Mrs. Liu was so angry that she grabbed each child and walked out.
Unexpectedly, he was caught red-handed by the sharp-eyed Wang Guangping.
"Whose family is that over in the northwest corner? Where are you taking your child? Why are you leaving before you've finished talking? Come back here right now!"
Mu Zheng also said after hearing this: "Everyone, please be patient. There is only one last thing left. You can go back after I finish speaking."
Mrs. Liu had no choice but to pull the child back.
But this time she did not return to the Liu family, but chose to stand still near other villagers.
Liu glared at her, then turned her attention back to it.
Boss Ye and Old Fourth Ye were still standing side by side next to Mu Zheng. He didn't let the two brothers go down. Could it be that what happened next was related to them?
Mu Zheng said loudly, "In recognition of the contributions of Ye Qingchen and Ye Qingan in suppressing the bandits, the Emperor has ordered that they be rewarded with fifty taels of silver each."
As soon as these words were spoken, the threshing ground was in an uproar.
"How many?"
"Fifty taels of silver?"
"How much is fifty taels of silver?
"I've never seen so much silver in my life!"
"How could I have heard it wrong? Although fifty taels is indeed a lot for the two of us, it was a reward from the Emperor.
"All the money in the world belongs to the emperor. Giving him fifty or a hundred taels of silver is like playing a game."
As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately won the approval of most people.
That’s the emperor, how could he not be generous?
Ye Lao Da and Ye Lao Si were also shocked.
However, they were different from the villagers and were not surprised by the huge reward.
Especially Boss Ye. After all, his wife can earn fifty taels of silver by selling the recipe of a dish, and now she can earn twenty or thirty taels by preparing a banquet.
They just didn't expect Mu Zheng to say this in public.
Now everyone in the village knows that they each have fifty taels of silver, and they are afraid that they will have a difficult life in the future.
But despite their worries, the two of them soon became happy.
After all, this is the emperor's praise and reward, not everyone can get it.
Old Mrs. Ye, who was standing below, had already burst into tears after hearing this.
She first scolded her two sons for not telling him about such a big thing when they came back.
"These two rascals only know how to show off their strength. When they saw the bandits, they didn't run away, but instead went up to fight them head-on.
"Luckily there are government officials nearby, otherwise there's no way the two of them could defeat a dozen bandits!
"If anything happens, I'll be dead!"
Mrs. Ye hurriedly explained to them, "Mom, it wasn't that we didn't run, it was just too late.
"In fact, if I hadn't held Qingtian and leaned against the car window to get some fresh air, and Qingtian had seen someone in the woods, we would probably have been in great danger..."
When Mrs. Ye said this, she immediately choked up.
It was as if the terrifying feeling at that time suddenly came back to my mind.
Old Mrs. Ye was old and had experienced a lot, so she understood what was going on as soon as she heard it.
I guess the eldest and fourth brother were determined to die when they went up to fight the bandits!
Fortunately, Mu Zheng and his men were nearby at the time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
Old Madam Ye patted Sister Ye on the back to comfort her and changed the subject, "I really regret not bringing out your father's tablet so that he could see with his own eyes what his two sons have become.
"The Ye family is really blessed! Let's find someone to calculate an auspicious date, and then we'll go to the city together to burn some paper and incense for our ancestors and your father at the graves.
"Tell them the good news, and pray that our ancestors will continue to bless our family!
“No wonder the ancients believed that fallen leaves return to their roots; it really makes sense.
"It's different with the blessing of our ancestors!"
After Mu Zheng announced this matter in front, he no longer cared about what the people below were making noise about.
He waved his hand and someone brought up two trays.
The tray was covered with a red embroidered towel, on which were placed five ingots of snowflake silver.
The villagers below stretched their necks to look up. If the people Mu Zheng brought with him had not carried long swords on their waists, they would have rushed up and surrounded Ye Lao Da and Ye Lao Si.
Mu Zheng personally handed the two trays to Ye Lao Da and Ye Lao Si, and finally whispered to Ye Lao Da, "This embroidered scarf is also something from the palace. Since it was awarded by the emperor, it is naturally protected by dragon energy.
"Put this under your pillow when you get home. It will keep away all evil spirits and poisons."
When Boss Ye heard this, he was shocked. He looked up at Mu Zheng, and his eyes instantly turned red.
Ever since killing three bandits yesterday, Boss Ye has been telling himself that he was forced to do so to protect his family and his wife and daughter.
But it was murder after all. Three living people turned into corpses in an instant at his hands. He felt scared whenever he thought about it.
He didn't show it in front of his family, but in fact he hardly slept well last night.
So when he heard Mu Zheng say this, Boss Ye knew that he must have seen through his persistence and understood his feelings. He was overwhelmed with emotions in an instant.
Wang Guangping, who was standing by, didn't hear what Mu Zheng said to Boss Ye, but when he saw Boss Ye's eyes turn red, he felt that he could understand it very well.
Instead, he felt that Ye Laosi, who only knew how to laugh foolishly, was a little silly.
Imagine if such a good thing happened to him, not only would his eyes turn red, he might even be so excited that he would cry in public.
After giving the money, Mu Zheng said everyone could go.
