Chapter 37
Mr. Xue told the younger brother of the Xue family: "Go to the restaurant to pack some vegetables and boil whites."

After giving instructions to the younger brother of the Xue family, Mr. Xue looked at Mrs. Xue again: "Everything is fine at home, why did you come back suddenly?"

Mrs. Xue put the boxing ceremony she brought on the table, opened her mouth, and wanted to ask about the news that Xue's cave dwelling crushed people to death at the entrance of the village.

But Mr. Xue obviously didn't want to say it like this, and Mrs. Xue didn't know how to speak.

The eldest brother of the Xue family heard what Mr. Xue said, and said with a displeased face: "Come on! You can't hide this matter at all."

"The cave dwelling at home collapsed, and a person was crushed to death inside. The relatives of that person came to the door and threatened that if we didn't pay 200 taels, they would report to the authorities and arrest us and put us in jail."

Regardless of Mr. Xue's blocking eyes, the eldest brother of the Xue family simply broke the jar and told everything.

Luo Shan and Mrs. Xue's eyes were terrified when they heard the words, Mr. Xue also heaved a long sigh when he saw this: "You also know the situation at home. The cave cave collapsed and killed people, and it is only natural to pay compensation. It's just that the 200 taels is really a big deal for the family. not come out."

After hearing this, Luo Rushuang just said: "Since he killed someone in Xue's cave, it is indeed reasonable for his relatives to come to ask for compensation."

The eldest brother of the Xue family scratched his head, and his tone was both helpless and tired: "The Xue family was originally in decline, and they only lived on one cave dwelling. Now even the only cave dwelling has collapsed. If there is any money to compensate others, it is because they are willing to pay for it." And I can’t afford it, not to mention 200 taels, even the Xue family can’t afford 20 taels.”

Mr. Xue also sighed, why didn't he know that something happened in the Xue family's cave, and it was only natural for the Xue family to compensate the victims, but now the Xue family has long since lost its past glory, and there is no money to pay for it. The right family will make compensation.

If it was the Xue family in the past, let alone 200 taels, there would be no difficulty if it was thousands of taels!

The Xue family used to be a well-known wealthy businessman in the local area. The ancestors of the Xue family started their business in cave dwellings and hired long-term workers everywhere. Unfortunately, with the passage of time, each generation of the Xue family was not as good as the previous generation. By the time of Mr. Xue, the Xue family had already declined. My eldest brother also had the experience of being a young master when he was a child.

At that time, the Xue family in Nuo Da had sporadic servants interspersed in the courtyard, but after Xue Shi was born, the Xue family's business was in a downturn, and even the sporadic servants disappeared.

Xue did not have a good day when she was a child. On the contrary, because she was the only girl in the family, she learned to wash and cook from an early age, and took care of housework inside and out.

The old man of the Xue family couldn't afford the money to compensate the Quan family and his wife, he was embarrassed: "Today you go home for the holiday, don't talk about it."

Luo Rushuang didn't expect the current Xue family to be so difficult, so she turned her head and shouted: "Father!"

When Luo Shan looked over, Luo Rushuang asked him loudly: "Didn't you say that sauerkraut sells well, so you want to bring some to your grandfather?"

Hearing Luo Rushuang's words, Luo Shan found a small earthen pot of sauerkraut from the box, and handed it to the younger brother of the Xue family who had just bought vegetables from the restaurant: "This is the sauerkraut pickled by Aunt Rushuang, it tastes refreshing. Dao, I brought a jar for you to try."

After listening to Luo Shan's words, Luo Rushuang added: "Even the owner of the restaurant likes the taste of sauerkraut very much, and even bought the method of making sauerkraut!"

Luo Rushuang looked at Luo Shan, and only then did Luo Shan react. He took out the 400 taels of silver note from his bosom and handed it to Mr. Xue: "These silver can be used by you first."

Looking at the 400 taels silver note in hand, the Xue family was almost dumbfounded, but it was Mr. Xue who reacted first and handed the silver note to Luo Shan again: "You are not rich, how can you accept your money!"

Mr. Xue remembered that the Luo family was not having a good time. Although Luo Shan was the youngest child of the Luo family, he was never liked by Mr. Luo and Mrs. Gu, so no one helped them.

It's hard to be able to help Mrs. Xue now, so how can I collect their money and drag them down!

The Xue family brothers also reacted, shaking their heads and expressing that Luoshan should not be allowed to post money.

"This matter has nothing to do with you. How dare you bother to pay for it. What's more, we remember that the Luo family is not a wealthy family. You should keep the money yourself and don't push it away."

Seeing how Luo Shan and the members of the Xue family pushed and passed the bank notes, Ah Zuo subconsciously persuaded, "Little fairy is very good at making money."

After hearing his words, everyone burst out laughing, and the atmosphere in the courtyard was relaxed for a rare moment.

Mr. Xue only looked at Luo Rushuang after Ah Zuo uttered his voice. Behind him was a handsome young man. Seeing Ah Zuo's good looks and noble temperament, he asked suspiciously: "Who is this child? It's from the Luo family." Is it your child? How come I don’t remember it!”

Why didn't he remember that the Luo family had such an outstanding junior, could it be Luo Zizhou who was studying in the academy.

Instead, I heard that the second son of the Luo family gave birth to a good child, who is quite talented in studying.

It's just that the child's eyebrows and eyes are really handsome, and he doesn't have the shadow of the Luo family at all.

The two brothers of the Xue family also looked at Ah Zuo after hearing the words, as if they didn't know each other.

After listening to Mr. Xue's question, Luo Rushuang remembered what he said to the officers and soldiers and the villagers of Luojia Village when he was trying to avoid being chased by the officials: "I found Zuo under the cliff. In order to avoid troublesome people in the village, we To the outside world, it is said that Zuo is Xue's cousin who came to visit relatives."

Mr. Xue nodded and didn't ask too many questions.

Luo Rushuang and the members of the Xue family united their caliber, confirmed that Ah Zuo was the cousin of the Xue family, and slowly breathed a sigh of relief, even if the villagers and officers and soldiers of Luojia Village did not believe Ah Zuo's identity, they went to Xue's natal family to seek proof , and will only get the news that Zuo is a cousin of Xue's family. This Mid-Autumn Festival trip to Xue's family can be regarded as a complete solution to Zuo's identity.

Just as he was about to continue asking Luo Shan where he got the 400 taels of silver bills, the Quan family reprimanded angrily from outside: "Kill people to pay for their lives, and debts to pay back money is justified."

When Mrs. Xue walked out of the hall, she saw Uncle Quan and Aunt Quan standing in the courtyard of the Xue family. Mrs. Xue did not expect that the son of the Quan family was killed by the landslide in the cave dwelling of the Xue family.

Mrs. Xue had heard people talk about them before they got married. The Quan family couple had a gentle temper and would not easily conflict with others. Whenever someone's family had a wedding or funeral, they were willing to help. They were well-known in the village. good old man.

The two had only one child in their thirties, namely Quan Xin, whose eyeballs seemed to be cherished. Before Xue Shi heard that the two elders had spent 30 taels of silver for Quan Xin to marry a wife in the town.

It's just that he didn't expect that Quan Xin would die in the landslide of Xue's cave.
