Parents are busy farming

Of course, the most aggrieved person was the family of the elder from the second clan.

There is also a story unknown to outsiders, which is related to Zhou Dalin's sister.

Back then, Zhou Dalin's sister was sent to the village by the trafficker, and the grandson of the second clan's hometown took a fancy to her first.

It even went so far as to negotiate the price with the trafficker.

It's just that Zhou Dalin's aunt happened to see her niece when she was passing by.

While she was angry with her brother, she quickly went to find out more.

Knowing that it was a child from the second clan's hometown who fell in love with her, she immediately went home to find a nephew with good conditions. After asking for advice, several people pooled their money to buy her niece.

Of course, her family's behavior of cutting off beards made her family members of the second clan very angry, but she also had a reason for it.

The biggest reason was that she knew that this second-generation hometown had a tradition of beating and scolding the newly bought girls.

Even that family has lost several such girls, and the status of the surviving women in their family is very low.

How could she send her niece into a pit of fire?

What's more, if the niece is at home, she can not only support her, but also have more say in the family. Why not get the best of both worlds.

Of course, because of this incident, an irreparable conflict arose between the second clan elder and the family where she currently lives.

Because the elder of the second clan was the brother of the clan leader, he was used to being favored by others. This was the first time someone resisted him and snatched away someone he liked, which made him a little uncomfortable.

So I always hold a grudge.

But because Aunt Zhou Dalin's family has a prosperous male population, everyone in the village is very courteous.

It was a draw between the two parties.

This is why the second clan elder had such a big reaction when he knew that Ye Zifen had asked Zhou Dalin and the others to come here as intermediaries.

Of course, the two families will definitely be at odds again today, but this time the clan leader is obviously leaning towards Ye Zifen.

Naturally, he would not be satisfied with this different treatment from the past.

Ye Zifen was led by the clan leader to his house. After a few people sat down, they had a detailed discussion on the transaction of medicinal materials, grain, and prey.

However, since the second clan has always been an important figure in the entire village, and now all the prominent people in the village are in the clan leader's house, it is not easy to just get rid of him at this time, so someone called him over shortly after they sat down.

When he came with a cold face, Ye Zifen had already discussed the specific matters and details of purchasing medicinal materials with several people in the clan.

After all, the roads in their place are really not easy to travel. If you want to get these things out, you still need people from their village to do it.

After all, they were already familiar with that kind of environment. It wasn't that the people in the caravan couldn't do it, but Ye Zifen didn't think it was necessary.

But Ye Zifen quoted them a reasonable price. Of course, it also meant compensation in this regard.

Everyone present was very satisfied.

Before the clan leader could say anything, the elder of the second clan walked in with a cold face, and even gave Ye Zifen a special look when he came in.

Ye Zifen naturally saw that look, and also saw the threat and indifference in that look.

However, she did not feel scared, and the smile on her face became even brighter.

"How's the conversation going, brother?"

After the elder of the second clan arrived, several people next to him gave up their seats to him, and he took the opportunity to sit in the seat closest to the clan leader.

By coincidence, Ye Zifen was sitting on the main seat opposite him.

The patriarch cleared his throat and said with a smile: "We have almost finished talking. Miss Ye gave us a very reasonable price. And Miss Ye also promised to sign a long-term cooperation agreement with us. You came just in time, Miss Ye has already written the agreement Okay, take a look too."

Then he handed a few pieces of paper to the elder of the second clan.

To be honest, when Zi Zifen proposed to sign the agreement, the calmness shown by the team leader and the others made Zi Zifen couldn't help but be impressed.

Because everyone present seemed to know the words, this was not an easy task.

It shows that this village was once a village with a lot of heritage, and of course she discovered it as soon as she entered the village.

But this village can still have so many people literate under such circumstances.

What does this mean? It shows that they attach great importance to this aspect.

This is not something that ordinary villages can do.

Just compare it to Lujia Village. It’s not that many families in the village can’t send their children to read and learn, but they never think it’s an important thing.

It is also because of the development of the caravan in the past two years that the children have learned a lot of words in their spare time during training, and they have the confidence they have today.

Otherwise, Lujiacun at this time should be the same as before, with most people unable to read a single Chinese character.

The elder of the second clan just took a few pieces of paper and scanned the words on them with his eyes.

My heart was pounding. I didn't expect that a little girl's handwriting could be both beautiful and powerful. It was difficult to write such strong and soft handwriting.

He became more determined in his thoughts.

"Brother, I took a look at the price written above and it is indeed quite fair. Since both parties have negotiated, let's just sign the agreement. After signing the agreement, shall we have dinner?"

The patriarch thought his brother had figured it out, so after taking the paper and signing it, he immediately said to Ye Zifen with a smile: "Shall we eat?"

Ye Zifen took the agreement that belonged to her from the team leader, folded it and put it in her sleeve.

Just while placing the agreement, he took out a small pill from his sleeve.

Holding it between two fingers, because the pill was small enough, the few people nearby didn't notice it.

Ye Zifen deliberately touched his head with his hand and yawned again.

With this movement, he put the small pill into his mouth.

She didn't settle down until she swallowed the pill again while drinking water.

Although she has a constitution that is invulnerable to all poisons, she plans to open the drug bottle later before an accident occurs.

She didn't want to be in a passive state.

Just as she finished drinking the water in her bowl, a beautiful woman came in to refill her tea.

It wasn't a big deal, but when the beautiful woman came in, her eyes were looking at none other than the old man from the second clan.

This made Ye Zifen have to increase his vigilance.

But she didn't show it on her face, and she even lifted the teacup to her lips and blew on it gently.

However, her eyes kept glancing at the elder of the second clan not far away, and she could clearly see the nervousness on his face.

I really don’t know if the people here are too stupid to think of people outside, or they have become stupid after not having contact with people outside for a long time.

The bad things are done so obviously.

In this case, Ye Zifen was not stupid. After blowing on the teacup, she put the teacup back to its original place.
