The Village Girl Who Jinxes Her Husband Is Filthy Rich

924 The Dispute of the Lin family Village Chief

The successful development of the sloping fields caused a sensation in the surrounding villages. Soon, it had reached the ears of the county Magistrate, Lord Liu.

“What? is that true?” Lord Liu listened to his subordinate’s report in shock.

“Yes, I am. My Lord, many people are rushing to Taoyuan village just to take a look at the terraced fields. Although it’s just the beginning of spring, and there’s not much water everywhere, I don’t know how the people in Taoyuan village do it, but every field is filled with water.”

These farms were just developed and were dry. Therefore, they had to be soaked in water to soften the soil so that they could grow crops later.

“This … How is this possible?” This was the first time Lord Liu had heard that a hillside could be developed into a field.

“This subordinate also finds it hard to believe. My Lord, why don’t we go and see if it’s real or fake?” One of his subordinates suggested.

Lord Liu nodded and said, ” yes, let’s go and take a look! Xu San, go make the arrangements. We will leave in a moment.”

“Yes, my Lord!”

..

The Lin family Village gathered under a tree for a meeting.

However, this meeting was not hosted by Lin Yiwei. Instead, a few people took the lead and noisily held a collective meeting, with the exception of Lin Yiwei.

“Look, everyone from the surrounding villages can go to that jinx’s place to see the terraced fields. Why are we the only ones rejected? ” Lin Changzhi said indignantly.

“What else could it be? Of course, it’s because the chief didn’t do anything.” As if they had discussed it, someone immediately responded after Lin Changzhi finished speaking.

What he meant was that they couldn’t visit the farms because Lin Yiwei didn’t want to negotiate with Lin yuelan. In addition, the Lin family village had some grudges against Lin yuelan, so Lin yuelan refused to let them visit the farms.

Of course, there were still some people who were biased toward Lin Yiwei. They immediately argued, ” Changzhi, you can’t say that. What does that lass’ refusal of us visiting the farms have to do with the chief? Although he has a good relationship with he, that girl is stubborn and ruthless. Can you blame the chief for this?”

Then, Lin Chong stood up and said, ” that girl may be cold and heartless, but everyone can see how close she is to Lin Yiwei’s family. If he were to talk to that jinx about this and let us see what those terraced fields look like, wouldn’t that girl give him face and let us all go? So, in the end, it seems like Lin Yiwei is becoming more and more unwilling to work for us.”

Lin Chong had originally respected Lin Yiwei, but because of Er Gouzi and the land that Lin yuelan had forced him to sell, his family developed a grudge against Lin yuelan.

Lin Yiwei and Lin yuelan had a good relationship. In addition, Lin Yiwei had been biased towards Lin yuelan time and time again, which led to some villagers blaming Lin Yiwei and his family.

This time, after being incited by Lin Changzhi and the others, Lin Chong voiced his dissatisfaction with Lin Yiwei and pulled Lin Yiwei down from the position of chief.

“Chong Lin, you can’t say that. The reason why the chief is not willing to negotiate with Lan girl is that he does not have the face to go.” Some people were dissatisfied, so of course, there were also people who defended the chief. “I believe I don’t need to say how our village treated Lan ‘Er in the past. Everyone should know in their hearts.

“Since Lan ‘Er can disown her own family, why would she help those who had hit her when she was down?”

“Lin Minglan, what are you saying? How could you speak up for that girl? Are you planning to betray us? Are you even from the Lin family village?”

Lin Minglan’s words were immediately met with the anger of some people.

Lin Minglan was equally furious. He shouted, ” how am I a traitor? Am I not telling the truth? In the past, when that girl was chased out of the house, how many of you beat her up or scolded her? You said such vicious words and acted like she was your punching bag. You even wished that the girl would disappear!

“But now, the girl had changed. She was capable of making money. In the end, you’re still unwilling to let her go, repeatedly saying that she’s possessed by a demon and even want to kill her.

“Why should she help someone who bullied her and wanted to kill her? In my opinion, it’s already good enough that she doesn’t take revenge. Now, you’re still disdainful of her, but at the same time, you’re shamelessly trying to get benefits from her.

“If I were the chief, I wouldn’t have the face to ask for such a request from Lan ‘Er. Now, you’re actually blaming the chief for everything, you’re too much.”

The moment Lin Minglan finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room froze for a long time.

How could everyone not know about these things? However, who was willing to admit the mistakes they had made in the past?

Not many people were willing to.

They had always stubbornly believed that the reason why their lives were not smooth and good in the past was that a jinx had been in their village.

If they didn’t have this jinx, their lives would definitely be better.

But now, that jinx was no longer in the Lin family village, and their lives were getting worse and worse. On the other hand, those who had some connections with Taoyuan village were getting better and better.

Who could they blame?

But …

“Lin Minglan, what nonsense are you spouting?” Lin Chong immediately jumped up and criticized, ” that girl is a jinx. She is just a little girl, yet she bears such a grudge at such a young age. What would she do when she grew up? Also, hasn’t she been raised in our village?

“She had left the Lin family Village and started an independent village, but so what? That can’t change the fact that she was once a Lin family villager.”

Lin Minglan listened to Lin Chong’s words and then looked at the expressions of the other villagers. His eyes could hide his disappointment, but in the end, he said, ” alright, you can say whatever you want and do whatever you want. I don’t care anymore. But there’s one condition, and that is if you want to change the current village chief, I’m telling you, I won’t agree.”

With that, he strode away.

…

Lin Yiwei, Lin Mingqing, and Lin Mingliang were sitting at a stone table in the courtyard of their home.

How could they not know about the happenings in the village outside?

Lin Mingqing looked at her father worriedly and called out softly, ” father …”

Lin Yiwei shook his head and said, ” Qing ‘er, don’t worry. I’m fine.”

Lin Mingliang’s character had always been straightforward. He said angrily, ” they’re really too much. In the past, our Father did everything for the village. Now, father has only refused to represent the village and make a request to Lan ‘er, and they are already so resentful of father?”

Lin Mingqing listened to Lin Mingliang’s words and did not say anything. He only asked, ” father, now you …”
