“What’s wrong?” Liu Guixia was baffled. “What happened? Are you both okay?”

Xue Dafu and the others were also confused and did not understand why the two boys were acting so strangely.

Xue Sifu then said, “Something happened to the Jiang family. His whole family was killed.”

“Ah?” Liu Guixia and the others were stunned.

Xue Erfu also spoke, but he said to Jiang Yue, “Jiang Yue, fortunately, you’re no longer related to that family. Don’t be sad. Even if they’re gone, you still have us.”

Jiang Yue said, “I’m not sad.”

“Right, right, right. Why would Jiang Yue be sad? All of them were animals.” Liu Guixia quickly pulled Jiang Yue into her arms. In all honesty, she was afraid that Jiang Yue would be sad and was using those words to comfort her.

After all, even though they severed ties, he was still Jiang Yue’s uncle.

Li Hehua did the same. She did not care if her belly was big or not. She squatted down as much as possible and looked at Jiang Yue with heartache. Jiang Yue looked at Xue Yan and pleaded with her eyes; she really was unbothered.

Xue Yan only coughed dryly.

“What’s going on? How did he get killed?” Xue Dafu asked anxiously.

“Last night, the authorities caught a fugitive who was sentenced to behead after autumn. The prisoner told us that he had been staying in Jiangs house for the past few days.

“He said that he wasn’t Jiangs cousin. Jiang took his money and let him stay at home. He even confessed to lying and said that he was Jiangs cousin. The prisoner thought that the authorities would find him sooner or later, so he wanted to hide in another place.

“Therefore, he killed Jiangs family and took away the money that was originally given to Jiang. He didn’t expect to be caught by the authorities in the middle of the night when he tried to run.

“The officers came over early this morning to verify the story. When they found the runner, he brought them to Jiangs house,

“The door to Jiang’s house was tightly shut from the inside. At first, the people of Willow Village thought that the people in Jiangs house were asleep. When the officers kicked open the door, they saw that Jiangs family was really dead.

“They were all killed with a single stab. The wounds were the same as those caused by the weapon brought by the runner. That knife was held in the hands of the captured.

“The officers told everyone that if they saw someone they didn’t recognize in the future, they shouldn’t bring them home casually regardless of whether they paid them or not.

“No one is safe from strangers. As long as they didn’t bring them home, they would be fine. Li Zheng also told the people who were watching to inform others about this so that a situation like Jiangs would not happen again.” Xue Sifu concluded everything.

After hearing Xue Sifu’s words, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan both felt that Shao Zhongxi had handled this matter quite well.

Not only had this matter been resolved, but it had also not caused panic among the people. Everyone would not be on tenterhooks every day. It would also make everyone more vigilant and not bring anyone home regardless of who they were.

“After what happened, who would dare to bring strangers home in the future?”Liu Guixia sighed. Xue Dafu also sighed.”

Everyone agreed.

After a while, Village Chief Lu struck the gong and went from house to house, telling them not to bring anyone they didn’t know home.

A person had died in Willow Village, and a large family had died. For fear of scaring the children, every family in the surrounding villages did not allow their children to go to Willow Village..
