OMG! Tyrant's Pampered Baby Is a Valued Princess-Chapter 924: Lazy and Wicked

The Xiu Luo Envoys were aggressive, and seeing the villagers’ unfriendly tone, they immediately gripped their swords and stepped forward.

Mo Yanchi was unwilling for a conflict to occur and hurriedly stopped them.

He took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to the leading villager.

"Take a look, I’ve entrusted a friend to make arrangements with Village Chief Huang Buren in advance. I will bring my students to paint in Jiangdu Village for two days."

The villagers frowned, glancing at the words on the paper.

They had basically not been educated.

"Go to the village chief’s house, we don’t understand these things!"

Thus, led by the villager, Mo Yanchi and the students had to follow him toward the village chief’s house.

Along the way, Bai Zhi’er felt somewhat puzzled.

She whispered to Feng Fuce, "I’ve always advocated for setting up public schools in various parts of Great Chu over the years."

"Logically, while each household might not be entirely illiterate, they should at least recognize some characters."

"These young people are all youth, and yet they haven’t studied or attended public schools, which is really strange."

After all, anyone who could complete a month’s course at a public school would receive a bag of grain and rice oil from the local government.

This was one of Bai Zhi’er’s ideas.

Using the things people need most to encourage them to read and write.

Generally speaking, no one would refuse it.

Families with elderly members would urge their children to go to public school for one month.

Feng Fuce glanced at the villagers ahead.

His gaze was obscure like an abyss.

"If it’s a bunch of parasites, too lazy even to fetch rice oil, then it’s no surprise."

Bai Zhi’er nodded in agreement.

She didn’t quite like this village.

Although, before coming, she heard from her master that the villagers here grew up drinking the waters of Long River, and it’s a place full of talent and vitality.

But after arriving, she only felt an oppressive atmosphere, the mountain’s vibes stagnant and unmoving.

Which made someone like her, born with a celestial body, feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Upon reaching the village chief’s house, a man over fifty came out upon hearing the commotion.

After a few introductions, Mo Yanchi stepped forward to greet, "Village Chief Huang, I come recommended by my friend Lv Qian. These are my students."

Village Chief Huang Buren squinted his eyes, looked over the letters several times.

He then raised his head and glanced at Bai Zhi’er and the others.

"Master Lv has mentioned it to you, right? There aren’t many vacant houses in our village. In order to make space for you to live, we also reached some agreements and communication with the villagers."

"If you live here and eat the local produce, you can’t just eat for free. Master Mo, you being a scholar, should understand this principle."

Mo Yanchi nodded, "I understand the village chief’s meaning."

He took out a silver note worth a hundred taels from his sleeve and handed it over.

Huang Buren accepted it, then nodded and instructed a young villager.

"Lead them to that row of low houses behind the mountain."

Everyone followed and walked up the hillside.

Feng Fuce lagged two steps behind.

His hearing was exceptional, and although there was some distance, he still heard the village chief’s whispered argument with another young man.

"Village chief! Didn’t you say they were all commoners? This group of young lords and ladies, just one look and you can tell they come from wealth; if they discover our matters, we’re finished!"

"Lv Qian didn’t explain clearly in the letter either. They’ve arrived, and I have no reason to drive them away. You go and caution everyone to be careful not to say anything they shouldn’t!"

"If necessary, I’ll have someone scare them off ahead of time! We must not let our major affairs be delayed."

"Don’t act recklessly, these people can’t be offended, or it will be troublesome to attract soldiers. Follow my instructions in everything!"

Feng Fuce slightly turned his side, his thin, cold gaze filled with dark severity.
