Chapter 360: How's it going?
y talking about going home to plant seeds.Mayor Wang is generous. Once the irrigation canal is dug, he can give twenty catties of corn seeds to each household to share, at least providing some food s...The Li couple had almost been tricked by almost all the doctors in town. All the doctors were afraid to tell the truth because they feared Zhao's family, who backed An Tang.
They are just ordinary people. Who would stand up for them and fight for their justice
After careful consideration, Fang Jinshi understood why the Li couple trusted her, a stranger, so much.
Because she was an outsider and wasn't familiar with the Zhao family's influence in the area, she naturally spoke the truth.
Li Muhai was about to rush to the county government office at night to beat the drum and appeal for grievances, but Fang Jinshi stopped him.
"Uncle Li, I advise you not to do this."
"It doesn't benefit your family at all."
When Li Muhai was stopped, he felt indignant. "If we don't go to the county office to report them, should I just let my son suffer so much for nothing Our family's savings have almost been drained."
Li Muhai was skilled at building houses, but there were no more people in town needing new houses built. Business was slow and it was becoming increasingly difficult to make a living.
Luckily, Li Da's dumpling stall was still making some profit. Their family still had some savings, so even if he didn't make much money here, their lives at home would still be manageable.
The illness of their son had completely emptied their family. All the money they had saved for his bride price, including their own retirement funds, were gone.
This money is nothing to the wealthy, but it's a lifetime of hope for those who have less.
Li Muhai was unwilling, but still went out. Li Yuanchun, although looking young, had a very clear and smart mind.
He immediately called out to his father.
"Father, even if you leave, you'll still take our family's silver. And An Tang is backed by the Zhao family. Even if the magistrate helps us win the lawsuit fairly, he can't protect us forever."
"After this, we'll still be living in Luoshui City. If we've offended the Zhao family, will there even be a place for us to stay here"
"What kind of existence is the Zhao family How could they allow us to tarnish their reputation in He'an Hall and affect their business"
Fang Jinshu picked her eyebrows, truly impressed by this young man.
"Your son is right, Mr. Li, if you just want to make amends, I have a way."
Upon hearing this, Li Muhai immediately turned around, "Lady Zong has a way"
There was a hint of suspicion in his tone. The Li family were ordinary people and couldn't afford to offend the Zhao family. Could it be that this couple here would do
Judging by their attire, they don't seem like people of any standing. It's no wonder Li Muhai looked down on the two of them.
In order to ensure a smooth journey, Fang Jinshu specially dressed herself and Zong Yu in a very low-key manner. She put away all her new clothes and wore the old patched ones she used to wear.
I'm so poor, I might as well have the words "very poor" tattooed on my body.
This way, it's less likely to attract attention and prevent anyone from getting the wrong idea.
Seeing Li Muhui's questioning gaze, Fang Jinshu just smiled. Li's mother hurriedly pulled her husband's sleeve.
"Madam Zong, you're the savior of our son. How can you speak to her like that"
After being reprimanded by his daughter-in-law a few words, Li Muhái also realized that his tone just now was not quite right. He hurriedly apologized to Fang Jinshiu.
Fang Jinxiu waved her hand nonchalantly.
"What method did Zong's daughter propose"
"If you can truly help us get back the silver that was swindled from our family by He and An Tang, you will be like reborn parents to our Li family."
In the future, if you have any requests, our whole family will be willing to go through fire and water to fulfill them.
Fāng Jǐnxiù recalled that Lǐ Mùhǎi was a skilled craftsman. When it came time to build their house in the future, they would truly need an experienced master like him.
So she didn't refuse and said nothing, just nodded directly.
“Alright, this was promised by Uncle Li himself. Maybe in the future I'll really need your help with a lot of things.”
Li Muhai was also a straightforward person, immediately patted his chest and said he would take care of it.
Fan Jinshi didn't directly tell Li Jia's couple about her plan. Instead, she used the identity of Li Jia's relative and transformed herself into Li Yuanchun's cousin, intending to negotiate with He'an Tang on behalf of Li Jia's family.
Li Daniu knew that the two were from out of town and still spent money living in the inn. She warmly invited them to stay at her house.
"Since you're relatives, how could the people at An Tang believe that you would be staying in an inn"
Upon hearing the reasonable words, Fang Jinshi agreed. Under Li Jia's warm invitation, Zong Yu packed up the luggage of the three and checked out of the inn to move into Li's house.
Tie Zhu also didn't come out of the county office until dusk. When he returned to the Li family, Fang Jinxiu immediately pulled him into their own room and asked.
How are you buy his argument and replied coldly, "That's not something you can just buy with a little money."Wang Yan'er suddenly wiped away a tear and stood up."Isn't it that if I could be the one in charge, an...
