The villagers in Liujin Village were infected by this extremely sad and angry mood.
Many people turned their backs and silently wiped away tears.
Qiao Huaping never expected that such an old incident would be brought up.
It's hard to say whether it's a coincidence or not.
But, in the end, a human life was involved.
Now, with Ajin's mother's words, there was no need for her to call Mei Qinghuang up, so that the villagers could intuitively feel how cruel Gao was to deal with such a child.
The crowd was so excited that the Cao family members shrank back and did not dare to say anything.
The village chief interrogated Mr. Gao very seriously in public.
But after all, it was an old story with no evidence. In addition, Gao denied it and refused to let go of anything, so in the end it was dropped.
——That’s what he said, but the way Ah Jin looked at Mr. Gao, it was obvious that he had already concluded that this was done by Mr. Gao.
"Village Chief, a vicious person like Mr. Gao can no longer stay in our village!" A Jin's mother suddenly spoke in a hoarse voice.
As soon as these words came out, many villagers echoed.
Escape is already exhausting, but it would be too much of a torment to worry about whether Mr. Gao would harm his child.
The village chief originally had this intention.
However, Mrs. Gao is the daughter-in-law of the Cao family. The Cao family does not have a large number of people, but including Gao's parents-in-law above her, her brother-in-law's family below her, and her unmarried sister-in-law, there are about ten people in total.
The village chief looked at the Cao family.
Old Man Cao's face twitched.
To be honest, he has lived for more than forty years, and today is the most embarrassing day!
He wiped his face, without even looking at his eldest son, and said in a hoarse voice: "Our Cao family has such a poisonous woman, which is unfortunate for our family. If the village chief expels the Gao family, I have no objection and can directly make the decision for my son.
, divorced Mr. Gao. But..."
He glanced at his eldest grandson Cao Hongchang, who had always had a gloomy face, gritted his teeth and said dumbly, "Village Chief, we are fleeing from famine right now. If we divorce the Gao family and expel the Gao family from the village, it will be equivalent to letting the Gao family
Go to hell!"
The village chief was silent.
Indeed, not everyone is as ruthless as Mr. Gao, and no one wants to take a life for no apparent reason.
The villagers also fell silent.
Only Ajin's mother sneered: "Gao's life is life, isn't my Ah Jin's life not life?"
The village chief sighed: "But we have no evidence that Ajin's death is related to the Gao family. Even when the government handles cases, they also pay attention to evidence, right? Wife Yan Bai, I know you are feeling bitter, but we also have to do this.
Pay attention to one piece of evidence.”
Ah Jin gritted his teeth and fell silent.
The bonfire was burning brightly, but the look on Ajin's face was as cold as ice.
Finally, after discussion, the village came up with a tentative plan.
First, let the Gao family follow the villagers, and the Cao family will be responsible for guarding it. If the Gao family causes any trouble again, the Gao family and the Cao family will be expelled from the village to escape the famine - when they get to the next village or town, there are
Wherever there are people, let Gao stay and make a living on his own.
There was no other solution to this plan, and even Ajin’s mother didn’t say a word.
But——the Zhou family quit.
Zhou Xu grabbed Zhou Xiaoqing's arm and walked out of the crowd watching the excitement from behind.
She raised her voice and said: "This matter is not over yet. I'm talking about the Cao family. When Mrs. Gao did bad things before, she was still your Cao family's daughter-in-law. Look, look, she stung my granddaughter like this."
, just think about it?"
Although Zhou Xu was older, she was an adult after all, and her strength was much greater than that of a child. She grabbed Zhou Xiaoqing's arm, causing the child's thin body to stagger.
Song Yuelan was so distressed that she wanted to step forward to stop her mother-in-law, but Mrs. Zhou Xu was tougher, glared at her, and quickly whispered to the other two daughters-in-law: "Hold her down, I will take this damn girl to
Doing business!"
The daughters-in-law of the other two bedrooms had eyes shining, and they kept saying "Sister-in-law, don't worry," but they directly held Song Yuelan away one by one.
Zhou Xiaoqing could only be dragged into the middle of the crowd by Zhou Xu.
Zhou Xu pushed Zhou Xiaoqing and asked her to stand closer to the bonfire.
Although Qiao Huaping applied the antidote holy cream alkali flower to her, the big swollen bumps on her face had not completely subsided. There were bumps here and there on her small face, which looked a bit scary.
Mrs. Zhou Xu raised her voice: "Look, everyone, what happened to my girl after she was stung?! I don't want to say anything else. The child has suffered such a big crime. The Cao family has to come up with something no matter what. Let me give it to her."
Can my granddaughter give it a touch-up?"
The Cao family couldn't stand being pointed at by the villagers. Old man Cao couldn't help wiping his face again and gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, I still have some goose eggs at home. I'll get some to make up for the children later."
repair."
Mrs. Zhou Xu said "Ouch": "That's it?" She picked up Zhou Xiaoqing's arm and said, "Look, your good daughter-in-law caused my granddaughter to be stung so many times! If it weren't for my Zhou family
It’s a blessed place, you know that this dead girl almost couldn’t be saved, right?!”
Zhou Xiaoqing stood by the campfire a little awkwardly, with his head lowered, listening to Mrs. Zhou Xu treat her as a bargaining chip, bargaining with others.
In the end, the matter was settled with the Cao family accompanying them with ten goose eggs.
Mrs. Zhou Xu smiled brightly and pushed Zhou Xiaoqing: "This damn girl is in charge of something."
Zhou Xiaoqing almost cried.
Song Yuelan finally broke free from the clutches of her two sisters-in-law, rushed over, hugged Zhou Xiaoqing in her arms, and patted her back gently: "Okay, okay, Xiaoqing, it's okay, let's
never mind."
Zhou Xiaoqing buried his head in Song Yuelan's arms, twitching and twitching.
The village chief glanced at Old Man Cao, who was turning blue, and reminded: "...Zhou Xiaoqing is not the only one who was stung. Remember to send some to the Mei family as well."
Old Man Cao felt weak at his feet, but he still gritted his teeth and agreed.
Seeing that nothing happened, Qiao Huaping went to look for some of his boys nearby.
As a result, Mei Qinghuang's eyes turned red, she turned her head away, and ignored Qiao Huaping at all.
Qiao Huaping was very puzzled: "What happened before?"
Mei Qingyu, on the other hand, understands his stupid brother who is stubborn.
He said slowly: "You told the third brother earlier to let him go up when you call him... Do you also want to use the third brother's injury to blackmail the Cao family?"
Although the compensation from the Cao family was what their victims deserved, the scene where Zhou Xiaoqing was treated as a bargaining chip by the Zhou Xu family and used to bargain with Old Man Cao still made them feel uncomfortable.
It's like... Zhou Xiaoqing is an object.
"Who are you looking down on?" Qiao Huaping frowned and denied it, "If I want to knock the Cao family off, do I need your brother to step in?"
