The village chief's words directly sentenced Wan Qing's family to death. Since they had just been frightened by Fu Yuan, the others did not dare to say anything more.
I just feel that the Wanqing family is really unlucky, having offended the most unprovoked family in the village.
And they also silently kept this matter in mind, always reminding themselves and their children not to offend the Zhao family casually.
Wan Qing fainted from fright. Fu Yuan wiped the blood on his sword with some disgust and moved farther away from Wan Qing.
Wan Qing's parents kept complaining about how miserable their lives were, but they didn't realize that the theatergoers around them had begun to leave quietly.
"Your son is not dead yet. Go back and raise money quickly. The sooner you raise enough money, the less suffering Wan Qing will suffer."
The village chief snorted coldly and prepared to go home with his hands behind his back.
The people who had been holding Wan Qing's parents back also moved away. The old couple were free, but they did not dare to say anything offensive to the Zhao family again.
Just thinking about those five taels of silver gave them a headache.
Now the family has not even five hundred taels of silver, let alone five taels of silver. Otherwise, this daughter-in-law would have been married and brought home long ago.
Now that the daughter-in-law didn't catch it, she still had to pay five taels of silver, which was a huge loss for them.
Wan Qing's mother cried so hard that she wanted to take the opportunity to play the emotional card and borrow some money from the tribesmen. When she turned around, she found that most of the theatergoers had left, and the remaining few were walking and running, and soon
He disappeared from their sight, as if he was afraid of being caught up by them.
Wan Qingniang: "..."
Could it be that they are some kind of ferocious beast? Why are they running so fast!
Didn't you just put in a good word for her? These people are so heartless!
In comparison, only the village chief walked slower, and the old couple hurriedly chased after him.
The village chief's family has a good relationship with the Zhao family. They have benefited a lot from the Zhao family. They must have so much money. Today, the village chief helped outsiders instead of his own people. Wan Qing's mother has already held a grudge in her heart.
I thought that the five taels of silver should be paid by the village chief, otherwise the old couple would go to the village chief's house to cause trouble to see who was more shameless!
The village chief never thought that he would be relied upon by them. He was caught up within a few steps and asked to borrow money as soon as he opened his mouth.
Logically speaking, as the village chief and clan leader, he should lend a hand when the clan members need help, but today he did not want to help Wanqing's family.
First of all, it was indeed Wan Qing who wanted to bully a widow because of his debt. In addition, the old couple persisted in saying such things, which made him feel very off-putting.
The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. It is because of parents like this that people like Wan Qing are raised. The village chief wants them to learn a lesson, so he has no intention of helping at all.
"How can my family get money now? There are so many people in the family. They used to buy food. But now there is not much food left. I go digging wild vegetables in the mountains every day. How can I lend it to your family?"
The village chief snorted coldly, his tone full of rejection and ridicule.
"Village chief, you can't ignore us! You are the chief of our village and the head of our Wan family, how can you ignore us?"
Wanqing's mother knelt on the ground and hugged the village chief's thigh without letting go. She opened her mouth and started howling: "My Wanqing is so pitiful. He didn't get a wife at such a young age, and now he is in trouble like this. Just now, he was still in trouble.
Someone pointed a long sword at his neck. Did the village chief see it? He was already bleeding! Please save my Wanqing. I promise that he will not do those wrong things again in the future. If he dares to bully others again, I will
Just break his hands!"
That's what he said, but he actually didn't think so in his heart. When the village chief looked down at Wan Qingniang, he found that although she was howling, she didn't shed a single tear.
The village chief became increasingly unhappy and tried to get rid of Wan Qingniang, but was unable to do so. He could only drag one leg back home with difficulty.
Wanqing's parents also followed the village chief back home. However, after the village chief arrived, his family members came out. The old couple did not dare to follow them, so they had to call for help at the door.
This sound alarmed the neighbors next door. If it were normal times, they would have come out to watch the fun. But now that they know that the old couple are here to borrow money, every household is hiding at home and dare not come out. After all, they are all related to each other.
If I go out and are seen by them, won't I be trapped?
So no one came out, but secretly listened to the noise in their own yards.
The village chief was hugged by Wan Qing's mother all the way. He just felt unlucky. When he entered the door, he said he wanted to wash his feet and ignored the old couple outside.
"What's going on? Didn't you go to deal with the matter? Why did Wanqing's parents come with him?"
The village chief's family was busy, so he didn't go with the village chief to solve the problem. Naturally, he didn't know what happened in the Zhao family.
While soaking his feet, the village chief recounted what happened in the Zhao family. The eldest daughter-in-law immediately sighed and said, "It turns out it's that bastard Wan Qing! In my opinion, he deserves it! Don't talk about the fat girl.
, I passed by his house several times, and he glanced at me with evil intentions. If he wasn't jealous of my status, he would probably want to do me harm! There were also other little girls who were scared to see him.
He walked away in hiding. Such a gangster should be taught a lesson by the Zhao family!"
The village chief had never known that something like this could happen. This was his own daughter-in-law, and she was older than ten thousand years. How dare that kid have such evil thoughts?
At this time, the second daughter-in-law also stood up and said: "He also looked at me with evil eyes..."
village head:"!!!"
That’s okay!
He already regretted that he had beaten him lightly when he started. If he had known better, he would have just broken his legs and asked his parents to take him back. The compensation money could not offset the victim's anger at all.
But now that he has already promised to pay five taels of silver, he can't go back on his word. Forget it, let's just do it.
"The Wanqing family indeed deserves their punishment, but they are shouting outside our house now, which has a bad impact on our family. Come on, follow me and beat them away!"
The village chief's wife also gritted her teeth in anger and went out with a broom and several daughters-in-law to beat people.
Wanqing's parents were a little happy when they saw the door opened, thinking that they could borrow five taels of silver right away. Who knew that the village chief's wife beat them without saying a word, but the force was not strong enough to kill them?
Beat him to death, but it's okay to lie in bed for a few days.
Wan Qing's mother was hiding and said: "Sister-in-law, what are you doing? We are a family after all. Now that my family is in trouble, I come to your house to pray for help. Is this how your family treats us?"
"Help, folks! Come and see the patriarch's wife beating someone. She doesn't deserve to be the leader of the clan. It's okay if they don't help the clan members when they encounter difficulties. But she actually beats people. If you don't want to be the leader of the clan, don't become one!
"
"You are taking advantage of the clan leader's dividends but not helping us clan members. You and your family are really shameless!"
"If you can, beat me to death here. Even if I turn into a ghost, I won't let you go!"
"Don't think I don't know. Your family is the same as the Zhao family. You are a dead thing with his elbows turned outward. After receiving the benefits of the Zhao family, you no longer know your own name. If this continues, who do you think you are?
The clansmen still obey your discipline!"
…
Wan Qingniang screamed after being beaten, but she didn't say forgiving at all. She was completely broken now. Anyway, she knew that the village chief's family was unwilling to help, so she would ruin the reputation of their Yi family and let them
I regret my choice today.
The most important thing is that she was right. The village chief's family just took advantage of the Zhao family, so they treated them like this.
The families next door all felt sad when they heard this. Wan Qingniang really dared to say that she would really have a grudge against the clan leader and his family in the future.
Although everyone knows that the patriarch's family has taken advantage of Zhao Huanyu, the patriarch has never done anything to protect the Zhao family. Today's incident was originally about Wan Qing being a bitch to provoke someone's fat mother and kicking her to the iron plate.
What does the village chief have to do with causing such a disaster?
The most important thing is that many smart people actually know that the village chief is already helping Wan Qing's family. Otherwise, if Wan Qing does what Wan Qing does, he will probably be dragged directly into the pig cage by Zhao Huanyu's family.
Although murder and arson must be punished by law, as long as someone can prove that he has indeed done such a thing, the village has the right to put him to death for such an insult.
But as soon as the village chief arrived, he beat up Wan Qing in front of everyone, and then began to help and beg for mercy, which was considered to be the most benevolent and righteous thing.
However, Wanqing's parents didn't know what they were thinking, and they dared to come to the door and say such unpleasant things. Isn't that just asking for death?
The village chief's wife took several of her daughters-in-law, beat the old couple up, then went home and slammed the door. Not to mention borrowing money, they were not even willing to borrow a pebble at the door.
give them.
Wan Qingniang was so addicted that she realized she was in trouble. She sat on the ground blankly, not knowing what to do.
She is also a person with a good face. It would be too fake to go to the village chief and his family to plead for mercy now. She will not be able to borrow money and will be laughed at and humiliated. She will not do that kind of thing!
At this time, Wanqing's father came over and helped her up. He turned to look at his old man, feeling angry again in his heart.
"You damn old man, it was me who was talking just now. Why don't you even dare to fart? That's your son! You useless thing! This village is full of your relatives, why don't you hurry up and find someone to borrow it from?
Money, you only have one son left, do you want to give the white-haired man to the black-haired man again?"
As she said this, she pushed the old man, feeling very angry.
Wanqing's father usually doesn't talk much, and he is also afraid of his wife at home. He feels that what his wife said is what he wants to say, so there is no need to say it again.
Of course, the main reason is cowardice. He lets his wife take the lead in everything, but he is a grown man who doesn't even dare to fart. Sometimes he is beaten and scolded by his wife for no reason.
Just like now, when his wife scolded him so unpleasantly, he still didn't dare to reply. He just lowered his head and waited for his wife to take him to borrow money from relatives.
Wan Qing's mother had long been accustomed to the old man's attitude. She got angry and went to find someone to borrow money, cursing.
In any case, there were still several families in the village who were friends with her family. Although everyone was in a dilemma, they still borrowed some money willingly. However, the total borrowed by these families was less than one tael of silver.
Wan Qing's mother is so worried.
So, in order to redeem their worthless son, the old couple ran around, going to their daughter's son-in-law's house, and then to her own parents' house, asking for help, and finally scraped together five taels of silver, and on the third day
Wanqing redeemed it.
"Why did you come just now? For three whole days, they didn't even give me a sip of water. I was about to starve to death!"
Wan Qing felt that his parents were of no use at all. They only had five taels of silver. He could just borrow it casually. Why did he have to wait until the third day to pick him up?
Who can be blamed for why he did such a thing? It’s not his fault that his parents didn’t give him a wife, so he’s still a bachelor now!
All the faults were due to his parents. In the early years, they gave all the money to his eldest brother to pay off his debts. As a result, his eldest brother cared about food and neglected beatings. He soon lost everything and was beaten to death.
In his opinion, his eldest brother was a waste of money, which brought down the family and prevented him from marrying a wife.
"Oh, no one's family is having a hard time these days. It's hard to borrow five taels of silver. Your father and I raised the money only after all our relatives came over. We don't know how many years of hardship we will have to pay back the money."
, and I don’t know when I will be able to save the money for my wife’s bride price..."
Wan Qing's mother never said a word wrong to Wan Qing from the beginning to the end. Seeing that her son was all injured and hadn't eaten for several days, she felt heartbroken and wanted to go back with her son to make delicious food.
When Wan Qing heard that his family had to pay off debts first before preparing to marry him a wife, he immediately became unhappy and said angrily: "Can't you marry me a wife first? If it weren't for the fact that you didn't marry me a wife,
, can I do that kind of thing? That stinky bitch is so shameless. A bastard dares to look down on me. Sooner or later, I will find an opportunity to deal with her!"
Speaking of this, Wan Qing's mother said angrily: "Tell me, what are you doing? Wouldn't you have blocked his mouth before doing anything? Finish the matter first, even if someone comes.
, you have already cooked the rice, what else can they do to you? This woman, once she gives you a body, she will be yours, and she will be devoted to you for the rest of her life. By then, not only will we be able to save the gift money,
If there is one more worker in the family, life will be so much easier!"
That said, she was still a little angry at Wanqing for not getting things done.
When Wan Qing saw that his mother actually said this, he immediately felt that he was at a disadvantage. If he had another chance, he would definitely knock people out and do things directly. When the time comes, who can do anything to him?
"Okay, okay, why are you talking about those things now? Let's go back first."
Wan Qing's father, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but speak. We were still on the way, and the mother and son started discussing that kind of thing. What if someone with a heart heard this?
However, once this idea was planted, it began to grow crazily in Wan Qing's heart. He must find another chance to bring a woman home!
