Chapter 426: Saving Your Face
Bai Yunsong looked at her and didn't realize her mistake at all. His eyes darkened.
"My cousin shouldn't be involved in what happened today. If something goes wrong, how do you want me to explain it to my fourth uncle and aunt underground?"
After hearing the cousin's scolding, Bai Yunxi smiled.
"My cousin is worrying too much. I won't put myself in danger. Besides, I also believe in my cousin Yunshan's execution ability. He won't do anything he's not sure about. As for me, I just want to delay the time and distract the other party. Just pay attention.”
"Also, there are so many young and middle-aged men in the village. If there is a fight, do you think I should be allowed to carry the guy? My cousin should know better than me about the situation just now. If we don't get the food back today, we will grow taller. Ambition has destroyed the prestige of our village.
In the early stage, the refugees kept testing the bottom line of the villagers. People's hearts are greedy, and everything has one and two consequences. If you want to curb it, you must let the other party retreat when it is difficult.
Let them know that the villagers in Willow Bay are not easy to mess with, so they will not easily risk entering the village to steal food.
"My cousin is honest, he should be more thoughtful than we thought. Fortunately, the result is good. My cousin is frowning, is there anything he is not dissatisfied with?"
Listening to Bai Yunxi's question and seeing the faint mockery in her eyes, Bai Yunsong's face looked a little unnatural.
But when he thought of her going directly to Baiyun Mountain, he felt unhappy.
"Although my cousin is brave and decisive in doing things, you are a female child after all. If you get injured, it will always be bad. Also, you also know that there are many young and middle-aged people in our village, so where can we use them? To get ahead of you?"
"If people knew about it, they would think that there is no one in Willow Bay. In the future, cousin, it's better to protect yourself first. After all, you still have a big family to raise. Men are responsible for matters in the village. It’s enough to call the shots.”
As soon as Bai Yunsong said these words, not only Bai Yunxi felt resentful, but even Bai Yunshan and the old patriarch next to him couldn't help frowning at him.
Before the two of them could speak, Bai Yunxi couldn't help but chuckle,
"My cousin is really not an ordinary pedantic and hegemonic person...but some things are not just words. In the situation just now, if my cousin Yunshan hadn't been courageous, what would my cousin have planned to do?"
"Do we have to keep trying to reason with the other party and make them return the food willingly?"
Bai Yunxi said with mockery in her eyes,
"The situation just now was like two armies confronting each other. I was the forerunner and the one who called the message. The specific executor had to be the military commander. But from the beginning to the end, the big cousin did nothing. If it weren't for Yunshan's cousin guiding the villagers If we cooperate with each other and grab them, the food might be carried away by the refugees."
"If my cousin doesn't move, why don't you allow us to find a way to save ourselves?"
Being humiliated by Bai Yunxi unceremoniously in front of everyone, Bai Yunsong's face was a little helpless, and he shook his sleeves and snorted coldly.
"Chief Li has arrived. Even if we do nothing, the refugees will not dare to run away with the food."
"That's nice to say. If Chief Li doesn't come, does my cousin have a solution?"
"You are making strong excuses. Chief Li has already arrived and the matter is a foregone conclusion. You just did nothing more."
"My cousin made a mistake. It's just a coincidence that Chief Li led the team here today. It can be considered that our village is lucky and we don't need to take action."
