Chapter 36: Failed to do anything and got scolded



"Who are you scolding?"

It took the old woman a while to realize that Ji was scolding her.

I got furious!

The old woman rushed over, pointed at Ji's nose and cursed, "You little bitch..."

The three brothers Meng Shuchun, Meng Shuxia and Meng Shuqiu stood in front of their mother, staring at the old woman with unfriendly eyes.

"Hey, are you going to hit someone?

Officers, come and see, someone is trying to beat someone up here."

The old woman felt that she couldn't give in, but she was really scared, so she had to call the police.

I don't believe these people would dare to beat people in front of the police.

"Don't spit blood, old woman.

We were happily digging wild vegetables here, but you, a lazy old woman, not only stopped working, but also cursed us to eat these vegetables to death.

You are so vicious, aren’t you afraid that your tongue will be pulled out in hell?

It's fine if you just talk bad, but I haven't said anything to you yet, yet you are so shameless as to blame me first?

Whoever hit you, if anyone saw it, please testify for you.

But you can't slander others just by opening your mouth.

I even said you hit me."

Ji's eloquence was truly remarkable, and the old lady didn't know how to refute him for a moment.

"That's right, Auntie! Don't take him too seriously."

The old woman has a very dark luck on her head. It seems that she is going to be unlucky, very unlucky at that.

Judging from the looks of it, could she have had contact with Qiao Qinglu?

If that's the case, then she's courting death.]

Those who could hear Ji's true feelings wanted to persuade him not to argue with the old woman.

Then the officer said sternly, "You're all full and have nothing to do, so hurry on!"

The officers did not see the facts and did not want to criticize anyone individually. Seeing that they were still too idle, they set off.

By this time, most people have finished their meal.

Let’s hurry on the road. The Meng family is not afraid of hurrying on the road.

Now their family has an ox cart and a horse cart, and the family can basically take turns to rest for half a day every day without feeling tired.

But the old woman and her family suddenly looked depressed.

Their family has not yet bought an ox cart, so they can only walk.

The whole family had some complaints about the old woman's provocation.

But she is the eldest in the family, so she dares not speak out.

Seeing that those with ox-drawn carts were in the front, those who were walking fell behind, and the escort officers were the last.

The water ghost Qiao Qinglu covered her face with a veil and quietly moved to the side of the old woman.

The old woman was frightened at first, but after seeing Qiao Qinglu, who was rumored to be a disaster star, she didn't want to get too close to her.

Qiao Qinglu took out the meat pancake from her arms and chewed it beside her. She was so greedy for the old woman that she almost drooled.

"Auntie, have you had lunch?

If you haven’t eaten yet, I have a sesame bun with meat filling. You can have it.

I really can’t eat anymore. It’s been two days and if I don’t finish it, it’s going to go bad.”

"How can this be so embarrassing?"

The old woman said sorry but her hand was already reaching for the pancake.

Qiao Qinglu's eyes were full of contempt, but she pretended not to see it.

He stuffed the meat pancake into her hand with a smile on his face.

"What's there to be embarrassed about? We've been helping each other along the way.

It’s just that my feet and legs really hurt from walking for so long.

The Meng family is lucky.

I stole a horse from the robbers, and now I have both a horse-drawn carriage and an ox-drawn cart. I am so envious.

But didn’t other families also fight the robbers together? Why did only these two families get a horse?

Doesn’t this seem a bit unfair?”

Qiao Qinglu seemed to unintentionally tell the old woman some of the things that made her feel unbalanced.

But what she said served as a profound reminder to the old woman.

Why are they the only two families allowed to have carriages?

They also stole the carriage!

The county magistrate didn't take it back because he didn't know, right?

It must be like this!

What if the officers knew that the carriages of the Meng and Zhou families were stolen by robbers?

The more the old woman thought about it, the more excited she became.

She knew that even if she told Yingyi, Yingyi would take the carriage away and would not give it to her, so she was still happy!

Although his son only swung his knife once and missed, he still helped to beat the robbers.

Why doesn’t their family have a carriage?

So the old woman took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and walked up to the officer.

He recounted the whole story of the two carriages from the Meng and Zhou families.

After hearing this, the officers' first thought was that if they sold the two horses, they could get a lot of money.

But when I think about the time when I was in Wen County before, the county magistrate didn't say anything.

It is impossible for the county magistrate not to know where the carriages of those two families came from.

The county magistrate didn't say anything, which meant that he tacitly allowed the two families to own the carriage.

Besides, those two families would definitely not be willing to give them the carriage.

If they force it, conflict is inevitable.

What if the situation is not what the woman said?

That was the fault of their servants.

When the county magistrate sent them here, he specifically instructed them not to get into conflict with these people.

Unless they want to escape or commit rebellion.

The officers discussed the matter privately and decided to pretend they knew nothing about it.

The most important thing for them now is to get these people to their destination so that they can go home and celebrate the New Year.

Otherwise, it is very likely that they would be like the previous group of officials who were sent back to Taiyuan Prefecture and had a bad end.
