In Zhou'an Village, Zhou Daqing was stunned for a long time after hearing the news.
He then burst into laughter. Now he finally understood why Yang Cui dared to arrest an official of the imperial court. This was her source of confidence!
He was once again relieved that he had made the right bet!
That old codger An Village Chief still wants to compete with me? He has neither vision nor courage, he doesn't deserve it!
Zhou Daqing became smug. The Zhou clan members were as proud as they had been through. They couldn't stop smiling and praised the village chief for his vision and courage. They believed that listening to the village chief was always the right thing to do.
Chief Yan finally felt relieved. He was quite old; heaven knows how much pressure he must have felt leading so many people to help. Thank goodness…
Although they didn't help in any way, Lord De'an will not treat them badly for their actions. As long as Pigeon Village and the Yan clan don't do anything reckless, at least the next three generations will have a good life.
With the crisis resolved, Village Chief An breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time felt regret. Why had he been so cowardly?
Yang Cui lives in Anjia Village. Logically speaking, she should be the one who benefits the most and is the most trusted. But now, she will never catch up with Zhou Daqing. Not only will she not catch up with Zhou Daqing, but she will not even be able to compare with that old guy Yan Youfu.
I regret it so much!!!
The Lin family, who were gloating before, are now completely unable to laugh. They are hiding at home, silent and invisible.
Did you think hiding would solve everything?
Zhou Daqing is a very vengeful person; he loves to finish off his enemies.
He was holding a newly bought purple clay teapot in his hand. He took a step, took a sip of tea, and leisurely strolled over to Lin'an Village. He showed off to everyone he met that Yang Cui had given ten sheep to each of Pigeon Village and Zhou'an Village, and invited the people of those two villages to have a feast.
The people of Lin'an Village swallowed hard upon hearing this. Ten sheep! That's over a thousand catties in total. Even though it's shared by the whole village, it's still a lot. They can have a delicious meal!
envious!
Immediately afterwards, Zhou Daqing said that Yang Cuihua would spend a lot of money to set up a health station at the entrance of Zhou'an Village, and that people from Zhou'an Village and Pigeon Village, as well as her employees, would receive half-price medical treatment!
Everyone gets sick. In this era, not only is medical care expensive, but there is also a shortage of doctors. Once Yang Cui establishes a health station, they will not only have easier access to medical care, but also incur lower costs.
These are all real benefits!
Ten sheep are nothing compared to this.
Envy, jealousy, and hatred!
The people of Lin'an Village cursed Lin Shikang and his mother and the former clan chief countless times in their hearts. Some of them were enjoying a good life outside, while others died and ended it all, leaving them here to suffer and endure torment.
In the past, they thought it was very prestigious for the clan to produce a scholar who had achieved the third rank in the imperial examinations or an official position. They only felt aggrieved and ashamed!
The Lin clan members thought that Lin Shikang and Fan were enjoying a life of luxury, but little did they know that Lin Shikang was not having an easy time.
King Qingyang was defeated, and all his followers were either arrested or killed.
Yuan Weimin's backer is also the Prince of Qingyang. Over the years, he has been accumulating wealth, and most of that money has actually been given to the Prince of Qingyang.
Yuan Weimin has now been completely eradicated. The crimes he committed are simply too numerous to recount.
After Yuan Weimin was arrested, countless people gathered at the yamen, begging Cen Xiao to kill him immediately to vent their anger.
Lin Shikang, as Yuan Weimin's son-in-law, is now also under control.
Fan cried her heart out. Only now did she realize that being an official wasn't all that great, and that it was better to be a peaceful commoner.
"It's all because of this jinx! Our Lin family is so unlucky to have married such a scumbag! Not only is she second-hand, but she's also a jinx!" Madam Fan cried and sobbed, not uttering a single kind word. "Son, if you divorce this jinx, we can sever all ties with her and everything will be fine."
Yuan Yajing's face turned pale instantly, her eyes filled with tears, and she looked at Lin Shikang with an innocent expression.
Lin Shikang remained silent, his eyes revealing a hint of coldness and indifference. He said, "Divorcing her won't help. The leader is Yang Cui's man. If he wants us dead, we'll be beheaded at best, and our entire family will be executed at worst!"
