Chapter 148: Even Eating is a Show
"Well, village, village chief, I, I can't do this. I'm not good at speaking, and I don't know anyone in Daqin Village. You are the village chief, and you are acquainted with the village chief of Daqin Village. You have prestige, so you have to say it." The man lowered his head and rolled his eyes, secretly cursing the village chief for being ungrateful. He gave him such a good suggestion, but he was still taking advantage of it.
The village chief sat up straight, stopped eating his steamed bun, and just stared at him without saying a word.
The man was so frightened by Song Tao's stare that he said, "Village head, why are you staring at me without saying anything? I'm scared when you do that."
Song Tao said slowly, "You still know how to be afraid? So you are afraid of me but I am not, right? Look, do you see those two people over there? You saw what happened to them. I don't have the courage to provoke the people from Daqin Village, and I don't have the face to ask them to go with us.
Look at the knives in their hands, look at their momentum, men, women, adults, children and the elderly are all full of energy. It feels like a child can come forward and tear apart two grown men like us. Do you think they need us?
Don't have any bad thoughts just because others are eating well. No one will be interested in you because you have so little flesh on you.
Next time before you have any bad thoughts, think carefully about the consequences and think about what the consequences will be.
Also, if you want to die, I won't stop you, but don't treat others as fools and expect me to be your vanguard. If you do this again, my whole family will be expelled from Songjia Village."
The man turned pale with fear at the village chief's ruthless words. He opened his mouth to argue, but seeing the village chief's eyes that saw through everything, he timidly swallowed his words and swallowed them back.
Before, the village chief might have said this to scare them, but after experiencing what happened to Song Zhu and his wife, no one in Songjia Village would think that driving them out was a joke.
"Village, village chief, I won't dare to do that again. Please continue eating. Please continue eating."
The man staggered back to his home. People around him kept looking over here. They roughly guessed why the man was looking for the village chief. After all, the look in the man's eyes when he looked towards Daqin Village just now was full of undisguised greed.
"What's wrong? Did the village chief agree to your proposal?" His wife didn't watch the village chief and her husband communicate at all. She just stared at the pot in Daqin Village and drooled. When she saw her husband coming back, she couldn't wait to ask, but her eyes kept glancing at Daqin Village from time to time.
The food is so good. If her husband's proposal succeeds, the people in Daqin Village will have to give them half of the food and water.
A crisp slapping sound suddenly rang out. The woman covered her face in disbelief and looked at the man with a sharp voice, "Boss, what are you crazy about? Why are you hitting me?"
This man has never lifted a finger at her at home. He listens to everything she says. What's wrong with him this time? He beat her in front of so many people for no reason!
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Her already aggressive personality made her even more unable to bear it, so she stretched out her nails and scratched the man.
"I let you hit me! I let you hit me! I married you at fifteen, lived with you on coarse food, gave birth to children, took care of the house, slept with you, ate with you, washed your clothes and cooked for you, and in the end you hit me! Wuuwuwu~ I'm not going to live anymore, and neither can you!"
Soon the place became a mess. The man was already upset and scared, and he didn't know what to do when he looked at his hands. Now the woman was fighting and making a fuss with him, and he got angry too. He grabbed the woman's hair and slapped her twice.
"Bitch, I'm fine with you at home, but you act like a shrew outside. What's wrong with me hitting you? What man doesn't hit a woman? You're so precious that you can't be hit? I have to beat you today. If I can't kill you, I'll take your last name!"
The man beat and scolded her mercilessly, and the woman was frightened by this scene. She really didn't expect that the man would beat her to death like a madman, and now she couldn't even fight back.
The woman was beaten and screamed for mercy. The neighbors wanted to persuade her, but seeing that the man was like a madman, no one went up to him. Only the two men's children in their early teens tried to mediate and stop the fight.
"Dad, listen, Dad, that's Mom, you're going to beat her to death!" The eldest son couldn't pull her back, as he wasn't as strong as his father. At this moment, his father had lost his mind and his strength was even more astonishing.
The farce finally ended when Song Tao finished the steamed bun in his hand and came to mediate. He didn't want to get involved in this matter at first. Although he was the village chief, this family had a very bad reputation in the village, and basically no one wanted to have anything to do with them.
If he wasn't afraid of someone losing their life, he wouldn't bother to care about his family going crazy, not to mention that the man of the house had just plotted against him.
Song Tao's appearance quickly calmed the storm. The woman hid aside, hugging herself and glancing at the man with fear. After more than ten years, she seemed to recognize this man for the first time.
The man also squatted aside, not daring to look at the village chief, but at this moment he felt more relieved, as if the door to a new world had been opened. No wonder so many men liked to beat their wives. It turned out that beating their wives really made them feel better.
I have been listening to this bitch for more than ten years. If she says east, I won't go west. If she says she wants to chase a dog, I won't chase a chicken. It's time to change my lifestyle from now on.
If she hadn't coveted the things in Daqin Village and given him such a bad idea, he wouldn't have shown up in front of the village chief and made the village chief hate him.
The village chief looked at the two of them, simply told them to stop making trouble, and left. She was really fed up with these top-notch people in the village. At this moment, she felt particularly regretful. Why didn't he learn from the Daqin Village chief's approach? Wouldn't it be less troublesome if he just left these top-notch people in the village?
But no matter how much he thought about it, he didn't have the ability, the means, or the courage to leave behind so many top-notch items, otherwise they might not even be able to leave the village.
The people in Daqin Village ate while watching the farce in Songjia Village. It was really lively every day. There were people performing next to them even when they were eating. They were really worried that they would be bored.
"Shuyi, do we really not need to call Wanwan? We are setting off soon. How can we survive the journey without eating?" Old Mrs. Song looked at Qin Wanwan's tent, feeling a little worried.
This girl is usually very hardworking, but why did she go to bed today without even eating? Maybe she is sick.
Song Shuyi was still baking pancakes. "Mom, don't call her. Let her rest for a while. We've been either traveling or fighting lately. This girl is always at the forefront and is exhausted. It's better to let her rest more. I'm baking pancakes now. I'll call her when we're about to set off. Just have a pancake and drink some hot water."
