Chapter 285: Are you that Lin Yuelan?

Translator: Lonelytree

Jiang Zhennan naturally obliged. Moreover, since the land had already been sold, it was very despicable for the Zhou couple to use this method to occupy it.

Jiang Zhennan, Guo Bing, and the rest immediately rolled up their pants and sleeves and went down to the field to pull out the seedlings. Jiang Zhennan was expressionless, and Guo Bing was indifferent. The others looked a little heartbroken. After all, this was food. Wasting food was a great punishment.

However, this was their order. Plus, their boss and first lieutenant were already pulling out the seeds.

In the beginning, Zhou Ping’s family of three was weeding the weeds on the ridges and getting rid of the dark yellow seedlings while secretly observing Lin Yuelan’s movements.

They thought that since their rice seedlings had been planted, Lin Yuelan would at most come to argue with them. At that time, they would only need to cry to get everyone’s sympathy. Due to moral pressure, Lin Yuelan had to allow them to continue working in the fields. Next season, they would do the same thing. It was a happy ending for everyone.

Obviously, Lin Yuelan knew their plan. It was why she was so ruthless. She refused to let Zhou Ping’s family take advantage of her at all. She had the men pull out the seedlings.

Seeing what Jiang Zhennan and his men were doing, Zhou Ping, his wife, and their son Zhou Lin immediately rushed over with hoes and sickles in their hands. They were ready for a fight. However, when they saw the imposing soldiers, Zhou Ping’s family of three became timid. They looked at these people with some fear.

However, Zhou Ping still mustered his courage and asked sternly, “Who are you? What are you doing pulling out the seedlings in my field? Leave!”

Lin Yuelan’s sharp eyes looked at Zhou Ping’s family’s angry and fearful expressions. She sneered and said coldly, “Your field? Zhou Ping, have you all forgotten that this plot of land has already been sold to me? Since it is mine, why can’t I pull out the weeds in my field? What does it have to do with you?”

When Zhou Ping’s family heard this, they looked a little embarrassed and angry. No matter what, their family’s land had indeed been sold. However, they also had to make a living. Without these fields, how could their family of three survive?

Besides, his son was already past the age of marriage. If he couldn’t find a wife, was he going to be single for the rest of his life?

So, once his son married and had a child, how would they raise them without the fields? Therefore, they couldn’t allow Lin Yuelan’s people to ruin the seedlings.

Zhou Ping immediately put on a pitiful and pleading expression and said, “Miss, I know that my family’s land has been sold to you, but I beg you, please let us plant for another year. Our family sold everything some time ago because we had an emergency. Our life is poor. I beg you to be merciful and give our family of three a way out!”

......

He cried. He looked pitiful and pathetic!

It was a busy farming season, so there were many villagers working in the fields. They had been following the commotion in Zhou Ping’s fields. They were shocked when Jiang Zhennan and the men pulled up the seedlings without a second thought. That was simply a sin.

The villagers of the Zhou Family Village knew Zhou Ping’s family very well.

They knew that Zhou Ping’s son, Zhou Lin, was a gambler. However, Zhou Ping and his wife worked day and night in order to make a living. They were thin and weak. This earned them plenty of sympathies.

People would always sympathize with the weak.

Seeing Zhou Ping’s tears and snot, someone stood up and said, “Miss, look at Zhou Ping’s family. They have sold their land. Without land, they can’t survive. Since this field has already been planted, Miss, can you let them work on it? They will return the fields to you next year.”
