The leader of the Mei clan, Meili Zheng, stood up and testified to Zhu Lizheng, saying that what he said was true.

After going around, the Mei family had to believe that maybe the murderer might actually be the "missing" girl from the Zhang family.

Just wait, if the murderer is a girl from the Zhang family, can they still ask the Zhu family for "compensation"?

When they raised this question, they didn't even wait for Patriarch Zhu. When Zhu Lizi opened his mouth, Patriarch Mei cursed: "Nonsense! Since the murderer is not from Zhujia Village, what does it have to do with the Zhu family?"

"You still have the nerve to say that you owe the Zhu family a daughter-in-law, why didn't you take it into consideration?"

"That old godly woman didn't come to trouble you, it's already pretty good."

…

After all, the Mei family, which had gained nothing, was scolded and became dejected.

What makes them feel even more "unlucky" is that Mrs. Mei is a member of their Mei family, and they need to be responsible for this "funeral incident".

Don't ask them why they didn't report the crime and go to the Yamen.

Sorry, people in this era would rather "die" in the village than publicize it to the outside world, let alone go to the yamen.

"The official word has two mouths, and the words have two hands." If they really get into the yamen, they are the only ones who can't bear the surname.

This was also "sorted out" by Ye Yuran based on the memory of the original owner. Otherwise, if it was related to a murder case, she would not dare to intervene at will, for fear of being labeled with some inexplicable label.

But since Mrs. Mei is a "lonely person" and no one will stand up for her, neither Li Zheng nor the clan leader will find a way to suppress this matter and deal with it as a "household matter", then she has nothing to be afraid of and can bet

A handful.

"Boss, please pack two envelopes of jam and dried fish. I'll go to the clan leader's house later, Li Zheng." Ye Yuran said, "Anyway, Li Zheng, the clan leader has helped us so much.

You should also go and thank me."

"Yes, mother." When Mrs. Liu heard that it was going to be sent to Li Zheng, the patriarch's things, she packed them in a bigger bag.

Mrs. Liu felt distressed when she saw it: "Sister-in-law, you don't need to pack so much, right?"

Mrs. Liu didn't say a word and just worked silently.

Ye Yuran pretended not to hear. She just knew that the boss was a real worker, so she gave this kind of work to the boss. She turned around and called Zhu Bamei: "Little sister, please prepare a few boxes of rouge. I'll wait for a while."

Come and pick, this is for the family of the clan leader, Li Zheng."

It can be regarded as a small test for Zhu Bamei. Ye Yuran did not directly say who to give it to, hoping to make her use her brain more.

"How many boxes do you want?" Although Zhu Bamei was a little reluctant, she also knew that if it weren't for Li Zheng and the clan leader's help, their family would not be able to get away with the death of Mrs. Mei so easily.

Although her mother was able to block the Mei family for a while, she would not be so lucky every time.

Ye Yuran glanced at her: "It's up to you."

Zhu Bamei looked in pain: Isn’t it right? I don’t know what to do?

There was no other way, so Zhu Bamei could only run to Mrs. Li who was coaxing the child and asked her to help with ideas.

After hearing this, Ms. Li smiled and said: "What's so difficult about this? Think about it. Mrs. Li Zheng and the patriarch's wife are quite old and have unmarried girls at home. They definitely won't be able to use it themselves. You can

Count how many daughters they have and prepare accordingly."

Zhu Bamei suddenly realized: "So that's it, then... Fourth sister-in-law, don't you need to prepare some of her daughters-in-law?"

Mrs. Li took a deep look at her: "Some daughters-in-law are favored and some are not favored. How do you match them? According to daughters, whether they are married or not, it is definitely right."

This silly girl, how can a daughter-in-law compare to a daughter?

Ye Yuran also thought about the "good things" at home to see if there was anything she could get away with. She always felt that something was missing, that the gift was not "heavy" enough.

"Mom, is it almost done? This is already a very heavy gift." Mrs. Lin looked at the fish, meat, and rouge, and her flesh ached.

If these things are exchanged for money, they can also get some "hard-earned money".

Ye Yuran went to look at the soy sauce that was being "produced" and felt a little regretful. Unfortunately, it was still a few days away, otherwise the soy sauce would be almost ready. Using this thing as a "gift" would really be a "good thing"

A generous gift".

Because this time it was Zhu San's business, so Ye Yuran carried the basket and took Zhu San directly.

On the way, she also told Zhu San a few words and asked him what to say later.

In the blink of an eye, the weather seemed to be getting colder, and every household began to prepare New Year's goods.

The missing "Zhang Yan" has never been found. The Mei family went to the Zhang family several times to make trouble, hoping that the other party would hand over the "murderer". In fact, the Mei family did not want the "murderer", they just wanted "compensation"

That’s all.

The Zhang family did not have an "old godly woman" like Ye Yuran, so the situation was a bit miserable.

But the Zhang family is not a vegetarian, and they directly suspect that "Zhang Yan" is not missing, but was killed by the Mei family, and they want to settle the score with the Mei family.

The two families kept arguing, and things came to a standstill.

But that's it, it didn't cause any more trouble, and it can be considered that it is under the control of everyone, the clan leader.

During this period of time, Ye Yuran was not idle. He sent his sons and daughters-in-law to let them interact with Zhu Lizheng and the people of the Zhu clan's family to build a good relationship.

"Don't find this troublesome. Haven't you learned anything from Mrs. Mei's incident this time?"

"If it weren't for Li Zheng and the clan leader to come forward, do you think the Mei family's matter would be solved so easily?"

"In the past, our family didn't have the conditions, but now our family is gradually getting better. There must be many people who are jealous of our family and want to take advantage of our family. If we are upright and the patriarch stands on our family's side, it can save us a lot of things.

"

…

Not only the other members of the Zhu family were convinced, but also Old Man Zhu.

Obviously, compared to Ye Yuran, a "non-native", he understands better what people of this era "value".

When the first batch of vegetables from the vegetable field was harvested, he personally brought some and sent them to the clan leader's house in Lizheng. He also stayed with them for a dinner, drank a little wine, and "chatted" with them.

Up.

Anyway, when he came back, he was very happy, and his excitement was not gone: "Old lady, let me tell you, Li Zheng, the clan leader even praised me for my awesomeness, hahahaha..."

I felt a little dizzy and verbose a lot.

Listening to his drinking talk, Ye Yuran was thoughtful. Because what he was talking about was nothing else but about nurseries and transplanting.

So, Li Zheng, is it because of the compost and nursery that the patriarch is so happy to let Mr. Zhu drink?

I just don’t know if Old Man Zhu will be as happy as he is now when he wakes up and finds out that he agreed to Li Zheng, the clan leader, to teach the villagers how to make compost.

Sure enough, when Old Man Zhu woke up the next day and heard that he had agreed to such a thing, he froze on the spot: "I agreed?!"

"Yeah." Ye Yuran and the rest of the Zhu family nodded.

"How can it be?!"
