Chapter 112: No Rent (2)
Chapter 112: No Rent (2)
"You're still proud of yourself after divorcing her, saying that you've saved rice, and you look down on the poor people in the village, thinking that they'll never achieve anything in their lives. How dare you say that's not you?" The old lady sneered. "I heard you say all these things with my own ears."
I can't refute it even if I want to.
"God is watching what you do. If you do too many immoral things, you will get your comeuppance sooner or later." The old man rarely spoke and joined the crusade. He really couldn't stand it anymore.
Liu's mother aroused the public's anger and dared not say a word. The village chief looked at Liu's mother and said, "Okay, if you don't agree, go back! I'll make it clear in advance that those who disagree will not get the six taels of silver."
"Why?" When Liu's mother heard that 6 taels were gone, she immediately quit.
"Why? Because you don't agree. If you don't agree, you won't get any money." The old lady said directly, "You really want to take advantage of everything. You don't agree here, but you still want to take advantage of others. How can you be so shameless?"
"I don't care. If she rents the mountain, I will definitely get the six taels." Liu's mother said arrogantly, she didn't care about her face for the money.
Life at home has been tight lately, so don’t be a fool if you have money.
"Sorry, I don't want to rent it anymore." Ji Xiaomu said with a smile, "Everyone, go away!"
"Why don't you rent it anymore!!!" The villagers who had been waiting to get the money were immediately dissatisfied. They had already thought that they would definitely get 6 taels of silver and were thinking about how to spend this huge sum of money. Now they were suddenly told that they would not rent it anymore? Then they would have no money to take?
"I'm afraid of too many troubles. She hates me so much. Maybe I raise chickens in the mountains, but she treats herself as my mother-in-law and comes to harm my chickens or secretly take my things. This is definitely something she can do. She has done it many times before." Ji Xiaomu said lightly. She easily dragged Liu's mother into the water. For her sake, she would not rent the house. How great.
No one loses.
"Don't! We all agree!" The villagers persuaded, but Ji Xiaowu still shook her head. "I was thinking wrong. The mountain is so big. If I raise chickens, I have to hire people to look after them, take care of them, and guard the house. I may have to endure those who want to take advantage of me and steal my chickens from time to time. It's a thankless job."
The villagers all frowned, and the thought that Ji Xiaomu had just said flashed through their minds. Many of the vagrants did think of waiting for the chickens to grow up and then stealing them to eat when they were hungry.
Ji Xiaowu spoke so openly about this sensitive topic. The village chief looked at the silent villagers and sighed in his heart that there were quite a few people who were planning to steal something.
"You really don't want to rent it anymore?" several villagers asked unwillingly.
"It's not needed for now." Ji Xiaowu said with a smile, "Everyone, go away. I'm sorry to bother you today. Go back to your work."
"Dad, let's go." Seeing that everyone was still looking at her eagerly, Ji Xiaou turned around and left with Uncle Li. The villagers saw her neat back without looking back, and the look she gave Liu's mother was like a knife, cutting her to pieces.
"Mr. Liu, can't you just not stand to see everyone doing well? Ah? Why do you have to provoke Mrs. Ji? She has already been divorced by you, what else do you want?" the villagers said angrily. Mrs. Ji didn't know that after she left, there would be a group of unwilling villagers.
"I...how would I know that she would suddenly not rent the house anymore." Mother Liu was heartbroken. She didn't know why Ji Xiaomu suddenly said that she didn't want to rent the house anymore.
