Chapter 227: It's not over

Wang didn't say anything, let people quickly put on a graceful rice porridge, and some small pickles to distribute, some close to home, simply take out the dishes and chopsticks at home and distribute them to everyone first!

Wang's first packed a few big bowls, the first one was given to Lizheng, the patriarch was a few people, several of them were old people, such a toss, they were already tired, and now there is fragrant hot porridge, how can they take care of anything else, take it one by one, eat it first!

Seeing that everyone's emotions have calmed down a little, the Li family's hearts have been relieved, and these porridges have not been made in vain!

Zhao Lu also took a bowl of porridge, moved it to the patriarch and Li Zheng, and said while taking a small sip: "You two are respected clan elders, I don't know what you two think about today's matter?"

Li was drinking porridge slowly, not in a hurry to reply to his words, but frowned tightly, he was also very puzzled about today's events, over the years, it is not that there have been disaster victims, and he has not been in contact with the livelihood of the disaster victims.

But they also grabbed some food, and it was not impossible to kill people, but it was also purposeful, and most of them really had no way to live, and when they encountered the other party's desperate resistance, they would kill them in order to survive.

But now that the Li family is giving soup to the family, the victims will not starve to death! If they really rob the village for food and clothing, not to mention whether they have robbed enough for them to eat, even if they rob the richest people, there is no guarantee that they will be able to survive this winter!

And even if they offend the entire village by doing so, once the Li family no longer gives porridge, then their consequences will only be even more tragic! No matter how good these people are, they will not block their own way of life!

But if they weren't the victims, who would they be? Not to mention that their village had no quarrel with the world, but it was not rich enough to cause chaos among others! Even the Li family could earn more by growing mushrooms these days, but most of the silver was given to the white-eyed wolf of Zhi'er!

What are the remaining taels of silver enough for? Not to mention a big family like the Mei family, even those merchants in the town are stronger than the Li family, is it worth it to deliberately find trouble with the Li family?

Don't say that the two families that were killed are much worse than the Li family, they are all farmers who dig in the soil, and no one believes them when they offend people!

The patriarch also had the same expression, sighing and eating porridge, but the two of them were obviously moving a lot slower!

For a long time, Zhengcai whispered: "Although there is no evidence that they did this, who else can be the murderer and arson? If the murderer cannot be found, the people in the village will always be panicked! I have to give everyone an explanation!"

Zhao Lu also frowned, did he know that it was not the victims who did it, and he also wanted to throw this black pot at the victims? At that time, the anger of the people in the village would have an outlet, but what should the victims do? Without the relief of the Li family, how many of them would have survived this winter!

Li Laosan didn't know when he ran to a few people. Hearing Li Zheng's words, he nodded deeply, but still whispered: "That's right, you're always thinking about it! Nothing is as important as the stability of the village, but what about these disaster victims?"

A man next to him leaned next to the patriarch, and at first glance it was the patriarch's family, and he ate all the porridge in the bowl in one go, and said: "What's so difficult about this! Kick people out of the village, and if there is trouble, just arrest them and give everyone a vent!"

Li Laosan sighed: "If only things were so simple!"

The man glanced at Li Laosan, and while asking people to serve him another bowl of porridge, he said absentmindedly: "What can be so difficult about this, can't the people in our village deal with a few of them?"

Li Laosan carefully looked at Li Zhenghe and the patriarch from the corner of his eye, and saw that they did not refute him, but listened seriously, so he whispered:

"These few victims in the village are nothing, but there are still a lot of disaster victims outside, what if they form a group?

"They dare?" the man almost screamed, unconvinced. The patriarch glanced over, the man obediently closed his voice, lowered his head slightly, sat back in place honestly, and took the porridge bowl handed over to him, and ate it again!

Li Laosan smiled, and still whispered: "If this person was killed by them, then what would they not dare? If the person was not killed by them, would the murderer take this opportunity to deal with the village again? At that time, we are afraid that we will be even more passive!"

Li Zheng exchanged glances with the patriarch, and both nodded slightly, Li Laosan was right, if he didn't find the real murderer, even if he appeased the people in the village, there would be endless troubles!

Zhao Lu saw that the time was almost up, and then he said: "If you want me to see, these victims can't be released in a hurry, whether they have anything to do with this matter or not, it will be safer to lock them up first." Now the main thing is to ensure the safety of the village!"

Everyone nodded when they heard this, and Zhao Lu said again: "In my opinion, it is better to arrange someone to sort out the village first, no matter which one it is, you have to look for it carefully, whether there are strangers here." Especially the deserted houses where no one lives and the wasteland where people can be hidden! We must not let go of a suspicious person!"

Li Zheng was the first to nod, "It's a top priority, this is the first thing to do!"

The patriarch also nodded: "Let people see, whether everyone in the village is here, but there is no family, in case these people not only kill two families, if they don't set fire, we can't miss it!"

With the explanation of Li Zheng and the patriarch, everyone slowly looked for it according to the address, and for a while, there was an uproar!

"Didn't anyone from the Liuzi family come?"

"Liuziniang is sick, I saw him coming in the morning, maybe I'll go back to see her mother!"

"Isn't the dog there?"

"I must be lazy, I haven't seen anyone for a long time, but I saw it before work, it should be fine!"

········

"The old Liu family didn't come!"

"The old woman is not in good health, didn't the two of them go back early?"

"Has anyone seen them from yesterday to today?"

The commotion lasted for a long time, and finally someone handed over the news of several families who were not here to a few people, several of whom were there before, and now they are not there, maybe something left, but they really found two families, and they have not seen anyone.

Li Zheng and the patriarch saw that everyone had eaten about the same, so they arranged for people to go to these houses to have a look!

At the same time, the two of them also got up slowly, and Li Zheng said: "Why don't we go and have a look!" The old Liu family is a family of two, and it may be inconvenient for legs and feet, and it is not far away, so start with their house!"

Li Laosan smiled, and said in Zhao Lu's ear in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Don't look at how the people in the village are not serious behind their backs, but she must have married into the Mei family, when something happens, even Li Zheng has to consider the mood of the Mei family first, and is very polite to the Liu family!"
