Lin Baobao said that there was a way, but he didn't say anything specific, muttered a few words with Lin Wulang, and said to Village Chief Lin: "Grandpa the village chief, can you ask two people to go to the back mountain with me?" ”

Village Chief Lin was so annoyed by the three of them that he had a headache, and he really couldn't see the truth from the two chicken legs, so he called his grandson Lin Dazhuang and another young man surnamed Zou to follow.

"I'll go for you." Gu Shidao.

Lin Baobao thought for a while: "It's okay." ”

Just now, when she was talking to Lin Wulang, Gu Shi was standing next to her, and she heard it clearly, so she had nothing to explain.

The three of them left and went to the end of the village, Lin Baobao carefully observed Zou Pozi's expression, and there was no emptiness on her face.

It seems that they thought that their chickens were stolen by the fifth brother.

"Aunt Zou, you said that someone saw my fifth brother and them go to the back mountain? Who is that person? ”

Mrs. Zou glanced at her granddaughter who was dumb like a pestle next to her in disgust.

Zou Xiuyu shrank for a moment: "Yes, it's me...... That will my grandmother let me go home and pour water, just ...... I just saw ...... They ......"

She didn't seem used to being stared at by so many people, and she didn't dare to raise her head, and the more she spoke, the lower her voice became.

Lin Baobao glanced at her and didn't speak again.

Some villagers couldn't help but say: "Poor thing, a good girl, why is she so daring?" ”

"What else could it be?" The woman who spoke said to Zou Pozi Nunu: "I think it is better to stay in the Zou family and be a child daughter-in-law like a beautiful girl." ”

"Not really."

Mrs. Zou's face was pulled down, and she twisted Zou Xiuyu's arm angrily: "Lose money, who are you looking like this ghost for?" ”

"Mrs. Zou, what are you talking about, what do you mean by losing money? Aren't you a woman? ”

"I'm talking to my granddaughter, what's wrong with you?"

There was another quarrel here, and Feng Shi rolled his eyes.

The Liang Zi of her and Mrs. Zou was married because she helped the girl talk.

At that time, the two also had a fight, but the result was good, and the girl hid when she saw her later, as if someone had bullied her.

……

Gu Shi and the others didn't come back until about a quarter of an hour later.

During this period, the rest of the Lin family also came back from outside, and when they heard what had happened, they glared at Zou Pozi angrily one by one, and Zou Pozi was so frightened that she hid behind the crowd.

When I saw them come back, I came back to my feet.

"What do you say?" Village Chief Lin asked.

"It's up to you to decide." Gu Shi opened the lotus leaf bag in his hand, only to see a pile of black ashes inside, mixed with a few half-burned feathers.

The feathers are brownish-red, and they are strangely beautiful.

"This ...... It seems to be pheasant feathers. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone reacted instantly.

Pheasants and domestic chickens have different coat colors.

"This is what I picked up from the ashes left behind by the fifth brother's roast chicken, and the two of them can testify."

The two people who went to Houshan nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, we can testify." ”

Zou Pozi pouted: "There are pheasants in the back mountain, isn't it normal to lose a few hairs?" It can't be that Lin Goro mixed it in when he was picking up firewood. ”

When everyone heard this, it also made sense.

Feng was so angry that he slapped Lin Wulang on the back of the head: "Stinky boy, if you roast a chicken, you will roast a chicken, what are you doing with that hair?" ”

If it hadn't been burned, would the son-in-law have only brought this back?

Lin Wulang has a word of suffering.

Lin Baobao held her forehead, she really didn't expect Lin Wulang to play the game of destroying corpses.

Secretly, she now seriously doubts the origin of the pheasant.

Just when everyone thought that this matter had to reach an impasse again, Gu Shi coughed lightly: "Aunt Zou, don't worry, we have also found your chicken for you." ”

"What? Found it? Mrs. Zou was dumbfounded: "I searched around at home and couldn't find it, where did you find it?" ”

Gu Shi looked at Lin Dazhuang, and everyone realized that Lin Dazhuang was also holding something wrapped in lotus leaves in his hand.

When I opened it, I saw a pile of bones wrapped in mud.

Everyone: Hey, I thought it was a live chicken.

Lin Baobao found out, don't look at how calm he usually behaves with a stiff face, and he is still a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy on the inside-naïve.

Next, without worrying about opening his mouth, Lin Dazhuang told what had happened.

It turned out that after Gu Shi took them to pack pheasant feathers, he was worried that Zou Pozi was messing around, so he went to Zou's house again and dug up this pile of bones in the vegetable garden behind Zou's house.

Don't ask him how Gu Shi found this thing so accurately, Lin Dazhuang was also curious.

Mrs. Zou was completely blindfolded, and it was impossible for Lin Wulang to run to her house to hide bones at the risk of being found after eating chicken.

Isn't that sick?

Feng sneered and entered the courtyard without saying a word.

Everyone looked at each other, and was indiscriminately brought to the door of the house, and now that the truth is revealed, Feng Shi actually didn't have to pay attention to people, and took the opportunity to blackmail back?

It seems that Feng is not as difficult as they think.

Feng: Naive, the old lady is just thirsty and goes back to drink saliva.

"Then who stole my chicken?" Mrs. Zou only felt that her old face was hot.

"Isn't it obvious?" Lin Baobao's eyes swept and fell on Zou Xiuyu.

Zou Xiuyu's body trembled.

Zou Pozi turned her head violently and slapped it directly: "Losing money, you stole it, didn't you?" ”

"I, I ......" Zou Xiuyu wanted to explain, but Mrs. Zou didn't give her a chance to speak at all, and there were two slaps on the left and right, which knocked the person to the ground.

"If your wings are stiff, you dare to steal even the chickens at home, see if I don't kill you."

If it weren't for this dead girl telling her what to say, seeing Lin Wulang go to the back mountain, would she be able to lose such a big face?

Mrs. Zou usually beats and scolds her granddaughter at every turn, and she will avoid some people, but today she is angry, she doesn't care about it at all, and sits on her and squeezes and pinchs.

Zou Xiuyu couldn't dodge, so she could only cry and beg for mercy: "Milk, I don't dare, I don't dare anymore......"

The villagers, who were still muttering when they learned the truth, couldn't bear it and persuaded them one after another.

"Isn't it just a chicken, where is it so serious?"

"Xiuyu girl is a coward, she must be hungry to do that."

"Yes, don't fight, if it's broken, you won't have to spend money on medicine."

Zou Xiuyu also cried: "Milk, I'm just too hungry...... I really know it's wrong......"

Lin Baobao looked at it coldly: "I'm afraid it's more than that." ”

Her voice was so cold that the people present trembled inexplicably.

Mrs. Zou raised her head: "Lin Xiaoliu, what do you mean by this?" ”

"If I'm not mistaken, she should have stolen the chicken when she saw my fifth brother and Da Mao go to the back mountain."

Don't look at this simple order reversal, stealing chickens can be said to lie for fear of being beaten.

In the latter words, wouldn't they rush to set up blame?

Xiuyu girl doesn't look like such a scheming person.

"What's in it for her?" Some people don't believe it.

"The benefits? Didn't everyone shout to kick our family out of the village? ”

Their family was already disliked by the villagers, and if there was another theft, it would inevitably cause public anger......

Everyone looked embarrassed, and before they could figure out what the relationship between the two was, Lin Baobao's next sentence surprised the people present.

"Grandpa the village chief, grandpa of the two patriarchs, Zou Xiuyu pushed me into the pool and killed me, I implore you to make the decision for me."
