"Little girl up ahead, please make way!"
Seeing that Shen Qinglan not only didn’t step aside but was also approaching them step by step, the two coachmen frowned.
One of the coachmen spoke up again, "Miss, please move aside, we have business to attend to."
"Did Liang Kun send you here?"
"Yes." The coachman replied suddenly, "So, did he send you to guide us?"
Shen Qinglan didn’t speak but took out ten silver taels from her purse.
"He gave you each two taels, I will give you each five taels."
The two coachmen’s eyes lit up, "What do you want us to do, miss? Please speak!"
Shen Qinglan said calmly, "You don’t need to do anything, just turn around and leave."
The two coachmen looked at each other, somewhat incredulous.
Shen Qinglan distributed the silver taels to the two.
"Miss, do you really not need us to do anything?"
The two still felt somewhat unreal.
"No need." The source of thɪs content is novelꞁire.net
Seeing them turn the wagon around and leave, Shen Qinglan then strolled back to the Liang Family’s shed.
"I think I heard the sound of an ox cart approaching just now, why has it stopped?" Mrs. Niu frowned.
Liang Kun said nonchalantly, "It might be someone else’s ox cart."
"Father, Mother, you can wait slowly, my brother and I will leave first, and you can meet us halfway," Shen Qinglan said.
When Shen Qinglan returned to the shed, Liang Da and Liang Er had already packed up.
"Go ahead, be careful on the road!" Mrs. Niu advised.
As Shen Qinglan listened to the approaching footsteps, a slight smile tugged at her lips.
It should be Father and Uncle coming.
She leisurely walked to the door of the shed, watching the Liang family brothers emerging nonchalantly.
"You... why are you here?"
Perhaps due to a guilty conscience, Mrs. Niu’s voice was slightly sharp.
Seeing her hurriedly stuff the purse into her arms, Shen Qinglan sneered softly.
"Step aside, or don’t blame us for being rude!"
Liang Da widened his eyes, issuing a fierce warning.
"How rude do you want to be?"
Dong Zhong’s voice came over.
Seeing Dong Zhong, the two involuntarily stepped back.
Shen Qinglan glanced back, seeing that everyone was here, not only Dong Zhong but also the Shen Family.
Liang Kun laughed, "Cousin, cousin-in-law, how did you come?"
"Hmph~" Dong Zhong sneered, "If we don’t come, I’m afraid our share would be secretly pocketed by someone."
"Your share?" Liang Kun feigned ignorance, "We didn’t take your share."
"Is that so?" Dong Zhong stepped forward, "Then explain who the extra hundred bags of grain belong to, apart from your own?"
"Of course, it’s for the villagers who have left to escape the disaster elsewhere, isn’t it? We kindly collected on their behalf." Liang Kun said.
Dong Zhong’s voice lowered, "Does your Liang Family Village have anyone named Dong Zhong and Shen Shan?"
"How could that be?" Liang Kun still wore an innocent expression, "We didn’t take yours, don’t talk nonsense!"
Shen Qingzhu angrily said, "Your villagers have confessed that you instructed your two sons to report my uncle and my father’s names. What do you intend to deny?"
"Nonsense!" Liang Kun said, "We never reported!"
Dong Zhong sneered, "Reported or not, sending the two nephews to the registering official will reveal the truth."
Upon hearing this, Liang Da and Liang Er tried to escape but were caught by Shen Qinglan with each hand.
The two struggled desperately, but Shen Qinglan’s strength was so great that they couldn’t break free.
Shen Qingzhu, Shen Qingfeng, and the Dong Family brothers hurriedly stepped forward to hold them down.
