Chapter 47 Midnight Farce

Zhao Liya went to the scene while going home to draw pictures, where to stack, where to press sugar, where to store various tools, build warehouses everywhere, set up offices and rest areas everywhere, open doors everywhere, build value rooms, and where to store various tools.

Build seed soaking ponds everywhere...etc.

I drew the drawings, went to the site to compare them, discussed with Hu Ling, Ruan Guishu, Li Zheng, etc., revised the drawings, tried to be as thorough as possible, and didn't miss anything before starting work.

Anyway, I still have plenty of time!

Don’t worry about manpower, they can definitely get it done before the autumn harvest. Don’t worry about bricks, tiles, wood, stones and other building materials. People from Zaihu Village are here to help. It’s very convenient and trouble-free to buy these things, and you can get very suitable prices.

In the middle of the night, every household in the village was sleeping soundly. Suddenly, a burst of shrill screams rose into the sky, startling the dogs of the dog owners in the village to bark, and countless people were woken up by disturbing their dreams.

"what happened?"

"What happened?"

Many people lay in bed and listened, panicked, while many simply put on their clothes and got out of bed, went out, and followed the direction of the screams.

When we met our neighbors on the road, we all felt a little braver, talking and walking together.

It was the Zhao family's yard that made the shrill scream.

At this time, the Zhao family had opened the courtyard door and lit oil lamps and fir tree torches filled with grease that burned for a long time.

When everyone arrived, Zhao Xiang, Zhao Liya, Hu Ling, and Widow Qu were tying up people.

They were bundled with thumb-thick hemp ropes, and there were a pile of six arrogant seventeen-eighth-year-olds on the ground. The biggest young men were no more than twenty-three-four years old. Their mouths were all stuffed with straw balls.

I'm coming, I'm struggling, but I can't speak.

"This is--"

Everyone was shocked when they saw this!

Zhao Xiang bowed his hands to everyone and said, "Please bear witness, these thieves climbed over the wall at night and sneaked into our house in an attempt to steal. The people in our family are timid and most of them have little strength, so they have been very

Be careful, just for fear of being noticed by thieves. No, there will be a layer of thorns under the wall in the yard every night. These people don't know it, but they were all injured when they jumped down, and then we took it down...

..."

Everyone looked around, and by the light of the fire, they saw the thorn bushes laid under the inner wall of the courtyard. They imagined what it would be like to jump from such a high wall, and couldn't help but feel their scalps numb and gasp.

"Oh my God, this is too tragic!"

"Hmph, you deserve it!"

"Yes, you deserve it!"

"It's a good thing that the Zhao family is cautious, otherwise wouldn't it be bad? My family will have to be more careful in the future."

"Yes......"

The Gu family also came, and upon hearing Zhao Xiang's story and accusation, they were so angry that they fainted.

Is the Zhao family really sick? Who would take the trouble to spread a layer of thorns under the walls of the entire yard at night? They couldn't possibly know that someone is coming tonight, which means they do this every night!

Are you sick? Are you really sick?

There are also these people who brag about everything in the sky and earth, and pat their chests to show that it is a piece of cake. But what’s the result? That’s it?

Even if he was pricked by thorns, wouldn't he have any strength to resist? How could he be tied up easily?

Of course Mr. Gu would not know that the reason why these people were tied up so easily was thanks to the useful Ruanjin Powder given by Yu Xiaofang.

Although the name of this medicinal powder is so popular, the effect is really not exaggerated!

Zhao Liya was already thinking silently in her mind, and would ask him for more later...

Of course Mr. Gu couldn't let these people fall into the hands of the Zhao family so easily. He immediately stepped forward and said loudly: "These people broke into the Zhao family today. I don't know whose house they will break into tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. What will they do to us?"

Yancun is a threat. I will ask clearly and give everyone an explanation! The second child, the third child, and the rest of you will go over to help and take these people away."

"Wait!"

Naturally, it was impossible for the Zhao family to let them take people away so easily.

If these people hadn't been brought here by the Gu family, they wouldn't have believed it even if they were beaten to death!

Not only did they think so, but many of the villagers watching also knew it, but they didn't dare to say it because of the fierce and domineering Gu family.

Boss Gu's eyes were as cold as a poisonous snake, and he clung to Zhao Liya and said coldly: "What do you mean? I have the final say in matters in the village."

"But they sneaked into our home secretly. We naturally have the power to deal with them. We should report them to the official."

"Hey this——"

The crowd was in a commotion. As soon as someone opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Boss Gu's cough of "cough cough cough!". Boss Gu sneered: "What did you say? You want to report to the official?"

"right!"

Boss Gu smiled "Haha!" "If you really want to apply for official service, then go ahead and apply. This would be even better. You don't have to worry about me anymore. Why don't you go now and walk to the county town, it's almost perfect."

Zhao Liya thought for a while, discussed with her father and Hu Ling for a while and nodded: "Okay, we'll go after we pack up."

Boss Gu glanced at everyone: "If nothing happens, hurry up and leave."

Everyone did not dare to disobey him and soon left.

Before some left, they looked at the Zhao family and hesitated to speak, but they were obviously afraid of Boss Gu and no one dared to say anything.

Boss Gu said coldly: "This matter is related to the safety of the entire Yancun. I want to follow you to the county seat. I will not be relieved until I see you enter the county seat with my own eyes."

Zhao Liya smiled: "Okay!"

She smiled again and said, "I didn't expect you guys to be so thoughtful!"

Boss Gu snorted coldly and ignored her at all.

Zhao Liya didn't care. Soon, the family was packed up. Zhao Liya, Zhao Xiang and Hu Ling worked together to tie the thieves into rice dumplings and headed towards the county town with their mouths gagged.

After all this fuss in the middle of the night, the rooster has already crowed. Although the eastern sky has not yet lit up, the morning star hangs low and its silvery light is deserted. Obviously, it is estimated to be after four o'clock at this time, and the sky will soon be dark.

It will gradually get brighter.

In addition, there had just been such a commotion in the village, and it was expected that the Gu family would not do anything else at this time, so Zhao Liya and the others felt relieved to leave.

Walking leisurely all the way, when I saw the high city wall of the county town in the distance, it was getting brighter.

Brother Gu and Brother Gu refused to leave and watched Zhao Liya and the others leave.

After confirming that they had entered the city, the brothers left.

Gu Laoer gloated: "These idiots really think they are something! They will suffer this time."

Boss Gu: "Smartness is mistaken for cleverness. Don't they think they are smart? Haha!"

When a criminal files a lawsuit against a good citizen, regardless of whether it is justified or not, he must first be slapped with a thirty-strong killing stick. If the final result of the trial is that the accusation is false, he will be imprisoned for three months.

I'm afraid the Zhao family never dreamed of such a rule, right? Otherwise, they wouldn't talk about it.
