Chapter 103: Chapter 103 This Woman is so Arrogant!_1

Let them try their luck then...

Everyone was grinding their teeth in anger. Such an arrogant woman!

”Fine!” the village chief gnashed his teeth, ”Since you refuse to pay for the medicine, then get out of our village, we have no room for villagers like you in Jiuping Village!”

”Get out of the village! Get out of the village! Get out of the village!” Everyone echoed the village chief, raising their hoes, shoulder poles, sticks, and other items in hand, angrily shouting for An Jing and Xiao Changyi to get out of Jiuping Village.

”Oh,” An Jing remained calm and composed, contrasting sharply with everyone’s fury, ”So you’ve all come to drive us out of the village, I see.” She paused. ”Sure, but I’m afraid you might not have what it takes.”

The village chief was so angry his whiskers bristled and his eyes bulged: ”You’re forcing all of us to take action against you!”

An Jing replied slowly and deliberately: ”I’m afraid even if you do take action, you won’t be able to drive us out of the village.”

Too arrogant! Way too arrogant! This woman was just too arrogant! Everyone was so angry they really wanted to take action against An Jing, but because Xiao Changyi was standing beside her, they didn’t dare to make a move.

The twelve men who had been beaten said that Xiao Changyi had easily taken care of them.

Easily...

Exactly how formidable was this Xiao Changyi? They had no idea; what they did know was that if they started a fight, more people on their side would get hurt for sure.

There were already twelve injured, they couldn’t afford more injuries, then they’d have to gather more money for medicine.

Gathering money from each household was already like skinning them alive, to gather more would mean they couldn’t live their future days. They weren’t rich, with just a little bit of Silver Coin in each family.

Before coming here, everyone thought that just by telling An Jing and Xiao Changyi to leave the village, with the advantage of their numbers, Xiao Changyi and An Jing would surely not entertain the thought of fighting and would obediently move out of Jiuping Village, but now...

Everyone felt an indescribable anger inside, yet they were unable to express it; they could only feel the furious burning in their hearts, suffering immensely.

”It’s okay if you don’t move out of Jiuping Village,” the village chief was forced to compromise, lacking the firmness he had when he told An Jing and Xiao Changyi to get out of Jiuping Village, ”but from now on, we’ll mind our own business. You are not considered villagers of Jiuping Village anymore, and we have no villagers like you.”

An Jing’s laughter was brilliant: ”That’s exactly what I wanted~”

The village chief felt extremely stifled.

”Then you can no longer use our village well to fetch water!” someone shouted.

An Jing said airily: ”Why not? My husband also contributed money when that well was being built.”

The well in Jiuping Village was drilled ten years ago, and at that time, each household contributed fifteen coins. Xiao Changyi, as One Person, was also counted as one household and contributed fifteen coins.

”He did contribute money, but he also fetched quite a lot of water from the well, so consider his contribution settled,” said the village chief.

”Right!” everyone agreed in unison, ”Settled!”

An Jing laughed out of anger: ”You really have no shame at all. My husband, as One Person, contributed the same fifteen coins as your families with many members, and I let it slide. But now you’re saying we can’t continue to fetch water? Then how can you continue to fetch water? Just because you’re the majority?”

”We will reimburse you the fifteen coins now, and you are not allowed to fetch water from the well anymore,” the village chief made a swift decision, sincerely not wanting to entangle any further with An Jing and Xiao Changyi.
