Chapter 288

"No." Litui shook her head lightly, her eyes fell on the clothes in her hands, "Hey, what are you doing?"

Before Fang Lin could explain a few words, a burst of food smell came, but Litui's attention was shifted to the food again.

They were also considered permanent residents in the inn, so they set up a simple pot and stove in the backyard to cook. The meals they cooked at home were very generous, and they left the meals for the few who hadn't come back, and everyone sat at the table.

What surprised Fang Lin was that Duan Nanshan also came back, because it was his old house that was being repaired, Duan Nanshan was always the first to arrive and the last to come back, and the two of them had hardly eaten together in the past half a month meal.

Probably seeing the surprise in his daughter-in-law's eyes, Duan Nanshan rubbed her hand when no one was paying attention, and said in a low voice, "Sister Rui came back today to talk about that, I'm afraid you're worried."

I was afraid that he was worried so I didn't go, and he was afraid that I would come back early because I was worried. When Fang Lin thought of this, the corners of her mouth could not help but slightly raised, and she hummed softly.

Farmers don't have the rules of not talking when eating or sleeping. At the dinner table, Fang Lin understood the whole story.

Most of the people they hired to repair the houses were refugees who had poured into Qingyang City. These people had no place to live, and they either crowded into ruined temples at night, or spent the night under the eaves of someone else's house. Now the news that the imperial court wanted disaster relief has spread widely. There was an uproar, these people came out to work to earn enough to return home.I don't know where I heard it from, knowing that they want to buy this house, and guessing that they are from a wealthy family, I want to take the risk and blackmail them.

Although the house is a bit old, good materials were used when it was built. How could the blue tiles on the roof be so easy to break and fall from the roof? Of course, the person who wanted to blackmail people was Those who don't know how to listen to this, insist on yelling at Duan Nanshan to lose money, Duan Nanshan is not stupid, and after thinking about it, he understands the truth of this.

Originally, he didn't want to argue with this person, but he was so noisy, and he was not the kind of person who would be bored and think he was unlucky, so he threw that person out of the house, and the person was cursing at the door, Duan Nanshan then said, "If you really want to exchange this arm of yours for that few taels of silver, it's not impossible. If you really cut off this arm, I will pay you five taels of silver as you said."

These days, those who are poor are afraid of being stunned, those who are stupefied are afraid of being violent, and those who are violent are afraid of dying. Just after a natural disaster, people are very sorry for their lives. How could that person be willing to scold Duan Nanshan for being cold-blooded and heartless, and then start crying Talking about how difficult he is, the play is full of acting, but the greed in his eyes is too strong, anyone can see his purpose, those people who are busy in the house stop to see how Duan Nanshan will deal with it.

As a result, Duan Nanshan took out five taels of silver from his purse, and pulled him away, "Since you said your arm was broken, you can stay here, and I will pay you the money."

The man's arm wasn't broken at all, it was just dislocated. He couldn't stand the pain from being pulled by Duan Nanshan. He struggled desperately with his other hand and said hoarsely that he didn't want money anymore.Duan Nanshan didn't use much effort to let the man slip away easily.

During the banquet, everyone listened to the ins and outs of the whole matter, and their expressions were different. Shi Rui asked puzzled, "It's strange, only we know that Cousin Lin and Brother Nanshan want to buy this house, where did that person hear about it?" ?”
