Chapter 20 Confrontation
Outside the hospital, Father Xiao could hardly stop the people rushing into the house.
"Go get a kitchen knife now." Ling Mei ordered Luo Guixiang in a cold voice. "Rush out and chop a few more, maybe you can cover it up. Hurry, otherwise it will be too late."
At her wits' end, Luo Guixiang rushed to the kitchen and rushed out of the house with a machete, slashing at people and shouting: "I'm not going to live anymore! Gu Jinhua and Ma Jianjun, who killed a thousand people, you want to rob my daughter.
I will die with you!"
When everyone saw that she was going crazy and slashing people with kitchen knives, they were really frightened.
Luo Guixiang pointed her knife at Gu Jinhua and said in a loud voice: "Old Qian woman, your son wants to eat swan meat! I am so heartbroken that I agreed to give Lingmei to your family. You are bullying us because of your large number of people, so be good."
Even if I die here today, I will never let you succeed!"
After saying that, she raised the knife and cut her own neck. Father Xiao was so frightened that he grabbed her wrist and said, "Guixiang!"
Luo Guixiang's head and neck already had blood marks.
Lingmei raised her eyebrows slightly when she saw this: She had been cruel to herself. Luo Guixiang had passed this test.
"What are you doing? You are trying to rebel!"
Hong Cun's angry scoldings could be heard outside the courtyard. He rushed over with the village committee officials and the Xiao family's parents and family.
Seeing this, Xu Lanfang, Yueshan's mother, was so angry that she almost fainted and her face turned livid.
"Well, you Gu Jinhua! When were you still a landowner, ruling the world with one hand? This is the new China in the 1980s! You Ma family and Gu family still want to come to the house and rob civilian girls in broad daylight? Yes, your family is an official,
Don’t forget that Ma Youde also has an official! If you dare to take action today, I will hang you with a rope at the door of the town committee office. You try!”
Her man, Xiao Yuanliang, had a Chinese character face and a medium build. He stared at Gu Jinhua and the others with a sullen face. He said coldly: "We, the Xiao family, are not afraid of death. You can go ahead and give it a try."
Hongcun shouted: "That's enough." He looked at the Ma family members with anger and said, "Gu Jinhua, you are very old. It doesn't matter if you don't understand the law. Ma Jianjun, you are a well-educated person and you know what crime you committed today.
?"
Ma Jianjun smiled but said: "Hongcun, don't say you don't have these things. We are here today just to ask Xiao Yueshan to give an explanation to our family."
"What explanation?!" Hongcun's eyes widened, "Why did his family bother you?"
Gu Jinhua saw that the village chief and the Xiao family were all here, and said with a faint smile: "What's wrong with us? She, Luo Guixiang, took a large yellow croaker from my family as a betrothal gift, and she still wants to regret it?"
The scene fell into a ghostly silence for a moment, and then became commotion.
At this time, Xiao's house was already filled with villagers inside and outside.
"A big yellow croaker. What a big deal!"
"How much does it cost? Ten taels of gold, ten thousand yuan, right?"
"more than!"
Luo Guixiang didn't wait for her husband to react before she picked up the knife and scolded: "You black-hearted old godly woman is full of shit! Where did our family offend you? Even if you want to match your son with a secret marriage, you can't hit a living person with your idea.
Come on! What kind of big yellow croaker is there planned? It’s so black-hearted that even if it dies, it can’t be better than a beast who deserves to suffer in the eighteenth level of hell!”
Gu Jinhua's eyebrows raised: "Hongcun, Jianguo told me this before his death. He said he liked Lingmei and must marry her. He asked me for a large yellow croaker as a betrothal gift."
Hongcun frowned: "Really or not?"
"If it's true or not, can we just go into the house and search it?" Gu Jinhua sneered, "That gold bar is an heirloom gold bar from my mother's family. I bought it in the spring of 1930. It also has my father Gu Liangfa's name on it."
"Nonsense!" Luo Guixiang shouted at the top of her lungs, "If I take your gold bars, I will be struck by lightning and die!"
There was a lot of noise in the front yard, and Lingmei was already looking around in her parents' room.
The Ma family obviously came prepared. Maybe they did something secretly at home?
She quickly searched the drawers and secret places in the room, even under the toilet, but found nothing. When she was so worried, she had an idea.
"Jin Yuanbao, help me find if there are any gold bars in the house."
Jin Yuanbao's voice was brisk: "It's a piece of cake."
A three-dimensional perspective view of her house appeared before Lingmei's eyes.
marvelous!
Let Mei take a breath. Where is the gold bar?
The image was drawn from the inside to the outside. When it was pulled to the east wall of the kitchen, there was a faint golden light shining in the wall.
Lingmei immediately put away the image, found the wall bricks, and tapped lightly. Sure enough, they were loose. She tried to pull out a few stone bricks, and a small piece of red cotton cloth suddenly appeared in front of her eyes.
What was wrapped in red cloth was really a gold bar, with the date of purchase and Gu Liangfa engraved on it. Ling Mei sneered, threw the gold bar into the space, and stuffed it back into the wall brick as it was. Then she strode outside the courtyard: "Dad, Mom
."
Father Xiao shouted angrily: "What are you doing out here? Go inside!"
"Xiao Nizi finally came out." Gu Jinhua gritted her teeth with hatred when she saw Ling Mei, "Look at her, look at the foxy look on Ji's face. If she hadn't seduced my son, my son wouldn't -
—" Gu Jinhua gasped, stroking her breasts. "Since you want to be my Ma family's wife so much, I will make you a widow for the rest of your life!"
"This is simply unreasonable!" Hongcun was furious. He pointed at Ma Jianjun and asked, "Your mother is confused and so are you? What does this have to do with Lingmei? You and your mother want to bully men and dominate women in the village. How serious is it?
I, the village chief, am a jobber?"
Ma Jianjun kept silent: "Hongcun, I'll give you your face. As long as Xiao Yueshan lets us search his house today, and if no gold bars are found, I will immediately kowtow to accompany him and take my mother away, and promise not to trouble them again."
"Are you a police officer? Why do you search people's homes?" Hongcun was so angry that his chest hurt.
"Hongcun, how can you take my gold bars and not let anyone know, and you still want to get rid of the gold bars?" Ma Jianjun stared at Ling Mei's beautiful face, and said to himself: Wait until this little girl comes to my house, and then enjoy it.
Hongcun snorted coldly: "I called Captain Lu before I came here. They will be here in a moment. If you want to search your home, okay, tell Captain Lu."
"Okay." Ma Jianjun chuckled, "I just wanted to ask Captain Lu how the investigation of my brother's case went."
The two families faced off like this for more than half an hour, until Team Lu arrived with Deng Chunlai.
"Okay, Aunt Gu." Captain Lu saw this formation, touched the gun on his waist, and admired. "I was told before that you and the Xiao family only had a verbal marriage, and nothing has been decided. Today...
Has it progressed to a big yellow croaker? Do you know what the crime of giving false evidence to obstruct the police's handling of the case is?"
Gu Jinhua's face didn't move: "Captain Lu, I saved face for the Xiao family last time and gave them time to return the gold bars to me. I didn't expect them to want to get rid of the gold bars and refuse to admit it. You came at the right time, so you have to give it to us.
Call the shots."
Team Lu put his hands on his hips up and down: "How to make the decision? Tell me and I'll listen."
Gu Jinhua said word by word: "I want to search Xiao Yueshan's home!"
Chapter completed!
