Chapter 2442: Chapter 2442: Likely More Chaos Ahead
âŠ
Over there, in the An Clan Village, many people have heard the news that An Jiuyue has returned.
The Old Patriarch, carrying a hoe, heard the people in the fields talking about An Jiuyueâs return, and also mentioning Auntie Meiâs family scholar who set his sights on An Jiuyueâs sister-in-law.
He kept walking but shook his head and sighed softly.
Such matters, since they didnât fall on him, he naturally wouldnât intervene, unless Auntie Meiâs family really went too far, only then would he step in.
After all, back then, if it werenât for An Jiuyue, their entire village would have drowned, not a single one would have survived.
He couldnât possibly repay kindness with ingratitude, could he?
âThird Master, come over here.â
âDad, whatâs the matter?â Third Master An was called over and asked his father.
An Jiuyue has returned, but that has nothing to do with them, right? The villagers all say An Jiuyue has made it big, but they are just country folks, it has nothing to do with them.
They can just live their own lives.
âGo and inquire about how much land is listed under Scholar Queâs name, and which villagers are involved.â The Clan Leader instructed.
âHuh?â
Third Master An was dumbfounded by what his father said.
What does this mean, arenât we talking about An Jiuyueâs return, what does it have to do with those lands?
âDad, what do you mean by this?â
âYouâre so slow!â
The Clan Leader glared at him, his eyes truly filled with disappointment.
He had a lifetime of good reputation, how could he have fathered such a clueless son, who couldnât fathom such things? What could he possibly be good for?
âScholar Queâs family hasnât stopped trying to involve An Jiuyueâs sister-in-law, do you think now that An Jiuyue has returned, sheâll let that family off the hook?â He asked his son.
From what he heard earlier, it seemed that Scholar Queâs grandmother was still plotting over An Jiuyue, even thinking of marrying her in. Who on earth gave her the nerve!
In the past, he didnât intervene because he knew that no matter how much Scholar Queâs family eyed An Jiuyue, she wasnât easy prey.
But now itâs different, An Jiuyue has returned, Scholar Queâs family is bound to have bad luck, and he couldnât allow innocent villagers to be dragged into it, could he?
Judging by Scholar Queâs grandmotherâs ways, if her grandsonâs scholar title is truly lost, sheâll likely stubbornly clutch onto that land, unwilling to hand it over.
Thatâs a troublesome issue, if not handled well, the village could still have chaos.
âWhat does that mean?â
Third Master An suddenly widened his eyes.
âDad, do you mean Scholar Que willâŠâ no longer be a scholar?
He finally understood, now An Jiuyue truly had the capability, after all, these years An Jiuyue had been living on the mountain with her two children, the people coming and going were all significant figures.
If it werenât for the frequent sightings of those big figures going up the mountain, Scholar Que wouldnât have set his sights on An Jiuyue.
âDad, this is a big deal, many families in the village have listed their land under Scholar Queâs name!â Even though his own land wasnât listed under Scholar Queâs name, he was anxious.
âThatâs why Iâm asking you to investigate quietly, make sure that family doesnât catch any wind of it.â The Clan Leader lowered his voice and said.
Now Scholar Queâs grandmother still doesnât know the seriousness of it, thinking itâs nothing, her familyâs scholar is like an emperor of this village.
