Reborn as a devoted sister-in-law, she leads the entire village to prosperity.
Chapter 100 The Problematic Inn
He laid down the bodies of Ma and his son and joined in the firefighting efforts.
The cries of the daughters could be heard from inside the house. The fire was too big, and no one dared to go in to rescue them. They could only wait for the fire to subside.
As dawn approached, the fire was finally extinguished. Fortunately, only Yang Lao Er's house was burned, and the neighbors were not affected.
Apart from the second and fourth children who escaped the fire, all the other children perished in the flames.
The second and fourth brothers also suffered burns to varying degrees. Even if they recovered, they would be crippled. Yang Lao Er was filled with grief.
He knelt on the ground, looked up at the sky, and tears streamed down his face.
Was he really wrong? Was he being punished by God? Should he have followed the Guo family to frame the Yu family?
Otherwise, why would a fire have occurred so soon after he returned home?
Yu Banxia is really strange.
"Why are you doing this to me? If I did something wrong, just punish me. Why are you doing this to me!"
"God, how cruel you are, how cruel you are!" Yang Lao Er cried out to the heavens.
The villagers, who had been busy putting out the fire all night, were also deeply moved when they saw this.
A perfectly good family, suddenly turned into this, is something no one can bear.
"Second brother, please accept my condolences. Old Yang has already carried the children's bodies out for you. There were six in total. It seems your eldest daughter isn't among them."
"That's good news. Did Daya go to her maternal grandparents' house?" The village chief walked over and asked Yang Lao Er.
Yang Lao Er was stunned. Ma Shi had also woken up and was holding her son, crying bitterly.
Upon hearing this, Ma suddenly realized something.
"It was her. I knew I wasn't mistaken last night. I heard some noise and woke up groggily last night."
"It was too dark, I couldn't see clearly and thought I had misheard. Yaozu was whining for food again, so I lay down to breastfeed him while I was still half asleep."
"I don't know what happened after that. I remember that when you woke me up, the blanket was covering Yaozu's head."
“I couldn’t be that confused, and the money and household registration documents are all gone.”
"Heavens above! How could this wretched girl be so cruel? Yaozu is her own brother! It's one thing for her to steal money and household registration, but how could she be so cruel as to kill her own sister and brother?"
"I gave birth to a terrible child..."
Mrs. Ma cried her heart out, while Old Yang clenched his fists.
Yes, she was acting strangely last night. He never imagined that this quiet eldest daughter could be such a ruthless person.
"Village chief, please help me report this to the authorities! I will make this wicked child pay for his blood debt!" Yang Lao Er roared.
The village chief and the others were shocked when they heard this. Could a thirteen-year-old girl really be so ruthless?
"Is there some misunderstanding?" the village chief asked hesitantly.
"There is no misunderstanding, it must have been that wretched girl's doing! Stealing from the family property, setting fire to the house, suffocating her own brother, how could I have given birth to such a wicked child?"
Yang Lao Er was so angry that he trembled all over. He never expected that his usually quiet and taciturn daughter could be so ruthless.
Seeing that the couple was so certain, the village chief had no choice but to believe them and sent someone to the town to see if they could find Yang Dani.
The villagers of Yangjia Village searched in town for a whole day, but no one had ever seen a girl like Yang Dani go to town.
The village chief helped Yang Lao Er's family complete the new household registration and transfer procedures. Fearing misunderstandings, he ultimately did not report the case to the authorities.
However, Yang Lao Er didn't think that way. He hated Yang Dani to the core. The day after he got the report, he went to town to file a complaint against his daughter.
Amidst the chaos and loss of their son and daughter at the Yang family home, Yu Banxia and her group headed towards Anping County.
We set off in the morning and settled in a small inn in the evening.
Yu Banxia arrived with Erniu and Gou Dan, along with their guard Chen Zhenshan. The Qian family also brought two guards, one named Qian Dalong and the other Li Chengxiang.
Zhang Wanqing also brought Yinzhi. Originally, Baoqin or Xunzhu were also going to come along, but Yu Banxia thought there were too many people.
That's why I didn't bring it.
"Oh, sir, our inn is small, and we only have two rooms left. What are we going to do?" The innkeeper was a thin old man. He looked at Yu Banxia and the others and said apologetically.
Yu Banxia looked around as if it were her first time going out.
Erniu thought for a moment and said, "How about this, Madam Qian and Miss Yu will share a room, and Miss Yinzhi will have to make do for one night."
"The other room is for Brother Chen and the other two. Dog Egg and I will sleep in the carriage tonight."
Zhang Wanqing asked, "Isn't there even a spare room? It's so hot, sleeping in a carriage is too much of a hardship!"
"I'm sorry, ma'am, we really don't have any more," the shopkeeper said apologetically.
Chen Zhenshan said, "The three of us are guards, so naturally we will sleep in the carriage to protect the mistress and the young lady."
"Erniu, you and Gou Dan will share a room with Brother Li. I'll stay outside the mistress's door for the night. Dalong can sleep in the carriage."
Seeing that there was really no other way, Zhang Wanqing could only agree.
"That's fine, thank you for your hard work."
Zhang Zhenshan and the others said with smiles, "You're too kind, Madam."
Something flashed in the shopkeeper's eyes, and then he arranged for a waiter to lead the way.
Yu Banxia pretended not to know anything and followed them upstairs. Fortunately, the room was quite large, and there was a small tatami mat in the outer room.
As soon as Yu Banxia entered the room, she smelled a strange fragrance.
After the waiter left, Yu Banxia took out a porcelain bottle from her bag: "Mother, Aunt Yinzhi, each of you have one."
"What's wrong?" Zhang Wanqing was a shrewd person and quickly understood what was going on.
Yu Banxia smiled and said, "It's alright. Perhaps we can give the county magistrate a big gift before we go to the county town."
"Is there something wrong with this inn?" Zhang Wanqing asked, looking at her.
Yu Banxia nodded: "Yes, but it's okay. After taking this antidote, you can eat and drink without worry."
Zhang Wanqing and the other person nodded, and just as they took the medicine, there was a knock on the door.
Yinzhi stepped forward and opened the door. Zhang Zhenshan bowed to Zhang Wanqing and said, "Mistress, there's something wrong with this inn."
"Xiaxia just told me that you should also be careful. Here's what we'll do: when they're not looking, have Li Chengxiang go to the county to find someone to help us."
Zhang Wanqing said to Zhang Zhenshan.
Zhang Zhenshan nodded and said, "That's what I think too."
Yu Banxia handed him the medicine bottle. Zhang Zhenshan nodded, took one pill himself, and then gave some to the others.
"Oh no! My jade pendant is gone! Uncle Zhang, quickly send someone to look for it!" Yu Banxia rushed downstairs in a panic, pouting unhappily at Zhang Zhenshan.
Zhang Zhenshan quickly stood up from his seat and hurriedly asked to comfort her, "Miss, what did you lose?"
"My pendant is lost, Uncle Zhang, please tell them to go and look for it for me!" Yu Banxia cried anxiously, her voice trembling with tears.
The shopkeeper heard it too, glanced at Yu Banxia for a while, and then lowered his head to calculate the accounts.
Zhang Zhenshan and the others searched everywhere in the inn.
"No, miss, can you think of where you saw that pendant before?" Zhang Zhenshan looked at Yu Banxia with a helpless expression.
Yu Banxia chuckled to herself, thinking to herself, "Uncle Zhang's acting is actually quite good."
