Chapter 1269: Chapter 1269: Speaking to Plead for Mercy
“Hahaha…” Gou Dan’s grandma had fought with people in the village all her life, smashing things and tossing manure, but today was the most satisfying because usually, people pulled her aside, preventing her from succeeding.
Now, with others helping her, it was too easy.
“Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey, ptooey…” Song Jiaming immediately started spitting, but no matter how much he spat, he couldn’t get rid of that nauseating chicken dung smell.
“From now on, I will come every day to feed him chicken dung,” Gou Dan’s grandma said proudly, clapping her hands.
The crowd agreed.
Wang Chunyan couldn’t stand it anymore; He Yulan and others also shook their heads and left. Shen Erkui and others had left earlier; this place was a mess, and from now on, Ma Xiulan, Su Dachun, and Song Jiaming’s days would be just like today, so there was no point in watching any longer.
On the way back, Shen Erkui discussed with Li Youcai.
“Everything else is our own fault, but the punishment of not being able to leave Trinity Village for a hundred years is just too terrible,” said Shen Erkui with a frown. “Uncle Youcai, you don’t know. The outside world has changed a lot; there are more and more job opportunities, and life is getting better. Not to mention a hundred years, even thirty years not being able to leave Trinity Village would completely ruin our next generation.”
Li Youcai was also worried!
“Now, our only option is to ask Sister Wen for mercy.”
“Sister Wen hasn’t come back; I heard that Su Wen handed this matter over to Su Qing to decide,” Shen Erkui had secretly learned this from Su Xiu. “We can’t count on Sister Wen at all; I think the most influential person now is Su Qing, otherwise, Sister Wen wouldn’t stay away.”
Although he also didn’t understand why Su Wen, as the eldest daughter, wouldn’t get involved.
“I’m not familiar with Su Qing,” Li Youcai turned his head to ask Wang Chunyan, “Are you familiar with Su Qing?”
Wang Chunyan shook her head, “I’m best friends with Sister Wen; I don’t really know Su Qing.” She always went to see Su Wen.
“What about you, He Yulan? Among us all, you’re the closest to them and even went into business together.”
“Although I’m closest to them, the one I really get along with is Su Xiu.”
Everyone then realized that the Su sisters had never truly integrated into Trinity Village. Or rather, Trinity Village had never treated them as one of their own.
How awkward.
“Why would Su Qing come up with such… such a malicious punishment? Whoever did it should be punished, why implicate innocent people?” Xu Qianjin complained dissatisfiedly.
Sister Chrysanthemum responded sarcastically upon hearing this, “As far as I know, some also plotted against Xuewen; why involve his next generation, who are even more innocent?”
Xu Qianjin glared angrily, “What kind of talk is that? Aren’t we all trying to find a solution now? Whose side are you on?”
“I’m just speaking some fair words,” Sister Chrysanthemum replied coldly and then also shut her mouth, not speaking any further.
“Let’s send a few representatives to talk to Su Qing, to plea for mercy,” Li Youcai decided, and started assigning people, looking worried as he scanned the crowd and finally said, “He Yulan, Erkui, Sister Chrysanthemum, Chunyan, and me. We few will go find Su Qing while they’re still here.”
Having agreed, they immediately took action. The others returned to the village chief’s home to wait for news, while those called out headed to Su Wen’s house.
When they arrived, Su Qing and her group had already packed up everything they could and were reluctant to leave behind.
The car’s trunk and roof were fully loaded. Ji Fang was turning the car around, and Su Qing stood at the door with Su Xiu, looking on.
