Chapter 40: Just Give Me Fifty Taels



The old lady and her family, who originally wanted to make a fuss, didn't dare to say a word.

The couple also wondered if they really hadn't noticed their mother's daily habits.

But no matter what, it was impossible for them to go to the yamen to have a coroner perform an autopsy.

“No, we’re not going!

They were the ones who beat my mother to death. They paid us fifty taels as compensation, and we won't make a fuss about it.

We are fellow villagers, so I don’t want to make it look too ugly.

If they really go to the government office, they will definitely pay with their lives."

The old woman's daughter-in-law's words made the Meng family laugh out of anger.

"Your abacus beads are flying all over my face.

Look carefully, do you think our family is so stupid and easy to blackmail?"

Ji couldn't help it, and now his true self is exposed. His face is so ugly.

Even the police officers were speechless.

"I didn't beat her to death. Your mother is still alive and breathing, yet you haven't tried to save her.

“You are simply dreaming!

You have to give this money even if you don’t want to!

Everyone saw that it was because you hit my mother that she died!"

Seeing this, the officer sternly shouted, "Hurry up!

How your mother died will soon be revealed.

The county magistrate will certainly not ignore what happens at that time.

If you continue to make trouble, I will not be polite with the whip in my hand!"

Seeing that the officers were serious, the two men did not dare to make trouble anymore, but they did not dare to enter the yamen.

What if my mother really wasn’t beaten to death?

The couple walked and thought of a solution, and suddenly they both came up with the same idea.

The man carried his dying mother on his back, and his wife went into the crowd to find Qiao Qinglu.

Doesn’t Qiao Qinglu have a ruby ​​headpiece? She must have a lot of silver. Their mother can’t die in vain!

Qiao Qinglu was startled when the woman grabbed her arm.
