Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 104: Chapter 104: Let’s see who dares to mess with us after this, hmph!_1

”Right, we’re giving your fifteen coin stinkin’ money back to you, and don’t you even think about fetching water from our well again!” the others echoed one after another.

It was all just for the sake of pride.

They couldn’t stand losing to An Jing and Xiao Changyi every time they clashed, and they were determined to turn the tables this time! They wouldn’t let An Jing and Xiao Changyi fetch water from the well!

An Jing was simply speechless.

This was no different from her and One Person each putting in ten cents to start a business together, and when they earned ten million, the partner refused to split the money with her, giving back only her original ten cents.

It was the height of shameless audacity!

”You’re really fantasizing,” An Jing scoffed, ”Can the fifteen coins from ten years ago even compare to fifteen coins now? If you want us to stop drawing water from the well, fine, give us five taels. As long as you pay the five taels, we won’t fetch water from the village well again!”

Immediately, a villager complained discontentedly, ”Why don’t you just rob us! Five taels are enough to dig three wells!”

An Jing ignored the villager and said, ”Anyway, I’ve said my piece. Either give us five taels or we’ll continue to fetch water from the well.”

”An Jing, you’re going too far!” everyone raged uncontrollably.

An Jing continued to disregard them, adding, ”If you don’t give us the five taels and still have someone guard the well... heh, then I’m sorry, but the outcome will be the same as today, with my husband dealing with you all~”

”You——!” everyone was too angry to speak. It was infuriating—where were they supposed to get five taels? They couldn’t even gather one tael; they still had to raise money for medicine.

But they also didn’t want to get beaten by Xiao Changyi again...

So, were they left with no choice but to let An Jing and Xiao Changyi continue to fetch water from the well? After making such a fuss, were they going to concede and fume time and again? They were so resentful! They couldn’t stand it!

But what could they do about it? An Jing and Xiao Changyi were now two bullies, and they were genuinely without any means to deal with them.

The more they thought about it, the more disheartened everyone became.

The village chief suddenly seemed to have aged ten years, weakly saying, ”You can continue to fetch water, but apart from sharing the well with us, you have no other connection with us. Just like I said before, you are not people of Jiuping Village, and Jiuping village doesn’t have villagers like you.”

An Jing immediately responded with satisfaction, ”No problem~”

Why would that be a problem? She would love for things to be that way.

With neighbors like these, to be honest, they were truly disgusting. Better off without them.

No one could muster a smile. Seeing An Jing smiling so brilliantly, they grew even more furious, choked with indignation. They didn’t wait for the village chief to dismiss them; they turned and left straight away. How could they stay any longer? To continue being humiliated?

The village chief said nothing more to An Jing either, turning away and shuffling off despondently.

”Let’s see who dares to provoke us after this, hmph.” An Jing turned and wrapped herself around Xiao Changyi’s right arm, proudly saying.

Xiao Changyi didn’t speak, a slight smile playing on his lips as he raised his left hand to gently touch An Jing’s head.

An Jing allowed Xiao Changyi to stroke her head meekly, tilting her little face upward, smiling contentedly, ”Let’s go, let’s have dinner.” Dinner was already prepared; if it wasn’t for the village chief bringing people over, they would already be eating.

”Mm.” Xiao Changyi let An Jing continue to cling to his right arm, closed the courtyard door, and then walked with An Jing toward the kitchen.

”Husband,” An Jing suddenly said excitedly, ”they’ll need to recuperate for at least a month, both inside and out. How did you beat them so fiercely? Tell me all about it.”
