Chapter 410: The Damned
"The funeral expenses were given, and the soldiers who died in the line of duty each had three taels of silver, which was recorded in my town!" Mayor Ma replied with certainty.
And Sun Lichang lowered his head and didn't dare to do anything.
Tong Wu saw him like this, and sneered, "We came to live in this village for three years, and we found so many problems, it really opened my eyes......"
The problem here is even more excessive than that of Beizhou, where the people want to live a good life but have no way to start, because the officials deceive the superiors and communicate with the thieves.
And what about here? It's simply indispensable, and so are the common people, one by one, without even a little backbone, I don't know if it's because I'm afraid of being suppressed, or if I'm used to it for a long time.
If you don't change your thoughts in a place, you're afraid that you won't be able to change your life in the future.
Mayor Ma swallowed the air, stood up, and kept affirming, "I, Ma Qiang, swear that I will definitely distribute all the funeral expenses for the sacrificed soldiers issued by the county to various villages."
I don't have any lies here, and I don't embezzle, if Ma Qiang embezzles dead people's money, I will be thundered! ”
Probably because in order to prove his innocence, Mayor Ma said these words very loudly, and they were also directed in the direction of the villagers.
When the villagers heard this, they all started to talk, "It turns out that all the funeral expenses have been paid?" But my uncle didn't get it after he died in battle? ”
"Forget, didn't we all inquire at the time? We didn't give it to those in Yiyi Village and Dayan Village, it was an order from above, these two villages are close to the Mazhuang checkpoint, so don't ......give it for the time being."
"Yes, yes, we went to other villages to inquire at that time, and all the other villages gave ......"
When Tong Wu heard this, she really wanted to roll her eyes at these ignorant people, she snorted coldly:
"Do they believe it if they don't give it to you? What about three taels of silver for a family? Don't you care? Is it really weird? And you, as the mayor of a town, are happy to come out to prove your innocence at this time, do you think you can be innocent?
For the sake of the lack of this village and Dayan Village, don't you think about it as the mayor of the town? When I received money from others and arrested me, I was quite like the mayor of the town, why at this time, there was no strength at all? ”
"Why do you care about everything? What does it have to do with you? Suddenly, the grandmother on the side shouted loudly, now if it weren't for the people in the military camp here, she would have wanted to go up and fight Tong Wu.
"Are you really a dog and a mouse meddling in your own affairs, and you can't take care of yourself, and you still take care of other people's affairs? Is this really a backstage? ”
"Mother, you just have one less sentence!" Sun Da is about to cry, why does she still offend people, and if she offends people again, he doesn't know how to clean him up when he goes to the barracks?
"Dead mother-in-law, you shut up for me...... Sun Lichang rushed up all of a sudden, knocking Sun Pozi to the ground, "You still don't think it's big enough, do you, dare to mess up, I will beat you to death......"
For so many years, Old Man Sun never dared to argue with his grandmother, but now he is in a hurry, because this matter is very big, he fills his own pockets, dismisses officials, compensates the people, and sends border guards to serve as slaves.
Now, after the compensation, it was quiet.
Now things haven't reached that point, if this dead woman is in chaos, it can't be guaranteed.
Tong Wu came to Grandma Sun, looked at her who fell to the ground, and said softly, "You are so much, it's not to make your life better, because you embezzled the funeral expenses of the deceased?"
If it was before, maybe I wouldn't have been able to take care of it, but now I have to take care of it, and I'm also in charge of nosy, what's the matter? ”
Indeed, if this matter had been placed in the past when Tong Wu was still an ordinary Rao, she really didn't care about it, but now she can be sure that she is in charge of this matter.
She is the princess and the wife of the third prince, if she doesn't care about the uneven things, she won't be poked in the back by others when it spreads out.
Bi Chen stood beside Tong Wu and looked at her, without words.
She had heard that the princess used to be a nosy woman, and when she heard that when she was in Linyue Prefecture, Nanzhou, she had opened grain and suppressed disasters many times, and when there were no schools in other places, she established a school in her own village, as well as a women's college, repaired bridges and paved roads, and did a lot of good things.
And now, she's still like this, what's wrong with meddling? It is all about what is beneficial to the people, and the more people in the world, the more benefits there will be.
Bi Chen looked at Tong Wu and laughed, looking at Tong Wu's eyes full of admiration.
If there is such a heroine in this country in the future, it will definitely be a blessing for the people of the whole country.
"What do you mean, you embezzled my brother's funeral expenses, and pretended to lend me money, let me bury my brother, and then let me owe you money?" Zhang Ruomei reacted, rushed up, and grabbed her grandmother.
When several villagers heard this, they also rushed up, "What about my son's burial expenses?" If you embezzle this kind of money, won't you be unable to sleep at night? People are doing it, they are watching, aren't you afraid of retribution? ”
"The people of the Sun family can't die well, you bastards, you don't let go of the money, you are too much."
"Give us my brother's funeral expenses, my mother was blind to crying for my brother, but you are still embezzling my brother's money, are you human!"
Everyone was excited, rushed up, grabbed the people of the Sun family and shook back and forth, and some people even moved their hands, really wanting to beat them to death.
This person, when it doesn't matter about interests, is to watch the excitement, whether it is yesterday or today, these villagers in Yiyi Village belong to the people who stand on the edge and watch what happens inside.
And at this time, this matter is related to their own interests, and they all rushed up one by one, as if the other party had killed their whole family.
Bi Chen pursed her lips, for these people, it really made her speechless.
And Ma Qiang saw this scene, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop it, if there was a fatality, I was afraid that he, the mayor of the town, would not want to be it.
"Everyone, spare me, spare me, I'll give you back the money......" Sun Pozi shouted, if she didn't beg for mercy, she would be picked up by the people.
At this time, Bi Chen was the first to see it, because everyone else was busy beating their family, she rushed up first and snatched the gold bracelet.
Tong Wu couldn't help but laugh in her heart, this Bichen is really a money fan, everything related to money, she can see it.
"Don't worry, the Sun family has already compensated for the funeral expenses, a family of three taels of silver, a total of five families in Yiyang Village did not get this money, this bracelet will be exchanged for silver taels in the town, and compensate everyone!" Bi Chen shouted loudly.
