Ma'am help, the general is in trouble again

Chapter 22
"What do you mean? Why don't you ask what your son has done? He bullies people, arranges people, and makes the villain sue first. Is it reasonable?"

Although Zheng Quchi is a highly educated person, but a woman's nature is to protect the calf. If she dares to bully her family, she dares to turn against them.

The village woman glared at her waist, and greeted both sides: "Who said that my baby bullied others? It is clearly you, bullying the small with the big. Today we must let her give an explanation, otherwise this matter will not pass!"

A group of women with big arms and thick waists surrounded him. They despised Zheng Quchi for being short and thin, and they didn't pay attention to her at all.

Zheng Quchi did not retreat but advanced, a sharp light flashed in the bottom of his eyes: "Don't think that you can bully others because you have a large number of people. If you dare to touch me and try it, I will turn around and report to the officials. Daye has laws. Those who cause trouble and intentionally injure people will carve people's faces with a knife and paint the wound with ink to make it never fade, and at the same time, they will be punished as coolies such as building fortifications and digging ditches under strict supervision."

Her words were sonorous and forceful, and she took another step suddenly, which made all the women tremble and shrink their necks unconsciously.

"Come on, let's do it."

Seeing her fearless appearance, the village women hesitated instead.

The villagers in the village usually have some quarrels, but no one will take the initiative to report to the officials. After all, the people have feared the authority of officials since ancient times.

Secondly, they are all from the village. As the saying goes, if you look up and see down, you will be criticized by people if you do too much and cause trouble.

So it was the first time they knew that beating someone and causing trouble could be charged with such a serious crime, and they were a little apprehensive.

"You, who are you lying to?"

From the corner of her eyes, the daughter-in-law of the old Wu family in the village caught a glimpse of the basket behind her and a lot of loess piled up on the ground. She rolled her eyes and sneered gloatingly, "Oh, it's just that you poor settlers still want to find someone in the village." Come to help repair the house, don't even think about it, bully my baby, I see which man in the village dares to help your Sang family!"

Recently, the Sang family was burned down by a big fire, and everyone secretly speculated maliciously that the Sang family must have done some nasty and dirty things to offend people.

Because the Sang family is an outsider who just moved to Hegou Village not long ago, and their family is either crippled or stupid, and there is also a freak second child who is as dark as a coal ball, so since they moved here, this family has been living in the village. There is a lot of gossip in the village.

They even made trouble with Li Zheng many times, trying to drive them away.

However, the Sang family has always lived in seclusion and seldom interacted with the villagers. Lizheng was not a foolish official, so he just brushed off the matter.

At this time, Big Brother Sang was stared at in the village, but he returned in vain. When he came back dejected, he saw a large group of people surrounding Zheng Quchi, he was startled, and hurried over with a limp.

"What are you doing?"

When the woman saw Brother Sang, her expression was even more arrogant: "Cripple Sang, you have begged a lot to see who will take care of you, don't waste your time, no one will come to help you repair the house, if you are sensible Get out of our Hegou Village immediately."

Brother Sang clenched his fists tightly. His pride was hurt by the word lame, and his complexion was gloomy because of his inability to help Brother Qing.

No wonder the people in the village made excuses to evade it, it turned out that they were the ones who made trouble.

"Sister-in-law Wu, why are you so aggressive about the children's playfulness? I...I can apologize to you."

"Are you apologizing?" Ha, the daughter-in-law of the old Wu's family seemed to stand up in front of Brother Sang, she turned her lips, and sneered at Zheng Quchi's direction: "It's not you who bullied the child, you are trying to do this What, whoever did it will confess to our doll here."

"That's right, maybe for the sake of your pity sleeping in the pigsty, you won't care about this matter."

"Brother Qing is still young, I can't teach her well, if she makes mistakes, I will..."

Zheng Quchi interjected angrily: "Brother, they clearly planned to make trouble, so it's useless for you to make excuses."

"Enough, I have a sense of proportion, don't interrupt." He sternly scolded her.

Seeing more and more people in the village joining in the fun and crowding around, Big Brother Sang just wanted to calm things down. He knew that the people in the village didn't want to see them all the time, so he couldn't let them find an excuse to drive their family out of Hegou Village.

"I apologize to you on behalf of Brother Qing. We are willing to pay and ask you to help our family. If you are still dissatisfied..." He had no choice but to hang his head, trembling and gritted his teeth, "I can kneel down and beg—" —”

Simply deceiving!
At this time, Zheng Quchi couldn't bear it anymore.

She pulled Brother Sang up, and said in a confident and arrogant tone: "Apologizing is impossible, if you don't want to help, I won't. Help yourself!"

Brother Sang was taken aback. After listening to the others, they were stunned for a long while and burst out laughing.

"Hahahaha...a shabby hukou, still a foreigner, I would like to see who you, Sang Xuanqing, can please. I'm afraid you are going to beg your father to sue grandma, but the blind and lame people in the village will not come."

"What if someone comes?" Her hazel eyes seemed to be demonic.

The ridicule on the faces of the village women deepened, and they didn't believe that she had this ability at all.

"Okay, if someone can really come to help you build a house, the five families in our Hegou village will retreat three feet from now on when they see your Sang family. As long as you call, we will respond respectfully, how about it?" ?”

Zheng Quchi said in a low voice, "Yes, but in addition, you have to solemnly apologize to my elder brother and younger sister."

The village women were simply amused by her wishful thinking.

"Okay, if someone comes to help you tomorrow, this matter is up to you, but if no one comes, your Sang family must get out of our Hegou Village."

The five surnames in Hegou Village are very prestigious in the surrounding villages and have a wide network of contacts. As long as the men of their family say hello in advance, let's see who will come to help the Sang family repair the house.

Brother Sang saw that the situation was out of control, and his heart was on fire, but when he saw Brother Qing's back straight in the face of malice around him, neither humble nor overbearing, his heart felt like a ball of wet cotton stuffed.

Ugh!
He sighed heavily.

Let her, let her.

His bones were broken by the hardships of life long ago, but his brother Qing refused to give in. She even tried to protect them with a pair of immature wings. This kind of heart is sincere and beautiful, and should not be let down.

It's just that their situation will be even more difficult in the future.

-

Brother Sang always thought that Zheng Quchi's rhetoric in front of everyone was just a forced lie.

He knew that they had offended the five surnames and had no place in Hegou Village, but he was at a loss as to what to do in the future.

What made him even more disturbed was that Zheng Quchi said he had to go out for something, and then disappeared mysteriously for a day, and only came back exhausted after nightfall.
