I know the cause of this incident, and I also know that most villagers on both sides support the abolition of such regulations, including the township heads on both sides.
So the problem now is to bring the two township chiefs to the table. Only in this way, maybe this matter can be reversed.
After a very long silence, I finally said to Patriarch Liu: "Patriarch Liu, I have an idea here. I wonder if Patriarch Liu is willing to listen to it?"
Patriarch Liu frowned slightly, raised his hand and said, "Come and listen."
Look, I just said it, they want to solve this matter more than I do, otherwise why are they still here listening to all my nonsense?
I smiled and then said: "This requires Patriarch Liu to come with me. Let's go to Patriarch Zhou together, and we can sit down and have a good talk."
Unexpectedly, Patriarch Liu waved his hand without even thinking about it: "No way, if we want to talk, we have to ask the person named Zhou to come here to find me!"
It can be seen that his attitude is very determined, the kind of determination that will never give in.
I also feel that Patriarch Zhou is probably so determined, but no matter what, I have to give it a try.
After a moment of silence, I said to Patriarch Liu: "That's it! I'll go find Patriarch Zhou and invite him to come to you. Do you think that's okay?"
Patriarch Liu sneered: "Yes! As long as you can call him here, I promise to have a good talk with him."
Just like that, I took the car to Shuanglong Township to find the Zhou clan leader.
I don't find it troublesome at all, because I believe that as long as this matter is resolved, it will bring huge benefits to the two townships.
I even have a better way that can bring benefits to both villages.
But I never expected that when I arrived at the house of Patriarch Zhou in Shuanglong Township, I would see so many people surrounding the house of Patriarch Zhou that it was so overwhelming.
And I know all these people, they are all villagers of Yulin Village, and they are led by Cheng Xiaohu.
Before I understood what was going on, I saw an elderly man in the village stand up and say: "Clan Chief Zhou, our Qinglong Township and your Shuanglong Township have always been in harmony with each other. Now the two boys in our village have made a mistake.
We agree, but the person you captured is not from our village, so please hand him over!"
Patriarch Zhou smiled disdainfully and said: "Old man, people from your village drove tractors into our territory in Shuanglong Township. You know the consequences. Now you come to ask me for someone, do you think it should be right?"
The old man was not in a hurry and said in an orderly manner: "The person you captured is not from our village. He doesn't understand the rules. If you let him go, we will naturally educate him."
Patriarch Zhou still gave a bitter smile: "I think no one in your village, including all of you in Qinglong Township, is as good as that kid! Do you know what he came to do when he broke into our Shuanglong Township? Do you know his purpose?"
At this time, Cheng Xiaohu, who had been hiding, stood up.
But it can be seen that he is obviously a little nervous: "Clan Chief Zhou, of course we know the purpose. This is actually what we came here for today. I hope we can coexist peacefully. There is no need to make it so ugly, don't you think so, Patriarch Zhou?"
"Shut up, you have no right to speak here!" Chief Zhou prevaricated Cheng Xiaohu, and Cheng Xiaohu had no choice but to shut up.
The old man continued: "Clan Chief Zhou, since you have said this, I would also like to express my position on behalf of all the villagers in Yulin Village. I support this approach! Villagers on both sides of the village should live in harmony and work together to get rid of this problem.
A land division system that has not changed in decades.”
Patriarch Zhou shook his head and sighed: "What's the use of your agreement? Can it represent the entire Qinglong Township? Can you, Patriarch Liu, agree?"
The villagers began to discuss
This is indeed not decided by the people of a village, so what if the old-timers in the village come forward?
Patriarch Liu is the core figure. As long as Patriarch Liu comes forward, the problem can actually be solved.
I stopped watching from the edge and immediately rushed into the crowd and stood in the middle of both sides.
I raised my hands and shouted, "Everyone, everyone, listen to me."
When the villagers in Yulin Village saw me appearing in front of them intact, they were all a little surprised and shouted to me.
I nodded to them to indicate that I was fine, then turned to Clan Chief Zhou and said, "Clan Chief Zhou, I have already gone to see Clan Chief Liu and told him about this matter. He expressed great interest."
Hearing my words, Patriarch Zhou relaxed his brows and asked, "Really? Then why didn't the others come?"
I said in a deep voice: "Clan Leader Liu hopes that you can go to his place and sit down with him to have a good chat about this matter."
Hearing this, Chief Zhou's face suddenly darkened again, and then he said coldly: "So, he doesn't want to come to my place anymore?"
Just when I didn't know how to answer, Patriarch Liu's voice suddenly came from outside the crowd: "Old Zhou, long time no see!"
When I heard Patriarch Liu's voice, I even thought I was hallucinating.
how can that be possible?
Wasn't he so determined before? Why did he suddenly appear?
I immediately turned around and looked outside the crowd
Everyone was seen moving out of the way, and it was really Patriarch Liu who was here.
I was both excited and surprised, because I really didn't expect him to come, and seeing that he was still wearing typical national costumes, it was obvious that he took this matter very seriously.
"Old Lao Liu, you" Patriarch Zhou seemed a little surprised when he saw this.
Patriarch Liu came over, took the initiative to extend his hand to Patriarch Zhou, and said with a smile: "Old Zhou, you are fine!"
The hands of Patriarch Zhou and Patriarch Liu were held together. In fact, that moment represented that the decades-long grievances between the two townships were wiped out at this moment.
It should have been like this a long time ago, because these children and grandchildren should not be responsible for those things, and they should not happen.
Patriarch Zhou also laughed and asked Patriarch Liu, "Have you agreed to reorganize the land?"
"Why can't you agree? Don't you think what he said makes sense? We should have broken this smelly rule long ago!"
Patriarch Liu's words immediately made the blood of everyone present boil. After a burst of discussion, everyone responded: "Yes, Patriarch Liu is right, this is so unfair to us farmers!
"That's why it's unfair that we, the younger generation, should be responsible for the mistakes made by the older generation!"
"Yes, it's unfair, we have to protest"
Everyone began to agree, and the crowd's voices kept rising and falling.
At this time, Patriarch Zhou waved his hands vigorously and shouted: "Everyone! Please calm down first and listen to what I have to say."
Everyone gradually became quiet, and Patriarch Zhou pointed at me and loudly said to everyone: "Actually, what this little brother said to me yesterday is really what each of us thinks, but we don't dare to say it.
We have been aggrieved for decades, but I admire this little brother very much. He did something that none of us dared to do. He used his bravery and wisdom to stand up for all of us. That's it.
This is worthy of my respect!"
Before Patriarch Zhou finished speaking, Patriarch Liu also echoed: "Yes! I was also surprised when he came to me today to talk about this matter. He is the first one who dared to stand up and speak in so many years. I, Mr. Liu,
I admire it too!”
Everyone started chatting again, and the comments I heard were all praising me.
At that moment, I really felt like I was being haloed, but what I did was not to become famous, but to speak for all the villagers.
