That night, the old Xu family was not at peace.
Although people from the government have arrived, no one dares to confirm whether the batch of robbed gifts and tributes are in Beishan Alcove.
"Master, are we too hasty? What if we can find something?"
Old Mrs. Xu thought of this problem after Mr. Xu entered the city, but he had already left and could not catch up.
"Don't worry, County Magistrate Zuo is a good official. Even if things are not in Beishan concave area, they are not far away. It's just a matter of spending more time, so just keep it in mind!"
Mr. Xu comforted Mrs. Xu wholeheartedly, looking confident.
But in fact, Mr. Xu was also murmuring in his heart.
Before the dust settles, anything could happen. Even if Zuoqiu is a good official, who knows what the regulations will be when the news reaches Beijing
You really can't think too much about this kind of thing.
…
The night passed and dawn came.
It was Guan Laoqi who still organized people to prepare meals and deliver them to Beishan.
After everyone had eaten, the carpet search for Beishan Aozi began.
Half an hour later, cheers rang out.
A large number of boxes were discovered. According to the marks on the boxes, they were indeed tribute gifts for the new emperor who had been robbed twenty years ago.
After noon, officials from Fucheng came with the list of tributes for that year and took care of all the congratulatory gifts.
Until the sky turned dark, the inventory was completed, and everything was correct.
When Zuoqiu informed Mr. Xu of the news, Mr. Xu breathed a sigh of relief and could finally feel relieved.
As for the rewards from the government, they are no longer that important at this time.
After sending Zuoqiu and others away, the old Xu family was all happy.
"Dad, what rewards do you think the government can give us?"
Xu Laoer was the most excited.
Mr. Xu didn't say a word, but Mr. Xu slapped his brother directly.
"I'll give you two slaps, do you want me?"
"Mom, you saw it, my eldest brother hit me again. I am not smart because he hit me since I was a child."
Xu Laoer, who was slapped by Boss Xu, immediately complained to Mrs. Xu.
Old Mrs. Xu glanced at her second son: "Don't blame your elder brother for being stupid. If your elder brother hadn't slapped you twice for nothing, your sticky head would have turned into a lump of stone!"
Critical hit!
A heartbreaking blow from my own mother!
Xu Laoer had a look on his face and obediently hid and drew circles.
"Go back and rest early. That's all. Don't mention it again!"
Mrs. Xu was really scared.
Fortunately I found the thing!
"Mom, Dad, you two should rest early, and we will go back first."
Boss Xu spoke immediately, and then took Zhou and his son back to their room.
The same goes for Xu Laoer.
But Xu Laosan's daughter-in-law, Wang, stayed.
"Dad, Mom, what on earth is going on?"
Both the eldest Xu and the second eldest Xu knew what was going on and would tell their wives about it, but the Wang family alone didn't know anything.
"It's nothing. It's just that the second child and I happened to find the batch of tributes that were robbed in Fucheng twenty years ago."
"ah!"
After hearing what Mr. Xu said, Wang's expression changed drastically.
"Dad, why didn't you tell me about such a big thing earlier?"
"If we sue the government like this, can those in the previous dynasty spare us?"
"Dad, you, you..."
Wang didn't know what to say anymore, she was completely panicked and confused. (End of chapter)
