Chapter 385 Greedy Little Flower Causes Trouble and Injures Someone (1)_1
Mo Yan was well aware that most families in the village were struggling to get by, but that didn’t mean they should set their sights on Little Flower and a dozen or so local dogs, let alone go hunting in the mountains in such severe weather. If anything happened and the villagers were hurt, who would take responsibility?
Thinking of this, she looked at Yang Bao, who wore a troubled expression, and spoke solemnly, "Uncle Yang, let’s not even mention whether we can find game with the dogs in the mountains; just the snow alone makes it hard to see the roads clearly, and one misstep could lead to danger. Besides, there are many wild animals in the mountains, and they have come down to the village before. What if we encounter them by misfortune?"
Yang Bao was stunned. He had only calculated the benefits hunting could bring to the village, without considering the great risks. Thinking about the potential consequences made him somewhat fearful, "To think that at my age, I could be so blinded by such a small profit. I owe it to Yan girl’s warning, otherwise, I really wouldn’t know what kind of trouble I could have caused."
"Uncle Yang is just concerned about the villagers’ hardship and didn’t think it through, that’s all!"
Mo Yan smiled understandingly. She didn’t blame the villagers for being greedy; after all, if they had extra money at home, who would risk their lives for such a venture? It was simply seeing how those local dogs could hunt rabbits that made them momentarily lose their heads.
Seeing Yang Bao wavering, she breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "If Uncle Yang is concerned about the safety of our fellow villagers, there’s no need to feel troubled. Just make the pros and cons clear, and the villagers will understand."
"Yan girl, Uncle gets it, Uncle gets it!" Yang Bao said, his expression relaxing somewhat. Compared to life, that bit of silver truly meant nothing. If anyone in the village didn’t know any better, he would have to exercise his authority as the village head and firmly put an end to it.
