, and people might have lost their lives.
But even so, the villagers' anger could not be completely calmed down, and they unanimously asked the village chief to deal with the matter.
"Village Chief, this woman clearly came from Shangyue Village. Why not just send her back?"
"Village Chief, we must not let her continue to bring disaster to our village below, otherwise we will have no way to survive!"
"Village chief, look at her, she's done so many bad things, making it impossible for anyone to make money. She must be severely punished!"
Li Congyi frowned and thought for a long time, then raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.
"Fellow villagers, what you said makes sense, but ultimately this is an internal matter of the Song family. How to resolve it still depends on the Song family's opinion. You have no say."
After his persuasion, the angry villagers calmed down a little and began to persuade the Song family.
Several men surrounded Song Mucheng and expressed their opinions: "A woman with such bad behavior should be divorced immediately. Keeping her at home is simply raising a big trouble!"
The women rushed forward and surrounded Aunt Song, vying to persuade her.
They talked at once, their tone filled with dissatisfaction and anxiety: "What's the point of having such a grown-up daughter-in-law who can't even handle the household affairs?
