"You said that our group of people entered the village rashly without anyone familiar to guide us, so we wouldn't be kicked out by the locals directly, right?"
The village chief couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, so he took Old Man Shu and talked about his worries.
Old Man Shu yawned lazily and said consolingly: "Why are we afraid of this? We have the support of Master Zhizhou behind us, so we can be more arrogant when we attack?"
"No, no..." the village chief shook his head, "Zhizhou Mansion is far away from here. By the time he comes to support us, we will probably be beaten eight hundred times. It's better to be careful."
The next day, the village chief banged his broken gong and summoned the whole village for a brief meeting.
The main purpose of the meeting is to remind everyone to be careful in their words and deeds, and to try not to cause conflicts with local villagers based on the principle of not moving where the enemy does not move.
After the meeting, everyone followed the guidance of the enthusiastic people in the town and came to Xingfu Village.
When they arrived at the entrance of the village, a group of people were dumbfounded when they saw the desolate scene in front of them. This was different from what they thought!
The Happy Village they imagined was a wealthy and beautiful village with shady trees in front and behind the village, large brick and tiled houses next to each other on both sides of the road, and rows of crops growing vigorously in the distance.
No matter what, it can't be worse than Yaoshui Village.
But what is the fact?
Looking around, there are weeds and trees all over the place. The road leading to the village is unmanaged, and the thatch is almost taller than the people.
It was not easy to find two houses. It was easy to cut down, and the thatched houses were broken. They swayed back and forth when the wind blew, and they might collapse at any time.
"Liars, they are all liars!"
The village chief was so angry that he slapped his thigh, and just as he roared, an old coconut fell off his head and nearly broke his head.
Shu Changshun finally showed his filial piety and quickly took out the gong and covered his father's head.
As soon as it was covered, another coconut fell down. This time it hit the gong accurately, and it hit the gong with a loud "thud" that made stars appear in the village chief's eyes.
He shouted directly: "I'm just saying how can there be such a beautiful thing in the world, tax-free food and luxury houses, and co-authorship are all lies! Hei Dazhuang, he is a big liar!"
Doing the most immoral things with the most harmless face!
It pissed him off so much!
"So what should we do now? Go to the village or go back?" Old Man Shu rubbed his wrinkled old face and asked the question in his heart.
Old Mrs. Shu answered: "Of course we have entered the village. We have already come here. Let's go in and see what's going on. What if it's not as bad as we thought?"
"Wait a minute, let me calm down first."
Otherwise, he might not be able to control himself and hit someone!
The village chief squatted on the side of the road and rubbed his face up and down a dozen times. After rubbing several layers of ash off his face, he managed to control his emotions.
"Let's go in and ask what's going on!"
A group of people entered the village along a thatched path. After passing several abandoned houses, they finally found an inhabited house.
It was a two-room thatched house with the door facing south. There was a small yard surrounded by a fence in front of the house. An old man with white hair and beard was sitting in front of the yard sunbathing.
The village chief stepped forward and greeted the uncle: "Uncle, is this a Happy Village?"
The uncle was motionless and showed no reaction.
The village chief carefully leaned over and listened. There was no snoring, so did he fall asleep?
He was not sure, so he gently tugged on the uncle's sleeve, "Uncle, are you awake?"
The uncle smacked his lips and glanced at him irritably, "What do you want to do?"
The village chief took out Lin Changyu's autographed document and explained politely: "We are refugees who have just arrived in Qiongzhou and have been assigned to Xingfu Village. Is this a Xingfu Village?"
"What did you say?" The uncle picked his ears and asked loudly.
It turned out that his ears were not working properly. The village chief cleared his throat, raised his voice and repeated what he said before.
Uncle: "This is Happy Village. Happy Village does not want refugees!"
The village chief shouted at the top of his lungs: "Master Zhizhou asked us to come, it doesn't matter whether you want refugees or not!"
The old man held the chair and reacted for a long time. Just when everyone thought he was going to curse, he said "oh" and lay back down to sleep again.
Everyone: "???"
What does "Oh" mean?
The village chief was already suffocating in his heart, but when he saw the uncle's attitude, he lost his temper. He slapped the door and said: "I am the new village chief of Xingfu Village, appointed by Lord Zhizhou himself!"
Subtext: When you meet the village chief, you have to have some reaction, right?
As a result, the old man looked at him lightly again and said, "Oh, village chief, Xingfu Village has a new village chief, which is good."
After saying that, he closed his eyes again.
village head:"……"
Is this welcome or not? Why can't he understand?
In doubt, the old man spoke again: "Village Chief, do you have anything else to do? If you have nothing else to do, step aside to block my sunshine."
A wave of operations completely silenced the village chief.
Meeting such a person is even more uncomfortable than pulling someone over his head.
Old Man Tang couldn't stand it anymore and sighed: "If it doesn't work, let's go back and ask Lord Zhizhou what he means."
At this moment, a voice came from behind the crowd: "What do you want to do in Xingfu Village?"
Looking back, a middle-aged woman wearing a dark blue coarse cloth jacket and a headscarf was standing under the tree and looking at them.
Mrs. Shu explained: "We are refugees from the north. We were assigned to Xingfu Village by Master Zhizhou. We just arrived and wanted to find someone to inquire about the situation."
"Oh, I heard someone say about this. If you want to know anything, just ask me. My uncle's ears are not good, so I can't explain clearly even if I ask him."
The woman has a cheerful tone and friendly attitude, and she looks like an easy person to get along with.
Mrs. Shu didn't show any politeness to her, she just put her arms around her and started shouting like "old girl, old girl."
"Sister, before we came here, Mr. Zhizhou told us that there are many empty houses in Xingfu Village. He asked us to find the old patriarch to divide the houses. Do you know where the old patriarch is?"
The woman pointed to the old man sleeping soundly at the door of the courtyard, "Here, the old patriarch of our village."
Mrs. Shu: "..."
After going around for a long time, I went back again.
They thought it would take them a lot of effort to live in their new home. Unexpectedly, after the old man learned of their purpose, he spread his hands and said: "House, there are three houses on this road to the east, four to the west, and one row behind.
There are six.
But two of them have collapsed. You can go and see for yourselves, decide which one you want to live in, and I don’t care if you divide it up as you like.”
The woman helped him make amends: "Haha, uncle is like this. He is old and doesn't like to move. You just wait, I will take you to see the house after I carry the things home."
Mrs. Shu quickly thanked her.
A group of people were waiting in front of the hospital. Not long after, the woman hurried back, followed by a little girl who looked like a black loach.
"Let's go, I'll take you to see the three houses to the east first."
The woman was very efficient in her work. She didn't say a word of nonsense and went straight to the topic when she came back.
Everyone followed her obediently to a thatched house. This was the first empty house, and it was also the dilapidated house they had seen before.
