Chapter 229
Frightened by the knife in his hand, several villagers took a few steps back in a nonchalant manner.

"Zhu Laizi, you are not the only one who has the final say on the affairs of the village. There are only a few of you, do you really think everyone is a soft persimmon?" A villager bravely stood up, but what he said was a bit harsh.

Usually, even if the villagers have conflicts, quarrel and fight, if there is no deep hatred, who would use a knife?Even if Zhu Manizi didn't do anything, just holding the knife in his hand, it made the honest villagers feel timid.

"Never mind soft persimmons and hard persimmons, I don't believe there are things that the knife in my hand can't chop."

Zhu Laizi pressed forward step by step, and the villagers retreated again and again.

The howling cold wind brought icy snowflakes down densely, and after a while, the few people present were covered in gray snow.

I don't know who has a sensitive nose, and sneezed several times on the spot, so frightened that several people hurriedly brushed off the snow from their bodies.

There is no way, since knowing that the snow is poisonous, he has lost his life because of it. This snow has become a tombstone in the hearts of the villagers, and no one dares to touch it easily.Every time I come out, I am ready to fight, and I don't want to touch it directly with my skin.

Even Zhu Manizi had heard about it even though he had not returned to the village not long ago.Immediately, he didn't dare to underestimate him, and started shaking the snow off his body.

After shaking, he didn't want to be exposed to the snow for too long, so he pointed a knife at a few villagers and said arrogantly: "Don't think about what's there, even if the village chief can suppress me for a while. , It can’t be suppressed for a lifetime. I want to punish a person, and there are many methods. If you are not afraid, let’s wait and see. See who is proud of it in the end. Brothers, let’s go. Go back and have a good rest. Tomorrow we have to go a lot of homes Go collect protection money."

Zhu Manizi took the people away, and several villagers stood on the ground and looked at each other: "Are you still going to the village chief's house?"

"Go!" a villager gritted his teeth and said, "If we let Zhu Mangy over our heads this time, we can only let him do his best in the future. As long as the village chief speaks out, I will go all out and fight these grandsons to the end. "

His ruthless appearance infected everyone.Although they were afraid of the knife in Zhu Laizi's hand, they dared to come forward to find the village chief, but they were still a little bit bloody after all.

Several people went to the village chief's house and told the village chief what Zhu Manizi had said.The village chief was really furious.He even announced that these pests would be driven out of Chitose Village.

Li Xiangye looked at his old man worriedly, and wanted to persuade him not to be so excited.This Zhu Laizi has never been a good person, the old man used to be young and strong, and it would be no problem to crush a Zhu Laizi.But now he is also getting older, and worrying about it during this time has made him a few years older for no reason.In addition, Zhu Manizi is not alone, if it really angers them, what kind of insidious means are they afraid to use?What if the old man suffers?
But I also hated Zhu Manizi and the others in my heart, so I didn't persuade them in the end.Instead, he tidied up, dressed properly, and walked towards the compound.

"Aunt Xiangye? She's a rare visitor, come in quickly!"

When Lin Bao opened the door, he was slightly surprised to see Li Xiangye.Quickly let people in.

When Li Xiangye entered the main room, she realized that it was not unreasonable for the villagers to be jealous of the life in the compound.Look how warm the room is!

The people in the compound will be fine now, they are gathering in the main room to enjoy the fire.Have a ride or not a chat.Seeing guests, he quickly got up, let those who sat down give up their seats, and poured tea for those who poured tea.

Lian Yao was lazily lying on the sofa, leaning against Wu Qingfeng to take a nap, holding Serena in her arms who was also dozing off like her.It wasn't until Li Xiangye came in that she sat up dazedly.

"Aunt Xiangye?"

Li Xiangye was not surprised to see Lian Yao like this.Rural people have nothing to do in winter. They either get together to play cards and talk, or doze off when they are idle.

"It's not a coincidence to come today, it disturbed Lian Yao's sleep, right?" Li Xiangye said with a smile.

Lian Yao wiped her eyes in embarrassment, while Wu Qingfeng's eyes showed tenderness, and he smoothed her hair gently.

Qi's mother brought up a plate of green beans that she fried herself, and rescued Lian Yao: "You came at the right time. This will really make her sleepy, and she should not be able to sleep at night. Try it, it's according to our I don’t know if the stir-fried green beans that I’m used to in my hometown are suitable for your taste.”

Li Xiangye tasted one and looked at the plate of green beans in amazement: "Your green beans are also fried with bamboo shoots? It's different from ours. We just fry them with salt, and the fried beans are all crunchy." .You guys are much more particular, you put a lot of things in, and it’s not dry, just like cooking. It’s fine to serve as a dish.”

Qi's mother smiled and replied: "Marinate with five-spice seasoning first, then stir-fry in the wok, add ingredients, and fry until half-dry and then out of the wok. People in our hometown like to drink rice wine, with this kind of green beans. It's very tasty."

"I have to learn from you. The old man in the family also likes to drink a few sips of wine, and it's not so easy to get drunk with this." Li Xiangye thinks that the taste is quite good, and he really wants to learn, not out of politeness.

Qi's mother hurriedly humbled: "It's good that you don't dislike it. This thing is easy, and you can learn it after I say it once."

After the two of them had finished exchanging information on how to do Qingpidou, Li Xiangye looked at Wu Qingfeng expectantly and said his purpose for coming here.

"Qingfeng, although you left the village early, you should remember the name Zhu Manizi, right?"

Wu Qingfeng raised his eyebrows: "I remember."

Zhu Manizi has been a fool since he was a child, and he has become hated by everyone and hated by dogs.I used to see orphans and widows in their family, and they even came to fight the autumn wind.Wu Haiyue didn't want to cause trouble, so she let him succeed twice.Wu Qingfeng was holding his breath, but at that time he was still young and couldn't beat him.And my mother is still there, and nothing happened to Master Yao. He has a stronger personality but is not as cold as he is now.

Fortunately, Zhu Manizi left the village not long after.Otherwise, even if he can't beat him, he will try to trick him once.Tell him not to dare to bully you again.

Seeing Wu Qingfeng talk, Li Xiangye breathed a sigh of relief: "It's not that the days outside are sad, have many people who went out come back? This Zhu Manizi also returned to the village a while ago. Not only he is alone, but he also brought a few angry people with him. I heard that he was a gangster before, and I'm afraid these people are also gangsters with him."

Speaking of this, she glanced at Wu Qingfeng.Wu Qingfeng also brought back a lot of people, but they were very upright when they saw it, and I heard that they were all soldiers, so the people in the village didn't worry so much.

Seeing that Wu Qingfeng didn't move his eyebrows, Li Xiangye continued: "You know that Zhu Mangzi is not a good person. When he first returned to the village, he forced the person who rented his land to pay the price of rice last year for a year. The rent was paid back with food. But he brought back so many people, how could that little food be enough for them to eat? No, today he threatened the people in the village, saying that he would collect protection money and force every family to pay for it every month. Give them [-] catties of grain. Otherwise, they will look good to them. People in the village came to your uncle, and your uncle has a bad temper, so he wanted to drive him out of the village. To tell you the truth, I had no choice but to come here. .Who is Zhu Manizi? You are in a hurry, and you can go in and out with a knife. I am also worried about your uncle's safety, so I came to trouble you. In this thousand-year-old village, you are the only one who can support your uncle. .If Zhu Manizi and his gang are allowed to run rampant in the village, the people in this village will not have a good life in the future."
