Chapter 209: Human nature
“Please also remember,?that my rice is not actually for sale.?I bought it to facilitate our family’s needs. It is difficult for everyone to buy rice. With the intention to help others, I sold rice to everyone. I don’t want to see everyone be slaughtered by the high price of rice in the town. But, I didn’t expect that this good deed will be turned as an evil deed by others. Seriously, when did I, Bai Zhi, opened a rice shop?”
“I’m?telling?you, from now on,?no one can buy rice from us. Don’t even try to do stupid things to scare us. Remember, there is no impenetrable wall in this world.?If you dare to do things you shouldn’t have, it’s best not to let me know. As everyone knows, I, Bai Zhi have some connections to the government official. If you let me catch you, don’t blame for not seeing you as village folks.”
Bai Zhi?never thought of using Meng Nan to scare people. But, if the matter comes to worst, if she has some backing that can be used, why not try using it?
This is human’s nature, people like to?refuse a toast only to be forced to drink fine wine. Perhaps because fine wine is more exciting to drink.
After hearing Bai Zhi’s words, the villagers didn’t dare to say another word. Even if they speak, their opinion doesn’t matter. So, what else is there to say?
Hu Feng stared at the villagers coldly and said with an angry tone: “You people still don’t want to leave? Do you need me to help you to leave?”
“No, no, we will leave by ourselves.”
Everyone immediately disappeared without a trace. Who doesn’t know how strong Hu Feng is? Last time, he twisted Bai Dazhu’s arms, as if he was only twisting two branches of dried trees.
They don’t want to experience the same thing. If not because Hu Feng was not in the house earlier, they will not dare to surround Hu Changlin and Zhao Lan.
When everyone left, Zhao Lan pulled Bai Zhi’s sleeve and asked: “Zhi’er, is it true that Xu Laosan and Xu Laosi’s wife have secret affair? Or are you just talking nonsense?”
Bai Zhi smiled and said: “Who asked them to talk nonsense first? I just let them taste their own medicine.”
Zhao Lan doesn’t know whether she would laugh or cry, she pointed her finger to Bai Zhi’s forehead and said: “You, don’t forget that you are a girl.”
Hu?Changlin laughed and said: “I think that Zhier’s?temperament is good. Only the strong can stand tall. In this village, when people see that you are young, they will bully and threaten you. It is human nature. Only by being strong, we can protect ourselves.”
When Hu Changlin?finished his words, Bai Zhi gave him thumb ups: “Hu Bo, I didn’t expect that you who usually don’t talk too much, and have an honest appearance, will make such a good remark.”
Hu Changlin?blushed and waved his hand: “Don’t make fun of me, it is really necessary, so I felt like saying it.”
Take Zhao Lan as an example. If she can?stand?strong in the Bai?Family, how can the Bai Family bully her? She even almost lost her daughter’s life.
After entering the cabin house, Zhao Lan said to Bai Zhi: “Zhi’er, I went to the field today and saw the melons grow pretty well. It’s only been half a month, but they grow so big. As if someone is forcing them to grow.”
Bai Zhi smiled and said: “Its all thanks to the purple vine leaves. That plant is very powerful. Even the off seasoned plants will grow. It is also good to use to it to seasonal plants. When we harvest the melons, let’s plant something else.”
