Chapter 212:

Old Zhao anxiously said: “Village Chief, you shouldn’t be helping these outsiders to put words. Don’t you know the situation of our family? Now that we have the opportunity to make money. How can you choose to help the outsiders rather than us, your village people?”

When Old Zhao’s words fell, some villagers immediately agreed.

Village Chief Li swept his cold eyes towards the villagers and yelled at them: “What are you all blabbering about? Why do you think Song Gong is willing to invite Wu Jiang and Li Cheng, but not willing to hire you, people? Haven’t you thought about it? When others suffer for free, all you do is mock them. But now that they get benefits from it, you all get jealous? Who owes you, people, a favor? Last time, you all blocked Hu Changlin’s house and forced them to sell you low-priced rice. I haven’t settled that account to you people yet, and now here you are causing trouble again? Are you people waiting for the government official to come, before you give up?”

Seeing Village Chief Li shouting in anger and mentioning about the government official. They immediately remember that Bai Zhi’s connection to Meng Nan was not shallow. If he came here, they will be miserable.

The villagers were about to retreat, but at this time, Bai Zhi and Hu Feng arrived with a pushcart. The cart has large wooden barrels on top it. The large wooden barrels were covered with a thin cloth.

However, even when it was covered with a thin cloth, the aroma in the barrels were leaking, forcing them to swallow their own saliva.

Bai Zhi and Hu Feng were too lazy to take care of the villagers. They directly pushed the cart next to Village Chief Li, then Bai Zhi smiled at him: “Thank you, Li Bobo, for seeking justice for me. If you didn’t come, I’m originally intending to go to the town to ask Meng Daren to seek justice for me. But since you came forward, I will let it slide and don’t pay attention to them for delaying the construction.”

Village Chief Li smiled and said: “We are village folks, and it’s nothing of a big deal. You are broad-minded person, you don’t need to argue with them.”

Bai Zhi smiled and nodded her head, her beautiful long eyelashes winked.

“Li Bobo, you said it like this, I will naturally not argue with them. However, I don’t want the same thing to happen again. Otherwise, I will not back out easily.”

While speaking, Bai Zhi pulled the thin cloth that was covering the barrels, and an irresistible fragrance spread out.

Two wooden barrels, one was full of bread and the other one was full of thick porridge. Plus a large bowl of side dishes. Although they were only simple foods, they are all mouth-watering.

Bai Zhi said to Song Gong: “Song Bobo, the time is late, eat your lunch before you work again. Your work this morning was delayed, so just eat here.”

Song Gong nodded his head again and again: “Well, that’s it.” Then, he turned back and asked his people to come out to eat.

Each worker has a large bowl of white porridge, plus two pieces of bread and a side dish for free.

The villagers who haven’t leave had seen all these foods. The foods were really different from the rice soup and wild vegetables they have at home.

Wu Jiang and Li Cheng were a little embarrassed, so they refused to take meals.

Song Gong saw them and asked: “You don’t want to eat?”

Wu Jiang and Li Cheng looked at each other, they swallowed their own saliva and said that that they were not hungry.
