Chapter 396 Each Has Its Own Suffering
"What do you want to do? You can't touch them. I did all those things. Come at me if you dare."
Lu Shian laughed: "I didn't expect you to be so protective of your family."
The headman's son said nothing, but stared at Lu Shian fiercely. Lu Shian smiled and said, "You don't have to look at me like that. Hand over the contract now and I'll let you go. From now on, all of you in Zhaojiazhuang must behave yourself. If I find out that you still bully others, I'll send you to the government and then banish you to Ningguta in the far north. I'll make sure you live a life worse than death!"
The village head's son asked sullenly, "Do you dare to leave your name?"
"Ye, Ye Shian!"
It's just a name, why not tell it? But she left her former name, so it's not a lie!
"Okay, I've got it! Heiqiu, go find my mom and tell her that this is what I want, and she'll give it to you!"
After a long time of hard work, Lu Shian was already a little hungry. She originally wanted to let Lu'er take some cakes to eat, but Lu'er took down the small table in the carriage!
The cold wind was howling. Facing a group of people, Lu Shian and Shen Teng just took a bite of snacks, a sip of cold wind, and a sip of hot tea...
Heiqiu quickly brought the deed!
Shen Teng opened it and took a look, then clicked his tongue: "It's really shady, you make more money than loan sharks!"
After collecting the title deeds, they had almost packed up their things.
Seeing them carrying large and small bags, Lu Shian suddenly thought of a problem. With just her carriage, these people were old, young, or injured. Needless to say, it was foreseeable that they would not be able to survive for a long time.
Lu Shian coughed lightly and said, "Let's go."
These people did not want to leave. They had lived here for so long. Apart from the exclusion of the people in Zhaojiazhuang, the fields here were fertile and they had at least built a home. But now they could not stay here any longer.
With such a group of people following the carriage, one can imagine how slowly their team moved.
Shen Teng sighed in the carriage: "Shian, we can't go with them, it's too slow."
Lu Shian nodded: "I know."
They had originally thought that they could have a good rest in the county town tonight, but after today's commotion, they could only sleep outdoors.
Big Beard and Liu Xing were responsible for making the fire, while Qinghua and several other women were responsible for cooking.
Lu Shian took out all the meat in the car. There were so many people, and if he kept some for himself, someone would go hungry.
Lu Shian and Shen Teng didn't eat much. Firstly, there were other foods on the carriage, and secondly, seeing the way the refugees ate, they were embarrassed to compete with them.
After eating and drinking, Lu Shian and Shen Teng ran to the carriage to warm up.
After getting on the carriage, Shen Teng asked Lu Shian: "What are you going to do?"
"Give them some..."
"Miss Shi'an!" Qinghua called out tentatively from outside the carriage.
Lu Shian opened the curtain and saw Qinghua and an old woman standing in front of the carriage.
"Is there a problem?"
Qinghua glanced at the old woman beside her and said, "This is Granny Nian. We came here to thank Miss Shi'an for helping us and saving us from the wolf's den. She also helped us vent our anger."
Lu Shian smiled and replied: "It was an impulse, thank you is not necessary, I just hope I won't become the second bearded man."
In the darkness, Qinghua felt ashamed.
That year, the mother-in-law didn't know where to put her face. She said, "Young lady, even if you don't tell us, we know that what we did was not fair, but what does it matter? Look at us, more than 20 people, old and young, with only two strong laborers, how can we be a match for the people in Zhaojiazhuang..."
Hearing Grandma Nian's excuses, Lu Shian felt upset. She understood the truth, but what was the point of the bearded man escorting her all the way?
"Over the past year, we have been bullied and humiliated by the people of Zhaojiazhuang. This is the retribution we deserve."
Lu Shian didn't respond. She felt uncomfortable and naturally didn't want to pay attention to them.
Granny Nian continued, "I know that Miss is kind-hearted, and I also know that Miss has the ability to help us. I came here to ask Miss to help take care of us."
Lu Shian was displeased: "I said I would give you a job, and that's what I said, but if you don't do well, I won't keep you."
The old lady smiled with satisfaction: "Thank you, young lady. I will bow to you as an old woman."
Lu Shi'an didn't want to pay attention to her and closed the curtain directly. However, Grandma Nian slowly knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily to Lu Shi'an.
Qinghua was smiling and crying. She helped Grandma Nian up, and the two of them walked towards the bearded man.
The bearded man was wiping his sword. When he saw Qinghua and Grandma Nian coming over, he pretended not to see them.
Qinghua let go of Grandma Nian, knelt on the ground respectfully and kowtowed to the bearded man.
"I'm sorry we didn't come out that night. Everyone was supposed to come, but in the end I came alone."
"I know you must hate us. You protected us all the way, but we treated you like that..."
Qinghua kowtowed again and said with a smile: "You also heard what kind of life we have been living in the past year. This can be regarded as a punishment for us."
No matter what Qinghua said, the bearded man remained silent and didn't even look at her.
The old lady at the side said, "Big Beard, I know you have been a kind-hearted child since you were young. I know you are loyal, so today I am shamelessly begging you to forgive us without holding a grudge."
The bearded man still said nothing.
Qinghua stood up from the ground and supported Grandma Nian: "Grandma, I believe that the bearded man will not be really angry with us. Even if he is really angry, he will not be angry tomorrow."
Seeing that the bearded man was determined not to talk to them, the two could only leave in embarrassment.
Before leaving, Qinghua couldn't help but look back: "Big Beard, my daughter, Xiaohua, can you help me take care of her?"
The bearded man still didn't say anything. Qinghua smiled bitterly and said, "I know this request is a bit unreasonable."
After the two left, Monkey moved over: "Brother Hu Zi..."
"feel better now?"
"Much better, Brother Hu Zi. Actually, after you got into trouble, everyone secretly looked for you, but they just couldn't find you..."
Because Monkey was looking for Big Beard, he was almost beaten to death by the village head and his men. It was only because they carried him back that he was able to save his life.
The next day.
Lu Shian was awakened by the crying and shouting outside.
She grabbed the fox fur and got out of the carriage.
Everyone was gathered there, and a girl's childish voice kept crying, "Mom, Mom..."
Lu Shian felt uneasy. She quickly pushed through the crowd and saw Qinghua and Granny Nian lying on the ground with smiles on their faces. Both of them were already hard...
