Chapter 323 Don’t you care about me anymore?
On the morning of the second day, Village Chief Yang sent someone to call everyone to the door of the ancestral hall and specifically asked each family to bring a car to transport their things.
The main purpose of coming here today is to distribute the food and various supplies brought back from Renjiahe.
When Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang arrived, there weren't many people there.
When Yang Yongxing saw them, he came over with a smile and said:
"Da Ya, Xiao Lang, I heard my father talking to the elders about giving you two some goodies."
As he spoke, seeing their puzzled faces, he explained:
"Didn't you ask Uncle Lu to bring some medicine yesterday? That medicine solved a big problem!"
Seeing that they didn't know about this, Yang Yongxing became even more interested and started talking about it.
"When Uncle Lu came here yesterday, many people in the village had already come to see my father, all wanting to go outside to see a doctor.
The injured people in their family developed high fever and fainted shortly after returning home.
As you all know, prolonged high fever can easily be fatal.
But where can I find a doctor at this time?
The nearest doctor to us is in town.
But when you went to Yongfu Village to buy pigs earlier, you heard the news that the town had been captured by refugees.
In this case, even if I risked going to the town, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to find a doctor!
At that time, many people were almost crying.
When Uncle Lu came over, he saw this situation and immediately took out your medicine.
He asked about the patient's condition, and asked them to wash away the wood ash from the wound and replace it with the medicine you gave them.
The medicine you gave me was really effective. By the evening, those who had taken it came to report the situation.
Except for the seriously injured and unconscious Taro's father at the east end of the village, everyone else's fever has subsided!"
As he spoke, Yang Yongxing gave a thumbs up.
Lu Qingqing didn't expect such a thing to happen yesterday afternoon. After she and Qin Lang delivered the medicine, they went back to the house. After eating, they didn't leave the house again.
As the three were talking, more villagers came over one after another.
When many villagers saw Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang, they came over to say hello, and Lu Qingqing responded with a smile.
However, as wave after wave of villagers came to say hello, Lu Qingqing kept smiling until her face became stiff.
Fortunately, at this time, Village Chief Yang and the elders came out of the ancestral hall.
Village chief Yang first talked about the rules for the distribution of supplies.
The first one is that those families who died in battle for the village will be given priority.
The food, money and other supplies they received were several times more than those of others.
But no one has any objection to this.
Even if they divide up a lot of things, life will not be easy without their man.
Moreover, Yonggang's family had set a precedent before.
Even if you sacrifice for the village, the village will never forget you.
In this way, when something happens in the village, everyone will not hide away and dare not take action.
After sorting out those who died in battle, the next step is to sort out the injured.
Among them, the seriously injured and the lightly injured were given separate subsidies according to the severity of their injuries.
Then, the remaining supplies were divided into many portions according to the number of people and distributed according to their contribution on the battlefield at that time.
The village counted the number of people who fought on the battlefield at that time, and took a separate whole number for each of them.
Those with particularly strong abilities, like the team in Lu Qingqing's team that made breakthroughs and played a key role, will be given a separate share.
Finally, women working in logistics on the battlefield will be charged half the salary.
As for those who haven't even been to the battlefield, naturally they have nothing.
No one raised any objection to this division.
Of course, not everyone is satisfied with this division.
Among the villagers, there are always a few people who feel that the North Courtyard Team gets too much.
But after experiencing the bandits' siege, the fighting power of the people in the North Courtyard spread among all the villagers in Linshan Village.
The big knife was swung up, chopping down one person after another.
At this moment, no one wants to be unlucky.
Those whose names were called went forward to receive supplies.
Village chief Yang had already written down what supplies each person in the village needed to collect.
At this moment, he called out everyone's name and asked them to come forward and get their things.
Goudan's family was the first one to arrive. When they heard Village Chief Yang talk about the amount of food they needed to collect, the whole family grinned from ear to ear.
They went up happily to carry the food.
In addition to food, they also received silver, money, bedding, cotton-padded clothes, backpacks and other items.
Whenever he heard Village Chief Yang reciting something, someone from his family would go and get the thing.
Soon, the whole family was busy, moving all kinds of things onto their own carts.
Everyone was delighted to see this, and many families began to calculate the supplies they could get based on what Goudan's family received.
Lu Qingqing found it interesting watching from the side. It felt like the company was giving out gifts during the Chinese New Year.
There are many kinds of New Year gifts. If you give a little of this and a little of that, they can fill up half a cart.
As more and more people received the gifts, the mood of the crowd changed again.
Many families feel that although their family members are small, their men have also made great contributions to the village.
Moreover, people were injured and only got that little, so I couldn't help feeling a little resentful.
Especially when he saw other families who received more supplies, with almost a whole cart full of things, he became even more angry.
But Village Chief Yang and the clan elders have always had high prestige, and they explained the rules for distributing supplies clearly before the distribution.
Therefore, most people don’t have the courage to bring it up.
But there is always an exception.
When Yang Dehua heard his eldest brother calling out his name, he ran up excitedly with his wife and several children.
But he was the only one in his family who went to the battlefield. His wife and children hid in the mountains with the rest of the family.
Although he was such a big man, he basically hid behind his elder brother the whole time.
When discussing what was allocated to each family, the elders of the clan reluctantly gave a share to his family for the sake of Village Chief Yang.
When the food was being distributed, Yang Dehua became very dissatisfied when he heard the amount of the first grain.
But he also knew that everyone was watching, so he moved closer to Village Chief Yang and whispered:
"Brother, I went to the battlefield and stayed by your side to protect you the whole time. You should at least give me an extra portion!"
Although his voice was low, several elders nearby still heard it.
Upon hearing this, Village Chief Yang turned to look at the elders beside him, feeling extremely embarrassed. He scolded:
"Dehua, what are you talking about? I already explained the distribution rules!
What are you doing? Go back quickly!"
Yang Dehua was not afraid of his elder brother at all. After so many years, he knew his elder brother's temper very well.
"Brother, you don't know, our family of four has been hungry for a long time!
The last time I came to borrow some food, I was driven out by my sister-in-law and Yongyan.
My two children and I were too hungry to move."
Village chief Yang recalled the scene a few days ago when his daughter-in-law kicked his younger brother and his wife out of the house.
He looked at his brother's pitiful appearance and his tone finally softened a little.
"Okay, now we have to deal with important matters. Stop making a fuss and go back after getting your things."
Seeing that his goal was not achieved, Yang Dehua did not take anything away.
He pretended to be extremely sad and cried:
"Brother, before Mom died, you promised her that you would take good care of me!
Now, it’s only been a few years since my mother passed away, and you don’t care about me anymore?”
