When Zhou Feng returned to his courtyard and began to sleep soundly, the courtyard house had already turned upside down.
The news of Jia Qiankun being sent to the police station had already spread in the courtyard. Under the organization of the three masters, a meeting had already been held. Everyone decided to plead for Jia Qiankun.
These people's thoughts were actually very simple. It was not that they were very caring. It was because these people did not want to increase their burden.
If Jia Qiankun was really arrested, what would happen to Qin Huairu, Jia Zhangshi, and her two children?
In these years, no one's life was good. Originally, when Jia Qiankun was not in trouble, he would often need everyone's help. Now, his income was completely cut off.
Then who would support the entire Jia family?
Do I have to rely on my neighbors to help me?
Which family could afford it? Originally, everyone was starving and had some food left to help their family. Now, if these people were to support this large family, it would be impossible.
If he raised their family, his own family would starve to death. However, if he did not provide for his family, they would really starve to death.
They were all living in the same courtyard. If a family starved to death, the entire courtyard would be in shambles.
If word got out, the reputation of the entire courtyard would be ruined. In this day and age, reputation was more important than life!
Although everyone's life was very hard, everyone's sense of honor was especially strong, and their dedication was also especially strong.
This was a beautiful virtue!
However, the current situation was that Jia Qiankun had already been sent to the police station. If the factory did not come forward, Jia Qiankun would definitely be re-educated.
However, this was where the problem was. The matter that could have been handled internally had been blown up by the Jia Zhangshi. The factory leaders had to deal with it according to the law, and it was useless no matter who interceded.
During the discussion, Jia Zhang-shi was scolded profusely. She had always been shameless, but in order to save her son, she had been swallowing her anger and did not dare to say a word.
After everyone had dealt with Jia Zhangshi, they still had to think of a way. In the end, everyone discussed and came up with the only feasible solution, which was to use righteousness to suppress Zhou Feng and let Zhou Feng step forward to bring Jia Qiankun out.
After all, they were all from the same courtyard. Everyone saw each other frequently, so they could not be so unreasonable.
In the end, it was unanimously decided that the three elders would step forward together to plead with Zhou Feng.
These things had all happened before Zhou Feng returned. Although Zhou Feng had no idea what they were discussing behind their backs.
However, when Zhou Feng returned, he already knew that these people would definitely come to kidnap him. Therefore, in order to be closer to him, Zhou Feng returned to his room without anyone noticing.
In order to create the illusion that he had not returned, Zhou Feng climbed over the wall and returned to his courtyard. He did not even unlock the door.
Anyway, Zhou Feng had the interspace in his hands, and there were all kinds of food in the interspace. Therefore, Zhou Feng did not get angry when he came back and directly went to sleep.
Everyone waited until night, but Zhou Feng's courtyard door did not open. Everyone thought that Zhou Feng had not returned and could only return resentfully.
Zhou Feng slept until midnight. When he felt that it was about time, he quietly slipped out of the courtyard again and headed in the direction of the canning factory.
When they arrived at the canning factory, Zhou Feng asked Bazar to pick up his car and set off. This time, Zhou Feng drove to the village alone. On the way, Zhou Feng released the 1,000 catties of grain from his space and continued to set off.
When they arrived at the village, it was already early in the morning. The village had their first experience. This time, they only sent a few people to receive the food.
After parking the car, Zhou Feng was once again dragged by the village chief to eat. Although the dishes this time were not as many as yesterday's, they were still very attentive.
Moreover, the main dish this time was specially made from the rice that Zhou Feng had sent over.
Looking at the sumptuous dishes on the table, Zhou Feng hurriedly said,"Old village chief, don't be so wasteful in the future. Just give me something to eat. There's no need to make these dishes.”
"That won't do. You're the savior of our village. If we mistreat you, wouldn't we be ungrateful?”
The old village chief shook his head as he smoked.
"There's really no need. It's not easy in the village. I know these things are hard to come by.”
Zhou Feng did not lack food, so there was no need for him to waste the last bit of food left by these villagers. One had to know that these wild animals and mountain products might be the only source of income for these villagers in a year.
Although farmers had their own land and could grow food and vegetables, people did not just eat.
Buying oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and cloth required money.
And this small mountain village had very little land to begin with. It couldn't even feed itself, let alone sell its agricultural products for money.
When Zhou Feng came over yesterday, he noticed that there were patches on the clothes of the villagers. It could be seen that the villagers 'lives were really not easy. They were barely surviving.
It was difficult for Zhou Feng to delay the enthusiasm of the villagers. He could only invite everyone to eat together. Zhou Feng definitely could not finish these dishes.
Although everyone in the house was swallowing their saliva greedily, no one moved. Zhou Feng persuaded them a few more times before the village chief finally spoke.
"Alright, since Comrade Zhou Feng has said so, everyone can remove these dishes. Give everyone extra food tomorrow."
"Yes, yes, yes. There are so many dishes. I can't eat them either.”
With the old village chief's words, everyone put away the food on the table, leaving only a rabbit meat stewed with mushrooms on the table.
They didn't eat the vegetables that had been removed. Instead, they kept them for the elderly and children to improve their meals tomorrow.
After Zhou Feng finished eating, he started chatting with the old village chief. On the way back yesterday, Zhou Feng had wanted to help the village solve the problem of food.
If he wanted to solve the problem, he had to understand the situation in the village first.
"Old Village Chief, there is not much farmland in this village, so we can't harvest enough food. How do you usually solve the food shortage?”
Zhou Feng handed a peony to the old village chief, but the old village chief waved his hand and refused.
"I'm not used to smoking this kind of cigarette.”As he spoke, the old village chief took two more puffs of his pipe before continuing.
"In the past, when the village was short of food, the higher-ups gave some subsidies. The villagers went into the mountains to hunt some game and dig some wild vegetables.
"But in the past few years, the harvest has been poor every year. The subsidies from the higher-ups have also disappeared. We know that the country is also in trouble. Even the cities are short of food.
We had no choice but to borrow some food from the factory to survive the famine. We can't afford to pay back the grain. We can only use apples to pay back the grain in the factory.”
After hearing the old village chief's words, Zhou Feng fell silent. These few years were the most difficult years for the people of the country!!
This was the tragedy of the era, and no one could do anything about it.
