Chapter 127

The two brothers of the Chen family are just idiots, and they are not really stupid, so they will not sign the pledge.

As soon as they signed and pledged, the matter of donating food was settled. At that time, they had to donate if they donated, or they had to donate if they didn't donate.

Based on the current grain price in Qingjiang County, 3000 shi of grain is worth [-] taels of silver.

Taking out such a large sum of money will make the two brothers feel sorry for them to death.

The two Chen brothers shook their heads and said, "If you don't sign, you won't sign, and if you kill yourself, you won't sign."

With a wave of Zhao Wenchang's hand, more than a dozen yamen servants pulled out their sabers from the scabbard at the same time, and put them on the necks of the two Chen brothers.

Brother Chen: ...

"Let's sign, let's sign, can't we sign? What are you doing so fiercely? Woooooo..."

The two Chen family brothers were held hostage by the yamen servants around Zhao Wenchang, signed and pledged on the pledge, and then walked out of the gate of the county yamen safely.

They walked out of the gloomy county government office, surrounded by a bright universe, surrounded by crowds, and dared to curse.

"Zhao Wenchang, you dog official!
We are here to report the case. As the parent official of a county, you do not make decisions for us, but force us to sign some kind of pledge, asking us to donate [-] shi of grain as disaster relief food.

What is the difference between you and a robber?
Do you dare to come out of the county government office and tell the folks in Qingjiang County what you did just now?
Come out, you have the ability to intimidate us, so don't hide inside and keep quiet..."

Zhao Wenchang couldn't help being happy after hearing this.When these two idiots yelled like that, the common people outside would definitely appreciate him.

Zhao Wenchang straightened his clothes and walked out of the county office.

Sure enough, he stopped at the door without saying anything, and was greeted with a lot of applause.

Whether it's hatred of the rich or class antagonism, the common people are happy to hear that the county magistrate forced the landlord to donate food for disaster relief.

They wished that the county magistrate would lead the yamen servants to raid the homes of all the gentry and wealthy households, and use the stolen wealth to help poor people like them.

Someone's eyes lit up and asked Zhao Wenchang: "Lord County Magistrate, have you really forced Mr. Chen's son to donate food?" If it was true, he would offer his knee and call Zhao Wenchang "Master Qingtian".

Zhao Wenchang replied with a righteous face: "Forcing others to do things they don't want to do is against the law.

How can I know the law and break the law?

The two young masters of the Chen family donated voluntarily.

Chen Yuanwai suffered an emergency yesterday and fell into a coma.

The two young masters decided to pray for their father by doing good deeds, that's why they came here to donate food for disaster relief..."

Whatever the truth, everyone should know.

Zhao Wenchang explained a few words casually, and then sent the yamen servants to "escort" the two Chen brothers back home.

After that, he left the city with a smile on his face, and went to inspect the water conservancy projects under construction...

In the evening of that day, Old Doctor Wang announced that Yuanwai Chen would not see the sun tomorrow.

Chen Yuanwai's old Zhuhuang's wife heard the news, and cried sadly on Chen Yuanwai's body.

Chen Yuanwai's concubines quietly left the room where Chen Yuanwai was lying, and searched the entire Chen Mansion for property, planning to flee Chen Mansion with their belongings before Mrs. Chen sold them.

Chen Yuanwai's two sons began to fight over the family property again...

At this moment, the housekeeper brought a bamboo tube of "Immortal Water" that was on sale in Xinglin Village into the house.

He told Mrs. Chen the righteous words of Xinglin Village.

After hearing this, Mrs. Chen couldn't help asking: "Does this 'fairy water' really have the miraculous effect of bringing the dead back to life?"

The butler hadn't drunk either, so he wasn't sure.This "immortal water" is only one bamboo tube, if there is another bamboo tube, he can find someone to come out and try the effect.

"Our Chen Mansion has to be supported by the master so that we won't fall down. Regardless of whether this 'immortal water' is useful or not, let's try it. In the current situation, the master can only be treated as a dead horse."

Mrs. Chen nodded, and fed Mr. Chen the tube of "immortal water" with her own hands.

After Chen Yuanwai drank the "fairy water", he woke up in less than a cup of tea.

Mrs. Chen wept with joy.

After a stick of incense, Chen Yuanwai learned everything that happened after he fell into a coma from the housekeeper.

The housekeeper also said, "I sent someone to inquire this morning, and it turned out that the heads of the heads of the Heifeng Village were all chopped off by Jiang Erya...

All the money she used to buy the land was in exchange for human heads!

That is definitely a ruthless person!
She has a very good relationship with Mr. Zhao, even if she committed a crime, Mr. Zhao will protect her..."

Member Chen nodded after listening to the housekeeper's words, and said: "The two unsatisfied people in the family signed the pledge, and there is such a murderous Jiang Erya watching, we can't do it if we don't donate.

Hurry up and bring a few more people to the homes of other gentry and rich families.Let them resell the grain in their hands to me.

The current price of grain on the market is thirteen cents a catty, you tell them, I am willing to pay fourteen cents a catty..."

After the butler left with his staff, Yuanwai Chen asked his wife to send someone to find his concubines.

Chen Yuanwai's concubines were shocked when they heard the summons.

real or fake?Didn't he say he was going to die soon?Why are you still alive?
The messengers nodded and said, "It's really come back to life, we heard the voices of master and madam talking outside the door."

The concubines hurriedly asked: "What did the madam say to the master? Is she suing the master about us?"

The messenger shook his head and said: "We can only hear a little buzzing outside the door, and we can't hear what they are talking about."

The concubines had no choice but to put back the things they had looted one by one, and then ran to Yuanwai's bed, pinched his thighs, and twisted their bodies to perform.

"My lord, you've woken up. I've been scared to death by you for the past two days. I can't even sleep well, and I can't even eat."

"My lord, if you don't wake up, I will follow you, woo woo woo..."

"Grandpa..."

Chen Yuanwai originally called them here to punish them, but after being coaxed by them like this, he immediately recovered.

In front of Mrs. Chen, he embraced those hearts and kissed them.

Mrs. Chen: ...

I really want to invite Jiang Erya over and ask Jiang Erya to slap him again.This time, she will definitely not feed him "fairy water"!

As soon as the three days came, Yuanwai Chen transported [-] shi of grain to the gate of the county government office.

The county magistrate with a very low sense of presence came forward to receive the grain.

Chen Yuanwai asked, "Why isn't the county magistrate here?"

The county magistrate replied: "The magistrate has gone to Xinglin Village. On the eighth day of the eighth day, the Jiang family moved to a new house, and the magistrate went to congratulate."

Chen Yuanwai asked again: "The Jiang family? Which Jiang family?"

The county magistrate smiled, and said: "Jiang Erya's family. It's the Jiang Erya who almost beat you to death and forced your family to donate [-] shi of grain, her family."

Member Chen choked for a moment, thought about it, and decided to go to Xinglin Village to congratulate him immediately with a gift...
