Dressed as the heroine of the farming novel and the best relative

Chapter 25
"Lin Gouzi is so miserable. He followed his mother to Zhao's house. He only had to work at a young age. He didn't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes. He was beaten severely by Zhao Deli every day. Now he beat the child to death. Zhao Deli, you not human."

"I didn't!" Zhao Deli denied in a loud voice, "I didn't kill anyone. It was the little brat who failed to hold himself back. He died because of his own desperation. It has nothing to do with me!"

"Then what you mean is that if a random man gives you a few kicks and you die, you deserve it, right?" Xiang Xi almost laughed at his gangster's logic, "Then we are weak women, we can't do it together. If I beat you to death, will it also shorten your life?"

The people around him were furious, but they laughed on the spot when they heard this, and even cooperated with Xiang Xi to push towards Zhao Deli.

Zhao Deli glared at everyone with fierce eyes, "You want to meddle in my family's business? Let me tell you, my brother-in-law is the mayor (modern mayor) of the town."

There was a calculation in his eyes, "I just accidentally killed my stepson who stole ten taels of silver from the family. It was a family matter. Just because this boy stole the silver, it was enough to be sentenced to twenty ounces. If I beat him, he would be dead. Yes. He was at fault first, and I was at most at fault for killing someone by mistake."

The expressions of the originally indignant people turned ugly, and some even began to flinch.

This has to be mentioned that the court now pays attention to filial piety. It is a capital crime for a son to kill his father, but a father will be punished for killing his son by at most ten times. That is why there are so many ruthless elders who sell their sons.

"If someone accidentally kills a person, he will be hit with twenty boards."

"Humph, my brother-in-law is the mayor of the township!" Seeing that no one dared to provoke him, Zhao Deli suddenly became arrogant and said proudly.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from the crowd, "You said that your brother-in-law is the mayor of the township, so if you kill your stepson, you don't need to be put in a cell, right?"

Xiang Xi subconsciously looked over and saw that the middle-aged man who was speaking was wearing low-key silk and satin. The shoes he was wearing were soap boots that only your people in the yamen had. He was followed by two people for personal protection. At first glance, he was of extraordinary status.

Her mood was a little subtle. Zhao Deli wouldn't be so unlucky, would he?
In fact, Zhao Deli was really unlucky.

The person he bumped into turned out to be the magistrate himself.

Zhao Deli was still seeking death, "Who are you? Don't meddle in other people's business."

He said that he was going to drag away the unknown boy who was alive and dead underground. Seeing the panic in his eyes, he obviously wanted to destroy the body and eliminate all traces.

"Arrest him!"

"Who are you..." Zhao Deli felt weak when he saw the big knife drawn out.

"Hmph, our master is the county magistrate. He is very courageous in taking bribes and bending the law in front of the magistrate!"

Zhao Deli's expression changed instantly, as if he was bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. He knelt down and begged for mercy. Compared with the injuries on the boy next to him, he deserved it.

Xiang Xi withdrew from the crowd, knowing that this scene had nothing to do with him. It had to be said that this kid was lucky enough to meet the county magistrate, and he happened to not be a corrupt official.

"Hey, where is the girl who stood up just now?" the county magistrate asked the subordinate next to him.

The subordinates searched around but couldn't find anyone, so they had to come back to report. At this moment, the sleeping boy woke up, and the government servant who was supposed to take his body back rushed him to the hospital.

The county magistrate didn't care about other things and arrested the township head with evidence.

The boy was lucky. He was taken to the hospital and received timely treatment. His life was safe and he only needed to spend a sum of money to heal his injuries.

It stands to reason that Zhao Deli, a vicious stepfather, would definitely not be happy to pay so much money, but he couldn't bear it. He was beaten fifteen times, his skin was bruised, and he couldn't get out of bed. The money he used to compensate his stepson for medical treatment was sent directly to the hospital by the county magistrate. pavilion.

Even if Zhao Deli is not willing, he has no ability to snatch it back. He is almost paralyzed.The mayor of the town, who he called his brother-in-law, was directly imprisoned, had his house confiscated and was demoted. He couldn't protect himself, let alone help him. The news that both of them were finished quickly spread throughout the villages in Helin Town.

Xiang Xi found out the next day.

When the news spread to the village, even the village chief almost took the lead in beating gongs and drums to celebrate. In fact, the dismissed township chief was not a good person himself. In the past, things in the village needed to be understood and registered by the village chief first, and then the village chief. The chief reported it to the township chief.

Generally, all matters big and small in the village are decided by the township chief. Over the years since he took office, he is truly a corrupt official, giving himself every convenience and making things difficult for the people.

What the village chief hates most is that he has to give gifts to each other every New Year's Day. He also has to compare with other village chiefs. Those who give less will definitely be targeted next year.

"These days of frustration are finally over!" the village chief burst into hearty laughter at home. The village chief's wife celebrated by killing an old hen that day.

When Xiang Xi got the news, he and Goldman Sachs were preparing to enter the back mountain.

The villagers were all beaming when they talked about this.

Xiang Xi smacked his lips and said, "I didn't expect that they were so unlucky, so wouldn't we not have to worry about Zhao Deli causing trouble for us?"

Goldman Sachs rubbed her head helplessly, "Just now that you think about it, you will get into trouble?"

"I thought you were quite brave at the time."

Xiang Xi was justified, "He's already here. Giving in will only make him push forward. Besides, we're not in trouble at all. As the saying goes, good luck is also a kind of strength."

"So now we sell boldly, without fear of getting into trouble."

Without further ado, Goldman Sachs took Xiang Xi to search for wild peppercorns in the back mountains. Xiang Xi mainly looked for materials and exchanged them with the system.

She didn't have to worry about safety issues as she followed, and she exchanged it for a large iron pot in the system mall.

After picking about ten kilograms of wild peppers, there were no more nearby. Xiang Xi happened to take Goldman to the place where she put the iron pot.

As she walked, she explained, "I had a dream last night. In the dream, I dreamed that there was an iron pot in the woods. Why don't we go take a look."

When Goldman Sachs heard this, he thought it sounded familiar. This seemed to be the source of the ginseng from the past few days.

With doubts and curiosity, he asked Xiang Xi where the things were, and he walked all the way there. As expected, he found an iron pot half covered in the soil in the dense forest.

He dug out the soil next to it, revealing the true appearance of the iron pot. The iron pot was a little old, but intact.

Goldman Sachs only felt it was magical. Xiang Xi showed an incredible expression at the right time and said to himself, "It seems that I am really God's favorite."

She offered to go to the nearby river to clean the iron pot. You must know that this is the Kitchen God iron pot redeemed in the system. I heard that as long as you cook in it, you can guarantee the original quality of the ingredients.

Cooking in a large iron pot will taste better.

She spent 1500 points to redeem this, but she just doesn't know if the effect is real.
