Chapter 70

Seeing so many people coming to Wangjia Village, Mao Er and the others were a little weak, Wangjia Village is not like Jinxiu Village, where there are only a dozen families and dozens of people in total, and the number of villagers in Wangjia Village is the first among the twelve villages outside the northern city.

"Kill the thief!"

In this era, everyone is having a hard time, if you meet a thief again, if you are unlucky, you will let the thief steal your life savings, then there will really be a thought that it is better to die, so everyone hates the thief, the villagers of Wangjia Village came, saw the hanging tree Mao Da and the side scruples did not dare to move Mao Er and others, and suddenly felt relieved of hatred, these thieves are usually very cunning, and now they have not been caught, hatred and hatred, someone shouted to kill the thief, and suddenly everyone shouted.

Mao Er and the others are usually used to being overbearing and domineering when they have a lot of people, and they have always slipped away when they have stolen, and they have never been caught when they have encountered so many people shouting to kill them, not to mention that their boss is still hanging in front of them, and they dare not resist for a while, and they dare not escape, their faces are blue and white for a while, looking at the two villagers, they are very vigilant, if the villagers really rush up, they have to fight.

"Mao Wu, if we fight later, you will find a way to save the boss, and after saving the boss, we will run, don't stay." Mao Er quietly commanded Mao Wu to be flexible.

"Okay, second brother." The five Mao people watched the villagers vigilantly, ready to act at any time.

After the people from Wangjia Village arrived, Li Da pulled Wang Da to the side and muttered, saying Ye Lan's words, and after discussing with the two men, they made a decision.

"Okay, let's not be busy beating these people up for now, let's go get our own things back and see if there's anything missing." Wang Da stopped the villagers who were about to stir and asked everyone to go to the ground first to get back what belonged to them.

The villagers of Wangjia Village listened to Wang Da's words, and really obediently stepped forward, and took back their own from a pile of things in the open space, and there were many things to eat, flour and the like, but they couldn't tell who was who's house, but when it came up, it was not less, everyone tossed it, and came back to report to Wang Da, basically there was no missing thing, and some were leftovers at home, etc., generally speaking, it was very stable with Mao Er and others who took the initiative to explain before, which shows that they are not lying, and it can be seen that they attach great importance to Mao Da.

"We have returned the things, you can let our boss go, and we promise that we will not come to Jinxiu Village and Wangjia Village again in the future." Seeing that everyone had received something, Mao Er immediately asked everyone to let Mao Da go.

"I want us to let him go, dream." I finally grabbed the thief's head, how could I let it go so easily?

"You don't talk much." Mao Erqi.

"What is talking to a bunch of thieves? Besides, it's not the first time you've been a thief, believe it or not, we're handing over your boss to the shit village? Li Da snorted coldly.

When Mao Da and Mao Er and the others heard the three words of Shit Village, they immediately shuddered, thinking of the fierce people in Shit Village, their faces were embarrassed, and Mao Da opened his mouth,

"And what do you want?"

"We discussed it, let's not worry about you today, but we have to think about it before, and now I will give you three ways, one, you will return to us ten times the things you stole before, and this matter will be settled, two, we will send you to see the official, and ask the official to lock you all up, and third, all of you will work for our landlord for free for a month, and eat a meal at noon every day."

Let's talk about the first article first, they are a group of thieves who don't have anything, otherwise they don't have to steal things, and they will return it to others ten times, not to mention that they can't remember what they stole from everyone, even if they remember it, they can't afford to pay it back, and then say the second article, see the official, just kidding, I didn't do anything bad Ordinary old faces don't care about the official, let alone a thief?

Since ancient times, when a thief sees an official, that is, a mouse sees a cat, and is naturally afraid.

Without much thought, the first two were excluded by Mao Da, "On the third day, I will choose the third one." ”

"Let's listen to the boss." Mao Er stood up at the right time and expressed his willingness to listen to Mao Da.

"We all listen to the boss." Mao Er said, and his younger brothers also said.

The villagers of Wangjia Village took back their things, and they were a little less angry, they shouted to kill Mao Da, but they just shouted, everyone understands, no matter how much they hate these thieves, they can't beat them to death, but they just beat them, and they don't feel that it's fun, Wang Da and Li Da can basically speak on behalf of the villagers in their village, and now the two of them have discussed these three conditions, everyone has no opinion, Ye Lan is very good to everyone, now is the time when she needs manpower, let these thieves help do a monthly job for free, which relieves everyone's anger, can help Ye Lan again, why not?

Seeing that Mao Da and others were very interested in choosing to stay and work for a month, everyone was happy at the same time, but they were worried, these thieves were not at ease when they spoke, how could they ensure that everyone let Mao Da and them not run?

"Although we are thieves, we are also righteous and talkative, how can you do this?" Mao Da was still hanging upside down and uncomfortable, and now when he heard the villagers questioning, he was immediately angry, and he swore a poisonous oath.

"I Mao Da swear to the sky here, I volunteer to stay in Jinxiu Village to work for a month, if I run away in advance, or be lazy, I will be crippled for life, and I will not die well."

In this era, people attach great importance to the poisonous oath, and in everyone's heart, God is not allowed to blaspheme, so the oath must be obeyed, otherwise, the oath will be effective, so as soon as Mao Da's poisonous oath ended, everyone was stunned, and Mao Er and others were also, but they were used to Mao Da as the leader, after Mao Da made a poisonous oath, Mao Er rushed up and followed the swear, the oath was similar to Mao Da, and then, Mao Three, Mao Four, Mao Five...... The younger brothers in the field all stepped forward and swore a poisonous oath.

Mao Er and others, if they really want to run, everyone may not be able to catch it, but now, for the sake of the boss, they are willing to give up resistance, and even swore a poisonous oath for this, the villagers of Jinxiu Village and the villagers of Wangjia Village are all simple croppers, and they were aggressive under anger before, but now they see this group of thieves revealing to each other and not abandoning each other, which makes everyone a little moved.

"Put Mao Da down."

When everyone was moved, Ye Lan also walked out of the courtyard, and everyone swore poisonously, and she heard it.

"Little boss."

Seeing Ye Lan walk out, everyone shouted respectfully at Ye Lan.

Mao Da was put down, and looked at Ye Lan in surprise when he heard this, these people listened to a little girl like this? still calls her a small boss, so, the big boss, is it the girl who beat herself before?

"Mao Da, this is our host, since you have made a poisonous oath, you must abide by your oath, free for our host to work for a month, I hope you and your little brothers can work seriously, if you break your oath, even if you run away, it doesn't matter, but our boss knows the government people, you look, we all remember, if you run away, we will go to the government to report to the official, when the time comes, the whole city will be published, and you will not be able to stay in this northern land."

Mao's big eyes flashed, looking at Ye Lan, who was much shorter than herself, thinking of her previous actions, she was very taboo in her heart, and nodded,

"I naturally speak for granted."

"Boss ......" Mao Er and the others quickly surrounded them, and everyone was very angry when they saw that Mao Da was beaten into a pig's head, but now they are in a weak position, and they have just made a poisonous oath, so they can only endure it.

"Immortal, can you let me go?" Mao Da found that he still couldn't move, and Ye Lan didn't make any moves, so he had to ask Ye Lan for help.

"I'm not called a fairy, my name is Qiao Yelan, remember my name clearly, maybe these three words will occupy a very important place in your heart in the future." Ye Lan looked at Mao Da with a smile.

"Hehe, thank God, Boss Joe." Seeing Ye Lan stretch out his hand to his waist a little, Mao Da found that he could move, laughed dryly, ignored Ye Lan's words, and thought to himself, what does your name have to do with me, and I will return to the bridge in a month.

Because of the upside-down relationship, all kinds of reactions on his body made Mao Da extremely uncomfortable, he didn't know why Qiao Yelan couldn't move at his waist, and he didn't know why Qiao Yelan could move at his waist at all, in short, he didn't dare to treat Qiao Yelan as a child at all, he moved his muscles and bones, and felt much more comfortable, and then his face was a little hot and painful.

Covering his pig's face, Mao Da looked at Ye Lan, "Boss Qiao, when will we start work, we live a little far away from here, if you can trust us, let us go back first, we will move things over, build a shed here, and it will be more convenient to work in the future." ”

"Little boss, you can't let them go, I think it's good to let this Mao Da stay here, and let Mao Er and them go back to move things." Hearing this, Li Da hurriedly suggested Ye Lan.

"No need, you go back, come back after dawn, bring your things, and build a tent here." Ye Lan shook her head and rejected Li Da's suggestion, if Mao Da and the others were really trustworthy people, they would naturally come, if they didn't be trustworthy, they didn't even care about the poisonous oath, such people, they dared to come, Ye Lan thought that she was still not at ease.

After listening to Li Da's words, Mao Da was ready to stay as hostages, but he didn't expect Ye Lan to let them go so easily, "You're not afraid that I won't come back if I leave?" ”

"A person who doesn't even take a poisonous oath, if you dare to come, I don't dare to use it." Ye Lan glanced at Mao Da lightly, and didn't say it, if they dared to speak, she would always have a chance to take revenge in the future.

After such a toss, there was not much time left before dawn, Ye Lan waved her hand, "Okay, let's go back and rest, don't stay here, it's all gone." ”

In the past few days, everyone has long been accustomed to Ye Lan giving orders, and when they heard her say this, although some people felt that it was not good for them to leave like this, they all subconsciously obeyed, turned around and went home, and dispersed.

After only a few breaths, the people at the entrance of the village were astigmatized, and even the torches were not left for Mao Da and them, in the dark, only the sound of the wind was left with them, and after a long time, Mao Er found his voice,

"Boss, what are we going to do now?"

"Go home and move things."

"Boss, are we really going to work here for free for a month?"

"Manly man, my words are counted, but I swore a poisonous oath." Mao Da snorted coldly, "Don't you want to talk?" ”

"No, no, we follow the boss, and we will do whatever the boss asks us to do." The younger brother is convinced by Mao Da, even if Mao Da puts a P, it is all fragrant.

Everyone only made a poisonous oath and was afraid of breaking the oath, but they didn't know that Mao Da had a plan in his heart, their group of people wandered around the northern city, and the people had already become notorious in their hearts, and everyone had become more and more vigilant in the past two years, and it was getting harder and harder for them to steal things and not want to be caught, seeing that winter was coming, they didn't have a little food in stock, and if they went on like this, they would have to starve to death sooner or later.

Originally, tonight was considered to have gained something, but in order to save him, everyone returned their things, although they are now forced to work for Qiao Yelan for a month, but at least, there is one meal to eat every day, what to eat this month, don't you have to think about it for the time being?

As the boss, Mao Da, the big brother, is not casual, he thinks that others call him a big brother, he answers, he has to show the appearance of a big brother, even if he makes himself hungry, he has to find a way to let the brothers eat their stomachs, so when Li Da gave him three roads, he almost didn't think about Mao Da and chose the third way, not for anything else, just for that meal, even if he didn't swear poisonously, Mao Da agreed, and he would fulfill his promise.

I had an idea in my heart Mao Da took the younger brothers home to pack up their things and prepare to work in Jinxiu Village for a month, but she didn't know that Ye Lan entered the courtyard gate and did not go to bed immediately, but hid in the dark to observe Mao Da and his group, for these thieves, she was not defenseless in her heart, even if she saw Mao Da turn around with a group of younger brothers, she also observed in the dark for a long time, and made sure that they would not come back, so she turned around and went back to the house to sleep.

Because of the thief caught the thief the night before, the villagers all slept late, and the next morning, many people got up to the sound of roosters crowing, opened the door and looked, alas, it was raining.

"What a coincidence, yesterday the workers were on holiday, and it rained today." Watching the eaves dripping water, Qiao Zi sighed.

"I'll go to the vegetable field in a moment to see if my vegetable shed will leak." Ye Lan is very much looking forward to this rain, if it doesn't leak, she can go to customize the linen cloth and spread the rest of the vegetable shed.

"Even God helped us, knowing that we wanted to try the vegetable shed, there was a timely rain." Qiao Zi looked at God gratefully.

"Mother, you prepare breakfast, I'll feed the pigs." Stretching her waist, Ye Lan began to assign tasks.

"It's better for you to prepare breakfast, and feed the pigs." Qiao Zi smiled and pulled her daughter, "Mother is the adult, these rough jobs will be done by the mother, you just need to do some light work and give orders." ”

"The mother said that, but it will make her daughter feel guilty." Ye Lan chuckled.

"My mother is not from a rich family, and it is not that she can't do farm work, but my daughter has been pampered since she was a child, and she has never suffered hardships. Talking kung fu, Qiao Zi took the umbrella and rushed to the side of the pig shed, fortunately, when the poultry shed was built, there were some places specially set aside on the roof, so that when it rained, people would not be drenched in the rain.

Ye Lan watched Qiao Zi rush over, thought about it and walked to the kitchen, thinking that she was happy to give everyone a holiday yesterday, it was really a mistake, and next time she should stagger everyone, so that there will always be someone at home to help, otherwise like today, everything has to be done by their mother and daughter.
