Yang Cui was also worried about how to deal with Yu Zhenqiang and the others. They couldn't be kept locked up forever, after all, they were officials appointed by the imperial court. She was worried that something might happen if they were kept there for too long.
Now you don't have to worry anymore.
With businesses scattered throughout the country, and the Su family being an established family, they must have their own information transmission channels. As soon as the incident occurred, Yang Cui instructed Manager Yu to quickly spread the news to the capital.
This news is really timely.
As soon as Manager Yu left, the An family members and children all surrounded him, asking him questions.
"Yes, Cen Xiao is not dead. This matter involves a lot of things, so I haven't told you yet."
The whole family was very happy to receive Yang Cui's affirmative answer.
"That's good. No one will bully you anymore." An Dafu was genuinely happy for Yang Cui. This incident had frightened him quite a bit. For a woman to be beautiful and rich is a sin. Since Cen Xiao didn't die, Yang Cui was safe.
"When will Godfather be back?" Yuan Qiu asked.
"Once the matter is resolved, he will be back; it should be soon."
The news that he is not dead no longer needs to be concealed, which means that things are coming to an end and we will definitely see it soon.
The news spread the next day that Cen Xiao was still alive.
Those who had paid their bills and left earlier regretted it and came to Yang Cui with gifts to beg for forgiveness. Yang Cui had them all turned away at the door.
Having no other option, the villagers went to An Dafu one by one, hoping he would plead for them. Some even said they would give him all their wages for the first three months if he would let them go back to work at the factory.
If so many people don't have to pay each person three months' wages, that adds up to a lot of money, and Wen was somewhat tempted.
“Xiao Cui said they won’t use it if they don’t want to, so you should stop thinking about it!” As soon as Wen Shi lifted her buttocks, An Dafu knew what she was thinking.
Wen said irritably, "So many people together cost dozens of taels of silver. Xiao Jiang was arrested because of her and suffered such a great shock, but I didn't see her show any reaction."
“Xi Hongmei is right. We enjoy wealth and luxury with her, but if we encounter trouble, our enemies will definitely target us first. Do you think we should sever ties? If we sever ties, you can forget about all this wealth and luxury.”
“When did I say I wanted to sever ties? She has money and doesn’t care about a few dozen taels of silver, but I do! Isn’t Xiao Jiang your son? He’s been so frightened, I’ll have to hire someone to call back his soul, and that won’t cost me anything.”
“Mom, please say less. My sister said I was frightened this time, so she bought me a small house in the county town to calm my nerves,” An Xiaojiang said.
"Are you serious?" An Dafu asked in surprise.
An Xiaojiang nodded: "It's near her house in the county town."
“Since it’s given to you, just accept it. Remember how good your sister is to you. Now you and Shuyun won’t need to buy a house when you get married,” An Dafu said.
"That's probably what my sister meant too. She even said the room is fully furnished." An Xiaojiang chuckled.
A house in the county town isn't expensive; it can be bought for a hundred or eighty taels of silver. This amount of money is nothing to Yang Cui, who doesn't have many relatives. Her cousins are all quite nice and are naturally willing to help her out.
An Xiaojiang then said to An Xiaohe, "That house is said to be a small house, but it's big enough for our whole family. We brothers can live together then."
Wen stopped talking, feeling rather unhappy. She had never wanted her sons to settle down in the county town, so she had never supported An Xiaojiang buying or building a house there. Now, it didn't matter whether she agreed or not, as Yang Cui had simply given him a house.
Isn't this the same as sending your son to the woman's family?
"You've all been bought off with just a house? I'm the only bad guy!" Wen stormed off.
An Xiaojiang and An Xiaohe were a bit confused. His sister had expressed displeasure, but she wasn't happy even when she didn't. It was really inexplicable.
