Luo Mingfeng sighed, and his face gradually faded: "well, when my father was still alive, the Jia family was well-off. I heard that Jia Li was a good man at that time. When his family was poor, he went to his family to borrow food. If it wasn't for Jia Lizheng's help at that time, I really didn't know how to survive that time, Although the food was still available later, Jiali helped me. It was hard for me to see him being pushed out by the villagers“
It turns out that there is such a past between Luo's grandfather and Jia Lizheng. No wonder Luo's grandfather seems to have a good relationship with Jia Lizheng. Jia Lizheng helped Luo's grandfather many years ago. After so many years, Jia Lizheng was bullied by several villages around him because of his reputation as a good man. No wonder Tong Yi village has no good achievements in politics for so many years, Nowadays, most of the people in his village depend on working outside for a living. Most of the people left in the village are old, weak, sick and disabled. It's said that they grow good vegetables in their village. Su Miaomiao plans to go there to have a look.
"Grandfather Luo, or you can come to Tongyi village with me," Su Miaomiao thought for a moment and said slowly.
Luo Mingfeng looks happy when he hears this. Miss Su has many ideas. Maybe she can help Jia Lizheng in Tongyi village.
They came out from Luo Mingfeng's home. Baixi village is not far from Tongyi village. Su Miaomiao and Luo Mingfeng arrived in less than half an hour.
Luo Mingfeng knew Jia Lizheng's residence. After they entered the village, they went straight to Jia Lizheng's home.
Jia Lizheng's family is sitting in the hall. They all look dignified. When they see Jia Lizheng coming in, their eyes show more or less disdain.
One of the oldest seniors, a gray haired old man in his seventies, coughed twice and said, "Lizheng, did you borrow food from lorizheng when you went to Baixi village this time?"“
Jia Li is lowering his head and looks like he has made a mistake. When he looks like this, several ethnic elders sigh one after another.
"I said Lizheng, your reputation as a good man has spread, but you can't hurt everyone, can you? Now it's the time to use grain. You know the government won't give us any time off. The day of grain delivery is coming. You have to hold fast to it! " Lu clan head shakes head, a pair of distressed appearance.
The flower clan leader next to him shook his head: "yes, when you lent out the grain, why didn't you think that today, I could look at Xiao Qi in Yuanling village, but I can't stand the way he preached about borrowing grain from you. The villagers in our village already know about your borrowing. If the grain doesn't come back, We have to gather more food to make up for the vacancy of the government. You know what's the situation in our village now. Young people are working outside, and there are only some older people left in the village. It's not easy to grow some food. It won't take their lives to let them gather more food! "
Clan leader Hua said this to the point, and clan leader Xu couldn't see it any more: "today, you have to give us an account. You said that what good things you have done to the village for so many years, and you can also distinguish what you borrowed from the village. It's really good for you to do good deeds with the grain in the village“
Jia Li just knew that he was wrong, and he didn't retort. He lowered his head and bit his lips. He was so old that he was told that. How could he not feel uncomfortable.
There was a sound of footsteps outside the house. When several elders saw that it was Jia Lizheng's daughter-in-law coming, their faces softened slightly.
Mo listened outside for a while. The more she listened, the more angry she became. Her father-in-law couldn't make a fart on weekdays. It was said that the fat water didn't flow to outsiders. His father-in-law was good. He didn't get any money from his family, but he gave it to others.
Mo's look down on Jia Li Zheng, carrying tea into the house, not even a positive eye to Jia Li Zheng.
Several ethnic elders know that Jia Cang, Jia Lizheng's son, works in Yuzhou Prefecture and comes back to the village once a month. When he comes back, he brings a lot of things with him. They all say that Jia Lizheng's family is very comfortable. It's not all because he has a good son.
It was because of the fact that Jia Lizheng had a good son, several ethnic elders gave him some face again and again. However, as the days of grain collection set by the government were getting closer and closer, they had no choice but to preach.
After pouring out the tea, Mo went to his own room. He didn't seem to care about Jia Lizheng's condition at all.
Because of his guilt, Jia Li is about to bite his own tongue. He knows that he is soft hearted and can't do anything great. But when he borrowed something, he didn't mean to die or die. In fact, his idea is very simple. He just wants to help others tide over the difficulties. Who knows that other people don't pay back the grain, which is important to this batch of grain, Jia Lizheng naturally knew that he had already gone to Yuanling village twice. Xiao Qi refused to admit that he had borrowed the food from Tongyi village. He blamed himself for believing in Xiao Qi so much that he didn't even let him set up a document. Otherwise, he could still go to the government to comment on it.
Seeing that Jia Li was bowing his head, the elders of several ethnic groups knew that this time they had come to an end, and their faces became more and more ugly.
"Well, there's no other way. We can't count on Jiali. Otherwise, we'll call the villagers together to discuss and choose a new one." Huazu sighs. He knows that it's not easy to re elect Lizheng. Jia Lizheng has helped many people in the village for so many years. He is also thinking about the future of his village. If Jia Lizheng continues to be such a good man, people in other villages will beat their brains to the head of their village one after another. How good will it be at that time?
"I see, let's do it like this. In recent years, our lips have been worn out." With a helpless look on his face, clan leader Xu said, "because the food can't come out, people in our clan are asking me where the food stored in the village has gone. Can I say that it has been lent out by Jia Lizheng? I'm getting bigger now. "
"Since it can't be concealed, the villagers will complain about it sooner or later. Otherwise, we'll find an able man. If anyone can get the grain back, he'll be our village. What's the matter?" Lu clan chief stroked his beard and seemed to be very satisfied with the idea he thought of.
Clan leader Hua pondered for a moment. It's no harm to his clan. As long as he can get through this difficulty, he doesn't have any opinions about who will be the clan leader.
