Chapter 341： Abacus failed

Chapter 341 The plan failed

Everyone had a look of astonishment on their faces. Mrs. Zhou blushed in embarrassment, but no one noticed.

This side of the city.

A dozen fishing villages were merged into four, and each village was no longer a single family. Chenjia Village and Hankou Village were not together. After the Chen clan settled down, they all looked at the crazy Chen mother with disgust.

“Uncle, the official told me that she must have a place to live alone.” Chen Zhang looked at the clan leader dissatisfied and put Chen’s mother’s problem into perspective.

Chen Laohei didn't want to get involved in Chen's mother's affairs at all, but because he was the clan leader, he had to take care of it.

Chen Laohei's wife, Chen Zhou, rolled her eyes and said, "Didn't I tell her to bring back her daughter-in-law before? You have so many people looking for her, but you haven't found her yet. It's not like she has no relatives. Who can take care of it?"

Chen Zhang snorted coldly, "Aunt, you can't say that. Gong and Chen Dayong have reconciled. When Chen Dayong's family bullied Gong, no one stood up for justice for her. Now that they need her, everyone thinks of her. Come on, you think I'm being taken advantage of, and you're not stupid. We've gone to find him so many times, and we've been disappointed. I want to go to you, but I don't want to be angry with you."

"Hey! From the Chen Da family, the Dayong family is the closest to your family. Who cares about you?" Mrs. Chen Zhou immediately darkened her face.

Chen Zhang folded his hands on his chest and looked confidently at all the clan members present, "In terms of closeness and distance, the closest relationship to Dayong's family is my uncle and aunt! When Dayong was alive, didn't you all share our family Dayong? Chen Dayong wanted to marry You also agreed to the widow, why don’t you want to take care of it now?

In short, I’ll leave it here today. We can’t control this person. You can figure it out yourself. "

Chen Dahei was furious. The houses they lived in were all allocated by the government based on population. Every household had either just enough room to live in, or only one or two more rooms. Their family just had one more room, and he She is the leader of the Chen clan. If no one really cares about this crazy woman, he must take over.

Chen Dayong's mother cannot be allowed to live on the street, otherwise the official will take over their house.

Chen Zhangshi raised his head and looked at Chen Dahei, frowned and asked in a low voice: "What should we do? Do we really want her to live in our house?"

Chen Dahei gritted his teeth, "Let's all go to the Gong family to find the Gong family. So what if we reconcile? Since ancient times, filial piety has been paramount. Gong's mother-in-law has fallen into this situation. She doesn't care who cares!"

The Chen clan had no other choice but to follow a large group of people to find someone from the Gong family in the next village.

In addition to the villagers of Hankou Village, the next door village also has Jiangtuo Village, Jiangxin Village, Wanghai Village and several villages together. Everyone is still in the running-in period, and no one is nosy. Seeing so many people entering the village, everyone is just curious, and even Follow behind and watch the fun.

A group of people came to Gong's house and saw that the door of Gong's courtyard was locked, their faces turned half black.

A Ping, who lives next door to the Gong family, saw the battle as soon as he went out. His face darkened inexplicably, "What do you want to do?"

Everyone, look at me and I’ll look at you.

Chen Dahei took the initiative to stand up and asked seriously: "We are looking for Gong Mei, where is she?"

Ah Ping asked without answering, "What are you looking for her for? If it's about Chen Dayong's family, I advise you to save it! You won't be able to see her."

"What do you mean? The Gong family still wants to hide Gong Mei? Let me tell you, she was born as a Chen family member, and died as a Chen family ghost. She has to take care of her mother-in-law!" Chen Zhou shouted angrily.

Even told the villagers in detail about Gong Mei's various discomforts.

  We were originally from the same place, and no one knew what was going on with the Chen family and the Gong family. No one was instigated by the Chen Zhou family at all, they just secretly muttered about retribution.

Chen Zhou's face turned red with anger.

The Chen clan members also looked irritable.

"No matter what, the Gong family must hand over Gong Mei today. Even if the official officials come, we will not leave!" A man from the Chen family yelled through gritted teeth.

Get support from all tribesmen. A Ping watched their quarrel indifferently, with a hint of contemptuous ridicule at the corner of his mouth, "Sister Gong Mei left Quzhou Prefecture two months ago, who are you looking for?"

“What?” Everyone in the Chen clan changed their faces.

 Chen Zhou retorted without even thinking, "Impossible! She is a woman who reconciled after her second marriage. Which man dares to want her? Stop fooling us!"

A Ping shrugged, "Believe it or not, people in our village haven't seen her for two months. If you don't believe it, you can go find out for yourself."

At this moment, Gong Hai and the little woman came back carrying fish baskets.

The Chen clan members immediately surrounded him, shouting at him to hand over Gong Mei.

Gong Hai's mother-in-law, Mrs. Gao, hid behind Gong Hai in fear and said weakly: "What are you talking about? There is no woman named Gong Mei in our family."

Chen Zhou's eyes widened instantly, "Who are you?"

Mrs. Gao said in grievance, "I am Gong Hai's new wife. There is really no one named Gong Mei in our family. You are looking for the wrong person."

 Chen Zhou felt her eyes go dark and fell straight down.

From the initial clamor, the Chen clan had to accept the reality and left in anger.

People left, there was no excitement, and the villagers dispersed.

Gong Hai nodded to A Ping to thank him and led Gao through the door.

As soon as the door closed, Mrs. Gao asked about Gong Mei.

Gong Hai didn't hide anything, he just said: "That's my sister, but she will never come back again."

Speaking, a tear fell from Gong Hai's eyes. After putting down his things, he quickly ran out of the house and went to the beach to help Gong's father and Gong's mother move their things.

The family of three looked at the island on the sea, and then at the city wall in front of them that was being intensively built. Next year they would not be able to see their eldest sister across the sea.

On the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, it snowed for the first time this year in Quzhou.

Ji Wuya was still working in the government office. When he heard the servants coming to report, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, the people have houses, all the clothes to keep out the cold have been distributed, and the food can last until the spring of next year. Then I hope to come to the court for disaster relief." The food should have come down too.”

Ji Wuya's brows instantly furrowed when he mentioned this. As soon as Dilong turned around, he had people rush to deliver the message to the capital. The emperor should have received the news a month ago. Counting the days, there should be news within a month at the latest. Of course, his treatment will also be dealt with.

The scribe Chai Wentao said comfortingly: "Sir, you have done a good job. If you had not made a prompt decision, the losses to Quzhou Prefecture would have been greater. We have already discussed it. If the emperor really punishes you, we will fight with thousands of people." I will plead for you and I will never let a good official like you get into trouble!"

Chai Wentao spoke so sincerely that Ji Wuya was stunned for a moment, then laughed so hard that tears came out of his eyes, "Old Chai! It's worth it to have subordinates like you in this department!"

At this moment, the Yamen rushed in with a panic expression and reported: "Sir, I have received news that the emperor has arrived at Dongli Villa."

Ji Wuya stood up suddenly and knocked over the table, "What did you say!"
