Back to the Countryside - Chapter 68
The rumors in the village did not fade with the passage of time as the village chief imagined at first, but intensified, and people who came to his home to visit more frequently.
If you don’t talk about it, it’s okay. Once you talk about it, it will be out of control. Everyone will blame He Ling for their bad luck, so as to find comfort in their hearts.
Some people even blamed him on the bad harvest this year, instead of reflecting on whether they didn’t take care of the crops.
“What the **** do these people think? All trivial things are on you!” Xu Hua was very annoyed, because he had a good relationship with He Ling, this matter was rarely mentioned in front of him, and he also accidentally today Only after hearing other people talk did I know that the matter was so serious, I went to their house right now.
Qi Yue had a cold face and said nothing. He has been with A Ling these days. He doesn’t care much about the affairs of the village. Someone is discrediting his little husband and planning to drive them away!
“Okay, don’t make yourself angry.” The calmest of the three was He Ling. He poured a glass of water for Xu Hua and said, “I have been called a disaster star since I was a child, and I am used to it. ”
Xu Hua took a sip of the water he had handed him, and suppressed the anger in his heart, “One by one, he didn’t look for problems on himself, but he believed those unreliable ones. Someone actually lay two eggs less than the chicken at home. It’s ridiculous to talk to you!”
Seeing him putting the cup on the table again, He Ling couldn’t help but laugh out loudly, “You said it was ridiculous, so why bother to be angry about this, knowingly you are just talking nonsense.”
Seeing him not only didn’t get angry, but laughed instead, Xu Hua felt weak. Those people were scolding him and wanted to drive him out of the village. Did he take his words to heart?
“I don’t think it’s an accident!” Qi Yue, who hadn’t spoken for a long time, suddenly opened his mouth expressionlessly, “It must be a rumor deliberately spread by someone behind the scenes.”
If it weren’t the case, how could the good rumors start at the beginning, and now it’s the autumn harvest, and no one has the time to talk about these or not.
“You mean, someone is deliberately targeting Ling Ge’er?” Xu Hua understood what he meant at a glance, and felt that there was some truth in it.
He Ling was also taken aback. He didn’t think about it here. There are many people in the village who hate him, but they are the only ones who wish to drive him away, “He family?”
“No!” Qi Yue retorted unexpectedly. “The old, weak, sick and disabled of their family don’t have the guts to provoke us now!”
In fact, there is a person who chooses in his heart, and only he is the most likely. If that person does it, he doesn’t even need to retaliate. Sooner or later he will…
As the three of them were talking, Feng Zheng approached the door and said that several households in the village were stuck in their homes, and the village chief had to make a decision to drive them out of the village! The village chief was too annoyed, so he asked his son to come to them and talk about the matter.
He Ling was still pregnant with a child, and Qi Yue didn’t want him to go to that messy place, so he asked Xu Hua to accompany him and walked with Feng Zheng.
When he arrived at the village chief’s house, the people in the house saw him look different, some were embarrassed, some were guilty, and some were obviously unwelcome. Most of these people were older generations, and there were also a few young men.
“Little Qi, you are here!” The village chief greeted him when he saw him. He was too annoyed, so he planned to find him, and everyone talked about the matter openly.
Qi Yue slapped his jaw to him, looked around at the people, smiling with a smile on his lips, “I heard that you have been paying attention to the husband who is here these days, don’t mind talking to him. ?”
He was so incompatible with others that he stunned people for a while, and there was silence in the room for a while before an old man coughed and said: “As the saying goes, it’s better to believable than others. Those words Although it sounds absurd, it is not completely unreasonable!”
“Yes, the disasters of the He family in recent days are indeed inexplicable, but we all see it in our eyes!” The other person also answered, with an expression of conclusive evidence.
“And the little tiger from the Lin family, what a good-looking child, my uncle and aunt’s mouth is so sweet on weekdays, why did they suddenly fight with someone and suffered such a serious injury!”
“Isn’t it? These are people who have something to do with him!”
Once someone started, those people would have less scruples, and they would gossiping as if they were all telling the truth, rather than hearsay rumors.
Qi Yue kept listening to them with a smile, until the room gradually calmed down, he said: “What you said, it sounds like my husband has nothing to do with my husband, so just put the crime on him. , Too far-fetched.”
“Hmph, he is your husband, you naturally speak for him!” A middle-aged man snorted coldly, “Our family’s harvest has been good in previous years. This year, once his life is good, it will be much worse.” , Must have been blessed by him!”
This year, his family’s harvest has lost a lot, and his heart is very suffocated. It just happened that there were rumors in the village, and he immediately felt that it must be the other party’s fault, otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence!
Qi Yue turned his gaze to him, saw the resentment on his face, raised his eyebrows and said, “This eldest brother laughed. meaningless.”
When he said this, it was as if he was making trouble unreasonably, and the man angrily said: “Don’t tell the relationship here, you have never planted crops before, but the grain in the ground is growing!”
He had seen the crops in the other side’s field. The wheat ears were so dense and full that he was very jealous when he saw them. How could a person who turned his head back to the field to grow such a good grain!
“Although I haven’t planted any land before, he is a doctor who cares for medicinal herbs all year round, and he has a bit of experience in caring for plants.” Compared with his excitement, Qi Yue was quite calm.
The man was blocked by him, he felt that he lost face, and was even more angry. “I can’t tell you scholars, but these things must have nothing to do with He Ling. For the good of everyone, you should move from the village as soon as possible. Go out and pay for our losses!”
As soon as he said this, Qi Yue smiled coldly, saying so high-sounding, but he also wanted to use this to fight the autumn wind, “You deduct some unreasonable charges against my husband. I haven’t asked you to settle the account. It’s a blow!”
He suddenly changed his face, and everyone present was taken aback. He was accustomed to his gentle and reasonable appearance, but he was a little shocked when he looked at him so coldly.
The village chief sighed. The matter itself was that they were making troubles unreasonably. They had to rely on others. If it was really impossible to end this time, they were responsible for it.
“I will come over today, but I didn’t listen to you pour dirty water on my husband, but to tell you that I don’t like to cause trouble, but if someone finds trouble on my head, I won’t let it go! “Qi Yue held his hands, his eyes swept across each of them.
Everyone’s expressions are hard to look at. No matter where their generations are, if they are taught by a junior, their face will naturally be overwhelming. The old man who spoke first said: “Qi Yue, don’t speak too much, sit here. You are all older than you!”
“I have always respected only the elders who are sensible, like the village chief.” Qi Yue said and gave him a hand, and the other side nodded at him, “As for those who rely on the old and sell the old, let’s forget it.”
“You…” The old man was choked with anger, and he held his chest smoothly.
What he said did include all the people present here, doesn’t it mean that they are oppressing the younger generation based on their age, and don’t put them in the eyes at all.
“Our village doesn’t welcome people like you who don’t respect the old!” The previous man pointed at him and shouted, “You get out of Gushui Village!”
Qi Yue narrowed his eyes and suddenly said, “Is there anyone you know in Shangzhuang Village?”
What he said was inexplicable, and everyone did not understand, but the man suddenly changed his face and squeaked: “I…I don’t know what you are talking about. I have always lived in Gushui Village. How can I know Shangzhuang Village? People!”
Regardless of his excuses, Qi Yue asked again: “How much benefit did he give you to let you spread bad things about my husband?”
The man’s expression became even more flustered, his eyes dodged from those who dared not look directly at him, sweat broke out on his forehead after a while, and he didn’t speak for a long time.
His guilty reaction made everyone present in amazement. What does this mean? Is there anything else in the relationship?
The village chief understands that this person has been aiming at Qi Yue, and his feelings are for the benefit of others. When he thinks about Shangzhuang Village, he also thinks of a person, “Is what Qi Xiaozi said is true?”
“He… he said nonsense, I didn’t!” The man was obviously panicked, but he still refused to admit it stiffly.
But at this moment, no one believes what he said. His expression has been completely exposed. Many people can’t help thinking in their hearts that this person has indeed been whispering in their ears several times. The poor harvest of his family was caused by He Ling. I grabbed my blessing and said that the recent bad luck in their family might also be related to the other party!
Seeing that everyone’s eyes were starting to look bad, the man was also a little scared, and quickly said: “Not only did I receive the benefits, but I was just helping out, but I didn’t pass the word out!”
He admitted that, everyone’s face changed again, and the look in Qi Yue’s eyes was a little embarrassing. It was obvious that someone was targeting them, and they were all taken advantage of!
“Who is the one who gave you the silver?” The village chief was obviously more concerned about this issue and asked first.
The man shook his head and said, “I don’t know him. I only know that he is from Shangzhuang Village.”
His answer was in Qi Yue’s expectation. The other party was already a lot smarter now, so naturally he wouldn’t do this kind of thing himself. It would be strange if he knew it!
But these are not important. Anyway, he knows in his heart that these people only need to let them know that someone is behind them.
Seeing their embarrassing expressions, Qi Yue smiled and bowed his hands at them, saying: “Just to find the person who passed the message, I was a bit offensive in words. The juniors are here to make me apologize, and I hope to forgive you. .”
He took the initiative to give the steps, no matter where they have no reason, naturally they all waved their hands quickly and said that it was excusable, and they could understand it, so he didn’t need to take it seriously.
After a few words of politeness to each other, Qi Yue’s expression turned a bit sentimental, and said, “Because of these rumors recently, Aling’s mood is very bad, he can’t eat any food, and he is still pregnant. I’m really worried. Everyone in the village, please help explain one or two, don’t let him be so traumatized.”
When everyone sees him like this, the guilt in their hearts is even worse. It is really unreasonable for them to arrange a brother who has a child like this, and they don’t know who is so wicked, and they are so calculating.
It was right for him to have such a request. Everyone agreed, and the matter was over here. They didn’t have the face to wait any longer. They all left. The man also slipped away secretly. Qi Yue ignored it, anyway. He won’t be more comfortable in the village in the future.
“It’s a farce!” The house finally calmed down, and the village head was relieved. He tentatively said, “The one who makes the message…”
Seeing him mention this, Qi Yue knew that he also had guesses in his heart, “The village chief does not have to worry, I know it in my heart, and I will deal with it.”
It’s just some tricks made, really think you can hide it from the sky? But it’s really naive, and it’s impossible to treat him as those idiots of the He family!
