Farming with kids: My deceased husband returns and I spoil him rotten.

She received only echoes in response, and Shang Qing sighed helplessly.

If she had known that her master was so easily angered, she wouldn't have spoken so rashly.

Fortunately, this is a big deal; we should be able to find out by simply asking anyone in the village.

Hoping for a lucky break, Shang Qing moved to the first house.

Before even entering the house, I saw patches of clothing all over the yard.

It seems this family's financial situation is even worse than hers was back then.

Thinking of the difficult days he had endured, Shang Qing couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy for this family, and even knocked on the door much more gently.

"Excuse me, is there anyone?"

The person who opened the door was a woman wearing patched clothes.

Her face was pale, her cheeks were slightly sunken, and her eyes were surrounded by dark circles.

She stood in front of the door, her face full of confusion. "Who are you?"

"Excuse me, I'm someone the county magistrate just transferred here to investigate the Luo family's massacre. Could you please cooperate with me?"

Upon hearing the name "Luo family," a glint clearly flashed in the woman's eyes.

Completely ignoring what Shang Qing said next, she excitedly grabbed Shang Qing's shoulders.

"Has the culprit been caught? Has justice been served for the Luo family?"

The woman shook her violently, making Shang Qing feel dizzy and lightheaded.

Seeing that Shang Qing could barely stand, the woman finally let go of his hand and, slightly embarrassed, tidied the hair behind her ear.

"sorry!"

I feel dizzy and see stars.

Shang Qing slowly backed away until she had her back against the wall and had something to lean on, then said, "It's okay."

She gently pressed her fingertips against her temples, her eyes slightly open.

"However, you seem to take the Luo family's affairs very seriously."

"It's not just me who values ​​it; everyone in our village values ​​it!"

This statement piqued Shang Qing's interest.

"Why?"

"Young lady, you don't know this, but the Luo family is the richest family in our village, but they are also the best people in our village."

"Since the Luo family became wealthy, they have not only built roads in the village, but also led the villagers to learn and plant together."

“Look at this field outside, that’s the one he taught us to plant.”

Looking in the direction the woman pointed, there was a cotton field ahead.

"This is the cotton that the Luo family taught us to grow. Every year, we give our cotton harvest to the Luo family."

Then he would process them into finished products and sell them all over the country, and we would earn a share of the profits from them.

"For us, the Luo family is not just one household in this village, but the direction we are heading."

"But who knows which heartless bastard was so blind as to steal the Luo family's money and then try to wipe them out? This is utterly depraved..."

As the woman spoke, her eyes reddened.

"I really hate that bastard so much! If it weren't for him, I wouldn't be in this state now!"

Women can be said to be the main force of cotton producers, and they wholeheartedly followed the Luo family to work.

However, it all ended before it even began.

Her dream of making money ultimately remained just a mirage.

The sound of sobbing caught Shang Qing off guard.

"Don't cry, don't cry..."

Her shoulder was gripped again. Shang Qing looked up and met the woman's indignant eyes.

“Young lady, since you are someone sent down from the county, I beg you, you must investigate this matter thoroughly.”

"Catch that damned bastard and get justice for the Luo family!"

The woman's voice carried an undeniable air of authority, leaving Shang Qing with no choice but to comply.

After nodding repeatedly and saying a few perfunctory words, she hurriedly went to the second house.

He was kicked out as soon as he finished introducing himself.

"Hey, hey, hey, how can you use brooms to chase people away? I'm someone sent down by the county magistrate, can't you show some respect?"

He covered his butt and ran as fast as he could.

Unfortunately, Shang Qing couldn't outrun the other person's broom and got slapped on the butt several times.

Enraged, she yelled so loudly that her voice became shrill, but the voice on the other end was even louder than hers.

"I'm only beating you up here because you're one of the higher-ups."

"What exactly are you doing? Why are you only starting to investigate this now? How long are you going to let the Luo family suffer this injustice?"

The person holding the broom was a middle-aged man.

Although he didn't shed tears when talking about the Luo family, Shang Qing could still see regret in his eyes.

"The Luo family are such good people!"

"The family is harmonious and friendly. They always help others again and again."

"But how could you let him get stabbed by that heartless bastard?"

"To shut them up with a single cut? That person was so cruel, why haven't you found them yet!"

As the man spoke, his anger surged.

He slammed the broom in his hand against the ground again and again in his anger, and the next second, he smashed it directly at Shang Qing.

If we don't run now, we might lose our lives.

Without daring to talk any longer, Shang Qing disappeared in a flash.

Without stopping, we finally arrived at the third place.

The third family was led by a young man who was aloof and indifferent, and was gathering firewood on the side.

But when the topic turned to the Luo family, a strange light flashed in his eyes, and he stopped what he was doing.

"Has the investigation yielded any results?"

"Not yet, I just wanted to ask about the basic situation."

"What happened to the Luo family? Was the murderer robbing the rich to help the poor, or was he indiscriminately killing innocent people?"

The man paused for a moment, then turned around, picked up the axe, and walked step by step toward Shang Qingxi.

"what are you doing?"

Shang Qing was so frightened that she leaned against the wall, her legs almost unsteady.

She only said one wrong sentence, was this person going to kill her?

"Since you smart people can't investigate, then I'll go find the murderer myself and die with him!"

The man was menacing, with an air of wanting to chop down anyone he could.

It turns out he didn't cut himself.

Shang Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

Fearing he might hurt someone, she quickly ran forward to shield him.

"Calm down, don't do anything foolish! I understand, I understand everything. Go back, I will give you and the Luo family a satisfactory answer!"

After a great deal of effort, Shang Qing finally managed to appease the person.

At that moment, she felt as if her silver tongue was about to explode.

After leaving the man's house and asking around at a few more places, Shang Qing had a full grasp of the situation.

The Luo family are indeed good people beyond measure.

With their help, many people in the village got back on track, so the villagers loved and respected them very much.

Unfortunately, since they left, the villagers have been like a group of dragons without a leader. Even though they had previously escaped poverty, they have slowly declined.

Therefore, nowadays, whenever the villagers hear any information about the murderer, they all look like they want to kill him.

The way he gritted his teeth suggested he wanted nothing more than to tear the murderer to pieces.

"Heaven is truly blind! Such a good person, and he's gone just like that!"

Perhaps influenced by the villagers' emotions, Shang Qing couldn't help but sigh as he walked along the path by the field that good people don't live long.

However, after walking only a few steps, she stopped again, the setting sun casting a long shadow over her.

No, if the Luo family were really as the villagers say, why would the storyteller slander them like that?

Could it be that the storyteller is in cahoots with the murderer?
