Caojia Village was much quieter than usual on this day, like the calm before a storm, and people were a little uneasy.

The road repairman in the village had breakfast early in the morning and went to repair the road with everyone. Cao Gui, who had come to repair the road with us in the past, did not show up today. Everyone knew about Cao Gui's family affairs, and they could not hide their contempt for him.

However, this matter was related to the village chief's family, and the brothers in the village gathered together to work, and discussed this matter in a low voice, not daring to speak loudly.

In a dark room without light, a big silly man in a bright red wedding dress was clamoring for a wife to be married. He pulled his mother's clothes and kept saying, "Mother, mother, wife, wife..."

"Marry... marry, marry... marry, marry, marry..." His mouth was wide open, saliva flowed from the corners of his mouth, and his chest was wet.

Cao couldn't help laughing again, lovingly wiped the saliva with a handkerchief, coaxed his boy, and said, "Okay, okay, mother will find you another wife."

But when he turned around, his eyes shot out a vicious light. That damn bitch, he didn't enjoy such a good blessing, but chose to commit suicide!

Now that she is dead, he has to find a boy to be his son's wife!

But not long after, when the fool found out that his wife who was locked in the small room was missing, he started crying and even his mother tried to comfort him, he would not listen. He smashed the incense burner, tables and chairs in the room, and cried for a wife and wanted to get married.

Cao was very troubled and repeatedly promised, "My mother will find you a new wife."

But he didn't know that he had no chance.

At noon, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and a gust of wind blew. A group of yamen runners entered the village, breaking the unusual silence of this calendar.

"Get out of the way..."

"Where is Cao Gui's home?" The yamen runner came in and grabbed the old man's collar and asked.

"Go, go this way..." The old man pointed to a road while shaking.

"Bang!" The tightly closed door was violently knocked open.

The man who had done something wrong in the house was startled. Seeing the yamen runners with big knives breaking into his house, Wang's face turned pale with fear. She asked with a trembling voice, "You, what are you doing in my house?"

"Are you Cao Gui?"

"What do you want to do with my husband?"

"Heh, he has committed a crime."

"Who is Wang? Are you Cao?"

"Hey, let me go, why are you arresting me, why are you arresting my husband..."

"Catch them!"

"Catch them all, take them away!"

A group of yamen runners rushed in, arrested people and left without saying a word. When being dragged away, Wang shouted "Master, it's unfair..." The two boys behind him hid far away and did not dare to get close.

Those who were watching the excitement outside saw Cao Gui and Wang being taken away. Someone spat on the ground and cursed, "Fuck you, you evil stepmother, this is retribution from heaven."

The yamen runners rushed into the village chief's house to arrest people, and were almost hurt by the big fool. Several people rushed up to catch the big fool and tied him up. "Shut his mouth for me!" The leading yamen runner shouted when he saw that the fool was still opening his mouth to bite people.

"What are you doing arresting my son?" Seeing that someone had arrested her son, Cao came forward to try to snatch him back.

"Catch him!"

What people didn't expect was that the village chief and Cao were both arrested and taken away together, and the foolish boy in his family was also kidnapped. When he was arrested, he was still wearing a bright red suit.

When the people in the village saw the bright red clothes on the fool, they all thought of the brother who died today.

"What a sin!"

A burly man came over and asked loudly, "What are you doing?"

The leading yamen officer waved the big knife in his hand and said, "The officials are doing their work. Anyone who dares to interfere with the officials' work will be taken back together."

The elders who rushed over watched the yamen officers take the man away. The elders of the Cao family knew what happened in the village today. His father and mother did not seek justice for the dead brother. Besides, this matter was related to the village chief, so they all kept silent and thought that the matter was over.

They all thought that this was just a small matter in their village, and that their own village affairs should be handled by their own villagers. They never thought that whoever reported it to the authorities would come and arrest people.

At this time, Li Zheng stepped out to comfort everyone. Standing next to Li Zheng was Cao Silang, and Cao Gang, who looked righteous, "…Everyone in Caojia Village is a villager of our Caojia Village. This person died inexplicably, and we should give justice to the deceased. The authorities came to arrest people, and the matter will be decided by the master." Li Zheng did not make a final judgment on what Cao Gui and Wang, the village chief, and Cao from his family did, but pushed the matter to the county master.

But justice is in the heart of the people, and those who understand in their hearts have their own judgment.

Cao Xiangnan, who had stabbed Cao Gui in the back, said in a serious tone, "Grandpa is our parent official, and he should make the decision for us. Otherwise, if someone dies in an unclear manner in the future, can we just ignore it? As if nothing happened?"

Everyone knows what happened in the village today. The death of Cao Gui's eldest brother and his stepmother, as well as the village chief, are probably all related. If it weren't for the connivance of Cao Gui's father, how could the stepmother abuse the son left by his deceased ex-wife, and now sell the person to the village chief's family to be the wife of his idiot. Didn't you see that the idiot was still wearing a bright red groom's suit when he was taken out just now?

Now that the person is dead, both sides are silent. Even if everyone knows what happened, no one stands up to seek justice for the dead brother.

Cao Jia Silang was right. Otherwise, if someone died in the future, would they just let it go? As if nothing had happened? This resonated with everyone, and everyone agreed.

"Great, great Cao Gaozhi!" The elders who heard the news came over, and they couldn't help but suspect that Li Zheng had hired someone to capture the village chief.

In the mansion of the county magistrate, the county magistrate took a cup of tea from the servant's hand and personally presented it to the old man who was several levels higher than him and was sitting in the upper seat. His face, which was so fat that no nose or eyes could be seen, forced an ugly smile and said, "Sir, please have some tea."

"Yes." The bearded Lord Wang took the tea, took a sip, casually pointed to the seat next to him, and said, "Sit down." He glanced at the fat body that could not even fit on the chair. It was unknown how much of the people's money had been extorted to eat like this.

"Yes." The county magistrate sat down, took a deep breath, and wiped the sweat on his forehead due to nervousness. How could he not know that there was such a high-ranking official hidden in Caojia Village?

"Do you know what to do about this?" asked Wang Daye.

"Yes, I know." The county magistrate wiped his sweat and said.

"Oh, what do you want to do?" Wang Daye glared with his big eyes, and asked in a dignified manner.

"Just, just, give each of you thirty strokes of the cane first."

"Well." It was barely acceptable.

"After further interrogation, he will be convicted and executed."

"Puff..." Wang Dahu spurted out the tea in his mouth. He looked at the stupid county magistrate and found that he was quite cute because of his fat body. He waved his hand and said, "Come here."

"Yes." The county magistrate listened to him humbly, and then nodded "hmmmm" continuously.

After sending the man out of the mansion, he exhaled deeply and cried. He just wanted to be a small county magistrate who could make a little money. He didn't want to be a good official. Aren't you making things difficult for me? It has been many years since he has made a proper judgment.

The drums of "dong dong dong..." sounded, and the county magistrate in his official uniform rushed forward. "As a father, Cao Gui allowed Ji Amu to abuse the child left by his ex-wife. This is heartless and unworthy of being a father. Wang is cruel and merciless. For many years, she beat and scolded the deceased Cao Wenchun. Now she sold him to Cao and forced him to death."

"Cao Agen, as the head of the village, protected Cao from doing such a heinous thing..." As the head of the village, Li Zheng knelt on the ground to seek justice for the dead little brother. He sued Cao Gui and Wang, the village chief and Cao in court.

In court, Wang and Cao accused each other, both trying to clear themselves of the matter, but this also proved that they bought and sold the man and forced him to death.

The village chief, who had been dominating the village for many years, now knelt and lay down trembling.

"Bang!" The wooden sticks in the hall slapped, and the county lord's eyes widened. "Shut up, are you all pretending that I don't exist?" "Come on, drag them down and give each of them thirty big boards..."

"Pa pa pa pa...

" "Grandpa, I'm innocent..."

"Spare my life, Grandpa..."

Many people came to Caojia Village to watch the excitement. The boards in the hands of the yamen runners were clapping loudly, and those who listened outside felt pain. But many people also felt happy.

From then on, Li Zheng's upright image left a deep impression in the hearts of the villagers, and they also regarded Li Zheng as their support. Caojia Village is no longer the place where the village chief and the elders have the final say. They still have Li Zheng who can speak for them, and the county lord who can make decisions for them.

The fool in the court wanted to pounce and bite the yamen runner. His ferocious look was like that of an untamed wolf. How could such a fool be a good man to marry? Cao and Wang forced a good boy to death!

After the latter beat him, he was not let go and was imprisoned by the county magistrate.

"What should we do?" The elders of the clan rushed over and saw the village chief being taken away.

Everyone returned to Caojia Village from the town. Some elders in the village who knew about this matter dared not speak to Li Zheng and glared at him. However, some elders had always had a good relationship with Li Zheng and knew that the village chief was wrong. Now someone has been killed in the village chief's family

, and now he has been arrested by the county magistrate. I don't know if he can come back. Even if he could come back, I'm afraid that Cao Ageng, the village chief, would not be able to continue to be the village chief of Caojia Village in the future.

Therefore, some people proposed to change the village chief.
