In chapter 58, the Li family sang in the ancestral hall, and the thief shouted to catch the thief

The village cleared his throat, and the villagers who were talking in the courtyard quieted down, "I recruited everyone today because there was a big incident in our Lijia Village that caused people to be injured, and the injured person was still a baby." After the village Zheng finished saying this, he stopped first, and glanced at the villagers with his eyes to see everyone's reactions, in fact, he mainly looked at Li Sanzhu, and saw that he was holding Li Daniu with a pale face, and hid back again and again, and couldn't help sneering in his heart, so he continued.

"At first, I thought it was the two babies of which family pinched up, and the babies were stubborn in private, who punched whom, and who kicked whom. But I didn't know until I went, it wasn't the babies messing around at all, so I called the big guy here, and it was Shiro of Li Dalang's family who was injured, and he was still in the yard of his own house, and his head was broken with a stick, and he is still lying at home and I don't know. This is not a trivial matter, if the real murderer is caught, then he will go to the county government to eat prison food, if something happens to Shiro, this person will pay for his life. ”

In addition to a few insiders, the villagers also heard about it for the first time, and it exploded all at once, some were angry, some were suspicious, and some were frightened, and there was a lot of discussion for a while.

Mura Zheng was also discussed by these people, and Yu Guang paid attention to Li Sanzhu's side, Li Sanzhu supported Li Daniu, afraid that his father would not be able to hold it and bring out the matter. Whispered to remind his father, "Dad, you hold on, they have no evidence." Li Sanzhu and the Cao family didn't want Li Daniu to come, but in the household book, Li Daniu was the head of the family, so they had to let Li Sanzhu come over. Sure enough, this Li Daniu was timid, and almost let Muramasa cheat him out in a few words.

Li Daniu knew that there was something wrong with him, squeezed Li Sanzhu's hand, and hid behind him.

Seeing that it was almost over, the village said, "This happened around noon, if anyone sees any suspicious person or thing in the northwest of the village at that time, just say it, why can't that black heart ruin the reputation of our village?" At that time, there will be a daughter of a family who is willing to marry into our Lijia Village. ”

Li Sanzhu was also shocked when he heard this, and looked at the villagers in the courtyard, afraid that someone would recognize him, and after waiting for a while, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that no one stood up to speak and identify him, "Look at this way, no one sees him." ”

This relaxation, the heart hardened, "Uncle Zheng of his village, although I am the uncle of Li Dalang, but I also want to speak a fair word for the people in the village, this has never happened in this village, until Li Youzhu's daughter entered the village, first there was a second donkey, and now even Shiro is injured, I don't think it is necessarily the people in the village, or no one will see it, maybe there is something wrong with him in the family, which caused Shiro's kid to have an accident." ”

As soon as Li Sanzhu's words fell, not to mention that one stone stirred up a thousand waves, it was almost the same, this had a good relationship with Li Sanzhu's family or the few families who gave less to Situ Yan's family last time to give a banquet in return, they all shouted and scolded Situ Yan for being a scourge, and some villagers who had nothing to do with it, because they got a return gift last time, didn't talk much, just nodded and agreed, and those who had a good relationship with Situ Yan were very quiet.

The loudest one in this is Cao's, "I have long seen that the cheap hoof is a scourge spirit." If it weren't for her, how could those boys in my family even recognize their grandparents. ”

The villagers are all like this, they know where the right and wrong are, but when they hear about it at the same time, they will have a different mind, and now this matter is pulled out by the Cao family at this moment, and they all follow a few sentences. Cao's heart was very happy, thinking that this happened not only did not get involved, but also found face, and he was even more happy to talk more and more.

Li Dalang and Li Sanlang looked at these people in front of them, and suddenly felt very strange, especially his third uncle and his grandmother, for such a blood relative, he also had an estrangement with his little sister, but in exchange for the current situation. His heart was cold.

This play is performed step by step according to Situ Yan's script, including the reactions of Li Dalang and Li Sanlang, in fact, the two of them are also actors in Situ Yan's hands. She just wants Li Dalang and them to recognize who is the best person for them, although this family relationship is mixed with some calculations, but as long as it is what she thinks is right, she will have no hesitation, not to be worthy of the world, but to be worthy of her heart.

Muramasa's brows furrowed, and he just wanted to speak, but he heard the patriarch speak first, "Muramasa, I think what the big guy said is reasonable." This girl's origin is unknown, I can't tell what's going on? ”

This patriarch is very good-looking and very grudgeful, he has not received benefits from Situ Yan several times and has always been ignored, he has seen this girl unpleasantly, but now he can fall into the well, how could he let go of this opportunity.

Muramasa was a little angry, and just as he was about to speak, he heard a crisp and tender children's voice speak, "Uncles and aunts, I am really fortunate to have you so concerned." If Situ Yan didn't say anything again, she could see it, Xiao Yang'er, Li Sanlang was already blushing and thick-necked, and she looked like she was going to fight with someone desperately.

"I am soft-spoken, and it is inconvenient to break the rules of the ancestors, I should not have come, but seeing that so many aunts can come, I will also see the world. But what I didn't expect to see was that I didn't argue right and wrong, didn't distinguish between loyalty and treachery, and only relied on red mouth and white teeth to slander people's innocence, which really made me gain insight. ”

"Stinky girl, what are you talking nonsense?" Cao's family was the closest, ran to Situ Yan's side in a few steps, pointed at her nose and was about to scold, "Why, Grandma Cao, where did I say something wrong, why did Brother Da Lang leave the house in the first place, no one in the village is unclear, you think that everyone in the village is stupid, let you deceive." Situ Yan didn't give her a chance, and relied on her to ignore her, and walked to the inner courtyard as she spoke.

"Third Uncle of the Li family, what you just said about the second donkey, could it be that when he wanted to kill me, I could only stretch my neck to kill him, so that I could not do it reasonably?"

"As for the patriarch and grandfather, you are the head of the clan, you don't take the villagers to divide black and white, argue right and wrong, but distort the facts, in order to hide from the world, I know that the two donkeys are your distant relatives, you don't look down on me, but you don't need to take my fourth brother's life to save your face."

The three people who were ordered blushed, and they didn't know how to reply to what they were said for a while. Fighting with Situ Yan, these people are really self-defeating.

Situ Yan had already walked to San Lang's side at this time, took his hand, and signaled him not to be impulsive, so he glanced at the villagers, "People are watching the sky, what kind of person I am, all uncles and aunts see it most clearly, today I am here to find the real murderer, although I am only six years old, but I also have a priority, no matter what you think of me, I don't care, I just want to give my fourth brother justice." ”

"You are a scourge, where is justice, you have harmed people, and you want us to give you justice, people like you should be burned. Save the village from another disaster. Li Sanzhu saw that Situ Yan had a few words and pulled back the way, and jumped out and shouted unwillingly.

"I don't know why the third uncle of the Li family is bent on wanting to die, but he is unwilling to find the real murderer? Is this something you can't do? ”

"I haven't been to your door. You spew less blood and put a basin of on my head. "This Li Sanzhu just heard what Muramasa said, Shiro hasn't woken up yet, and no one in the village has testified against him, he is very tough now.

"I don't know if all the uncles present are willing to find out the real culprit, return the village to a quiet place, and let me, this little girl, see the notarization of your uncles."

"The girl is right, such a person can't stay in the village, and one day he will harm someone else's baby." Li Aniu knew that at this time, it was time for them to appear.

Li Si also shouted to severely punish the real culprit. The patriarch was just angry with Situ Yan, and he was still sitting on the chair at this time, and he didn't have time to stop it in a hurry.

Muramasa also knew that it was almost there, and glanced at Situ Yan, Situ Yan gave him a positive look, and then he sang the play with peace of mind, "I'm asking, has anyone been to the north of the village around noon today?" ”

At this time, everyone is in danger, even if they have been there, they will not admit it sincerely, not to mention Li Sanzhu, who is a thief, even shrank his body to the side, for fear that someone will recognize him.

"You villagers must have never been to the north of the village, Li Sanzhu, you are sure." Li Sanzhu was named by Muramasa, and his legs trembled with fright, thinking, "How could Muramasa mention him, didn't he say that Li Shilang didn't wake up?" Didn't you wake up in the middle, but now you're dizzy again, this thing, why didn't you just die clean. But now he can only play dumb.

"Muramasa, you are the head of a village, you have no evidence, why do you question me?"

"Have you been, or have you not? You didn't do it, what are you afraid of? ”

"Who said I'm scared, I stayed at home all day today and never went out."

"I remember your words." Muramasa glared at Li Sanzhu, and then continued, "Shiro was knocked unconscious, and when he woke up in the middle, he insisted that it was you Li Sanzhu who injured him, don't be in a hurry to confess, of course, I can't listen to one side." I still have a piece of evidence here, if I can come up with it, it will be enough to prove that you are the real murderer. I'll give you one last chance, whether you admit it or not. ”

"I haven't done it, so why should I admit it. Muramasa, don't deduct pots for this girl's money. ”

The two of you said a word, and the villagers who said it were all stunned, it turned out that the real culprit was Li Sanzhu, so he and the Cao family were so happy just now, was it because of a weak heart. Compared with Li Sanzhu, everyone is more willing to believe in Muramasa, and when this person's heart is biased, the things he sees will naturally be biased.

Situ Yan looked at Li Sanzhu and was sweating in a hurry, and Cao sat on the ground in fright, even Li Daniu's legs and stomach were weak, if Li Sanzhu hadn't supported him, he would have been paralyzed.

"It's okay if you don't recognize it, dare you let us go to your house to search it, the girl lost a silver hairpin that her mother brought before her death, if you didn't take it, then let me search, if you find out that the person is your victim, then you can't recognize it."

As soon as Li Sanzhu heard that it was a hairpin, his courage immediately grew, he took something, but it was definitely not a hairpin, this confidence was hardened, and he jumped three high and shouted, "Search it, I'm still afraid that you won't make it." I didn't do it anyway. ”

Cao Shi has been paying attention to Li Sanzhu's movements, and when he saw his stubbornness, he knew that this evidence must not be in his house, so he also got up from the ground and shouted, let everyone go to her house, she can't let people dirty the innocence of her family.

Situ Yan saw that the play had passed the halfway point, and she was just waiting for the end, so she stopped making a sound, and went to Li Daniu's house with the villagers.

When he was wrong with Muramasa, he only said two words, "on the beam".

Muramasa listened to it and immediately understood that the girl was referring to the evidence hidden on the beam. I am glad that this matter is much easier to do with evidence.

Situ Yan saw that the people were far away, so she turned around and called San Lang, "Third brother, you go back and let the second brother carry the fourth brother, and he will testify later, the effect will be better." ”

Entering the courtyard of Li Daniu's house, Li Sanzhu walked in front and shouted loudly to call out the family, "You can search casually, if you can't find it, I won't be done with you." ”

Mura Zheng ignored him, and called a few people who had a bad relationship with Situ Yan's family to go into the house to search, and did not enter the main house, but went directly into Li Sanzhu's house. This was discussed between Situ Yan and Mura Zheng in the afternoon, if it was Li Aniu or Li Si who searched out the things, Li Sanzhu must have bitten that they planted it, how could she leave him with such a big flaw.

The village is commanding in the house, there are not many things in the house, it is easy to find, and after a while, a few people have finished reading it, but nothing has been found. The men were just about to go out, and the village pointed to the beam and said to one of them, "Step on the table and take a look, don't miss it." ”

The man did not suspect it, and climbed up, and really let him find a tael of silver, a lock, and a bunch of keys. He took the thing down and wanted to hand it to Muramasa, but Muramasa didn't take it, and if the thing wasn't in his hand, he wouldn't be told to drop the bag.

Out of Li Sanzhu's house, Li Sanzhu first glanced at Muramasa, and saw that he shouted proudly empty-handed, "Muramasa, you have to return my innocence, for the sake of a silver hairpin, you will ruin my reputation, I don't want much, just pay me five taels of silver." ”

"Li Sanzhu, your cheeks are an inch thicker than the city wall. You see what this is? Muramasa turned sideways and revealed the man behind him, who was holding something that had just been turned out of the beam.

"These things are my own, and they are not hairpins." Li Sanzhu was shocked, but he wasn't afraid.

"Hahaha." This time, Situ Yan laughed.

"Third Uncle of the Li family, this is the best joke I have ever heard in this Li family village. You said you saved this thing, but I looked like I just lost it at home today. ”

"You talk nonsense, your family is poor and has nothing, how can you afford these things."

"You haven't been to my house, how do you know that I can't afford to be poor?"

"I've heard about it."

"I'm afraid that the third uncle of the Li family hurt people's hearts and was nervous, so I didn't have time to take a closer look at these things, this silver is indeed not my family's, but this lock is mine."

"Don't worry, you said this thing is yours, do you remember what mark is on the lock?"

"I don't remember, it's been too long."

"But I remember that there was a word on the lock, and I don't know why the things that the third uncle of the Li family saved should be engraved with my surname. Don't know how to explain it? ”

Situ Yan's words directly scared Li Sanzhu to sit on the ground, and he fell to the ground with the Cao family behind him.

"It's over, it's all over." Li Sanzhu's brain was buzzing. He was greedy for a while, when he smashed open the door of the main house, and when he entered the house, he found that there was a lock on the door of the west room, and he opened it after a few smashes with a stone, and when he saw that the lock was not broken, he put it in his arms, and when he entered the house and found the key, he was even more happy, thinking about taking the key to open the door of the east room, but before he could do it in a hurry, Li Shilang came back, and he was in a hurry, and put the key into his arms, so he kept these things.

When he injured Shiro and returned home in a panic, he remembered the lock and key in his arms, but he had something in his heart, and he didn't have time to take a closer look, thinking that this lock was not cheap, and he would at least sell it in the future and get a hundred or ten yuan, so he hid it on the beam. Now it has become evidence to expose his guilt and punishment.

Looking at Li Sanzhu like this, even if the villagers are stupid, they understand that this Li Sanzhu is the real murderer who hurts people. Thinking that Li Sanzhu had just pinched them in the ancestral hall and blamed them on a six-year-old baby, he was even more angry. A little excited, he picked up a stone and threw it at Li Sanzhu, shouting that he would burn Li Sanzhu at the stake. This calamity came out of his mouth, where would Li Sanzhu have thought that the suggestion he made just now would become the magic voice that sentenced him to death.
