Nongmen shrew: Farming with cubs is spoiled by rough men

Chapter 168 The Lion's Big Opening

She responded: "Well, the village chief is..."

She glanced at Qin Xiaomei, Qin Xiaomei saw that he couldn't help hiding behind the village chief.

The village chief smiled and said, "Oh, well, I want to ask you something. This Xiaomei said she asked you to borrow some money and you refused to borrow it. Is that the case?"

Qin Zhiyi responded: "That's the case."

The village chief nodded and asked again: "Xiaomei said that you refused to lend it to her and even broke her head. Of course I don't believe it, so I came here to ask you a question."

"How did her head break? I believe she knows better than anyone else. Isn't the village chief curious about how much money she wants to borrow and what she wants to do with the money?"

The village head sighed and said: "I asked, this girl said that her mother is going to marry her to a fool in Dongzhuang, and her mother has received money from him, so she wants to ask you to chip in and return the dowry money to him. I'm thinking about it." It's not a big deal, but you have to figure it out, so you can't tarnish your reputation."

She could accept what the village head said.

She raised her voice and said, "Qin Xiaomei, tell everyone in front of the big guy, you asked how much money I borrowed, and how did you get the injury on your head?"

Qin Xiaomei never expected that the village head did not come to question Qin Zhiyi, but to clarify.

She clenched her fists bitterly, and couldn't figure out why the villagers didn't help her, but instead spoke for the little widow.

So she said: "I asked her to borrow two taels of silver, but she refused. The other aunts and sister-in-laws in the village should have seen it too. I knelt down to her, but she didn't want to borrow it. And my head...it's her Hit it with a rolling pin!"

As soon as this was said, many people also discussed it.

"I saw Qin Xiaomei crying at the door of her house in the morning. So it was to borrow money."

"Running to someone's house and crying early in the morning should be beaten. If it were me, I would be beaten worse than her!"

"That's too bad luck, no wonder people don't borrow it."

What everyone said made Qin Xiaomei even more dumbfounded. She simply supported her head and shook it, looking like she was about to fall down.

Mrs. Qin realized this, and hurriedly supported Qin Xiaomei, and started to cry: "This miserable daughter, after being beaten into such a state, she still has to be criticized. Do you want to live with someone?"

Fei Chengcheng, who was standing aside, said sharply at this time: "Today, you guys have to tell me carefully what happened to her head. If you don't tell the truth clearly, I don't mind carrying out this crime."

This shout immediately scared everyone.

Everyone looked at Fei Chengcheng together, and saw that he clenched his fists, the veins on his arms burst out, as if he might swing his fists at any time and directly beat people to pieces.

"Say."

When he said the word again, Qin Xiaomei trembled in fright.

But she still kept her mouth shut tightly.

Qin Zhiyi knew that Fei Chengcheng had indeed scared everyone.

I finally understood why Fei Chengcheng's reputation in the market is so bad, probably because of his reluctance to explain and his terrifying temper.

At this moment, she took a step forward and walked to Qin Xiaomei's side, looked at the cloth wrapped around her head, and then took it off one by one.

Qin Xiaomei was taken aback by her, and said, "You, what are you doing?"

"do not move."

She continued to move her hands until the last circle of cloth was removed, and she said slowly: "I'm just curious, where is the wound I beat you in the morning, and what is the shape of the beating, hiss..."

She hissed, and everyone looked at her.

"It's such a big hole, how can I strike so hard? Dabao, show me your mother's rolling pin."

Dabao clenched his fists. He knew that A Niang was framed, so he was also very angry at the moment.

But he knew that A Niang had her own way, so when he heard A Niang's order, he rushed into the kitchen to get things for the first time.

Soon Dabao brought the rolling pin, and the little man raised the rolling pin high, with a firm expression on his face.

Qin Zhiyi touched Dabao's chubby face, and Dabao's face turned slightly red.

Then she showed the rolling pin to everyone: "Look, this is my rolling pin. According to her, I beat her in the morning, but there is no blood on it."

Although everyone knew that Qin Zhiyi would not do such a thing, they still took a look out of curiosity.

After reading it, Qin Zhiyi handed the rolling pin to Dabao: "Dabao, help Auntie put the rolling pin back."

Dabao responded, took the rolling pin with both hands, and left happily.

Qin Zhiyi continued: "But I think Xiaomei's injury didn't seem to be in the morning. There are incense ash on her head, and the wound has scabbed over. The most important thing is, if it was really caused by a rolling pin, there should be marks..."

Others also craned their necks to look.

But Qin Xiaomei's head had indeed scabbed and turned dark brown, and the blood stains on the wrapped cloth strips also turned black.

She changed the subject and asked again: "Also, Xiaomei, did you really ask me to borrow two taels of silver this morning? How dare you swear to God that you didn't lie?"

Of course she didn't dare to make this oath, so looking at Qin Zhiyi, Qin Xiaomei felt scared.

"Yes, do you dare to swear?"

Others also encouraged at this time.

Qin Xiaomei looked around in fear, her eyes revealing uneasiness, and in the end she had no choice but to grit her teeth and say, "I said to borrow fifty taels."

"Fifty two?"

The crowd was in an uproar again.

Fifty taels is not a small amount. Ordinary people like them eat and grow their own food, and the total cost in a year is more than ten taels of silver. Qin Xiaomei just opened her mouth and asked for fifty taels. How dare she?
Qin Zhiyi said unhurriedly: "Why didn't you tell everyone that at first you asked me to borrow one hundred taels."

"This is too much!"

"That's right, Qin Xiaomei, didn't you say it was just to repay your mother's dowry? Why do you want so much money?"

Even Mrs. Qin looked at Qin Xiaomei with surprised eyes at this time. Even she didn't expect that her daughter would dare to speak so loudly.

The direction of the wind changed suddenly, and all the spearheads were pointed at Qin Xiaomei.

Just as everyone was still criticizing Qin Xiaomei, Dabao ran over huffing and puffing: "Mother, I saw blood on the pillar of my cousin's house. I don't know how it was done. It's so scary."

Everyone looked in the direction of Dabao, but seeing the innocent face of the little boy carved with jade, they all believed it.

"Tongyan Wuji, that should be true."

"There are blood stains in the house. Could it be someone who was injured by yourself?"

When someone said that, the village chief stroked his beard and immediately said, "I'll ask someone to take a look."

"I'll go take a look too."

"I'll go as well."

Qin Zhiyi looked at Qin Xiaomei: "Let's go, let's go and see what's going on with your family."

When Mrs. Qin heard this, her face turned pale with fright. If everyone saw the blood on the pillar, wouldn't they know that she forced her daughter to be sold?
She hurried forward to stop him: "Village chief, village chief, wait a minute, the blood bar in my house was actually made by killing a chicken yesterday."
