Village chief Xiao Taiyang called a meeting of the village elders.
After hearing that Xiao Lingyu was going to contract six mountains, the elders entered a heated discussion.
Some agreed while others disagreed.
Those who disagreed were mainly worried about environmental disruption. They didn't want to risk mudslides.
The other worry was that once Xiao Lingyu contracted the mountains, she would restrict the villagers from collecting the mountain resources. Usually, when the villagers were free, they would go up the mountains to chop woods, harvest mushrooms, herbs, and so on. They could already hear the villagers complaining.
Xiao Taiyang said, "How about this? I'll call Xiao Lingyu over. We can ask her in person."
The others nodded and said, "Yes, it's good to get her direct opinion."
After that, Xiao Taiyang went to give Xiao Lingyu a call.
So sweet these two.
