Chapter 23： play off

Chapter 23 Provocation

The people who originally wanted to take advantage of the people, after hearing Chen's words, secretly dissatisfied, but in the end they were too embarrassed to say their goals directly, and their enthusiasm was reduced by half.

Enthusiastic people gossip and start to inquire about the benefits Zhou Qing got from going to the yamen.

"What's the benefit? The food and lodging are all in the yamen, which is enough to save food for the family," Chen shi put aside the money and continued: "The county magistrate is grateful for the Quyuan plow that the fourth son of my family gave him and gave him five acres of land. It is said that it is recorded in the name of the fourth daughter-in-law, and the right should be her dowry!"

When the villagers heard it, they immediately exploded.

"My God, what about five acres of land?"

"I don't know if it's dry land or paddy field. If it's a paddy field, it would be a dozen taels, and five acres would be tens of taels!"

"Even dry land is not cheap. In our village, several daughters-in-law have five acres of land!"

The more everyone talks, the more heartbroken.

Zhou Rong is the only scholar in the village. Although he is not very outstanding, he is still different from the villagers.

Many people in the village are envious and feel that the Zhou family is wasting their efforts. Thinking of a farmer as a scholar is more difficult than reaching the sky.

But no matter what, everyone is afraid that Zhou Rong will actually pass the exam, so be a little polite to the anniversary.

Knowing that the Xi family had killed Zhou Rong and even lost his career, many people felt that that was the right thing to do.

The Zhou family, who has been proud in the village for so many years, is finally coming down, especially when they know that Xi Yao has entered the door and there is nothing, they are waiting to see the joke.

But I haven't laughed for two days, this Xi Yao's dowry has become the first share in the village, who can laugh at this.

"I don't know if it's a paddy field or a dry field, but we have a lot of family members, no matter what kind it is, it will be clear when the yamen arrives today," Chen said with a smile.

She saw everyone's emotions.

People tried to laugh at her, but they were slapped in the face.

This made her have to squirm, and she always wanted to let people know that their family was not so easy to bully.

"It's obvious that the Quyuan plow can be used by the villagers first, but it was exchanged for land. Mrs. Chen, your daughter-in-law really doesn't care about the village at all!" Some people were so jealous that they couldn't help but start to sow discord.

These words made Chen shi unhappy.

"Yu Xianghua, you have been in our Zhoujia Village for decades. You think for the sake of the village, why don't you give up your house and the land? Many people in the village still live in thatched cottages," Chen continued. The name and surname shouted, and followed her words and asked.

"That's not the same," Yu Xianghua retorted, stomping her feet and pinching her neck.

"What's the difference? For the sake of the village, who of you will free up five acres of land for the fourth of my family!" She protects her shortcoming and does not allow anyone to ruin the reputation of her daughter-in-law.

"Forget it, don't be arguing, when Zhou Qing makes it and the price is right, we'll just go and buy it," some people thought Yu Xianghua had said a little too much, so they persuaded.

Yu Xianghua became angry, "It's nice to say, but what I want for nothing, it's as if I only care about it!"

These words stabbed the hornet's nest and made everyone in the village want to distance themselves from her.

"Who is like you, thinking about taking advantage all day long," someone retorted angrily, and then didn't bother to pay attention to her.

Yu Xianghua was isolated by everyone at once.

Chen looked at it and felt relieved, then greeted the family, "Let's go, go to work,"

This matter has been resolved very well, otherwise, it will be the reaction of the villagers, and their family will suffer.
