Chapter 68: Vicious Woman
"Get up, what are you doing? Are your knees so worthless?"
Zhao Yaozu was furious. These were all women, and as a grown man he couldn't help but yell at them.
"Village head, why don't you send them to the commune? Can you just let them compensate Sihui and her brother?"
Aunt Liu then pleaded for mercy, saying that her father-in-law was an old Red Army soldier and the village chief still respected her very much.
"You decide how to compensate the child."
Zhao Yaozu pointed at the four women on the ground, who were kneeling in a row, crying as if the sky had fallen.
"I'll hand over the big rooster and all the money Zhao Cuihua gave me."
Granny Li is an old woman with a lot of thoughts. She just takes in things with her left hand and gives them out with her right hand, so she doesn't suffer any loss.
"Okay, you take the money and the rooster to Li Sihui later."
Zhao Yaozu nodded. Her family was extremely poor, and even if they asked her to take anything else, they couldn't afford it.
"And you!"
He pointed at Zhao Cuihua and saw that she was glaring at Granny Li with her teeth gnashing. She was simply stubborn and his voice became stern.
"I gave two dollars for a rooster, but Granny Li's was given by me, so I don't want it anymore. Just give it to Li Sihui."
She was also cunning. The money and the rooster were confiscated goods after all. She couldn't get them back even if she wanted them, so she might as well pretend to be generous and give them away.
"Zhao Cuihua, do you think I'm a fool? That's your evidence. Why do you really want to go to the commune?"
Zhao Yaozu was furious, but he was not afraid. If he didn't teach her a lesson, she would cause trouble in the future.
"I...I'll go home and get the money and the cock."
Seeing that the village chief was angry, Zhao Cuihua had no choice but to agree.
"Listen to me, you are the one who caused this incident today. You have to compensate Li Sihui with five dollars and an old hen. Do you hear me?"
Zhao Yaozu looked at her with a sneer. To be honest, he really wanted to send her to the commune. Once she left, the whole village would be quiet.
"Why do I have more? She only has two?"
Zhao Cuihua was not willing to suffer any loss, so she got angry at that time.
"Liu Changshui, send her to the commune."
Zhao Yaozu glared at her with a cold face. He just didn't want to let her go!
"And you!"
He pointed at Sun Erya. With the example of her sister-in-law, Sun Erya quickly raised her hand and said, "I'll give you two dollars and a rooster."
She was so distressed! The family had no money to begin with, and they couldn't bear to eat the chicken themselves, but they had to give it to that dead girl. The key point was that it wasn't for their own family.
"And you?"
Zhao Yaozu looked at Liu Jingyun again. What he wanted in his heart was to let this woman leave Kaoshantun, otherwise, she would cause trouble again.
"My family has no money! Besides, this matter has nothing to do with us."
Liu Jingyun didn't want to take the money, nor did he want to take the responsibility, so he pushed it all away.
"Okay, here's the thing! Everyone has seen it clearly. Since we can't reach a consensus, let's all go to the commune!"
Zhao Yaozu was so angry that he decided not to pity anyone anymore. Everyone had ulterior motives. If he didn't punish them this time, they would be punished next time.
"Let's close the village office first! It's not safe to go up the mountain after dark."
He didn't want to waste any more time. If these women wanted to kneel, then they could kneel! Anyway, he was determined.
"Village chief! My wife is sick, please don't send her to the commune."
When Li Laogen saw this, he came over to stop the village chief and begged for mercy crying.
"Village head, my wife did something wrong, I'll beat her up, don't send her to the commune!"
Zhao Cuihua's man Sun Baixiang also came running over after hearing the letter, and together with Li Laogen, he stopped Zhao Yaozu.
"Li Sihui, you are such a vicious woman."
Just as everyone was arguing, a cold voice rang out, attracting everyone's attention.
