Xiao Lin curled her lips and said, "How could there be none? They blocked the door and nothing they could say would work. Later, Village Chief Wu brought a number of men from the village to drag those people away. They also said that whoever bothered us again would be driven out of Pingnan Village."

Old Mrs. Lin immediately nodded in understanding, and she said that why didn’t the people in the village come to the Cheng family to cry and beg.

It turns out that he had already begged for mercy.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."

Old Lady Lin attracted everyone's attention and continued, "This time I came back to tell you that Ah Wan has been promoted, and there are three more things."

Cheng Daniu and his companions listened attentively.

"The first thing is related to the village chief and others."

Cheng Daniu, Cheng Erniu and Li Sanzhu immediately understood what Old Lady Lin wanted to say.

Cheng Erniu scratched his head and said with a headache: "Mom, as soon as we returned to the village, we went to talk to the village chief and others in the workshop and asked them not to return to Lijia Village during this period of time, so as to avoid the people in Lijia Village being jealous and bullying them. But the village chief and others may be afraid of causing trouble for us, so they insisted on returning to Lijia Village."

Old Lady Lin pursed her lips and sighed, "Forget it then. During this period of time, you should pay more attention to the movements in Lijia Village."

Cheng Daniu and the other two nodded in unison.

"The second thing is, didn't Wan say before the New Year that he would treat everyone to a meal? After Wan recovers, he still has important things to do.

When the conscription issue is over, Daniel, you guys should handle this matter well and make sure no one finds fault with it."

"Hey! I've got that." Cheng Daniu responded seriously.

Xiao Lin moved his mouth, wanting to say that he had helped everyone so much, so why should he treat him to a meal? But in the end, he closed his mouth.

It's not her turn to decide this matter.

"One last thing. Erping is sixteen now. It's time for him to find a wife..."

"Mom! Have you chosen someone? Which girl is she from? What does her family do?"

Kobayashi's eyes lit up.

Suddenly interrupted by Xiao Lin, Old Lady Lin glared at Xiao Lin in annoyance and then said:

"I have been busy since I went to the city after the Chinese New Year. How can I have the time and energy to think about this?

I am telling you this today so that I can inform you and your husband in advance. I will ask around in the city, and you can also ask around in the village to see if there are any suitable relatives.

Getting married is a matter that affects Erping's entire life, so we should take our time in finding one, and there is no need to rush."

Xiao Lin glanced at Old Lady Lin's expression and said tentatively, "Mother, let's not ask around in the village..."

Cheng Erniu pulled Xiao Lin's sleeve and said, "Do you know what kind of relatives and friends the villagers have? Don't we live in the village too? How can mother cheat Erping? Just say less."

Old Lady Lin didn't look at Cheng Erniu and Xiao Lin, but looked at Cheng Daniu: "Sanxiong has grown up, you should pay more attention to him on weekdays. You have to find a wife for Sanxiong who can handle things."

Cheng Daniu nodded: "I'll remember that, Mom."

......

Maybe there was an order from above not allowing people to cry loudly in the city because of conscription, so Cheng Wan didn't hear much noise caused by conscription in the city in the past few days.

Cheng Wan took Gu Yu to eat and drink in the small courtyard behind the store, and chatted with Wang and Xu Zhinian.

Apart from worrying about news from the troops on the front line, such days are really leisurely and comfortable.

Cheng Wan pinched his stomach and clearly felt that he had gained a little weight.

Gu Yu also gained weight.

Cheng Wan pursed her lips, looked at Gu Yu who was eating with relish, and stuffed a large piece of meat into her mouth neatly.

Losing weight or something, we'll talk about that later...

"Awan? It's been six days since your grandma left. Why hasn't she come back yet? Could something have happened?" Wang felt a little uneasy.

Before she left, Mrs. Lin said she would only stay at home for two days, but this was already well overdue.

Cheng Wan swallowed the meat in his mouth and comforted him in a gentle voice:

"Mom, you are going back to our own home, what could possibly happen? If there was something wrong, Dad and the others would have come to the city to tell us long ago.

Besides, didn’t Third Brother go into the city earlier? He said that Grandma would stay at home for a few more days, so you can rest assured, Mom.”

"Ah Wan! Ah Wan!"

Speak of the devil, here comes Old Lady Lin’s loud voice from outside.

"Ouch! I'm so tired!"

Old Mrs. Lin sat down, took the soup handed to her by Wang, and drank it up in one gulp.

"What's wrong, Mom? Did Daniu and the others ask you to do some work?" Wang frowned slightly.

No, spring ploughing hasn’t started yet, so there shouldn’t be much work to do at home at this time.

Old Mrs. Lin waved her hands and sighed deeply: "I'm so tired!"

After Mrs. Lin's passionate narration and Deng Xiong's occasional supplements, Cheng Wan and Wang Shi understood where Mrs. Lin's tiredness came from.

In fact, it was the same question that Cheng Wan had reminded Mrs. Lin of before.

Before the people were conscripted, the village was filled with crying and noise almost all day long.

Especially when the day when the officials came to pick up the people got closer, more and more people came to Pingnan Village crying and making a fuss, and their voices became louder and louder.

Many people didn't leave at all, and stayed in Pingnan Village crying all night long.

They were all their relatives and friends. How could the people in Pingnan Village feel happy when they saw them like this? They started crying too.

Mrs. Lin felt depressed and had a headache because of her crying.

Not to mention going out and showing off to the villagers, Old Mrs. Lin didn't dare to go out at all. She stayed at home until the officials came to the villages to pick up people, and the people from other villages in Pingnan Village finally returned to their homes.

At this time, Old Mrs. Lin was planning to go into the city.

But who would have thought that Village Chief Jia and his companions would eventually be bullied by the people from Lijia Village.

How can this be tolerated?

Village chief Wu directly summoned the people from Pingnan Village to rush to Lijia Village and had a big fight with the people from Lijia Village.

Then they took the village chief Jia and others from Lijia Village back to Pingnan Village.

In the past few days, Village Chief Jia and others were dispersed and lived directly in the homes of some people in Pingnan Village.

Anyway, there weren't many people, and each family only had one or two people sitting there, so many families didn't even get a turn.

Cheng Wan blinked and digested what Old Lady Lin said: "So what are you going to do after this? Let the village chief and his people stay in Pingnan Village and not return to Lijia Village?"

"It's definitely not okay to keep living in other people's homes like this. Let's just stay like this for now and wait until the conscription issue is over before making any plans. But..."

Old Lady Lin licked her lips and continued, "But Mr. Fang said that the county magistrate of Shuonan County is a person who is extremely afraid of trouble. Since the two villages are already like this, why not take this opportunity to find the county magistrate and ask him to move the household registration of the village head and others directly to Pingnan Village to avoid the possibility of further conflicts in the future."

Cheng Wan raised an eyebrow: "Mr. Fang wants me to write a letter?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Old Lady Lin nodded repeatedly: "Mr. Fang said that he has your letters, and the county magistrate will definitely take them more seriously. As for the rest, Mr. Fang can take the village chief and Village Chief Wu to handle it."
