In this era of widespread belief in karma, anyone who can make such an oath will believe that he has a clear conscience.

If you know that you have done something, and you still swear such a poisonous oath, it can only mean that this person is either heartless or a hero.

Is Wu Qingxi a hero?

No.

Therefore, after a moment of silence, the discussion of the crowd burst out.

"It's definitely right, if you really stole his food, can you swear like this?"

"It must be the Xie family who wants to blackmail the Wu family and take the opportunity to take revenge!"

"I originally thought that the Xie family was not like this, it seems that everyone says that they are rich and unkind, and it is true......"

"He Xie family used to just pretend to be honest, and when he saw the money, who cared about so much......"

……

Xie Qingshan's swarthy face turned purple, his legs trembled in place, and he couldn't speak when he opened and closed his mouth.

Xie Pingtian and Xie Ping'an weakly defended loudly to the people around them, jumping to their feet and angrily scolding Wu Qingxi for being shameless.

Xie Wang's eyes were red, if it weren't for Hui Niang's desperate pulling, she would have pounced on it and grabbed Wu Qingxi's face.

The chief and the elder also looked at each other, looked at the Xie family, and glanced at the soap next to him a few times, their eyes full of suspicion.

Ying Yiyuan Sun and the two of them saw this kind of scene, where was they not in a hurry? The Xie family is treating guests and paying money, that is, they are invited to settle the matter, if because of their words, it makes things worse, where will their faces go? Who will pay them to do things in the future?

You must know that these ordinary servants only have ten taels of food and silver every year, and some people have broken their scalps to do this business with such a small amount of silver, so naturally in addition to the food and silver, there are also "car fares", "donkey fees", "shoes and socks fees" and "food and tea money" when outsiders ask them to do things. And this money is the bulk of maintaining their nourishing lives, and the credibility of their affairs is related to the source of their "business" in the future.

Yes, the two of them pressed their hands to their waists, pulled out the waist knife "click-", and scolded loudly: "Shut up for me!" Officials handle cases, and idle people are quiet! ”

The crisp sound of this cold weapon was born with a cold coldness, which was more effective than anything else, and the buzzing crowd around gradually quieted down, all looking at the two soaps, but there was still a look of disbelief in their eyes.

Just as the crowd was silent when Ying Yiyuan Sun and the two were scolded, a delicate but cold voice suddenly sounded:

"Wu Qingxi, you dare to swear that you didn't steal my family's vegetables, so you dare to swear that you didn't pick up my family's vegetable shed? Do you dare to swear that you didn't steal the iron kettle from my vegetable shed? ”

The sound was like a yellow warbler coming out of the valley, echoing in everyone's ears.

Everyone looked at the source of the voice, but it was Xie Xuan, the granddaughter of the Xie family who had been raised in her grandmother's house since she was a child, and Xie Xuan, a little girl who was only six or seven years old in the Manchurian family.

I saw that the little girl was wearing a green and white slanted Songjiang cloth shirt, eight Hunan skirts of tender lotus-colored cotton, combed with double buns, a solemn face, standing in the center of the opposition between the Wu family and the Xie family, her eyes narrowed slightly, staring at Wu Qingxi for a moment, and slowly but clearly asked again:

"Do you dare to swear?"

I saw Wu Qingxi looking uneasy, and scolded loudly: "Where did the little girl come from, the milk smell has not dried, and she is also here to take care of the affairs between adults!" ”

Xie Qingshan walked to the front with a puffed face, stood beside Xie Xuan, and said loudly to Wu Qingxi: "Xuanxuan is also my Xie family, what she said is what I said!" I'll ask you, do you dare to swear that you didn't pick up my vegetable shed? Didn't steal my iron kettle? You have to dare to swear that you don't, otherwise you won't be able to die a good death, and I will act as if this didn't happen today! ”

Seeing that the situation had changed again, the surrounding crowd looked at the Xie family and Wu Qingxi, and they were quiet for a while.

Wu Qingxi listened to Xie Qingshan's words, the expression on his face changed, his face turned blue for a while, and his face turned pale for a while, and finally he was ruthless in his eyes, raised his hand, gritted his teeth and said:

"I, Wu Qingxi, swore that if I stole the Xie family's vegetables, picked up his vegetable shed, and stole his iron kettle, I would let me ...... Let me ......"

"Shut up!" With a scream, Wu Qingxihun's Wu Sun family stumbled out, covered her husband's mouth, and looked at her son Wu Feihu, who was standing in the middle of the Wu family, with uncontrollable panic on his face.

But then, she turned her head and shouted to the Xie family:

"Why do you want me to swear a poisonous oath? We don't send it! Your Xie family has a litter of old canggen old prostitutes, and the mongrels are little prostitutes......"

Seeing that Wu Sun interrupted his oath, Wu Qing seemed to be relieved, and let Wu Sun scold in front of him, but kept silent.

Seeing Wu Sun's coming out to sprinkle, Xie Wang's family, who had been holding back his anger for a long time, couldn't bear it, blocked Xie Xuan behind him, and opened his mouth to scold Wu Sun's family:

"Thief wild woman, your turtle husband doesn't dare to swear, you pour it out and show your eyes! The ** slave who can't get out of the turtle with pus and blood, and the two husbands and wives get together, but it's really a sand pear toad - a pair of pimple goods! Flies look for dog shit, shit shells eat maggots - the smell is similar! Today is the shrimp in the oil pot and the grasshopper in autumn - it won't be too long to jump......"

Seeing that Wu Sun's nonsense began to spill, Xie Xuan was relieved in his heart.

Wu Qingxi dared to make a disobedient oath to get rid of the charge, even disregarding his son's life, but his daughter-in-law Wu Sun did not dare. 、

Although even if he swore an oath, the Xie family had a backhand to clean him up, but he fell behind, and even if he taught him a lesson, the villagers were not convinced.

Wu Sun's coming out to mess around proves that they are weak-hearted, which is much easier.

Xie Qingshan didn't understand what the situation was at this time, and at the moment, regardless of the Wu Sun clan and the Xie Wang clan who were scolding each other, he shouted loudly to the surrounding villagers:

"Everyone saw it, his Wu family didn't dare to swear! This shows that even if it is not him who steals the vegetables, it is he who picks up my family's vegetable shed, and the four iron kettles used to warm my family's vegetable shed are found in his kitchen. ”

For a while, everyone started talking again.

There are still some relatives in the Wu family who are not convinced, Wu Qingxi's cousin Wu Qingshan said loudly: "This iron kettle style is all ordinary goods, you look around the people, who doesn't have one or two?" I can't find four at my cousin's house, so let's just say that Qingxi stole it! ”

"That's it! It is! Who doesn't have an iron kettle? Why do you think that it was my family who stole it, and framed people out of thin air...... "Wu Sun, who was scolding, still had time to listen to others, and when he heard Wu Qingshan's debate, his eyes lit up, and he said.

"Since you say so, then I'm going to have a fight with the big guy today!" Xie Qingshan's purple face recovered a little, but his face was still dark, he pulled over the elder and the elder surnamed Zhou, and called out to Ying Yiyuan Sun and the two soap subordinates:

"Lieutenant Chief, Uncle Zhou, Ying Dutou, Sun Dutou, you are all knowledgeable people, you might as well be a witness for us!"

After that, he took the four iron kettles on the ground as evidence, handed one to each of them, and asked, "Four, please see, what is the difference between this iron kettle and the iron kettle used by our ordinary people?" ”

The four looked at it carefully for a while, after all, they were making soap, and their observation was more detailed than others, Sun He hesitated: "I see, the belly of this iron kettle is bigger than that of ordinary iron kettle......

After he said this, the chief also found a difference: "The spout of this water is also smaller than that of an ordinary iron kettle......

"Yes!" Xie Qingshan's frowning brows relaxed slightly, he nodded and said: "This iron kettle was ordered by my family at the blacksmith's house in Hulu Town, the belly of the kettle is large to hold more water, and the small spout is to make the steam come out more slowly, so you don't need to store water all the time." If you don't believe it, just ask the blacksmith king of Hulu Town, he will definitely remember this! ”

The lieutenant chief and Zhou Qi looked at each other, speechless for a while.

Ying Yiyuansun and the two laughed: "This is not an unknown matter! Everyone has stolen goods, if this is in the county government, it will be directly beaten, where is there any need to quarrel with their Wu family! ”

After that, Sun He raised the iron kettle in his hand, said Xie Qingshan's words, and finally concluded: "According to the "Da Ming Law", if the stolen thing is worth more than 120 yuan, it will be hanged!" Confiscate the family property and compensate the owner at a discount! If the wife and daughter commit the crime of harboring, they will be exiled for thousands of miles! The evidence and material evidence in this case are all available, the thief, don't come out quickly, obediently go back to the county government with us to be punished! ”

As soon as these words came out, the crowd was in an uproar!
