Chapter 322: Xu Chu is on trial
As soon as Xu Chu entered the supplies, he looked at Ye Mo and the others and shouted loudly: "If any of you dare to touch my mother, I will kill him!" ”
Xu Chu's round face, saying these murderous words, although it looked a little laughable, but no one present dared to laugh.
At this time, Xu Chu gave people the feeling that he was a tiger who chose people and devoured them. Although this momentum is somewhat unmatched with Xu Chu's appearance, everyone present, including Ye Mo, has no change of color.
Although Ye Mo knew that Xu Chu was powerful, he didn't expect that Xu Chu at this time would be so strong as this.
Poor and rich in martial arts, this is not something to be said casually. If a family can only barely make ends meet, then where can the spare money be used for the children of the family to practice martial arts?
Practicing martial arts does not mean that you can hire a martial arts master, but you need to spend a lot of money to regulate your body. The Ye family in Yichun City was able to let Ye Qingchi practice martial arts, because the Ye family was one of the three major leading families of the Iron Eagle Ruishi after all, and they had a deep family heritage.
And what about the Xu family? Although it is not a family with four walls, it can be seen that the living conditions are not good. In this way, how could the Xu family have spare money for Xu Chu to practice martial arts?
Therefore, Ye Mo guessed that Xu Chu just had some talent, and his martial arts were only practiced after following Cao Cao.
However, at this time, Ye Mo knew that he was wrong, and Xu Chu's momentum at this time had completely reached the level of a first-class general.
And at this time, Yuan Shu also knew why Ye Mo came back to such a place.
"Hu'er, come over to me!" After Xu's mother saw Xu Chu come back, she was a little relieved, but she didn't expect Xu Chu to come like this.
Although Xu Chu's strength has reached the level of a first-class general, he is also an out-and-out filial son, otherwise he would not have killed someone because his mother was insulted.
Therefore, after hearing Xu's mother's words, Xu Chu also walked towards Xu's mother. It's just that Xu Chu still maintained considerable hostility when he looked at these strangers around him at this time.
"Mother, they didn't bully you, did they?" After arriving at Xu's mother's side, Xu Chu knelt directly in front of Xu's mother.
Looking at Xu Chu in front of her, Mother Xu also put her hands on Xu Chu's face, and said while helping her: "Hu'er, my mother is useless, you are wanted by the government." ”
"Mother, look at what you said, this matter has nothing to do with my mother." Although Xu Chu has not read a book for a few days, he is extremely filial to his mother. At this time, Xu Chu heard Xu's mother say this again, and he was naturally relieved.
"Hu'er, my mother is worried every day, for fear that someone from the government will take you one day. This month, my mother is worried about sleeping, eating, and walking. Looking at Xu Chu, Xu's mother also expressed the worries in her heart in the past month at this time.
Hearing Xu's mother say this, Xu Chu also had a sour nose, but he didn't expect that because of himself, his old mother would be so worried. "Mother, don't worry, with the son's nature, no one in the government is the opponent of the son, and they can't take the son."
Although Xu Chu said this sentence in front of so many people from the "government", he did not care about it in the slightest. At the same time, none of the people present said anything about Xu Chu's bold words.
With Xu Chu's ability, even if Yuan Shu wants to take down Xu Chu, the price paid is incomparably huge, after all, Yuan Shu only has a first-class general like Ji Ling.
Of course, if Xu Chu's book had been known a long time ago, then Xu Chu would definitely not be wanted. A first-class military general and a butcher, this is simply not a choice question.
Don't say that the butcher first insulted Xu's mother for no reason, that is, Xu Chu killed the butcher for no reason, as long as Xu Chu is willing to take refuge in one of the princes, then nothing will happen.
"This time, there are big officials from the emperor's side here, so my mother doesn't want Hu'er to keep hiding like this and be a wanted criminal for a lifetime." Mother Xu looked at Xu Chu and said these words with difficulty.
When she said this, Mother Xu's heart was also like a knife. Under the world, is there any mother who wants to watch her son die? However, Xu's mother also doesn't want to see her son like a lonely ghost, often unable to return home!
Hearing Xu's mother's words, Xu Chu didn't have much reaction, but Ye Mo and Yuan Shu were stunned one by one.
Who would have thought that Mother Xu would say such a thing.
"Who is this man?" Yuan Shu looked at Xu Chu at this time and asked Ji Ling next to him in a low voice. Although Yuan Shu came to this place, he really didn't know who the person in front of him was.
Ji Ling has been following Yuan Shu for a long time, and he also knows Yuan Shu's temperament. Therefore, Ji Ling was not surprised at all by Yuan Shu's question.
"General, this person's name is Xu Chu, and he has been wanted for a month because of murder." Although Ji Ling is a general under Yuan Shu, he sometimes needs to serve as Yuan Shu's "secretary". For example, before coming to Yuan Shu, Ji Ling had to understand some major events in the country.
Hearing Ji Ling say this, Yuan Shu instantly had a plan to recruit Xu Chu.
"Xu Chu, as long as you are willing to recognize this general as the master, this general can be the master to exempt you from responsibility, and at the same time let you serve as the vanguard under this general's account." When he said this, Yuan Shu also looked at Ye Mo, indicating that his brother was acting faster than you.
Ye Mo didn't speak at this time, it was true that he was here to recruit Xu Chu, but first Xu's mother caused a misunderstanding, and then Yuan Shu recruited in advance, if Ye Mo recruited again, it would give people a bad feeling. Simply, Ye Mo didn't speak.
And after Xu Chu heard Yuan Shu's words again, he also had a trace of excitement in his heart. As long as people are based on Yuan Shu, not only do they no longer have to live the days of hiding in the east, but they can also glorify their ancestors.
It's just that Yuan Shu's previous shouting outside made Xu's mother have no good impression of him. Moreover, a red whip mark on the back of the chief there also made Mother Xu a little distrustful of Yuan Shu.
As for why Mother Xu didn't think that the whip mark was made by Ye Mo, Mother Xu was not blind, the head there obviously had a good impression of Ye Mo, how could it be that Ye Mo beat it there.
Moreover, when Yuan Shu came in, he was holding a horse whip in his hand. And when the chief saw Yuan Shu coming in, his body was obviously shaking.
Therefore, even if Yuan Shu proposed such generous conditions, Xu's mother was still unmoved.
As the saying goes: if you are old and not dead, you are a demon. Although Xu's mother has no culture, she has decades of life experience after all. Maybe Mother Xu has never seen such a big official in her life, but it doesn't mean that Mother Xu has not seen someone with Yuan Shu's character.
The most important thing is that Xu's mother has a feeling that Ye Mo will not ask for her son's life when she comes over this time.
"Hu'er, kill people to pay for your life, and pay off your debts. If you kill someone, there is a reason, and you also need to give an explanation to the government. When Yuan Shu handed out the temptation, and Xu Chu was moved, Xu Mu said so.
Although Xu Chu said that he didn't want to die, he was not greedy for life, but worried that his mother would have no one to take care of. Although Xu Chu has an elder brother, Xu Chu's elder brother is an honest farmer, and he will only endure anything, and will never be like Xu Chu.
But since Xu's mother said it, Xu Chu naturally won't disobey. After glancing at Yuan Shu, Xu Chu saluted and said, "The general is kind, Xu Chu has a heart." It's just that the mother's order cannot be violated, and Xu Chu did make a big mistake and should be punished. ”
After speaking, Xu Chu didn't care about Yuan Shu's surprised face, and knelt in front of Ye Mo instead. "My lord, the sinner Xu Chu is willing to be punished."
Ye Mo looked at Xu Chu, and then looked at Mother Xu on the side, and found that although Mother Xu had tears in her eyes, there was still a hint of relief on her face.
Frowning, Ye Mo was really puzzled. However, since Xu Chu has taken the initiative to subdue the law, Ye Mo naturally needs to "interrogate" Xu Chu well.
"Xu Chu, are you guilty?" Looking at Xu Chu, Ye Mo also started interrogating on the spot with a straight face.
"The sinners are convicted." Xu Chu doesn't defend either, and there is nothing to defend. Could it be that after a few words of justification, he didn't kill anyone?
"It's good that you know your guilt, but you should be careful, and this matter was the butcher's rudeness first, so you will be spared the death penalty." Ye Mo is just making a appearance, so naturally he won't really want to kill Xu Chu.
And Xu Chu was also stunned when he heard Ye Mo say this, and after realizing that he had heard it correctly, he was ecstatic and knelt in front of his mother again. "Mother, my son doesn't have to die! Don't die! ”
Mother Xu was naturally even more overjoyed when she heard that Ye Mo really didn't want her son's life, and the tears in her eyes also flowed down directly.
"However, capital sins can be avoided, but living sins cannot be escaped. When the butcher died, he left behind a pair of orphans and widows, and it was difficult for him to continue his life in the future. Therefore thou shalt be condemned to take care of the fatherless and the widow until thou shalt take care of the butcher's son and his sideburns? "Although Ye Mo is making a look, he has to do it all, so naturally he can't just say that Xu Chu is fine.
Hearing Ye Mo say this, where would Xu Chu not agree? It's just taking care of the life of the orphan and widow, it's better than dying yourself.
"Xu Chu pleaded guilty." Therefore, Xu Chu did not have the slightest objection to Ye Mo's punishment.
Although Xu Chu accepted the punishment, Ye Mo would not really let Xu Chu take care of the orphan and widow here. After all, Xu Chuke is a first-class military general, and it would be a shameful crime to waste his youth in this place.
"The butcher can earn three hundred taels of silver every year by killing pigs and selling meat, and when the butcher dies, he is thirty-three years old, which means that the butcher can earn money for another thirty years, so you only need to pay the orphan and widow nine thousand taels of silver, and the case will be understood, and you will no longer need to take care of the orphan and widow."
Xu Chu was originally very happy, as long as he took care of the orphan and widow, but Ye Mo calculated such an account. Nine thousand taels of silver, but it's not nine thousand dollars, even if Xu Chu is sold, then it can't be exchanged for this money!
"My lord, maybe Xu Chu chose to take care of the orphan and widow?" You must not lose money, it is better to choose to take care of the orphan and widow. Therefore, Xu Chu also asked towards Ye Mo.
It's just that how could Ye Mo agree to Xu Chu's request? You must know that the accounts that Ye Mo calculated before were all different. Unless the butcher could sell a pig a day, he would not earn three hundred taels a year anyway.
"Since you don't have any money, then I will give you this money, you just need to pay me back in the future, and you will not charge interest." Ye Mo looked at Xu Chu, and he was also smiling, looking extremely kind. It's just that Xu Chu looked at Ye Mo's smile, but he wanted to cry.
At this time, Mother Xu also "chuckled" in her heart, and when she looked at Ye Mo's eyes, she also had a trace of vigilance.
"Alright, that's all said of the matter, it's time for us to talk about the next thing." Ignoring Xu Chu, who put on a bitter face, Ye Mo continued
