Old man Xia was so frightened by Wang Yousheng's shout that he shuddered. He swallowed subconsciously and was about to put the blame on Old Lady Xia.
If someone in their family had to take the blame, it would only be Old Mrs. Xia.
After all, he couldn't bear to leave himself, nor could he bear to leave Xia Zhiqiang...
"Shut up! Third brother, you are the victim, tell me what's going on." Huang Dewang scolded Old Man Xia, and when he turned to Xia Weian, his tone became a little softer.
Huang Dewang and Wang Yousheng have been managing Qingshan Village together for many years. Wang Yousheng is an honest person and has some tricks, but not many.
Huang Dewang is usually quiet and basically doesn't talk about anything, big or small. He seems not to be competitive, but in fact, any decision-making in the village must be approved by him before it can proceed.
Huang Dewang is an old fox. He rarely expresses his position publicly. This time, he spoke directly and gave the right to speak to Xia Weian.
Wang Yousheng was stunned for a moment, but he naturally would not lose face for Huang Dewang. He also knew that Huang Dewang was much smarter than him, and he must have a reason for doing this.
If your brain is not enough, then follow the smart people.
"Yes, Wei'an, you say."
Xia Weian said as he arranged the gauze on his wound, "My second brother said that my parents were dying and insisted that I go home."
"I know about this. Xia Laoer begged me to go with him. I saw him bring Wei'an back with my own eyes." Wang Yousheng said.
"After I came back, my parents said that they felt my second brother's temperament had changed drastically and he might have been contaminated by something unclean. My eldest brother has difficulty walking, so they asked me to help them perform a ritual to drive away the dirt from my second brother's body." Xia Weian said.
Old Man Xia: What the hell!
Old Mrs. Xia: Isn’t this just lying with open eyes?
Xia Zhiqiang: Why me? Isn’t it Xia Lao San? How did it become me?
"I've been educated in the village for so many years that I naturally know not to believe in feudal superstitions. When I disagreed, my parents beat me and even splashed black dog blood all over my second brother."
"By the way, my father still has talisman paper in his hand." Xia Weian pointed to Old Man Xia's pocket.
Wang Yousheng glanced at the militia captain, who immediately stepped forward and pulled the talisman paper out of Old Man Xia's pocket without waiting for his reaction.
Old Man Xia was completely stunned: That’s not right, the talisman paper is clearly with the old woman.
"I took advantage of the chaos and ran outside. My parents called my eldest and second sisters-in-law and the children at home to help subdue my second brother. Look, my second brother was almost beaten to death."
"I ran to call you for help." Xia Weian sighed as he spoke, "My arm had just healed a little, and after this, I have to go to the city hospital for treatment tomorrow."
"Weian, you've suffered." Huang Dewang patted Xia Weian's shoulder, then turned around and angrily scolded, "The village has organized so many study sessions to eliminate feudal superstitions, eliminate feudal superstitions! How dare you still do this!"
"Talisman paper, black dog blood, Xia Laonian, you really dare to do this!"
"No, no, it's not me, it's not me." Old Man Xia wanted to explain.
"It's not about who you are. The thing was found in your pocket. The evidence is irrefutable! You're still trying to argue. Are you trying to make the crime even more serious?"
Old man Xia was frightened by Huang Dewang's roar, his lips trembled, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.
"Oldest brother, second brother, you two actually followed suit and helped the evildoer. Look at what the second brother has been beaten into, and you still have the heart to do that!"
"Especially the second brother's family, do you want to be a widow?"
Wang Yousheng spoke at the right time.
"I'm not, I'm not, I don't..." Tian Guihua wanted to say that she didn't know it was her man, but who would believe her? How could a woman not even recognize her own man?
She couldn't even say that their target was Xia Weian. She had a hunch that if Xia Weian was dragged into this, things would be difficult to resolve.
Tian Guihua knew how to read people's expressions. She didn't want to make a big deal out of it. She just hugged Xia Zhiqiang and cried pitifully. She really looked like she was forced into a desperate situation.
"Since you two daughters-in-law have to listen to your parents-in-law, I will not hold you two responsible for this matter..." Wang Yousheng was about to say...
Then I heard Zhao Meilan screaming.
"Third brother, what are you talking about? Mom and Dad called you back. The black dog blood and talisman paper were prepared for you. Mom and Dad said that your temperament has changed so much that you must have been possessed by an evil spirit!"
"We're holding our weapons just to prevent you from running away. Dad said, if you run out, we'll just beat you up. As long as we can't kill you, we'll just leave you alive."
Zhao Meilan said angrily, she looked at Xia Weian, meaning, what right do you have to talk nonsense?
We came here just for you.
"Shut up!" Old man Xia yelled at Zhao Meilan. This idiot, was he born without a brain?
The captain was originally going to kick out both families!
As a result, she, she...
Xia Weian had a shocked look on his face, and his whole face looked extremely pale. He looked at Old Man Xia in disbelief.
"Dad, Mom, we're no longer related. Logically, your birth, old age, sickness, and death have nothing to do with me. But after all the treatment you've shown me and our family in the past, I still want to remember that sliver of family affection."
"Turns out, all these things you prepared were for me!"
Xia Weian's eyes were red. "I ask all the villagers present today, the team leader, and the village party secretary to bear witness for me. From now on, their Xia and my Xia are two Xias."
"No matter what happens to them, even if they die, I will never set foot here!"
"Also, all the younger generations of your Xia family have nothing to do with our family. From now on, even if you want to beg for food, please avoid my house."
After Xia Weian finished speaking, he said hello to Wang Yousheng and Huang Dewang, then turned and left.
It was already dark at this time. Under the light of the stars, everyone silently watched Xia Weian leave. His back looked particularly desolate and lonely, and he was trembling slightly.
Xia Weian: That’s right, it’s actually quite difficult to hold back laughter.
After Xia Weian left, the yard of the Xia family's old house fell into an eerie silence.
Huang Dewang coughed twice and said, "Since everyone is involved, let's just do what we have to do."
Huang Dewang looked at Wang Yousheng.
Wang Yousheng immediately understood Huang Dewang's meaning and ordered his men to take the four adults, Old Man Xia, Old Lady Xia, Zhao Meilan and Tian Guihua, to the brigade headquarters and lock them up.
I will go to a study class early tomorrow morning and study in depth for a month.
Xia Zhiqiang was seriously injured, so he had to stay at home to recuperate. We will make arrangements after he recovers.
"Okay, let's all go. If you don't sleep now, you won't be able to work tomorrow." Wang Yousheng shouted, and everyone went home.
He and Huang Dewang walked at the end.
Wang Yousheng lowered his voice and spoke...
