“l understand.” Xue Hongguo nodded happily.
At this time, Xue Erfu also smiled and said, “As for Du Shanqiangs family… Xue Daxi, it’s best if you don’t go back. I’ll go and settle the debt of you. It’ll be faster if I ride a horse there anyways.”
“Thank you.”
“What’s there you thank? We’re family!” Xue Erfu laughed.
Xue Daxi felt like an outsider, so she smiled somewhat embarrassedly. Then, she gave four to five hundred coins to Xue Erfu. She asked him to take this money after breakfast and ride a horse to complete the debt.
After breakfast, Xue Yan and Jiang Yue went to the old house to practice martial arts, while Xue Erfu rode to Du Shanqiangs house. Xue Darong accompanied Xue Daxi to find the village chief.
Xue Daxi naturally brought along her divorce letter and Hongguo’s contract.
When Xue Daxi and Li had returned to Locate Villages, this matter would have been handled by Chief Lu. Moreover, Xue Daxi was initially from the Xue family so it didn’t take long to make changes!
There were so many people in the villages who had jobs. Now, there were so many people who were enthusiastically farming. Everyone was full of hope. Wasn’t it all thanks to Xue Dafu? Chief Lu naturally stopped what he was doing and immediately took the divorce letter and contract in Xue Daxi’s hands, to the county. He wanted to settle the matter for Xue Daxi as soon as possible.
Xue Daxi will be able to live alone with her daughter Xue Hongguo in Locust Village starting tomorrow.
Before Chief Lu arrived at the county, Xue Erfu arrived at Du Shanqiangs house. He handed over the money with one hand and the receipt with the other. Xue Erfu could roughly recognize the words on the receipt. After confirming that it was the one with his aunt’s fingerprint, he immediately rode away from Du Shanqiangs house without even bothering to talk to Du Shanqiang.
Seeing Xue Erfu ride away on such a strong horse that was probably worth a lot of silver, they immediately started cursing. Moreover, it seemed that Xue Daxi was quick to get her family to pay back the debt.
They must have asked for too little!
Thinking of this, Grandma Du immediately started playing the blame game. “Honey, you should have listened to me back then and lied. Otherwise, our family would definitely have gotten more money!’
Grandpa Du was also a little regretful, but he could only say, “Why are you still talking about this? We’ve already stamped the divorce letter, the contract, and the debt deed. There is no point, we were just unlucky.”
“Why do you think you’re unlucky? We should go and cause trouble!” Grandma Du shouted.
“Daxi said that if she didn’t pay back the money, she would let us take the contract to the government to sue her. Don’t you know that she can sue us with the divorce letter and the contract if we cause her trouble? If you want to be sued by the government and get beaten up, go ahead. My old bones can’t stand that beating.” Grandpa Du said weakly.
Grandma Du couldn’t stand the baton either, so she naturally didn’t dare to say anything more.
Xue Erfu rode back to Locust Village and gave the debt receipt to his aunt.
Xue Daxi took the receipt and immediately tore it up. There was no use in keeping this note, so throwing it away would make her feel more at ease. Du Shanqiangs family didn’t have this receipt, so they naturally couldn’t get money from her any longer.
In the evening, Chief Lu returned from the county. They returned the divorce letter and the contract to Xue Daxi, as well as two official promissory notes. One of the two notes was to prove that Xue Daxi and Xue Hongguo had settled down in Locust Village, and the other was to prove that Du Hongguo had changed her surname to Xue Hongguo..
