After carrying the package home, Han Qiulin took some scissors and opened it.
"Holy crap, there's so much stuff."
"There's a whole bag of dried goods. These dried goods are great for making soup or stir-frying."
"Oh my, it's true, this child also took the heads of wild rabbits and pheasants."
"This... I'm not seeing things, am I?" Han Qiulin said, holding a small portion of the venison.
"This is venison!"
"This future sister-in-law is really generous! There's so much cotton and nuts too..."
The whole family was stunned when they saw so many things.
Forget everything else, venison is a rare commodity, something you can hardly find on the market, and even if it's available, it's extremely expensive. Instead of exchanging it for money, this kid sent it to them.
"There's a letter in here." Han Qiulin rummaged through the mail and pulled out a letter.
The group put down their things and looked at the letter together.
The letter was written by Han Qiushi; only at the very beginning was Lin Xiaoxiao's greeting to them.
After reading the whole thing, Bai Hehua was displeased: "What is this? Couldn't this child have let Xiaoxiao write a few more lines? It's just a greeting and that's it?"
"You're wasting my time reading the letter."
Han's father and Han Qiulin: "..." Aren't you afraid your eldest son will be heartbroken if he hears this?
Bai Hehua said it without hesitation, and immediately took out the cured meat happily, put away the rest of the things, and kept muttering, "Xiaoxiao sent so many things this time, I can't be stingy."
"Qiulin, hurry up and find those seafood products that your uncle sent last time. They have plenty of mountain produce to eat over there, so seafood must be hard for them to get. This time, I'll send some to Xiaoxiao to try."
"Okay." Han Qiulin.
........
Lin Xiaoxiao's side.
She had just finished delivering pig feed with the children and was heading home.
Then I saw a lot of people on the road, all walking in one direction, walking very fast and hurriedly.
Lin Xiaoxiao told the children to go back, then quickly stepped forward and called out to an aunt from the same village.
Only after asking did I learn that something had happened to Wang Juan's family again.
Last time, Wang Juan's parents wanted to go to Hu San's house to settle accounts, but who knew that those people who went there didn't even get into the village and all came back in a sorry state.
Who would have thought that Hu San and the people from his village would have the audacity to come looking for Wang Juan?
These people are at Wang Juan's house.
"Lin Zhiqing, let's go see what's going on."
"Those people from the neighboring village are too arrogant! They actually bullied the people from our Wangjia Village like this, even making their child jump into the river. This...this is inhumane!" The aunt next to her excitedly pulled Lin Xiaoxiao along.
"I...I think I'd better not go." Even if she doesn't go, someone else will pass on the gossip to her.
“Lin Zhiqing, how can you not go? You're so quick-witted, you could do the work of several of us. And with your skills, you could do the work just by standing there…”
Lin Xiaoxiao: "......" It's fine to support others, but what's the point of supporting Wang Juan?
They had a fight.
However, seeing her aunt's expectant expression and tempted by the gossip, Lin Xiaoxiao finally agreed.
She really didn't want to kick someone when they're down, but she couldn't undermine the unity of everyone working together against a common enemy.
At this critical moment, Hu San arrived with his men.
Wang Xue and Li Mei had just heard about this at the educated youth settlement and rushed over to hear the gossip.
The group of people all gathered together and went over.
When they arrived at Wang Juan's house, they saw that the yard was already crowded with people. Wang Xue didn't know where she got the strength, but she pulled the two people behind her and darted around, and she actually found a great viewpoint.
Lin Xiaoxiao looked at her hand, which had turned white from being pulled by Wang Xue, and couldn't help but twitch her lips.
Wang Xue's enthusiasm for gossiping is something she can't even match.
Lin Xiaoxiao stopped and looked around, finding that Wang Xue's behavior was quite refined.
Good heavens, the entire wall around Wang Juan's house was packed with people. The house must have been very sturdy to have stood there, and the wall hadn't collapsed despite all that.
After looking around, Lin Xiaoxiao turned her gaze to the center of the courtyard.
Standing in the middle were all people I didn't recognize, men and women; they must be from the next village.
She overheard her aunts talking behind her, saying that the one at the front was the scoundrel and heartless man from the next village, also known as Hu San.
Standing in front of the group of people was an angry aunt, and squatting next to her was Wang Juan's father.
Wang Juan fell ill after jumping into the river and stayed in her room to recover. She didn't come out, but you could faintly hear crying coming from inside.
When the group saw that the people from Wangjia Village had all come to watch the excitement, the onlookers pointed and whispered about them.
Lin Xiaoxiao was about to ask the old lady next to her what was going on.
Then Wang Dazhuang stepped forward and asked, "What do you mean by this from Xishui Village?"
"Did you bring this whole bunch here to cause trouble?"
The people from the neighboring village waved their hands to indicate that they were not there to cause trouble and that there was no need to misunderstand.
Not long after, Hu San stepped forward.
"Hello uncles and aunties, the people from our village are not here to cause trouble today. We've come to collect something. It was already agreed that the two families would break off the engagement, but I've been waiting at home for two days and haven't received the betrothal gifts I originally gave them."
"The engagement has been called off, so there's no reason for you to still be taking what belongs to someone else, is there?"
The man initially spoke quite politely, but Lin Xiaoxiao could tell from his tone...
Hu San still spoke in a seemingly conciliatory manner, but anyone could tell that his tone was disdainful.
Lin Xiaoxiao could sense it, and so could the elderly men and women behind her.
"Everyone, come and judge this! This guy is acting like a scoundrel, and he even has the nerve to come to our house and ask for things! My child didn't do anything, and he's being bullied like this!"
"It's clearly those people from their village who are acting like thugs, ruining my child's reputation. My daughter is already like this, and they still dare to bring people here. This is pure bullying, there's no justice in this world..."
"If it were my child who made a mistake, I could let it go, but since you made a mistake, don't even think about taking anything from my house!!"
"Oh dear, my Juan'er is so unlucky to have been stuck with such a scoundrel. My child is good in every way, but I never thought that her reputation would be ruined like this. I really don't want to live anymore. Everyone, you all come and judge for yourselves."
Hu San didn't want to be pointed at and gossiped about, so he immediately discussed with Wang Juanniang, "Auntie, let's go inside and talk..."
