So what if you flee from famine? Start all over again and live a good life every day

"Village chief, you see their family is fine, they just ran out of clothes and food. We can buy some when we get to the city." Huang Cuihua approached Old Man Lin nonchalantly.

"You still have the nerve to say that? I'll make you pay the Chen family one tael of silver as a lesson to you. If you do it again, go back to where you came from." Father Lin took a step away, putting some distance between himself and Huang Cuihua.

"Huang Cuihua, just talk, stay away from me"

"What? I want one tael of silver for those two broken backpacks? Are those backpacks made of gold or silver?" Huang Cuihua immediately quit when she heard that she had to pay one tael of silver. She wanted to eat and wear good clothes, and if she didn't work in the fields, she wouldn't be able to save even one tael of silver in a year.

"What? You have an opinion? What qualifications do you have to have an opinion? You burned other people's things and food. Food is so precious these days, and you burned it all. I still have to rearrange the clothes. You should be happy that I didn't send you to the government office."

"You think it's too expensive? Don't worry. Besides, your little silver may not even be enough to buy their things."

Lin Lao's wife Zhao Sujuan stood between the two of them, blocking Huang Cuihua's sight and helping out. She was not indulging Huang Cuihua.

"But it's not worth that much. Besides, their family is fine. Can you pay less?"

Huang Cuihua pouted, obviously she hadn't realized the seriousness of the matter yet, and was still bargaining.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense." Father Lin interrupted impatiently, "Go and get the money quickly. If you can't get it, get out of the team."

Huang Cuihua saw that Father Lin had spoken, so she had no choice but to walk towards her luggage in a huff. But taking her money was like asking for her life,

Besides, where did she get the money? She spent every penny she had. She had no money at all. But if she didn't pay, she would be kicked out. If she was kicked out, she would definitely not be able to survive.

In desperation, she looked at her husband Lin Wu. Lin Wu was angry at Huang Cuihua's performance just now. He was still here, and this person wanted to put a hat on him.

He didn't want to pay any attention to her at first, but then he thought, after all, she was still his wife in name only, and he couldn't really stand by and watch her die, even though he didn't want this wife anymore.

"Take it. If you do it again, I will divorce you." Lin Wu took out a tael of silver from his pocket and threw it to Huang Cuihua: "Also, do you think your man is dead?"

Huang Cuihua didn't react to what Lin Wu said at the end. She took the silver and immediately walked towards Lin Lao with a smile on her face. She handed it to Lin Lao with a painful look on her face. "Well, it's just compensation for their family. A bunch of debt collectors, two broken backpacks actually asked me for so much money."

If she hadn't given the money to the Chen family, she would have had so much more delicious food. Thinking of this, she glared in the direction of the Chen family and muttered to herself.

After taking the silver, Father Lin looked at Huang Cuihua and said, "You don't have to feel bad about it. This is just a small lesson. If it happens again, it will be more than just a few silver coins. I'll just kick you out." After saying that, he turned and left.

Huang Cuihua pursed her lips and spat in the direction of the Chen family: "Bah, a bunch of short-lived ghosts, you have the life to take my money, but I wonder if you have the life to spend it."

"Brother Chen," Father Lin said with a guilty look on his face, holding the silver and walking up to the Chen family who were still counting the remaining supplies.

"This is the silver that Huang Cuihua gave you as compensation. I'm really sorry for you. I didn't expect to cause you so much trouble. It's my fault for not managing them well. Please don't mind." Father Lin handed the silver to Old Man Chen. As the head of the village and the leader of this team, he has the responsibility to restrain the villagers.

Old man Chen was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Old Man Lin would actually ask Huang Cuihua to pay one or two taels of silver. He thought Huang Cuihua was from the same village as them, and Old Man Lin would be gentle with her.

Either let it go, or just keep the debt and let it go. I didn't expect the head of Linjia Village to actually send the money. He seems to be an honest man.

"Brother Lin, no one wants to see something like this happen, but this is too much silver. It's just a few rags that are not worth much..." Old man Chen refused to take it.

"Take it, this is the compensation she should pay. Your family has suffered a lot of losses. You have to buy everything again when you get to the county town, and all of these cost money. This little money can be considered as some compensation." Old Man Lin patted Old Man Chen on the shoulder.

Old man Chen nodded gratefully, "Thank you, Brother Lin. I'll accept it then."

Father Lin smiled and said, "Take it quickly and don't refuse it. I'll ask Youcai to send you some food later. I still have some food, which is enough for us to get to the city."

"Village chief, we have enough food. I have some in my basket. We eat little, but this is enough for us." Sui He pulled out his basket, opened a corner, revealing the sweet potatoes inside. There were about a dozen of them.

This was what she had just taken out from her space. She had a lot of space, so she could easily eat it all the way to the next place, or even eat it for another year or two.

Father Lin looked at the food, roughly calculated it, and nodded after confirming that they really had no shortage of food: "Sui He is smart, he knows how to separate the food."

"It's not me." Sui He shook his head and looked at his second grandmother: "This was put there by my grandmother. She said that eggs should not be put in one basket, so she divided the food into three portions and put some in each of our backpacks."

"Well, your grandma is very thoughtful." Father Lin looked at the young man in front of him and nodded to Master Chen: "Then I won't disturb you to clean up. I'll go back first. Remember to call us if you need anything."

Old man Chen felt warm in his heart, "Okay, I will definitely come to you if there is anything."

Seeing Father Lin leave, Master Chen felt bad. If possible, he didn't want such a thing to happen. However, they let down their guard.

Looking at the burnt pots and pans, there was no water, these things were completely unusable, and the wooden handle of the pot was also burnt.

"Grandpa, let's not take these. They are all burned like this. How much water will be needed? And some of them are deformed." Sui He walked forward and looked at the things on the ground with a distressed look on his face.

"You, who haven't taken charge of the household yet, don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil, salt and other necessities are. These things can be used just by swiping them. You don't need to spend money to buy them." The second grandmother walked aside, swept the black dust off the bowl with hay, then took out a piece of rag, dipped it in water and wiped it carefully. After a while, the bowl became much cleaner.

In this way, several pots and bowls were cleaned in a short while. Sui He's mouth twitched, and he resigned himself to going forward to help.

Looking at the blackened rags, I decided that since they were reluctant to throw them away, I would secretly take them to the space and wash them thoroughly before using them.
