Liu Qiucui's face, which was already blue and white for a while, suddenly added a little more panic.

In such cold weather, if there is no place to stay, it can freeze to death even overnight. If she had been kicked out of the village overnight, she wouldn't have survived tonight!

"Please, don't drive me away, don't drive me away." She was still restrained by Kong Gaoming and couldn't move, and at this time she began to struggle with all her strength because of her desire to survive.

Kong Gaoming had been silent like an iron tower, but he didn't know where Liu Qiucui moved, but he suddenly heard him gasp.

The sound was not loud, and he might not be able to hear it if he was far away, and he didn't even let go of the hand that was controlling Liu Qiucui, but Liu Qiucui heard the voice very clearly, and he was sure that he heard it correctly.

I don't know if it's a strong desire to survive or something else, Liu Qiucui feels that her brain is unprecedentedly clear at this time.

"Wait!"

The onlookers didn't want to listen to her, and they all wanted to throw Liu Qiucui out.

The old village chief, as the head of a village, couldn't do it so obviously, but he still glanced at her, and asked nonchalantly: "That woman, what else do you have to argue?" ”

"I didn't lie, I really didn't lie, Sheng Qingqing really wanted to kill me before. If Gao Ming hadn't blocked me, I would have died! ”

Liu Qiucui hurriedly poured out all the words in her mouth, and said that she was going to move forward so that Kong Gaoming could be brought to everyone.

Kong Gaoming didn't know what to think, and stood motionless.

But everyone's eyes have been printed with Liu Qiucui's words. They didn't deliberately want to see it, but they looked at it completely subconsciously.

Under the gaze of many eyes, the villagers found that Kong Gaoming's hands were indeed bandaged. But the bandage was very sloppy, and you could faintly see bright red blood oozing out.

Apparently a fresh wound.

"This ......"

was a little hesitant for a while, after all, Liu Qiucui said such an oath, even if everyone didn't believe her, they couldn't help but be a little skeptical.

Could it be that this wound was really cut by Sheng Qingqing with a knife? Otherwise it's too much of a coincidence.

But everyone didn't want to believe Liu Qiucui, Sheng Zhizhi and Sheng Siming were two children, and it could be proved that this wound was not Sheng Qingqing's hand, so there was only one person......

The old village chief knew very well what everyone was thinking, and stood up at this time and asked, "This strong man, the injury on your hand was caused by the young girl?" ”

Sheng Qingqing couldn't help but grit her teeth when she heard this, and her heart also lifted. But she couldn't stop it, just like Liu Qiucui couldn't stop her from taking evidence before, because there were too many people staring around.

The big deal was exposed, and he was scolded left and right, but Liu Qiucui was definitely going to be kicked out!

Sheng Qingqing gritted her teeth and listened silently to Kong Gaoming's next words.

"It wasn't made by Miss Qing." Kong Gaoming's words were amazing.

He didn't look at Sheng Qingqing, who looked up in surprise, and Liu Qiucui, who went crazy after hearing this, and continued to talk on his own.

"It's just that I was careless, we wanted to clean up the kitchen before, but when we received the kitchen knife, I missed it."

This reason is also in the past, after all, people always have a time when they are not careful.

Everyone sighed a few words, and some people laughed and said: "It must be the knife handed by Zhizhi's girl, this girl is always frizzy, and the girl is so steady, but it won't be like this." ”

Sheng Zhizhi was also silent, making a shy gesture on the side, but in the eyes of others, it was clear that he had acquiesced.

So there is nothing more to say, the only evidence that can prove Liu Qiucui's innocence has been denied by Kong Gaoming, so Liu Qiucui's viciousness is already an irrefutable fact.

If you kick her out, she will be brought up again.

But this time Liu Qiucui stopped struggling, she seemed to have given up, she sat on the ground, her eyes were blank and looked around, occasionally stopped, but most of them stayed on Kong Gaoming, as if she didn't believe that she was betrayed like this.

"Ahem......"

Sheng Qingqing was silent, but suddenly heard the old village chief's cough, she subconsciously looked up, but saw that the old village chief was giving her a look.

That gaze stayed on Liu Qiucui for a moment, and then turned to the other villagers.

Sheng Qingqing was blessed to the heart, and suddenly stood up when the crowd was angry, "Thank you uncles and sisters-in-law for upholding justice, but she is my sister-in-law, and she can't be too unrighteous if she is unkind." ”

Someone shouted, "Girl, this woman is so vicious, she can't stay in the village." ”

"Yes, I know. Our village is full of benevolent people, and it is really not suitable for my aunt to stay here. But ......" Sheng Qingqing paused for a moment before continuing: "Although she has a vicious heart, she is not guilty to death. It's freezing on this day, and if you drive her out tonight, I'm afraid she won't survive tonight. Let her stay in the village for one night first, and let her go tomorrow. ”

Just one night is nothing.

The people in the village are not vicious people, and they feel justified when they hear what Sheng Qingqing said. They can't do it even if they let a person freeze to death.

"Then I'm going to let her go early tomorrow morning!"

"Hey, the girl is still kind."

"When their father was still there, he was a well-known and honest person in ten miles and eight towns, and their mother was also a good person. Qing Yatou and Zhi Yatou, Siming's child, are naturally kind-hearted people. ”

The surrounding villagers whispered.

Sheng Qingqing listened quietly, and her face did not show the slightest hint of joy at being praised.

Don't look at the fact that everyone is praising her kindness now, if she hadn't said before that she would keep Liu Qiucui for one night, let Liu Qiucui freeze to death. Maybe in a short period of time, the villagers will think that a vicious person like Liu Qiucui died well, but after a long time, these people are likely to think that she is a vicious person.

That's how the human heart changes.

The old village chief over there had already begun to let people disperse, and this commotion had taken a lot of time unconsciously, and everyone felt that the matter had been resolved, so they all scattered.

Only a few people were left standing in place.

"Grandpa the village chief, shall I send you back?" Sheng Qingqing said respectfully.

There is no danger in the village, but the old village chief is old, and it is easy to fall if he is not careful. It's a big deal that the old man fell.

"Good boy......" The old village chief did not refuse, and patted her hand lovingly.

Sheng Qingqing smiled, and then turned back to signal Sheng Zhizhi and Sheng Siming, "You bring your aunt and uncle back first, and my sister will come back later." ”

Then he slowly walked into the night with the old village chief.

The reason why the old village chief agreed to let Sheng Qingqing send him back was obviously not that he was worried that he would be injured, otherwise so many villagers just now, looking for any person, would be better than Sheng Qingqing, a little girl.

The reason why he did this was because he had something to say to Sheng Qingqing.

"Ahem...... Girl......"

Sheng Qingqing half-lowered her head and asked respectfully: "Grandpa, village chief, you say." ”

"I watched your brothers and sisters grow up, and I didn't expect you to be old enough to stand up for the door."

Sheng Qingqing didn't speak, but lowered her head and listened.

"Although you handled this matter beautifully today, there are still some details that have not been done well, do you know?"

"Yes."

Of course, it's about the knife, the old village chief is so old, he hasn't seen anything. Kong Gaoming can fool other villagers, but he can't fool him. The depth of the wound was not caused by the wrong hand.

Sheng Qingqing responded lowly. She used to be hot-blooded, and now she is afraid when she thinks about it. Is this a slashing person or secondly, can she bear the result after slashing and killing, Sheng Qingqing's brain was blank at that time, and she didn't expect it at all.

And she did such a thing in front of a pair of younger siblings, which is really undeserved.

The old village chief was very relieved to see that she had a good attitude of admitting her mistakes, "People are not saints and sages, you are still just a child, you don't have to blame yourself too much, you must think twice before doing things in the future." ”

"What you're taught."

These words are the faint teaching and expectation of the elders, and Sheng Qingqing is naturally not the one who doesn't know what to do.

After that, he said some words, mostly the old village chief was teaching Sheng Qingqing to behave in the end, and sometimes Sheng Qingqing also interjected a sentence or two, asking how this farm work should be done and what the process was.

She had made up her mind to plant the family's fields, but now the difference is experience and people who can do farm work.

"You can't learn this farm work just by listening." The old village chief smiled kindly, as if he was looking at an ignorant junior, and said softly: "It's not yet the beginning of spring, and when it's almost spring, you can go to the fields with your uncle in the village to have a look." ”

Sheng Qingqing responded.

The two of them talked and soon arrived at the old village chief's house. In the evening, the old village chief's family was very worried, and they stood outside the door early in anticipation.

At this time, when he saw the figure of the old village chief, he hurriedly came up to help.

"I really want to send the old man back."

Sheng Qingqing smiled shyly, "The village chief's grandfather treats me like a granddaughter, and the younger generation should do this." ”

refused their kind words inviting her in to sit down, and Sheng Qingqing turned around and left.

She still has a lot of things to do at home.

There was no lantern in his hand, and he relied on the silver moon above his head all the way, so he could only walk back one foot deep and one foot shallow. Fortunately, Sheng Qingqing did not have night blindness, so although there were some stumbles, she walked steadily along the way.

From the outside, Sheng's house was pitch black, as if there was no one in the house. But this is only because the family is poor and has no money to buy candles to light them.

Sheng Qingqing pushed open the courtyard door and walked inside.

"Sister, you're back!"

Sheng Zhizhi has good eyesight, and when she saw her from afar, she shouted.

"Be quiet, big night." Sheng Qingqing stopped her softly, and couldn't help but ask again: "Why are you here with Siming, it's too cold outside, go and light the fire." ”
