Chapter 209
"Although Liang Yuanwang did commit murder, his motivation was to save others. I hereby declare that Liang Yuanwang is not guilty and is released."
The onlookers immediately cheered.
After the cheers died down, the city lord continued, "However, although I did not mean to kill anyone, the murder did happen. Liang Yuanwang will no longer serve as the head of the new village."
He turned to his uncle and said with a half-smile: "You, as the head of the new village, are responsible for leading everyone to build the new village."
The cousin was pleased to get what he wanted, and without caring whether Liang Yuanwang was imprisoned or not, he kowtowed several times.
"Adjourn."
The city lord spoke and the onlookers dispersed. Liang Yuanwang walked towards his family excitedly.
Shen Yuefu burst into tears: "Fortunately, fortunately you are okay, otherwise I really don't know what I would do."
"The city lord is an official who knows right from wrong. I killed someone for a reason. He will definitely help me."
Shen Yuefu nodded, then became embarrassed again: "But it's a new village."
Liang Yuanwang is very open-minded: "It's all for the good of the villagers. It doesn't matter who leads them."
"That's definitely different."
Liang Yuanwang looked at his cousin and felt very frustrated.
"My father is the village chief because of his strength and the support of the people. What does that mean? He is just a dog that bites people in the back."
Liang Yuan looked at his daughter and wondered why his good girl loved to swear so much.
He was about to give a lecture when the good girl's voice came again.
"But retribution is coming."
Although it doesn't matter, I am still a little happy and curious to hear that the other party will get retribution.
Liang Yuanwang stopped his original thoughts and listened obediently to what the good girl said next.
"Since the city lord didn't tell him in court that he would give him the money, that means he doesn't have to give it to him. Without the money, I want to see what he can use to build the new village."
Liang Yuanwang was a simple and honest man. After the city lord's judgment was issued, he had already made plans to give away the real money. Suddenly, after listening to the good girl's analysis, he suddenly felt that it made sense.
He felt that he really shouldn't take it out.
Just as he was thinking about it, his cousin, who had put away his smug mood, came over. He had a false smile on his face and tried to get close to Liang Yuanwang in a hypocritical manner.
"Don't blame me. I'm afraid that you've killed someone and that will affect the future of our village, so I'm going to do this. I'll give you two days to prepare, and I'll come to you for the money after two days."
Liang Yuanwang didn't respond, turned around and left with his wife and daughter.
Liang Huanxue lay on her mother's shoulder, watching her cousin's expression change from hypocritical to gloomy.
She pouted.
"Chameleon Tiger!"
Liang Yuanwang also felt that his good daughter was scolded really well!
As soon as the three of them entered the house, several children who had gone to school came back.
The academy where the students were attending classes was closed, and the news did not get in at all. The students had no idea that their old father had been in jail.
Afraid of worrying others, Liang Yuanwang did not say anything.
I don’t know why, but Liang Guier was in a bad mood when he came back. He rushed into his room and slammed the door.
"What's going on?" Liang Yuan looked at him in bewilderment.
Liang Huanxue didn't know what kind of problems a boy of this age would encounter to lock himself up at home as soon as he got home.
Liang Jiajiang explained Liang Gui'er's anomaly: "Dad, Mom, Gui'er was laughed at by everyone in the academy. They said that if he was called Gui'er, his father must not love him or his mother."
"Yes, yes." Liang Shoujiang followed closely, "But we all spoke for Brother Guier, but no one believed us."
Liang Shoujiang looked at his father and said, "Dad, how can I help my brother?"
Liang Yuanwang opened his mouth, but didn't know what to do.
He frowned, not knowing what to think.
Liang Shoujiang suddenly became sad: "Dad, is there nothing you can do? Then won't Guier Ge be bullied forever?"
"When dealing with a little brat who has gone too far, of course you have to give him a tooth for a tooth."
"Treat him the way he treats you."
Of course, Liang Huanxue felt that she was not a good person, and her fighting skills were not weak in her previous life. If it were her, she would definitely beat the opponent so hard that he would not dare to fight.
Of course, this was only directed at him. She would never encourage others to use force to solve problems. It was not civilized enough.
Liang Shoujiang's little face turned bitter.
What is too much? What is two teeth?
The young man thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it. Anyway, he knew what the following sentence meant.
The young man got the instructions and patted his old father on the waist seriously: "Dad, I know what to do."
He behaved like a little adult, but there was a hint of disdain towards his old father in his eyes.
Dad is so old, but he still doesn’t know as much as my little sister.
Just thinking about it, the disgust in Liang Shoujiang's eyes became more serious.
Liang Yuanwang simply couldn't believe that a four-year-old kid could have such emotions in his eyes. He blinked in disbelief, but it was clear that he was disgusted.
The stretched-out nose, the downward-pointing corners of the mouth, and the eyebrows that were almost glued together because of a slight frown.
Sure enough, children don’t know how to hide their emotions.
Liang Yuanwang was about to hit Liang Shoujiang: "What's that expression on your face, little brat?"
Liang Shoujiang quickly said, "Dad, I don't dislike you."
"What a great trick to cover up one's own misfortune."
Liang Huanxue applauded the young man.
Liang Shoujiang tilted his head.
What do you mean by two? Is it money? Do I have a lot of money?
Before he could figure it out, his father's slap had already landed on him. Although it didn't hurt, it still made him scream and repeat over and over again: "Dad, I don't dislike you."
Liang Huanxue: "..."
Liang Weijiang and Liang Jiajiang watched for a long time, and only went to stop them when the father and son had made enough noise.
Although Liang Weijiang was already very sensible, he came into contact with many people after being captured, so he knew more.
"Dad, the name Gui'er may not be a big deal in the village, but now that we are in the village, this name is not nice. We have to change it, otherwise my cousin will be bullied in the future."
Liang Yuanwang nodded: "Yes, it has to be changed, but I have to ask the city lord if it will have any impact on the name that has been registered to the academy."
Liang Weijiang said again: "Dad, besides this, there is one more thing."
His face showed reluctance and determination: "I won't go to the academy anymore. I will work as a blacksmith with Uncle San to make money."
Liang Yuanwang immediately refused: "How can that be possible? You are still young."
"Dad, I'm already eleven years old. I've long passed the age of enlightenment. I can't keep up with the old and the new. Even if I go to the academy, it will only waste my time. It's better for me to work and earn money as soon as possible."
His eyes fell on Liang Huanxue: "If I make money, I can buy delicious and fun things for my little sister."
At this time, my brother is still thinking about himself.
Liang Huanxue was moved to tears.
"Big brother, you are so kind. When I make money in the future, I will send you money by the box."
Liang Huanxue drew a super big cake for her elder brother, thinking that she was the only one who knew the secret.
Unexpectedly, Liang Weijiang listened to her and liked her even more.
Shen Yuefu also advised: "Weijiang, there is no rush to make money, you..."
"Mom, this took me several days to figure out. Don't worry, I will be responsible for myself."
