Chapter Seventy-Eight: Arbitration

As soon as Yan Erniang admitted, the villagers were in an uproar, and they all pointed at her, Ling'er snorted coldly, went back to help her father, and said loudly to everyone:

"Grandparents, uncles, aunts and aunts, please be a witness for our family, I, Yang Ling'er, am just a country girl with a little more strength, I never do anything wrong, and I haven't beaten anyone, it is clear that Aunt Yan hates me for scaring his son during the New Year, and deliberately has nothing to do!"

Then she turned to Yan Erniang and said: "Second aunt, our family of three is old and young, although we have settled in Wangjia Village for many years, and we really treat all uncles and aunts as our own relatives, but after all, we are not surnamed Wang, there are always so many people who think that our family is easy to bully, all dirty water is poured on us, and all pickled things are on us!"

In the past, I was young and stupid, but today let's make it clear, our Yang family is not so easy to bully. Since the mountain god takes pity on our family and gives me strength, who dares to bully the door for no reason in the future, I Yang Ling'er will never be soft! ”

Ling'er raised the stick with one hand and slashed it the stone next to him, with a click, the three-finger-thick wooden stick was broken into several sections, and a shallow pit was also split on the huge bluestone next to it, and there was a faint crack below!

Everyone was silent, looking at the big bluestone in a daze, until a familiar and crisp voice came from outside the crowd: "Let Rang, let Rang, my grandfather is here!" ”

The villagers made a way to come, and Yue'er helped the old village chief in, followed by Li Fugui and his 'companions'. Yue'er glanced around, pointed to the pile of furniture that was still burning, and exclaimed: "Oh, grandpa, you see, they burned all the furniture in Ling'er's house!" Oops, even the straw on the roof has been pulled off! Who is so lacking in virtue? ”

The old village chief swept around with a serious face, and finally his eyes fell on Yan Erniang and the few men she brought: "Jiaming daughter-in-law, are you a man?" ”

Yan Erniang was stunned for a moment, and quickly stood up: "Old village chief, that... You misunderstood, I... I'm actually here to ......."

"You're a man?" The old village chief asked again in a deep voice, Yan Erniang stammered for a long time, and finally her brother-in-law Wang Jiaxiang stood up and saluted the old village chief respectfully:

"The old village chief is good, half a month ago, my eldest nephew was infected with wind and cold at my sister-in-law's house, and I saw that many doctors took a lot of medicine and did not get better, but it became more and more serious, and the eldest brother was worried, and he took his eldest nephew to the next county to seek medical treatment a few days ago!"

"If you are seeking medical treatment, why do you still bring people here to mess around?"

Yan Erniang shrank and stammered, "I... I've heard from others that the fortune teller at the Temple is very accurate, and he said... Say... Our little strong was... ......"

"Confused, if you say a casual word, you are going to burn people's houses and drive them out? Do you still have the royal law in your eyes? ”

"I... I ......"

"Hmph, do you know that what you did today is enough for you to eat half a lifetime in prison or even exile from the army?"

Yan Erniang and several men were so frightened that their faces turned white, and then the man who was squatting on the ground said: "Old village chief, it is indeed wrong for us to come to Wangjia Village to make trouble, but look at it, this little girl doll in your village looks thin and small, and she broke the legs of my eldest brother and second brother with a stick, how can ordinary people have such ability?" ”

The man lifted the trouser legs of the two men with broken legs, revealing the knees that were already swollen inside, the village chief glanced at it, and suddenly showed surprise, Wang Fugui in the back leaned in to take a look, and exclaimed:

"Oops, the swelling is so high, it must be broken! I'll just say that the stupid girl is a monster, she used to hit me with a small stone, and I had a big bag on my head, and I couldn't get rid of it for half a month, and I told you that you still don't believe it, so you should believe it now, right? ”

Yue'er jumped out and patted him on the head: "Wang Fugui, what nonsense are you talking about?" Are you here to help or to find fault? ”

Wang Fugui touched his head and muttered in a low voice: "Originally, anyway, I don't think stupid girls are like ordinary people!" ”

"You still say what you say!" Yue'er knocked on his head several times and beat him to the point where he hugged his head and begged for mercy. Looking at the old village chief and the onlookers, everyone's faces were quite weird, and the frightened color that had just disappeared quietly ran back!

Ling'er saw that things were not good, thought about it, scooped up her sleeves and rolled up her trouser legs and said: "Old village chief, uncles and aunts, everyone see, the injuries on my arms and legs were caused by falling down the dirt slope when digging wild vegetables a few days ago, and there was a lot of blood, and it took two days to scab, and I was covered with bruises when I was beaten and smashed before.

On the contrary, it was Aunt Yan, who came to the door for no reason, burned our furniture, bullied my father, and burned our house to drive away our family. Should I just watch my parents being bullied and my house burning?

In any case, it was Aunt Yan who bullied us first, if everyone doesn't believe us, but favors the second aunt, even if you sue the government, I will ask for justice! ”

Everyone looked at each other for a moment, Yue'er took her hand and said, "Ling'er, don't be sad, I believe in you, I've been with you every day, it's been more than half a year, nothing happened, obviously they deliberately bullied you!" ”

Then she ran back and pulled the old village chief's sleeves and shook them coquettishly: "Grandpa, you see Ling'er and they are so pitiful, aren't you the village chief?" You must speak up for Ling'er! ”

The old village chief pondered for a moment, looked at Yan Erniang and his party, and then looked at Ling'er's family, and said to Yan Erniang: "Zhiming's daughter-in-law, you provoked today's incident, do you know what is wrong?" ”

Yan Erniang hesitated to look at the man who had just said bad things about Ling'er, and the man said: "The old village chief, the younger generation is the third elder of the Yan family, and the younger generation also said that it is really wrong for us to come to the door to make trouble, we are willing to apologize, and we are also willing to compensate for the furniture and repair the roof, but my eldest brother and second brother are injured like this, and I haven't asked the doctor to check yet, and I don't know what will happen in the future, you see ......"

Yue'er flattened her mouth and said: "You deserve it, who let you bully people?" ”

"Little girl, you can't say that, the villagers can see clearly, we have been in the courtyard of the Yang family for more than an hour, have we ever moved half a finger of the second elder of the Yang family?"

"So what do you want? If you bully people first, do you have to pay Ling'er compensation to you? ”

Yan Laosan glanced at Yue'er and said to the old village chief: "The old village chief is highly respected and fair, and I ask you to decide!" ”

The old village chief pondered for a moment, stepped forward to briefly check the injuries of the two men, and ordered a young man to go to the town to ask for a doctor, and then brought several elderly people in the village to discuss. There was no result for a while, and in a blink of an eye, it was dark, and everyone simply regarded the courtyard of Ling'er's house and its vicinity as an assembly square, lit a fire and gathered in groups to wait for the result.

Over there, the doctor was healing the bones of two injured men, Yue'er came over and sat next to Ling'er, pulled her sleeves, and said mysteriously: "Alas, Ling'er, your strength is really given to you by the mountain god?" ”

Ling'er frowned and looked at her: "Sister Yue'er, don't you also think I'm a monster?" ”

"No, no, how is that possible? I'm with you every day, if you were a monster, I wouldn't have been eaten and wiped clean by you a long time ago? I mean... Hehe, why didn't you tell me if you had such divine powers? I've asked Xiaohuzi, even he knows, but I'm the only one who is kept in the dark, Ling'er, you're too boring, aren't you? ”

Ling'er twitched the corners of her mouth without smiling: "Sister Ling'er, this is not a big deal, you don't know that my strength is usually greater than that of ordinary people; Besides, when you see in the afternoon, as soon as everyone knows about this, their eyes change when they look at me, as if I am such a monster! Alas, I shouldn't have hurt people on the spur of the moment! ”

"Why not? Two big men bullied your family, if it were me, I would definitely knock him on the door of the head with a stick, and let him go directly to the Lord of Yama!

Hey, Ling'er, you are so powerful, if you have a job of fighting and bullying people in the future, I will find you, let's go to the chivalrous battle together, and beat those villains to the ass! Hee-hee, it's exciting to think about it, it's so decided! ”

Ling'er watched this teenage girl dance like a wild boy, and her heart was funny, fortunately, there is no TV in this place, no novels, and she can't watch martial arts dramas, otherwise she will most likely imitate those ignorant teenagers who run away from home, and they are also known as chivalrous and righteous, right?

Everyone waited until the doctor finished the bones of the two men, and then prescribed a prescription for Daddy Yang's pulse, and finally came to the conclusion: one of the two men in the Yan family had a dislocated kneecap and a broken bone. The misplaced one will be taken back for two or three months to recuperate, and the broken one will have to lie in bed for at least half a year, and he will not be able to do heavy work in the future, and his knees will hurt when it is cold and rainy.

And Daddy Yang was already riddled with old diseases, there were problems everywhere, this time he was angry, and the old problems were committed again, this disease can be big or small, and how to take care of it in the future depends on how well the family takes care of it and how the medicinal materials used.

In this way, this incident is almost a lose-lose situation, the loss of the Ling'er family is not small, and the Yan family may not be better, the old village chief discussed with several elders and came up with a plan: This matter was provoked by the Yan family, and of course the main responsibility should be borne.

But the second brother of the Yan family was seriously injured and will have sequelae in the future; At the same time, Daddy Yang's old illness recurred, and there was no certainty about how it would be in the future, so Second Brother Yan and Daddy Yang offset each other, each bearing the medical expenses, and they were not allowed to retaliate against each other in the future, etc.

In addition, most of the furniture of Ling'er's house was burned, and a lot of thatch was pulled off from the roof, and although the eldest brother of the Yan family was not too seriously injured, it would take some money to heal, and the two offset each other.

Therefore, in the end, the Yan family must sincerely apologize to the Yang family, and promise that there will be no next time, let alone slander the reputation of the Yang family, and each of them will bear their own losses in terms of money.

After the old village chief announced the results, he asked the two sides to discuss it, and the father and mother were already quiet everywhere, so they naturally had no opinion. Ling'er felt that although her family was a little lost, she did shoot too hard, and in order to seal the mouth of the Yan family, this result was also acceptable.

And the Yan family obviously had different opinions, especially the second Yan who was told that he would be sick for life in the future, but he couldn't sit up in pain, but he kept staring at Ling'er with hateful eyes!

Of course, the Yan family, who was at a loss, finally agreed to the old village chief's disposition under the persuasion of the big guys, and the two sides signed the proposed documents and dispersed.
