Traveling through ancient times, I led my family to prosperity

As for the matter of awe, let’s talk about it for now. It’s not something that can be developed in a short period of time. Let’s make them afraid of the Sheng family first.

So as soon as Xiaowen left, Dajiang brought a bench for Xiaolan to sit on. "My opinion is, we should send you to the government office and let the officials judge. The officials are fair and the law is always right."

After hearing what Xiao Lan said, the two thieves screamed in fear. The wife of one of them mustered up the courage to look at Xiao Lan and said, "Miss Xiao Lan, please be kind. If my master is sent to see the officials, I'm afraid he won't be able to get out. How about this, we will compensate for your family's losses, how about that?"

Xiao Lan pondered for a while and asked, "My family's losses? My family was frightened, how can we calculate the losses we suffered?"

"If I calculate too much, you will say that I am cheating you. If I calculate too little, I will feel uncomfortable." Xiao Lan said.

The little thief was so anxious that he finally spit out the cloth in his mouth. Hearing what Xiao Lan said, he was really anxious. He asked in a rough voice, "This is not allowed, that is not allowed. What do you want?"

"They say that if a thief's hands and feet are cut off, he will no longer be a thief. I want to try the effect." Xiao Lan said after thinking for a while with her head tilted.

The thief was frightened when he heard Xiao Lan say this. He was pale and said with his tongue sticking out, "You...you shouldn't go too far...I just went to your shed yesterday, but I didn't do anything...I was also frightened by your workers...I haven't settled the score with you yet..."

After hearing this, Xiao Lan's face immediately darkened. "It seems that you guys don't admit to stealing last night?"

The little thief felt a huge pressure from Xiao Lan's cold gaze. He didn't dare to deny it completely, so he could only choke and say, "Anyway, you can't cut off my hands and feet. If I lose my hands and feet, how can I make a living?"

Seeing that everyone was staring at his hands, he couldn't help but hurriedly said, "I'm not talking about being a thief. I'm talking about working in the fields. How can I work in the fields without my hands and feet? I can use my legs and arms to work in the fields."

Everyone then turned their eyes away.

Not only people from Shengjiatun were watching the scene, but people from other villages also came to watch the fun after hearing the news. Of course, people from Guihuali were also among the onlookers.

At this time, the villagers in Guihua Village pleaded for them, "Miss Xiaolan, you are a girl after all, why do you keep shouting about fighting and killing? In my opinion, you should show some mercy. I think they know they are wrong. If you really cut off their hands and feet, how can they support their whole family?"

Someone else whispered to Xiao Lan, "These two little thieves are from the neighboring village. Your rabbit factory is located in their Guihua Village. They have many relatives, young and old. You really pissed them off this time. I'm afraid your family will be in a lot of trouble in the future."

"That's right. I think it's almost enough. Otherwise, there will be trouble between us and Guihuali villages in the future."

Xiao Lan lowered her head and thought for a moment, then glanced at the crowd and found that there were quite a few people who came to watch the excitement outside their house. Most of them were strangers, so she knew that many of them came here to listen to the noise, so she said, "It's okay if you don't cut off their hands and feet, just let Uncle Zhou slap them on the shoulder, which will be a punishment for you."

Uncle Zhou, whose real name was Zhou Shi, was the worker working in the rabbit factory who caught the two thieves this time.

After hearing this, the thief couldn't believe what he heard, "Just a pat on the shoulder? Not cutting off our hands and feet, and not sending us to see the official?"

Xiao Lan nodded with a smile.

The little thief who was talking to Xiao Lan was overjoyed. He stood up from the ground with difficulty and said to Xiao Lan, "Come on, let me start first."

Xiao He quickly took out a kitchen knife from home and cut the ropes on the two thieves. The thieves stepped forward, relaxed their shoulders and said with a relaxed look on their faces, "Let me do it first."

Zhou Shi was originally a soldier, and now he was limping because of his leg injuries in the battlefield. But he was a generous person, and he said to the thief, "I didn't realize that you are such a straightforward person." Then he slapped the thief on the shoulder.

Then the crowd immediately heard a "click" sound, followed by the little thief's screams and his lying on the ground in cold sweat.

"Boss, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me..." The little thief's wife hurried forward and hugged him.

"Yeah, what's wrong with you? What did you do to my son? Why did he become like this?" The little thief's mother stepped forward and asked.

Xiao Lan sneered, and then said to the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, "Don't use too much strength, otherwise the bones in his shoulder will be broken, and then it can't be put back together."

After hearing what Xiao Lan said, the little thief stared at her angrily. He opened his mouth but didn't say a word. It wasn't that he didn't want to say anything, but he was in so much pain that he couldn't speak.

When Zhou Shi saw the host being questioned, he walked aside and said to himself, "Actually, I didn't use much strength just now, it was just a light tap..."

Zhou Shi stretched out his hand and gently tapped the stone next to him. Then, right before everyone's eyes, a stone half a person's height cracked open and then broke into pieces...

The thief's wife watched Zhou Shi's series of actions, howled, then hugged her husband and said to herself, "Your arm is broken, what should I do? What should I do? Sheng Xiaolan, you have such a cruel heart, such a cruel heart."

Xiao Lan smiled and said to her, "Who said I'm cruel? I'm the kindest person ever. I wanted to chop off both of his hands and feet, but out of kindness I left him intact and only slapped him. Besides, he just agreed to it."

Then her expression changed, and she said to the remaining thief, "Now it's your turn!"

The little thief was frightened by Zhou Shi's actions just now. He knelt on the ground with weak legs, crying, "Auntie, I really know I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again. Please be magnanimous and forgive me this time. I promise that I will avoid you, your Sheng family, and your assets in the future. Please forgive me."

One of the people from Guihua Village who was watching the scene stood up and looked at the thief's injuries, then temporarily fixed the wound with a branch, and then stood up and said to Xiao Lan, "Little girl, I advise you to forgive others when you can. Don't go too far. Although the two of them made mistakes, they are still our people from Guihua Village after all."

Seeing that someone who could speak up and make the decision had finally arrived, Xiao Lan stopped beating around the bush with him, "Why is it that when someone in Guihua commits a crime, not only do you not let anyone talk about it, but you also have to come and trouble the victim?"

The man gritted his teeth, knowing that no matter how much this matter was said, the people in Guihua were in the wrong first. "Although they were wrong in this matter, how clean can you be? Didn't you plan that they would steal, so you caught them when they just approached? Your family didn't suffer any loss, but his arm was broken, and his family's livelihood was cut off. You are a little too overbearing, girl."
