Traveling through ancient times, I led my family to prosperity

"Second sister, I just said a few words to our grandfather. I said, Grandpa, don't worry. I know you feel sorry for my uncle and second uncle. Our family has known for a long time that my uncle harmed my second sister. If it were someone else, no matter who he was, we would not forgive him! But it happened for such a long time. Our family did not seek revenge, and we never did anything to the old house... Not only did we not do anything, we also treated their elders with respect as if nothing had happened... And in the matter of Pang Xiu'e, everyone saw how we did it. Grandpa, our family dares to say that we have done our best for the old Sheng family. It is only others who have let us down, not us. The only person our family has let down is my second sister..."

"We will not pursue the matter of you selling my second sister. It's not for any other reason, but because you and my grandmother are old. But we have seen through the character of my eldest uncle and second uncle. From now on, we can't regard them as ordinary good people."

"Besides, this is not the first time they have done something wrong. They have done it again and again. First it was my own niece, then it was my own sister... If we continue to tolerate it, who will be the next one? We can't let them harm everyone in our family one by one, right?"

"Master, we can't just think about ourselves. We have to think about others and the people in our village. If they want to harm the people in our village again, we will really become sinners."

Xiaolan gave Xiaowen a thumbs up.

Then Xiaowen continued, "When Grandpa heard what I said, he became even more anxious, blinking his eyes and yelling." Then I said, I understand what he meant. He said that the matter of expelling the eldest and second uncles from the family would be decided when they get better. But now, the matter has been exposed by Pang Xiu'e. If the family does not punish the two, it may have a bad impact. People in the village will say that this person harmed his own niece and sister but nothing happened. If people in the village follow suit in the future, it will be bad.

Xiao Lan nodded repeatedly as she listened. Xiao Wen was now speaking and doing things in an increasingly methodical manner. "Have you decided on how to punish them in the end?"

"Finally we discussed and decided to beat them 15 times a day until our master recovered and could talk again," Xiaolunwen said.

"Xiao Wen, how did you come up with this idea? This is a great idea." Xiao Lan said. Given the old man's protective nature, even if he got better, he would definitely not be willing to kick Sheng Nuo and Sheng Kai out of the house, so the current punishment of beating them with a stick every day was a great idea.

Xiao Lan really likes the idea of ​​making the two brothers suffer every day. She can't help but wonder, do Sheng Nuo and Sheng Kai hope that Old Master Sheng will get better sooner or later? And the old man is thinking whether he wants to get better sooner or later. "I hope these fifteen strokes of the cane every day will teach them a lesson." Xiao Lan said, "Xiao Wen, where will they be beaten by the cane then?"

"It's on the central street of our village. The headman said that when people are beaten with sticks, they should beat gongs and drums to let everyone go and watch. This is also a wake-up call to everyone." Xiao Wen said.

From that day on, the brothers Sheng Nuo and Sheng Kai went to the central street of the village every day at noon to receive the fifteen strokes of the cane, and then returned to the old house surrounded by the children of the village. When they returned home, the two brothers could not be idle, because during the chat that day, everyone said that the two brothers should serve the old man well to show their filial piety. Therefore, after the two brothers returned home, they had to take care of the old man's excrement and urine, and they also rested in the old man's room at night to facilitate serving the old man when he got up at night.

That night, the head of the village and the elders had dinner at Xiaolan's house and had a good sleep after dinner.

The next day, the businessman surnamed Zhao came to Xiaolan's house early to apologize. Xiaolan thought about it and understood. As a businessman who traveled all over the country, whether it was to save Pang Xiu'e or to redeem the trouble Pang Xiu'e had caused yesterday, in order not to offend the Sheng family too much, he could not delay the apology. The earlier he came, the more sincere he was.

The businessman surnamed Zhao brought a lot of gifts. He said he didn't know that Pang Xiu'e had not completely cut off ties with her former husband's family. If he knew, he would definitely not accept Pang Xiu'e. He said that Pang Xiu'e told him that she was divorced... This time when Pang Xiu'e returned to Taihe Town, she told him that she was back to pick up her family... He really didn't expect that Pang Xiu'e would actually knock on the door of the old Sheng family...

Xiaowen sent Xiaoxi to say these words when he and Shengxuan were receiving the businessman named Zhao.

Zhang easily believed Xiaoxi's words. Xiaolan thought about it and believed it halfway. This businessman surnamed Zhao was from another county after all. Xiaolan didn't believe him and didn't understand that a powerful dragon couldn't suppress a local snake. Now that he said that, Xiaolan didn't completely believe it.

"Alas, I don't know if this Zhao guy will still want Pang Xiu'e after all this." Zhang sighed and said, "If he doesn't want Pang Xiu'e, then she will be left with nothing, and she will be in trouble..."

Xiao Lan didn't sympathize with Pang Xiu'e at all, and said directly, "She can't blame anyone, it's all her own fault..."

Finally, to Zhang's surprise, the man surnamed Zhao said that if the old Sheng family didn't want Pang Xiu'e anymore, Sheng Xuan and Xiao Wen should show mercy and let him do whatever they wanted, even if they didn't allow him to do so; if the old Sheng family still wanted Pang Xiu'e, he was willing to make compensation, because he really didn't know about this beforehand. Then he bowed to Sheng Xuan and Xiao Wen repeatedly.

As for whether Pang Xiu'e should stay or go, Xiaowen sent Xiaoxi to ask the mother and daughter for their opinions. Zhang was an easy person to talk to, so she said that as long as she didn't come to Shengjia Village in the future and didn't disturb each other, it would be fine.

Xiao Lan thought about it and agreed. After all, Pang Xiu'e was an insignificant person, and it would not be a big deal if she was allowed to follow the businessman.

Finally, the businessman surnamed Zhao promised to restrain Pang Xiu'e and never let her set foot in Taihe Town. Then he left with gratitude to Xiaolan's family.
