The sky was cloudy and drizzling.

Li He learned from Su Jin's mouth that Qi Yunqing had gone to the town again, and he always felt that something was wrong.

looked at Su Jin, who was cooking, and asked, "Jin'er, did Yunqing say where he went when he came back?" ”

Su Jin's hand holding the spatula paused, but quickly returned to normal, and looked at Li He with a natural expression, "Yunqing said that he had encountered difficulties in his studies and wanted to ask his master." ”

Hearing this, Li He's doubts faded, and then he said: "Jin'er, I will also go to the town to buy some rice and winter things, and send some things to Yunqing's master by the way." ”

In the past few years, the family couldn't take out anything decent to give gifts, so she didn't have the face to give anything to Master Yunqing, and this year, the conditions were better, so she planned to go to Master Yunqing's house.

"Mother, tomorrow, I'll go with you tomorrow, I want to go to town to buy a few chickens." Su Jin said while stir-frying.

Yunqing won't go to the dock tomorrow, so it's good to give him a wake-up call tonight.

Li He didn't think much about it, but he felt that these things were not in a hurry, so he nodded.

After a while, suddenly there was a knock at the door and an uncle's voice, "Xiao Qi's family, come to the entrance of the village to assemble." After saying that, he ran away without waiting for a response.

Li He and Su Jin glanced at each other, both thinking of what happened last night.

Li He's expression suddenly became a little flustered, but he pretended to be calm and comforted Su Jin, "Jin'er, when the village chief is to blame, don't admit anything, this was done by my mother." ”

"Mother, this has nothing to do with us."

Su Jin glanced at her soothingly, and then calmly extinguished the firewood in the stove.

……

At this time, a large group of men, women, and children stood at the entrance of the village, and the people of the Su family also arrived.

Village Chief He stood in front with a serious face.

This is the first time that a village meeting has been held in the village, and it seems that the matter is a little serious.

Su Jin took Li He and stood at the back of the crowd, and after a while, the village chief He in front said in a deep voice: "Boss, go and see who else hasn't come!" ”

He Zi counted it carefully, "Dad, Qi Yunqing, Sun Qing, Wei Shan, and Second Uncle Liu didn't come." ”

In the next second, the crowd answered one after another.

"Grandpa He, my father went to the town to sell vegetables."

"Grandpa He, the eldest brother has gone to the town to help."

"Grandpa He, my Sun Qing has gone to the town to help at the dock."

Seeing that they had all returned, Su Jin raised her voice a little, "Grandpa He, my family Yunqing has gone to a private school." ”

After Village Chief He nodded, his tone was stern, "Crescent Village has always regarded harmony as good, but now it is a vicious person. ”

The crowd was in an uproar, looking left and right for some reason.

Then he heard the village chief He say again: "Ma Wang's and Wang He's two sisters-in-law were beaten unconscious at the door of their homes last night.

"Who did it, stand up and confess, and you can deal with it lightly, otherwise when I find out, I will be driven out of the village!" Speaking of the back, his voice was a little heavier.

Today, the two families of Ma Wang came to say this, and he didn't pay much attention to it, but when he went to see it, he found that the matter was very serious.

Ma Wang and Wang He's faces were nowhere to be seen, and they didn't have much anger.

Crescent Village has not seen such a vile behavior in recent decades.

Hearing this, Li He turned a little whiter, and subconsciously glanced at Su Jin, who shook his head at her and signaled her not to be afraid.

Su Han, who was originally dozing, was suddenly shocked when he heard the words of Village Chief He, and then roared confidently, "It's me!" ”

"Those two stinky women stole things at night and beat Lao Tzu, can I not fight back?"

"Lao Tzu is not a fool, standing makes people fight in vain."

The others, as well as Village Chief He, all looked at Su Han, and saw the bruised bridge of his nose, as well as the deep scratches on his neck and side of his face, proving that what he had just said was true.

Village Chief He frowned and scolded, "What's the matter, you make it clear!" ”

Ma Wang and Wang He are still unconscious, and he only thinks that he has a quarrel with other people in the village.

Su Han coughed, spit out a mouthful of phlegm on the ground, and rubbed his feet a few times before saying: "Last year, Lao Tzu kept vigil in Xishan, but those two stinky women didn't sleep in the middle of the night, pouted their butts and tinkered in the mountains. ”

"Lao Tzu caught them, who knew that these two stinky women were very fierce, beat Lao Tzu, and wanted to run."

"How could Lao Tzu let them run away, just kick one of them, that dead woman still dared to resist Lao Tzu, I knocked her out with a punch."

Speaking of the back, his voice was smug, as if he was still a little proud of winning the two women.

Su Jinmei's heart skipped a beat, and she explained out loud, "Grandpa He, here's the thing, yesterday there were three acres of flowers and vegetation in the owner's house, and the roots were all broken, and I didn't worry about it last night, so I let Su Han guard there." ”

Old man Niu echoed and said, "Village chief, we can also prove this. ”

At this time, everyone present understood that Ma Wang and Wang He had done something lacking in virtue and were arrested by Su Han.

Feeling the strange eyes of others, the faces of the Ma and Wang families changed on the spot.

Village Chief He frowned, in this way, this matter is still the fault of the Ma Wang clan and the Wang He clan, but the two of them were also beaten too badly.

Thinking of this, he immediately scolded Su Han, "If you can't shout, you have to beat someone!" ”

"How can you blame me, they beat people first, Lao Tzu is a man, how faceless it is to be beaten by a woman and not fight back!" Su Han's eyebrows were horizontal, and he didn't let go.

Seeing that Village Chief He's face was dark, Su Qiang had a calm old face and slapped Su Han on the back of the head, "Don't say that no one treats you as a dumb person!" ”

Su Han touched the back of his aching head and muttered dissatisfiedly, "I'm not wrong, they hit me first!" ”

Su Jin lowered her eyes and thought for a while, and then made a generous and empathetic appearance, "Grandpa He, although Su Han is not right to beat people, he has also been ordered by me to take care of it, Su Jin is to blame for this matter, so let's do it, I will give the medical expenses of the two aunts." ”

Saying that, she paused and said: "The loss of flowers and plants has to be borne by the two aunts, three acres of land are calculated without labor costs and need to be compensated seven taels of silver, and the medical expenses are calculated by me as high, about five hundred yuan, and the two aunts only need to compensate six and a half taels." ”

The medical expenses of 500 wen are already very high in the village.

Then she said: "Yesterday the flowers and vegetation were destroyed, I didn't dare to hide it, and I reported a letter to the owner, and the owner learned that the flowers and plants were destroyed, so he was angry and planned to report to the official." ”

"Su Jin thought that reporting to the official would affect the reputation of the village, so she pleaded with the owner, but the owner only allowed me one day to find out who destroyed the flowers and plants and compensate for the losses of the flowers, and she was not to blame for my sake."

"If I can't get so much money after tomorrow, the owner said that she won't look at my face, and report directly to the official, and let the government handle this matter."

The scene was noisy for a while, and everyone was gossiping.

"Oh my God, six and a half halves, I'm afraid the Ma family and the Wang family will have to smash the pot and sell iron."

"This Ma Wang clan and Wang He clan are really dead, what are you going to do with other people's flowers and plants!"

"No, no, no, I'm afraid, my legs will be weak when I see the official."
