Hexi Village.
Today is the day when the Zhao family comes to "buy" the land of the old Cui family.
The villagers were indignant but powerless to stop it.
Old Mrs. Cui, supported by her two daughters-in-law, was waiting in the fields with Xian'er and Yu'er.
The whole family looked tense.
The other villagers thought they were feeling sad and came forward to comfort them.
However, what the Cui family members were worried about was whether they could completely overthrow Zhao Zhi next!
Just when Mrs. Cui was feeling anxious.
She noticed that Xiang'er reached out and held her hand.
The grandfather and grandson looked at each other, and Cui Xian's eyes were full of determination.
This made Mrs. Cui feel much more at ease.
at this time.
A fellow villager gritted his teeth and said, "The Zhao family is here!"
Then a luxurious carriage, accompanied by dozens of fierce servants, came in an arrogant and mighty manner.
Even when they reached the fields, they continued to charge forward without even stopping their horses.
This caused countless villagers to panic and avoid it.
Cui Xian looked at this scene with cold eyes.
After the carriage stopped, Zhao Yaozu was the first to get out of the sedan chair, his eyes sparkling: "Is this the field? Quick, bury my birth date!"
After saying that.
Only then did Zhao Yaozu notice Cui Xian.
He immediately said smugly, "Oh, we meet again. Weren't you so arrogant back then? I wonder if you can still smile today! Grandfather, quickly drive this unlucky family away and don't let them defile my Feng Shui land!"
Hearing this, the villagers were all filled with resentment.
The Zhao family is too arrogant!
Zhao Zhi followed him out of the sedan chair and looked down at the Cui family.
He had been the county magistrate for many years and was extremely powerful, with an air of authority all over him.
The people were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they dared not look him in the eye.
Zhao Zhi looked around and finally landed on Cui Xian. He asked, "Are you Cui Xian?"
Cui Xian was not afraid and looked at him coldly: "It's me, so what?"
Zhao Zhi was quite surprised, then sneered, "You are really brave, maybe you can become a big shot in the future. It's a pity that you don't have a future."
"Sign this land sale deed, and then you and your family will go to the corvée field to open up wasteland."
What?
Upon hearing this, the surrounding villagers were in an uproar.
The head of the village said in a trembling voice: "Sir, County Magistrate, didn't you say that as long as the Cui family agreed to sell the land, you would let them go?"
Zhao Zhi's face suddenly tensed when he heard this, and he shouted, "How dare you! When did I ever say such a thing? The Cui family sold the land on a voluntary basis, and going to the corvée field to open up wasteland is also in accordance with the normal government regulations."
"How dare you slander me, Qingbai, for no reason?"
The head of the village was frightened by these sarcastic words. His legs went weak and he fell to the ground, trembling and not daring to say another word.
The Cui family members were so angry that their faces turned blue.
Old Cui was shaking with anger, saying, "You want to buy thirty acres of my land for one penny, and you said it was all up to my family's will? Is there such a thing as voluntariness in this world?"
Facing Old Cui's questioning, Zhao Zhi sneered and disdainfully responded.
He is the county magistrate, why should he waste his time talking to an old country woman?
Behind Zhao Zhi.
One of the subordinates raised his hand and said, "Come here, arrest this member of the Cui family, remove their household registration, and send them to the corvée field!"
There is a saying: Cut the grass at its roots.
Zhao Zhi naturally understood this principle.
The Cui family members looked horrified and anxious.
Seeing that this group of Zhao family servants were about to take action, Cui Xian quickly calmed himself down, looked straight at Zhao Yaozu, and then pretended to look back at his own fields anxiously.
Fortunately!
He was afraid that Zhao Zhi would be unreasonable and do something drastic, so he prepared a strategy to delay time.
As expected, Zhao Yaozu saw Cui Xian's action and shouted, "Grandfather, wait a minute! Cui Xian, where is your birth date and time buried? Go and dig it out quickly!"
Cui Xian asked, "After I tell you, will you let my family go?"
Zhao Yaozu rolled his eyes and said, "Of course!"
So Cui Xian said, "Okay, I'll take you to find it."
Seeing this, the Zhao family's servants did not arrest the person immediately.
Zhao Zhi watched from the side without making any comment.
Zhao Yaozu jumped off the carriage himself, and accompanied by two servants, followed Cui Xian to find the birth date and horoscope buried in the ground.
But Cui Xian searched for a long time, looking here and there, but couldn't find it.
Zhao Yaozu asked anxiously: "Where is it?"
Cui Xian said calmly: "How can we find it easily in such a large field? There was smoke coming out of the place where I buried the birth date!"
When Zhao Yaozu heard this, his expression became even more urgent: "Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and find it!"
Outside the fields.
Zhao Zhi waited for a long time, but still did not see Cui Xian and his grandson come back. He squinted his eyes and looked over there, and suddenly his eyebrows jumped.
Why did he feel that the kid from the Cui family was deliberately beating around in circles with his grandson?
Delay time?
Zhao Zhi didn't believe that the Cui family could cause any trouble.
But in order to avoid further complications, it is better to end this matter as soon as possible.
therefore.
Under the horrified gaze of countless villagers.
Zhao Zhi flicked his sleeves and said coldly: "Capture the Cui family, make them sign the sales contract early, and send them to where they should go."
"yes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of fierce Zhao family servants responded loudly, preparing to capture the Cui family first.
Chen and Lin were so terrified that they protected Cui Yu and Old Cui behind them.
The people of Hexi Village were so scared that they even closed their eyes.
In the fields.
Cui Xian seemed to sense something and suddenly raised his head.
