Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At that time, he was only the Assistant Minister of Revenue, a position lower than the Minister of Justice, but the Minister of Justice brought his servants to protect him just in time, so he was spared.

However, Erfu and Xue Shi of his had died in that bloodbath.

They were all hacked to death by random blades…

The scene at that time appeared in front of Xue Yan. Xue Shi who was only nine years old at that time died mercilessly…

Xue Yan closed his eyes.

This matter was later investigated. It was the chief of the court of judicial review who had offended the imperial tutor at that time. In order to eliminate dissidents, the imperial tutor had ordered people to massacre the house of the chief of the court of judicial review. In the end, the imperial tutor was naturally executed because of this action.

He had avenged Erfu and Xue Shi, but at what cost? Their lives?

Erfu and Xue Shi were gone, and Yu Hongyan had cried her eyes out because of this…

If he had not taken up an official post, none of this would have happened.

Xue Yan’s lips trembled, and his throat was sore. He opened his eyes in case her family found out something was wrong with him.

After giving birth, Yu Hongyan had to eat egg noodles. Liu Guixia cooked a bowl of egg noodles for Yu Hongyan first before making lunch.

When Xue Dafu returned in the afternoon, he was elated that he had finally become a grandfather. He held the swaddled Xue Shi in his arms, unwilling to let go of the new addition to the family.

The child would only have a one-month birthday party when he was one month old. By then, all the relatives would come to visit. By then, they should have moved into the new house. If there were several banquet tables, the seats would be wide and it would not be crowded.

Yu Hongyan was still in her confinement period, and her child was still too young, so she needed someone with experience to take care of her. Li Hehua didn’t have this experience so Liu Guixia had to be at home. So, the next day, Xue Dafu brought his men to town to help set up the stall.

Yu Hongyan had successfully given birth, so Xue Erfu was relieved with the good news. However, he didn’t go to town with Xue Dafu immediately. Instead, he helped Jiang Yue find a lot of people to wash the potato starch.

There were so many potatoes at home, and Jiang Yue had already thought about it. Other than leaving a few boxes of potatoes for cooking at home and using them as seeds next year, she would wash all the other potatoes for use.

She didn’t wash them at home, she went directly to the river to clean them.

They didn’t have that many buckets at home, so Xue Erfu had asked for some from the surrounding neighbors. They were all excess buckets that these people didn’t use at the moment, so they could lend them to them for a few days.

These people were all from the surrounding villages, with most of them being aunts and uncles.

Juanzi and the ladies were extremely good at washing the potatoes, peeling them, and cutting them into pieces.

There were also men there, but they were better at physical work. They took a big wooden stick that had been washed clean and smashed the potatoes that were cut into small pieces.

Men and women worked together to wash the mashed potatoes and filter them.

Naturally, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan didn’t need to do it anymore. They just guided everyone on how to wash the potato starch out.

There were so many people, and they had been busy by the river for three days before they finished the stock.

Xue Erfu paid them on the spot, each earning fifteen coins a day.

During this period, even Lizheng and the other village chiefs came to the river to take a look. They were all very happy with the harmony.

Some of the potato starch had already been dried, while some were still settling and could only be dried the next day. However, there was so much potato starch that it couldn’t be dried in the yard at home. Instead, it was brought to the paddy field.

It was also on this day that the shop in the town had been repaired, and the plaque was also done. Everything had been moved from the backyard of the Shen’s Medical Center to the shop. The stall was still open for the day, but it would not be open tomorrow. In other words, the shop would officially open tomorrow.

For convenience’s sake, Xue Sifu had even bought a horse and a carriage to move things..
