After the five elderly returned, it was always the Zhong Family elders speaking, while the younger generations listened without interrupting.
Once everyone was seated inside the house, the eldest son of the Zhong Family, Zhong Lihui, stepped forward, somewhat remorseful, and said, "Dad, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, Fourth Uncle, Fifth Uncle, you've been through a lot. I wasn't home this time, couldn't help the family..."
Zhong Lihui's words were cut off by Old Zhong, "Lihui, no one expected this. Fortunately, everyone came back safely. It's fine now."
The eldest uncle of the Zhong Family nodded towards Zhong Lihui, indicating that all was well.
At this point, the eldest aunt of the Zhong Family asked, "Tell us quickly, how did you come back? Did the County Magistrate give you any trouble?"
Others also asked anxiously.
"Yes, yes, you handed over so much silver, the people are back, what about the mountain, is it unsealed?"
