The whole family stocked up on supplies two years in advance, so they could live a life of luxury wh

Chapter 70 If you can't afford to pay money, then pay with land!

The Wang family patriarch glanced at the ghostly figure that had suddenly appeared, then looked closely at Li Xing'er. He was horrified; this girl was too terrifying!

she....

She can actually summon ghosts?

Thinking of this, he was so frightened that he took several steps back.

In a short while.

The dark clouds in the sky dispersed.

A beam of golden light shot out from the thick clouds.

A gentle breeze blew by.

The dark clouds in the sky were immediately dispersed by the wind.

The people of Xinghua Village all knelt down.

At last.

Even the head of the Wang family knelt down and kowtowed to the mountain god to pray for divine intervention.

Wang Jinsheng's face was deathly pale. He trembled like an old man as he reached out to touch the stones under the bamboo forest. He had witnessed his younger sister's condition before she died.

He was seething with resentment.

But to whom can this resentment be directed?

Grandpa Mountain God has already said that his sister is exactly as the people of Xinghua Village described.

she....

She brought death upon herself; she couldn't think straight and went to kill others.

As it turned out, no one else was hurt.

She died by her own hand.

"Aww~~!"

Thinking of this, Wang Jinsheng covered his cheeks and howled like a wild beast.

Her shoulders were trembling from crying.

The Wang family patriarch also sighed. Who would have thought that the truth would be like this? Wang Xiuxiu had completely brought death upon herself, and yet he still had the nerve to bring people to seek revenge.

This not only made him lose all face, but also injured people in the village to varying degrees.

This is going to be a difficult situation to resolve!

The other members of the Wang family looked at each other, completely at a loss for words.

What can we do now?

So far, the people of Xinghua Village have not caused them any trouble.

Everyone waited until Wang Jinsheng cried his heart out.

Xing'er knew he was heartbroken, after all, three nephews and a younger sister had died, but she wasn't heartbroken; Wang Xiuxiu had brought this upon herself.

Her death and her son's death had nothing to do with her.

After waiting for half an hour, Wang Jinsheng went from wailing to silently shedding tears.

She stepped forward and said coldly:

"Now you understand."

"So what if I know? My sister and nephew still didn't survive."

"Whether your sister lives or dies is none of my business, but your sister injured my second sister, and you brought people to hurt the people of Xinghua Village."

"How are you going to settle this score?"

Wang Jinsheng remained silent, only bowing his head and weeping. Xing'er turned to the Wang family patriarch, "Old... Wang family patriarch, you brought people to beat us. Shouldn't we report this to the authorities?"

"Yes, I'm asking you, how do you calculate this?"

"You broke my head, we're all injured, how do you expect us to compensate for this?"

"Furthermore, you didn't even understand the situation before you started hitting us, as if you wanted to kill us. Luckily, the Mountain God intervened, otherwise we would have died unjustly."

Li Laosan is now full of confidence, and he and Liu Mugen and others are slapping their thighs and challenging the Wang family patriarch.

Before the Wang family patriarch could speak, Tian Qi, a bachelor from Xinghua Village, shouted loudly:

"pay!"

"Pay up!"

"You've broken my legs."

Upon hearing about the potential loss, the Wang family patriarch began to worry. He said wistfully:

"This...this..."

"We...we don't have any extra money!"

"You dare to come knocking on our door if you don't have the money to pay compensation?"

Liu Mugen cursed angrily.

The other members of the Wang family now felt utterly humiliated and had lost money. They were so ashamed that they could hardly answer the questions from the people of Xinghua Village.

"We...we're injured too!"

"How...how do we calculate this?"

"Are you injured?"

"Didn't you get injured yourselves?"

"We were doing just fine in our own village, and you had to come looking for us. Whose fault is it that we got injured!"

"Isn't it all your own fault?"

As Li Laosan spoke, he started swearing.

Upon hearing this, the people of Wangjia Village all turned and glared at Jin Sheng with resentment.

Blame him.

If he hadn't failed to understand the truth, they wouldn't have been beaten, much less be treated like servants on someone else's turf.

They didn't dare to talk back.

Wang Jinsheng felt the gazes of his clansmen like needles piercing him. He never expected that it was all his sister's fault. What could he say? Right now, aside from the pain of losing a loved one, he was overwhelmed by the pain.

What should we do with the people in Xinghua Village?

Hearing this, the Wang family patriarch dared not show any displeasure, and could only curse at Wang Jinsheng:

"You brat, don't you understand? Now it's all Xiuxiu's fault. If someone reports us to the authorities, they'll arrest us all. What are we going to do then?"

"Chieftain...I...I..."

"I...I..."

"I...."

Wang Jinsheng talked for a long time but couldn't come up with a conclusion.

Xing'er quietly walked up to her father and third grandfather and whispered a few words. Her father and third grandfather both agreed, and only after she felt reassured did she walk up to the head of the Wang family.

"Clan Chief Wang, I know we are all farmers and don't have much money. Since you can't compensate with silver, then compensate with land. Anyway, I know you have twenty acres of good land."

She knew that all the mountains in the village were owned, except for places like the forbidden mountain, which no one wanted.

Because there are tigers in the mountains, no one dares to take it.

The Wang family patriarch was taken aback when he heard this.

Land reparations?

How can this be allowed?

The land is more important than the lives of farmers.

He looked troubled and said:

"This won't do. You're a farmer too. You should know we rely on farming for a living. If we give you all this good land, what are we supposed to do?"

"What should we do?"

"What do you suggest we do?"

"Anyway, this matter definitely can't be left unresolved. Otherwise, we'll report it to the authorities, and you can compensate us however you're required to."

Xing'er had no intention of backing down.

The Wang family patriarch sighed, leaned on his cane, and called several elders together for a discussion.

"Chieftain, what do we do now?"

"They're determined to keep targeting us; we can't possibly give them all the good land, can we?"

"How can this be allowed?"

"I disagree with paying land compensation."

"I have a solution, which is to give them a barren mountain and twenty acres of infertile land. If they want it, they can take it; if they don't, they can say there's nothing we can do."

"But who will provide the land?"

"Who else could it be? Jin Sheng and his family each contributed two mu of land. As for the barren mountain, they gave it away."

"Then... I'll go ask Jin Sheng."

"Ask...ask my ass! We're informing him, not asking for his opinion. If he hadn't failed to understand the situation, we wouldn't be in such a passive position. Several people in our family are injured, and we still have to deal with it ourselves when we get home."

"I...I really want to strangle him."

"Okay, then I'll go and tell Jin Sheng."

One of the elders of the Wang family, who was closest to Wang Jinsheng, walked towards Wang Jinsheng.

Xing'er wasn't in a hurry; she only inquired about the situation at home. When she heard that her mother and second sister were injured, especially her second sister who was seriously injured, her heart suddenly skipped a beat. Then she turned to her father and third grandfather and said:

"Father, Third Grandfather, Uncles, I'm leaving this place to you. I'm going home for a bit."

"Okay, you can go back now."

"Don't worry, your father and your third grandfather are here."
