Chapter 407 Compensation for Yuan Shanchuan
Village Chief Chen was furious. He strode over and started cursing at the Yuan family.
"Get out of here right now, and stop embarrassing yourself. If you keep using these underhanded tactics, I'll kick you out of the village, believe me? You're really shameless. Yesterday, I tried to persuade you to think it over, but you were the ones who were afraid of the mountains and rivers bringing trouble to you, and you all kicked people out of their homes like you were dealing with a plague."
"Don't forget, you yourselves said that from now on, whether you're rich or poor, you'd never see each other again, and it would be none of your business. So if you're thinking of taking advantage of the Shanchuan family, I'll be the first to object. Get out!!"
Village Chief Chen is quite terrifying when he gets angry, especially with the two constables, Hu Li and Hu Li, standing behind him with a half-smile on their faces.
The Yuan family was so frightened they wet themselves and dared not have another thought. They quickly helped Old Man Yuan up and ran away in a hurry.
Village Chief Chen was furious, but Fan Zhong stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, comforting him, "Brother, don't get too worked up. Some people are just shameless. Today is a joyous occasion, don't let people like this ruin your mood."
Village Chief Chen let out a long breath, smiled at Fan Zhong, then turned around and went back into the main room, saying to Yuan Shanchuan, "Severing ties is severing ties, it's not a joke, don't pay them any mind."
Yuan Shanchuan nodded, "I know, their current behavior only makes me feel more disheartened."
Upon hearing this, Village Chief Chen sighed and said, "From now on, your family should live well, and things will get better and better."
The group stopped talking about the Yuan family to avoid affecting their mood.
The villagers who had been watching in the courtyard all left. It was estimated that soon, news of Yuan Shanchuan being valued by Lord Xiang and doing something extraordinary would spread throughout several villages.
Only then could everyone sit down and have a proper chat, and Yuan Shanchuan also invited the two village chiefs to stay for dinner at his home.
Hu Li asked about Yuan Shanchuan's health. "There's no rush to go back to work. We adults know about your injury. He instructed that you should go to the clinic for a follow-up check-up after you've fully recovered, and only go to the county government office after confirming that there are no problems."
Yuan Shanchuan was very grateful. "Thank you for your understanding, sir."
"Also, after you start working, you'll probably need to settle down in the county town, so you need to think about your accommodation in advance."
Yuan Shanchuan nodded. "I understand."
Hearing this, Lu Dasong, who was standing nearby, suddenly felt a little lonely.
There were four siblings in the family: two younger brothers and a younger sister. Now they had all gone to the county town.
He was the only one left at home. His younger siblings were all successful and rising to higher positions, which made him, the eldest brother, seem incompetent.
Lu Dasong wasn't envious, but his greatest skill was farming, and even if he went to the county town, he wouldn't know what to do.
However, he quickly shook off these thoughts. He was doing well enough with his family, so there was no need to think about such trivial matters.
While they were talking, the food in the kitchen was ready.
The table is placed in the main room, which is spacious and comfortable.
Hu Li and his men didn't linger there for too long. It was afternoon, and the rain had stopped. After eating and resting for a while, they prepared to go back and report.
Before leaving, Hu Li gave Yuan Shanchuan a purse and said, "When you were tracking the murderer, you were injured and had to see a doctor. You need money to buy medicine. The magistrate heard that you had spent all the wages you had on you, so this is compensation for you."
