Chapter 970 Suspending Road Construction (5)
When we arrived at the village head's house, the village head politely led Danshen into the main room, asked his daughter-in-law to make tea, and then ordered some melon seeds and put them on the table. Many villagers went there at the door or window following the machine in the yard. Probe inside, discussing something in a low voice, looking at Danshen with excited and expectant eyes from time to time.

Although the village chief was not in a hurry to ask anything, the eager expression on his face was not much different from that of other villagers. The main purpose of Danshen today was to find out if there was any hidden story about Chen Ming's going to Ruyi Village to prescribe medicine. Incidentally, I didn't bother to talk nonsense with these insignificant people. When the village chief wanted to greet him with a smile, he said bluntly: "Originally, my master planned to allocate money to hire people to build roads in the past two days. But Chen Ming from your village wants to murder my master's child, my master Chen is very, very, angry!"

The village chief's complexion changed, and seeing Danshen's cold expression, he suddenly had a bad feeling.

Sure enough, Danshen threw a bomb that everyone present couldn't accept: "Master Chen is very angry, and the consequences will be serious, so we decided to postpone the road construction in Tongfu Village."

"What!" The village chief got up in shock.

The faces of the other villagers also changed, "How come! What is a suspension! Could it be that you don't plan to repair it?"

"No way! Didn't they all say that they will be repaired? You can't stop repairing it just because Chen Ming is alone. Could it be that you want to find an excuse to shirk!"

"It's Chen Ming who hurt Qin Shuang's child. It's none of our business. You can't let the whole village suffer for him alone." The villagers chattered, hoping that Danshen can change his mind, but this decision is made by Qin Shuang and A Chen, how can he change it just by saying it?Besides, he didn't want to change at all.

If you want him to say, what is the suspension or not, it is better not to give these people a rest. Who knows how many people in this village are still thinking about his master and Ruyizhuang?But looking at the faces of these people on the day Tiandong got married, he felt that there was no good thing in this village, oh no, Zhang Qiaoting's family is still good.

Facing the chattering villagers, Danshen said impatiently: "Chen Ming is the one who prescribes the medicine to harm people, but why can he prescribe the medicine? Why does he know that Master Qin Shuang of my family is pregnant? Isn't it the Zhang family's wedding ceremony?" Did Chen Ming know what the person who drank the wedding wine said after returning to the village? Strictly speaking, anyone who mentioned that my master was pregnant after going to the wedding that day can’t get away with it.”

The villagers were at a loss for words, and wanted to say that it had nothing to do with them, but they knew very well that if Chen Ming didn't know about Qin Shuang's pregnancy, it seemed impossible for him to poison someone. It is said that they are jointly and severally responsible, but they really can't justly say that it has nothing to do with them, but they don't take it seriously, thinking that they are just talking casually, and they didn't force Chen Ming to prescribe drugs. But the village head turned his warning eyes sideways, and the few people who wanted to provoke and refute just endured it.

Looking at Danshen's expression, the village chief felt that if someone dared to have the cheek to disregard the relationship and play tricks, Danshen would definitely make this "suspension" into an infinite extension with no time limit, or even simply say no to repairing it!
The village chief is different from ordinary villagers. He still has the opportunity to contact some gentry and landowners on weekdays. After contacting these people with little status, he will naturally pay attention to some places that ordinary people would not pay attention to. Since Danshen said it was a delay, Then it means that maybe there is still room for negotiation on this matter. As long as there is still a chance, people should not let people destroy this opportunity for nothing.
