Traveling through ancient times, I led my family to prosperity

The saddest thing is their family of four.

Sheng Xuan was indeed more confident than the fourth brother, but he was also a little panicked, "Xiao Lan... Xiao Wen..."

"Dad, don't worry," Xiao Lan said, "If it's inconvenient for you to come, let Xiao Wen talk to the county magistrate tomorrow so that you and Fourth Uncle don't have to go to Hejian County."

"Well, I'll go to the county government office tomorrow," Xiao Wen said, "Uncle Four, neither you nor my father needs to go."

Everyone in the room couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they heard this, especially Sheng Hao's family of four.

"Xiao Wen, I thank you very much. I kowtow to you..." Liu pretended to kneel down and kowtow to Xiao Wen.

Xiaoting and Xiaolan were nearby and hurried to support Liu. However, Xiaoye and Xiaotao were quick and knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Xiaowen while everyone was supporting Liu.

"Ye'er, Xiaotao, what are you doing?" Xiaowen naturally refused to be kowtowed to by the brother and sister, and he quickly stood up and made way.

Seeing this, Xiaoting and Xiaolan hurriedly let go of Liu and turned around to help Xiaoye and Xiaotao up.

Things haven't been accomplished yet, but Sheng Hao's family of four all understand that as long as Xiao Wen asks for the hands-free service, the county magistrate will give him this favor, otherwise, he really might not be able to escape jail.

"What crime did they commit over there? Why are they mentioning me and your fourth uncle?" Sheng Xuan asked.

"They embezzled a lot of money," Xiao Wen said, "I told the county magistrate that neither of us has received a penny from them."

"Wait a moment, let's find a few villagers to sign a letter of guarantee for us, and then I'll ask the county magistrate to act as a guarantor for us, and it will be almost done..."

"Pang Fei confessed about the corn seeds. He pushed all the responsibility onto Hejian County. If Hejian County comes to pick someone up in a few days, let them take the old Pang family father and son away and take them to Hejian County for a confrontation."

After explaining these things to Sheng Hao's family, Xiao Wen and Xiao Lan arranged to find someone to sign a guarantee for Sheng Xuan and Sheng Hao. This matter did not take much trouble. After all, everyone saw it. Their two families did not have much contact with Hejian County, and everyone knew what was going on. Xiao Lan's family also made a lot of good friends in Shengjia Village. There were so many workshops in their family, and many people came to work in their family. In addition, Xiao Wen was admitted as a scholar, and seeing that there was a successor, everyone was willing to do a favor for their family.

After receiving the guarantee letter, Xiaowen discussed with Xiaolan and decided to prepare a gift to send to the county government...

Only when the officials from Hejian County took away Pang Fei and his son did everyone finally feel relieved.

Because of the events in Hejian County, people have been in a panic these past two days. After hearing today that the officials had left, Xiaolan's family felt deflated.

"What Xiaoye said a few days ago was so true. These past two days, I've been thinking about all my experiences since I became the daughter-in-law of the Sheng family. The more I think about it, the more I realize that what Xiaoye said is absolutely right."

Sheng Xuan sighed, he had nothing to say. Now that something like this happened in Hejian County, he was really embarrassed at home, and now his status at home was even worse...

"Our family has been harmed so badly by the people from Hejian County, and someone in the village even told my father to let our family and Fourth Uncle's family go to Hejian County to rescue people..." Xiao Lan said angrily.

As soon as Xiao Lan finished speaking, the whole family's eyes fell on Sheng Xuan.

"Did someone really tell you that? Who said it?" Zhang immediately turned around and asked Sheng Xuan.

"I didn't agree," Sheng Xuan said quickly, "We finally got the county magistrate here to guarantee my family so that I wouldn't be transferred. If I go there now, wouldn't that be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth?"

"Father, if Hejian County couldn't make ends meet because of a natural disaster or something, I wouldn't stop you from saving them. But now they have committed a crime, they have done something bad... If we really go over to help them, then where will the people who have been harmed by them go to seek justice? Besides, we can't help much in this matter, we don't have that much ability. Can we go against the law?"

Xiao Lan had no sympathy for the family in Hejian County who went to jail. People should always pay for their choices and for what they did. Since they dared to do bad things and break the law, they should be punished accordingly.

Those who chatted with Sheng Xuan and asked him to go to Hejian County to save people were mostly good-natured people. These people were usually old, had old-fashioned minds, and often took advantage of their seniority.

However, Sheng Xuan did not agree to what these people said, which made Xiao Lan very satisfied. At least, now Sheng Xuan can think independently.

Why did Hejian County bring Sheng Xuan and Sheng Hao over for questioning? Xiao Lan knew it by just thinking about it. It must be someone from the old Sheng family who started to make random accusations. Otherwise, who would remember the two brothers who had separated and lived thousands of miles away?

Although Sheng Xuan refused to go to Hejian County to rescue people, it did not mean that he did not care about the whole family in Hejian County, especially Mr. Sheng and Mrs. Sheng. Sheng Xuan had a mouthful of blisters in the past two days.

"Dad, if we count the days, the results should be out soon. Don't worry or get angry. No matter how worried or anxious you are, I can't help you. You have to take care of yourself and stay healthy." Xiao Lan advised.

The whole family persuaded Sheng Xuan together. He was a reasonable man and knew that he could not do anything about this matter. All he could do now was to wait...

After breakfast in the morning, Sheng Xuan went to the fish pond to watch the farmhands digging the fish pond. This year, his family planned to dig all the depressions along the river that they had bought into fish ponds so that they could raise fish and grow lotus roots next year.

Zhang and Xin were doing needlework at home. As there were many people in the family and the children were growing up, they naturally needed to make more clothes. Xiaolan and Xiaoting were helping them. Everyone in the family was busy with their own things. Xiaolan was about to sigh that time was just right, but when she looked up, she saw Xiaoye running towards her in a panic.

"Sister Xiaolan, the people from Hejian County are back!"

When Xiao Lan heard Xiao Ye say that the people from Hejian County had returned, she felt uneasy and pierced her finger with the needle. She put her hand in her mouth and sucked it to stop the bleeding. When she looked up, she saw Zhang and Xiao Ting repeating her action.
