Both of them received one tael of silver plus half a tael of silver, with one hundred copper coins each.

One of them counted the copper coins while the other went to find a beam scale to weigh the change. After a while, they successfully counted the silver.

Wang Yan smiled and said to Lin Han: "Master, it's not missing at all, it's just right."

Lin Han nodded: "Okay, then the monthly salary for this month and last month will be settled.

It will remain the same from now on. I will give you a monthly stipend at the end of each month, one tael of silver per person per month. If you do well, I will give you another reward."

Wang Yan and Liu Gui looked at each other, and finally said to Lin Han solemnly: "Thank you, Master."

Lin Han: "No need to thank me, this is what you deserve. Do a good job."

Liu Gui and Wang Yan nodded at the same time, "Yes."

Lin Han: "Okay, you guys go make the pastries. I'm going to rest upstairs for a while. Call me when the meal is ready."

Wang Yan: "Okay, sir, you can go upstairs without any worries."

As mentioned before, although the villagers did not say anything about Yang Dazhuang in front of Yang Dasao, their home was very lively when he returned home.

Aunt Zhang returned home beaming with joy. Her daughter-in-law saw her and came up to her and asked, "Mother, what good thing happened to you today that makes you so happy?"

This daughter-in-law is the distant niece of Aunt Zhang, so the relationship between the two is quite friendly.

PS: I am not saying that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is bad if they do not have this kind of relationship. I just want to express that the relationship between them is very good.

Aunt Zhang couldn't bear it any longer after her daughter-in-law and niece asked her this. Of course, she hadn't intended to bear it in the first place.

Aunt Zhang was smiling happily, her face looked like a rotten persimmon, and the corners of her eyes were wrinkled.

Aunt Zhang said, "Qingqing, this is truly a joyous occasion. If you hadn't gone out today, you wouldn't have known that such a great event had taken place in our village."

Aunt Zhang only said that a great happy event had happened, but she didn't say what it was. She also said before that it was very gratifying, which successfully aroused Qingqing's interest.

Qingqing asked curiously, "That's a shame, but Mom knows what happened, so please don't keep me in suspense and tell me."

Aunt Zhang said excitedly: "That damned Yang Dazhuang from our village was struck to death by lightning. It's really retribution. God has eyes. Hahahaha, hahahaha~"

When Qingqing heard this, she was stunned at first and didn't react for a moment, then she was ecstatic.

She thought about it carefully and finally understood what Aunt Zhang said in that short sentence.

The village bully Yang Dazhuang died, struck by lightning.

Since Qingqing is Aunt Zhang's niece, she naturally knows a little about her cousin Lanxiang, but she is not familiar with the details.

All we know is that Yang Dazhuang did not succeed in the end, but that incident left a serious shadow on cousin Lanxiang.

As a girl, she knew how much of a blow this kind of thing could be to a girl. Even her gentle cousin Lanxiang almost committed suicide by jumping into the river.

So when Qingqing heard the news, she didn't feel the slightest bit of fear, but only endless joy and happiness.

Qingqing echoed Aunt Zhang: "Yes, as the old saying goes, God is watching what you do. It's not that there is no retribution, it's just that the time has not come yet.

Yang Dazhuang has done so many bad things, and now he is getting his comeuppance, he totally deserves it!"

This made Aunt Zhang feel happy. She praised him, "You're right. You haven't seen what he looks like, my God.

His entire body was charred black by lightning. If it weren't for the birthmark on his body, even his mother wouldn't have recognized him.

Her mother recognized him and lay on him crying loudly, which made her feel so happy.

He deserves it. It’s not unrelated to her that Yang Dazhuang has become what he is today. If she hadn’t taught him well, if she hadn’t indulged him, would Yang Dazhuang have grown up to be what he is today?

He is so big and strong, he can earn a lot even if he just carries things at the dock for a day.

He chose to be a bastard who bullied men and women, and now even God couldn't stand it and took his life."

Apart from her own marriage and every year when her cousin Lanxiang came back to her parents' home, it was the first time Qingqing saw Aunt Zhang so happy.

But for them, this incident is indeed something worth being happy about.

I'm afraid the only person in the world who is sad about this is Yang Dazhuang's mother.

Qingqing: "Who says it's not true? When cousin Lanxiang comes back, I'll tell her the news. Maybe it will make her laugh."

Aunt Zhang thought it made sense and praised Qingqing, saying, "This makes sense. Qingqing will definitely be happy when she knows this.

Next time she comes back, I'll tell her about it and let her have some fun too."

Aunt Liu also knew about this matter. She was even at the scene at that time. She couldn't show it outside, so as soon as she got home, she couldn't wait to share it with Liu Zhuzi.

Aunt Liu excitedly said to Liu Zhuzi, who had just returned from the fields, "Old man, I'm telling you, Yang Dazhuang was struck to death by lightning."

Liu Zhuzi was stunned when he heard such explosive news as soon as he came back.

In disbelief, he asked again: "Old woman, you are not kidding, is Yang Dazhuang really killed by lightning?"

Seeing that Liu Zhuzi didn't believe it, Aunt Liu immediately frowned and pouted.

Unhappily, he said, "Why, you don't believe me? Would I use this kind of thing to make fun of you?"

Oh, my wife is unhappy. Fortunately, after being married for so many years, Liu Zhuzi has his own way of coaxing his wife.

He quickly apologized with a smile, "No, no, I was just too shocked and thought I heard it wrong. It's not that I don't believe you. I believe everything you say."

He really knows how to talk. Aunt Liu wasn't really angry at first, but since Liu Zhuzi gave her a way out, she just went along with it.

The expression on Aunt Liu's face instantly changed to a smile, as if she couldn't do anything to you.

He continued, "Okay, listen carefully this time. Yang Dazhuang from our village was struck to death by lightning."

Aunt Liu said it so decisively that Liu Zhuzi had to believe it even if he didn't want to.

In fact, he did not disbelieve it at first, but this matter was too horrifying. Liu Zhuzi had lived for most of his life and had never seen anyone killed by lightning.

There was no sadness on his face, only curiosity. He put his arm around Aunt Liu's shoulders, walked to a stool, and pushed Aunt Liu down to sit.

He began to massage Aunt Liu's shoulders and asked curiously, "Wife, who told you this?"

Aunt Liu enjoyed Liu Zhuzi's shoulder massage in her heart, but pretended to be disgusted, "Oh, you just came back from the fields and you even soiled my clothes."

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhuzi cried out that he was wronged, but he also knew that Aunt Liu was the kind of person who said one thing but acted honestly.

"No way, I've washed my hands, they're clean. Are you comfortable? Is the pressure appropriate?"

Aunt Liu said proudly: "Huh~ That's about right, this strength will do."
