Chapter 41: Who do you look down on?
The villagers of Liujin Village were infected by this kind of grief and indignation to the extreme.
Many people turned their backs and silently wiped away a handful of tears.
Qiao Huaping never expected that he would hook up such an old story.
It's hard to say if it's a coincidence.
However, there is a human life involved in it.
Now, with Ah Jin's mother's words, there is no need for her to call Mei Qinghuang up, so that the villagers can intuitively feel how cruel Gao is to attack such a child.
The crowd was excited, and the Cao family was a little shrunken, not daring to say anything.
The village chief interrogated Gao in public very seriously.
But in the end, it was an old thing, there was no evidence, and Gao flatly denied it, saying that he would not let go of anything, and in the end, it was over.
- said so, but Ah Jin's mother looked at Gao's eyes, obviously convinced that Gao did this.
"Village chief, a vicious person like the Gao clan can't stay in our village anymore!" Ah Jin's mother suddenly opened her mouth in a hoarse voice.
As soon as these words came out, many villagers echoed them.
Escaping from the famine is already tired enough, and if it is at this time, it will be too painful to be distracted to watch out if the Gao family will harm his children.
The village chief originally meant this.
But the Gao family is the daughter-in-law of the Cao family, and the Cao family is not much, but with the in-laws on the top of the Gao family, the family of the little brother-in-law below, and the unmarried sister-in-law, there are about ten people.
The village chief looked at the Cao family.
Old man Cao's face twitched.
Seriously, he lived to be in his forties, and today is the most humiliating day!
He wiped his face, didn't even look at his eldest son, and his voice was hoarse: "Our Cao family has such a poisonous woman, and it is also a misfortune for the family." If the village chief expels the Gao family, I have no opinion, and I can directly make the decision for my son and leave the Gao family. It's just ......"
He glanced at his eldest grandson Cao Hongchang, who had always had a gloomy face, gritted his teeth, and said in a dumb voice, "Village chief, we are fleeing the famine right now, if we take the Gao family off and expel them from the village, it will be tantamount to letting the Gao family die!" ”
The village chief was silent.
Indeed, everyone is not as ruthless as Gao's, and no one wants to take on a human life for no reason.
The villagers were also silent.
Only Ah Jin's mother sneered there: "Gao's life is life, isn't my Ah Jin's life life?" ”
The village chief sighed: "But we don't have any evidence to prove that Ah Jin's death is related to the Gao family." Even if the government handles the case, it also pays attention to one evidence, right? Daughter-in-law Yanbai, I know you are bitter in your heart, but we also have to pay attention to a piece of evidence in this matter. ”
Ah Jin gritted her teeth and fell silent.
The bonfire burned vigorously, but the look on Ah Jin's mother's face was as cold as ice.
Finally, after discussion, the village came up with a temporary plan.
Let the Gao family follow the villagers first, and the Cao family will be responsible for guarding it. If something happens to the Gao family again, the Gao family and the Cao family will be expelled from the village to escape the famine-when they reach the next village or town, where there are people, let the Gao family stay and fend for themselves.
There is no way to do this, and even Ah Jin's mother didn't say anything.
But the Zhou family quit.
Zhou Xu grabbed Zhou Xiaoqing's arm and walked out of the crowd watching the excitement from behind.
She pulled her throat and said, "This is not over yet." I said the Cao family, when the Gao family did bad things before, she was still the daughter-in-law of your Cao family. You see, look, sting my granddaughter like this, just think about it? ”
Although Zhou Xu is old, she is an adult in the end, and her strength is much greater than that of a child. She dragged Zhou Xiaoqing's arm and pulled the child's thin body for a long time.
Song Yuelan was so distressed that she wanted to step forward to stop her mother-in-law, but Zhou Xu was tougher, glared at her, and quickly whispered to the other two daughters-in-law: "Hold her down, I'll take this dead girl to do business!" ”
The daughters-in-law in the other two rooms had light in their eyes, and they said "Sister-in-law, don't worry", but they directly supported Song Yuelan one by one.
Zhou Xiaoqing could only be dragged by Zhou Xu to the middle of the crowd.
Zhou Xu pushed Zhou Xiaoqing and asked her to stand on the side of the bonfire.
Although Qiao Huaping applied the antidote holy product cream alkali flower to her, the swollen bag on her face has not completely subsided, and the small face is a little scary.
Zhou Xu pulled his throat: "Let's see, what kind of stinging did my girl look like?!" I don't want to say anything else, the child has suffered such a big crime, how can the Cao family have something to do, let me make up for my granddaughter? ”
The Cao family was pointed at by the villagers, and they couldn't stand it. Old man Cao couldn't help but wipe his face again, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I still have some goose eggs at home, I'll take a few to make up for the child when I go back." ”
Zhou Xu's "oops": "That's it?" She grabbed Zhou Xiaoqing's arm, "Look at how many times your good daughter-in-law has been stung on my granddaughter!" If it weren't for the fact that my Zhou family was a blessed land, this dead girl would almost not be able to be saved, you know?! ”
Zhou Xiaoqing stood by the bonfire a little crampedly, bowing his head, listening to Zhou Xu's treating her as a bargaining chip, bargaining with others.
In the end, the Cao family accompanied ten goose eggs to end the matter.
Zhou Xu's eyebrows smiled, and he pushed Zhou Xiaoqing: "This dead girl is in charge of something." ”
Zhou Xiaoqing was about to cry.
Song Yuelan finally broke free from the two concubines at this time, rushed over, hugged Zhou Xiaoqing in her arms, and patted her back gently: "Okay, okay, Xiaoqing, it's okay, we're okay." ”
Zhou Xiaoqing's head was buried in Song Yuelan's arms, pumping and pumping.
The village chief glanced at the old man Cao, who was pale, and reminded: "...... Zhou Xiaoqing is not the only one who was stung, you remember to send some to the Mei family. ”
Old man Cao's feet were weak, but he still gritted his teeth in response.
Qiao Huaping saw that there was nothing wrong, so he went to the neighborhood to find a few cubs of his own.
As a result, Mei Qinghuang's eyes were a little red, and he turned his head away, ignoring Qiao Huaping at all.
Qiao Huaping was puzzled: "What happened before?" ”
It's Mei Qingyu, a stupid brother who understands his own tendons.
He said slowly: "You told the third brother before, when you called him, let him go up...... Do you also want to borrow the third brother's injury to blackmail the Cao family? ”
Although the compensation of the Cao family is also what their victims deserve, the scene of Zhou Xiaoqing being treated as a bargaining chip by Zhou Xu's and being used by Zhou Xu's to bargain with Old Man Cao still makes them feel uncomfortable.
It's like...... Zhou Xiaoqing is like an object.
"Who do you look down on?" Qiao Huaping frowned and flatly denied it, "If I want to knock the Cao family on a deal, do I still need your brother to go out?" ”
