The people in Lihua Village spent several days in tension and anxiety.

"Where are you people?"

Huang Jun had been tied up for many days, his hands and feet were stiff. When questioned, he answered weakly:

"We... don't know. We only know that they went to Feng County."

"You can let us go, we promise to leave immediately."

"My mother is still waiting for me to come home."

"We just followed them out, saying we have something to eat. Please let us go. My father still needs me to take care of him in his old age."

The Huang Juns at the scene burst into tears, especially the sentence "Dad is still waiting for me to take care of him in his old age", which made Li Wanshu feel sad.

Everyone in Lihua Village came out to discuss, "Village Chief, how about we go to the city to get some information? Alas, those guys look about the same age as my family. If they really die in our hands, that would mean more than 20 lives have been lost."

Thinking of the three Huang Jun soldiers who were guarding the village entrance that day, they still feel scared when they wake up in the middle of the night. If these more than 20 lives were really lost in their hands, they would not be able to bear it.

Li Wanshu secretly wiped away his tears. They couldn't just sit there and wait for death, otherwise they would be restless every day. "Who of you will go to the city with me?"

The news was brought back in the evening.

The emperor really came.

Caught the traitor of Gu family.

How do they know?

All the members of the Gu family were killed and hung at the city gate. I heard that the one in the middle whose stomach was ripped open was the current concubine.

Is the emperor cruel?

People don't think so.

Orders were given to open porridge shops, distribute medicines, and send troops to help repair damaged houses.

But when they went in and out of the city, looking at the hanging corpse, they always felt that the ghost was floating over their heads.

"Then...what about those yellow soldiers?" someone asked.

Li Wanshu glanced at the hall and replied, "Let them go. Many of them are the same age as our children. I can't bear it."

"What if they come back to retaliate against us?"

Li Wanshu shook his head: "People are all made of flesh and blood. They are just poor people who are being persecuted."

……

Song Li was eating the hawthorn cake that Su Xiaoxiao brought back from the city, and watched the villagers blindfold these Huang Jun and take them away.

She looked up at the gradually clearing sky: How did these people in the village live to this age?

If you cover your eyes, you can’t find it?

They all had murderous intentions towards the villagers, and they let the people they had killed go without fear of retaliation.

Hey~

She hoped that these yellow soldiers could return to the south quickly. As long as they did not disturb her and her sister's lives, she would not care.

Winter is almost over, she is almost withering like grass.

Just after the Chinese New Year, everyone started to work on the fields, and the snow in the soil had to be cleared quickly. On the one hand, too much snow would oppress the soil and affect the root development of wheat; on the other hand, when the snow melted, the soil would have too much moisture, which would cause the wheat leaves to be wet and easily cause diseases and insect pests.

Fortunately, this snow did not have much impact on the wheat. Looking at the tender green wheat seedlings emerging from the field, the stone in everyone's heart finally fell to the ground, and everyone showed relieved smiles on their faces.

After the snow was cleared, the village’s first priority was to rebuild the houses.

Su Xiaoxiao also plans to join the house-building efforts.

If you want to build a house, you must first apply to the village.

Years ago, Su Xiaoxiao had discussed this matter with Li Wanshu, and now she only needed to choose a site to build the house.

You can choose wasteland. If you choose land to grow crops, you have to discuss with the land owner, pay a certain fee, and report to the government.

The news that Su Xiaoxiao was going to renovate her house spread in the village. Everyone thought that she had made money and it was normal for her to live separately from her brothers-in-law. However, the news of "divorce" shocked everyone.

Li Wanshu was so surprised that he couldn't speak: "You guys got divorced?"

Previously, Yang Bailan and Li Mingping had a huge quarrel, and even their son-in-law intervened before they finally divorced. As for the reason, everyone knew it.

But everyone couldn't understand why Su Xiaoxiao and Lin Shijia got divorced?

Some people said that Lin Shijia looked down on Su Xiaoxiao. After all, Lin Shijia was a scholar now and was about to go to the Fuzhou Academy for further studies. Maybe he would become a juren one day...

But some people refuted, saying that Su Xiaoxiao looked down on this poor scholar. After all, Su Xiaoxiao is a boss now.

There are so many educated people in the village, but none of them has made a name for themselves. Do you want to be an official?

You’re dreaming. Now even a small official is controlled by aristocratic families.

The public says that the public is reasonable, and the mother says that the woman is reasonable.

Some people think it's a pity, this talented man and rich woman are a match made in heaven. Some people secretly feel lucky that this golden phoenix might fly to their home.

No matter what everyone argued, Li Wanshu's words "divorce letter" reminded Su Xiaoxiao.

You should still ask clearly about the procedures that need to be completed, so as to avoid any small details that may cause trouble in the future.

On the day Lin Shijia took his younger brothers to Fuzhou, Su Xiaoxiao went to see them off.

"This is the money you paid to redeem me, and the money I will pay for living in your house later."

The bag was full of silver, and it felt heavy for Lin Shiji to hold.

Lin Shijia felt a little bitter, and even his words were a little sarcastic: "Miss Su, you really have the temperament of a businessman. You want to measure everything with money."

After saying this, he regretted it. He glanced at Su Xiaoxiao and saw that this person was actually staring at the divorce papers in his hand.

"Take it."

Su Xiaoxiao quickly accepted it and said with a smile: "Thank you for your help during this period. Please don't forget me when you become rich."

Lin Shijia was a little annoyed by Su Xiaoxiao's heartless appearance. But he also felt that his anger was ridiculous, and he felt powerless, like punching cotton.

"Farewell."

Before getting on the carriage, Lin Shijia looked back three times. If he saw Su Xiaoxiao stop at him even once, he would give it a try.

Su Xiaoxiao jumped onto Song Ran's donkey cart and said, "Let's go to Xunzhenlou to spend some money tonight."
