Farmer's eldest sister becomes rich

Chapter 329: Like a bad guy?

First, a draft is drawn up to list the various natural disasters that the villagers have experienced, and then the extent of the disasters and the poverty situation of the villagers in each village are explained.

It then describes the inaction of local officials in the face of various natural disasters, and their heinous crimes such as plundering the people and oppressing the common people.

Finally, the villagers were organized to sign and put their fingerprints one by one.

With the joint efforts of everyone, the Book of All Nations was finally completed.

An Yue handed the Book of All Peoples to the village chief for review, and the village chief took the Book of All Peoples.

He nodded and said affirmatively: "Yes, not bad, not bad, every word between the lines is true and sincere!"

The village chief looked up and couldn't help but sigh: "It's just... it's just this Book of All Nations, how are we going to send it out?"

An Yue thought for a moment and said, "Yes! This book of all people can be sent to the capital, and it is best to hand it over directly to the emperor."

A man in the crowd said worriedly, "But the capital is far away from here, with high mountains and long roads, and there are many dangers along the way."

Li Jing also nodded and said, "Yes! Now there is a natural disaster again, refugees can be seen everywhere. If you go out alone, I am afraid that before you reach the capital, only bones will be left."

The village chief frowned and said, "What should we do?"

After much thought, An Yue decided that she had to find a reliable person to deliver this matter to the emperor.

But at the moment, where can I find such a reliable person?

The village chief sighed again and said, "The worrying thing is that most people are not qualified to see the emperor, and those who can see the emperor may not be safe."

After much deliberation, An Yue decided to temporarily keep the Book of All Nations in the hands of the village chief.

So she said to the village chief: "This book of all peoples should be kept by Uncle for the time being. Now we can only wait for the right time."

The village chief waved his hand and said, "Yueyue, I'd better leave this Book of All Peoples in your care. You never know when you will encounter such opportunities." After that, the village chief handed the Book of All Peoples in his hand to An Yue.

He turned around and said to everyone, "I am already an old man! It may not be easy to leave this Baili Village. I have to rely on you young people to find a way out for us."

After hearing what the village chief said, An Yue couldn't help but sigh in her heart: [Life is only a few decades long. How sad it is to be born in this dynasty. Perhaps the farthest place most people can go until they die is the county town.]

An Yue quietly put away the Book of All People and said, "Well, that's fine. Yueyue will keep it for the time being. If the relatives, neighbors and elders need it, you can come to me anytime."

An Yue put away the Book of All Peoples and put it in her pocket.

Finally, she reminded everyone, "Also, Yueyue would like to remind everyone that the existence of this Book of All Nations must be kept secret. Don't reveal a single word to anyone, otherwise some people will get angry and we will suffer endlessly."

The villagers all nodded to show that they understood.

"Alright, that's it for now, let's all go home!"

After the village chief finished speaking, the villagers began to disperse and return to their homes.

An Yue walked home absent-mindedly.

As soon as I entered the yard, I saw that Chunzhi and Daniu had already sorted out a large bundle of bamboo strips and bamboo threads, and Ale was almost done weaving the basket in his hand.

Chunzhi asked with a smile: "Miss, are you back?"

An Yue responded with a "hmm" and went straight to her own room, storing the Book of All Nations in a secret place.

Then she returned to the yard to continue weaving baskets.

At this time, my sister-in-law Meng Xiuer poked her head out of the kitchen and shouted, "Everyone, get ready for lunch."

An Yue responded, and everyone put down their work and gathered at the bluestone slab to wash their hands.

After washing their hands, everyone came to the main hall and sat together to have lunch as usual.

During lunch, everyone was curious about the specific circumstances of the officials coming to collect taxes today.

Meng Xiuer picked up the rice bowl and asked curiously, "Yueyue, did those officials receive the grain tax?"

An Yue took a bite of food and put it into her mouth, and replied nonchalantly: "Yeah, got it."

Chunzhi frowned and said unhappily, "Ah? Did they really take away the villagers' food rations?"

An Yue swallowed the food in her mouth and shook her head, saying, "They didn't receive much. They only received the bushel of grain that the village chief lent us."

After hearing this, Meng Xiuer asked with a mixture of laughter and tears, "What? Just for a bushel of grain, you sent those officials back to the county town?"

An Yue smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes!"

As she spoke, An Yue stopped eating and said, "Through this incident, I finally got to see why the village chief could be the head of a village."

Chunzhi also quickly stopped what she was doing, turned around and asked, "Miss, please tell us what happened?"

An Yue raised her head slightly and recalled: "Well... facing so many officials, the village chief's speech was calm and composed, and his conversation skills were quite mature."

After hearing what An Yue said, everyone at the table nodded as if they understood, and continued eating.

......

Soon, the family finished their lunch.

Chunzhi and Meng Xiuer cleaned up the dishes and took them to the kitchen to wash.

An Yue and Daniu Ale went back to the yard and continued weaving baskets.

Since they didn't go out to farm, they didn't feel tired and no one wanted to take a nap.

An Yue was secretly wondering how to deliver the Book of All People safely to the Emperor.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

dong dong dong.

An Yue stopped what she was doing and asked, "Who is it?"

"Miss, how about letting me...I, Daniu, go and take a look first?"

An Yue shook her head and gestured to them to keep quiet.

Then, she slowly put down the bamboo silk in her hand and tiptoed towards the gate of the yard.

There was another knock on the door.

dong dong dong.

An Yue asked: "Who is it? Speak!"

"It's me." The voice was low and whispered, revealing a sense of youthfulness and vitality.

When An Yue heard the voice, she immediately recognized who the owner of the voice was.

An Yue slowly opened the gate and asked, "How did you get into this village?"

Gu Mingchuan looked at himself and asked, "Do I look like a refugee?"

An Yue shook her head.

Gu Mingchuan patted the dust off his arms and asked, "Do I look like a bad guy?"

An Yue smiled and nodded.

When An Yue lowered her head, she inadvertently saw a big bag in front of Gu Mingchuan's feet. The bag was bulging, as if it was filled with something.

An Yue pointed at the big bag and asked, "What's in it?"

Gu Mingchuan didn't say anything, he just picked up the big bag and walked towards the yard.

An Yue quickly closed the gate to the courtyard and shouted to Gu Mingchuan speechlessly, "Hey! I haven't let you in yet!"

Gu Mingchuan put the big bag under the eaves, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and said:
