Chapter 40 Promise to Help
"Let's go, we won't rent anymore." Uncle An pulled Wang Er fiercely and was about to leave. The village head smiled coldly, pulled out his own contract from his arms and said, "Okay, but it's clearly written in black and white. , Violators of the contract will be compensated 50 taels."

"50 taels?!" Uncle An yelled angrily. He grabbed Village Chief An by the collar and said angrily, "Are you still human?"

"What are you doing, you want to hit someone?" Village Chief An was not afraid to look into Uncle An's eyes, and put the contract in front of his face, and said with a deadpan face: "You want to stand out so much, or you come to tear up this contract? You tear up the contract I'll report to the officer, how about you going to prison for several years in exchange for Wang Er?"

"You!" Second Uncle An glared angrily, gasping for breath. Wang Er was beside him with a sallow face. He pulled Uncle An's hand from his collar and said softly, "Forget it, forget it."

"Mr. An, I have rented this farmhouse. The rent is really difficult. I will go to your field to help tomorrow."

"Hey, that's right." Village Chief An pretended to say, "We're all from the same village, so how could I make things difficult for you?"

Wang Er waved his hands, half crying and half laughing, he pulled Uncle La'an and turned around to leave, but was stopped by the other side.

"Cun Chief An, good and evil will be rewarded in the end, you should do it yourself." Second Uncle An stared into the eyes of Village Chief An, put down these words, grabbed Wang Er and strode away.

Village Chief An squinted at their leaving back, hummed a few times, carefully folded the contract and put it in his chest, humming a little tune with his hands behind his back and left.

An Xiaoxiao and Jiang Chao watched the excitement, looked at each other, and decided to go back to the inn first, and then look for Second Uncle An tomorrow.

"I almost wanted to help out just now." The two were silent along the way, and Jiang Chao sighed and opened his mouth first.

"How do you help? Do you help him tear up the contract and send you to jail, or do you pay 50 taels of silver for him?" An Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows, pointing out: "If you don't uproot the source of the disaster, Can you help me with this?"

"The village head changes every three years. Unless the superiors send people to inspect, it is rare for a village to change the village head during the term of office." Jiang Chao said helplessly: "There is still one and a half years before the next election, and there is still a long way to go. .”

"According to this situation, even if you are elected, he may be the next one. Believe it or not." An Xiaoxiao sneered, and Jiang Chao waved his hands helplessly.

Nothing was done today, and the "rejection reaction" that the original owner's body would produce as soon as he entered Anjia Village, An Xiaoxiao was very upset. She went back to the room and barely scrubbed her body, and then fell asleep.

"I don't agree! All the strong men in the village will let a woman sacrifice her life to save her, and if she speaks out, she will lose face to our ancestors!"

"Second Uncle An, that's not what you said."

An Xiaoxiao was woken up by the knock on the door. She raised her hand to touch her eyes, looked at the water marks on her hands in confusion, and took a deep breath.

"Miss An." Jiang Chao, who was still at the door, knocked on the door again, "Second Uncle An should be resting at the edge of the field, and it is just right for us to go there now."

Rest so early?An Xiaoxiao turned her head to look out of the window and said something rude.

Wucao, why is it already noon!An Xiaoxiao jumped up, responded to the door, hurriedly put on her coat and started to wash.

When the two arrived at Uncle An's farmhouse, he was squatting on the edge of the field smoking dry tobacco.Jiang Chao stepped forward and called Uncle An.

Uncle An knocked his pipe on the ground, raised his eyelids and glanced at them, ignoring them.

Jiang Chao was not embarrassed either. He opened his robe and squatted next to Uncle An, pointing at An Xiaoxiao to explain why he came. Smile and let the other party look at you.

"Go, go, what kind of medicine shop does the little girl film, come home to be the eldest lady, and come to the village to join in the fun." Uncle An didn't even finish listening to Jiang Chao's speech, so he waved his hand impatiently and interrupted, picked up the hoe and went down Liaodi: "Don't disturb the old man farming."

After that, no matter how Jiang Chao and An Xiaoxiao talked to him, he didn't gnaw, but just buried himself in the field, as if there were only a few inches of his small field left between the sky and the earth.

The two struggled for a long time without getting a response. Finally, when the farming was over, Second Uncle An resisted the hoe and went home directly past the two of them.Jiang Chao cast a look at An Xiaoxiao and spread his hands.

An Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows, then pursed her mouth.

"Second uncle, good morning."

In the early morning light, Uncle An picked up his hoe and arrived at the edge of the field when he saw An Xiaoxiao squatting on the side of the road with a farm tool in his arms, with a smile on his fair face, and he waved his hand to greet him loudly.

Uncle An didn't look sideways, lowered his head to change his equipment, and went straight to the field to plow.An Xiaoxiao didn't feel annoyed, and jumped off the field to help.Second Uncle An frowned and wanted to stop her, but seeing her swift and skillful movements, he was a little surprised, he hesitated for a moment and then followed her.

"Second Uncle, see you tomorrow." An Xiaoxiao wiped the sweat off her brow, and shouted at the back of Second Uncle An,
The man's back froze, and he continued to walk forward.

"Second Uncle An, good morning." An Xiaoxiao arrived the next day as promised, she jumped off the field and continued with her work.The farmer next to him finally reacted. He looked at An Xiaoxiao's tanned arm, hesitated to speak, finally snorted a few times, and buried himself in the cultivation.

"Second Uncle, see you tomorrow morning." After a day of farm work, An Xiaoxiao rubbed her sore arms and smiled at Second Uncle An.

Uncle An bowed his head in silence and concentrated on packing the farm tools.

"Oh, Second Uncle An, where did you cheat me, the little lady?" A passing rascal whistled and happened to see this scene. Grinning his legs and grinning at Second Uncle An, his mouth was dirty: "The old tree is rejuvenating! This is better than that sick one."

"Get out!" Second Uncle An was so angry that his face flushed, he raised his hoe and was about to chase after them, seeing that the little rascal was really angry, he smiled and ran away.

"Little girl." Uncle An supported his knees and squatted beside the field, endured and endured, and finally said helplessly, "Tell me, why is this necessary?"

An Xiaoxiao didn't care, picked up the hoe and walked to the inn.

On the third day, Second Uncle An saw An Xiaoxiao squatting on the side of the road again, and finally broke out. Seeing that there was no one around, he whispered to An Xiaoxiao, come with me, and walked straight to the farmhouse.

"What are you going to do!" Uncle An was sitting on the bench next to the farmhouse, his face turned blue with anger, and he knocked on the table heavily: "You girl hang out with an old man every day, what do you look like!"

"I just want to open a pharmacy in Anjia Village, and I would like to ask for your help." An Xiaoxiao replied obediently.

"What kind of drugstore?" Second Uncle An took a deep breath, looked around, and said in a low voice, "You don't know the situation in this village, so go away."

"I know what's going on." An Xiaoxiao looked into Uncle An's eyes, and added as if he didn't believe him: "I saw the quarrel between you and An Cunzhang that day."

"You didn't leave when you saw it!" Uncle An was in a hurry, and he didn't care too much. He leaned a little closer and said seriously: "Now the village is his one-way house. If you open a medicine shop here, I'm afraid you will be killed if you don't have bones." Chew it all."

"Be obedient and leave tomorrow. What can such a handsome girl do wrong? Why come here?" Uncle An tried hard to persuade: "If there is no money, I will give it to you. You can use the money to find a job outside. When you are old Marrying someone is no better than opening a pharmacy here."

The nagging man in front of her eyes gradually overlapped with the figure arguing for her in her dream, An Xiaoxiao tried her best to suppress the sourness in her chest, and smiled at Second Uncle An.
