Cui Yulu, known as the jinx of Cui Family Village, is about to get married. Under the guise of doing what's best for her, her aunt accepts eight taels of silver from the Han family in the neigh...
He was all alone and had no source of income, so he began to prey on the women in the village.
He was eventually driven out of the village by the villagers, but the neighboring village took him in in order to avoid taxes.
"Let bygones be bygones. I'm here now for the Han family's affairs. Let's leave the rest aside for now."
Han Xingen said this in a very polite manner.
His eyes, however, kept glancing at Tan Guihua.
They look like they're still up to no good.
"Since you've brought him here today, let's have a good talk about what we've done for your family over the years, and see if you owe me or I owe you."
Liu Xiuying didn't expect Cao Jinfang to still be so insistent on this matter. This time, she was determined not to follow that old man's rules again.
They've taken care of them their whole lives. There are so many men in their family, they don't need them to take care of them at all. Besides, they've done enough for them over the years.
"Perfect, since you put it that way, let's do the math. My old man lost a leg because of Han Laoda, which made life difficult for him afterwards. What's wrong with you taking care of us?"
"Does that one leg mean we have to take care of you for the rest of our lives? We've already done so much for you. Every winter, my Daping cuts firewood for you. We always give you the best food first. My Erzhu got tax exemption when he was in the army, and that was given to you. You haven't paid a single penny of tax all these years. Aren't you satisfied?"
"On the contrary, do you have even a shred of gratitude? You take all of this for granted. We only owe you a leg, not your life. Even if it were a life, we should have repaid that debt already."
The surrounding villagers nodded in agreement, criticizing Cao Jinfang for being ignorant. They said that Han Erzhu had served in the army for over ten years, and the tax money he saved over those years was what enabled his family to build a big house and allow Han An and Han Quan to go to school in the city.
"Cao Jinfang, stop being so ungrateful. Go back now and stop embarrassing yourself here."
"Yes, let's hurry up and leave. Take that beast with us too. Linshui Village doesn't welcome lecherous thieves like him."
