Chapter 74: The Crime of Gender 74
"Survivors! That’s impossible, how could I not have heard of it? Besides, in such a situation, how could there be any survivors in that family?" The moment the person mentioned survivors, another man reacted in surprise.
"Oh, you weren’t there when Er Ni’s father talked about it, so naturally you wouldn’t know. I heard that Qin the Third’s wife, Mrs. Fang, got up at night to relieve herself and saw vagrants sneaking up to their house. She hid by herself and managed to escape the disaster. However, it seems that later Mrs. Fang went crazy from the shock and wandered off to who knows where!"
These people were unaware of Qin Shuangshuang’s relationship with the Qin Family and spoke about it in her presence, treating it as a novelty to tell her. When she heard about the family’s demise, Qin Shuangshuang felt nothing.
Joy? It seemed not. Sadness? Even less likely.
At this moment, Qin Shuangshuang felt mostly indifferent, as if hearing about something happening to strangers in a distant place, her heart remained calm without any emotion.
She left these men looking for work to help with some farm chores first. After the first batch of fast-growing vegetables matured, she would ask them to dry the vegetables.
After dealing with the laborers, Qin Shuangshuang still had many tasks to handle. Recently, everyone had already made great progress on the construction; the first to be built was the academy, followed by the all-important ancestral hall for the family.
Originally, in Qin Family Village, the ancestral hall was built in the center of the village. This time, everyone decided to use the same method, placing the hall in the middle. Of course, now they were city folks and couldn’t be called Qin Family Village anymore.
