126. The fate of the Zhao family
Early the next morning, the village chief summoned everyone in the village to the ancestral hall, the village rules of Lijia Village have not been implemented for more than ten years, this time because Zhao's practice is too much, the village chief decided to punish Zhao at the entrance of the ancestral hall, and it is also a warning to other people in the village, let them know that unfilial piety is a big crime.
The villagers came to the ancestral hall one after another, the older one sat on the prepared stool, and the junior stood at the door of the ancestral hall, because of the order of the village chief, Lin Xue rushed over, and the village chief understood Lin Xue's physical condition, and deliberately left a place for her, and Li Qi stood behind her.
After the people came, Zhao was escorted up by Li Fu and Li Ping, Zhao had his hair scattered, his clothes were also covered with mud, and his head was lowered to make people feel lifeless, and he didn't say a word all the way.
When he arrived at the door of the ancestral hall, Li Fu kicked Zhao's calf, and pressed Zhao's shoulders with both hands to make her kneel on the ground.
"Li Zhao, raise your head." The village chief said solemnly, Zhao didn't react at all, a woman in the village walked over and pulled her head up, Zhao glared at the woman fiercely, and scolded, "Take away your dirty hands, and don't look at anything about yourself, you dare to touch me." ”
The woman stretched out her palm and was about to fan it, but the village chief scolded, "Stop, the ancestral hall is a sacred place, and you can't be allowed to go wild." The woman glared at Zhao unwillingly, and returned to where she had been standing.
"Li Zhao's family, you have been married into the Li family for seven years, and your father-in-law and mother-in-law have treated you like your own daughter, you don't know how to repay your kindness, even if you are crazy about harming your mother-in-law, now you don't know how to regret it, and you are still spreading wild at the door of the ancestral hall." The village chief said impassionedly, and the others also nodded their heads on the side, Lin Xue secretly admired, no wonder he could become the village chief, this ability to reverse black and white can not be learned by ordinary people.
"Divorce her, such a daughter-in-law must not be wanted, it is so terrible that even the mother-in-law dares to harm her."
"Yes, let her parade the streets and lose the crowd, tied to a pillar and exposed to the sun for three days."
"Shentang, this kind of thing that is inferior to pigs and dogs is also a scourge in the world."
The village chief listened for a while, discussed with the old man sitting next to him, stood up and said, "Fellow villagers, you all be quiet, I can understand everyone's feelings, now I announce the punishment of Li Zhao, according to the village rules, if the children are not filial to their parents, if the circumstances are serious, they will be punished for thirty, and then serve the village people for one year, so I decided that Li Zhao will be imprisoned in the mill after being punished with the cane, and everyone will be pushed to the mill for a year, and during this period, each family will take turns to supervise Li Zhao. ”
Zhao lowered her head, her hair was scattered and blocked her entire face, I don't know if it was because she was afraid of the village chief or for some other reason, Zhao didn't say a word, until the village chief announced the result, Zhao raised his head and looked at the crowd, and then lowered his head in disappointment.
Lin Xue also took a look in the crowd, the Zhao family probably wanted to see her family, but unfortunately this incident happened, the Zhao family was too late to hide, how could they come to see her.
After Zhao was beaten, he was escorted away by Li Fu and Li Ping, and the blood on her back was left along her thighs, forming a long blood mark on the ground.
After watching the excitement, the villagers left in twos and threes
, Li Qi carried Lin Xue into the carriage, and originally planned to send the old man back, but the old man refused, saying that he wanted to distract himself.
Lin Xue covered the quilt, leaned on the carriage and said, "Master, you said that we should hire a doctor for the second sister-in-law, the injury on her back is so serious, if she is not treated, I am afraid that she will not live long." ”
Li Qi stared intently at the road ahead, and said, "Xiaoxue, the second sister-in-law is not worthy of sympathy at all, have you forgotten that she almost killed you and the child at the beginning, I don't step on this kind of person, it's okay, help her, I can't do it." ”
Lin Xue was stunned for a moment, lifted the curtain and said, "Master, I know you hate the second sister-in-law, but if you don't hire a doctor for her, she will die." ”
"It's not that serious." Li Qi hesitated, although he hated the Zhao family, he was not enough to let her die, "Then please one, but you must not let my mother know about this matter, otherwise we will not be at peace." ”
Lin Xue nodded with palpitations, the Wang family didn't care about the life and death of the Zhao family, how comfortable she was, "Master, you take advantage of the evening to let Dr. Li come over, but don't let the second sister-in-law see you, otherwise she will only think that we are mocking her, and she will not be grateful at all." ”
When the carriage arrived at the door, Li Qi got out of the car with Lin Xue in his arms, and Yunyun and Hua, who heard the voice, took the carriage back, because there was still something at home Lin Guo and Lin Jie had already left, leaving only Hua to take care of Lin Xue here.
"Mother, baby Beibei is not well-behaved, I didn't make trouble with you." Lin Xue sat on the bed, and the two children were also lying beside her.
Hua Shi covered Lin Xue with a quilt and said with a smile, "It's all very well-behaved, except for eating and sleeping, your eldest brother wants them to laugh, after teasing for a long time, the baby and Bei Bei didn't say a word, looked at your eldest brother, closed his eyes and went to sleep." ”
Lin Xue smiled knowingly, touched the child's pink little face, and stopped disturbing them to sleep.
"Boss, the crib I told you yesterday has eyebrows, baby Beibei can't sleep in bed with us all the time, it's not safe."
Li Qi washed his face and walked in, and said, "I have already told Master Wang, and I will be able to go over and get it in three days." Li Qi sat beside Lin Xue, looked at the two children, and retracted his hand as soon as he reached the baby's head, so let's wait for the child to wake up and hold it.
"The head of the house, didn't Feng'er say that he would come back today, why haven't you seen anyone yet, or you can go to the village entrance to pick it up and see if it's delayed there." Lin Xue raised her head and said.
Hua stopped Li Qi, who was in a hurry to go out, "Don't go to see it, Feng'er has come back and is packing up in his room." ”
As he was talking, Li Feng walked in, still holding a box in his hand, walked up to Lin Xue and opened it, and inside was a pair of silver bracelets, "Mother, this is a gift for my younger brothers and sisters, I don't have much money, I can only buy a pair of silver, you can't dislike it." ”
Lin Xue stretched out her hand and slapped him, saying, "It's really bold, I dare to joke in front of my mother." He took the silver bracelet that Li Qi bought, put it on his wrist for Baby Beibei, and said, "Feng'er, I didn't expect you to be very careful, my mother forgot about it." "The ancients were more superstitious, thinking that God would not easily let the child die if he brought a bracelet to a newborn child.
