Chapter 643: Chapter 643 Handling and Explaining
Village chief Li Suozhu glanced at Gao Shunyi, "Then let’s slaughter this pig and sell the meat. When these dozen or so pigs are ready for market, we’ll take an average price, and Shunyi’s family will make up the difference."
Li Xiulan, who had hurried over, wasn’t having it, "Chief, you’re bullying us. It’s not like Rusen did it on purpose, and it’s not like my son is the only one at the pig farm.
They all have a responsibility. If we have to compensate, it should be shared. Why should only our family pay? This is too unfair."
As soon as Li Xiulan said this, it was like stirring up a hornet’s nest. The few families working at the pig farm were up in arms, someone said, "Li Xiulan, your son caused trouble, why should we all pay for it? You sure have some nerve, utterly shameless."
"Exactly, the division of work in the pig farm is clear. Cleaning the pigsties was a job your son took on himself, all to avoid the sun. Though the sties may be stinky, at least there’s some shade. And now you want everyone else to carry the can for your troubles, you really have some audacity."
Li Xiulan replied, "Even if my son Rusen did not secure the latch properly and let the pig escape, the pig farm is not staffed by my son alone. Weren’t other people there at the pig farm as well?"
"Li Xiulan, stop making a scene here. You know as well as anyone that in the pig farm, once you finish your job you can leave. What, you want others to stick around with your son?"
"Li Xiulan, we haven’t even seen a trace of your son until now, you have the gall to say such things, thinking we’re easy to bully?"
After dealing with the situation at the pig farm, the team leader arrived to find an argument brewing. After understanding what had happened, he made a decision, "I think the village chief’s proposal is reasonable. Shunyi, state your position."
What could Gao Shunyi do? After all, the trouble was caused by his own son, and now the entire village was watching. He had no choice but to say, "Fine, let’s do as the village chief says."
Someone stood up and asked, "What about Gao Rusen?"
Village Chief Li Suozhu looked at the villagers gathered around, "The state has its laws, and the family has its rules; our village must also have its regulations. Gao Rusen has not fulfilled his duties properly and has also caused losses to the village. He won’t need to work at the pig farm anymore."
The person who spoke earlier stepped forward again, "Does that mean we need to find someone else to fill the position?"
The surrounding villagers began to chime in, causing a commotion.
In the end, a villager from a family in difficulty was chosen as a replacement. Li Xiulan wanted to make a scene but was held back by Gao Shunyi, who knew his family was in the wrong. If they made more trouble, the villagers would likely have an even bigger issue with their family.
The villagers felt that the outcome was relatively fair, as long as their interests weren’t harmed. Having settled the matter, everyone dispersed.
Luo Qiao wasn’t with the others at the pig farm; she was now showing her second brother around the garden at the foot of Daqing Mountain. As soon as Black Bean and Stepping Snow saw Luo Qiao, they sprinted over as if they were competing in a hundred-meter dash.
Running over and whining pitifully, they amused Luo Qiao, "Black Bean, Stepping Snow, good dogs, here I am to see you. Have you two been taking good care of the garden for me?"
The two dogs, upon hearing Luo Qiao’s words, seemed to answer back, stopping their whining and barking ’woof woof woof, woof woof woof’, as if to prove they had been working hard.
Luo Qiao took some jerky from her crossbody bag and fed it to the little dogs, then said to her second brother, Luo Xuyuan, "These are the two dogs I told you about before, they’re really smart."
When they reached a house not far away, she rinsed the dogs’ water bowl again and, while Luo Xuyuan wasn’t paying attention, she used the wall as cover to pour a good amount of Spatial Well Water into it.
Auntie Gao and the others had come down from the field on the hill, "Qiaoqiao, you’re back. What was going on in the village just now? We could hear quite a commotion from the garden."
Luo Qiao smiled and said, "A pig escaped from the pig farm and even got into the village. Just now everyone in the village was catching pigs."
Hearing this, Auntie Gao frowned and said, "What happened, how did a pig end up in the village?"
Luo Qiao chuckled, "I’m not entirely sure of the details, but I heard it was because the gate to the big pigsty was not fastened properly, allowing the pig to escape."
Luo Qiao introduced her second brother, Luo Xuyuan, to the people in the garden, then went on to say, "I came back this time to let everyone know, in a few days, I’ll be returning to Capital City.
I won’t be coming back here often after that. If there are any issues, you can reach out to Zhou Zhentao, who has been here before. He left his phone number; he’ll be in charge of handling everything here."
