Sun Qiancheng said, "I support it as well. To be honest, we have to keep a tab of the gifts we bring back every time we go out. If we lose too much, we have to find an excuse to hold a banquet. This really takes a lot of brainpower and face. Furthermore, it's very stressful. The poorer we are, the poorer we are. We never know when it will end. I think we should respond to Abbot Fangzheng's call today. Let's stop here and not do this in the future, alright? "
"I support it!" Dog Song shouted as well. "If we are talking about losses, I'm definitely the one who loses! In the past, I didn't even have a sow at home. I couldn't even collect money from the cubs. "
The moment that was said, everyone immediately laughed.
Dog Song continued, "Although I wasn't much in the past, I have never neglected the gifts, right? Didn't I bring gifts to every household? To be honest, back then, I had to put on airs. After the gifts, I wouldn't even have a sip of alcohol for a week. Those days weren't meant for humans at all. "
"Come on! Your gift of a hundred yuan is enough for your entire family to eat for three days. One meal is worth a month's worth of alcohol, "Sun Qiancheng scolded jokingly.
Dog Song blushed. "Let's not talk about the past. I'm now the model soldier of our village! Whoever isn't convinced can sweep the road! "
Everyone laughed again.
Seeing everyone express their stance, Wang Yougui finally stood forward. "Since everyone agrees, I'll say a few words. To be honest, it's tough being a village chief. All of you do something every other day, and I run around every day for such joyous occasions. Many people say that I'm a red-and-white village chief. But they don't know that I'm also a poor village chief. That bit of money is all given to you as gifts. Furthermore, I can't hold any banquets. If I overdo it, I'll be investigated! It's like there's nothing to be gained. It's a terrible loss. Today, I'll thicken my skin and beg everyone. Please spare me. Don't accept gifts of bird feathers in the future. Let's just bring some food and drink to whoever has something good. Let's eat to our hearts' content together, alright? "
"Alright!" Everyone responded.
Upon seeing this, Squirrel leaned over and whispered into Fangzheng's ear. "Master, you are the best. You have the biggest face!"
Fangzheng's face turned ashen. Lone Wolf sucked up to him. "What do you mean big face? This is called Degao, everyone give him face! "
Fangzheng smiled bitterly. "You are overthinking things. Although This Penniless Monk has some morals, it's not enough to change the entire environment. The reason for today's outcome was a result of many factors. The Chen family was a large family clan in One Finger Village, second only to the Wang family. With them taking the lead, the others followed. In addition, everyone had been repressed by the corruption, as well as being moved by the kindness of Yang Hua and Wang Yunfeng's family. Many factors combined to repress the corruption. Therefore, This Penniless Monk did not do anything today. They only used the kindness in their hearts to suppress the evil. "
Monkey nodded and said, "Amitabha. Excellent, excellent."
Dong!
Red Boy punched Monkey. "You stupid monkey, what do you understand? Stop putting on an act."
"Evil cannot prevail over good. No matter how powerful a Yao King is, he will still have to cook for me," Monkey said with a smug look.
Red Boy rolled his eyes. He really wished to smack the stupid monkey to death. He had to rub it in …
"Hehe, enough. Let's hurry up. Yang Hua is the richest man in our village. He hired a chef from the county city. Hehe, I have to try his cooking," exclaimed Dog Song.
"That's right. Hehe, Yang Hua bought more than thirty chickens. He even bought turtles. I'm already salivating. Let's not stand here and brag. Food is more important, "said Sun Qiancheng with a laugh.
"Turtles are good. They're nutritious. Let's go and eat turtles," Wang Yougui added.
"Let's go. Time to eat," Chen Jin shouted as well. Everyone took their seats noisily.
However, Fangzheng was placed in a difficult position. It was clearly an all-meat banquet. He could not bring himself to eat!
At that moment, Yang Ping ran over and said, "Abbot Fangzheng, have a seat over there. There are tables specially prepared for you and a few Buddhist and vegetarian believers. Don't worry. My brother has specially bought a brand new set of pots and pans for you. When the time comes, there will be a professional chef to cook for you. There will be no meat at all, "guaranteed Yang Ping as he patted his chest.
Upon hearing Yang Hua's arrangements, Fangzheng was touched as he thanked him profusely.
While there was no one around, Monkey asked, "Master, are we really that particular? If that's the case, wouldn't it be very troublesome to descend the mountain? "
Fangzheng shook his head. "What we abstain from is the heart, not the food. In fact, we can just use an ordinary pot to cook for us. As long as there's no meat and we don't have any thoughts of meat in our hearts, that would be abstaining from it. Instead, we would deliberately pursue such things, resulting in us falling behind. "
"Master, why didn't you tell Patron Yang?" asked Red Boy.
Fangzheng smiled. "Patron is kind. He has already prepared everything. Why would he say that? It's good that he knows. "
Red Boy, Monkey, Squirrel, and Lone Wolf nodded.
Before long, the food was served. Yang Hua jumped onto a temporary platform and began speaking. "Hello everyone. I'm not a leader, so I don't have much to say. In short, I, Yang Hua, have a son. I'm so happy! Everyone, eat and drink well! Now, let's eat and drink! Once you have your fill, follow me to the school square's stage to watch Two-people Rotation! With Fifth Zhao leading the team, there will definitely be a good show! "
"Alright!" Everyone immediately turned spirited when they heard that as they cheered. Fangzheng also knew of Fifth Zhao. He was considered a famous Two-people Rotation performer in the surrounding villages. He led a team and went everywhere to perform. However, Fangzheng had never really watched those performances. When he was young, Zen Master One Finger did not allow it. When he grew up, he had heard it once. He had returned to the mountain with a flushed face and recited Buddhist scriptures for several days. From then on, he had never watched Two-people Rotation again.
Just as Yang Ping said, Yang Hua had prepared a full set of vegetarian dishes for Fangzheng. The various dishes were prepared by the chef personally, and the dishes were extremely beautiful. As for the taste …
Fangzheng only took one bite!
When he took a second bite, he saw a fat ass facing him. It was grabbing the fried cake in the bowl and stuffing it into its mouth! It was covered in fur and did not look like it had eaten anything, so it was naturally Squirrel.
Fangzheng looked at the embarrassing thing and immediately got some shredded potatoes. He smiled. "Jingkuan, eat this. It's delicious."
Squirrel looked up and saw the glistening delicacy in Fangzheng's hand. He nodded immediately and opened his mouth. Fangzheng stuffed the shredded potatoes in. Then, he saw Squirrel chew happily. His eyes went from astonishment to shock and finally anxiety. Following that, he ran to the side to dig at the sweets in his mouth.
On the other side, Monkey was eating slowly. However, this fellow was secretly stuffing the fruits from the fruit platter into his pockets.
Lone Wolf was the most comfortable. He was sprawled on the ground with a huge basin of food in front of him. He could not even pull his head out. His ass was high up in the air as it faced Fangzheng! Fangzheng looked at the chrysanthemum and sighed. He stabbed it with his chopsticks …
