The next day,
Father Fang took Fang Cheng and handed the idlers who had climbed into their home last night to steal grain over to the clan.
However, Fang Yue's Family was, after all, the largest landlord in the village.
Most of the Fang Clan Members had entrusted their land to the Fang Family, so naturally, no one objected to Father Fang's decision.
Although the idlers escaped having their hands broken, they wailed as soon as they heard they were being sent to dig a well.
One by one, they cried out incessantly, claiming they had been led astray, that they weren't the masterminds, that they were just unbearably hungry and had no other choice.
They only did it because they were starving.
In the ancestral hall, some of the other Fang Clan Members felt a deep sense of empathy upon hearing this.
Famine, hunger... when a person is starving, are they still human?
