Just like when they received the news that the Tang family had been convicted and wanted to return home, after dinner that day, the elders of Shanwan Village gathered at Zhang Lizheng's home.

Until the moon reaches the zenith, the candles in Li Zheng's house are still not extinguished.

"In my opinion, just do as Xiao He said." The oldest clan leader said.

The real name is Zhang Xiaohe.

But there are still a few clan elders who disagree.

"Isn't this offending people for no reason? The villagers will definitely not be happy."

"That's right, if you ask me, let them apply for the job at the Tang family anyway. Whether they can be selected or not is their own business. Why should we do such a thankless thing."

The clan elders were divided into two factions, each with its own opinions.

The reason for their argument was Zhang Xiaohe's proposal.

Zhang Lizheng suggested that if the villagers want to apply for jobs in the Tang family, they must first pass the test between him and the clan elders. Otherwise, even if they violate the village's rules, they will not be able to get involved in any good things in the village in the future.

Although Zhang Lizheng was young, he remained calm and did not change his mind in the face of opposition from elders of all clans.

"I am the Li Zheng chosen by everyone, right?" he asked lightly.

"Since I was elected by you, I can actually make the decision on some things, right? Last time, you heard that the Tang family came back because they were convicted, so you immediately brought people from each family to my house to put pressure. If you want me to never agree to take in the Tang family, then I agree and do it, right?"

An elder from the tribe said, "Who knows what is going on with them at that moment? If they make a big mistake, wouldn't they be hurting us?"

"Besides, their surname is Tang, not Zhang. Their son sold the house and land a few years ago. There is no place for them to stay in this village, and they want to leave."

Zhang Lizheng's face was full of annoyance: "But we didn't even take them in for one night! Thinking about it afterwards, I was wrong. You should also think about the past. When they lived in the village in the early years, they often treated illnesses and saved lives. Occasionally, If you have a headache and a fever, you go to his home for treatment, and you only get a fee for the medicine, but you never receive a consultation fee."

"After all, it is our village that has failed others!"

What he said made everyone blush.

"Hey, weren't you afraid at that time? How could you have thought of this." Someone said sarcastically.

Zhang Lizheng looked solemn, "It's precisely because our village made mistakes in the first place, but they still ignored the past and said they wanted to admit some of our people. Based on this alone, do you think we should check for them first? Those quick-footed and good-looking people If you're good, you can go, those who are good at cheating and cheating should stay in the village, but don't go to Huo Huo's Tang family!"

"If you don't pay attention to it now, when something happens in the end and someone is embarrassed, and even Shanwan Village can't hold its head up, will you still be so unconcerned about this matter that it has nothing to do with you?"

When he said the last sentence, Zhang Xiaohe's attitude was very tough, and his usual respect for the clan elders was missing from his tone.

The elders of the clans looked at each other in confusion, their expressions changing constantly, and finally everyone nodded in agreement.

"Then do as you say."

Early the next morning, the villagers who wanted to work as part-time workers in the Tang family, those with their daughters, and those with their wives, took a bite of their breakfast and left for the town.

However, Zhang Sanniu blocked his way at the entrance of the village and told him about the clan elders' decision last night.

The villagers went to Zhang Lizheng's house in great numbers.

Zhang Lizheng put down the bowl in his hand and asked, "Do you all want to work as part-time workers in the Tang family?"

Some people who are interested will ask: "Uncle Li Zheng, you haven't finished your meal yet. How about you eat first and we can ask you later?"

"Oh, your porridge is so delicious, and this spoonful of vegetables is well pickled. It looks delicious at first sight."

Zhang Lizheng rolled his eyes at those people angrily and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it. We country people don't like the way city people greet each other."

"Uncle Li Zheng, brother Sanniu said that the village has decided that those who want to work as part-time workers in the Tang family must pass your test first?"

Zhang Lizheng nodded, "Yes, the rules set last night."

The villagers were surprised to hear that this decision was really made.

"Uncle Li Zheng, it's not that we don't obey the rules of the village, but it's the Tang family who accepted this person, and it was not decided by our village. Aren't you taking off... This is unnecessary."

The man changed his words to a more elegant tone at the end.

"Yes, that's what I said. Do you have any objections? Are you unwilling to listen to my old man?"

The ones who spoke hurriedly shook their heads, "How could that be possible? You are the upright person of our village and the backbone of our whole village. The elders also believe in you. Everyone is very happy to have you as our adviser."

Some people murmured in a low voice: "It's true that dogs are meddling in other people's business. It's as if we can be selected if you agree. Let's go to the Tang family and ask ourselves. What's the point of you interfering? This is not delaying everyone in vain." time?"

The voice was neither too loud nor too quiet, but it was clearly heard by the people around him. Naturally, a few words fell on Zhang Lizheng's ears.

Zhang Lizheng didn't care who said this, but just asked the two ladies in front of him: "From the Fengshou family and the Dashu family, do you two want to work as part-time workers in the Tang family?"

When the two women heard this, they said: "Yes, Uncle Li Zheng, you also know that our two families don't have much land in total, and our family lives very tightly. We naturally want to give it a try if we have the opportunity." "

As he said that, he looked at Zhang Lizheng with a pleading look on his face, "Can we go and give it a try?"

Zhang Lizheng looked at the two ladies in front of him, both of whom were less than thirty years old. They were both down-to-earth and straightforward, and had quite a good reputation in the village. He nodded and said, "You two can go, if you are selected." You should work hard when you get there, and don’t disgrace our Shanwan Village.”

"We must not embarrass the village."

The two of them started, and several other women asked if they could go, and the scene quickly became lively.

At this moment, a woman squeezed in from outside the crowd and said, "I'm going too, I'm going too, I'm going to be honest."

Zhang Lizheng looked at the person coming and frowned, "Pingshan family, forget it. Ansheng is at home, Maodong, don't go out and cause trouble."

After hearing this, the Hirayama family immediately became furious, pointing at the first two ladies and shouting: "Why can they go but I can't? Who are you looking down on?"

She didn't care that the dew in the morning had not yet dissipated. She sat down on the ground and howled: "Is it just their family that has little land? My family also has little land. Why can they make money and I can't?"

Zhang Lizheng frowned and said, "You get up first and talk about something. What do you mean by being so rude?"

The Pingshan family howled even louder, "If I don't get up, I won't get up. If you don't give me an explanation today, I won't leave. You are bullying people. Li Zhengguan is crushing people to death! I can't live anymore." !”
