Chapter 550 Pull down the old face and beg him
"Come back as soon as you come back! What's so strange about this?" the village chief asked puzzled.
"The point is, the old man actually brought back three outsiders, one woman and two men, who are now at our house."
"What? Three outsiders?"
Hearing this, the village chief was taken aback immediately, with an expression of disbelief on his face.
Shocked, he suddenly raised his hand, grabbed Gui Zhi's wrist, and asked with a high voice, confirming: "You said that the old man brought three outsiders into the village, and now they are at our house?"
"Yes!" Guizhi gritted his teeth, nodded solemnly, and twitched the corners of his mouth in disdain, "I don't know what ecstasy soup was given by these three people when the old man went out this time, and he actually brought them in .And these three outsiders seem to be uneasy and well-intentioned, and they are definitely not good people."
"Father, you must not let the old man be confused, and leave these three outsiders behind in a few words. If they are uneasy and kind, and bring disaster to our village, it will be terrible."
Preconceived, and before the village chief saw the old man, Gui Zhi stopped him and tried to sow discord.
After the shock, the village chief's face turned gloomy, "I have my own discretion in this matter, a woman's family, don't interrupt, hurry up and cook your meal."
He was very upset, and immediately took out the patriarch's pie, stared at him, and said angrily.
Gui Zhi looked a little embarrassed, blushed, bit the corner of her lips, and said in a low voice, "Father, I understand."
Then, with her head lowered, she obediently followed behind the village chief and walked into the yard together.
The village chief was in a particularly depressed mood, so he rushed into the back room almost angrily, with quick steps.
Opening the curtain and taking a look, sure enough, there were three strange outsiders present.
This time, the village chief's face became even more gloomy.
Suddenly a person rushed out, everyone was unprepared and slightly startled.
Then, the old man got up first and hurried over to greet him, "Village chief, that's great, you're back."
While speaking, he took three steps and made two steps, and stood in front of him.
The village chief's expression was very gloomy, and his angry gaze, after moving away from Ji Xiaoyou and the three of them, turned around and landed on the old man again.
For the first time, I spoke to him in a very harsh tone, and said, "Old man, have you forgotten all the ancestral precepts of our village? Or are you confused? How can you just give outsiders to you?" How about bringing it into the village?"
"Village chief, don't get angry, let me explain to you."
He had expected this kind of reaction from him a long time ago, the old man lowered his voice a little bit, bit the bullet, and opened his mouth with a nice word.
"Explain what?" The village chief looked at the old man with disappointment and shook his head. "In the village, no matter how you say it, you are highly respected, but how could you do such a thing?"
The old man lost his face a little, and pushed him to the west room, "Okay, I will explain it to you clearly. Don't come here in front of the children, and I will tell you."
While speaking, he pushed the village chief out.
Looking at this scene, Ji Xiaoyou frowned slightly.
But who knows, at this moment, she suddenly saw Gui Zhi approaching the stove with her head poking her head, and quietly put her ear on the crack of the door, trying to eavesdrop.
Although she deliberately wanted to hide her whereabouts, Ji Xiaoyou could see her actions clearly through the gap in the door curtain.
Immediately, Ji Xiaoyou's gaze sank and sank.
Is this woman so idle, with no housework to do?You have to be sneaky and stealthy to listen to the bottom of the wall.
What about Er Ya, doesn't she need to take care of her?It's really enough.
After the old man pushed the village head into the Westinghouse, Ji Xiaoyou and the three of them had no way of knowing how they talked with the village head.
Now all they can do is wait patiently.
……
Westinghouse.
"Brother, calm down, don't be so excited, can you listen to my explanation?"
After no outsiders were present, the old man looked at the village chief and spoke in a low voice, with a very low posture.
How could he not know how absurd his behavior was in the eyes of the villagers and the village head.
So, the old man had thought about it early in the morning, and he had to talk to the village chief and ask for it.
Looking at the old man's appearance, the village chief was slightly taken aback.
The two of them grew up together since they were young, and for so many years, their relationship is like brothers, extremely deep.
Although the people in the village called him "Old Man", in fact, his status in the village was only inferior to the village chief.
It can be said that it is definitely highly respected.
After so many years, it was the first time he saw him showing such a humble expression.
"Oh! Why are you bothering?"
After sighing, the village head's expression finally eased a little.
However, the tone was still heavy, "I didn't mean you, this time, why are you so confused? How could you bring these three outsiders in?"
"Village chief, the thing is like this." The old man said, "When I went shopping yesterday, I was accidentally stolen. It just so happened that Ji Xiaoyou passed out at the time and was rescued by Ahu and Ali. In order to repay the favor , she let us stay. Then, she helped us catch the thief. If it wasn't for her, we villagers would never get back the surplus money we have saved for so many years."
When he heard that the money was lost, the village head was shocked, and his expression changed again and again.
Their small village is self-sufficient, and the food and various crops and livestock they grow are already good enough to maintain food and clothing.
With great difficulty, the money was saved and used to buy some daily necessities that they could not produce in their village.
If the money is lost, the villagers must be frantic.
Even he, the village head, couldn't explain to everyone, let alone the old man who lost his money.
After hearing that the money had been recovered, the village chief heaved a sigh of relief.
At the same time, I also understood a general idea.
It turned out that these three outsiders were kind to the old man.
but……
After twitching the corners of his lips, the village chief asked again in confusion: "But even if this is the case, shouldn't you bring them back?"
"Don't worry, just listen to me and continue to tell you."
Then, the old man explained in detail how Ji Xiaoyou's three brothers and sisters were chased by their enemies, their house was completely burned down, and they had nowhere to hide.
After the words fell, the village chief was silent for a long time.
After a while, she had guessed the old man's intentions and plans.
But he still asked again uncertainly, "Do you want them to settle down in our village from now on?"
Hearing this, the old man nodded truthfully, "Yes."
"No, no!" Hearing this, the village chief shook his head like a rattle, "The rules of our ancestors must not be broken. Our village absolutely cannot accept outsiders."
"Old brother!" The old man called him anxiously, "Rules are dead, but people are alive. Anyway, the three brothers and sisters of Ji Xiaoyou have kindness to us. Now, they are in trouble, and they are ready at any time. It is possible to suffer from a catastrophe. Could it be that we just ignore death?"
"If you don't repay your kindness, if you just stand by and watch, are we still human? Is that what our ancestors taught us?"
The more the old man spoke, the more excited he became, his face flushed immediately.
"But...but...the village head had a sad face, his brows were knotted into a knot, "Even if I agree, but think about it, can the villagers tolerate them?" "
"It depends on the joint efforts of the two of us. I believe that where gold and stones come, gold and stones open. Let the three of them stay first. After a long time, the villagers will definitely be persuaded."
The old man took a step forward, and after a pause, he changed the topic, "Anyway, I have already brought people in now. It is definitely impossible to drive them out. Because once they leave, the entrance of the village may be They will be exposed. Those people are in the village now, can't you kill them?"
Things have come to this point, in desperation, the old man had no choice but to play both soft and hard ways.
The village chief's pupils frowned fiercely, and his eyeballs stared and stared.
Finally, he raised his hand and nodded helplessly at the latter, gritted his teeth, and said in a helpless tone, "You, you will cause me trouble. Just make a move and kill them first, not to force me to keep them ?"
"Brother, I'm sorry!" The old man smiled embarrassedly, "I have observed that these three people have very good personalities, keeping them here may bring a new atmosphere to our village. Woolen cloth."
"Oh! It's too easy for you to think." The village chief shook his head without optimism.
"With the deep-rooted thinking of our villagers, how could they accept them easily? Forget it, now that the problem has been solved, it won't help to blame you. The only way now is to put them away for the time being. Get settled. Then, think of other ways."
Seeing that the village head was finally relieved and agreed to settle down Ji Xiaoyou, brother and sister first, the old man heaved a sigh of relief, "Thank you, old brother."
"Okay, let's stop biting our ears and go out quickly."
The village head glared at him, dissatisfied.
Then, the two walked out one after the other.
At this time, Gui Zhi was almost completely stuck to the door panel.
However, it was a pity that she could only vaguely hear voices speaking.
However, what the two inside said was completely inaudible.
At this moment, without any warning, the door was suddenly pushed open.
Guizhi became unsteady, lost control of his center of gravity, staggered, almost fell, and bumped towards the village chief straight up.
Seeing this, the village chief frowned and pushed her, "Guizhi, what are you doing? Why don't you cook?"
With the shrewdness and eyesight of the village head, he naturally saw that his daughter-in-law was eavesdropping through the door.
Immediately, he was displeased with her.
It's just that, due to the presence of outsiders, he, the father-in-law, is embarrassed to teach his daughter-in-law directly.
Gui Zhi looked embarrassed, and nodded hurriedly, "Okay, okay! Dad, I'll do it now."
