Zhou said nonchalantly, "My parents-in-law are sleeping there. How can I bring them out if I don't dig them up?"
Ji Changchuan was stunned by his own mother's behavior, and tears in his eyes were about to fall off.
"Outrageous! Outrageous! How dare you dig up your own grave and disturb my parents' eternal rest? I'm so angry!"
Ji Fengyi felt dizzy.
As a scholar, this was simply treason for him!
But the culprit looked like nothing had happened, and his eyes were full of confusion as he looked at him.
"But we're moving! How are we going to look after my parents-in-law if we don't take them with us? Of course, the whole family needs to be together. Do you really want to leave your parents behind?"
As she spoke, Zhou looked at Ji Fengyi with some anger.
Her parents-in-law were so good to her, but now her eldest brother wants to leave them behind and move away?
snort!
Hu had just been woken up by the pinch, and when she opened her eyes, she was staring at the human skull again. She was so scared that she quickly closed her eyes: "Why don't you wrap it up quickly!!"
Zhou pouted and wrapped up the bones, mumbling, "These are my parents, there's nothing to be afraid of..."
Ji Changying did not interrupt the elders when they were talking.
Seeing Zhou scaring everyone in the family so much that they closed their eyes and dared not look, he couldn't help but twitch his lips.
This cheap girl has quite strong fighting ability.
Ji Fengshou felt his scalp tighten when he saw the chaos caused by Zhou at home. He glared at Zhou and prepared to teach her a lesson.
There was a commotion outside, accompanied by the sound of horse hooves.
Officers and soldiers, we’re here!
As soon as they entered the village, the soldiers marched through the village, beating drums and gongs, shouting, "Ji Bohui of the Ji family has committed treason and offended the Emperor! Ji Bohui offered his death as an apology. Your Majesty, show mercy and spare the lives of the Ji family! The death penalty can be spared, but the punishment of life cannot be escaped. We hereby sentence the Ji family to confiscation of property and exile, to be carried out immediately!"
The whole village was in an uproar.
The officers and soldiers were like bandits entering the village. As soon as the officers and soldiers on horseback in front gave the order, a group of people rushed into the houses of each household.
Suddenly, screams, cries, pleas for mercy and the cries of poultry were heard everywhere.
The whole family's attention was immediately diverted, and no one was in the mood to care about Zhou's grave digging.
The Ji family's courtyard was violently broken open by the soldiers. As soon as they entered, they shouted, "Everyone! Stand in the courtyard! Hurry!"
The whole family looked at Ji Fengyi.
He felt sad.
This moment has finally arrived.
From now on, he is no longer the teacher of the Ji family, nor is he a scholar with honors, nor is he a member of Lotus Village.
Everything in the first half of life is just a passing cloud.
From now on he was just a branch of the criminal Ji clan.
He is the eldest brother and the backbone of the family.
He wants to protect his family and reach Liangzhou safely!
A thought flashed through his mind, and Ji Fengyi was no longer sad. He stood up and led the way into the yard.
Ji Changying raised her foot and followed.
No matter how bad the current situation is, it is still much better than the end of the world.
She also has her family again and no longer has to live alone in this world.
As long as the family is together, we can go anywhere.
The officers were very satisfied to see that they arrived quite quickly.
They were divided into two teams and stood there, staring at them closely to prevent them from making any small moves.
"Everyone, put on your prison uniforms! Put on leg irons for the men and gather at the village entrance! Quickly!"
The officer threw the prison uniforms in his hand on the ground and watched them put them on.
"Hand over the bag behind you!"
As the officer said this, he was about to step forward and take the bag from behind Zhou.
The Ji family was shocked. That was the remains of their elder, how could they hand it over to others?
"Sir, we can't steal this thing!" Ji Fengshou and his three nephews stopped him from going forward.
"If you stop me again, your crime will be even more serious!"
"Sir! The remains of my parents are inside!" Ji Fengyi stepped forward and explained in a deep voice.
"Bah! Do you think Grandpa was scared? Who would carry the corpses of my parents around? Catch them!"
Zhou's face was full of dissatisfaction: "You still don't believe it? I'll show you right now!"
He quickly opened the bag behind him and said, "You don't have parents of your own? Why are you robbing ours?!"
Several officers stared with wide eyes at the two white skeletons inside. The eye sockets above the skulls looked deep and dark in the night.
All the officers and soldiers took three steps back in shock.
The officer who had just disbelieved it immediately shouted, "Take it away!"
It's really creepy to see this in the middle of the night.
"Don't blame me, sir. This is my sister-in-law. She has had problems here since she was a child. She is well-known in the surrounding area."
Ji Fengyi pointed to his head and explained with a painful look on his face.
He turned out to be a fool! No wonder he behaved so rudely.
Several officers rubbed their goose bumps, not wanting to discuss the topic any further: "Take these guys over!"
All the men were shackled, while the children and women were temporarily spared. They were escorted to the village entrance by two constables.
Many people had already gathered there.
All the families in Lianhua Village were driven here, even those whose surname was not Ji.
Ten officers and soldiers stayed here, checking the number of people and appearances in each household with the household registration list.
The other officers and soldiers all looted all the property from every household.
I wish I could scrape three layers of oil out of the ground.
Whenever they saw that the ground in someone's yard was a different color, they would dig three feet deep to find what was there.
There are so many nooks and crannies in front of and behind the house that the house is almost demolished.
Seeing that the people who were ransacking the house had actually found quite a few things, many housewives couldn't help but sit on the ground and cry.
