C30

It took six hours to walk from the village to the town, and six hours to walk back and forth was equivalent to twelve hours in the modern era. If that was the case, then there was no need to do anything else. Wang Da Hua's ox-cart often sent villagers to the town, and each person was worth a lot of money. This saved a lot of the villagers' time, and he himself could earn a little money for the grass.

In order to come back earlier to do farm work, the villagers got up early and waited for Wang Da Hua's oxcart at the village entrance with the things they wanted to sell. Today, the Sun family had sent three people: Sun Ye Xuan, Sun Ling Yu and Sun Yuanjie. Sun Ling Yu and Sun Yuanjie each picked up 100 jin of dried meat, while Sun Ye Xuan carried 30 jin of dried meat on her back. Because it was all in a bamboo bucket, it was somewhat heavy.

When the Sun family arrived at the village entrance, the others saw them running away. One of the women sized Sun Ye Xuan up without any trace of politeness, her eyes full of disdain.

"Ladies and gentlemen, get on the carriage!" Wang Da Hua stopped the oxcart in front of everyone.

"Wait." The woman who was sizing up Sun Ye Xuan said coldly: "Da Hua, we are a woman from a good family, not from the same carriage as those people."

"This... "We're all familiar with each other, why must we be so unhappy ?" Wang Da Hua scratched his head, his honest face full of confusion.

"Who are you calling unclean?" Sun Yuanjie stared angrily at the woman, "Sister Zhang, you can't be like this. If it wasn't for me, your son would have been eaten by wolves long ago."

When the woman heard Sun Yuanjie's words, a flash of embarrassment and annoyance appeared on her face. She was a village widow. Her husband had died more than a decade ago, leaving only her and her son. A few years ago, her only son, Hu Xiaoming, went to the mountains to play and accidentally ran into a lone wolf. Hu Xiaoming, who was still a child, thought it was a dog and recklessly tried to touch it. Luckily, Sun Yuanjie had seen and stopped him.

If it was a normal day, the Hu family would thank Sun Yuanjie for his kindness. But now, Sun Ye Xuan's reputation was just too terrible. People like her did not want to interact with her, so of course she would not be willing to accept the kindness of her family.

"Big Brother Sun, don't say that. It's as if our family owes you. Our dog said that it wasn't a wolf, but a dog. " Hu Zhang's wife coldly said.

Sun Yuanjie was infuriated. If he knew that he had saved such an ingrate, he wouldn't have taken the risk. In order to chase that wolf away, he had made the old wounds worsen. Otherwise, how could he have suffered so much these past few years?

"Father, what did you say to her? This kind of person's brain will always be muddled, no matter how much you say it, it's useless, it's just wasting your breath. " Sun Ye Xuan held Sun Yuanjie's arm and said.

"Little Xuan girl, since you look down on us rural women like that, then don't squeeze in with us. Originally, the ox-cart was already small, and yet you guys still carried so many things, how can we sit on it? " Hu Yang, who had been watching, laughed for a long time and said, "What is this thing you're looking for?" The smell is pretty good! "

Hu Yang wanted to come over and open the lotus leaves on Sun Ye Xuan's back, but Sun Lingyu gently pushed her away. He smirked and said, "Aunt, your hand is in the wrong place. This is something from my family. As for whether or not we can ride in an ox cart, that's not up to you. Brother Wang, don't you think so? "

Wang Da Hua saw that both sides were in a deadlock and was in a dilemma. His family did not have many fields. Fortunately, he had an ox in his early years, so he could earn some money to supplement his family's income. He was an honest man and did not want to offend the villagers. Otherwise, what would happen if they did not ride on his oxcart? He still had an old mother to support in his family!

Sun Ye Xuan looked at the dozen or so unfriendly women, then looked at the troubled Wang Da Hua. She frowned and said, "Dad, how about we stop sitting."

Sun Yuanjie's face was sullen as he carried the burden and left. Sun Lingyu and Sun Ye Xuan followed him. As for those proud women, they didn't even bother to quibble with them.

Sun Ye Xuan had decided that she needed to earn money early and move to town. These people were so vulgar and unreasonable that it was impossible for the people of their family to assimilate into them.

"Giddy up!" Wang Da Hua drove the oxcart past them. From the car came the mocking laughter of the women.

Sun Lingyu angrily stared at their shadows, and only when they were far away did he complain, "Father, it will take six hours! When we get to town, I'm afraid those people will all go home. "
