Chapter 151 If it were you, what would you do?
When they returned to the village, it was almost three quarters past the hour of the evening. Seeing so many ox carts carrying full of people entering the village, the villagers were all agitated. They stopped to watch, causing a great commotion. However, they did not care. The carriage went straight to the innermost part of the village. Wei Jingyi and his family's thatched house had been built, but the Shen family's property was still empty, and those illegitimate sons and daughters were nowhere to be seen.

The carriage stopped steadily at the doorstep, and Qingying was the first to greet it. His hand was still bandaged and he could not move freely for the time being.

"Why don't you just take a good rest? Why are you hanging out here?"

Giving him a displeased look, Shen Xiangwan took Wei Chengyi's hand and jumped off the carriage.

"Isn't that to welcome you?"

Qingying threw away his usual calmness and made a rare joke to her.

"Stop talking bullshit to me."

Shen Xiangwan almost couldn't hold back her laughter. She turned around and pointed at the servants who were getting off the car one after another and said, "Ask them to wash up and bring them to the main hall later."

"it is good."

Although he was somewhat puzzled as to why they would buy so many people, Qingying did not ask and turned around and walked towards those people.

"Auntie!"

Probably hearing the noise outside, the little cub ran out and hugged Shen Xiangwan's legs.

Bending down and picking him up, Shen Xiangwan said softly, "Did your grandmother and the others take you out to play this afternoon?"

"Have."

Holding her neck, the little cub didn't seem very happy, pouting and saying angrily: "Yes, there are bad guys who bully Brother Yi. I don't like to turn them over."

Those bad guys were so bad that he even saw Brother Yi crying.

"Ok?"

Shen Xiangwan was stunned. Wei Linger, who just came out of the kitchen, frowned and said, "It was Uncle Peng and Uncle Chun from the branch family. They wanted to borrow money from us, but Brother Ying stopped them. Then they approached Uncle Yi and his family and asked to borrow a hundred taels of silver. If Uncle Yi and his family were really rich, they wouldn't have built only a few thatched huts. The families quarreled fiercely and almost came to blows. We brought An Ge'er back when we saw that the situation was not right. We heard that they didn't borrow money, so they forcibly moved away the food and pots and pans that Uncle Yi and his family had just bought."

The further she talked, the more indignant Wei Ling'er became. Those two families were simply too shameless.

"They don't even know how to protect their own things, why are you so angry?"

Shaking her head, Shen Xiangwan carried the little cub into the main hall. Because they had borrowed money from them and followed them all the time, the losses of Wei Jingyi and Wei Jinghan's families were not as great as those of the others. Each family still had a dozen people, while Wei Jingpeng and Wei Jingchun only had a few people in their families. Even so, Wei Jingyi and the others were still robbed of their things. She could only say that they deserved it. If they didn't stand up for themselves, no one could help them.

"what?"

Wei Ling'er couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded. Wei Chengyi tapped her head with his fingers in annoyance: "Silly girl, that's other people's business, just take care of yourself."

There is nothing strange about the actions of Wei Jingchun and others. When a person is penniless and has trouble eating, he is likely to do anything. Moreover, if they succeeded this time, they will come again next time. If Uncle Yi and others do not use some drastic measures, they will probably suffer in the future. Once a person loses face, he will never know when to stop.

In fact, the Wei Jingluan brothers had come to look for them this morning, but before they even stepped into the Wei family's territory, he had the guards throw them out, so they knew nothing and had time to stand up for others.

"Oh."

Wei Ling'er was not stupid either. She seemed to realize something and nodded obediently while stroking her forehead.

"You're back. Go wash your hands. We'll be able to eat soon." Zhao Yuping said with a smile as she came out of the kitchen carrying a plate of food. After washing with the spiritual well water, she looked at least ten years younger. No one would refute that she was in her early twenties. This was also the reason why she had been hesitant to believe it before. The effect of the spiritual well water was too amazing.

"it is good."

After exchanging a glance with Wei Chengyi, Shen Xiangwan turned around and went to wash up with the cub in her arms.

Today's dinner was prepared by Zhao Yuping and her daughter herself. As the weather was very hot, they did not make any soup, but just cooked a pot of vegetable porridge and fried a few side dishes. However, the family was very satisfied with the meal. During the meal, Zhao Yuping talked about the separation of the family again, and her words showed that she was very angry about what Wei Jingchun and others had done.

"Wanwan, if it were you, what would you do?"

Seeing how aggrieved Wei Jingyi and the others were, Zhao Yuping wanted to help them, but she had always been kind and could not think of a way to deal with those people.

"What else can we do? The simplest and most brutal way is to beat them up. Beat them up every time they come until they dare not come to our door again."

Knowing that she would definitely ask, Shen Xiangwan shrugged helplessly. When dealing with such a shameless person, you can't reason with him. Only fists are the hard truth. Unfortunately, from the fact that Wei Jingyi and others let those people take away the rations and pots and pans today, it can be seen that they still care about the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children. If they can't remove this heavy shackle, they will always be bullied.

"Ah? But Jingchun and the others are the direct descendants after all..."

Zhao Yuping was stunned and hesitated. Shen Xiangwan shook his head with a smile: "So what? The Weiyang Palace no longer exists. We are just an ordinary farm family now. What is the difference between a legitimate child and a concubine's child?"

“…That’s true.”

After a moment of hesitation, Zhao Yuping nodded in agreement, thinking secretly that she would quietly mention it to Wan and the others when she went out tomorrow. Whether they could break free depended on themselves. This was all she could do to help them. After all, she was still selfish. No matter what, she would not let her family get involved in those entanglements.

"Second Master, Madam, those people have already washed up."

After the guards took the food away, Qingying walked in from outside with big strides.

"Let them in."

Nodding, Shen Xiangwan leaned back in his chair, narrowing his eyes slightly, and there was no trace of normality in his body.

"Yes."

Qingying took the order and left. Zhao Yuping asked in confusion, "Who is it?"

"We bought the servants."

After responding casually, Shen Xiangwan turned around and said, "Too many people bought houses today. I think the existing houses are not enough. Yuan Xiu, find someone to continue building houses tomorrow. First, build two ordinary courtyard houses on the left and right sides, and then continue to build tile houses. Build two rows of brick houses for me on the land at the foot of the mountain. I will give you the drawings tomorrow for the specific construction method."

Not only do the people they bought need to be resettled, but with Wei Chengyi's ability, it shouldn't take long to rescue Yan Lang and the others, and they also need to prepare their houses in advance.

"Yes, ma'am."

Yuan Xiu, who was called, took the order respectfully. After a brief contact, he could roughly see the position of the lady in the second master's mind. He just had to obey her orders.
