Chapter 140 The people are so happy today (Part 2)(1/3)

Li Zhong was startled when he heard the villagers in Zhujia Village shouting to kill Zhu Chaofeng and his son. He hurriedly said, "God has the virtue of being a virtuous person. How can our Buddhist children kill? The temple has ordered that Zhu Chaofeng and his son do many evil things, so that they can do hard work in the rest of their lives, helping the people build bridges and pave roads, and make up for their past sins!"

The villagers of Zhujia Village breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that they would be punished to be a coolie for the rest of their lives.

Zhu Chaofeng's family will revenge. If they are released, they will know that their property has been taken away by them, and they will seek revenge on themselves and snatch it back.

This is not a matter of a few pounds or dozens of kilograms of rice, it is a matter of three or five taels of silver. Even if Zhu Chaofeng and his son are members of the Zhu family, they can't control it. Besides, their Zhu family and his son are big fish and meat, and when will they pay attention to us fellow villagers?

Now that he was caught by these masters, it was their retribution!

The villagers of Zhujia Village carried the money and grain on their shoulders with confidence and walked home happily.

The people of Zhujia Village have some kind of favor to Zhu Chaofeng, but the villagers in other villages lit up firecrackers and ran around to celebrate.

"Have you heard that? Zhu Chaofeng and his son were arrested and were going to be detained and punished!"

"This monk from Baozhu Temple is a good person!"

"If it weren't for a good person, would he send money and food to everyone?"

"That is, if the people from the government come, they will be fine if they don't ask us ordinary people for money, and they will still want to distribute money and food to us. Let's dream!"

"I heard that the abbot of Baozhu Temple is a famous master in Qingzhou, a living Buddha, with profound Buddhist teachings, and can see the future and have the rare ability to eliminate disasters. The most compassionate thing is that this time, someone cried to him. He asked the temple to take people to accept Zhu Chaofeng and his son!"

"I also heard that the living Buddha is the most charitable. Because of him, Qingzhou is now stable and there is no disaster at all. He is willing to take out all his extra money to save the people and raise the orphans every day! He is really a true Bodhisattva who treats us ordinary people sincerely!"

"Oh, it's a pity that the Living Buddha is in Qingzhou. If he were in Yunzhou, we would have lived a better life!"

"Forget it, this time someone was not going to cry to the Living Buddha, but the Living Buddha sent someone to deal with Zhu Chaofeng and his son. If someone came to bully us again, we would also go to Qingzhou to cry to the Living Buddha!"

"Yes, whoever dares to bully us again? Let's go to Qingzhou to cry to the living Buddha!"

...

The people near Dulonggang were very happy, but the two owners of the Li family and Hu family on the other two hills on Dulonggang were angrily stomped their feet and cursed.

Compared to the Li family not suffering any losses in this incident, their Hu family suffered heavy losses!

Hujiazhuang was conquered!

My dad is dead! I have to spend a lot of money to prepare for the matter after my death.

Many farmers died, and the families of these people and land also asked his Hu family to pay for comfort.

The Hu family can be said to be seriously damaged and they can't recover in just a few years.

Now I'm waiting for you to leave, so that you can accept the Zhu family's property, but now you are going to send all these things out!

How can my Hu family live in the future?

No, Master Zhishen must be asked to compensate our Hu family from the money of the Zhu family!

Even though he was filial piety now, Hu Cheng ignored it. He gritted his teeth and picked out a few jade pieces from the warehouse as gifts, preparing to visit Lu Zhishen by Zhujiazhuang.

Before Hu Cheng walked out of the gate, he saw Hu Sanniang standing at the door waiting. "Sanniang, you?"

"Brother, are you going to Zhujiazhuang to meet Master Zhishen?"

"This time our Hu family suffered heavy losses, so we have to compensate the Zhu family!"

"I'll go with you?"

"What are you doing? Keep mourning for your father at home!"

"Master Zhishen has saved my life and saved our Hu family. I want to thank him for his life-saving grace in person!"

Hu Sanniang has always been stubborn, and Hu Cheng couldn't tell her since she was a child. Thinking of something, Hu Cheng nodded and said, "Let's go together!"

...

In Zhujiazhuang Central Hall, Lu Zhishen and Zhu Wu arranged for the return of Erlong Mountain. Li Zhong walked in and said, "The temple, Hu Cheng and Hu Sanniang asked for a meeting!"

These days, a branch was busy distributing money and food, and had no time to go to the Hu family to worship. When Hu Cheng heard Hu Cheng, Hu Sanniang came. Lu Zhishen hurriedly said, "Hurry and invite me!"

Hu Sanniang followed Hu Cheng into the middle hall and saw Hu Sanniang wearing a plain white filial piety dress. Even Lu Zhishen, who was used to seeing the beauty, also had a brief loss of consciousness at this moment.

She is not as cool as ever as heroic as before. She is wearing a plain white filial piety dress, beautiful and quiet. The deep sorrow that cannot be hidden in her eyes makes Lu Zhishen unable to help but want to hold it in his arms to comfort him when he sees it.

Hu Cheng placed the gift box on the desk. "Master Zhishen, if it weren't for your help, our Hu family would have a catastrophe. If it weren't for your help, we would have had a disaster. If you were not respectful, please accept it with a smile!"

The jade wares sent by Hu Cheng were all the best jade carvings from some eras. However, Lu Zhishen didn't even look at them. He looked at Hu Sanniang a little fascinated.

Zhu Wu saw that Lu Zhishen was a prison temple, but he was staring at Hu Sanniang. He coughed and said, "You are polite to the owner of the manor. Please sit down!"

After the two of them sat down with their host and guest, Hu Cheng couldn't wait to say: "Master, the Zhu family sneak attacked our Hu family for no reason, causing our Hu family to suffer heavy losses. Logically speaking, the Zhu family should also be asked to compensate our Hu family for the losses!"

After coming back to his senses, Lu Zhishen hurriedly said, "The Lord Hu Zhuang is such a bad word! The Zhu family's property is taken from the people and snatched land, and should be returned to the people!"

Hu Cheng kicked Hu Sanniang with his toes, and Hu Sanniang stared at Lu Zhishen: "Master, but the losses suffered by our Hu family, please repay us for the Zhu family!"

Seeing Hu Sanniang looking at her, Lu Zhishen was a little afraid to look at her. "That... the money and food have been distributed to the people. Now it is impossible to find it back and compensate you again!"

Hu Cheng hurriedly said, "The fields under the Zhu family can be compensated for our Hu family!"

Hu Sanniang turned her head slightly and looked at Lu Zhishen with a smile. "Master, those fields have not been distributed to the people!"

What happened to this woman today? But I felt that Hu Sanniang's attitude today was very strange. I couldn't say anything, but I felt that she seemed to be suppressing her anger.

Lu Zhishen ignored Zhu Wu's eyes and said, "This, the Sa family can make the decision to plant a hundred acres of good fertile land from the Zhu family's fields to compensate you Hu family!"

Hu Cheng shouted: "Master, more than 200 people died in our Hu family. How can one hundred acres compensate our Hu family for the losses!"

Hu Sanniang didn't speak, she just looked at Lu Zhishen.

"Three hundred acres, you can only compensate your Hu family for 300 acres of land!" Lu Zhishen shouted.

"Three hundred acres are not enough..." Hu Cheng wanted to continue asking for it.

Lu Zhishen shouted: "There are only three hundred acres of land at most, and the rest should be handled by the magistrate. It would be good if your Hu family can have three hundred acres of land. If you have too much, it will be harmful but not beneficial to the Hu family now!"

Seeing that Lu Zhishen was determined, he would not get more. Three hundred acres were only 300 acres, which could make up for the Hu family's losses this time.

Hu Cheng clasped his fists and said, "Master Xie, Xiaoke still has to go back to mourn, so it is inconvenient to disturb him. Please forgive me!"

"It should be so! When the Zhujiazhuang incident happened, I will take people to chant scriptures and chant Buddha for Hu Taigong!"

"Master Xie. Xiaoke said goodbye!" Hu Cheng stood up and was about to leave, but he saw Hu Sanniang sitting there and didn't understand. "Sanniang?"

Hu Sanniang said to Hu Cheng, "Brother, go first, I want to ask the master if I have something to do."

When Hu Sanniang heard that Hu Cheng wanted to stay, Hu Cheng reminded him, "It's still the filial piety period now! Sanniang, I'm afraid that other relatives and friends will come to burn incense to my father in a while, and we will need to return the gifts!"

"Don't worry, brother, I'll ask a few questions. Soon. Don't worry!"

Hu Cheng saw that Hu Sanniang was determined to stay, so he reminded helplessly, "Go back as soon as possible!"

"Um!"

Hu Cheng left, Hu Sanniang sat on the chair, silent.

Lu Zhishen couldn't stand this silent atmosphere and said, "Didn't you want to ask me if you have something to do? Why don't you talk?"

"Nothing." Hu Sanniang responded calmly. "There were many questions, such as, Master, why did you distribute all the money and food of the Zhu family to the people, such as, why did you insist on attacking Zhujiazhuang... But now I just want to ask one question!"

"Oh, you said!"

Hu Sanniang stared at Lu Zhishen and said, "Tell me the truth and let me stop talking about this matter with the Zhu family. Did you plan to plan early in the morning and wait for the Zhu family to attack our Hu family, so how can you take the opportunity to attack the Zhu family?"

"No, there is absolutely nothing like this! I stopped making peace with the Zhu family. At the beginning, I planned to let the Zhu family relax and then sneak attack the Zhu family. I absolutely did not guess that the Zhu family actually wanted to annex your Hu family. Sanniang must believe me in this. I don't have the ability to control Zhu Chaofeng!"

Hu Sanniang breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Lu Zhishen was just trying to plot against the Zhu family, but she never thought about plotting against the Hu family.

Lu Zhishen said apologetically: "Right? I really didn't expect that the Zhu family would be so rampant that they would sneak attack your Hu family. I'm sorry for your father's death...you weren't angry?"

"Why am I angry?" Hu Sanniang said calmly. "No matter what, after all, you saved our Hu family, and I can't be too grateful..."

"What then?" Lu Zhishen said anxiously.

"Then what, do you want me, Hu Sanniang, to agree with me?" Hu Sanniang asked in a cold tone.

"No!" Lu Zhishen said with a dry smile.

Hu Sanniang glanced at the other party. "I am grateful for your help from us, Hu Sanniang, today. But... As long as you need our Hu family's help in the future, I, Hu Sanniang, will never refuse!"

After saying that, Hu Sanniang turned around and left.

Looking at the white figure leaving, Lu Zhishen suddenly patted Zhu Wu's shoulder and said seriously: "Brother Zhu Wu, since you came up the mountain, the Sha Family has trusted you in all kinds of ways, and treat you as your confidant! Now the Sha Family has encountered a huge problem, and I want you to find a way to solve it. Are you willing to help the Sha Family?"

When Zhu Wu heard what Lu Zhishen said so seriously, he immediately sat upright and said with a serious expression: "Of course there is nothing to say in the temple. Zhu Wu will naturally report to the national scholars! If there is any difficulty in the temple, Zhu Wu will definitely do his best to help the temple solve it!"

When Lu Zhishen heard this, he became a little hesitant and said, "Ah, Brother Zhu Wu, you also know that the Sa family is 6 years old this year! As the saying goes, there are three unfilial things, and no descendants are the greatest. This...that...this...this means, do you think the Hu family will marry Hu Sanniang to the Sa family?"

What?

Zhu Wu was stunned when he heard that Lu Zhishen wanted to marry Hu Sanniang.

What did I hear?

No! No! No! No!

I must have heard it wrong!

How can a monk get married?

How could a temple get married?
