Rebirth of the Forbidden City: The Troublemaker in the Courtyard

Chapter 301 Fang Village



Chapter 301 Fang Village

In the evening, I made a big pot of stewed antelope beef and potatoes.

The meat of takin is more tender than ordinary beef, and after stewing, it does not have a hard texture at all.

The dinner was so sumptuous that Ning Yuan and his friends finally enjoyed it to their heart's content after a tiring day.

The next morning, Ning Yuan woke up Chen Xiaosi, then cut about ten pounds of antelope beef from the side room and carried it out of the yard.

Ning Yuan's yard is at the easternmost end of Fu'an Township, and the village chief's house is a little west of the yard.

Some time ago, the old man who brought a group of young and old men to Ningyuan to cause trouble was the village chief.

Ning Yuan brought the meat to his house not to admit defeat or apologize, but to find out which village, the one Zhong Yuemin, Fatty Fan and the others went to, had the worst customs.

He had plenty of meat and food, but he had to prioritize.

First, look at the guys over there who need his support the most. Now they have a gun in their hands. If anyone dares to mess with them or bully others by taking advantage of their power, Ning Yuan will let them see what it means to be domineering!

The village chief of Fu'an Township is named Li Fugui. Most of his peers joined the army more than 30 years ago. He did not join the army at that time because of his weak legs and feet.

Unexpectedly, more than thirty years later, he survived and became the oldest and most prestigious person in the village!

Ning Yuan and Chen Xiaosi carried a large piece of meat and knocked on the door of old man Li Fugui.

An old lady came out of the door. When she saw Ning Yuan and the other educated youth, her face instantly fell.

But when he saw the meat in Chen Xiaosi's hand, he forced a smile and invited Ning Yuan and the others to his home.

Old man Li Fugui was slurping wild vegetable porridge at the wooden table. He was surprised to see that it was Ning Yuan and the others who came in.

He is the village chief, so there are quite a few villagers who come to his house on weekdays.

Most of the time it was because of some trivial matters, or because of the number of work points recorded.

But he was really surprised that this group of educated youth came to his house. After all, they were driven out of the yard by Ning Yuan twenty days ago, and later people from the county even came to say hello.

The old man Li Fugui completely gave up the idea of commanding and controlling this group of educated youth.

The sun is shining today, and they actually came here, and they are carrying meat in their hands!

Li Fugui coughed twice, then picked up the pipe beside him, puffed on it, and then spoke to Ning Yuan and Chen Xiaosi.

"Come on, stop standing there. If you have anything to say, sit down and talk!"

Ning Yuan pulled out a wooden chair and sat down.

Chen Xiaosi put the meat in his hand on the table and stood obediently behind Ning Yuan.

"Uncle, I took them into the mountains yesterday to hunt this meat. I cut some for you and Auntie to try!"

Ning Yuan pointed to the meat on the table and said a few simple polite words.

He didn't take the unpleasant incident that happened in the educated youth's yard seriously.

When Old Man Li saw the meat, his face trembled, but he still held back his words. After all, he was an old and shrewd man.

"Alright, you're still young after all! You dared to go into the mountains and even managed to kill so many prey. Tell me, what brings you here to see me?"

When Ning Yuan heard that the old man did not mention the previous unpleasantness, he thought to himself that he was a sensible man. After sorting out his thoughts, he asked.

"Uncle, you're the boss here. You should know everything about the surrounding area!"

When Li Fugui heard this, he immediately exhaled a puff of his pipe and said with great satisfaction.

"Baby, I'm not kidding you. Your uncle knows everyone in the surrounding area! There's no village nearby that I don't know well!"

Ning Yuan smiled and nodded, then started asking questions.

"Well, uncle, do you know that those nearby villages have a reputation for being quite fierce?"

Li Fugui frowned when he heard this, then looked at Ning Yuan.

"Why are you asking this? What's your plan?"

"Nothing, some of my friends and classmates are working in nearby villages. I'm just asking around to see which village is more aggressive, so we can stop our classmates from getting bullied!"

Ning Yuan said this, whether it was true or false, and Li Fugui blushed for a rare moment, and then spoke.

"Actually, the folks around here are all pretty nice. They're mountain folks, so they don't have much experience. If the kids from outside come here, how can we bully them? If you want to talk about vicious people, there are two villages, but they're not from our area!"

Ning Yuan heard him get to the point and asked quickly.

"Those two villages are quite vicious, Uncle Li, tell me about them!"

"Well, this one is called Fang Village, about ten miles north of here. They're deep in the mountains. I heard that those cowards are refugees who fled here from somewhere thirty or forty years ago!"

Li Fugui took two puffs of his pipe and spoke with a mixture of curses.

After hearing this, Ning Yuan kept a straight face, but his heart was already beating fast.

Isn’t Fang Village the place where Fatty Fan and a dozen of his friends went?

After thinking about this, Ning Yuan quickly asked.

"Uncle, can you tell me what's going on in their village? Why is there a refugee village?"

Li Fugui was about to say something, but suddenly stopped. After looking at the meat on the table, he looked up and signaled his wife to lock the gate.

After hearing the sound of the door being locked in the yard, he continued talking to Ning Yuan and the others.

"What a bullshit refugee village! That's a damn bandit village! These cowards, decades ago, who knows where they were, were bandits or deserters who escaped from somewhere, but they gathered in Fangshangou. They've bullied every village around them!"

Li Fugui's words made blood rush to his head. If those people were really in front of them, they would probably want to bite them.

Ning Yuan could no longer sit still after hearing this.

What the hell!! How is this arranged? Why is there a bandit village!!

After seeing Ning Yuan's expression, Li Fugui comforted him and continued to explain.

"Don't worry, they've restrained themselves a lot now! There were also fleeing soldiers from our mountain, but they were wiped out long ago. The ones left behind were only spared because they honestly married and had children!"

Ning Yuan thought about it and agreed. In 50, the southwest and northwest were the key areas for suppressing bandits, but that didn’t mean that only these two places were used for suppressing bandits.

At that time, we were conducting a cleanup operation everywhere in the country, and anyone who dared to bomb the enemy was put through training!

The rest may just be some remnants. Although they may not be very honest, if they dare to commit such a serious crime, they are really courting death.

However, Ning Yuan could no longer sit still, and hurriedly asked what the other vicious village was called.

Li Fugui said it was called Hukou Village.

Ning Yuan knew that none of his buddies were from this Tiger's Mouth Village, so he didn't take it to heart anymore.

What he is most worried about now is Fatty Fan and his gang. You know, they have become much lax in management of their subordinates in recent years. I hope nothing really happens!
