Everyone in the Qiu family felt a thump in their hearts, and they all understood that Gu Yuncheng was going to settle the score afterwards.Sister-in-law Qiu and her daughter lowered their eyebrows and had a good attitude of admitting their mistakes. Zhang Jinxiu also lowered her head, hiding the guilty look on her face.
"Since you are ready to be a thief, you must have thought clearly about the consequences of being caught, right?" Gu Yuncheng turned to Gu's mother and said, "Mom, let's report it to the official and send these little thieves to jail."
Sister-in-law Qiu's face showed fear, and she knelt down to Mother Gu: "I know I was wrong, Auntie, please let me go this time. Tingting is still so young, she can't go to jail."
They were all mothers. Gu's mother was angry at her calculations, but also somewhat sympathized with her experience. She sighed and turned around and stopped talking.
"If you don't want to go to jail, you have to cooperate. First write a confession and explain clearly what you did and who came up with the idea, and then you can give me money."
"I just accompanied my sister-in-law here to borrow money. I didn't do anything else. I won't write this confession." Zhang Jinxiu said.
"Are you still adamant?" Gu Yuncheng said and found a money bag from Zhang Jinxiu's body, "You wouldn't say that my money bag grew legs and slipped into your sleeve, right?"
Zhang Jinxiu's face changed drastically. When did he notice it?
"How about it? Do you want to write it or not? If not, I will send it to the government directly."
Being caught in the act, what else could Zhang Jinxiu do?I could only write a confession and an IOU obediently.
Gu Yuncheng took the money back and collected the confessions from several people before allowing them to leave.Zhang Jinxiu said angrily: "We have already written the IOU, which means we borrowed it. Why did you take the money back?"
Gu Yuncheng said unceremoniously: "When did I say I wanted to lend you money? This IOU is compensation for the trouble you caused in the Gu family!"
After walking out of the Gu family's door, several people looked at each other in shock. This time they really lost a lot of money and lost a lot of money!
Zhang Jinxiu was depressed and couldn't figure out why there was someone hiding in Gu Yuncheng's room. She wouldn't tell Sister-in-law Qiu about this, but she could discuss it with Qiu Lang when she got back. Could it be that the Gu family had offended someone?
The Zhang family still didn't know what was going on, but they felt that the attitude of the Gu family had become obviously ambiguous, and the marriage was being pushed back again and again. Zhang Dalai, who originally planned to use the bride price as a ransom, failed, and had no choice but to surrender. corvée.
Not seeing Gu Yuncheng in the crowd, Zhang Dalai felt very uncomfortable. Gu Yuncheng exempted himself from the corvee, so why couldn't he give his would-be father-in-law ten taels of silver?
Others are also saying goodbye to their families, some are happy and some are sad.
The peaceful days did not last long. Soon some officers and soldiers came over. They did not know what they said to the village chief and left quickly.
In the evening, another announcement was made to the village - the food above was not enough, so they had to deliver rations to their families in the following days. If they did not deliver, they would starve, but they still had to do it. If you do things on an empty stomach, you can imagine the consequences.
The villagers complained non-stop, scolding the government for not being a good person and asking people to do work without paying them. Now they don't even have a stutter. It's really killing people!
Zhang Jinxiu stood beside Li Zheng, looking at the villagers below with a smile.Her uncle, who was working as an errand in the government office, mentioned the fact that the government was out of money when he came home a few days ago.
The previous county magistrate made too much money and the internal treasury was empty. Everyone who was in charge knew about this matter, but the new county magistrate was the only one who kept it a secret.
At that time, she realized that this was an opportunity, an opportunity that could make her and Qiu Lang famous!
For this reason, she went to the government office several times in the past few days. Not only did she contact Master Zhao through her uncle's convenience, but she also used the excuse of visiting the little girl to hit up Li Shen, the county magistrate's son.Although she didn't know why the Li family thought she was Li Shanlan's benefactor, it was a good thing for her, so she deliberately didn't reveal it.But there is no rush now, she has to wait, wait until things get bigger, and then she can take action to highlight her role even more!
The villagers scolded him, but they still prepared the meals the next day and sent them to his family.There is no way, the people above do not regard the lives of the people as their own, but they cannot care less about their relatives.
"The stone was so big that it had to be carried by three or four people. The rope was so worn that the clothes were torn. Some people even fainted while doing it. The official didn't even look at it and just whipped him. Throw him over, punch and kick him to get him up and continue working." The person who spoke looked a bit unbearable and sighed.
Everyone knows that corvee labor is hard, but now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I feel that it is a miracle that I came back alive!
Although family members sent food, there was no good food in the countryside. It was just to fill the stomach. In addition, he had to do heavy work every day, and the first death soon appeared.
The first person to die was a man from Zhangjiacun named Zhang Yang.His parents died when he was very young, leaving him alone.The people in the village saw him as pitiful and gave him a mouthful of food. He grew up slowly and married a wife in the village, who gave him a son.
Now that Zhang Yang has gone, leaving behind orphans and widows, they don’t know what to do next.
Zhang Qing cried miserably when he heard the news. His son was still young and couldn't understand why his mother was crying so sadly. He kept saying "Mom, don't you cry" while wiping his mother's tears.
When everyone saw this scene, they couldn't bear it, and they all came forward to comfort him.
Unexpectedly, the daughter-in-law went to the government office the next day, wanting to seek justice for her husband, but was thrown out before even entering.
Zhang Jinyue listened to the villagers talking about this matter, and she frowned lightly. Judging from the way the rumor incident was handled last time, the county magistrate gave her the impression that he was an upright and good official. Could it be that she was wrong? People?
Or is there something wrong here?
After returning home, Zhang Cuihua told her about delivering food, and Zhang Jinyue agreed casually, leaving only a little leftover food.
Qingshan Town, Hongsheng Restaurant.
"Come on, come on, everyone, please come quickly." Zhang Bode invited people in diligently.
The few people who came in were dressed in silk and satin and were famous businessmen in Qingshan Town.
They chatted each other, and did not forget to inquire about Zhang Bode's tone, "I wonder what the master is going to do by calling us here this time?"
"Could it be related to the new county magistrate?" Shopkeeper Tong guessed.
"Well, I'm an errand, so I don't dare to speak ill of the county magistrate! Don't worry, everyone, the master will be here soon, but I dare say it is a good thing."
Hearing that it was a good thing, everyone felt confident and sat down calmly to talk about the newly appointed Magistrate Huang.
They had a bad relationship with Magistrate Huang during the Chinese Valentine's Day Lantern Festival last time, and they have all gone into hiding recently. After all, people don't fight with officials.Now that Mr. Zhao is taking the lead, he can just come and test the situation. It would be best if the situation of the previous county magistrate is maintained.
