Chapter 230: Retribution
Many people have seen this episode, and some people are wondering, should they tell the truth? After saying that, you will get more money than you have spent before, and many people who are excited to look at the position of the two women who are still entangled, to be honest, they may only get a little more money, but if the lion opens his mouth, he will get a lot of money.
In an instant, they decided what they were going to do.
"Next." Saying these three words, Lin Mujie felt that she was a lot tired, she looked at the team with no end in sight, where did it go, she felt so tired, what should she do with the rest?
"I spent a hundred taels." A trembling voice came.
A hundred taels? She climbed here by herself carrying a hundred taels, and handed over the one hundred taels to the previous matchmaker? Who would believe this, Lin Mujie, who lowered her head and looked at the red rope bracelet on the table, smiled, it seems that these people really treat her as a soft persimmon, and they can pinch her as much as they want.
Shui Lan is really, it's been so long, things haven't been done yet, if his speed was a little faster, there wouldn't be those twenty taels or one hundred taels.
She sighed and sighed, but she had to deal with all the bad things in front of her.
She looked up, half-squinted at the person in front of her, and found that this was an elderly grandmother, standing tremblingly with a cane in her hand, and her wrinkled face was a little serious and a little domineering.
At this age, she can still climb here, it seems that this grandmother's physical fitness should be good, but unfortunately, she is doing this kind of thing.
She held on to her spirit and tried hard to draw a smile: "Grandma, one hundred taels can be given to you, but you have to swear to take out the red rope bracelet." ”
Hearing that she wanted a red rope bracelet, the grandmother's crutch knocked the blue brick floor, and said unceremoniously: "That rope was accidentally lost by me." ”
Does she mean she can't get the red string bracelet? The people in front of him who opened their mouths could still get physical evidence, but this old man was good, relying on his age, he didn't even want to take out the bracelet, and he wanted her to take out a hundred taels for her, which made people really ...... Speechless.
"The bracelet is lost, it's not a valuable item anyway, but you have to swear ......"
"I know, I know, it's verbose." The old grandmother impatiently leaned on crutches, closed her eyes and swore to the sky: "I swear, if I lie, there will be five thunderstorms in the sky." ”
After speaking, ignoring the eyes of the people around her, the old woman walked to the box containing the silver with a cane, took out a cloth bag from her arms, and put the silver into the bag one by one.
Her behavior like this made the people around her red-eyed, and some people felt that they should not speak falsely, otherwise they would be punished by God, but at this time, under the stimulation of silver, they have forgotten what God's curse is, and their heads have been occupied by white flowers and silver at this time.
Lin Mujie didn't stop the old man, she quietly watched her pretend, a hundred taels of silver, even if she wanted a sack to resist, it was difficult, not to mention this woman in her seventies and eighties, she didn't expect that people had already prepared, and after pretending for a while, she shouted to the crowd below: "You two rabbit cubs, do you want to exhaust me?" Why don't you come over and help. ”
There was a commotion in the crowd, and then two fat-headed and big-eared men walked over to Lin Mujie with a greasy smile on their faces, and the one who took the lead smiled at her: "I'm sorry, my grandma is old and can't walk, and we as grandsons can't bear to see her work so hard, so come over to help her, I guess you don't mind." ”
She minds, she minds, but what can she do? Didn't you see that people came prepared? If she said no, maybe someone would lie down in front of her.
She didn't want to talk anymore, so let them go, for they would have to give her the money later.
Seeing these three people using sacks of silver, the eyes of the people queuing below were straight, they were still young, they didn't know how to take the sack to put silver, and they thought that they could get back the silver they had spent, and when it was time for them, they would say that they would take a little more, otherwise they would suffer the loss.
"Isn't this the Yin family in the west of the village?" When the three men were loading the silver, someone recognized the three "robbers".
People who don't know ask about their deeds, and those who know know everything.
"Their family is a ruffian, very shameless, often do some things to steal chickens and dogs, after the gang, they will move the old guy out, stage a cry, two troubles and three hangings, and the people who suffer losses will not dare to be too presumptuous, after all, the old guy is also old, if something really happens, when he goes to the government, he will become unreasonable."
"Aren't they robbing us of our money now?" Someone couldn't stand it anymore and said it out loud.
The people in line looked at the Yin family one after another, some disdainful, some despised and some envious, the old grandmother saw it, pointed her cane at them, and said viciously: "Who robbed you of your silver, I said that I spent a hundred taels and spent a hundred taels, didn't I see this little girl and don't care about us, it's your turn to take care of it." ”
"That's it, besides, she also said that day, if the money is not enough, she will come out, so you don't care about us, we won't care about you, everyone will take their own money, and everything will be fine." After the fat-headed and big-eared man said this, he smiled at Lin Mujie and disgusted her.
The loss in her heart has dropped another level, these people really regard her as a wronged person, she smiled sadly, didn't she say that the ancients all valued love and righteousness? Didn't you say that the ancients valued oaths? Why are the people she sees who don't take these things seriously?
Lin Mujie's silence undoubtedly fueled the arrogance of some people, and some people who didn't have other thoughts couldn't help but be moved by the temptation of the huge interest in front of them.
The Yin family pretended to be happy, just when they were about to leave with a bag full of silver, Lang Lang Qiankun, suddenly a thunder sounded, people looked up one after another, and found that there was still a blue sky and white clouds overhead, and there was no shadow of dark clouds at all, so what was the thunder just now......
"You must have heard it wrong, let's not scare ourselves, let's go." The old grandmother is worthy of being a well-informed person, and when she saw that the situation was wrong, she wanted to slip away quickly.
When her two grandsons heard this, they thought it made sense, and just as they raised their feet to leave, another thunder fell, followed by a second thunder, and a third thunder.
At this moment, everyone heard the rumbling sound, and they all turned their eyes to the three ancestors and grandchildren not far away.
Grandma Yin, who has always been calm, is not calm at this time, she slowly raised her head, carefully looked at the blue sky above her head, and found that it was not unusual, she dared to breathe a sigh of relief, and yelled at the crowd watching the show: "What do you see, haven't you heard thunder?" As for the fuss? ”
"I've heard thunder, but it's the first time I've heard this loud thunder." Liu Yulan pulled Wu Chunhua's hair, looking at the old man Yin, who was pale and seemed to fall down as soon as the wind blew, and said disdainfully.
"I haven't seen it, won't I show it to you now? It's really rare and weird. ”
As soon as these words fell, another sound sounded, but this time it was not thunder, but the cries for help.
People looked in the direction where the voice came, and they didn't recognize who the person calling for help was for a while, until he staggered all the way to Lin Mujie and put the ten taels of silver in his hand in front of her eyes, and people remembered that he was not an old man who took ten taels of silver and left before? Why is it back now, still with a blue nose and swollen face, and the clothes on his body are torn a lot.
Without waiting for Lin Mujie to ask, the old man trembled and told the whole process.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have lied, I have committed a great crime, I will return the silver to you now, I hope God will not punish me again, don't punish me again." As he spoke, he knelt down and prayed.
The people behind him saw it, with different expressions, especially the three ancestors and grandchildren who took a hundred taels, and they couldn't leave at this time, and they didn't go.
Kneeling on the ground and praying for a while, seeing that the wind was calm, the old man raised his head and looked around, and then looked up at the sky, and then immediately stood up, staggered down the mountain, he was afraid, he was really afraid, he almost lost his life because of these ten taels of silver, he would never dare to lie casually in the future.
Lin Mujie watched the man leave, and until she couldn't see him, she withdrew her gaze and said to the next lady: "Excuse me, how much do you want?" ”
Yes, she didn't ask her how much she spent on the red string bracelet, and if she asked, it was better to ask her directly how much money she wanted.
The eldest lady stretched out a finger, and she was hesitant, but she couldn't tell how much it was.
Lin Mujie hooked her lips and asked, "One hundred taels?" ”
The eldest lady waved her hand again and again: "No, no, no." ”
"Ten taels?"
Still waving his hand, still shaking his head: "It's a tael of silver." ”
"A tael of silver? Okay, you can take this. She took out a tael of the ten taels of silver that the man had returned just now and her.
Auntie is afraid, wasn't this silver punished by God just now? Will she take it now like the man?
"Don't worry, as long as you don't do anything wrong, you'll be fine."
"Then before I leave, make another vow?" The eldest lady hesitated.
"No, you don't." She waved her hand at her, and after what had just happened, she felt that it was unlikely that she was lying.
After the eldest lady heard this, she left happily, she knew that this meant that Lin Mujie believed in her, so she would say to her like this, didn't she swear by the old woman before she saw it.
Seeing this one leave peacefully, the three ancestors and grandchildren of the Yin family tried to take a step, and found that the blue sky and white clouds, without the previous thunder, they tried to walk forward for a distance, but there was still nothing, they turned around and smiled at Lin Mujie and others.
At this moment, a thunderclap fell only a meter away from her, frightening the old man of the Yin family, who was still proud just now, and collapsed on the ground.
