“Can’t you see it?” a voice echoed through the crowd. “They’re a married couple playing both sides. One wants to cover it up, to avoid us making a fuss, while the other blatantly disregards us. They’re not afraid of our resistance. It’s as if money gives them the right to do so!”
The commotion was loud and disruptive. Gu Zi and Su Shen had been absent for quite some time, which prompted An Yun and Li Hua to come out and investigate. They didn’t know what had transpired, but they sensed trouble. They hurriedly approached Gu Zi, with Li Hua asking, “What happened, sister? Are you alright?”
Gu Zi, however, remained calm. “It’s nothing,” she said. “I just needed to clarify some things. The village chief did approach me about running a training class, but I haven’t given him an answer yet. Now, I don’t need to consider it. I won’t be running the class. You can rest assured.”
Upon hearing this, the woman who had spoken earlier stood up again. “We won’t believe your words,” she declared. “Who knows if you’re saying one thing and doing another? You’re telling us now that you won’t agree to the village chief’s proposal, but what if you agree behind our backs? We’d be helpless then!”
The crowd murmured in agreement. Seeing An Yun present, they disregarded Gu Zi’s words and called out to An Yun, “Let your husband, Lin Lao’er, come out and speak. He should stand up for his fellow villagers and give us a way out. We just want to farm in peace.”
“Yes, Sister Lin,” another villager chimed in. “We all know why your shop is so popular. It’s because you’ve added something secret to your braised meat, making it especially delicious. If this is discovered, it’s a crime. You’ll be jailed. If you run this training class and teach us to use that secret ingredient, wouldn’t that be harming us?”
“Exactly,” another villager agreed. “Your family can’t break the rules and harm the people of our three villages. We won’t sign up for your class. So, you’d better drop this idea. Let your husband come out and speak. Where’s Lin Lao’er? Ask him to come out.”
