Chapter 339 Why burn them to death

Actually, it doesn't have to think too long.

Although the children in this small yard are all called "ominous son" and are not popular, they have never made grudges and enemies with others.

Not to mention this kind of blood feud that never ends!

Soon someone recalled the movements in the alley two days ago, and his face changed immediately.

Although they were hiding at home and dared not show up, they also heard what those people shouted...

It's the Cheng family!

Everyone had fear in their eyes and exchanged their eyes tacitly.

The atmosphere stagnates as if it was frozen.

The two yamen officers had never encountered such a thing. They looked at each other, their eyes full of panic.

In the end, the tall and thin yamen servant gritted his teeth: "...You are here first, I'll call someone to come!"

The fat yamen officer had no choice but to grit his teeth and nod, and his fat body blocked in front of the two dead bodies.

"Okay, okay, stop watching! Go away!"

However, how can I stop it?

Someone also walked around the corner of the wall and screamed: "There are also traces of tinea oil here!"

——Add a piece of evidence added.

The people living nearby are all poor people, who were more or less bullied by the Cheng family in the past. The two people who died are now the servants of the Cheng family. Although many people don’t say it, they almost show some pleasure in their eyes.

For a time, more and more people were around.

The fat yamen was in a difficult position. He could block this one, but he couldn't stop the other one.

Ruan Mingzi stood in the crowd in a silver-white cloak, very conspicuous.

She held the basket and saw more and more people, she suddenly choked and cried: "...I don't believe it, I don't believe it!"

Her voice was sweet and crisp, and she was as eye-catching as a colorful feather standing up in the snow in the crowds of winter.

The little girl who sounds nice and is born like a fairy descending to earth, crying is like a person who is so excited that everyone looks at her.

She looked at the fat yamen innocence and ignorance, her big eyes were filled with tears, and her crisp and sweet voice was trembling: "...Uncle, I don't believe it! They said that these two people were here to set fire, this must be fake, right?"

The fat yamen is already big.

He stuttered: "...it's just some speculations without evidence, and it's not impossible to prove these things at the moment..."

When he said this, others were unhappy and shouted: "What does it mean to be proven?!"

"That's right, the two of them came outside the yard with tinea oil late at night, and they sprinkled some around the yard wall. Isn't this going to set fire? Is it going to keep warm?!"

"That's it! I think there are some better in that jar. If you don't believe it's turmeric oil, then I'll borrow a fire for you and just click it!"

People's sentiment is infuriating.

Ruan Mingzi cried even more sadly, her shoulders shrugging, as if she couldn't accept it at all: "Why! What mistake did the children make? Are these two people going to do this?"

Her voice was not very high, but these questions seemed to hit everyone's hearts.

Yes, what mistakes did those kids make?

Want to burn them to death so cruelly?!

Ruan Mingzi's crying questions brought the atmosphere to a climax.

The fat yamen had a fine sweat oozing from the forehead, and he could only stammer and say "I don't know either."

Everyone's emotions have been mobilized at this moment, and they ask directly with passion:

"Do you really don't know, or because this is a member of the Cheng family, you dare not know?!"

"I think the government office has the surname Cheng, right?"

A shout erupted in the crowd.

Everyone was silent first, and then they were as if they were ignited, and the crowd was excited.

Although this is a bit biased and not suitable for the present, given the government's consistent attitude towards the Cheng family, this is simply the voice of the people who have been bullied for a long time.

The fat yamen was sweating profusely, how could he dare to reply to a word?

If another yamen officer had not called reinforcements and hurriedly carried away the two bodies in resistance to the condemnation of everyone, he would have been surrounded by angry people today.

After the officials carried the bodies away, the crowd slowly dispersed.

But almost everyone's face was filled with an indignation.

Ruan Mingzi looked at him silently without saying a word.

When the crowd was almost dispersed, she went to gently knock on the door of the courtyard.

A very light question came from behind the door almost immediately: "Who?"

Ruan Mingzi responded: "It's me."

The door opened very quickly, as if it had been waiting behind the door.

Xiao Shi opened the door, her eyes were red and her eyes were full of tears.

Ruan Mingzi felt distressed when she looked at it, but the door was not the place to speak at the moment. She quickly walked into the yard with a basket on her shoulder.

Xiao Shi quickly closed the door.

She obviously had a lot to ask, but in the end she stuttered her lips and asked: "Sister, did that brother, didn't you come with you?"

Ruan Mingzi pursed her lips and showed a light smile: "Well, that brother, there is something else happening today."

Xiao Shi was sensible and didn't ask any more questions.

She obediently accompanied Ruan Mingzi into the house.

The charcoal stove and charcoal that Ruan Mingzi sent to him yesterday were burning in the room, but only a few pieces of charcoal were burning. The younger children seemed to be on the edge of the charcoal stove, roasting on fire.

"...Why don't you burn more charcoal?" Ruan Mingzi asked.

An older girl was holding a cradle in her arms, hilariously, obviously coaxing the child to sleep. She smiled shyly and replied in a low voice: "... Everyone is awake during the day, and it's not too cold. Burn more at night, so that you can save some charcoal."

She added again, "Sister has given us a lot of things, so there is no need to give them anymore. We can save as much as we can."

Xiao Shi also nodded on the side: "Yeah, my third sister is right." Her face was full of happiness, "Now we have cotton coats, charcoal, and meat to eat, which is already very good. It is better to save some."

At the end, she felt a little uncomfortable again and murmured, "...If only Qi Ning was there."

Ruan Mingzi sighed and said nothing.

The mistress is now the oldest child in the yard except Qining. Even so, she looks only eleven or twelve years old this year.

She held the child in her arms and asked Ruan Mingzi in a low voice: "...Sister, what are you quarreling outside just now?" There was a worry between her eyebrows, "...Xiao Shi helped me detain the children, and didn't dare to open the door to see, nor did he let them go to the yard to play."

Ruan Mingzi whispered: "You are doing well. The situation is a bit messy now. You should try not to go out in the yard these days. I will take you all away in a few days."

The mistress didn't say anything, but just responded softly.

Xiao Shi's lips moved slightly, obviously wanting to ask something.

But she still asked nothing in the end.
