“Although the mountain bandits intend to restore order to Mountain Spring Town, how can these people follow the rules like the people from the Imperial Court?”
“I prefer to talk about the bean sprouts business at a later stage,” Qin Xiaoyao said.
When she saw the disappointment on everyone’s faces, Qin Xiaoyao continued, “But if you really can’t stay idle, then why not go out of town and continue with the gathering of firewood to sell?
“The town gates are open now, and there are many people who are short of firewood. With so many of you working together, it will be safer.”
The few of them exchanged glances with each other, and they felt that Qin Xiaoyao had a point.
Thereafter, Wang Dashan consented to this proposal.
“It’s just in time. I still owe Mrs. Song 8 loads of firewood. This time, I’ll make up for the firewood I still owe Mrs. Song first,” Wang Dashan said.
However, Qin Xiaoyao simply laughed.
“There’s no hurry. I still have enough firewood at home. Just arrange for the firewood to be delivered as you did before,” she responded.
“Mm-hmm.” Wang Dashan had a rough idea of the Song family’s situation, so he didn’t insist.
Qin Xiaoyao only left after exchanging some more information with the visitors about the situation outside.
After Qin Xiaoyao left, the crowd dispersed as well.
Wang Dashan was the only one who stayed behind to talk to Wang Xiaomei.
At the same time, he also took some food back from Wang Xiaomei.
At noon, the weather changed abruptly.
A violent wind suddenly rose, followed by the appearance of massive, overwhelming dark clouds.
After such a long drought in Mountain Spring Town, it finally started to rain heavily.
And once this storm started, it lasted for three consecutive days.
When the storm stopped, notices from the mountain bandits appeared on the streets.
They proclaimed that their general was the one chosen by heaven. He had just settled in Mountain Spring Town when heavy rain fell from the sky and solved the drought in Mountain Spring Town.
The commoners naturally did not believe this.
How could a person chosen by heaven be so brutal and kill people without blinking?
In addition, the storm did more than just solve the drought problem in Mountain Spring Town. It also destroyed many houses and caused great damage, bringing tremendous hardships to people’s lives.
Many homeless refugees also died in the storm.
After the storm, peace did not descend on Mountain Spring Town.
Barely five days later, after the temperature dropped, snowflakes began to fall from the sky.
The residents of Mountain Spring Town finally welcomed the winter season for this year.
On this day, good news finally came from the Liu family.
The Qin family’s second daughter-in-law gave birth before Big Girl Li. Another chubby little boy was added to the Qin family.
The Qin family was extremely overjoyed.
Soon, the Qin family brought Second Sister-in-law back home.
After making sure that Second Sister-in-law had enough milk, Eldest Sister-in-law also brought Xiaohu back to the Qin family.
She handed Xiaohu over to Second Sister-in-law for milk-feeding.
At the same time, Eldest Sister-in-law took care of Second Sister-in-law’s daily needs.
Qin Xiaoyao went back to visit her little nephew and even sent some cured meat and dried food for her second sister-in-law’s post-natal nourishment.
The members of the Qin family were extremely grateful.
In the Qin family’s hall, the Qin family’s father and sons were discussing some serious matters with Qin Xiaoyao.
“Yesterday, I saw Zhang Ershui at the entrance of the gambling house,” Qin Dahu suddenly said.
His words made everyone look at him.
He was frowning and looked very worried.
“That rascal seems to have some connections with the mountain bandits,” Qin Dahu continued.
Everyone was shocked by his words.
Qin Xiaoyao furrowed her brows at once.
It was not good news that Zhang Ershui was in cahoots with the mountain bandits. What if…
“How did he get acquainted with the mountain bandits? Are you sure you’re not mistaken?” Qin Dazhuang immediately asked his eldest son. He also looked nervous.
“No doubt about it. It’s definitely him,” Qin Dahu reaffirmed.
“With him were a few mountain bandits. You’ve also met two of them before.”
“They are two of the people who came to our Xiang Yang Lane to collect grain not long ago.”
As soon as he said that, the Qin family’s members all became very glum.
If Zhang Ershui really had connections with the mountain bandits, then the Qin family would definitely be in for a rough time.
Qin Xiaoyao’s gaze swept across her father and two brothers, and she quickly came up with an idea in her mind.
She had long planned to get rid of the Zhang family, but she had never gotten around to doing it.
Now, it seemed like she had no choice but to take action.
In her heart, she was calculating if she should set off tomorrow.
Suddenly, there was the sound of banging on the door.
That was right. It was the sound of banging, not the sound of knocking.
There must be a lot of people out there, and they were malting quite a ruckus. Their voices were particularly loud.
The Qin family’s faces all changed.
Qin Dazhuang quickly told his eldest daughter-in-law to go in and take care of his second daughter-in-law. Then he brought his two sons to open the door.
Qin Xiaoyao was told to stay in the hall by Qin Dazhuang. Although she did not go out, she went to the door to see what was going to happen.
Soon, she saw Zhang Ershui barging into the Qin family’s courtyard with a few people.
Thereafter, he yelled at her father.
“Brother-in-law… Oh, no, you’re not my brother-in-law anymore,” Zhang Ershui said dramatically to Qin Dazhuang.
“You divorced my sister. You even snatched away my sister’s baby.”
“I didn’t have any other intentions when I invited Brother Qiang and the rest over.”
“If you hand over my nephew, I won’t make things difficult for you.”
“Otherwise…” At this point, a trace of ruthlessness emerged in Zhang Ershui’s eyes.
He had lost a hand, his sister had been sold, and the Zhang family had fallen into such a state all because of Qin Dazhuang.
In the past, he was not capable and could not do anything to the Qin family.
However, now, he would not let the Qin family have an easy time.
Oh right. There was also that bitch Qin Sanya.
After he was done with the Qin family, he would go and look for her.
When he thought of that woman’s face and the figure she had now, Zhang Ershui’s face turned lecherous.
When he pinned that woman under him, he would see if she still dared to argue with him.
Qin Dazhuang frowned deeply.
“We don’t have your nephew here. Our family doesn’t have the person you’re looking for. Hurry up and leave,” he said.
“Your oldest son’s brat with the name Xiaohu or something. Isn’t he my sister’s child?”
“Do you think I don’t know just because you put him under your eldest son’s household?” Zhang Ershui said immediately.
“If you know what’s good for you, then quickly bring that brat out for me.
Otherwise…” Zhang Ershui looked at the three mountain bandits he had brought with him.
The one called “Brother Qiang” immediately picked up the long saber that he carried with him.
The threatening look was self-evident.
Zhang Ershui was a gambler Brother Qiang had met in a gambling house before he joined the mountain bandits.
As they both shared the same vile habits, they often gathered together to gamble in the past.
However, his status had changed now, and Zhang Ershui was trying to curry favor with him.
He naturally had to extend him some courtesy on account of their friendship and lend him some support.
Of course, it was also because Zhang Ershui had promised to give him five taels of silver, so he was also tempted.
The faces of the Qin family’s father and sons changed.
Qin Dahu was the most infuriated. He wanted to rush forward but was stopped by his father.
“Xiaohu is my oldest son’s child. He has nothing to do with the Zhang family,” Qin Dazhuang said.
Qin Dazhuang sighed again when he saw the murderous look in Zhang Ershui’s eyes.
“I can’t give you the child. Tell me, how much do you want?” he said.
Zhang Ershui’s expression at once.
Only then did a smirk appear on his face.
“Hehe! Brother-in-law, that’s the way!”
“You took the child away from our family. How can you not give us some compensation?”
“How about this? This time you give us twenty taels of silver. I won’t insist on seeing my nephew.”
As for the future, he would definitely have to visit again since he was the uncle.
The faces of the Qin family’s members changed instantly..
