Chapter 97 Move ([-])

The village head was immediately unhappy when he heard Uncle Wu's words: "Uncle Wu, do you need to compare this? Isn't it obvious that Wang Hao wrote it? Even if it wasn't written by him, it was written by someone else!" Confused, he just wanted to embarrass Xiucai and trouble him, but he didn't think that he would really offend Xiucai. In a fit of anger, he left the village's children to be taught.He never thought that even if he really kicked the scholar's family out of Wangjia Village, the other villages would be more than happy to accept his family after all because of his reputation as a scholar.

The most important thing is that everyone in the neighborhood knows that Wang Xiucai of Wangjia Village has a very good temper, and his wife, Mrs. Lin, is also very good-tempered. But you, Village Chief Wang, want to find an excuse to drive him away, saying that Few people would believe the fault of the scholar.On the contrary, everyone is more willing to believe that the village chief has some reason to drive people out of his hands.

After all, there are very few opportunities to gossip about the head of a village, so how could everyone let go of such a big gossip?

Lin Guoxiang was somewhat guilty when she heard the words of the village chief, but the anger in her heart was aroused all of a sudden, and she wanted to speak up to defend herself, but Xiucai secretly reached out and grabbed her sleeve, and signaled her not to act rashly with his eyes.

Lin Guoxiang's words swirled around on the tip of her tongue before swallowing them back. She took a small step back and stood behind Xiucai, looking coldly at the village chief, wanting to see what other tricks he could come up with. Come.

The words on that piece of wood were written by her with her left hand, and some difficult characters inside were also written in white characters at the request of the scholar, which are actually simplified characters, just in case.Although there are a few young people in the village who can read a few words, most of them can only write some simple words. It would be doubtful if she really wrote all the words correctly.

"Village chief, I can't accept your words!" Xiucai looked at the village chief who was about to burst into anger and said unhurriedly. This is also the most annoying thing about him. He can still be so slow when others are going to be mad. , isn't it obvious that you want to piss people off?

"Fifth Uncle, I hope you can clear up my grievances." Xiucai said to the village chief, then turned to look at Fifth Uncle and said.

"It's clear that you did it!" Wang Jincai also jumped out at this time. His father used to make him tolerate it every time, but now he couldn't help but get angry when he finally waited until his father couldn't help it. How could he give up the opportunity to suppress scholars? , "Don't think I don't know, you are relying on your status as a scholar to contradict my father, if it weren't for my father's generosity to see that you have a little use for the village, he would have kicked you out of Wangjia Village long ago!" After a pause, he continued. Said, "Don't think that you are so great if you are a scholar. Your status is still useful in our small village. If you have the ability, go and come back from the examination of a scholar. Tsk tsk, you are a scholar. Isn’t it still like this after more than ten years? I think the scholar you took the exam must have plagiarized!”

Finally said all the words that have been suppressed in his heart for so many years, Wang Jincai only felt a breath of turbid air in his chest, and his whole body became lighter.

After listening to Wang Jincai's words, the scholar glanced at him coldly, and in a blink of an eye, he returned to his previous gentle and jade-like appearance, and said slowly: "Brother Jincai, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately. Don’t you know if I plagiarized when I went to the village to take the exam? The exam room was so strict that you couldn’t even bring a mosquito in. I still remember that someone almost didn’t even enter the exam room because he brought a note, and ended up stuffing a lot of money. He said a lot of words before entering the examination room."

In fact, what Xiucai wants to say is that even if I am a scholar who can plagiarize, it is still my ability. It is better than someone stretching his neck but not being able to plagiarize, right?But looking at Wang Jincai's panic-stricken look, he thought about it or let it go. It's not a last resort, but he was said to be so desperate.

Lin Guoxiang felt that Xiucai had really gone bad. According to previous memories, although this guy's mouth was sometimes a bit poisonous, he would never expose other people's faults like he does now, and he would not turn on others in front of so many people. Those old accounts are embarrassing.She suddenly wondered in her heart, could it be that all these changes were due to the arrival of a little butterfly, she accidentally flapped her little wings and turned Xiucai into this?
She thinks it must be so, but she doesn't think there is anything wrong with such a change. Since she was a child, she has not had such a strong sense of morality. If someone does something that suits her taste, even if that person is killing people, maybe she will do it for a while. Xingqi will also pass a knife or something to help.

In fact, what Lin Guoxiang doesn't know is that because of her arrival and some things she has done these days, the rebellious factors hidden in Xiucai's bones for these years have been thoroughly stimulated, and he has been suppressed for so many years and finally slowly recovered. It started to explode.

Whoops, what a sin, why did I think of this issue so well.Lin Guoxiang secretly shook her head in her heart, throwing away this idea that the world thought was absurd, then squinted her eyes with great interest to watch the faces of the village chief and his son change, red, white, yellow, black, purple Simply colorful and wonderful.

Wang Jincai blushed with anger from the scholar's words, wasn't the so-and-so person he was talking about himself back then?This was the greatest shame in his life, and he was lucky enough to be seen by Xiucai at that time, so he has been trying to bully Xiucai for so many years, besides jealousy, there is also this part of the reason.

The surrounding villagers couldn't understand what the scholar said, but because the village chief couldn't talk loudly here, they whispered to each other, and there was a buzzing noise all around, like a swarm of bees suddenly It's like entering a village.

The village chief originally wanted to vent his anger on Xiucai just because he was hanged on a tree inexplicably and made a fool of himself in front of the whole village, so he wanted to take revenge on Xiucai. Drive out of Wangjiacun.Xiucai can bully his son in front of him now, so will he be the village chief in the future?Having been the village head for 20 years, that arrogance has long been engraved in his bones, and he will never allow anyone to climb over his head and ignore him.

So when Xiucai broke the news about Wang Jincai's embarrassing incident back then, the village head who was extremely angry calmed down, and his mind turned very fast, thinking about how to easily drive Xiucai's family out of Wangjia Village and persuade him The surrounding villagers and fifth uncle.The villagers are easy to dismiss, but the fifth uncle is not so easy to dismiss.

Thinking of Fifth Uncle, the village head suddenly felt a trace of resentment. This old man, who is in his seventies, can't stay at home and bring his great-grandson out to meddle in his own business every day. It's really annoying!

So seeing Uncle Wu frowning, he hurriedly shouted to the scholar without waiting for him to speak: "Wang Hao, I am so polite to you in vain, but you don't pay attention to me, the village head, because of your status as a scholar. If you are like this now, you will be able to pay back in the future!"

Uncle Wu's brows were directly frowned this time, and a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes. He never thought that the upright junior before would become so domineering now. Could it be that he has been the village head for too long so he thought Have the capital to be arrogant?
Lin Guoxiang felt that she was about to be pissed off by the village chief and his son. She felt that she would be too sorry if she didn't say anything today. If they really want to leave Wangjiacun, they can't leave under such circumstances, or they will be laughed at to death in the future?If there are those who are gossip and imaginative, maybe they have to be imagined.

Thinking of this, Lin Guoxiang stood up from behind him regardless of the scholar's objection, her tone was still cowardly, but she was full of air, which could be heard by everyone around: "Village chief, you and your son keep your mouth shut. It is said that my husband is not right, but why don’t you tell your own mistakes? The things you have done these years have offended many people, and now you are tied up in front of the whole village by people who can’t see The person’s face turned ugly, so he took all his anger on us? You keep saying that we caused you to be like this, but what is the evidence? What can you explain with those two pieces of wood on the ground?"

Lin Guoxiang didn't give the village chief and his son a chance to speak, and continued: "If you want to talk about people who can read and write, there are many people in the village who can write. Why should you just say that it's my job? And you always say My husband is defiant because of his status as a scholar, but you don’t look at yourself, obviously you are bullying us because of your status as the village head, but you turn the blame on us!"

After a pause, she said again: "Besides, our family can hang your whole family on a tree without making a fuss? I remember that your family has a big yellow dog. Even if we really went to your house to rob people, can the dog remain silent?"

When Xiucai heard Lin Guoxiang's words, he knew that there must be no room for today's affairs. It seems that this family must move.When he came back last night, he chatted with Lin Guoxiang for a while. He heard that she wanted to move to Linjiacun, which would protect the children anyway. He actually agreed, but he still wanted to wait for his father-in-law. It's not too late for them to find someone to build the house, but now it seems that they can't delay.It seems that this girl has been wanting to move for more than a day or two, and she probably can't wait for a moment.

What Lin Guoxiang said made Fifth Uncle couldn't help but give her a meaningful look, and a hint of hidden emotion flashed in his eyes.This talented woman is notoriously cowardly and timid in Wangjia Village, why is she so sharp-tongued today?Are the previous rumors true?But it is unbelievable that a weak woman beat up a group of gangsters and narrowly won in the end.

If Lin Guoxiang knew what was going on in Fifth Uncle's mind at this time, she would probably break out in a cold sweat again. Fortunately, what she did was not too obvious, otherwise she might be caught and burned.In fact, the rumors Fifth Uncle heard were exaggerated. There were only four or five people who beat Lin Guoxiang yesterday, and she was beaten quite severely, but not as severely as those people.

The faces of the village chief and his son were already ugly, but when they heard Lin Guoxiang's words, they were so gloomy that water dripped out.Even Mrs. Qian and her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Shen, who had no energy and kept silent by the side, were full of anger, especially Mrs. Shen, she hadn't settled with them for the matter of Lin Guoxiang and Xiucai cutting off her fortune. !
Wang Jincai was so angry that he almost didn't jump up. The village chief narrowed his eyes and stared at Lin Guoxiang like a poisonous snake for a second, then suddenly stretched out his hand to stop the angry son of one Buddha who was born and two Buddhas who ascended to heaven, and asked in a deep voice Scholar: "Wang Hao, you are a scholar after all, how can you let a woman come out and be careless, you are really an embarrassment to a scholar!"

Xiucai frowned slightly, feeling extremely displeased, thinking that the village chief was just looking for trouble.What does it matter if you are a scholar or not and your daughter-in-law?There are so many scholars in this world, is it true that those who have read can't talk to their daughter-in-law?And he didn't think there was anything wrong with what Lin Guoxiang said, it was just that he was a little less polite relatively speaking.

On the other hand, Lin Guoxiang couldn't bear it anymore and said: "Whether I say anything or not has nothing to do with whether my husband is a scholar or not? You are clearly at fault but you still drag my husband by force and want to bully us!"

"You, you, you..." The village head was angrily yelled at "you" several times by Lin Guoxiang, "Why do you interrupt a woman when a man talks, like a country shrew who doesn't know the rules !Humph!"

Lin Guoxiang was furious, if it wasn't for the many people around here, she would have rushed over and strangled the shameless village chief to death.Damn, I've seen a bully, but I've never seen a bully like this. It's clearly my fault, but I'm blatantly blaming others for it!She regrets it now, if she knew this was the case, she should have painted a few turtles on his face and stomach, making him a complete joke!
When Xiucai heard the village chief scolding Lin Guoxiang, a cold light flashed in his eyes, but the next second, he quickly lowered his eyelids to cover it up, and when he raised his eyelids again, he had regained his usual clarity.He looked at the village chief and asked in a calm voice: "Village chief, just say what you want today."

His patience was completely worn out by the village chief and his son, so he simply asked the village chief what he wanted to do.

The village head originally thought that Xiu would apologize to him in a soft voice like before, and then asked him to forgive their husband and wife, but he asked him very calmly what he wanted, and he was stunned for a while. up.On the contrary, when Wang Jincai looked at the scholar, there was a look of madness in his eyes. He poked the village head's arm and motioned him to speak.

After being reminded by his son, the village chief came back to his senses immediately, a stern look and complacency flashed in his eyes: "Nothing, I just want you to apologize to us!"

"I don't agree!" The village chief spit out these four words loudly, "If we apologize, it means that all the mistakes are ours, but we are not wrong!"

The scholar's words made the surroundings calm down a little, and the discussion sounded again, chattering and buzzing.

"If you don't apologize, get out!" The village chief couldn't help but swear, and after he finished speaking, he finally felt relieved. He expected Dingxiu to beg him not to drive them away in front of everyone. , because he did not have a certificate issued by himself to prove that he did not settle down.As for buying land to build a house to live in, it is even more impossible. Everyone knows how poor Wang Hao is, and how can he have the money to buy land when he can't support people?After cleaning up the scholar today, are you still afraid that he won't listen to you in the future?

The village chief thought very well in his heart, but this wishful thinking was wrong. After hearing what he said, Xiucai grabbed Lin Guoxiang's sleeve and left without looking back.
