C15 Go to the Village Head's House

On the next day, Chu Pann'er was quickly called into the Madam Chiang's room.

His goal was naturally to get the land back.

Madam Chiang took out a plate from under her pillow and handed it over to Chu Pann'er.

"Little girl, this is a gold medal from the imperial government. Later, come with me to the Village Head's house and tell him about the situation. If you are unable to negotiate, bring out the gold medal!"

Chu Pann'er looked at the gold plate, she was startled, but inwardly she was laughing inside, so the Madam Chiang also thought that the village head was hard to deal with.

"Alright, then should we go now?"

The Madam Chiang nodded. Chu Pann'er understood and walked over to help him up.

Arriving at the courtyard, he saw Chu Ying'er sweeping the floor from afar, upon seeing this, Chu Pann'er called out loudly: "Ying'er, Ying'er, we are going to the Village Chief's house right now, are you going?"

Hearing that, Chu Ying'er's back froze, she turned and looked at Chu Pann'er, then ran over and said: "I'm not going, Sis, you guys go ahead, be careful!"

Chu Pann'er's eyes flashed, she had naturally seen Chu Ying'er's attitude just now. Why was this girl so afraid of the village chief?

No matter what, Chu Pann'er still nodded.

"Alright, you take care of mother and the rest at home!"

Chu Ying'er nodded, then quickly ran to the other side to clean up.

Just as Chu Pann'er and Madam Chiang were about to leave, a voice called out to them.

"Milk, little girl, I'll go with you!"

Madam Wang ran over, rolled up her sleeves and said: "It's not easy to deal with the Village Chief's house, let me go with you!"

Seeing Madam Wang's simple face, Chu Pann'er nodded, and then the three of them went to the Village Chief's house.

When he heard that the three of them had come over, the Village Chief was stunned and quickly came out to welcome them.

"Old Lady Chu, why have all of you come?"

When Chu Pann'er saw the Village Chief walk out from the house, she could not help but twitch his mouth.

It really was as she had imagined. At a glance, he didn't look like a good person.

"Oh? Isn't this the Chu Clan girl? "After so many days of not seeing each other, I have grown taller by quite a bit!"

The Village Chief noticed that Chu Pann'er, who was almost a head taller than the Madam Chiang, was looking at her lecherously, as if she was about to reach out and touch her.

"Village Chief, we, Pann'er, are about to become adults. If we don't have families, we won't be able to support them, that's why we are looking for the village head!"

The Madam Wang just happened to appear and block Chu Pann'er's body, which was why the village head did not succeed.

Seeing that he did not touch Chu Pann'er, the village chief was unhappy, but she did not reveal it.

However, after hearing Madam Wang's words, her eyes narrowed and a thought-provoking smile surfaced on his face. However, it disappeared in a blink of an eye as she pretended to be serious and said:

"What are you thinking about?" "Although we are a few miles away from the county, we still do not allow people to buy or sell their goods!"

Madam Wang never thought that the village head would actually think of this. He could not help but sneer, but he did not dare show it in front of him, only showing a cold expression.

"Village Chief, what are you thinking about?" Even if my Chu Clan is starved, I will not sell my children! "

"It's because my daughter-in-law doesn't understand. Village Head, please don't mind it!"

Immediately after, Madam Chiang opened her mouth, thinking that the Village Chief was really funny.

He was so happy that he actually thought he was going to sell her.

That's not it?

The village chief frowned.

"Why is that?"

"Naturally, it's the two pieces of land that the Chu Clan lent to the village chief five years ago.

Wasn't this the child who had already grown up? There is nothing left to store in this family, just relying on the two pieces of land won't be enough to feed a large family, that's why we are here to reclaim our Chu Clan. "

When he mentioned the land, the Village Head's expression changed drastically, but he still said gently, "So Old Lady Chu did it for this. Since Old Lady Chu has asked, I will return the land to you. However, there are still crops in the land. I'm afraid we'll have to wait for a while!"

Hearing that, Chu Pann'er could not help but sneer, this was clearly an excuse.

"Village head uncle, we came from that direction, Pann'er took a glance, there's nothing there, I think, uncle, maybe you remembered something wrong?"

Chu Pann'er had an innocent expression, as if she had said it unintentionally.

Just as the village chief was exasperated and wanted to speak, he was stopped by Chu Pann'er once again.

This period of time is not the time to grow taro and potatoes and other vegetables, so the Village Chief Uncle must have remembered wrongly. The Village Chief Uncle, if it was in normal times, we would not come here to ask for land, but our Chu Clan has not been able to sustain us for long, so we cannot bear to starve to death, so we decided to look for the Village Chief.

"Little girl, it's not that I don't want to return the seed, it's just that this uncle has also purchased a spring seed. If you take it back now, I won't be able to plant a seed like this!"

The Village Chief had a helpless look on his face, but his gaze contained his own calculations.

How could Chu Pann'er not understand, how could she not understand, how could she, the village chief, do such a despicable thing?

When the Madam Chiang heard the Village Chief's words, she could not bear to see them again.

Hence, she pulled Chu Pann'er to the side and said softly, "I say, Pann'er, why don't we wait until the village head sows the seed in the spring, then come back after the autumn harvest?"

Upon hearing that the Madam Chiang had compromised, Chu Pann'er hurriedly stopped her: "Grandma, if we compromise just like that, wouldn't we have to wait for a year? Furthermore, we'll come back in a year. If the Village Chief says that he has forgotten to return it, and bought another batch of seeds, will we have to wait a bit longer? "

Madam Chiang was indeed a little clever, but facing some cunning village head, she was afraid that she would not be in a good spot.

"This …"

Madam Chiang frowned, not knowing how to reply.

When the village chief saw the two of them interacting, he suddenly remembered the rumors saying that Chu Pann'er knew how to do business at such a young age, so he asked: "Girl Panpan, I heard that you often go to the market to buy things. Didn't you earn money from that? "Could it be that that money isn't enough to cover the needs of our family?"

"It's hard for me to raise a family. Village Chief, Uncle, I'm only selling these worthless things. If I can't make the climate better, I might as well just be a good farmer!"

Saying that, Chu Pann'er's face had a look of regret, in the eyes of the village chief, Chu Pann'er had lost a lot in business, if not, why would she think about taking back the land.

Therefore, he looked down on Chu Pann'er even more, and did not have much confidence in facing this girl.

"Village head uncle, it's best that you return the land to us. After all, our family can only hope to live on those fields, and ever since father and uncles went to the frontline and never came back, our family seems to have lost its support. If we don't pull ourselves together soon, how can we let a big family live here?"

Chu Pann'er covered her face and cried.
