Farming and reading family

Chapter 91 It’s not too much

Zheng Fengan looked at Chen Ke. He didn't want Chen Ke to be too harsh on these people. It was not a good thing to force people into a corner at this time.

"Forget about others, but not the Wang family. Uncle Zheng forgot that he just falsely accused my man of causing his son's death." Lei was angry.

Wang Chunxi shrank his neck. Who would have thought that the Chen family, who had moved to the cave in the old village because they couldn't make a living, would actually survive because of this.

Zheng Fengan felt helpless when he thought about what Wang Chunxi had done before.

Chen Ke bowed respectfully and said, "Now that they have come to our Chen family like this, if they are not punished at all, it would be unfair to the kind villagers. How about this, their food rations are reduced by half."

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and hurriedly apologized to Chen Ke, saying that they were bewitched by Wang Chunxi.

Zheng Fengan nodded: "That's great."

Wang Chunxi was unwilling: "And Chen Fancai's family, I was deceived by him."

Since he has reduced his food intake by half, Chen Fancai's family won't have an easy time either.

Zheng Fengan looked at Chen Ke again. Although Chen Fancai and the Chen family had a big fight, they all had the surname Chen after all.

Chen Fansheng came out with a cane at some point.

He had a lot of trouble yesterday and his legs were in great pain, so he didn't come out.

"We won't provide food for Chen Fancai's family. He has a job and his two daughters are married in the city, so he doesn't need it." Chen Fansheng said sarcastically.

Zheng Fengan nodded helplessly. It seemed that after what happened last time, the hatred between the two brothers was too deep.

Chen Fancai still wanted to trick Chen Fansheng's family at this time, so it was normal for Chen Fansheng to be angry.

"Although we have lost our friendship, we can still do business. His family is willing to pay for it, and we are also willing to sell it." Chen Ke said gently.

Although it was harsh, it also gave Chen Fancai's family a way out.

Zheng Fengan also knew that Chen Ke was willing to sell things to Chen Fancai's family at this time because he was thinking of their friendship.

Chen Fansheng didn't stop his son when he heard him say that. Although he was angry, he couldn't really let Chen Fancai's family starve to death. But if he gave it to him for free, he would still feel unhappy.

As for what would happen next, Zheng Fengan took Chen Qing with him to discuss it with the villagers.

After all, rebuilding after a flood is not an easy task.

Gao E listened to the general situation in the cave. She felt that the current situation was good. After all, the flood had just begun and people had not yet started to starve. It was still reasonable.

After finishing his business outside, Chen Ke went into the cave to see Gao E: "It seems that big brother and Uncle Zheng have reached an agreement very well."

"Everyone has a family to support. Except for those with extremely evil natures, everyone wants to live well as long as there is a way to survive." Gao E said with a smile.

Chen Ke thought about it and nodded: "Then sell it to Xiao..." He paused here and said, "How much do you want for the food from Chen Baolai's family?"

"Let my third sister-in-law go. The price should be no less than ten times the market price." Gao E said directly.

Chen Ke hesitated for a moment and then nodded.

"Do you think this is too much?" Gao E saw Chen Ke hesitate.

"Given the way their family behaves, it's not excessive for my wife to do this." Chen Ke said this, but he still felt that it was a bit too much.

"You have to let everyone know that food is very precious nowadays," Gao E reminded.

Chen Ke shuddered and nodded hurriedly.

In this regard, even if he had read the theories of strategy, he would not be as good as his wife.

The Chen family prepared breakfast, but there were not enough bowls, so the villagers had to take turns eating.

Those who only got half of the food stared at Wang Chunxi's family angrily.

Not only did Wang Chunxi's family only get half, but Wang Jinfu also didn't get any, so the old couple had to give him a few pieces equally.

Chen Fancai's family had nothing at all, so the Song family immediately quit.

"They are all from Baotou Village, why is there no one in our family?" Song asked pitifully.

"You'll have to ask your husband about that," Zheng Yicheng mocked. "How did your family trick Mr. Chen in the first place? What did you say when he wanted to buy back the house?"

"Don't talk about all this. Your man deceived others to go to Chen Ke's house to steal food. How do you have the nerve to come and eat Chen Ke's food now?" Zheng Yicheng really couldn't stand it.

He felt that Chen Ke had become stupid from reading too much, and he didn't even bother with such a family, but just refused to give them food.

"That's right." Someone on the side echoed, "You think Chen Xiucai is a sucker, you can bully him however you want."

"I would say that even God can't stand this."

……

"What are you so proud of?" Song grumbled softly, "It wasn't our family that was washed away by the flood."

"But Chen Ke won't give your family any food." Zheng Yicheng spread his hands. "But Mr. Chen is kind and said you can go buy some if you want."

Song's eyes were filled with resentment: "He will definitely ask for a huge sum of money."

"If they are willing to ask for a high price, you should be thankful. If they don't ask for a high price, you should be anxious." Zheng Yicheng sneered.

"It's, it's..."

"Don't you see what time it is? You can't even buy anything with money."

"If you ask me, Mr. Chen is really easy to talk to."

……

Now all the villagers in Baotou Village stood on the side of the Chen family. Song was disappointed and left with her head down and cursing softly.

Chen Bao came to see his mother, who had returned empty-handed. "Where's the food?"

"That bastard Chen Ke not only doesn't share any food with our family, but also makes us spend money to buy it. I'm going to hang myself with my belt at his doorstep so that everyone can see how a nephew forced his aunt to death." Song cursed.

Chen Fan was puzzled. No matter what happened between him and his elder brother in the past, his elder brother would never stand by and watch him die. What happened this time?

When Gao sold the house, his eldest brother didn't react much.

"Boss, please say something. Our Baolai can't go hungry." Song looked at Chen Fan and said nothing.

Chen Baolai pretended to be pitiful: "It's okay if my son doesn't want to eat, as long as my parents can eat it. If not, I will go and ask my uncle for help. My uncle will not stand by and watch me die."

"After all, there is a layer between you and him." Chen Fancai didn't believe it. Chen Fansheng really didn't care about his life or death.

After thinking for a while, he got up and went to Chen Ke's house.

"Hey, are you going to beg for food?" Someone mocked Chen Fancai when they saw him walking towards Chen Ke's house.

Chen Fancai walked with a limp, glanced at the man and continued walking.

Zheng Fengan came over after hearing the voice and said, "Everyone in the village knows that you, Chen Fancai, are very wealthy. It's a great favor that Mr. Chen is willing to sell food to your family. You better not be ungrateful."

Chen Fancai felt that Zheng Fengan was taking this opportunity to take revenge, but he couldn't say it.

Now everyone in the village knows that before the Yutou Dam burst, the village head asked him to patrol the dike, but he didn't go, and they put the blame on him.

Chen Fancai saw that the door of Chen Ke's house was closed and stood at the door and shouted: "Brother, we grew up together. We are blood relatives. What kind of grudge can we have to ignore each other's life and death..."

When the Chen family heard Chen Fancai shouting at the door, they looked at each other and then looked towards the third cave.

"I'll go chase him away." Chen Jie said as he was about to go out.

Chen Ke paused, "He's calling us dad. If you go out like this, he'll give you something to talk about."
