"Who are you?" Huang Ziyuan looked at the door with his red and swollen eyes, his voice hoarse.
Liu Changshan looked at the coffin placed on the floor of the outer room and guessed that this was the young man who had died.
Looking at Huang Ziyuan's old face and eyes full of grief, and thinking about the fact that the elderly have to send off the young, it is indeed the greatest sorrow in life.
Liu Changshan couldn't help feeling a trace of sympathy in his heart.
He asked the others to stand at the door and not go in, and he handed the torch in his hand to others before stepping in.
He first bowed slightly to the coffin, which was also a tribute to the deceased, and then turned to Huang Ziyuan and said, "Brother, the dead cannot be resurrected, please accept my condolences."
Huang Ziyuan's nose felt sore again after hearing these words, and the tears he had just swallowed filled his eyes again.
My condolences?
How can he mourn?
Suppressing the bitterness in his heart, Huang Ziyuan asked again: "Who are you?"
Liu Changshan stood up straight and glanced around the room. He didn't see anyone from the Shen family, so he said to Huang Ziyuan, "I'm the head of Dongliang Village. You...the Shen family you detained are from our village."
When Huang Ziyuan heard that it was the head of Dongliang Village, he thought that the person in front of him was here to ask for someone on behalf of the Shen family, and he immediately glared at him: "What are you doing here? I tell you, I am not done with the Shen family on this matter."
"After I have dealt with my son's funeral, I will definitely ask the Shen family to give my son justice."
Seeing that Huang Ziyuan was about to get angry, Liu Changshan quickly raised his hand to interrupt him: "Brother, don't be angry first. We are not here for the Shen family. If they do something immoral, it is their own business. I don't care."
"I came here today to bring back our village's donkey. The Shen family told me this morning that they were going to visit relatives, so I lent him the village's donkey."
"Whatever grudge you have, it's none of the donkey's business, right?"
Just now when he was at the door of Huang's house, Liu Changshan found a donkey cart parked in the yard, but did not see the donkey.
This made him very worried. He wondered if the Huang family had done anything to the donkey.
Liu Changshan went on to say: "We are all farmers all year round, and we all know the importance of a donkey to a village. It's almost spring and we're going to plant crops. How can we do without a donkey?"
"To be honest, if we can't bring the donkey back today, our village will be in an uproar. I can't bear this responsibility!"
Don't be fooled by Liu Changshan's soft words, he looks like he has no way to deal with his own villagers.
But he was also secretly warning Huang Ziyuan to return the donkey to them as soon as possible. If he didn't, it would no longer be their business.
Of course Huang Ziyuan is not stupid.
How could I not hear the hidden meaning behind Liu Changshan's words?
Under normal circumstances, no matter how great the hatred was, it would not involve cows and donkeys, which were extremely important livestock in the village.
Because once something goes wrong with these livestock, it may lead to group fights between the two villages, and even bloodshed and death.
So if no one wants to make a mortal enemy with other villages, no one will have any bad ideas about livestock.
But right now Huang Ziyuan and his wife are in deep grief over the loss of their son, so they are not as calm as usual.
Huang Ziyuan's wife, who was leaning against the coffin, cried out in grief: "Let the Shen family return my son's life, and I will return your donkey, otherwise forget it! Wuuuuu~~~"
Liu Changshan didn't want to argue with the old woman, so he just stared at Huang Ziyuan to see what he was going to do.
Huang Ziyuan lowered his head and looked at the ground, struggling internally.
His hatred for the Shen family made him want to fight to the death with the people of Dongliang Village.
Not to mention the donkey, he even wanted to kill those people from the Shen family and bury them with his son.
But reason told him that he couldn't do that.
If he really doesn't return the donkey to Dongliang Village, the people of Dongliang Village will never let it go, and the two villages will then fight.
Although he felt that he was in the right, as the chief of Dongliang Village said, if the donkey was really gone, everyone in Donglian Village would have to come looking for him.
By then, how many people in Lamagou will be able to help him?
Will the village chief become an enemy of the people of Dongliang Village for his own sake?
Huang Ziyuan felt very confused.
At the same time, it's extremely annoying.
Why can’t the people of Dongliang Village wait until their son’s funeral is over before coming?
Does he have to force him when his son hasn't even been buried yet?
Are you bullying them from such a distance because you see that the old couple will have no one to rely on after they die?
The more Huang Ziyuan thought about it, the more upset he felt, and the more upset he felt, the more he became obsessed with it.
Putting all these things together, he felt that the Dongliang Village was going too far. They were unwilling to wait even for one night and insisted on forcing him to give an answer in person in front of his son's dead body.
In Huang Ziyuan's eyes, the current Liu Changshan is the aggressive Huang Shiren.
He raised his eyelids and looked at Liu Changshan viciously: "Just because you said a few words, you want to take the donkey away? My son was killed by the Shen family in vain?"
Liu Changshan frowned; the thing he was most worried about happened.
The Huang family took their anger out on the donkey, and this matter is really difficult to deal with.
Liu Changshan thought for a moment and said to Huang Ziyuan, "I really don't know much about the grudge between you two. Otherwise, let the Shen family come out and tell me the situation in person, so that I can have an idea."
Before, Liu Changshan said that he didn’t care whether the Shen family lived or died, but in fact, he was on the side of the villagers in his own village.
The reason I said that was because I wanted to get the donkey back first.
If the other party doesn't have any evidence in their hands, then everything will be easy to deal with later.
Huang Ziyuan stared at Liu Changshan for a long time before he walked to the utility room in the yard, opened the door, and raised his chin towards Liu Changshan: "I'm here, ask anything you want!"
Liu Changshan came to the door and looked inside. It was dark inside and he could only see a few black shadows on the ground.
He called out tentatively, "Get rich?"
At this time, Old Man Shen had fainted from the pain and of course could not answer Liu Changshan.
But Shen Qiushu was awake. When he heard the voice, he shouted in disbelief: "Is it the village chief? I am Qiushu, I am Qiushu, help, Uncle Liu, help, help me!!!"
Chen Qiushu struggled to move towards the door, crying out in pain.
Tears flowed down his cheeks, his nose felt sore, and Shen Qiushu couldn't help crying.
Woo woo woo~~~~
Someone finally came from the village, and he thought he was going to die in this mountain valley!
Liu Changshan also recognized that it was the third son of the Shen family. He continued to ask, "Where is your father? Let your father answer."
Chen Qiushu quickly turned around and called Old Man Shen: "Dad... Dad... Wake up, the village chief is here to save us? Wake up quickly..."
