I Was Called a Poor Widow, But I Relied on My Supernatural Powers To Fight Back In Ancient Times

Chapter 467 Breaking the jar

Hearing Bai Yunsong's tone of giving up, several people were stunned. They wanted to rely on Bai Yunsong, but they would not break up until the last moment.

Unexpectedly, Baiyun pine was directly blown up by them.

Originally, I just wanted to force him to help collect food donations with him, but I didn't want him to give up. Since Bai Yunsong became the official, the villagers like them have indeed received benefits.

If they change someone, they can't guarantee that the next one will be better.

"Li Zheng, what do you think you are doing? Let's just say this, don't we really depend on you? We just want you to work harder and help us raise some more rations."

"Yes, let's just say that, how can we really go to Li Zheng's house to eat? We are also forced to have no choice. The old and young in the family are all waiting for food with their mouths open."

“The little food we raised last time has been used up a long time ago. We were hoping that the thieves would be caught and the food recovered, and everything would be fine. Isn’t there nothing we can do?”

Bai Yunsong looked at them coldly. No matter how they lowered their attitude to please and said soft words, Bai Yunsong did not give them a good look and just waved his sleeves.

"I'll say it again, I don't care about your business. Whoever likes to do this position of Li Zheng, I won't do it anymore. Since I became the Li Zheng, I have been busy working from dawn to dusk for you every day to help you solve your problems."

"I have never taken care of my own affairs. I have done so much, but not only do you not appreciate it, but I also let you blackmail me. It is really the most ridiculous thing in the world."

Hearing Bai Yunsong's angry tone, several people lowered their heads and looked at their toes. The atmosphere was silent for a while before someone raised their head and looked at him cautiously.

"Don't be angry, Li Zheng. Our close brothers don't have any surplus grain, but there are many families in our village who have surplus grain. If it doesn't work, we can borrow it, right? We'll pay it back during the next summer harvest."

Hearing the man's tone, Bai Yunsong was stunned and looked at them with a dark face.

"Don't try to play tricks on me again. In this world of ice and snow, who is not at home? Whose family has plenty of food, and they all have to barely survive?"

"Why is Li Zheng so forgetful? The family with the most food surplus in our village is your cousin, the aunt of the Bai family. Their family opened so much wasteland last year, and it was a great harvest. There is no one in the village who can compare to her family. There is more food left."

"That's right. Look at the big yard where they live. If there is no food, no one will believe it. We don't ask for anything else. We just ask Li Zheng to help us borrow some food. We will be sure to harvest it next summer. Pay it back and never default."

　　If you don’t help them raise donations, you will have to borrow food.

 Although this is not the result they want, it is better than having no hope.

Bai Yunsong frowned after listening to their suggestions. He thought about the situation of his cousin's family. It was indeed as they said, a family with surplus food. He also knew this.

But why do these people confidently ask him to borrow food?

“Heh~, you guys are really imaginative and dig holes for me. Did you discuss the countermeasures before coming here? If this road doesn’t work, just try another one. You are really treating me like a fool.”

 You bastard, if you think he is stupid and ask him to borrow food, who will pay it back?

He has seen enough about the virtues of these people in the past two days. If he refuses to pay back next year, won't he be burdened with debt in vain?
