Madam is right

Chapter 121 021. Story
Hearing what the old village chief said, Mo Zhichu felt an indescribable sense of grief in his heart.

After hearing Xu Hongan's words, the villagers outside the door began to whisper again after a brief silence.

Mo Changjian waited patiently.

The uneasiness and panic on the faces of the villagers all fell into Mo Changjian's eyes.

Mo Changjian suddenly discovered that perhaps Yanghai Village, which has not had any problems for many years, is actually just a flat boat on the sea.

After a long time, Xu Renyi, who had previously led the villagers, stepped forward, and Hong Sheng said:
"Since the general said so, let's not be coy, I'll talk to the general, but there is a condition, Xu Hong'an must stay with everyone. Do you agree?!"

Mo Changjian turned his head to look at the somewhat old village head, and saw Xu Hong'an nodded slightly.

"Okay! Just do as you say!"

After speaking, Xu Hong'an went straight forward and handed himself over to the angry villagers, while Xu Renyi handed the torch to the people around him and walked into the village chief's house.

"Brother Xu, sit in the room!" Mo Changjian then invited Xu Renyi to the main room.

But at the beginning of Mo, when no one noticed her, he ran to the kitchen in a hurry.

At this time, Hong Po was sitting alone by the stove, holding an embroidered handkerchief and silently wiping her tears.

Mo Zhichu stepped forward and carefully held Hong Po's no longer tender hand.

Only then did Hong Po feel frightened, and raised her eyes to look at the person in front of her.

Seeing that it was Mo Zhichu who came, Hong Po wiped away the tears on her face, put on a smile instead, squatted in front of Mo Zhichu, and said kindly:
"What do you need, young master? Will the young master be satisfied with tonight's food?"

Mo Zhichu nodded: "Grandma Hong's cooking is delicious!"

When Hong Po heard this, she smiled and touched Mo Zhichu's head.

"Why did the young master come to the kitchen? The kitchen is dirty, let's go out and sit?" Hong Po said and wanted to pull Mo Zhichu out, but Mo Zhichu did not expect her.

"Grandma Hong, do you have any difficulties with the village chief's grandfather?"

Hong Po was taken aback for a moment, then smiled relaxedly: "What's the problem? Don't worry, young master."

Maybe it's because she is still young, maybe she is still a child who doesn't understand anything in Hong Po's eyes, but when Mo Zhichu looked at Hong Po, who was obviously in prison at this time, smiling and comforting her, her heart There is an indescribable distress.

"Grandma Hong, Chu'er is not a child who doesn't know anything. If you really have any difficulties, you might as well talk to Chu'er. Maybe Chu'er can help you?"

Hong Po stared blankly at the little foreigner who was carved in pink and jade in front of her, and then thought of the folks and neighbors she had lived with for decades, and she would be lying if she said she was not sad.

When a person is vulnerable, even a word of comfort is enough to make him emotionally collapse.

Hong Po stared at Mo Zhichu in a daze, letting the tears flow to her eyes little by little, and then burst out again.

Seeing Hong Po's dazed look at the beginning, Mo Zhichu stretched out his little fat hand to wipe Hong Po's tears, and whispered:

"Red lady don't cry!"

But the more Mo Zhichu was like this, the more Hong Po couldn't hold back her tears. Hong Po, who had been crying silently just now, crouched on the ground like a complete collapse, covering her face and crying bitterly.

Mo Zhichu just accompanied her quietly, embracing this kind grandma with his still young body, and comforted her with his little hands on the back of Hong Po.

After a long time, Hong Po gradually stopped crying. She raised her head, still smiling, and touched Mo Zhichu's face:
"Young master is a kind person. Would you like to listen to grandma's stories?"

Mo Zhichu opened his clear eyes, looked at Hong Po's eyes that were cloudy due to old age, and nodded.

Hong Po sat on a stool beside her, hugged Mo Zhichu in her arms, and said softly, as if she was coaxing her little grandson to sleep:

"More than ten years ago, Yanghai Village was still located on Yanghai Mountain. At that time, our old man was the only teacher in the village, and was elected by the villagers to become the village head of Yanghai Village.

Ever since the old man became the head of the village, one of the things he said to me most often was that when you become the head of the village, you have a responsibility. No matter how bad your life is, you can't let the villagers have a bad life.

Then one day, the imperial court ordered the entire village of Yanghai Village to move to the foot of the west mountain of Yanghai Mountain.When they first heard the news, none of the villagers agreed.

They all said, if we move the village, how will we live?The imperial court didn't give us some silver, so we just moved down and slept in the wilderness?At that time, grandma thought so too.

But the old man said, what the court needs, we will do our best to do it.Our Yanghai Mountain is going to make room for the military camp, and Dayu's army exists to protect the entire Dayu. If we can't contribute at this time, who will be willing to protect us in the future?
Later, the old man talked and persuaded each family, and finally got everyone to agree to move to the foot of the mountain.

Fortunately, at that time, your father was also thinking about us, which allowed us to have a house that could shelter us from the wind and rain once we moved down the mountain.

However, many problems only appeared after moving down.Everyone found that moving to the foot of the mountain made it more difficult than ever to communicate with the outside world, because there were no new mountain roads, and everyone had to go around the entire Yanghai Mountain to get out.

In this way, it is not easy for everyone to go out, and they cannot often go to the city to buy things. At the same time, it is also difficult to sell the crops.At that time, everyone really could only rely on the food grown by themselves, and there was no spare money to buy what they needed at home.

Later, the old man discussed with me that we would buy some needed things for the villagers at our own expense and sell them to everyone at the lowest price.

Grandma used to be a stable woman in the village, and she has saved a lot of money over the years.The old man said so, and grandma naturally supported him.So it was done.

But, no matter how much money Grandma has, she will run out one day.Over the years, our family has been unable to make ends meet, and our own life is really difficult.Seeing that the life of the villagers has improved, I raised the price at the stall on my own initiative.

I didn't expect..."

As she spoke, Hong Po's tears fell again.

Although Mo Zhichu had guessed early on that there must be something hidden in it, she never expected that the hidden thing in it would be like this.

A great person is always hidden and silent in the world, but such a great person cannot escape the slander of gossip in the end.

Mo Zhichu was a little touched, looking at the crying red woman in front of him, he didn't know how to comfort him.

It is not that simple to solve this matter, and blindly helping people will definitely not work.

It's just that at this time, I don't know how the old father's talk is going.
