"The decision from above is good, but what if the men can't come up with that much money and can't find jobs? It's useless to promise the original wives something but fail to deliver on it."

Xiao Yun asked Xu Jianzhou this after reading the newspaper.

Xu Jianzhou answered, "The government will keep an eye on them. The only people who can do this are those who really don't know about it like me, or those who are really impersonated by others. Most of them have been promoted and made a fortune. At least their salary is not low, otherwise they can't afford to support a concubine.

Even if they cannot pay the money all at once, the wages can be paid in installments. The government will ask their units to implement it directly without going through them.

Their work will also be arranged by their units. As long as you still want to use these people, you will always have to pay some price. Although their character may be flawed, most of their work abilities can be confirmed.

The local government will also help with the arrangements, which is compensation for the original wives. In the future, they will also keep an eye on the man’s family and not allow them to disturb the lives of the original wives…”

"That's quite thoughtful. Hey...if you really change your mind, I can have money and a job...Oh no! I'm just kidding, just saying~"

Xiao Yun’s fantasy ended with Xu Jianzhou’s gnashing teeth and dark face.

With the participation of Xiao Yun and No. 11, the hidden personnel and bandits here were mostly cleared out within two months. Only a few who hid too deep and never showed up were not found. The rest were either arrested or got the news in advance and fled to the other side.

Among them, Xiao Yun and No. 11 intercepted two small boats in the middle of the night. After interrogation, they collected the property on the boats, destroyed the people on the boats and released them. It would be better to let them go to the other side. They would only become a burden and could not make any contribution.

After staying in Min Province for half a year, the three of them returned to their old district to deal with their house and belongings.

They had originally gone there to escape famine, and it wasn't really their hometown, so they decided to follow Xu Jianzhou. They would live wherever he worked, and it wouldn't be a big deal to be separated.

Originally, Cheng Jinhua planned to go back alone. Her child was still young, and it would be a pain to carry her back and forth. However, Xiao Yun and Xu Jianzhou were worried. It was not safe on the road now. What's more, Cheng Jinhua was Xiao Yun's mission target, and she would never let her out of her sight.

So in the end the three of them returned to the old district as a group. This time they still took the special carriage for children, but they arrived back in Yanshi in the afternoon, and there was no bus going back at all.

They had no choice but to stay in a guesthouse in the city for one night. At night, Xiao Yun took No. 11 for a stroll. The places where Dieter had been before had been replaced by new owners, and the underground passages and basements had also been filled up.

There were also a few shops that changed owners and businesses. I don't know if they were also involved, but it seems they also went through a major cleanup.

The night was very peaceful. The next morning they took the first bus back to the county, then returned to the town from the county, bought some food in the town, and then returned to the village.

After all, we will be staying for a few days, and it is impossible to handle it all at once, so we must prepare some food.

Most of the luggage they brought were local specialties they bought there, which they intended to give as gifts to a few families they were on good terms with.

Fortunately, most of the things were dry goods and not too heavy, otherwise it would have been difficult to walk back to the village from the town.

As soon as they reached the big locust tree at the entrance of the village, they were surrounded by Aunt Qiu Ju and others who were chatting there.

"I saw from a distance that you look like me. I told these women that they didn't believe me. I told them that I have a very good eye. Are you convinced?"

Aunt Huifen's loud voice was the first to be heard.

"I give up, you are a clairvoyant, okay? Jinhua, what took you so long to come back? We thought you would be back in ten days or half a month at most."

After Aunt Qiuju finished speaking to Aunt Huifen, she turned to Cheng Jinhua and helped take some things over, preparing to send them home.

"That is to say, if you are coming back, you can send me a message in advance. I will ask my husband, Lao Kan, to pick you up in town, so that you don't have to walk so far with your belongings."

This is Aunt Xiuyun from Uncle Kan’s family.

"There was something going on in Jianzhou, so we were delayed. We didn't have any definite news when we came back, so we didn't bother you all." Cheng Jinhua replied with a smile.

"No matter how troublesome it can be, we are all from the same village. Isn't it normal for us to help each other?" Aunt Xiuyun said angrily.

The group of people walked towards the village, talking and laughing. Xiao Yun lagged behind a few steps. Looking at the lively people in front of him, he felt relaxed. It was indeed more comfortable to deal with simple and honest people.

When we arrived at the door of the house, several aunts helped us put our things down, exchanged a few words of greeting, and then left.

Cheng Jinhua looked at the familiar courtyard, feeling a mixture of emotions in her heart.

As soon as they walked into the house, Cheng Jinhua began to clean up, and Xiao Yun and Sheng Li also helped to organize the things.

They planned to live in a cave, just for two days.

Of course, the main reason was that during the time Xiao Yun and Xu Jianzhou lived in the same room, Xu Jianzhou was not kicked off the bed again. Cheng Jinhua felt that she should have corrected that habit over the years.

When they had almost finished cleaning up, a few more waves of people came, all bringing food. Some brought steamed bread and dry food, and some brought vegetables. Every family grew vegetables in this season, so they picked some and brought them to them.

In the meantime, Aunt Qiuju was helping to clean up the yard and also talking about what had happened here during the time they were away.

Those who were about to divorce and had a big fight before, had someone sent down from above to take care of it two months ago. They fought for the woman and got her a house, a job, and money, which caused a lot of trouble for the man's family.

There was originally a promising person in the family, and their lives were much better than other families. But in the divorce, the original wife took him away. Not to mention the man's parents, even his brothers and sisters were not happy.

Because several families are unwilling to divorce and want to take the women over to live there, but two families' women's families are very supportive and say that they don't want such men anymore. Who knows if they are harboring bad intentions and want to kill the man and then marry him again.

After all, the place is unfamiliar to a woman, and if something goes wrong there, no one will be able to help her.

There are also those who are prepared to make do with it. It’s already passed, and they don’t know what will happen next.

The family of the woman who had committed suicide also received compensation. Some were given money, some were arranged with jobs. Anyway, no one made a fuss anymore.

There is also Guan Chunni, who had already decided to divorce, and had taken her child and dowry back. But as soon as this instruction came down, she received another compensation and was arranged a job in a guesthouse in the county, which was considered pretty good.

Later, Cheng Jinhua also told them about Xu Jianzhou, saying that it was all an enemy conspiracy and Xu Jianzhou was not aware of it.

Of course, they didn’t say that they were the ones who reported the matter, for they were worried that if it got out, the man’s family would come and sack them in the middle of the night.

They also mentioned in passing that they were going to Min Province to deal with the cave dwelling and fields. There were not many fields, less than five acres, and they were going to give them directly to the village and see who wanted the cave dwelling and then sell it to him (her).

The cave was dug after they fled here, and it’s only been there about ten years. It’s in good condition and can be sold for some money.

When Aunt Qiuju heard this, she said that her family wanted it. It just so happened that the two families were neighbors, and when the time came to divide the property, the house would be given directly to her second son's family, and the old couple and the eldest son would live in the original house.

Aunt Huifen wants to buy land, so it's better for her to give less money than to give it away to the village for nothing.

Cheng Jinhua stopped her and told her that the policy might change and the land might be nationalized at that time, so she should not waste her money.

This was actually what Xiao Yun speculated with her. The reason was that she wanted to buy land in the suburbs of Le County to grow crops and vegetables. She had been farming all her life and felt insecure without any land in her hands.

Xiao Yun gave her a rough guess based on the subsequent development trajectory and successfully convinced her, and she kept it in mind.

To be honest, these acres of land are not good land and can't be sold for much money. Instead of being scolded in the future, it is better to give it directly to the village and leave a good reputation.

Aunt Qiuju and Aunt Huifen were surprised when they heard this. They were planning to buy a few acres of land to divide among their children. If they could not own the land in the future, all their money would be wasted.

Of course, Cheng Jinhua also told them not to spread the news. After all, the policy had not yet been implemented, and it would be bad if trouble occurred.

The two of them knew the seriousness of the matter and promised not to tell anyone about it.
