Chapter 367: First Mention of Marriage for Little White Cabbage Female Lead (Part 3)
Mo Qingze was not foolish. Thinking of the deeds Wang Dali and his wife had done before, he quickly understood their intentions and naturally wouldn't agree to their request.
So he patiently said, "It's not that I don't want to agree, but our family is also villagers of Liuyang Village. We must listen to the village chief. If your family is truly in difficulty, you can ask the village chief to intervene and seek help for you. I believe the village chief won't refuse."
Wang Dali's hope sank continuously. He looked at Mo Qingze, who remained unmoved, and said, "Master Mo, you are the only scholar in Liuyang Village. Even the village chief would give you face. As long as you speak, the village chief won't say no."
Mo Qingze's expression turned cold, displeased. "Exactly because of this, I won't break this precedent. Otherwise, if every family comes to me to intercede with the village chief in the future, wouldn't it be deliberately making things difficult for the village chief?"
Originally, this was straightforward truth, but in Wang Dali's ears, it sounded like intentional avoidance. Suddenly, a surge of resentment rose in his heart. He looked darkly at Mo Qingze and his daughter, unwilling to give up, and asked, "So, you refuse?"
Seeing him like this, Mo Qingze frowned slightly and still refused, "The village chief promised you three days. As long as you find people to help, your house can be repaired."
Wang Dali finally gave up upon hearing this. He cast a sinister glance at the Mo family and coldly snorted, stopping his wife who wanted to say more, and even disregarded his parents directly, rushing out of Mo's hall.
Auntie Wang tried to catch up a few steps but failed. She turned around and glared fiercely at Mo Yan and others, as if the Mo family had committed some unforgivable crime against her.
With the help of several semi-grown children, they carried the two elderly out. Mo Qingze and Li Zhong stepped forward to help, but they were accused of being "hypocritical." The children even spat at them, which made Mo Qingze, who had some remorse, completely disregard this family.
With just the Wang family members, it was impossible to repair the house within three days. Wang Dali had to ask for help from villagers, but the villagers privately knew they wanted to squat in Mo's house and refused to help them.
Therefore, Wang Dali ran around half the village, but he was rejected by villagers with various excuses, revealing how poor his reputation was. Continuously hitting a wall made his resentment heavier. He resented the village chief for meddling and resented the Mo family for being unhelpful, yet he had to go to the village chief's house and ask Yang Bao to help find people for him.
Yang Bao had known this would be the outcome long ago and cursed Wang Dali for being incompetent. Still, he managed to find more than ten people to help repair the house for him. Those who were asked were unhappy, but out of respect for the village chief, they reluctantly went.
With many hands, the Wang family's house was repaired within three days. On the day they moved out, Auntie Wang packed things while loudly cursing and blaming others. Her loud curses could be heard by passing villagers, making them feel even more sorry for the Mo family.
Mo Yan and the others were annoyed, but they didn't want to argue with the Wang family, so they kept their distance and pretended not to hear. However, the children couldn't bear it and went over to argue with them. Unfortunately, they were no match for Wang's children, who insulted them back, leaving them full of anger when they returned.
Zhen'er even vowed never to be friends with Wang's children for the rest of his life and vowed not to let them come to their house again.
When their village friends came to visit, Zhen'er complained to them with a look of grievance, asking for their judgment. Naturally, these friends sided with him. When they returned home, the adults felt that the Mo family was unlucky. They had helped others but gained no benefit. Such people were not worthy of help, and they looked down on the Wang family even more.
