“Oh my god, if we can get 100 taels of silver, we can live a good life every day!” “That’s right. Let me think. Have any strangers come to the village recently?”

“By the way, didn’t Tie Dan’s wife’s second cousin come once? But he doesn’t look like a fugitive!”

The leader asked, “What does that person do? How is he dressed? Is he a nearby villager?”

The villager said excitedly, “He’s just a ground digger. He’s wearing the same clothes as us. I don’t know how many patches there are on his clothes. He’s from our nearby village. His cousin married into our village. The last time she came, she was visiting her relatives!”

“Yes, yes. But he’s not from our village. Such a person would be considered a stranger, wouldn’t he?”

The leader’s face darkened. They were looking for a stranger. Why would they tell about a local villager?

If it wasn’t for the fact that the timing wasn’t right, he would have dug out their heads to see what was inside!

He took a deep breath and said, “Don’t tell us about the people who lived nearby. We want a living person, and an injured one at that. Did anyone in your village call a doctor?”

Without thinking, the villager said, “Sir, you don’t know, but we’re so poor that we can’t even eat. Who would go and get a doctor!”

“Isn’t that so? Usually, if you have a headache or fever, you can treat it yourself. There’s no need for a doctor.’

The leader did not give up and said, “Think about it carefully. This kind of thing doesn’t happen every day. It’s equivalent to a pie falling from the sky. You don’t have to do anything now and just take a hundred taels. You won’t be able to earn so much even if you dig for a lifetime!”

Although the villagers really wanted this hundred taels, there were indeed no strangers in the village. They shook their heads one after another. “There are really no strangers in the village recently.”

Fortunately, Cheng Yu came late last night and did not encounter anyone along the way. Otherwise, these people would have killed their way over.

Old Zhao happened to drive the ox cart to the entrance of the village. When he saw the soldiers, he was a little curious. He pulled the person beside him and started asking.

“What happened? Why are there so many soldiers?”

A kind-hearted person answered Old Zhao, “They said that there’s a fugitive? These soldiers are here to catch the fugitive…”

Before that person could finish speaking, someone not far away saw Old Zhao coming and shouted, “Why are you only here now? We’re in a hurry to go to town. Hurry up and drive the carriage.”

Old Zhao quickly said, “Coming, coming-”

What did catching a fugitive have to do with him? He was still busy earning money!

Old Zhao had no idea that he had brushed past a huge sum of money.

The group of people did not take Old Zhao seriously. After all, what could an old man know?

If he knew something incredible, wouldn’t he tell them?

When the group of people saw that these villagers did not know anything and were even surrounding them to watch the commotion, they did not want to continue wasting time with them. They directly grabbed someone and asked him to bring them to the village chief’s house.

After the group of people left, the villagers started whispering to each other. Most of the topics were about “100 taels of silver”.

When Chen Xiang came out of the field, the villagers were still discussing. She originally thought that it was just a joke and did not take it to heart.

When she passed by Su Li’s house on her way home, she even looked in and found it strange that there was no sound inside. She walked in again and saw He Yufeng, He Qingyao, and He Qingmu sitting in the courtyard. She thought that perhaps it was because Su Li was not up yet, so the three of them did not dare to make a sound.

Hence, she picked up the bucket and went home.

When He Dahai saw her return, he could not help but complain, “Why are you only back now? Are you addicted to working?” 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝙚𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝓵.𝓬𝒐𝒎

Chen Xiang explained, “I was enjoying the show at the village entrance, so I came back a little late.”

“What is it?” He Dahai asked casually.

Chen Xiang said, “It’s because the soldiers here to arrest someone. They said that he’s a fugitive and he’s injured. If anyone can provide clues, they’ll even give a hundred taels of silver!”

After saying that, Chen Xiang shook her head. It was not so easy to get a hundred taels of silver. Murderers were not so stupid. They would definitely hide well and wouldn’t let them see it.

Unexpectedly, He Dahai’s expression was very complicated when he heard her words.

Seeing that her man’s expression was not right, Chen Xiang could not help but ask, “Hubby, what’s wrong? Have you seen that person?”

“What nonsense are you talking about!” He Dahai covered her mouth in shock and quickly closed the door.

Chen Xiang asked curiously, “What’s wrong?”

With this, she began to feel uneasy.

He Dahai said softly, “I saw He Yufeng and Su Li carrying a bloody person back from the mountain yesterday. Su Li picked him up from the mountain. I saw the letter she asked Riceball to send to He Yufeng.”

At that time, he felt that this matter was not simple. Now, it seemed that it was really not simple.

Chen Xiang was so frightened that she quickly covered her mouth. “This is a serious crime. I heard from those bailiffs that that person is a fugitive. Hiding a fugitive is punishable by death.”

He Dahai nodded. “That’s right. I didn’t expect them to be so bold as to hide a murderer.”

Chen Xiang came back to her senses and was about to walk out of the house. “No, I have to tell the sister to hide him quickly. It will be terrible if she’s discovered. ”

She had seen that group of people heading towards the village chief’s house just now. Could it be that the village chief was going to lead them to search the village later?

No, no, she had to tell Su Li immediately and let her think of a way to deal with this matter.

He Dahai grabbed Chen Xiang’s arm. “Are you crazy? Why are you reporting to her? If the officials find out, we’ll be arrested too. Moreover, this is a good thing for us.”

He knew that his luck would not be too bad. In the end, a hundred taels of silver came knocking on his door.

He Dahai’s eyes flashed. “Didn’t that bailiff say that we can take a hundred taels of silver? If we tell them this news, this hundred taels of silver will be ours.’

“Don’t you want money? With that hundred taels of silver, our son won’t have to worry about going to school in the future. He’s so smart. He might even be able to get us a top scholar in the future!”

Chen Xiang looked at He Dahai in disbelief, as if she had never known him. “Take back what you said just now. I’ll pretend that I never heard it. It’s not like you don’t know how Sister treats us. Besides, I don’t want to take such money.

I’m afraid I won’t be able to sleep at night.”

When she heard this hundred taels, she was indeed tempted. However, Su Li had been taking care of their family everywhere these days. If she sold Su Li for this money, she felt that she would never be able to sleep peacefully for the rest of her life.

Some silver should be taken, and some silver should not be taken!

He Dahai snorted. “You’re really soft-hearted.. What’s the use of being good to us? Can she be used as money? Can she let us live a good life?”
