Chapter 46: Kicking Someone to Death
The next day, Jiang Mian was woken up by a loud noise.
She rolled over and covered her head with the covers, trying to block out the sound outside.
"Tsk!"
Jiang Mian sat up suddenly.
Who's doing it again?!
Jiang Mian put on his clothes and washed briefly before leaving the room.
As soon as she opened the door, she was stunned.
The roses in the yard are blooming red, and the ambiguous warm fragrance fills every corner of the yard.
The usually quiet bull was very excited, and his hooves were anxiously stepping on the ground, if it hadn't been for Sambo pulling the bull rope, he was afraid that he would have rushed out of the cowshed and trampled the roses to pieces.
Sambo pulled the cow rope with one hand, hung a bandage in his right hand, and a fleshy little face without any expression. The moment he saw Jiang Mian come out, his eyes lit up, and he shouted glutinously: "Mother, you're awake!" β
Jiang Mian's anger when he got up was dissipated a lot by this "mother" shout.
"Well, wake up, what are you doing?"
The big treasure, the second treasure, the fourth treasure and Yu Changhuan who were blocking the door turned around.
Jiang Mian felt bad when she saw their expressions, and she looked around:
"What about Gu Xiao?"
Dabao moved his mouth and said, "Dad...... Daddy, he's out. β
"Out? What are you doing? β
No one answered her, and one after another bowed their heads.
"Why was it so noisy just now?" Jiang Mian changed the subject.
Yu Changhuan coughed lightly, "Someone came to find fault just now, cousin, so I kicked them out." β
Jiang Mian understood, but was a little puzzled. It's done very well, why are these cubs so good-hearted?
She frowned, "You guys, something to hide from me?" β
Everyone bowed their heads again.
"Erbao, you say."
Erbao was named and looked up in amazement.
Why do you call him? Is it bad to call your eldest brother or cousin?
Jiang Mian saw Erbao's doubts and smiled brightly: "Erbao, you tell the best story!" Don't you want to tell stories to your mother? β
Dabao and Yu Changhuan saw Jiang Mian's smile, and their backs were cold.
But Erbao didn't feel it, and when he saw Jiang Mian's smile, he couldn't help but run to her, hugging her thighs and rubbing them.
"Erbao also thinks that he is super good at telling stories!"
"Mother, let me tell you, just now a group of people came over and shouted something 'return the silver, return the silver', the eldest brother and the cousin wanted to ask what was going on, but they didn't answer, and kicked the cousin!"
Jiang Mian glanced at Yu Changhuan when he heard this, "Where did you kick you?" Come and show me. β
Yu Changhuan didn't expect Jiang Mian to ask himself, he covered his stomach: "I'm fine, it's just a skin injury." β
Jiang Mian saw that Yu Changhuan was indeed fine, so he didn't care about him anymore.
"And then?"
Erbao: "My cousin was kicked on the flowers planted by my father, and my father was very angry......" Speaking of this, Erbao shrunk his neck, "and kicked the person who kicked my cousin to death." β
Jiang Mian: !
"Kicked to death?"
Jiang Mian felt that his qi and blood were surging, and his brain was starved of oxygen.
Didn't you tell him that you couldn't make a fuss? This is not the end of the world, nor is it a barbaric age, and killing people is to pay for their lives!
Yu Changhuan hurriedly said: "It's not dead, it's not dead, it's just that I kicked people unconscious, I'm afraid it's ...... You have to lose a lot of money. β
He took a cursory look, at most, the person was going to lie in bed for a few months, but he didn't know if the other party would kill him, and then deduct "Gu Xiao" for murder.
Jiang Mian did not relax because of this, Yu Changhuan also had concerns, her face was serious, "Who is here, do you know?" β
Before the words fell, a group of people had already come over there.
"Hand over Gu Xiao, the murderer!"
When Jiang Mian heard this shout, his heart was half cold.
Murderer...... In other words, the other party really killed the person.
"Dabao, bring your younger siblings into the house."
Sanbao shook the cow rope, "Mother, I don't want to go in, I want to watch the big cow." β
Dabao: "Sanbao is good, bring the big cow to the back of the house, and you can also watch the big cow." β
Sambo: "I don't want it, I'm going to be here!" "If those bad guys want to beat their mothers, she'll do it, she'll enlarge the cow! And pick up their little fists so that they can't see their way clearly!
Dabao couldn't persuade the three treasures, so he could only carry the second and fourth treasures to the cowshed and stay with the three treasures.
And Yu Changhuan silently walked to Jiang Mian's side.
Jiang Mian glanced down at him and didn't say anything.
The gang quickly blocked in front of the Gu family's small courtyard.
Jiang Mian glanced at their clothes and knew in his heart that they were from the Liu family. Combined with Erbao's "return the money", Jiang Mian guessed a rough idea.
The people of the Liu family came to the door to ask her to return the ginseng money.
Tsk, it's so troublesome, I wouldn't have sold ginseng to them if I had known. Just sell it directly to Jishitang, and it is better to make two hundred taels less than to cause these troubles.
"Jiang's! Gu Xiao, hand him over and send this murderer to the official! "The leader is a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties, who is not decently fat.
"Why should I hand over Gu Xiao, what do I have to do to the yamen?"
The fat man raised his hand, and someone came out on a stretcher behind him. The stretcher was followed by women and children dressed in white linen.
"Woo, master, you died so miserably! You're dead, how can our orphans and widows live, woo woo......"
"Daddy, Daddy, wake up!"
"Woo, Daddy, Woo......"
Onlookers whispered.
"Isn't this from the Liu family? Why did you bring a dead man? It's really unlucky, it's really unlucky. β
"Didn't you hear? It was Gu Xiao who beat the person to death. β
"It was like something he could do. Gu Xiao has changed since his fever, his whole person has changed, he used to be silent, but he couldn't beat people, but now he has to beat anyone who doesn't like his eyes. β
"People like Gu Xiao should be in prison!"
"Prison food? This is the people of the Liu family who are killed! I'm sure I'm going to be dragged to my head! β
"It's terrible, there's a murderer in the village! Hurry up and call the village chief to get the family out! Otherwise, everyone won't be able to sleep at night! β
"Yes, if there is a father, there must be a son, and they may kill people too!"
"Go and call the village chief and the Gu family head to come over!"
β¦β¦
"This is our servant Liu Sheng, who was beaten to death by Gu Xiao, killing people pays for his life, do you want to hand him over?"
Jiang Mian snorted coldly, "Kill? Who can testify that Gu Xiao killed someone? β
The fat man sneered: "These are all people who came to your house with Liu Sheng just now, and they can all testify!" β
Jiang Mian pointed at Yu Changhuan, and then pointed to a few cubs in the cowshed, "These are all people who witnessed the whole process, and they can also testify that Gu Xiao did not kill anyone!" β
"Nonsense, these are all children of your family, of course they will be towards your family!" The fat man's eyes narrowed, and the small eyes directly became a slit.
"Then don't you also mess around, these are all slaves of your family, don't you also face the people of your family? It's naΓ―ve to want to charge you with murder just because of your empty mouth and white teeth. β
"You!" The fat man didn't expect Jiang Mian to be so difficult, if it was an ordinary woman's family, she was already so scared that she couldn't speak when she saw this battle, where would she choke with him?
"I can testify! Gu Xiao kicked people away, several meters! β
Jiang Mian looked at the person who spoke, the person was hidden in the crowd, and Jiang Mian still saw it at a glance. It is Jiang Zong, the fourth brother of the original owner.
"Jiang Mian, what do you see?" Jiang Zong was stared at by Jiang Mian, and he was not afraid, it was originally "Gu Xiao" who kicked someone, he just told the truth.
The fat man blocked Jiang Mian's view of Jiang Zong.
"It's not just that we're talking about witnesses! Besides, we still have a trick to prove that Gu Xiao kicked people to death! β
As soon as the words fell, a man dressed in disguise stepped forward.
"Liu Sheng's liver ruptured and hemorrhaged to death, and the man who kicked him was very strong."
