The family ate the meal, no one spoke, and the air pressure in the room was horribly low.

"Village chief, village chief, officers and soldiers have arrived at the entrance of the village."

The family had just finished eating, and before they had time to talk properly, the villagers' shouts came from outside the courtyard gate.

"Father, mother, it's time for my son to go."

Liu He knew that he would never come back once he left. The eyes looking at Village Chief Liu and his wife were full of reluctance.

When Village Chief Liu's daughter-in-law heard this, her tears that had just stopped fell uncontrollably.

"Son, my son. Why are you so confused! What good is that woman? She actually asked you to pay for her life!"

The daughter-in-law of Village Chief Liu was crying and slapping Liu He.

Village Chief Liu saw his wife crying so hard that she could hardly stand up. He stepped forward and grabbed his wife.

"Things have already happened. It's useless for you to cry. What we have to do now is to take care of ourselves so that our son won't worry."

"Yes, mother, my son is leaving. You and dad take care of yourself and don't let your son feel uneasy walking on the road to hell."

Village Chief Liu's daughter-in-law knew that what her man said was reasonable, but she still couldn't control her tears.

It wasn't until the officers and soldiers arrived at the yard that Village Chief Liu's wife had to let go of Liu He.

Such a big tragedy happened in Xiangyang Village, and the whole villagers stayed up all night.

It wasn't until the sky turned white and Liuhe was taken away by the officers and soldiers that the villagers went home to rest for a while.

In Shangbei Village, Lin Jiuyue stretched comfortably.

"Well, the weather is nice today, Xiyue, let's go shopping with your lady."

Xiyue frowned.

"Miss, you haven't had breakfast yet!"

"If you don't want to eat, let's go to the street to eat something delicious."

In fact, the food cooked by Aunt Li is also very delicious. However, Lin Jiuyue did not want to cause Aunt Li too much trouble. Of course, it also wanted to allow herself to taste other delicacies. Occasionally I go to eat on the street.

"But, miss, the slave girl is already making it. We can eat it later."

There are indeed more types of food on the street than at home, but my mother said that the food on the street is too expensive, and the food made at home is much cheaper than what is sold on the street. And the materials used are also practical.

"Go and tell Aunt Li so that Aunt Li doesn't have to prepare a share for both of us."

Since the shop closed, Uncle Li has lived in the village, and Laifulaicai and Laifulaicai live in the grain shop in the town, returning to the village to help during the day. I also eat with Uncle Li and others.

Lin Jiuyue is not afraid of making too much food and not being able to finish it. Anyway, both Laifulaicai and Laifulaicai have big appetites, and they won't be stuffed to death if they eat more.

"Okay, miss, please wait a moment. I'll go hitch the carriage right now."

After Xiyue finished speaking, she ran towards the back. As soon as Lin Jiue took a drink of water, Xiyue ran back again.

"My Xiyue is really getting more and more capable. She hitched up the carriage so quickly."

Xiyue laughed twice.

"Hey, miss, this carriage was not hitched by the slave, but by the slave's father. When the slave passed by, the carriage was already hitched."

"It turns out it was Uncle Li who set you up. I thought you were getting faster. Come on, let's go to town for breakfast."

Lin Jiuyue and Xiyue drove a carriage to the town. As soon as they reached the entrance of the village, they met Laifulaicai and two people driving an ox cart.

"Miss, ma'am!"

Lin Jiuyue opened the curtain of the carriage.

"Laifu, Laicai, go back quickly. Aunt Li has already prepared breakfast. You can eat it when you get back."

Lai Fu Lai Cai responded.

"Yes, ma'am."

Just as Lin Jiuyue was about to tell Xiyue to drive the carriage, Laifu asked.

"Miss, are you going to the town?"

Lin Jiuyue nodded,

"Yeah, let's go to town and see if there are any new snacks recently. Go try them."

Laifu hesitated for a moment.

"Miss, there are many people in the town today. If you are in a hurry to have breakfast, you'd better park the carriage outside the city. Otherwise, you won't be able to squeeze in."

Lin Jiuyue frowned when he heard this.

"Oh? What day is it today? There are so many people in the town!"

It’s the twelfth lunar month, but there are still some days left until it’s time to buy new year’s goods.

Besides, there is a war going on at the border, and the people of South Vietnam are not in the mood to buy new year's goods at this time.

Ordinary people, if they have some money in their hands, they just want to buy food. Although they have nothing to do, they will go to the town, but it is not like Laifu said that even the carriage cannot pass.

"Miss, something big happened today!"

Laicai stretched out four fingers to compare, and said with joy.

"I heard that a murder occurred in Xiangyang Village last night, and four people died."

Lin Jiuyue frowned.

Xiangyang Village? Isn't that the village where Lin Jinlian and the others are staying now? I still remember that the village chief of Xiangyang Village is named Liu. The last time Lin Jinlian and the others came to 'borrow' money from me, the village chief Liu was here.

Although Village Chief Liu came here at the invitation of Lin Jinlian's family, Lin Jiuyue felt that Village Chief Liu was a pretty good person.

However, Laicai just said that a major murder occurred in Xiangyang Village. As the head of Xiangyang Village, Chief Liu must not be able to keep his position as village head.

Lin Jiuyue shook his head when he thought of this. My heart just felt pity.

"Oh? Has the murderer been caught?"

Nodding when money comes is like pounding garlic.

"He's caught. I heard from the onlookers that the murderer is the son of the village chief of Xiangyang Village."

Lin Jiuyue frowned when he heard Laicai's words.

Is the murderer the son of Village Chief Liu?

If I remember correctly, Village Chief Liu has only one son besides his married daughter.

I thought that Village Chief Liu was quite nice before, but I didn’t expect that Village Chief Liu was also a doting person.

"You heard that right."

Lai Cai became anxious when he saw Lin Jiuyue looking disbelieving.

"Miss, when I just came here, I listened very seriously. But I didn't ask about what happened specifically."

After Lai Cai finished speaking, he laughed twice.

"Miss, are we still going to the town for breakfast? If not, I will turn around and go back and ask my slave girl to make more breakfast."

Lin Jiuyue thought for a while.

"Go, why don't you go? You can't delay my breakfast just because a murder happened, right?"

"But Lai Cai just said that the carriage can't get in."

Lin Jiuyue raised his hand and tapped Xiyue's head lightly.

"You are stupid. The carriage can't get in. Why don't we put the carriage somewhere else?"

Xiyue:......

Does my lady really want to have breakfast? From my own perspective, my young lady probably wants to see the excitement.

"Yes, ma'am."

"Lai Fu Lai Cai, you guys go back first. I'm taking Xi Yue to the town with your lady."

After instructing Lai Fu Lai Cai, Lin Jiuyue turned to Xiyue and said.

"Xiyue, hurry up the carriage, let's go see what's going on."
