Chapter 113 Want to blackmail? Wrong idea!
"General He, please wait a moment, I'll go take care of it!"
The old man gave some instructions and hurried out.
He Xiong didn't care and tentatively stepped forward to feed the big black horse a handful of grass. Unfortunately, the big black horse sneezed and didn't eat it at all.
He Xiong glared at him angrily and cursed in a low voice, "You heartless thing! I was the one who delivered you when you were born, otherwise you would have frozen to death on the grassland! Now that you've found a new owner, you're so ungrateful!"
The dark horse raised his chin proudly, looking like a scumbag who would take everything and refuse to admit his mistakes.
He Xiong gritted his teeth, after all he couldn't be on the same level as Ma.
Zhuzhu hugged Zhimaqiu and giggled non-stop, then hugged the big black horse's neck, looking very intimate, and said in a baby voice, "Uncle General, don't scold the horse, it's very well behaved!"
"Yes, yes, just be good!" He Xiong coughed twice and secretly glared at the big black horse, who without hesitation threw broken grass all over him, even spitting at him...
Outside the yard, there were twenty or thirty people from Zhangjia Village, including Tai Jicang's wife and children, even his father-in-law, uncle, etc., as well as Village Chief Zhang, Zhang Tieniu and his son, and several men from the village.
Zhang Guihua threw herself on Tai Jicang's body and cried until she almost fainted. The little girl in the family was too young to know what had happened. She pulled her mother's sleeve in a daze and couldn't cry.
"Cangzi, what happened to you? Woohoo, didn't you go to the city to sell wild vegetables? How did you die?"
Tai Jicang's father-in-law Zhang Dashuan jumped up and down, cursing and beating his chest in pain. Outsiders who didn't know the truth might think he was his real father!
"How could my good son-in-law die in Taijia Village? You are too much of a bully! Report to the police, we must report to the police! We must avenge Ji Cang and seek justice!"
Village chief Zhang didn't know what to say, so he gave his son Tie Niu a look.
Zhang Tieniu immediately yelled at the top of his voice, "Uncle Dashuan, stop arguing and listen to what's going on first! What if there's some misunderstanding? Even if you're right, you'll be fined a few taels of silver if you go to the government office. Can you afford it?"
This makes sense, and the other people in Zhangjia Village also advised this.
"Yes, let's hear what's going on first!"
"No one would dare to kill someone like this in broad daylight!"
"There must be some misunderstanding!"
It has to be said that the Tai family's good reputation played a role at this time, and almost no one suspected that the Tai family had committed intentional homicide.
On the other side, Tai Jizong, who had gone to inform the Zhang family, was whispering to his father and third uncle, "I only said that Tai Jicang was dead, and nothing else."
Old Master Tai nodded and praised, "That's the right thing to do. It would be best if we come together and talk it through."
Master Tai San was still thinking about treating the border troops to mutton soup, and now he was impatient to listen to Zhang Dashuan's family making a fuss, so he stepped forward and explained the matter clearly.
Finally, he pointed at a few Jianghu men and the old men from Liujia Village and said, "These Jianghu men are here. If you don't believe me, you can ask them.
"If you still don't believe me, the elders from Liujia Village are here too. They saw Tai Jicang being stabbed to death. We're all from the same village, so we can't lie to each other."
Zhang Guihua was stunned by what she heard. She raised her hand and hit Tai Jicang angrily, "Wow, I told you not to cause trouble, why didn't you listen? Now your life is gone, how are we going to live in the future?"
Zhang Dashuan and his sons frowned. They originally thought that they could blackmail the Tai family and make a small fortune, but they didn't expect that Tai Jicang was asking for trouble!
What a false alarm, all the money was wasted!
Zhang Dashuan refused to accept this and shouted, stiffening his neck, "No matter what, Ji Cang died in your Taijia Village! You Tai family must give him a dignified burial and provide for his wife and children. Otherwise... otherwise I will report him to the authorities!"
Everyone in Taijia Village was furious when they heard this. Isn't this just being a rogue?
"Did you get kicked in the head by a donkey? Tai Jicang instigated the gang to cause trouble, and we almost got killed! We were lucky enough not to tear him into pieces, why should we have to bury him and support him with a wife and children?"
"Exactly, you're so shameless! Who gave you the guts? You think our Tai family is easy to bully, don't you?"
"Go ahead and report it to the police if you want. I also said that Tai Jicang was under the orders of your Zhang family to do evil to our Tai family!"
After their previous shared hatred for the enemy, the morale of the people in Taijia Village was high. How could they be frightened?
For every word Zhang Dashuan said, the Tai family had hundreds of words waiting for him.
Village chief Zhang actually knew clearly in his heart that Tai Jicang’s death was not the fault of the Tai family, he simply deserved it!
Zhang Dashuan and his family really wanted to avenge Tai Jicang and gain some benefits.
He was annoyed and didn't want to make enemies with Taijia Village because of this, so he shouted with a dark face.
"Alright, Dashuan! Tai Jicang deserved to die, no one is to blame. Hurry up and carry him away, don't embarrass yourself here!"
The other people in Zhangjia Village also felt ashamed and nodded.
Zhang Dashuan was unwilling to give in and wanted to make some trouble.
Village Chief Zhang said, "If your family doesn't obey, then you can do whatever you want. We are going back to the village!"
After saying that, Village Chief Zhang turned around and left with his son and the villagers.
"Hey, hey! Don't go!" Zhang Dashuan became anxious. Without the support of his clansmen, they were no match for the Tai family.
Didn’t you see the look in the Tai family’s eyes? They were about to skin them alive and pull out their tendons!
He had no other choice but to call his son to carry Tai Jicang away.
Zhang Guihua pulled her daughter along, crying and following behind, staggering as she walked.
Tai Jicang was expelled from the clan and was said to have married into the Zhang family, but this was never recognized.
