Otherworldly Days

Chapter 174 Dispute

Several clan elders from the Cao clan gathered together. They also knew that Cao A could no longer be the village head of Cao’s village. They closed their doors to discuss who to choose as the village head. Everyone wanted to choose their own family. People still choose the village head who is closest to their home.Therefore, a group of them couldn't argue with each other about this issue.

But when they were arguing over who should be the village head, someone outside had already decided who should be the head of this Caojia Village.

Caojia Village is doomed to be restless today.

"Dong dong dong" sounded the gong, just at this time the workers also went home.Hearing the sound of the gong, they came out one by two. When they heard that Li was telling everyone to go to the ancestral hall, they all put down what they were doing and passed on.

Cao Dapeng and Sun Yanshan who came back from the town also heard about what happened in the village, so they rushed over.

When Fu Lang left, he ordered them not to go into the village, and it was not convenient for Qi Wanfeng to go out, so naturally he took the children at home.Sun Bailian, who loves to join in the fun, didn't dare to take the children there, and helped Qi Wanfeng cook at home, waiting for her husband to come back.

Liu Baishu, Gan Weiqi, Gan Weilin also stayed at home, but Wang Dahu went out and hasn't come back yet.

They are not from Cao's Village, and it is not easy for them to intervene when they know what happened in the village.The sour fruits brought back still need to be processed. There is no need to teach the children to read in the afternoon. Liu Baishu will take the children to handle these fruits. The big ones are okay and can already help with work. Not bad.

Since he taught the children to read, the children now call "Sir" when they see him.

Ever since he decided to be with Wang Dahu, he never thought about having offspring. Liu Baishu felt pretty good after being with Wang Dahu for so many years.But now seeing these soft children, he also likes them in his heart, and then the smile on his face is a little bit more. Among these children, his favorite is Xiao An'an from Cao Xiangnan's family. Not to mention the smart ones, they are also well-behaved and sensible, and their appearance is also pleasing.

The gate of the yard was closed today, Qi Wanfeng and Sun Bailian were cooking in the kitchen, and they didn't have to worry about the children outside, knowing that someone was watching outside, and the children would not run out after the door was closed.

More and more people gathered at the entrance of the ancestral hall, and when the number of people coming was almost gone, Li Zheng raised his voice and said, "Everyone must know what happened in the village today."

"As Lizheng of Caojia Village, I feel ashamed of everyone for what happened in the village." Lizheng sighed with guilt on his face.He really felt ashamed in his heart. Over the years, many such injustices had happened in the village, and he hadn't been able to stand up and seek justice for others like today.

"Such a young child just disappeared like this. Without Cao Gui's connivance, Mrs. Wang would be ruthless. Such a vicious brother has abused his own child for many years, and now he is selling him away That’s right, it’s driving people to death, it’s driving people to death.”

"Cao Agen, the village head, is the head of a village in Caojia Village. He connived at Cao's spending money to buy people, and even persecuted them to death. He is fair and just, but he is not worthy of being the head of our Caojia Village." Lizheng scolded Cao Ageng severely, and exposed the injustices that Cao Ageng had dealt with as the head of the village for many years.

"Yes, yes, what happened to Cao Chunhua back then, wasn't it the village chief's injustice..."

"There are more..." Li Zheng didn't need to list them one by one. Many villagers knew the unfairness of some things that the village chief had dealt with over the years.Everyone only cares about living their own lives, other people's affairs are other people's affairs, how dare they stand up and say a word?But now that Lizheng has stood up, they should also stand up and say a fair word.

"Now Cao Agen has been arrested, and the judge of the county magistrate has not yet come down. Regardless of whether Cao Agen can return to Caojia Village, our Caojia Village will never allow such a person to be our village head again!"

"Yes, that is, such a person is not worthy to be the village chief of our Caojia Village!" Everyone echoed.

"But, our Caojia Village can't live without a village head, so I, Cao Gaozhi, are here today to elect a new village head for everyone, and he is..." Lizheng's voice elongated, and finally called out a Name, "He is Cao Gang!"

Although Lizheng preferred Cao Xiangnan to be the village head, Cao Xiangnan was unwilling, so he had no choice but to elect Cao Gang as agreed.From the way he sees people, Cao Gang is also a kid who can accomplish things, and he is better than the village chief elected by the clan elders, and he agrees with this.

"No, I don't agree!" Hearing that Li was convening the villagers outside to elect the village chief, a group of clan elders rushed over. Hearing that he said that he wanted to elect Cao Gang as the village chief, the clan elders who hurried over they shouted.

"I don't agree!" The third master shouted.

oh?Cao Xiangnan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Third Lord, if you disagree, who do you think is the right village chief?"

"Cao A is the village head of our Caojia Village, it is very suitable." Cao A is the eldest son of the third master, and the third master chose his own family.

When he proposed this, the rest of the clan elders disagreed one after another, and they all quarreled.I say my family is good, and you say yours is good, which probably means that they all choose the people closest to them.

Li was standing there with a sneer.

"Well, whoever is elected as the village head should be decided by the villagers of Caojia Village. The elected head of a village is someone who does good things for the people in my village and works for the villagers of Caojia Village. It will be elected by everyone." Cao Xiangnan took a step forward and said loudly, "Every villager in Caojia Village has the right to choose who will be your village chief. The next suitable person will be the village head, this is the real fairness and justice!"

"So, let the villagers decide who to be the village chief. What do you think? This is the most fair and just approach."

These people also imagined that they would choose someone to suppress the villagers of Caojia Village, it was a beautiful idea!Unless he, Cao Xiangnan, will not be in Caojia Village anymore.What's more, he still wants to do a lot of production and planting here, and also set up a factory. These people are all hindering his progress. It is not a day or two for Cao Xiangnan to change the village chief. Now the opportunity is brought to him. Come.

"Okay, the village head of our Caojia Village should be elected by all of us." Cao Dapeng shouted loudly.

The villagers in the back echoed one after another, thinking that Cao Silang's words were right. The village chief of their Caojia Village should be elected by them, so now there are clan elders who want to object, and their voices are not as loud as the villagers. The elders gathered together and whispered.

"Well, in order to show justice, you can elect people who you think are suitable, and after these people go through a competition, each of them will stand up and say a paragraph at that time, saying that if you become the village chief, what will you do? Can you do something for the villagers. Then let the villagers decide who to choose as the village head, so that no one has anything to say?" Cao Xiangnan smiled slightly, and he dug a hole and waited for some people to jump into it.

Unless the people in Caojia Village are all stupid, they will choose another trash as the village head.If the people in Caojia Village were all stupid, then he had no choice but to lead everyone to open up another village.

"This..." Some clan elders hesitated.

"Everyone go back and think about who you want to be the village head, and the people who are elected are also ready to prepare. When the sun rises two days later, we will hold a fair election here and choose the most suitable village head. Long." Cao Xiangnan said, but this is no longer a question, but a decision on this matter.

"When the time comes, everyone in the village will put things aside and come here first to elect the village chief of Caojia Village. Each household will send one person out as a representative, and choose the person you identify as the village chief."

Cao Xiangnan didn't give those old guys a chance to refute at all, he glanced at Li Zheng.Li Zheng came to his senses and raised his voice, "Then two days later, we will elect the new village chief of our Caojia Village here!"

"Good!" Some villagers shouted one after another.

The gathered people dispersed, and everyone went home.

Even if the clan elders disagreed with this method of electing the village chief, they had to agree now, being led by the nose by Li Zheng and Cao Silang.The clan elders who had left the ancestral hall gathered together again, secretly discussing how to deal with Lizheng and Cao Silang "Kowkow..."

Hearing the knock on the door, Gan Weiqi went to open the door, "You guys are back, how are things going?" he asked.

Dinner is already cooked, just waiting for everyone to come back and have dinner together.

When Qi Wanfeng saw Fulang who had returned, he felt inexplicably relieved.Knowing that something like this happened in the village, Fulang went out, and he was always thinking about Fulang in his heart. He didn't know what was going on outside at home.

"Let me do it." Cao Xiangnan reached out to take the food from Qi Wanfeng's hand, and squeezed his fingers smoothly, communicating in their familiar way, so that this person doesn't have to worry about him.His fingers were pinched, Qi Wanfeng took a look at Fu Lang, and couldn't help but smile.

"Daddy..."

"uncle……"

The little ones all came over, Cao Xiangnan reached out and touched the heads of the little ones, telling them to sit down and eat obediently.

Today's dinner was much later than usual, and the dishes were served on the table, and everyone sat down to eat together.It was getting late outside, and everyone left their homes. Cao Xiangnan sent people out, and closed the door behind his back.

The sun set in the mountains and it was dark.

After the children took a bath, they all went back to the room and went to sleep. After covering the two little ones with quilts, Qi Wanfeng also returned to the room.

After taking a shower and returning to the room, he saw a person sitting on the bed waiting for him to come back. Cao Xiangnan smiled when he saw that person.There is a gentle smile in the eyes of each other.After blowing out the lamp on the table, the two of them got into bed, and then Cao Xiangnan told the people in his arms one by one what happened today.

Qi Wanfeng listened, and asked curious questions from time to time, and his husband would answer him.

"If anyone comes to the house recently, if I'm not at home, or if Liu Baishu and the others are not here, you and the children are left at home, so you don't open the door for people to come in, understand?" Cao Xiangnan was worried that those people in the village would mess up What kind of moth came out, but fortunately now his house has built a wall, and once the door is closed, it is not easy for anyone to come in.

"Well, good." The drowsy man nodded and answered, also remembering it in his heart.

There are more stars in the sky one by one, and the sound in the room gradually quiets down...
