The whole village is starving, but I have a full warehouse of meat in the mall

Chapter 13 Let the children at home taste the meat
"I don't believe you!" Aunt Wang rolled her eyes. "If you have money to buy meat, you might as well save it to buy a few more pounds of grain."

"Mrs. Ye is right. She is such a spendthrift woman. She has no food to eat and her children are suffering as a result..."

As she spoke, she swallowed hard. The smell of meat from next door made her saliva water. After the autumn harvest, she would take a few pounds of grain to the town to exchange for half a pound of pork so that the children at home could taste the meat.

Ye Sishan rushed into the yard quickly and saw the brown steamed pork with rice flour in the pot at a glance. His saliva flowed uncontrollably.

Jiang Wan whispered, "Sishan, Xiaofang, if there is anything delicious at home in the future, don't tell anyone outside, understand?"

Ye Xiaofang nodded desperately: "No, I won't tell anyone!"

Ye Sishan also nodded repeatedly, "Mom, I promise I won't tell anyone."

If this gets to my uncle's ears, he will definitely come and take away all the meat in the house.

Jiang Wan picked up a piece of steamed pork with chopsticks, blew on it, and stuffed it into their mouths: "How is it? Is it tasty?"

Ye Xiaofang swallowed it all in one gulp, not tasting anything at all. She licked her lips and said, "Mom, I want to eat more..."

"You little greedy cat." Jiang Wan laughed, "Go call your brother back for dinner."

Ye Xiaofang turned around and ran out.

Jiang Wan asked Gu Xiaohui to serve the steamed pork with rice flour and then simmer the white rice.

She called Ye Dahe in: "I remember you seem to be able to do some masonry work, can you build another small stove over here?"

Put two pots on one stove, use the broken pot to cook rice and the new pot to cook dishes. This can save a lot of effort and firewood.

Ye Dahe worked as a bricklayer apprentice in the town last year, so he did know a little bit. He immediately went to the riverbank at the door to pick up a few stones, then went to the backyard to dig up loess, added water to mix it into mud, and began to build an earth stove according to Jiang Wan's instructions...

The rice in the pot was cooked, and the aroma of meat and rice filled the house.

At this moment, Ye Xiaofang came back in a panic: "Mom, it's bad, my second and third brothers are quarreling with others..."

Jiang Wan suddenly felt tired.

How come these two guys are so capable of getting into trouble?
Before she could say anything, Ye Dahe threw away the stone in his hand: "Let's go and see who dares to bully my brother!"

"Stop!" Jiang Wan called him, "Stay home and build the stove. I'll come back to check it."

She walked out.

When naughty kids fight, it is natural for the parents to step in to resolve the issue. Letting the eldest child go will only exacerbate the conflict.

Ye Sishan led the way in front and explained the situation.

The one who was quarreling with the two boys was Wang Dashan, Wang Daniu's biological father. Both father and son were idle ruffians in the village.

It was obvious that Wang Dashan was deliberately making trouble for her two sons because of the rabbit he failed to get yesterday.

So Erhai and Sanshu suffered an unexpected disaster.

Jiang Wan walked to the entrance of the village. There was a well there, which was the only well in the village that was still producing water. People lined up to draw water all day long.

At this moment, Wang Dashan and the two boys from the Ye family were fighting, and half of the village was here to watch the fun.

"Wang Dashan, you've really lived your life in vain. Why are you picking on two half-grown boys?"

Wang Dashan spat, "I am protecting the interests of the whole village. These two guys carried more than a dozen buckets of water back home late at night yesterday, and today they are queuing up to get water again. Do they think the water in the village is blown in by the wind? Their family uses more water, while other families use less. Why should they get all the benefits?"

There are three wells in Lotus Village.

There is a well at the head of the village, a well at the end of the village, and a well at the head of the village. But now only the well at the head of the village is still producing water, and no one knows when this well will dry up.

Most people in the village line up to fetch water during the day, but there are also several households that come to fetch water at night. There is no fixed amount of water each family fetches in a day, and no one stipulates that after fetching water at night, they cannot come to fetch water the next day.

Everyone saw clearly that Wang Dashan was clearly looking for trouble with the two boys from the Ye family.

Ye Erhai gnashed his teeth and said, "The head of the village didn't say anything, why don't you allow us to fetch water?"

Wang Dashan sneered. He kicked over the bucket at Ye Erhai's feet and said, "Why? Because you used too much water and delayed everyone's business!"

The bucket rolled down with a gurgling sound.

Ye Sanshu rushed towards Wang Dashan like a calf.

Wang Dashan grabbed him by the collar and raised his hand to punch him.

"stop!"

Jiang Wan's cold voice sounded.

The crowd naturally made way for Jiang Wan to pass through.

She pulled Ye Sanshu back and put him behind her: "Are you going to openly bully us orphans and widows?"

"Who can bully you?" Wang Dashan sneered, "You f*cking snatched a fat rabbit weighing three or four pounds from my son. If you dare to snatch something from my son, don't blame me for not allowing your family to use water!"

Jiang Wan sneered: "Your son of the Wang family is allowed to steal other people's things, but others are not allowed to take them back?"

"That rabbit was found and caught by my Sishan. In order to snatch the rabbit away, your Wang Daniu scratched Sishan's wrist and tore his clothes. I haven't even settled the score with your Wang family yet, and you dare to kick over my bucket?"

Wang Dashan is lazy and has a very bad reputation in the village.

After Jiang Wan said this, some people followed suit.

"That's right. A few days ago, Wang Daniu snatched a bunch of wild vegetables from my grandson."

"Last year, Wang Daniu and his gang stole cabbages from my field and I caught them several times. This kid is just like his father and has not learned his lesson."

"Sister Ye used to only know how to throw tantrums and curse, but today she can actually speak so fluently."

"No matter how reckless Sister Ye is, she is still a mother. What mother doesn't protect her child?"

"..."

Being pointed at by the villagers, Wang Dashan became angry and said, "Ye Jiangshi, don't think I won't beat you just because you are a woman!"

Jiang Wan thrust his head forward: "Come on, smash it here! My eldest brother smashed my head the other day, and I asked him to pay me a chicken and a few pounds of meat. I know your Wang family is poor, so I'll pay you a few pounds of rice."

"Hurry up, stop wasting time, just smash it. If you smash it harder, you will have to pay a few more kilograms of rice and it will be over."

She took a few steps forward, and Wang Dashan retreated uncontrollably.

He had a bad reputation in the village, but Ye Jiang's reputation wasn't very good either, so he dared to openly cause trouble.

As long as the villagers don't side with Ye Jiangshi, he has the ability to bite off a piece of meat from this woman.

Who would have thought that this woman would not play by the rules, first she spoke with reason and then suddenly she became angry and offered her head.
If he really smashed this woman's head, being scolded by the villagers would be a small matter. The main thing would be to pay compensation for grain, and his family had no surplus grain.

But this woman is used to acting like a spoiled brat. If she were to hang herself at his doorstep, he would be doomed.
