Chapter 23 The grain can only be sold to you in part
"It looks like it's a joy to look at."
As soon as the little woman said this, the others stared at Jiang Zhilan and Chen Zhicai, who was resting not far away, strangely.
It's been a month or two, and it's really hard to say.
For a while, everyone's faces were different, and their eyes were explicit as if they wanted to stare Jiang Zhilan out of a hole.
Jiang Zhilan's face was complicated, and he touched his lower abdomen with his hand.
Pregnant... The child of her and Brother Chen is the child of her and Brother Chen!
Thinking of everyone's ridicule of her since the beginning of this month, Jiang Zhilan's eyes slowly became firm.
God is really helping her, and she must use this child to marry Brother Chen.
"What, there it is!" Zhou came back to his senses and said in shock.
Zhou said in a panic: "Oh, what's the matter, my daughter hasn't married yet, can't you bring a small oil bottle." β
Jiang Zhilan was thinking about how to attract Chen Zhicai, and there was a 'kind' aunt who covered her mouth and smiled.
"How can it be regarded as a drag oil bottle, your family Zhilan is blessed, the child in her belly is Chen Xiucai's first child."
Someone covered his mouth and whispered: "That Chen Xiucai's mother, the Li family, has long wanted a golden grandson, and she has to recognize this child." β
"Chen Xiucai asked for our girl's body, and she is pregnant, but it can't be sent away with a few hundred catties of food." Several women kept persuading Jiang Zhilan for the reason of being upset.
Zhou thought about it too, although their family asked for 200 catties of grain from the Chen family before, but it was just an apology for him to ruin her daughter's innocence.
This is pregnant, which is another price.
"Yes, I have a good girl, who can be sent with 200 catties of grain!"
As he spoke, Zhou pulled up Jiang Zhilan, who had already relieved himself, and stood up.
The women watching the play next to them also hugged Zhou and Jiang Zhilan and walked in the direction of the Chen family.
The Jiang family sat not far from the crowd and saw that the people in Jiangjia Village were making a fuss again.
Sun is a very lively person, as long as she doesn't look at her own liveliness, then she is indispensable everywhere.
But this is like this with the people in the village, and it's not good to watch the excitement in the past now.
"What's going on?" Sun said as he stood up and looked into the crowd.
Sun looked around, and finally pulled Jiang Zhiyue and said, "Yue girl, let's go, let's take a look at the excitement." β
Seeing Sun's enthusiastic appearance, Jiang Zhiyue did not refuse, and walked with her strength.
β¦β¦
After watching the excitement, Sun took Jiang Zhiyue's arm back again.
When I came back, I couldn't help but share what I had just seen.
"Didn't you see it, just now Zhou took her daughter to Chen's house to make trouble, just that Chen Xiucai's house."
"Jiang Zhilan's girl is pregnant, and she has just been seen by Xixi."
ββ¦β¦β
"That girl is almost out of breath crying, so she still can't blame Chen Xiucai."
"Oh, that's pitiful, it's distressing to see."
"Originally, when the Li family heard that Jiang Zhilan was pregnant with a child, her eyes were straight, but she didn't let go, saying that her son's wife already had it, and if Jiang Zhilan wanted to enter the door, she had to be a small one."
ββ¦β¦β
Sun's mouth kept talking, and Balabala made it clear what had just happened.
Jiang Zhiyue looked at it and felt that she was about to show the excitement of just a few mouths with one mouth.
"Then the Zhou family agreed like this?"
"That's definitely not, and in the end, I asked for a bag of grain from the Chen family." Sun continued: "I think the Li family is waiting to hold the golden grandson, if the girl is not a male baby, I don't think there is a good life." β
Jiang Zhiyue listened to what her second aunt said, and thought of Jiang Zhilan's superb acting skills just now, so she had to say a word of admiration.
If Jiang Zhilan hadn't glared at her when she was crying, she would have almost believed it.
But what surprised Jiang Zhiyue the most was Chen Zhicai's reaction.
As cold-blooded as in the original book.
It was Chen Zhicai's mother Li who just agreed to Jiang Zhilan's entry into Chen's house, and Chen Zhicai didn't say yes or disagree.
But in the name of caring about Jiang Zhilan, he said that he was afraid that she would suffer on the way to escape from the famine with a big belly, so he asked her to abort the child.
But in the end, he was stopped by his mother.
Li Shi has been waiting to hold his grandson for I don't know how long, this is finally one, how can he agree.
Jiang Zhilan was naturally unwilling, she originally planned to use the child as a bargaining chip to marry Chen Zhicai, how could she agree to abort the child.
So when I heard Chen Zhicai say that she should let her drain the child, she pretended to be moved.
said on his lips: "I know that Brother Chen feels sorry for me, but this child is Brother Chen's flesh and blood, how can I give ...... Woooooooo β
Jiang Zhilan couldn't wait to pout when she cried.
Li was afraid that if she cried too much, she would hurt the child in her womb, so she hurriedly said that she would enter the door as a concubine.
Jiang Zhilan agreed after pondering.
Although being a concubine doesn't sound good, she is the first woman to enter the door for Brother Chen.
Besides, anything can happen on the way to escape the famine, and it's hard to say whether Brother Chen's fiancΓ©e is still alive.
She's already close to the water.
Jiang Zhiyue and her second aunt came back at this time, and I don't know what will happen later.
In one noon, Jiang Zhilan changed from the daughter of the Jiang family to the concubine of the Chen family.
After resting for a while, everyone stood up again and hurried away.
Wang Fengshou, who was walking in the middle, walked a few steps quickly and caught up with Jiang Yuchao.
"Brother Yu Chao, where are there mountains or relatively large forests around here, the water we brought out is almost running out, we have to find a place to replenish some water."
In everyone's hearts, Jiang Yuchao is the most knowledgeable person, and this matter can only be asked to him.
Jiang Yuchao, who was asked, thought about the topographic map in his mind, and remembered that there was indeed a mountain range on this part of the map.
But it will take two or three days.
He said: "Yes, yes, but it will take two or three days at the latest, how much water do we still have?" β
Hearing the affirmative answer, Wang Fengshou smiled: "There is still water left, and I can save a little in these two days and last two more days." β
"That's good." Jiang Yuchao said with a smile.
It may be that I have walked farther, and the number of pedestrians I encountered on the road has gradually increased.
There are very few people in groups, but more often than not, families come out alone.
However, they are not in good condition, their lips are chapped, and their faces are red from the sun.
His cheeks were emaciated by hunger.
Seeing a large number of people coming, the eyes of those pedestrians lit up.
For no other reason, the cart they pushed seemed to be full of food.
Some people were hungry and red-eyed, and their eyes couldn't stop wandering on the carts of Jiang's family and the villagers behind.
However, seeing that there were so many people in Jiangjia Village behind, he shifted the target to the Jiang family.
They are a little less numerous, and they have the most stuff.
At first glance, there were not even twenty people, but there were three ox carts and three carts.
Their eyes flickered like hungry wolves on their prey.
Jiang Hengrong watched from behind, and immediately slowed down.
Since they don't want to come back, let them suffer a little.
When their food was about to be robbed, he took the people of the village to attack.
He didn't believe that the Jiang family could still hand over the grain without gratitude.
The rest of Jiangjia Village was nervously watching the pedestrians who appeared in front of them, for fear that they would rush up and grab them if they were hungry.
So I didn't notice that Jiang Hengrong slowed down.
The Jiang family and his party had already pulled out the knife that was covered by something in the car.
Everyone looked around warily.
After one experience, they weren't so flustered.
On the contrary, the people of Jiangjia Village and the nearby homeless people were frightened and stopped when they saw that they were each holding a knife.
Many homeless people were frightened back, but after walking a short distance, they still met people who wanted to 'seek wealth and danger'.
Several waves of displaced people gathered together, and in a short time there were nearly thirty people, all men.
Some people had large knives in their hands that they had found out of nowhere, but more often they were holding kitchen knives and sickles.
After seeing that the people in the village behind and the family in front of him didn't seem to be together.
They looked at the Jiang family with fierce eyes.
The homeless people gathered together looked at the Jiang family's team with fierce eyes.
There was greed and desperate ruthlessness in his eyes.
There were even a few people staring at Jiang Zhiyue up and down.
In addition to the small group of people gathered and the people from Jiangjia Village behind, there were only scattered people who were far away for fear of harming themselves.
"Hand over your food." A middle-aged man with five big and three thick looks blocked in front of the Jiang family and his party.
Jiang Yuchao and Jiang Yuqing stood in front, their eyes were not afraid at all, and they directly rejected them with actions.
"We don't embarrass you, you can leave a cart of grain, but we want the rest of the grain and that girl." A man who had never left Jiang Zhiyue said.
The man added viciously, "Otherwise, we will have both men and food." β
"If we wait for us to catch it ourselves, it won't be a matter of a woman!"
"Hahaha, I see that the three old ones are also good-looking, didn't there be a big belly sitting on the ox cart just now? Catch that one and give it a good refresh to the brothers. β
Several men were talking meat words in their mouths, and they didn't pay attention to Jiang Yu who was placed in front of them at all.
Although the Jiang family and his party all had knives in their hands, the more than 20 people gathered didn't pay attention to them at all.
There are a lot of old and weak women and children, and the remaining men don't look like they can fight.
Eighty percent of the knives in their hands came from.
Jiang Zhiyue was uncomfortable stared at by the greasy and disgusting eyes of those men.
Her expression was sharp, and her spiritual power quickly shot over like those men who were full of meat.
"Ahhh My head...... My head hurts. β
The people who had just spoken more and more explicit and ugly were all kneeling on the ground at this moment.
His hands clenched into fists and kept tapping his head.
"Help, my head, don't bite me, don't bite me!"
A few others lay on the ground and rolled incessantly, scratching the skin with their hands.
Jiang Zhiyue sneered, this should be the first big gift for them.
She had just attacked them not only with her psychic powers, but also created a little illusion for them.
Seeing them lying on the ground crying and rolling around, the depressed mood just now was much better.
She took a small dagger from her bosom and walked over slowly.
Some of the people who were still standing in good condition looked at the "new brothers" rolling on the ground, and then looked at Jiang Zhiyue, who walked over calmly.
Somehow, I suddenly felt a little stunned.
The man who had just shouted took a step back.
He raised the kitchen knife in his hand to Jiang Zhiyue to give himself courage.
"Stop, don't blame me for going any further!"
Jiang Zhiyue didn't give him a look at all, what she had to deal with now was all this garbage lying on the ground!
Seeing that Jiang Zhiyue was still walking forward, the man endured a trace of fear that inexplicably rose in his heart, and rushed forward with a knife.
As a result, before she could get close, Jiang Zhiyue kicked him out with a kick.
After the man flew upside down, a chubby little boy ran over crying, "Daddy, Daddy, are you alright?" β
Seeing Daddy's gasp in pain, the little boy rushed over like Jiang Zhiyue like a little calf.
"Chubby, come back!" The woman who was helping the man up saw her son rushing towards Jiang Zhiyue, and she was shocked into a cold sweat.
The little boy was as tall as Jiang Zhiyue's thighs, and he bent over and pushed his head against Jiang Zhiyue.
"You bad woman, you actually bullied my father!"
Jiang Zhiyue was about to teach a lesson to the few people who had just come out of the dirty mouth, when she saw the little boy rushing over.
Her favorite thing on weekdays is a child who looks soft, so she didn't be cruel to him.
She raised a hand and grabbed Chubby Dun's head to stop him from moving forward.
However, the little fat man's two hands kept turning forward like a perpetual motion machine, trying to hit her.
Jiang Zhiyue looked up in the direction of the man and the woman, and said expressionlessly, "I haven't come here to take him away." β
The man hurriedly pushed the woman and told her to bring the child back quickly.
After the little fat man was taken away, Jiang Zhiyue looked at the remaining people who were stunned and asked, "How many of you, do you want to get out of here yourself or I'll help you." β
A few people walked to the side with interest, but there were still a few people who were holding the weapons in their hands and staring at Jiang Zhiyue's movements by mistake.
"There are a lot of us, no matter how powerful she is, she can't beat so many of us, let's go together."
The rest of the people were heartbroken and said: "Yes, let's do it together, catch this dead girl in our hands and exchange it for food, and if there are a few fewer people, each of us can get more food!" β
Several people surrounded Jiang Zhiyue in the direction of Jiang Zhiyue.
But before they could do anything, they were kicked out one by one.
But it was obviously much harder than when he kicked the man who was covered in flesh just now.
After several people fell to the ground, they spit out a few mouthfuls of blood, which was shocking to watch.
When Jiang Zhiyue cleaned up the others, she didn't notice that the time for her mental power to work had suddenly arrived.
The few men who were still lying on the ground screaming just now glanced at each other, picked up their knives and stabbed Jiang Zhiyue in the leg quietly.
Jiang Zhiyue couldn't dodge and was torn by those people.
"Hiss~"
Jiang Zhiyue took a light breath of cold air, and noticed that the head of the sickle in a man's hand had cut through her skin, and she even planned to go deeper.
Jiang Zhiyue's face sank, she was really careless, she actually let them succeed.
She quickly retrieved the injured leg, then snatched the man's scythe and stabbed him in the thigh.
"Ahh!!hh How dare you little bitch ...... Ahhh β
Hearing the screams blurted out, Jiang Zhiyue didn't stop, but pulled out the knife and stabbed it in again.
It wasn't until the insulting sound in his mouth turned into a non-stop begging for mercy that Jiang Zhiyue let him go and tortured the next person.
The others watched Jiang Zhiyue's brutal 'torture' of those people, and they all took two steps back in fear.
The first man to be thrown out and the few who took the initiative to quit swallowed hard.
It's terrible, it's terrible.
She must have shown mercy to me just now.
While Jiang Zhiyue was teaching these people a lesson, the people who wanted to catch her and blackmail the Jiang family to give food also secretly ran away.
But before running, he glanced at Jiang Zhiyue fiercely, how bad intentions were to look at that gaze.
After Jiang Zhiyue returned to the Jiang family, she saw the backs of those people who had just left in a hurry.
But she didn't have time to pay attention to them now, for she had just walked back when she was dragged by her grandmother and mother into the ox cart.
Seeing that the injury on her leg was not so serious, the two breathed a sigh of relief, but they still cleaned the wound for her and bandaged it quickly.
But the crowd outside was obviously not as calm as they were.
The hearts of the people in Jiangjia Village recalled Jiang Zhiyue's 'atrocity' just now.
She dared to stab someone with a knife, they were originally waiting for Jiang Zhiyue to come out, and they never thought that things would evolve like this.
They still think...... I still thought that the Jiang family would not give them food again, so they planned to use coercion.
However, Jiang Zhiyue dared to enter with a white knife and come out with a red knife.
If they threaten Jiang Xiucai's family, will they also end up like those people!
In an instant, many people dispelled the matter of cooperating to force Jiang Xiucai's family to hand over the grain.
Save a little food, and their food can still last for a long time.
But there are also people who think of the key point.
Jiang Zhilan, who had been waiting for Jiang Zhiyue to be dragged away by those men, was very unhappy at the moment.
She pretended to be surprised and said, "Ah, Sister Zhiyue, they all have knives in their hands, so the two extra carts of things they have won't be ......."
"Maybe it's to rob others, and sure enough, the family is crazy, and they even rob the life-saving food at this time." Mrs. Wu took the opportunity to answer.
Hearing this, the eyes of many people looking at the Jiang family and his party became strange.
I didn't expect Jiang Xiucai's family to do such a thing when they looked friendly to people on weekdays.
After dealing with these people who stood in the way, the Jiang family planned to continue leaving.
Although Jiang Zhiyue only had a small cut on her leg, Mrs. Jiang didn't want her to walk.
In desperation, I had to sit on the wheel.
Just as they were about to leave, the man who looked like he was five big and three thick who had just been kicked away by Jiang Zhiyue walked to the Jiang family's ox cart with his wife and children.
It just so happened that the ox cart that Jiang Zhiyue was sitting in was the first one, and when she saw the man who stopped again, she wondered if she had just started too lightly.
The man saw that Jiang Zhiyue's face suddenly turned cold, and he knew that she had misunderstood, so he hurriedly said with a smile.
"This girl, can you sell us some food, our family hasn't eaten for a day, and please be kind."
Seeing someone taking the lead, some people who were just far away also tried to take a few steps forward.
Looking at their pleading expressions, Jiang Zhiyue's heart softened a little.
Anyway, the two truckloads of grain they got were also a burden, so it was better to sell them to them.
She has infinite space but can't do anything, and now that she has encountered it, if it is not too much, she is not unwilling to help.
Jiang Zhiyue looked around and found that there were only a few people left.
Together, there were less than forty of them, and they all looked miserable.
They all looked at her earnestly, just like the man who had just spoken.
It seems that Jiang Zhiyue's next answer is crucial.
This is indeed the case, not only those passers-by were waiting for her answer, but even the people of Jiangjia Village, who were deliberately separated from the Jiang family for a short distance, leaned over after hearing it.
This food, they still think that Jiang Xiucai's family can give it to them!
If the girl really agreed to sell the grain to the homeless, what would they do!
Jiang Zhiyue hesitated for a moment before she said in embarrassment: "Although we have a lot of food, we also have a lot of family. β
Hearing this, those who looked forward to it thought that there was no hope, and their eyes dimmed.
But the peak loop is so fast.
Jiang Zhiyue continued: "So the grain can only be sold to you partially. β
