"This Ye Laizi is so unlucky! He might as well not have gotten married. Now, he has lost his life."
After putting everyone in the car, Lu Changdong said to the villagers, "This case may not be what everyone imagines.
“The case will be heard in court in five days, and everyone in the village is welcome to attend as an observer.
“In addition to this, we may need some relevant testimonies from the villagers.
“Next, my men will find a few villagers we need to question.
"I hope everyone can cooperate and tell the truth, and not speak nonsense or spread rumors.
"Anyone who dares to speak nonsense will be taken back today and sent to Shuntian Prefecture Prison to reflect on their actions."
After hearing what Lu Changdong said, the villagers who had been chattering non-stop immediately fell silent.
These gossips can be spread at any time, but if you are thrown into jail because of them, it would be too worthless.
Wang Guangping saw that the villagers were shocked by Lu Changdong's words, so he quickly came out and said, "Okay, now everyone who has nothing to do should go home.
"I'll take the officers over later to see who they want to question."
After asking all the questions that needed to be asked, Lu Changdong took several testimonies that had been fingerprinted and left Rongxi Village with the remaining men.
After all the officials had left, the villagers came out of their homes one by one and gathered under the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village to chat.
"The police just came to my house. Guess what? I heard that Ye Laizi wasn't killed by Xiao Huang at all. He was hit to death by that kid Lu Fei from behind!"
"No way? Lu Fei is usually a pretty good kid!"
The people next door to Ye Laizi's house hurriedly said, "The officials have also come to my house.
"You don't know, but this Ye Laizi usually beats his wife or his children at home.
"My house is next to his, and I can always hear ghosts howling and screaming from his house.
“Several times I couldn’t stand it anymore and wanted to intervene, but then I thought about how Ye Laizi was not a good person.
"I have elderly parents and young children at home, so I really don't dare to provoke him.
"I just told the police all this. I hope they can be lenient with Xiao Huang and Lu Fei."
"You all only know one side of the story," another person said, "I just overheard two officers talking outside.
"Guess what?"
"Hey, hurry up and tell me, don't keep me in suspense!"
"I heard them say that Lu Fei beat Ye Laizi because he wanted to bully Lu Hui.
"By the time Xiao Huang went in and realized something was wrong, Ye Laizi was already dead."
After hearing this, most of the villagers showed expressions of shock, and some could not help but look disgusted.
But there was still one stubborn young man who didn't react at all. He asked in confusion, "This isn't right. Ever since Xiao Huang got married, Ye Laizi has been beating her and the child.
“On the contrary, some time ago, someone from the clan came to warn Ye Laizi, and now he doesn’t dare to hit children anymore.
"Why didn't you resist when you were being beaten severely before, but now you're not fighting as much and you're beating people to death?"
After he said this, everyone else looked at each other, not knowing how to respond for a moment.
The young man's father blushed and pulled his son aside and whispered a few words to him.
"Fuck!" the young man cursed out loud instantly, "How can Ye Laizi be such a piece of shit!"
At this moment, someone in the crowd suddenly said, "Let's go to the trial in five days and plead for Xiao Huang and Lu Fei. I hope the official will show them leniency."
"Yes, that makes sense. Let's go together!"
"Okay, count me in, I'll go with you."
The villagers were very excited and soon reached a consensus that those who had cars would provide their cars, and those who didn't would provide their people, and they would go to the capital together to plead for Xiao Huang and Lu Fei.
Everyone chatted at the village entrance for a while before slowly dispersing and returning home.
At this time, the Ye family had followed Wang Guangping to the foot of the mountain to look at the residential land allocated to them.
"Boss, what do you think of this place?" Wang Guangping raised his hand and waved it in front of him, "If you want, this whole area can be yours.
“It’s just that the place is a bit too big, so we may have to give the village some compensation.
"Of course, if you don't want such a large piece, you don't have to pay extra if you order a smaller piece."
But when Boss Ye saw the large open space in front of him, his heart was already pounding with excitement.
To be honest, although life was hard when we were outside the Great Wall, the land was vast and the population was sparse, so every household had a spacious yard.
When we first returned to Rongxi Village, everyone was a little uncomfortable living there!
Now that we are building a new house, it naturally needs to be spacious and bright.
Wang Guangping had indeed found a good piece of land. Firstly, the terrain was relatively flat, and secondly, it was spacious enough.
This piece of land is backed by a mountain, and at the foot of the mountain there is a small stream flowing down from the mountain and straight into the river outside the village.
When the house is built, this stream can not only be used to draw water for the family and irrigate the vegetable garden, but also can be blocked on both sides to raise ducks and fish.
The more Boss Ye looked at it, the happier he became. He walked over and roughly measured the dimensions with his feet, then turned back and asked, "Second Brother, what do you think?"
Ye Lao Er nodded repeatedly and said, "Brother, I think it's pretty good.
"But can we settle it right now? Don't we have to wait until mom comes back and takes a look?"
