?Chapter 206: Two hundred and seven, that’s something more expensive than gold! _1 Chapter 206: Two hundred and seven, that’s something more expensive than gold! _1 Over there, Aunt Zhang and Shen Cuilan had already made it to the ridge of the farmland.
Spring had just begun, and the weather was nice. Despite the mere fifteen-minute walk, both of them were drenched in sweat.
At that moment, Chief Ma was sitting under a tree, chatting with a few people.
Seeing Aunt Zhang arrive, he greeted her with a beaming smile.
“Eh? Auntie, your family hasn’t farmed for many years now, so what brings you here today?”
Aunt Zhang was an elder in the village; half of the people there were her juniors who all had to call her ‘Auntie.’
When she heard Chief Ma addressing her, she wiped her sweat and her expression darkened.
“If I didn’t come, Chenzi would be drowned by other people’s salivas!”
Pian Ran was like her own daughter, and Gu Chen was good to her too, always bringing her food, and now they were almost like family.
Being someone who always spoke her mind, she just couldn’t pretend she hadn’t heard the bad things people were saying about Gu Chen.
Seeing Aunt Zhang’s momentum and that she seemed ready to defend Gu Chen, Chief Ma gave a sheepish smile.
“Auntie, I know you two are neighbors and close, but being close is one thing. I’m just stating the facts with everyone. You can’t be too biased towards Gu Chen.”
“Yeah, that matsutake or whatever it is, we’ve never heard about it before. How could it be anything good?”
“Exactly, Auntie Zhang, if I may say, you’d better not interfere. Some things are beyond your control, this is Gu Chen’s retribution!”
Those who hadn’t rented out their land were getting more and more worked up, each adding their two cents to the conversation.
It seemed, the worse Gu Chen’s situation was, the more it validated their decision not to rent their land to him.
