Chapter 168 How shameless
Maidong was so angry!
He didn't expect that Shen Yitian was so good at winning people's hearts.
So much meat was served right away, and the villagers actually ate up the whole pig.
For fishermen who rarely eat meat once a year, this pig is much heavier than those seafood.
She had inexplicably gained the title of Dragon Girl, and now she was winning people's hearts like this. Wouldn't she be the one who had the final say in the village from now on?
Look, no one dared to go out to sea these two days. Doesn’t this explain the problem?
This woman is so hateful.
He picked up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth viciously.
Bie Suo, this fatty meat tastes really good.
After the meal, the rain outside had almost stopped.
After finishing their meal, the villagers came to the main table one by one and knelt down spontaneously. Everyone was shouting, "The Dragon Girl is merciful and wishes her a long life."
Maidong was already feeling uncomfortable, and after hearing the villagers shouting like that, he felt even worse.
Shen Yitian was of course not used to being worshipped by everyone like this, so she quickly stood up and dodged.
"You don't have to be so formal. Today's meal is to thank you for helping my family build a house yesterday and to celebrate the completion of my new house. I will probably stay in Maoer Village for a while, and I hope everyone can be kinder and don't let things like that night happen again." She took Shengsheng's hand and said to the villagers.
After she said that, the villagers felt even more embarrassed.
"The Dragon Queen is so kind, and we were clamoring to sacrifice her alive that day. Damn us!"
"Yes, if it weren't for the appearance of the Dragon King, we would have already attacked the Dragon Lady."
"Dragon Lady, please forgive us. We will never do such stupid things again."
They swore and cursed one by one, blaming themselves for what they had done to Shen Yitian that day.
Shen Yitian had no choice but to help an older person up and said, "The past doesn't count. We can just consider ourselves acquaintances today. If there's anything in the future, we can discuss it together. Don't get so excited all the time."
If these people didn't believe in some superstitious conspiracy and wanted to kill her, she wouldn't have used the projector to scare the villagers.
After everyone stood up, she and Shengsheng prepared to go back.
The villagers have been spontaneously cleaning up the ancestral hall. This is the ancestral hall of Maoer Village. They have their own arrangements for where to put everything. Shen Yitian and others don’t know what to do, so they simply don’t make trouble.
After everyone left, Mai Dong said, "We still don't know whether this Shen is the Dragon Queen or not. You guys are always kneeling and kowtowing. Don't you think it's a disadvantage?"
He did see the Dragon King that day. It’s not that he didn’t believe in the Dragon King, but the Dragon King didn’t specifically say that the dragon girl was Shen Yitian. Everything was just understood by the villagers themselves.
Maybe this dragon girl is someone else?
Anyway, deep down he didn't want Shen Yitian to be the Dragon Girl.
This woman comes from a wealthy family. I heard that she is the daughter of the Shen family in Beijing. If she has the identity of a dragon girl, I am afraid that the Mai family will not be able to control this woman.
These villagers are not fools who allow themselves to be led by the nose. The reason they were instigated last time was simply because of the old customs of Maoer Village for many years.
The villagers dared not eat any shrimps or crabs that were big enough, as they firmly believed that they were the Dragon King's soldiers.
Shen Yitian had stepped into a minefield, which was why everyone was shouting about a living sacrifice.
When Maidong said this, someone immediately stood up to refute it.
"It was clearly because we offended the Dragon Lady that day that the Dragon King appeared. Village Chief, what you mean by that is, who else could this Dragon Lady be but Miss Shen?"
"That's right. We offended the Dragon Queen because of what you said that day. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been unable to go out to sea. We have been staying at home for the past two days, and my family is about to run out of food. Village chief, please stop talking nonsense." A woman rolled her eyes and took the bowl in front of Maidong.
There were two bowls in front of Maidong, one containing a fragrant meat and bone soup, and the other containing a few pieces of meat he had picked up and a large bowl of rice.
"I haven't finished eating yet, why are you taking my bowl!" He hurried to grab it.
An old man sitting at the same table with him couldn't bear it and coughed dryly.
"Maidong, that's enough. You ate three big bowls of rice by yourself, and one of the four bowls of meat. Yes, we are old and can't eat as much as you, a young person, but you can't eat your fill and then want to take it back. Honestly, can you really eat another big bowl of rice?"
As early as when Maidong ate three bowls of rice and took a large bowl of meat, the old man at the table couldn't stand it anymore.
It’s just that the host Shen Yitian was there at that time, and she didn’t say anything, so these old people naturally didn’t dare to speak.
But now Shen Yitian is gone and Maidong is full, but he still monopolizes a big bowl of rice and a bowl of meat and refuses to let go. These old people are not happy with this.
We are all smart. Everyone knows that Ophiopogon japonicus is not going to eat it himself, but wants to take this bowl of rice back to his son.
Today his eldest son Mai Song came, and his eldest daughter-in-law also came, but his youngest son did not come to dinner.
This meal must be for his youngest son Mai Shan.
Someone reacted and remembered what Mai Shan said during the day, and immediately started joking.
"Mai Dong, you're not really going to claim that the Dragon Queen will marry into your family. These things are all your family's ideas, right?"
Everyone laughed and thought that the father and son were probably crazy.
Mai Shan is an unlearned man who always catches the least amount of fish every time he goes out to sea. Yet he still dreams of marrying the Dragon Girl.
You know, no one in this village is willing to marry their girl to him.
Even if his father is the village chief, it won’t work.
If he doesn't make progress, it doesn't matter how great his father is.
When Maidong heard everyone's teasing, his face turned very interesting.
He didn't even bother to get back the two bowls that were snatched away. He just flicked his sleeves and walked away grumbling.
He left, but the people who stayed behind didn't take it seriously. Some even divided up the things he had packed earlier.
Nowadays, rice and meat are precious things. We can't just throw them away. It would be such a pity.
The next day, Shen Yitian arrived at the beach early, but Lao Xu came even earlier.
He smiled when he saw Shen Yitian coming over, but deep down he was still a little reluctant to leave the days of teaching exiled prisoners to fish.
It's not like he hadn't taught before, but he never felt this way before.
After all, not everyone would buy all his fish and pay the share set by the court, nor would anyone buy his fish to entertain guests.
After all, he was grateful to Maidong.
If Mai Dong hadn't assigned Shen Yitian to him to learn fishing, he wouldn't have gotten such a good opportunity.
