As soon as she saw Ma Yuzhu and the others coming out, Chen Xiuxiu immediately asked, "Who among you three brought Tianen to the mountains?"
Ma Yuzhu and the other two looked at so many people outside and suddenly felt a little guilty.
But they quickly denied it: "We didn't do it. It's none of our business."
"It's none of your business. Don't even think twice before telling a lie. Tell me the truth, or we'll go to the police station and settle the matter."
Chen Xiuxiu snorted and spoke without any mercy. In her heart, she had already made up her mind that they would take Song Tianen to the mountains.
Mrs. Tian was displeased when she saw this and glared at her: "What do you mean by that? It wasn't our child who did it, but you still want to blame yourself for it? You are such a grown-up, how can you treat a few children like this? Do you have any shame?"
"You dare to do it, but you're afraid of what I say? Anyway, I'm putting it this way. If they don't admit it today, then we'll go to the police station. I have to get to the bottom of this matter."
"What on earth did our kids do to offend you? You're so cruel that you came here in the middle of the night and scolded them like that. Don't you feel guilty, huh?"
"Captain, why don't you give us some justice? Is there anyone like the Song family who bullies others like this? Huh?"
Someone listening nearby also offered some advice: "Old family, if you have anything to say, just tell them clearly. Why go to the police station?"
"Yes, our captain is here. Are you still worried that you can't explain it clearly?"
"We're all here. If you have any questions, just tell us. Don't bother going to the police station in the middle of the night. It would be embarrassing if word gets out."
“.......”
At this moment, Feng Guizhi came out and said, "Everyone is right. My wife is not very sensible. We can solve the problems of our brigade behind closed doors. We won't go to the police station."
"But I also have to say that if it can be resolved properly, then I'm definitely willing to resolve it properly, but if not, then that's the only option left."
"Yes, yes, yes, Guizhi is still sensible. Don't worry, we are all here. If you have any problems in the Song family, please tell us and we will definitely solve them to your satisfaction."
Song Yuangang looked at Feng Guizhi and said, "Yes, if there is a problem, we should solve it. Let's first explain what the eldest daughter-in-law is talking about."
"Okay, then I'll ask first." Feng Gui
Zhi looked at Ma Yuzhu and the others, "You just said that Tianen's disappearance had nothing to do with you, right?"
Ma Yuzhu felt a little uneasy and shook his head: "No, it's none of our business."
"Okay, then let me ask you where you were at two or three in the afternoon. Tell me one by one."
Ma Yuzhu, Ma Laicai and the others thought that they were just collecting bird eggs in the mountains at that time, and it had nothing to do with Song Tianen's disappearance. They breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"We were collecting bird eggs on the north side of the mountain."
"Yes, we were just taking bird eggs." Ma Laicai said, and then added: "We didn't even see Song Tianen at that time."
Ma Yushan also said, "Take the bird eggs."
Feng Guizhi continued to ask, "So what did you do after collecting the bird eggs at the north end of the mountain?"
Ma Yuzhu thought about it, but felt his mind was in a mess. He was afraid that he would not know what to say when asked what he did at five or six o'clock. But now everyone in the team was staring at him and waiting for him to speak, so he said it before he had time to think about it.
"After we collected the bird eggs, we went to dig wild vegetables, and then we saw Song Yuanbao and the others."
After saying this, Ma Yuzhu suddenly came to his senses and quickly stopped talking. He was so scared that sweat broke out on his forehead.
Ma Laicai, who was standing next to him, was also startled, and then he quickly said, "Yes, at that time, at that time... at that time we saw Song Yuanbao and the others here, so we turned around and went in the other direction."
Ma Yushan didn't know what to say, so he just nodded in agreement.
"Is that so? In that case, you haven't seen Tian'en Yuanbao and the others since then?"
All three of them nodded quickly.
At this time, Feng Guizhi asked again: "So after you turned around and left, you went to Nantou?"
Ma Yuzhu thought about it in his mind. He was at the north end of the back mountain just now. Now he changed direction and it was the south end. He nodded in agreement again.
"Did you run into Erdan and the others when you were in Nantou? They went to Nantou today."
Erdan, whose name was called, scratched his head in the crowd. He didn’t go to Nantou today?
Ma Yuzhu, Ma Laicai and Ma Yushan all broke out in cold sweats when asked this question. They didn't know whether to say that they had encountered it or not.
But they didn't have much time to think at this moment, so they could only grit their teeth and nodded.
"I encountered
We saw them over there, but they didn’t see us.”
After saying this, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief that nothing was exposed.
Feng Guizhi nodded. At this time, Song Jianshe suddenly asked, "Did you see Tianen around three or four o'clock? He said he also went to Nantou to pick wild fruits at that time."
As soon as these words came out, Ma Yuzhu immediately frowned and refuted: "Impossible, Song Tianen has never been to the south end. He has been looking for those cicada shells in the north. I saw them all."
As soon as he opened his mouth, Ma Laicai beside him broke out in a cold sweat, and it was too late for him to cover his mouth.
Ma Yuzhu realized that he had let the cat out of the bag after he finished speaking, and his face turned pale.
Song Jianshe smiled and said, "So, how did you see Tian'en in the north when you were in the south?"
"Yes...I said...I said it wrong. I saw it before, no...not at three or four o'clock." Ma Yuzhu stiffened his neck and tried to explain himself.
Song Jianshe didn't dwell on this point and asked again, "Really? Then what were Erdan and the others doing when you saw them in Nantou?"
"They...they...were a bit far away at the time, so I couldn't see them clearly."
"Are you sure you saw Erdan? Could it be that you saw Tianen and the others instead of Erdan?"
Ma Yuzhu quickly said, "Impossible, it's... it's Erdan, I'm sure of it."
"Yes, I'm sure too." Ma Yushan also said.
Song Jianshe smiled again, then turned to look at the side. Chen Xiuxiu was standing next to Erdan and asked him:
"Erdan, tell us where you went this afternoon."
Erdan couldn't help but shrink to the side when so many people were watching him. He then said, "I...I was at the north end of the mountain this afternoon, picking up branches with my brother, Xiaohua, and the others. I didn't go to the south end."
After saying that, he added hurriedly, "If you don't believe me, you can ask my brother and Xiaohua."
Now, what else do you not understand? This statement is full of loopholes and you can tell who is lying just by listening.
Ma Yuzhu and the others were speechless. They hadn't expected that Feng Guizhi's words about Erdan being in Nantou were a lie. They had been cheated.
"Why don't you tell me now? Why did you take Tianen to the mountains and leave him alone there? What if something happens?" Chen Xiuxiu said coldly.
Face asked.
Shocked and frightened, the three Ma brothers finally couldn't hold back their tears. Ma Yushan was the first to cry, and seeing him cry, Ma Laicai and Ma Yuzhu also started crying.
For a moment, the whole area was filled with the cries of children, so loud that half of the team could hear them.
"Wuwuwu... We didn't do it on purpose, we just... just wanted to scare him... Wuwuwu..."
"Wuwuwuwu... We were wrong... We will never... dare to do it again..."
Baoya and Tianen were standing obediently beside Yang Yulan at this moment. Seeing them crying, Song Tianen loosened his clenched fists.
Baoya frowned. She now roughly understood that it was them who brought Song Tianen to the mountains, making everyone anxious, causing Song Bowen and Song Boyu to be scolded, and making her mother sad.
Moreover, Baoya thought of the dream she had before. If, if she had not found Tianen at that time, then...
When she thought of the scene that followed, tears welled up in her eyes again.
They are bad, so when Baoya sees them crying now, she doesn’t feel sorry for them at all.
Tian En saw Bao Ya crying and suddenly became nervous: "Little sister...sister, you...why are you crying?"
When Yang Yulan heard this, she quickly bent down and came closer to look at her, "What's wrong? Why are you crying?"
Baoya wiped her tears and whispered, "They are bad. Brother, it hurts."
Yang Yulan roughly understood what she meant, reached out and gently rubbed her little head, and said softly:
"Brother is back safely, Baoya can rest assured. Also, grandma will make sure those who bullied brother get back at him."
Baoya sniffed and nodded her head.
......
Chen Xiuxiu had lost all patience with Ma Yuzhu and the others crying. She pinched her waist and snorted coldly, "Stop crying. You won't be able to get over this if you keep crying. You have to tell me everything you need to say."
Mrs. Tian was furious. She cursed the Song family in her heart for being full of evil intentions and digging a hole for her grandson to jump into. Now that they had jumped out, she started to curse:
"You, the Song family, are so shameless. A group of adults are embarrassing a few children. What on earth do you want to do? Are you trying to force our family to death? Huh?"
"I think you're the ones trying to force us to death. Don't you understand what your grandson did? Why are you pretending to be confused? When they threw Tian'en into the mountains, why didn't they think of leaving a way for our family to survive? Huh?"
Chen Xiuxiu was not afraid at all and cursed back.
"Why are you trying to kill him? He's back safe and sound now, so why are you trying to make things so difficult for these kids? How old are they? How could they possibly know so much? Why are you leaving them no chance to survive? Who are you trying to scare?"
"Tian'en has returned safely, but what if something happens? Can your family afford the compensation?!" The more Chen Xiuxiu spoke, the angrier she became, especially when she saw how shameless Mrs. Tian was.
Oh, so if nothing happened, we're just going to let it go? The kids are young, so we're just going to let it go?
I was lucky to come back this time, but what if something goes wrong? Who would bear the consequences?
Mrs. Tian didn't care about that. She just cried and yelled, "They're trying to kill us. What's wrong with a child making a mistake? Whose child doesn't make mistakes? Even if they took the person to the mountain, they've found him now and nothing happened. Why do they still want to kill us?!"
"You, the Song family, just don't like our family and want to force us to death~!"
Although Chen Xiuxiu had made preparations long ago, she was still very angry at what Mrs. Tian said.
"Give it to me, everyone. Is it really necessary to make such a big fuss over a few kids' little fight? Huh?"
The people around him also tried to persuade him: "Yes, the Song family, since the people have returned safely, let's just forget about it. I guess they will learn their lesson after today and won't do it again next time."
"Children probably don't think too much about it. Let's just forget about it this time. There's nothing wrong with him anyway."
"Let their parents take good care of the child later. You must be tired of looking for the child so late at night. Just go back."
"......" A group of people came out to act as peacemakers and persuade the people from the Song family.
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Song family felt uncomfortable. But fortunately, they had anticipated this outcome before coming here, so after some preparation, they didn't feel too bad.
At this time, Yang Yulan took Tianen and Baoya a few steps forward, tears in her eyes:
"I'd like to ask everyone to think about how you would feel if your children or grandchildren were left alone in the mountains."
Her voice was not loud, but every word was heard clearly.
"None of us have ever been to that deep mountain, but everyone says it's dangerous up there. Yes, Tian En is now
He returned safely, but if we were a little less lucky and didn't find him in time, he would be alone in the mountains, with no light at all, unable to even see the road below. If something happened, wouldn't that mean Jianye and I would be killed again? "
After hearing her words, everyone fell silent. They thought to themselves that if their own children were staying up there, they would probably be worried sick too.
"We can't just let this go just because they're young. Otherwise, who knows if it will happen again? And if it does, who knows which child will be hurt."
As soon as these words were spoken, the hearts of the people around them trembled.
At this time, Song Yuangang also spoke: "The third elder is right. If you do something wrong, there must be punishment. Otherwise, they will think that doing such things is free of charge."
"The younger they are, the more they need to be made aware of what they cannot do."
He turned to look at Feng Guizhi: "Aunt Guizhi, how do you want to deal with this matter?"
Feng Guizhi glanced at Mrs. Tian and said, "We need an explanation for this matter. Tomorrow, let them come to our house and apologize to Tian'en. After that, I don't want anything. I just want to deduct one month's work points from her as compensation."
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Tian immediately shouted: "What are you talking about? It's just one month's work points, why don't you go and grab it!"
"You're dreaming! One month's work points, impossible!"
When the people around heard this, they all thought that Feng Guizhi's request was a bit too much. One month's work points? Wouldn't that mean a month's work would be in vain?
However, some people also thought that it would be possible for Mrs. Tian to delay going to work, or to work for only a short while each day, and get through the month.
Song Yuangang frowned and thought about it. Compared with Song Tianen's safety, one month's work points was not much. The main reason was that Mrs. Tian's son and daughter-in-law were both working, so her absence for a month would not have much impact.
That's right, Mrs. Tian would definitely not agree, and the people in the team might still think that the Song family is greedy.
Song Yuangang didn't speak immediately, and Feng Guizhi continued, "If you don't want this month's work points, just deduct last month's work points."
This way, Mrs. Tian won’t be able to get away with it.
"Feng Guizhi, I'm going to tear your mouth apart. Are you dreaming? Why do you want my work points?" Mrs. Tian's face was ferocious and she was about to rush towards Feng Guizhi.
.
Chen Xiuxiu and Sun Suyun quickly grabbed her from the left and right, and took the opportunity to pinch her a few times.
"Oh, you guys..."
Feng Guizhi ignored her, looked around at the people in the surrounding brigade, and continued, "The Song family doesn't want any of the work points that were deducted. We'll give them all to the brigade. When the time comes, the brigade leader will decide how much food each family gets."
The faces of the people around them changed a little. They had never expected Feng Guizhi to refuse these work points and hand them all over to the team. That way, no matter how much or how little, they would still get some food.
Who wouldn’t want this for free?
Those who originally thought that the Song family's demands were excessive have now changed their minds.
First of all, Ma Yuzhu and his men had taken Song Tianen deep into the mountains. Just like Yang Yulan had said, luckily nothing had happened. But if something happened, then... Furthermore, if they didn't teach him a lesson this time, there was no telling if it would be his family's turn next time.
The second thing is, who wouldn’t want these free work points and free food?
So, everyone changed their tune: "I think Guizhi is right. After all, it almost caused a disaster. This little compensation is not too much."
"That's right. We need to teach them a lesson so they won't make the same mistake again next time."
"Yes, I agree."
“…”
Now, even Song Yuangang was speechless. He agreed directly: "Okay, then all of Mrs. Tian's work points from last month will be used as a subsidy to the team."
Mrs. Tian wanted to yell again, but was immediately blocked by Chen Xiuxiu.
Song Yuangang was also afraid that she would make trouble again, so he warned Mrs. Tian: "This matter is settled. If there are other things, don't think about it when it comes to some selection."
Mrs. Tian suddenly stopped talking, like a chicken with its throat strangled.
After saying that, he added, "Don't forget to take them to the Song family to apologize tomorrow."
Song Yuangang was very tired from working so hard. Seeing that the matter was resolved, he waved his hand tiredly: "Let's go home and go to bed early. We have to go to work tomorrow."
Everyone dispersed one after another. After getting the desired result, the people of the Song family breathed a sigh of relief and slowly went home.
After this incident, both Ma Yuzhu and the other children, as well as Mrs. Tian, should learn their lesson. The Song family did not care about the work points, but just wanted to seek justice and let them know that their old family was wrong.
The Song family is not a soft persimmon that can be squeezed at will.
......
When she reached the door, Feng Guizhi suddenly remembered and said with a frown:
"When you came back just now, did you tell the third brother that you were safe?"
Yang Yulan also began to worry: "No, I didn't pay attention just now. Jianye probably doesn't know about this yet, but I haven't seen him yet, so he must be very worried."
After saying that, Yang Yulan hurried back to the west room. The room was pitch black, which made her suddenly have a bad idea. Without bothering to turn on the light, Yang Yulan groped her way to the bed, but there was no one on the bed.
Yang Yulan stumbled out, her voice trembling:
"Mom, Jianye is missing."
The author has something to say: Set a flag, work hard tomorrow to get 10,000! [Fist]
If, if you can't do it, just ignore me and run away on the train at night.
