Everyone was disgusted by Li's actions. They had always treated her lightly before, but if they didn't teach them a lesson this time, who knew what they would do next.
Li felt no shame whatsoever; she even deliberately flicked her snot at everyone.
"Village chief, they say my son stole something, but can't they at least provide evidence? They arrested my son without any proof. How can I trust you? Could it be that this new family is rich and gave you a bribe, so you're protecting them like this?"
She knew that the village chief had never been this attentive when new people came to the village before, but this time, the first person the Lu family wanted to deal with was her son. She knew without a doubt that these people were up to something!
"What nonsense are you spouting!"
The village chief was furious. He hated this woman the most because she was sharp-tongued and could twist the truth with her words, leaving him speechless.
"Did I say something wrong? You people may look respectable on the surface, but you're just looking for an opportunity to bully my son! Yes, my son is a good-for-nothing, but he's not someone you can just discipline! If you want to hurt my son today, you'll have to step over my dead body first!"
After Li finished speaking, she lay down on the ground, completely disregarding what others thought of her, utterly shameless.
Seeing how much his mother was protecting him, Qian Daniu, who had been a little worried, immediately felt relieved. In the past, his mother had always helped him solve problems, and she would definitely do the same this time.
Thinking this, he glanced at his two brothers with a touch of pride, showing off to them that he had such an excellent mother.
The other two lowered their heads in distress. They didn't have the same honor as Da Niu. They also saw their parents in the crowd, but their parents were unwilling to stand up for them like Da Niu's mother did. Instead, they felt that they were a disgrace.
The main reason is that each of their families has more than one son, while Da Niu's family only has one male member, so his parents dote on him extremely.
The village chief and the villagers were so angry they were sobbing and didn't know what to do.
The honest Lu family members were even more surprised that this woman would turn the tables on them. They were at a loss and looked anxiously at He Jiuniang.
In front of so many people, He Jiuniang shouldn't have stood out too much, but since this Li Shi was so persistent and unreasonable, then she wouldn't hold back.
“Village Chief,” she stepped forward, “since this matter is so difficult to judge, why not send it directly to the county government? I believe the magistrate will surely give our Lu family justice.”
He Jiuniang originally didn't want to make a big fuss. After all, they hadn't succeeded and hadn't gained anything. A lesson and a warning would have been enough. But this Li Shi made her change her mind.
"What did you say? Send him to the county government!"
Li's eyes widened: "My son didn't do anything, why are you sending him to the county government? Oh dear, my old bones, why am I so unlucky? They're trying to kill my son! No one will even collect my body after he dies!"
As he spoke, he rolled on the ground until he was covered in dust.
He Jiuniang took two steps back with obvious disgust, ignoring Li Shi, and said to the village chief, "Village chief, Li Shi's unreasonable behavior constitutes serious cover-up. According to the law, cover-up is also a crime. Since she is so reluctant to part with her son, why not tie them up and take them to the county government?"
Li was stunned. What did that little bitch just say?
Others were also incredulous, wondering how they had never heard of such evidence before.
"Village chief, does this law really exist?"
Someone quickly asked the question, which made the village chief feel a little embarrassed.
The reason the village chief became the village chief is because he knows a few more words than the average person and has better management skills, but when it comes to the law, he knows nothing about it!
"Forehead……"
Just as the village chief was frantically trying to come up with an explanation, He Jiuniang said again, "Whether they have it or not, we'll know by sending them directly there. As far as I know, someone who acts like a rascal like this will get at least twenty lashes."
He Jiuniang didn't understand any of this, but she was good at talking, and she could easily fool Li Shi.
"You little bitch, all you do is ruin my plans every day! I'll tear your mouth apart!"
Li had thought that if she made a scene like before, the village chief would just say a few perfunctory words and that would be the end of it. But this time, a new little bitch came along, and not only did she disrupt her plans, but she was also going to be taken to the county government office.
Did you think you were being too polite?
Li stood up and lunged at He Jiuniang, but He Jiuniang was just trying to tease her. Before Li could even get close, she was caught by Lu Fugui and his men who had just arrived.
"Old hag, do you think you can just hit the Lu family members like that?"
Lu Fugui and his group originally planned to help several other families build thatched houses by making adobe bricks. When they found so many people gathered here, they rushed over to see what was going on. Sure enough, someone was causing trouble, and it was directed at their third sister-in-law. Wasn't this challenging the bottom line of this large group of people?
The third sister-in-law is the lucky star of all the members of the Lu family. Dare to touch a hair on her head?
Suddenly, Li was lifted up like a chick by the tall Lu Fugui. She felt a little scared, but remembering the gossip she had heard yesterday, she blurted out, "Isn't this woman a widow? Who are you to stand up for her? You two are a disgrace to the family! ... Ah!"
Before she could finish speaking, Sun slapped her across the face and angrily said to the village chief, "Village chief, this old hag is spewing filth and ruining my daughter-in-law's and nephew's reputation! My third son is earning a living outside and doing just fine, so why is she calling my daughter-in-law a widow? This matter must be explained to the Lu family! Otherwise, we will never let this go!"
"Yes, give us an explanation!"
Lu Daping and the others also shouted. Although they had lost many of their clansmen, they still had a large number of people in total, and they would never allow these people to insult them at will!
The Qian family felt ashamed because this family had made them unable to hold their heads up in the village.
It's obvious to anyone with eyes that these three thugs saw that the woman was new and had no stable foundation, so they tried to steal from her, but they were caught red-handed. Now, it's one thing for Li to make a scene here, but she's also slandering the woman's daughter-in-law's reputation. Isn't she courting death?
"Guards! Tie this madwoman up too and take her to the county office!"
The village chief had reached his limit. Since this crazy woman wanted to cause trouble, then let her go to the county government office and make a scene for the magistrate to see!
