Chapter 278 Unanimously Disliked
s she thought of how Xiaochao had struggled to get over the mountain to find her, Fang Jinshi felt a pang of pain so intense she could barely breathe."Silly girl," he said, his eyes reddening again as...Your family only had Zong Hu working hard alongside everyone else for a few days digging the canal. Then he got hurt and couldn't come anymore, so your eldest and third sons also stopped coming.
"You guys are treating this whole digging-a-water-channel thing like a joke, aren't you"
Grandma Wu waved her hands repeatedly, "Oh my, digging a water canal is a big deal for the whole village. How could our family make such a fuss just for fun"
Village Head Wang let out a cold snort. Fang Jinshi saw that the village head was so formidable this time, it seemed like she didn't even need to make a move, there was no room for her to shine.
So I might as well stand aside and watch the excitement with the villagers.
Finally, there was a time when the spotlight wasn't on the Second House. Let Wu Lao Tai and Liu shi enjoy being the center of attention for once.
Getting a drink from the Shui family ancestral home isn't easy.
Last time she almost got killed by the big boss, it seemed like it was over. But she's not a graduate of the Sacred Heart Academy, so why should she just let them off the hook
Why do the people in old houses always cause trouble for others Feng shui takes turns, it's time to change positions.
Is it too much to say that she's subtly adding a bit of trouble for the old house family in terms of drinking water
Since your family head, Zong Hu, got injured and stopped coming, no one from your family has participated in digging the irrigation canal.
“So, you guys are just ignoring what I said before You think those words were just wind I told you, if you don't dig the canal when there's no water, you won't have any when it rains. And that wasn't a joke.”
When Old Madam Wu saw that Village Head Wang's face was very serious, as if he meant it, she became a little anxious.
"But Brother Wang, even though no one from our family came later, at least we participated, right"
She was afraid that the village chief would really cut off their water supply, racking her brains for a reason.
Beside her, Mrs. Liu suddenly said, "My son Ping Kang's wrist was injured later on, so he couldn't come."

"Yeah, yeah, the boss got hurt too. My third child has always been sickly, you know"
"Don't push us to our limits!"
"It's just digging a few water canals anyway, besides, Zongyu is still my grandson."
Village Head Wang knew that Old Wu was being unreasonable. He said angrily, "Zongyu and your family have long been separated, now they are separate households, it doesn't count!"
"Forget it, forget it, arguing with you is pointless." Old Mrs. Wu simply refused to reason. Anything unfavorable to their family was dismissed by her.
Wang, the village head, had already learned this lesson long ago.
He pointed at the villagers standing beside him, "You don't believe what I said Alright, if you want to drink water, ask the folks here if they agree or not."
"Don't other families have people who get injured or sick while working on the aqueduct every day"
"There's a long river, their family only has him and his mother. His mother is bedridden, unable to move. At just fifteen years old, he still insists on going up the mountain every day to work."
"I just want to know, with so many people in your family, how difficult would it be for one person to insist on digging the water channel every day"
Wang, the village head, was really angry. Even if Old Zong just put on a show and had someone from his family follow him up the mountain every day, that would be better than nothing.
He'd rather sweep things under the rug, but with so many conflicts piling up day after day, he just couldn't resolve them.
Kanzong's family has gone too far this time. After Zong Hu was injured, he never came up the mountain with anyone following him again.
If he were to let Old Mrs. Wu fetch water, it wouldn't be fair to the villagers at all. Even if he was willing, the villagers wouldn't agree.
As soon as Village Chief Wang finished speaking, the villagers were already filled with indignation and shouted angrily.
"Don't let them drink! Why should they get to drink water just because they don't work"
"The irrigation ditches are what we dug!"
"No, don't let them drink! Don't let them have any!"
Fang Jinshu was quite pleased, nodding approvingly. Compared to the faces of Mrs. Wu and Liu Shi, flushed red and white with anger, she was more than happy to see this outcome.
If you have to blame someone, blame the fact that this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are simply too "good" in their daily lives, which has made everyone in the village surprisingly dislike them.hu has been quite busy. The winter food reserves are almost enough, but the mountain villa is still the most important. Every day, Li Muhua and the others have to work overtime under hard labor.To spe...
