From the village where Liu Shi's family was located in Nanhe Town, there was a short path that could be reached in less than four hours on a mule cart.
Old Wang expected to return in the afternoon. Unexpectedly, when he went to the mountain village, he happened to hear a few gossipy old women talking sourly at the Liu family's door.
It was nothing more than Old Liu running to Old Wang's house and working for half a month, but in the end, he did not obtain anything.
"Other people also went out to do short-term jobs. Half a month of work is equivalent to 20 copper coins a day. That's more than a hundred copper coins! But you guys ran over and didn't get anything. Why do you have to do this?"
"That's right. I heard that the Wang Family is extremely poor. You guys probably didn't go to help them with the harvest but to secretly give them your own crops, right?"
