The General’s Little Peasant Wife

Chapter 58: Locusts passing through

Views:

The elders of Yang Zhu's uncle generation looked very ugly when they saw Ning Mengyao's home that was like locusts passing through.

They have stayed in Baishan Village for so many years, and there has never been a thief in the village. Now there is a thief, and he even stole an orphan girl. This time, Ning Mengyao rented out the land, which made the village The Chinese were very grateful.

The rent she asked for was very small. Even if she didn't rent out dozens of acres of land, even if she hired long-term workers, it would be much better than charging 20% to 30% of the rent.

But now? It turned out that the people in the village were being bullied, which was a slap in their face.

"Yang Zhu's matter must be investigated thoroughly, and he will be severely punished if he finds a favor." The most senior person in the group slammed the table angrily and said fiercely.

"Uncle, I will take care of this matter." Yang Zhu's face was also very ugly. Although some people in his village said they had bad personalities, they had never done such sneaky things.

If this spreads out, will the girls and boys in the village still want to get wives or get married? Do the people in their village still want to raise their heads in front of others? Thinking about Yang Zhu, I felt so hateful.

"Let's call the whole village. This matter must be made clear." Yang Zhu said fiercely while looking at the people beside him.

"Walk."

Ning Mengyao had no choice but to follow them to the village and watch them call the villagers back from the fields one by one. This made everyone very strange. This was the time of harvest. What could be more important than this

After everyone was almost there, Yang Zhu looked at everyone and said coldly: "I know you are wondering why I asked you to come here, but there is something I have to say."

Everyone looked at each other, wondering why the old people were so angry.

"Village Chief, what happened?"

"Yeah, why are these uncles so angry?"

"Since the establishment of our Baishan Village, although there have been conflicts between neighbors, there have been no major incidents. But today, theft was discovered in the village." Yang Zhu stopped after speaking.

When everyone heard it, they immediately exploded.

What? There is a thief in their village? What's going on.

Ning Mengyao stood on the side and looked at the people in the crowd carefully, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised. One person's performance really surprised her.

"Okay, everyone, be quiet. Today, when Mengyao came back from the mountain, she found that the lock of her house had been picked, and two or three rooms had been turned into a mess. All the quilts and mattresses were on the floor, and boxes and other items were also messed up. , not to mention, the rice, flour, oil and pickled game she put in the kitchen are all missing."

After Yang Zhu finished speaking, everyone was stunned. What does it mean that the room was turned into a mess? It means that the person was looking for money or something, and probably because he couldn't find it, he took away the food.

"We went to see Mengyao's nice house before, but it was as if locusts were passing through. She hasn't raised any animals yet. If she did, would they all be taken away?" What are locusts? Locusts are the most hated by everyone, because there is nothing left wherever they pass. This is probably the best way to describe the current situation of Ning Mengyao's family.

"Yes, this is not a small matter for one person. If this spreads out, will the people in our village be able to hold their heads high? Do the girls and boys in our village want to get married?"

"Not only that, if this person forms a habit, now it is Mengyao girl's family, and from now on it will be our own."

Several senior uncles expressed their thoughts one by one. Everyone who had some things that had nothing to do with them suddenly became alert. Yes, they are from the same village. This time it was okay. If they develop a habit, How to deal with it if you steal it into their own home

Thinking about this, everyone suddenly became uneasy. Who doesn't have a girl in his family? Doesn't this bring discredit to their village
