Farmer’s Stepmother’s Skillful Farming

Chapter 398 Heavy Punishment

Besides, I sneaked out to pick up these wheat ears at night. I was afraid I could only pick up half a bag of wheat in one night.

Sun's move, although very hateful, was also hard work.

After all, he, as a husband, earns so little that the life at home is not very comfortable, so much so that Mrs. Sun has to go and steal wheat ears from other people's fields in the middle of the night. .

The more Bai Tushun thought about it, the more guilty he became on his face.

　　First, it was because of his own inability that he got Sun to where he is today.

The second reason is because he heard the people around him criticizing and scolding him and Mr. Sun.

"No matter how much Uncle Li Zheng punishes, our family will recognize it." Bai Tushun added.

"Since you have a good attitude in admitting your mistakes, I won't punish you too much. I will punish you with twenty pounds of wheat per acre according to the number of acres reported by you, and give it to others." Bai Kangyuan He said, "It will be a little later. I will give the number to your family and send it back to your home one by one according to what is written on it."

"Okay, okay." Bai Tushun nodded hurriedly, "Uncle Li Zheng, don't worry, everyone can rest assured, I will definitely return them all."

When Sun heard this, her eyes turned red.

The wheat ears she picked ranged from thirty to twenty acres. Hundreds of kilograms of wheat just went out, which was almost equivalent to the harvest of one mu of land in one year. In other words, this mu of land was completely wasted. .

　　After working hard for so many days and nights, the ears of wheat that I picked up were not even enough to fit into a sack. To return them several times was really like stealing a chicken but losing a lot of rice.

Sun felt that Bai Kangyuan's punishment was too severe, but looking at the disgusted eyes of her fellow villagers, she could only swallow her words again.

As for Bai Kangyuan, he nodded slightly when he saw that Bai Tu complied readily.

 He was punished severely for this matter.

 But I also feel that the punishment must be severe.

Otherwise, if there are so many people in the village, today you will be greedy and pick up the wheat from other people’s fields, and tomorrow someone will take advantage of you and pick up the wheat from your house... This can be said to be the most difficult thing to control. It's a matter of time.

Since the conflicts of interests are too troublesome for the folks in the village, and many things sometimes cannot be distinguished so clearly, then for matters like this that are very clearly distinguished, the punishment should be heavier and everyone should be warned, so as not to let the big guys Taking advantage and causing a lot of trouble.

The man who stole wheat ears was found, and Bai Kangyuan was also fined. This matter has finally come to a temporary conclusion.

　　The people who were watching the excitement stopped staying any longer and dispersed to go home.

 Bai Tushun then helped Mr. Sun get up from the ground.

Before the two of them could breathe a sigh of relief, they felt their stomachs began to rumble, followed by bursts of pain.

“Uncle Sancheng, what’s wrong with us? Is the poison still there?” Bai Tushun was startled and asked hurriedly.

"It's not a big deal. It's about detoxification. You have to run to the latrine before the poison can go away." Bai Sancheng said slowly, "Don't panic, you two, go home quickly and drink some water with a little salt later. ,Enough."

 In other words, this detoxification requires more diarrhea.

 While Bai Tushun was thinking about this, his stomach started to feel painful.

Sun had just drank the most detoxification medicine, and now her reaction was even greater than that of Bai Tushun. She could no longer care about anything, so she ran home holding her stomach.
