After the separation, I took my whole family to eat delicious food and drink spicy

Just as the two were about to flee the scene, the sound of hurried footsteps suddenly rang out from a nearby location, shattering the night's tranquility. Their hearts raced, and they hurriedly hid in the nearby bushes. Several figures, torches in hand, hurried toward the shrimp farm. Leading the way was none other than Zhang Bo, the village's barefoot doctor.

It turned out that Uncle Zhang happened to be up at night. His home was not far from Li Xiaoxiao's shrimp farm, and he heard the barking of his own dog, so he became cautious.

Uncle Zhang opened the gate and took a look. He saw Li Dachun and Li Shen sneaking out of the house. Suspicious, he quietly followed them. Seeing that the two were destroying Li Xiaoxiao's shrimp farm, he was furious. He immediately woke up the neighbors and summoned a few reliable villagers to come together.

The fire illuminated the shrimp farm, revealing all their crimes. Uncle Zhang sternly questioned the two men hiding in the bushes. Seeing their actions exposed, Li Dachun and Li Shen turned pale and stammered, unable to speak. Seeing this, the villagers rushed forward and surrounded them, preparing to take them to the village chief for processing.

When Li Xiaoxiao and her family arrived, they were shocked and angry when they saw this scene.

Bai pointed at Li Shen and the other man and started cursing, "You two are so mean! How could you do such a thing?"

Li Xiaoxiao calmly checked the losses in the shrimp farm and had a plan in mind.

She quickly stepped forward to block the water outlet, then quickly snatched the hoe from Li Shen's hand and restored the ridge that had been dug up by Li Shen. Seeing this, several enthusiastic villagers also came forward to help.

With the help of the villagers, the ridge of the field was barely restored to its original state after a while. Li Xiaoxiao then opened the water inlet to let in water from the river.

After doing all this, Li Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Zhang Bo discovered it early, otherwise he would have suffered heavy losses. Li Xiaoxiao thought carefully.

"Uncles and aunts, thank you so much today. If you hadn't discovered it early, our family would have suffered heavy losses." Li Xiaoxiao said to everyone gratefully.

"Don't worry, little girl. Uncle Zhang is here and won't let the bad guys succeed." Uncle Zhang patted his chest and promised.

"Yes, yes, what Li Dachun and Li Shen did is a disgrace to our village. We will never let them off easily." Other villagers also echoed.

"However, this matter still needs to be handed over to the village chief. I believe the village chief will give you justice." Uncle Zhang suggested.

So, a group of people took Li Dachun and Li Shen to the village.

Li Xiaoxiao looked at their receding backs and secretly vowed in her heart that she must work hard to make money so that her family can live a better life.

At the same time, she also decided to be more careful in the future and not give others any opportunities to take advantage of her.

After learning about the situation, the village chief severely criticized Li Dachun and Li Shen.

"You two are so stupid! How could you do such a thing that harms others and benefits yourself?"

Li Dachun and Li Shen lowered their heads and said nothing.

"Look at how much damage your actions have caused them!" The village chief grew increasingly angry. "I declare that Li Dachun and Li Shen must apologize to Li Xiaoxiao's family and compensate for all the losses! In addition, you will be fined and ordered to clean the village for a month as punishment!"

"Xiaoxiao, think about how much silver you need to compensate for the loss of the shrimp farm. I will ask them to compensate you as soon as possible." The village chief turned and said gently to Li Xiaoxiao.

Li Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, "Village Chief, the crayfish in my shrimp farm are now in the egg-laying stage, which is an important stage for reproduction. Now that something like this has happened, not only have most of the crayfish in the shrimp farm escaped, but it will also affect the future reproduction plan. How about this: both of you pay me five taels of silver as compensation, and I will not pursue their responsibility. Otherwise, I will send them to the government for judgment."

When they heard they were going to be sent to the government, Li Shen and Li Dachun were terrified. Li Dachun even pulled Li Linshi beside him and cried, "Mother, please save me! I don't want to go to the government! I don't want to go to jail."

Li Fang slapped Li Shen in the face, as if she wanted to beat him to death, "Look at what you have done. Wasn't the previous thing enough for our family? You dare to cause trouble for us!" Li Baoer, who was standing next to her, saw her mother's angry look and did not dare to step forward. She just stood behind and watched from a distance.

To be honest, she hated Li Xiaoxiao, but she hated Li Shen even more. If he hadn't caused the family to pay a large sum of money, her life at home wouldn't be as miserable as it is now. Her once white and tender hands had become rough and tanned due to the endless work every day, and her face was also tanned. She wished Li Fangshi would beat Li Shen to death.

"Five taels of silver, why don't you just rob it? What are you planning, you prodigal girl? Aren't you going to kill our whole family?" Su, who came rushing over after hearing the news, wanted to go forward and attack Li Xiaoxiao, but was stopped by a villager nearby.

Seeing that Su was about to hit someone, Bai quickly protected Li Xiaoxiao behind her. "Mom, it was Li Shen and Li Dachun who were wrong first. How can you say the opposite about our Xiaoxiao?" Bai argued.

"Hmph, I think you just can't stand seeing us doing well, you spendthrift woman. Don't think I can't deal with you just because the family is divided. I'm still your mother-in-law!" Su turned her spearhead towards Bai again.

Seeing Su's unreasonable behavior, the village chief angrily scolded her, "Su, you are also an elder. This matter was originally the fault of Li Shen and Li Dachun. Not only do you not teach them well, but you are also making trouble here. What a disgrace!"

After being scolded by the village chief, Su Shi immediately lost her arrogance, but still said reluctantly: "Village chief, how can our family have so much money..."

The village chief thought for a moment and said, "How about this: Li Dachun and Li Shen will each pay two and a half taels of silver."

After hearing this, Li Xiaoxiao quickly said, "Thank you, Village Chief, for upholding justice for us."

Although Su Shi was dissatisfied, she did not dare to say anything. And just like that, the farce finally came to an end.

On that day, under the supervision of the village chief, Li Xiaoxiao received the compensation. As for how the two families got the money together, Li Xiaoxiao didn't want to care.

Because of this incident, Li Xiaoxiao and her family's plan to go to town today had to be postponed until tomorrow.

After Li Xiaoxiao and Bai returned home, they took tools such as hoes and sickles and went to the shrimp fields again, preparing to make the ridges of the shrimp fields more solid.

At this time, Aunt Chen and Uncle Li's family, who had heard about this, came over with hoes, saying that they would help them repair it. After all, Xia Tian was renovated by Uncle Li and his son, and Li Xiaoxiao was happy to let them help.

"These people in the Li family are really good-for-nothings. They are capable of all kinds of sneaky things. I'm afraid they will do more bad things in the future. You have to be careful and on guard." Aunt Chen said to Bai and Li Xiaoxiao while working.

"Don't worry, Auntie. We are not afraid of him. If something like this happens again next time, I will definitely not give them face and will hand them over directly to the government." Li Xiaoxiao said.

"That's how it should be. We can't let them do whatever they want!" Aunt Chen echoed.

Mrs. Bai, who was standing by, listened to the two people talking without saying a word. It was unknown what she was thinking.

Seeing her mother like this, Li Xiaoxiao comforted her, "Don't worry, Mom. They can't cause any trouble. Look at how many times they've gotten away with anything in front of me."

After hearing what Li Xiaoxiao said, Bai felt relieved. She stopped thinking about other things and focused on her work.

There is strength in numbers. By noon, the damaged shrimp farm was reinforced. Bai and Li Xiaoxiao invited Aunt Chen and her family to their home for lunch, and they happily agreed.
