Chapter 43: Justice

Listening to Chen's curse, Xu Lan turned around with cold eyes, "I can still go into the mountains to collect medicine and sell it to make money, and I can feed my mother, even if I want to starve to death, you, the dead old woman, will starve to death first!" ”

Since the relationship is about to be severed, Xu Lan doesn't care, and scolds the words she has always wanted to scold.

Chen was so angry that he almost ascended to heaven, jumped to his feet and scolded, "Cheap hooves, dare to scold me, I will kill you!" ”

"Here you go." Xu Lan protected Zhang's behind her, took out the dagger that Liang Wei bought for her today, and pointed straight at Chen, "If you dare to come over, I will stab you to death!" ”

The delicate dagger glittered in the sun, making the scalp of everyone around him tingle, and they couldn't help but feel cold.

Chen was really frightened, and his little feet didn't dare to go any further.

Xu Lan snorted coldly, turned around and left.

When I was about to walk out of the courtyard gate, I don't know who in the crowd shouted 'Lizheng'.

Then I saw Li Zheng with a calm face and strode over.

He saw the dagger in Xu Lan's hand that had not been withdrawn, and let out a low voice, "Girl Lan, what are you doing, do you want to kill someone?" Take it back. ”

Li Zheng has always been respected, and Xu Lan also respects this respected old man and takes the dagger back.

Seeing that she had collected the dagger, Li Zheng's face softened.

He walked into the yard, looked around, and then said with a calm face: "I only solved the matter of your family a few days ago, why did it make trouble again today?" ”

From the very beginning, there were legs and feet that ran quickly to inform Lizheng, and it happened to be a coincidence.

Xu Lan and Zhang turned around and entered the courtyard.

"Grandpa Lizheng, I don't want to make trouble, but I can't stay with my mother in this house."

As soon as she finished speaking, Chen scolded: "Phew! What can't you get by, less food at home or less clothes for you? The dead girl is the same as your mother, a rotten and a dead star, she should ......"

Before she finished scolding, Li Zheng scolded her harshly, "Chen, if you scold people again, I will let you go to the ancestral hall!" ”

Chen was stunned at once, like a hen choked by the throat.

Xu Dahai didn't expect to alarm Li Zheng, he felt shameless, so he was even more angry that Xu Lan made such a big fuss.

Looking at the Xu family, Li Zheng also had a headache, and the family had two accidents in three days.

He asked the onlookers for the reason, and his brow furrowed even tighter.

Xu Lan took a step forward and said: "Grandpa Lizheng, it's not that I want to make trouble, but as a child, I can't do anything when I see my mother being bullied, I can't do it." ”

Li Zheng heard what happened, and he also knew that Zhang was beaten by Chen, but no one saw it, there was no evidence, and now there is only Xu Lan's subjective guess.

"Lan girl, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, not to mention that the mother-in-law beats her daughter-in-law, it's not impossible." What Rizheng said was not good, but this is the current situation in the village.

Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, mother-in-law is in a superior position, and teaching daughter-in-law naturally has this right.

Whose daughter-in-law has not been taught by her mother-in-law, she should be punished for doing something wrong.

Although Li Zheng is biased towards Xu Lan, he can't escape the world.

Xu Lan's eyes never changed, "Grandpa Lizheng, I agree with your words, but if you hit someone for no reason, should this be?" ”

Chen beat and scolded Zhang when he had nothing to do at home, and he couldn't say anything at all.

She didn't want to make too much trouble with Tonglizheng, but the tough tone she should have had was never soft.

Seeing the little girl's tough appearance, Li Zheng sighed, "You can't do it for no reason, but you have no evidence for today's incident." ”

Chen shouted, "Lizheng, don't listen to this dead girl, she slanders me every day!" Did anyone see me hit Zhang? Not at all! It's all dead girls slandering me. ”

Twenty cents were taken out, but no one came forward to testify, so Chen must have been seen by no one.

So she was confident all of a sudden.

Xu Lan had a cold face, "No one saw it and couldn't prove that it wasn't you who beat my mother!" ”

Li Zheng said: "Lan girl, you ......"

"Grandpa Lizheng, everyone knows what kind of character my mother is, she has never blushed with anyone, who will beat her? In addition to the Chen family, there will be no second person in the family! Xu Lan's face was full of firmness, and she didn't back down a single step.

Li Zheng looked at it with a long sigh, although the little girl's mind was exquisite, but it was too strong, once the matter was determined, ten cows could not pull it back.

It's easy to suffer from such a temperament.

He was about to persuade again, but he heard a calm voice sound.

"There are so many people in the village, there will always be someone who will see it."

Li Zheng looked at the source of the sound and found that it was Liang Wei, who had just come to the village.

The young man was young but calm, and although he had a cold temperament, he never caused trouble. Li Zheng always felt that he had an unusual momentum, and he was not an ordinary person, so he had been polite to him.

"What do you mean?"

Liang Wei was still expressionless, "You can gather the people in the village." ”

The villagers who are there now are not the whole village, so the people who can testify may not be here. As long as we gather everyone, maybe someone will come out and testify.

Xu Lan glanced at Liang Wei gratefully, she knew that he was helping her.

Li Zheng frowned, Chen's heart was weak, and he used a loud voice to hide his emotions, "What are you, if you want to convene, you can summon?" You ......"

Before she finished speaking, Liang Wei swept over with a cold eye, and the terrifying aura around him made Chen's heart tremble, and the rest of the words were too frightened to speak.

Xu Lan took the opportunity to say: "I agree to gather everyone together for questioning, Grandpa Lizheng, don't you usually pay the most attention to the word fairness?" Today's matter, my mother and I want justice! ”

Things have come to this point, and Li Zheng is not good at slapping himself in the face, for the sake of fairness, he nodded and agreed, and then asked people to gather the whole village.

Xu Lan added another sentence, as long as someone can come out to testify, her twenty dollars will still be counted.

At this moment, everyone's hearts are much more comfortable.

But before he could tell the whole village to leave, a young voice sounded weakly in the crowd, "I, I can testify." ”

Everyone was taken aback, and when they looked over, they realized that it was a little girl who spoke.

Xu Lan was a little surprised, because it was the lotus flower who spoke, the elder sister of the two sisters who had been lucky enough to pick Ganoderma lucidum in the mountain before.

Although Lotus is small and a little timid, she was looked at by so many people, and although her hands trembled nervously, she still said in a firm voice: "At noon, my sister and I passed by here, and I happened to see her beating Aunt Zhang. ”

The lotus flower pointed at Chen's small finger.

Chen's face suddenly became extremely ugly, and a pair of old eyes glared at the lotus flower viciously, "Dead girl, what nonsense are you talking about!" ”

Lotus took a step back in fright, but still pointed at her firmly, "I didn't talk nonsense, I saw it with my own eyes, and I heard you scold Aunt Zhang for eating dry food and not working, scolding her for being lazy, and beating Aunt Zhang with rattan." ”
