Chapter 289: It’s not me!

Translator: 549690339 |

The shack Sun Family and Sun Junyan lived in, although called a shack, was in fact a wooden house. The weather was not too hot when they were chased out of the village. To ensure that this mother-son duo wouldn’t catch a cold, the shack was built to be wind-tight and waterproof.

Tree trunks as thick as a baby’s arm were secured together with wires to form wooden panels, which served as walls that wind could not penetrate and rain could not seep through.

And because they were the mother and son, there were proper distinctions made between men and women, Tong Tiehu therefore built two separate rooms.

Furthermore, the ground inside this wooden house, although erected in the fields, was pressed as flat and firm as the threshing floor.

Under these conditions, anyone who saw this would praise Tong Tiehu for his righteousness.

Even though his own grandson had been publicly humiliated, he still managed to construct such a good wooden house. This village chief is really a good man!

Also, conveniently located next to the field was a well, which the villagers used to irrigate their crops. This solved the mother and son’s water needs.

The house was new, there was water for domestic use, and they could tend to the fields without walking a step out of their home.

What’s more, this place was tranquil. They could cook whatever they fancied without the fear of their secret recipes being leaked.

With such conditions, it felt to Qiao Xiaomai like they had moved into a new house.

Tong Tiehu was too kind-hearted!

When they were approaching, they could see Sun Family sitting at the door, grinding grains; besides her, there was a large pile of grains totalling hundreds of catties.

Sun Junyan was nowhere to be seen.

Yang Ye snapped his fingers and pointed with the fan he held at Sun Family.

“See, everything I said was not false.”

Qiao Xiaomai raised her eyebrows and secretly clenched her teeth.

The Sun Family had been reduced to such a state that even if they sold their pathetic lives, they wouldn’t fetch ten thousand catties of grain, goddammit!

Damn it!

Yang Ye happened to be watching her out of the corner of his eyes and noticed her grinding her teeth, so he laughed and said, “As I said, 1 will compensate you.”

“No need. If Sun Family really did it, she will receive the punishment she deserves. I’ll be very happy if she suffers. As for the grain, consider it as my purchase of a good laugh.” She squeezed those words out through her grit teeth.

“Why are you being so courteous with me?”Yang Ye was greatly impressed by Qiao Xiaomai’s skill. He respected those with true talent.

Moreover, Qiao Xiaomai was skilled in his favorite culinary art.

He genuinely wanted to have a good relationship with Qiao Xiaomai.

“And now that we have the evidence, it’s highly likely that Sun Family did it.” He added with certainty.

“Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness, but I can’t accept your compensation without good reason.” Qiao Xiaomai forced a smile, “Whether it was indeed Sun Family or not, we need to ask her first.”

While they were talking, the carriage had reached the vicinity of the wooden house. Sun Family stood up, her face full of suspicion and disgust, but she kept her composure.

She didn’t look flustered at all like someone who had done something wrong should be.

She even took the initiative to ask, “What are you here for?”

Her tone was unfriendly.

Yang Ye and Qiao Xiaomai got off the carriage, followed by Qiao Changshun, Qiao Dami, Tong Sanlang, and Tong Tiehu who got off the bullock cart. With an expressionless face, Tong Sanlang pointed to the pile of grain in front of the wooden house, “Where did these grains come from?”

“My son gave them to me.” Sun Family was initially standing with her hands on her hips, but upon seeing Yang Ye, she instantly became less defiant. Not only did she put her hands down, her voice also weakened considerably.

This nobleman was of too high a status, so high that she couldn’t even arouse the feeling of hate or loathe towards him.

“Which son gave them to you?” Tong Sanlang frowned and asked.

“My eldest, my second, and my third. I am their mother. I was starving to death, they wouldn’t let me starve to death, would they?” Sun Family replied..
