Chapter 118: The Panicked Villagers
"That woman is a bit of a witch. My eldest brother told me that she is not a decent person." Zhao Yue felt helpless, but fortunately Xia Xia did not despise him!
In order for the eldest brother to separate from the family, he had to bring the people back and turn their peaceful life upside down. Then the two brothers separated from the family and never had anything to do with them again.
My eldest brother is too foolishly filial. If we don't formally separate the family, we will be controlled by them for the rest of our lives.
"From what you said, your elder brother is pretty good to you?"
"Well, I was brought up by my eldest brother. As far as I can remember, he was the only one who took care of me. Later, my younger brothers and sisters were born, and my eldest brother was old enough to work in the fields, so he no longer had to take care of them."
"So you raised your brothers and sisters?"
"No, my grandma was at my house at the time and she was in charge of taking care of me."
"What about you?"
"Washing clothes, collecting firewood, there was always a lot of work to do every day. I didn't have enough to eat at that time, so I sometimes worked for others to earn some food."
"You haven't been to school?" Su Jinxia's understanding of the Zhao family deepened. This was too harsh.
"No, when I was young, I would eavesdrop at the door of the school classroom if I had time. Later, the teachers found me and wanted to look for my parents. I knelt down and begged them not to look for me. Later, they allowed me to listen to the class outside the classroom, and in this way, I also learned some characters.
When I turned 15, the army came to recruit soldiers and told me that if I succeeded, I would be given 50 kilograms of food, so they signed me up. Now I am very glad that they signed me up, otherwise I would not have seen the wider world, and I might still be working in the fields or working in a slaughterhouse with my older brother. ”
Su Jinxia felt the same way because she was not favored at home either, but Xiao Ying treated her well on the surface and that was why she let her go to school.
Holding his hand tightly, "It's all in the past, it will be fine."
"Yeah, everything will be fine."
The woman's hand was very soft and he held it tightly.
…
Tai Ling Village.
The police station personnel rode bicycles to the village and went directly to the home of the village chief Niu Fugui. They stood at the door and looked inside.
Seeing a lot of people in the yard, he pressed the bell.
When everyone saw the police coming, their hearts instantly rose to their throats.
Niu Dali took a strong young man from the village out, saying he was going to do something. He was gone for a whole day and a night, and there was no sign of him coming back. How could their parents not be worried?
So we gathered at the village chief's house early in the morning, wanting to know what was going on.
Niu Fugui knew something was wrong and came to the door under pressure.
"I wonder what's up, comrade?"
"It's like this. Niu Dali from your village led some people to cause trouble and we caught them. About ten people were detained and another ten were sent to the hospital. The director asked me to come over and tell you to take money to the hospital and pay it first, otherwise the hospital won't release you." Tang Hai said politely. He was so amazed to see the changes on the villagers' faces that he almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
Director Ma asked him to come here specifically to vent Sister Xia’s anger!
"Village chief! This is terrible! What on earth did they do?" the old lady shouted loudly, "My grandson is only 19 years old. Why did he go to cause trouble? What kind of crime is that?"
Niu Fugui wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve. He could only ask the police, "What did they do? Is it serious?"
"You'll know what they did specifically if you ask them. Anyway, it cost a lot of money. You all should pool your money together and go to the hospital! If you don't go to the hospital, those people won't be able to come back. Don't say I didn't tell you!" After saying this, Tang Hai got on his bicycle and rode away without waiting for their answer.
I rode about ten meters before I couldn't help laughing out loud.
Su Jinxia should be asked to come over and take a look. The expressions on these people's faces are so funny. Regardless of whether they are ignorant or not, crime is crime. Even if not all of them can go to jail, they must receive the punishment they deserve.
Niu Fugui was surrounded by the villagers again. Listening to their chatter, he wished he could dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it.
Just then, his arm was grabbed, and he saw that it was his own daughter-in-law.
"Stop making trouble!"
"Master, don't forget that our son also went with them. They only said that someone was injured, but we don't know who was injured. What if it was our son?" The village chief's wife kept chattering, "This is all Niu Dali's fault. In order to find a wife for his son, he is leading us to death!"
Only then did they understand that Niu Dali was trying to find a wife for his stupid son.
"Tell me clearly what they did!"
"If you don't explain clearly, we won't leave. They also ask us to pay. Where will the money come from? My family doesn't have that much money!"
"Whose family is rich? My two sons followed him. The eldest son will get married next month. What has he done? If he really goes to jail, his wife will not run away!"
"What a sin! This is a sin!"
Niu Fugui could only stretch out his hands, "Okay, everyone, stop making a fuss. The money issue will be handled by the public account for the time being. You guys discuss who will go to the hospital. I have to go and see what's going on so I can know how to solve it.
You can't force me to do such a big thing. I'm just the village chief. I didn't ask him to do this!"
People breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that the money would be paid through public accounting and they would not have to pay out of their own pockets.
After all, he just said he was injured, and didn't say anyone was killed. I guessed in my heart that he was just beaten up.
They all hated Niu Dali. If anything happened to their children, they would hire someone to tear down his house!
Tang Hai came to Xiao's house at this time and saw someone coughing in the yard.
Xiao Guoqiang had hardly slept all night. He was sweeping the floor with a broom in his hand. When he saw the police coming, the broom fell to the ground.
He knew that something had happened, and it was a big one, otherwise the police would not have come.
"What's the matter, comrade?"
"Are you Xiao Ying's father?" Tang Hai asked formally, "This is her home, right?"
"Yes, I'm her father." Xiao Guoqiang walked over step by step. "My daughter and granddaughter went out with the secretary yesterday. Did they get into any big trouble?"
"The mother and daughter were struck by lightning and are now in the hospital. You are needed to send money. Our police station is only responsible for sending people there." Tang Hai said and got on his bicycle, "I've brought them here. Hurry to the hospital!"
Then he rode away. Anyway, his mission was completed. As for how these people made trouble, it was none of his business. This quiet little mountain village was destined to be no longer peaceful today!
