Ji Qingyao looked at the people brought by the village chief. Two of the men were the village chief's eldest son and second son. She had never seen the remaining three men, and they should be villagers from Xiaoxi Village.
Ji Qingyao solved the three rabbits and gave one to each of them, saying that this was a meeting gift and that they were troubled by the land reclamation matter. Then he handed the remaining three rabbits and two hares to the village chief and said to the village chief that this was a thank you. Li, thank him for helping to find someone to open up wasteland.
Several men didn't know whether they should take what Ji Qingyao gave them. Finally, the village chief spoke, saying that they could accept the prey today, but if they wanted to eat it later, they would have to pay for it. Although the prey came from the mountains of Xiaoxi Village, it was This girl risked her life and hunted her back. She was given to them out of love, not out of duty.
The few who had benefited quickly nodded and said that they were not ungrateful people, and they also said that they would help Ji Qingyao level the ground for ease of use.
When Village Chief Pei left, he shook the prey in his hand and looked at Ji Qingyao with a smile: "Qingyao girl, if you want to thank me, I won't say anything. If you have anything to do, just tell your two brothers."
After hearing the village chief's words, several men worked more attentively and harder.
Although the two sons of the Pei family did not get rabbits individually, Ji Qingyao did this to show the others that she had a good relationship with the village chief's family and that the family did not need to be so careful.
Anyway, everyone who should understand understands, and those who are unclear can only make various calculations. For example, Li Xiulian stood in the courtyard early in the morning and cursed Ji Qingyao for being heartless and not sending her meat for two days.
Li Xiulian's two grandsons are both studying in the town. They come back only one day every seven days and were sent to the academy just the day before yesterday. Ji Qingyao thought that Li Xiulian couldn't eat much meat alone at home, so it would be a pity if she couldn't finish it and spoil it if she gave it too much. Unexpectedly, Li Xiulian kept scolding her at home.
If Ji Qingyao knew that she just didn't want to waste food and didn't send meat, she would be cursed by Li Xiulian. She would rather feed the food to the dogs than send it to Pei Linyun's house.
After Ji Qingyao explained the matter of reclaiming wasteland, she returned directly to the cave. She had to cut potatoes into pieces and raise seedlings in advance. Thinking of Pei Ningyuan, she decided to send some potatoes to the village chief's house like sweet potatoes. If the village chief was willing, she wanted to send some potatoes from the village to the village chief's house. Long began to bring the people of Xiaoxi Village to these two species.
She believes that as soon as the villagers see the harvest in a few months, they will rush to ask for such planting. Now she needs the village chief and his family to be the leaders.
But before Ji Qingyao arrived at the village chief's house, the village bell rang. Ji Qingyao knew that every village had such a bell, and usually the village bell would ring when something important happened.
She didn't have to go there to know that it was probably about the refugees and the construction of a wall in the village.
When Ji Qingyao went down to the foot of the mountain, there were only two or three villagers left walking towards the big willow tree in the village.
Seeing Ji Qingyao coming down the mountain, some villagers wanted to come up and say hello to her. Thinking of her carrying the big insect down the mountain and disemboweling her, fear finally got the better of her.
Ji Qingyao had expected such a result. She smiled at a few people and followed the crowd towards the village.
Pei Ning was far from unnecessary nonsense. He told the villagers what he saw in the county and the town. He also told the villagers about the villages that had been robbed by the victims. Finally, he told the villagers that they would report the disaster to the village. , firstly, from today onwards the whole village will participate in the construction of the wall, and secondly, a patrol team will be organized. From now on, villagers must register for entry and exit.
Ji Qingyao originally expected to hear doubts from the villagers, but unexpectedly the villagers said that everything was up to the village chief's arrangement.
Although Ji Qingyao has not participated in villagers' meetings in other villages, she has seen Dahe Village. Every time it involves big or small matters in the village, everyone always quarrels for a long time. It is not only women who gossip, but men too. , the quarrel is nothing more than the Zhang family getting more benefits and the Li family getting less, or else no one is willing to do unprofitable things.
Ji Qingyao didn't expect that everything would go so smoothly. He even said that a patrol team would be formed and the men automatically signed up without asking if they would be paid or anything.
Although she had doubts in her heart, she did not ask them in front of everyone. After all, she had only been here for a few days. In a sense, she was still a foreigner in Xiaoxi Village.
When the crowd dispersed, she saw Li Xiulian among the villagers, but the other person looked at her with a look of displeasure. Ji Qingyao thought for a while and thought about it. She didn't do anything to offend the other person. Why did Li Jilian look at her like she was a betrayed person? Same.
Ji Qingyao felt a chill at this realization.
Li Xiulian was followed by several women, who were talking about something unknown. Before leaving, Li Xiulian kept her eyes on the basket behind Ji Qingyao.
