Chapter 21 The Kindness of Our Ancestors
Chapter 21 The kindness of our ancestors
Si Shanhe was really annoyed. He didn't understand that the Si family was so kind to the village, so they couldn't take care of their aunt too much. How could Mrs. Li have the nerve to talk about her aunt?
"Si Shanhe, what are you talking about? You can't help it, so I can't help it?" Si Zhengping was so angry at Si Shanhe's words that his head hurt.
This Si Shanhe usually seemed to be a good-tempered and honest person, but as soon as he encountered something involving his aunt, he immediately became impulsive and irritable.
It made him angry and happy at the same time.
It's a good thing to be able to protect your aunt like this, but you can't be so clueless!
Si Zhengping rubbed his temples and stepped forward to persuade Si Shanhe: "Obviously, Mrs. Li's matter must be dealt with, but we must not let it go without making a fuss. You have forgotten about the Yang family..."
"Aunt, aunt..." Si Shanhe was about to retort to Si Zhengping, when he turned around and saw a small figure appearing in his sight.
My aunt unexpectedly stood outside the door at some point.
Si Shanhe suddenly started to stutter when he spoke, and he felt a little overwhelmed while holding his clothes.
She was secretly annoyed in her heart that she should have asked Mrs. Wu to speak in a lower voice just now. She didn't know when my aunt came and how much she listened to what they said.
My aunt is still young, and those nasty words said by Mrs. Li will make my aunt very sad.
I think of how my aunt looked like when Master Si just passed away, crying every day to find her father.
Si Shanhe's dark and thin face showed deep regret.
"Auntie, why are you in the kitchen? Are you hungry?"
Si Zhengping reacted quickly and walked out with a smile to greet Si Qing.
"Don't worry, Auntie. The meal will be ready in a while. Today I made your favorite chicken soup for Auntie, so it took some time."
Wu also walked out immediately, wiping her hands unnaturally.
Si Qing ignored the two men's attempts to change the subject, but looked at Si Zhengping with bright eyes: "What's going on with Li Erniu?"
She heard their entire conversation clearly just now.
It turns out that besides the Si Dashan family, there are other thorns in her territory.
How could Lord Demon, who has always been so self-centered, allow someone who opposes her to take advantage of her and jump up and down?
Si Qing locked his eyes on Li Erniu in an instant and prepared to take care of him. How could he be fooled by them so easily?
"This, this..." Si Zhengping was speechless for a moment when he saw her bright eyes.
Why does he feel like his aunt wants to cause trouble?
"Auntie, let me tell you about Li Erniu." Si Shanhe was dissatisfied with Si Zhengping's hesitant attitude, and he always felt that the village chief would be partial to Li Erniu, so he beat his chest and spoke out first.
It turns out that Li Erniu and Si Dashan's family, who claimed to be from Si Qing's lineage, were both outsiders in the village.
Twelve years ago, the late emperor suddenly passed away and the new emperor ascended the throne. There was a severe drought that year and many places were hit by disaster.
However, the imperial court turned a blind eye and refused to send people to provide disaster relief, which resulted in many people having to leave their homes to escape famine.
Li Erniu's family and Si Dashan's family were both widows who fled famine with their children. When they fled to Yang County, they were caught by a group of bandits and were almost eaten as two-legged sheep.
Fortunately, they met their ancestors and rescued them. The ancestors took pity on their orphans and widowed mothers, so they used their own money to buy some good-looking wasteland for Li Erniu's family and Si Dashan's family.
They also gave them food to support them and called on the people in the village to help build houses for them to live in. Only then did they settle down in Dajia Village.
Unexpectedly, the ancestors of these two families, who nodded and bowed as if they were going to repay their kindness with their lives, changed their faces after Master Si passed away.
