Rebirth of the leisurely life in ancient times
Chapter 36 Follow the Rules
The village chief took the contract from Xia Zixuan and cleared his throat. "Let me read you what's written on it."
"Okay, Village Chief, please read it quickly! We all believe that Xuan girl is not that kind of person."
"Yes, yes, we must find out the person who ruined Xuan's reputation. I still have two girls at home! We can't let the reputation of our village be damaged."
The village chief raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet. "The contract basically states that Xuan Yatou sells the recipe to the Pinxian Pavilion Restaurant in the town, and..."
After the village chief read the contents of the contract, he showed them the seal on it. Everyone was stunned. They couldn't read, but they believed that anything with the seal must be authentic.
"I didn't expect Xuan to be so capable! She has even cooperated with a big restaurant."
"Yes!"
"I told you Xuan isn't that kind of person! I don't know who spread the rumor, but if I knew about it, I would have to kill them."
Xia Zixuan stepped forward and said, "Aunts, do you remember who told you the story first? Please point it out. Whoever points it out will get ten coins, and whoever points out the mastermind will get a hundred coins."
"Wow!" The crowd was in an uproar. They didn't expect there was money to be given. Someone immediately stood up and said, "Li told me."
Li said anxiously, "It's not me. I also heard it from Sun."
"No, no, it's not me. I heard it from Zhou..."
One person pointed out another, and soon everyone in the village had pointed out the names of the people. The last person said, "I heard it from Li's son."
Li was furious and pulled her son over to beat him, "Come here, you little bastard. I'll teach you a lesson on nonsense."
"Your Majesty, it wasn't me. It was Ergou and the others who told me. They said it all." Li's son cried.
"Great! It's Zheng and Ma again, right?" Li said angrily after beating her son.
Zheng and Ma didn't expect Xia Zixuan to really let them identify her one by one. "Humph, they are all a bunch of money-grubbers."
"Where are Zheng and Ma? Call them over. They've been behaving well for just a few days, but now they're causing trouble again. If you don't want to stay in the village, just go back to your parents' homes." Wang shouted loudly.
"Ms. Zhou, go to the construction site and call Dahe and Dazhu over." The village chief pointed at a woman.
"Okay, Village Chief, I'll go now." After saying that, he ran through the crowd towards the construction site.
The village chief looked at the crowd again, "Is Brother Zhao here?"
The old man called by the village chief, Zhao Dahe's father, was furious and said, "Village chief, just follow the rules and don't worry about us."
Then he said to Xia Zixuan, "Xuan girl, Grandpa Zhao didn't take good care of the family. I'm really sorry for you."
Xia Zixuan looked at the old man in front of her, "Grandpa Zhao, it's not your fault. Besides, you don't live with Uncle Dahe and the others, so it's normal that you can't control them."
As they were talking, Zheng and the other person were also brought in.
"Let me go, I didn't do anything wrong, why are you holding me?" Zheng shouted.
Ma also struggled and said, "Let me go, I can walk by myself."
The village chief didn't even bother to look at them. "You all know the rules of our village, right? The village only gives you three chances. You've already used it once last time. And last time, Miss Xuan forgave you, but this is the second time. This time you should go back to your parents' home and reflect on your mistakes!"
As soon as the village chief finished speaking, Zhao Dahe and Liu Dazhu rushed back from the construction site, "Village chief, we agree with what you said. I'm sorry, Miss Xuan."
"Yes, I agree. I'm sorry, girl Xuan, we will send them back to her parents' home now." Liu Dazhu also echoed.
"I don't want to go back to my parents' home, Daha, please, I can't go back in this condition." Zheng cried.
Zhao Dahe said angrily, "Since you know that, why are you still slandering Xuan girl? You also know that our village will give married daughters-in-law three chances not to be divorced. No one cared about your minor actions before, but look at what you have done these two times."
"I was wrong. I really know I was wrong." Zheng and Ma begged for mercy.
"Come on, follow me back to pack your things. I'll take you back now." Zhao Dahe pulled Zheng back.
Liu Dazhu also pulled Ma and followed closely behind them. No matter how much they cried and begged, the two of them refused to let go.
The matter was resolved, and Xia Zixuan did not break her promise, "Aunties and aunties, tomorrow you go to the village chief's house. I will give the money to the village chief and let him distribute it to you."
"Oh well, Miss Xuan is so kind and capable."
"That's right. It would be great if my girl could be half as good as Xuan."
"Forget it! Your girl can't even catch up with Xuan."
"Hey, you..."
After the matter was resolved, Xia Zixuan and Wang said goodbye to the village chief and went to the construction site. Everyone had just finished their meal, but they hadn't eaten yet!
