Heard? Who told him that?
Yuan Shanchuan couldn’t help but look at Shu Yu. The latter put a piece of candy into his mouth and then stood up to send Hu Li and the other out.
Village Chief Chen and Fan Zhong both drank some wine and left together. Soon, only his family was left in the central room. Yuan Shanchuan opened the pouch hesitantly. There were a few pieces of silver inside. Roughly calculating, it was about seven or eight taels.
Yuan Shanchuan’s eyes widened. This was too much.
When he was hiding with that painting, he had indeed used up all the money on him, but he only had a few hundred men in total at that time.
Lord Xiang had compensated him so much.
Shu Yu said, “Our Excellency saw that you were injured, so he should compensate you. You almost lost your life. He couldn’t possibly suffer so much for nothing, right?”
Lu Dasong, who was at the side, nodded repeatedly. “Yes, yes, yes. If I give it to you, you should take it. In the future, if you work hard and do your job well, you will be able to repay the Lord.”
Yuan Shanchuan smiled and didn’t refuse.
However, he quickly looked at Lu Sixing, and the latter smiled slightly.
Yuan Shanchuan handed the pouch to Shu Yu. “Yu, I borrowed ten taels of silver from you yesterday. Although I don’t have ten taels here, since I have it, I’ll return it to you first. I’ll give you the rest when I get paid.”
Shu Yu did not decline and took the purse. “Alright, then I’m looking forward to Fourth Uncle’s meteoric rise.’
Madam Li and Madam Liang sat at the side, their eyes burning.
However, in the end, Shu Yu still took out a tael of silver and gave it to Lu Sixing. Their family of four still had to live, especially when they were going to rent a house in the county town in a few days. This money was not enough.
The rain had stopped, and the matter with Yuan Shanchuan had concluded. Shu Yu planned to return to the county town.
“I didn’t go back yesterday, so they don’t know the situation. I’ll leave now so that I can explain the situation to them so that they won’t be anxious.”
The Madam Liang also wanted to go back. She wasn’t thinking about Lu Sanzhu and the two children. The main thing was that if she didn’t go back, she wouldn’t be able to make doll covers and earn money.
The two of them packed up and prepared to set off.
Seeing Shu Yu pull the mule carriage out, Daniu quickly went over and asked, “Then Boss Yuan…
“I’ll keep an eye out. Don’t worry. After such an incident today, it’s already the middle of the afternoon. I think they don’t have the mood to go to the county anymore.”
Daniu nodded and did not say anything else,
Shu Yu sat on the mule carriage, said goodbye to the few people, and then brought Madam Liang straight to the county town.
As a result, it started to rain again when the mule carriage was halfway there.
Shu Yu drove the carriage. Even though she was wearing a straw raincoat, when the rain poured down, she was still wet by the time she reached the county town.
As soon as she entered the house, she quickly took a shower and changed into dry clothes.
After she was done packing and left the room, Madam Liang was already sitting in the central room and telling Old Madam about what had happened in the past two days.
She was sitting in the mule carriage previously and was not drenched at all. Now, she was talking until her mouth was dry.
The old lady sat there and scolded the Milan family. After that. She began to
gloat and said that they deserved it. They chased their most promising son out of the house. They were indeed old and muddle-headed.
Madam Liang nodded her head repeatedly at the side. She drank her tea and scolded him. She had no intention of getting up and going home at all.
Anyway, at this time, she was prepared to stay and freeload..
