Chen Ba overheard the discussion between the two and finally showed a proud smile.
Liang people were superstitious about ghosts and gods.
"Qi Sunzi" didn't lie to him. He created this rumor that "broken the ancestral line" and would definitely bring trouble to that woman!
Chen Ba was originally going to leave, but now he left in no hurry.
He leaned closer to listen to the gossip.
The man could also say, and the more he said it, the more mysterious it became. The old woman in Lijia Village who sprained her foot two days ago was taught to Fang Ke by Wen Jin. Even if Cui Huan couldn't give birth to a child, she was a female student who learned from Fang Ke... Even the old sow in the village boss Li's house had difficulty in giving birth. It was a female student who touched the ancestral line and gave it to Fang Ke!
Chen Ba couldn't help but laugh out loud.
The person who spoke in the cool voice under the tree immediately turned to look at him.
"Why are you laughing? We are talking about our own village..."
"You look unfamiliar, a stranger, right? What are you doing here?"
The two gossips actually picked up stones on the ground and walked towards Chen Ba.
Chen Ba's martial arts value certainly did not take these two idle men seriously.
But he came to see Wen Jin in trouble! He's not here to cause trouble for himself!
What if he beat up these two people and attracted Wen Jin's people, and the woman stopped the gossip before it spread, wouldn't it be a big loss?
Chen Ba waved his hands repeatedly, "I'm not laughing at you! What you said makes sense! It really makes sense! Isn't this female student just able to defeat your Lijia Village!"
"The ancestral vein! It is a blessing given by the ancestors! Can it be moved? Anyone who has a little bit of filial piety cannot move the ancestral vein!"
Chen Ba is tall and strong, and has a loud voice.
Before he finished speaking, several workers looked over.
Immediately, a group of people picked up shovels and hoes and came here.
"What did you say? Who touched the ancestral vein?"
"I'm talking about you! Don't leave! Stop!"
A group of men who looked lean and tanned, but whose sleeves were rolled up to expose the tendons on their arms, immediately surrounded Chen Ba and the two idle men.
"Li Ergou, what are you talking about here?"
The man named Li Ergou narrowed his eyes with a flash of light.
He shook his head quickly, pointed at Chen Ba and said, "No, it's not me! I didn't say anything! It's him!"
"This outsider! He said that the women's school has conquered our village! He also said that building a women's school has disturbed the ancestral line! It has disturbed the blessings left to us by our ancestors!"
Before Chen Ba could react, he was sold.
"Which village are you from? Why did you come to our village and talk nonsense?"
"I know! Ms. Xia said yesterday that other villages are eager for this good thing to happen to our village! They want the female students to use their village's land!"
"They said they don't need to help build the tents, they will take care of the food and accommodation themselves! They just need to build a girls' school at their place! Their wages are half less than ours!"
"Tell me! Are you from their village?!"
More than a dozen shovels and hoes were pointed at Chen Ba!
Chen Ba was shocked at that time... He had been on the battlefield and fought in battles. Climbed the mountains and suppressed bandits.
But he was pointed at by a group of common people with shovels and hoes - and they were in another country! What a first time in life!
"Everyone has misunderstood!" Chen Ba quickly handed over his hand without causing any trouble, "I just passed by this place and heard them say that the sow had a difficult birth and was overcome by Fang, so I laughed."
"As a result, these two people held on to me and said that I despised their ancestors... It was really unfair. This person is a businessman who came to Beijing from other places, not a local."
When everyone heard that his official dialect had a strong accent, they believed him.
But everyone did not let the two idle men go.
"Li Ergou, it's you two again! You are lazy and gossiping every day!"
"Now he has even learned how to smear the female school! Let me tell you, Xiao Wu of the Li Zheng family was cured by the princess! The Li Zheng family can't wait to have the princess's portrait enshrined!"
"You guys have benefited from the princess and the girls' school! You will have a new house to live in in the future! Now you can still get wages during the slack time!"
"If you dare to ruin everyone's business! I can't kill you!"
The people from Lijiacun said and pushed the two of them.
Li Ergou didn't stand firm and fell to the ground suddenly, and a money bag fell out of him.
There was a crash and everyone fell silent instantly!
A big bag! Even if you say less, you have to be consistent, right?
Everyone's eyes widened!
Li Ergou immediately rushed to grab it.
The older man had experience and picked up the bag of money faster than he did.
"Li Ergou! You are so lazy that you go to every house to buy a meal! You borrowed ten cents and eight cents and haven't paid it back yet! Where did you get all this money?!"
"Is it stolen or robbed?"
"Hey! That merchant from out of town! Is that your money bag?"
Chen Ba was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand quickly, "No, no, it's not mine!"
"Ha! I know! Li Ergou, have you been bribed by someone from another village?! Are you deliberately smearing the female school and trying to make this a scandal?"
"You're dreaming! Let's go, take them to find Li Zheng! Drive Li Ergou out of Lijia Village!"
Li Ergou wanted to snatch the money bag back, and a group of people started a scuffle, trying to beat the dog's brains out for a bag of money.
Chen Ba held his forehead from a distance and sighed.
Don’t think about it anymore. Spreading rumors to smear female students and forcing them to suspend work is totally useless!
Before he could reach Wen Jin, he was held down by the villagers below!
A bag of money can make them fight - what Wen Jin gave them was real money! Real benefits! Can they let rumors ruin a good thing?
Chen Ba was about to go back.
But his attendants rode to find him.
"Sir, you are indeed here, and there is a letter from you!"
The attendant got off his horse and handed him the family letter.
Chen Ba tore open the envelope and said, "Brother's handwriting... Grandma is seriously ill!"
Chen Ba's expression immediately changed.
He had many shortcomings, but his advantages were also obvious, and he was very consistent with the mainstream value at that time - filial piety.
When Chen Ba was born, he almost didn't survive due to congenital deficiencies. After he was born, his face was black and blue, his breath was weak, and he still suffered from insufficiency diseases.
It would cost a lot of money to treat him. At that time, the Chen family was not wealthy and could not afford to support a sick child. Many people said that he would not survive and it was better to give up as soon as possible.
It's his mother who refuses to give up no matter what... He also has two brothers above him.
Her mother gave all the work at home to her two brothers, and carried him up the mountain every day to collect herbs and firewood. Send the medicine and firewood to the old village doctor in the village.
Finally, the old village doctor was moved and continued to treat him.
Xu was extremely peaceful. When he grew up, he was actually the tallest, strongest, and the best among his brothers!
"It was my mother-in-law who gave me two lives! It was my mother-in-law who gave me what I have achieved today!" Chen Ba always said this.
He saw the letter saying that grandma was seriously ill and almost died... Before he finished reading the letter, he was about to mount his horse and go back.
"I want to go back to Chen Country!"
"hiss……"
The action of mounting the horse pulled the injury behind him, and he grinned in pain, "Fuck..."
"Master! Read it! There is another one at the back!" The attendant reminded him quickly.
Chen Ba opened the second piece of letter paper and said, "Brother got a life-saving medicine from Dadexing Auction House to keep my mother alive... The miracle doctor came from Daliang. He sent my mother to Daliang and asked me to look for the miracle doctor in Daliang?! "
Chen Ba raised his head hesitantly, "Daliang Miracle Doctor?"
