, all the families who had ordered tofu sent people to collect their orders as scheduled.Finally relieved, the women could finally breathe a sigh of relief after accomplishing everything successfully....What would Liu Qiaoyun be looking for
Thoughts surged within him as he reminisced about the past. Yang Lin stepped into the house.
Inside, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl in a green robe stood up nervously, her eyes full of anticipation as she looked at Yang Lin.
"Qiao Yun, is there something you need"
Nowadays, Yang Lin is no longer the bookish scholar he once was, someone who blushed halfway through his face when uttering a single word. He naturally feels no pressure facing Liu Qiaoyun.
The girl hurriedly nodded obediently, lowering her head and daring not to meet Yang Lin's gaze. She stammered, "Sorry... I didn't know my father wanted to harm you..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Liu Qiao Yun's head had already bowed deeply to her chest.
Yang Lin immediately understood the other person's thoughts and comforted, "It's alright, the matter between me and your father is over. Besides, your father also received his due punishment. He even compensated me with a lot of silver and land. The past is in the past, I won't blame you."
"No!"
Liu Qiao Yun hurriedly shook her head: "Actually, my father gave you silver and land because he was worried that during his absence, our family's wealth would attract misfortune. So he put it with you to divert the bad luck! When he returns, he will deal with you and take back all the silver and land!"
"Really! When my mother and brother told me these things today, I heard them all."
"My father has arranged for my brother to be sent to Pingyuan County. I've asked a powerful uncle of ours there to help! He has a lot of influence in Pingyuan County, so if he agrees to intervene, my father can get him released quickly. Then they definitely won't let you go!"
"And also, my family actually has more silver than I gave you. Besides the over three thousand taels, my family still has over a thousand taels!"
Liu Qiao Yun hurriedly explained.
Yang Lin was dumbfounded.
He was surprised not by Liu Youcai's plan, but by Liu Qiyun. She had actually become a traitor to the Liu family for herself
Is this the power of love
It's a pity, now Yang Lin has no more of that hazy infatuation for her. At most, he only feels pity.
Thank you for telling me these things.
Yang Lin nodded and expressed his sincere gratitude.
Liu Qiuyun hurriedly shook her head: "This is what I should do. It's my father who owes you an apology, but I... I don't want you to oppose my father either. What if... when my father returns, you two work together!"
Liu Qiao Yun nervously looked at Yang Lin, afraid that Yang Lin would say no.
Yang Lin smiled wryly: "Between me and your father, there's an irreconcilable contradiction. This isn't a case of two tigers can't share the same mountain, but the inevitable result of exploitation meeting its opposite."
Seeing Liu Qiyun's lost and dejected expression, Yang Lin took a deep breath: "Qiyun, forget about me! I have a wife now, and things I want to do. I promised your father that I would take care of your family. As long as they don't bother me again, I will keep my word."
"As for us..."
Yang Lin shook his head.
Seeing the tears welling up in the girl's eyes, Yang Lin steeled himself and made a gesture of invitation.
Liu Qiao Yun's tears could no longer be held back, she cried and ran out.
He knew that doing this would hurt Liu Qiaoyun, but when it comes to love, you have to be decisive and cut the mess clean. He wasn't a scumbag; if he didn't like someone, he wouldn't string them along.
Now, Yang Lin is very satisfied with his life.
These wives I brought home haven't even gotten settled yet, where would I have the time to think about new relationships
The next afternoon, a pork feast!
More than 200 households, with at least five or six hundred people, gathered at the village entrance.
Below twenty iron cauldrons, firewood crackled and popped, the aroma of meat filling the entire mountain village. Every face wore a smile of happiness. Children held their bowls and chopsticks, guarding the big cauldron, mouths watering with anticipation.
"Ding ding ding!"
Zhao Fu貴 knocked on the gong and shouted loudly, “Quiet! The pork feast is about to begin. Before today's pork feast, Yang Lin has something to say to everyone!”
Hearing the name Yang Lin, the villagers immediately fell silent and looked expectantly at Yang Lin standing on the large stone.
Yang Lin smiled and said, "Brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts, welcome everyone to come to the banquet. Are you all wondering now that I, Yang Lin, have stepped forward again, if there will be any good news" The villagers all stared at Yang Lin eagerly and blankly.
Good thing
They wouldn't dare to think so.
Yesterday, five good things were announced. In just one day, where did so many good things come from
"Everybody guessed it right!"
"Today, there's actually still one good thing to announce!"
Upon hearing Yang Lin's words, the scene instantly became noisy.
Everyone couldn't believe it, what good thing could happen so quickly
"Quiet! Listen to Yang Lin!"
Zhao Fugui knocked on the copper gong again.
"The thing is, before he was taken away, Liu Youcai felt very guilty about what he did to me. So besides compensating me for all the land he had looted, he also gave me three thousand taels of silver!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the scene erupted in an uproar once more.
Three thousand two!
This is simply astronomical for the villagers.
Everyone stared in astonishment at Yang Lin.
Everyone understands the saying "don't flaunt your wealth," Yang Lin wouldn't be unaware of this, but why would he, having received so much silver, not keep it hidden but instead openly proclaim it
What is he trying to do
"I'm sure you're all wondering why I'm bringing this up Showing off Of course not!"
Yang Lin shook his head. "As I've said, I, Yang Lin, make money the right way and never engage in unethical practices!"
"All this silver that Liu Youcai gave me was earned through the exploitation of many people over the years. If I were to use it for my own pleasure, I, Yang Lin, would feel uneasy! Besides, I am not really interested in money."
But although this money is mine, I can't just give it away for nothing! Giving someone money for free would make me look like a fool.
Everyone burst into laughter.
"So I decided, all of this money, I spent it all!"
The villagers were amazed again.
Spent
That's over three thousand ounces!
Can you afford it
As for how to spend it meaningfully, I've come up with a way.
As the saying goes, "Taking from the people and using for the people." We should use this money as effectively as possible. We need to use it to make all our lives better!
Yang Lin's words hadn't finished before Li Yuyue's heart skipped a beat.
From the people, for the people!
This makes perfect sense!
Although the words are simple, the realm within them is awe-inspiring!
To think such words would come from the mouth of a country scholar!
Li Yuyao stared blankly at Yang Lin, her mind racing...
"I'm going to divide this three thousand taels of silver into three parts to spend."
"In the first part, I will contribute 500 taels of silver to establish a mutual aid fund to help everyone overcome difficulties in life!"
"This mutual aid fund, let's have our village head manage it."rkness, four stealthy figures in black were walking into the yard.Big sister's head buzzed.She pinched herself hard, making sure this wasn't a dream. Forgetting the crossbow beside her, she rushed ove...
