farmer's little girl

Chapter 118
Hearing this, the surrounding audience was in an uproar.

It seems that the rumors in the village were not false anymore, so Qiu Cuihe's son is really the son of Boss Qian?

The Qian family doesn't know about this, but it's not important right now. Killing someone to pay their debts and paying their debts makes sense anywhere, so the boss Qian and his brothers all jumped out and scolded Lu Guangren for not changing the subject, beating someone to death How to say.

Lizheng sighed in his heart. As a village Lizheng, he naturally didn't want people to die in the village.A homicide case is a major issue wherever it is placed, and if it is brought to the county government, it is he who is incompetent in being upright and will even damage the reputation of the village outside.

He stood up and interrupted the quarrels on both sides: "Okay, okay, listen to me first." After the noise in the field disappeared, he said again: "We are all from the same village. I usually don't look up and look down. I think both parties are unwilling to make a mess like this, but the matter has already happened, and now we should talk about how to solve this matter. Mr. Qian, you really plan to send Lu Guangren to the county government go?"

Boss Qian's second brother Qian Lao Er jumped out: "My eldest brother was beaten to death innocently, this matter is not so easy to finish."

"Let this kid pay for his life!"

Seeing that the Qian family was still so stubborn, Li Zheng became a little annoyed, "If that's the plan, I don't care about it. How do you like it? There is still Qian's second child and Qian's third child. Boss Qian’s brother, but the family has been separated, I’m asking about members of Boss Qian’s family now. Mrs. Sun, Boss Qian is your man, what’s your opinion?”

Since Mrs. Sun knew that Boss Qian had been beaten to death, she had been in a state of numbness.At this time, he heard Li Zheng asking her by name, and then he reacted.

"I, I..." She murmured, looking at her sons with a very flustered expression.

Knowing Sun's temperament, Lizheng shook his head, then turned to the Qian Maolin brothers again: "What do you brothers think?"

What kind of opinions can Qian Maolin have? Although Boss Qian has always been domineering at home and said what he said, he is his father after all. Now that he died innocently, no one feels at ease.

The third son, Qian Maosen, has always been a hot-tempered person, and at this moment he cursed with red eyes: "Killer pays for his life, debtor pays for money, let him pay for his life!"

"What do you two mean?"

Before the two brothers Qian Maolin and Qian Maoshan expressed their opinions, the Hu family over there began to cry and curse.

"It's devoid of conscience and inhumanity. The bullying has reached the door of the house. First, they stole our daughter-in-law, made my son a tortoise, and even made a wild species for our family to feed. There is no such reason in the world anymore. ... My son, why are you so pitiful, and now you have to kill someone, how can you let your mother live..."

Lu Guangren didn't know whether it was out of guilt or for some other reason, and he also burst into tears.Such a big man, crying uglier than a woman, with tears and snot running down his nose.

Seeing this scene, the surrounding villagers all sighed.

Lu Mingchuan frowned tightly, and reprimanded with a dark face: "Why are you crying? What is there to cry about? I knew why you didn't teach your son well today..."

While patting her thigh, Hu yelled back: "I'm crying for my poor son, why don't you let me cry?" She ran to the villagers and cried, "Folks, can you tell me if there is such a reason? Bullying is not like this, so whoever can bear it, besides, my son didn't do it on purpose, it's not that the money boss is not a thing, he got cheap and behaved, and even used words to provoke my son, I I just started fighting with him. No one thought that things would be like this, and it was also a momentary miss..."

It has to be said that Mrs. Hu is a very smart person, very good at manipulating people's hearts.People's hearts are for the weak, especially when the daughter-in-law was stolen and raised her son for nothing. No one can bear it, so everyone will naturally favor Lu Guangren.

"The money boss is really real!"

"That's right, the Lu family didn't come to the door when the incident happened before. Didn't they save face for him..."

This situation at this time is exactly what Hu wanted, but the words of these villagers were surprisingly embarrassing, and they didn't say clearly that the Lu family was afraid of the Qian family, so they endured this tone. Don't let it go, recognize this tortoise bastard, but the key is that Boss Qian is not a worry-free person, isn't this killing himself?

It's not good for the Lu family, and it's even worse for the Qian family. These people who watched the fun and didn't think it was a big deal just said that their father wanted to kill himself.The people in the Qian family were so angry that they wanted to go to these villagers immediately, but they couldn't say that they were wrong. Isn't that the reason? They only complained that Boss Qian was too domineering. I can't wait to ride on the opponent's head in front of my face.

Li Zheng was not surprised by this situation, even if the Lu family did not take the initiative to come forward, he would have led the matter in this direction.In fact, from the bottom of my heart, I was looking for Lu Guangren. After all, even a man couldn't bear this kind of thing, not to mention that he didn't kill people intentionally, but just missed.

"Maolin Maoshan, what do you two think? You can see that everything is here. Everyone is from the same village. You can't look up and look down. What's more, Boss Qian is not irresponsible for this matter." Li Zheng said again.

Qian Maoshan and Qian Maolin looked at each other, "Uncle Lizheng, what do you mean—"

"If it doesn't look like this, the folks in the village and I will come forward to persuade you to make peace, and the two of you should stop fighting, and discuss this matter. Let's forget about it. If you have any requests from your family, just ask. Since you call me uncle, I will Just come out with an old face and be this middleman. If you two have any opinions, come to me and tell me, and I will try my best to help you. Lu family, do you have any objections?"

Immediately, Hu wiped the tears from her face, and hurriedly said: "We have no objection." If she had any objections, she would not have cried and shouted if she had any objections.

The brothers of the Qian family were still hesitating, while some villagers were already saying, "It's still upright and righteous, and no one wants to take care of this kind of crap."

"No."

The brothers had almost been roasted on the fire, and the uncles kept winking at them. After all, they didn't express any disapproval.

Now that the matter has developed to this stage, it is probably the end of reconciliation. Naturally, no one else can intervene at this time, and the surrounding villagers all dispersed.

The second and third families were also present, but they stood behind the crowd.Seeing that everyone had dispersed at this time, they naturally walked out with the crowd.

On the way back, Mrs. Qiao said: "The big house is about to bleed now. That girl Meizi managed to buy some land for the family, and it is estimated that she will pay it to Kid Ren. The Qian family is well-known Leech, if someone accidentally picks a green onion from his house, they can find it back and dig up the vegetable patch..."

She didn't finish the rest of the sentence, but everyone could understand what she meant.

However, these things have nothing to do with them, it's just a bit embarrassing for a life to be caused.

Pressing the button, Li Zheng called the two families into the house, and sat down to discuss how to get over this matter.

Before entering the house, the second brother Qian called the three nephews aside to talk. Needless to say, they definitely wanted to use this pawn to maximize their own interests.Hu and the others are also aware of it, but their weakness is caught in their hands, and they can't deny it.

After Li Zheng said a few words on the occasion, he asked Qian's family for their opinions. They were not vague at all, and directly asked for all the land of Lu's family.

25 mu of land, 200 mu of fertile land, and [-] mu of sandy land, nearly [-] taels of silver to pay for a human life, which is not expensive.But this land is the lifeblood of the peasant family, can the Lu family agree?
Li Zheng couldn't help looking at Lu Mingchuan and the others.

Before Lu Mingchuan could speak, the Hu family exploded on the spot: "Why didn't your family go to grab it? If you want all our land, you are forcing our family to die!"

Qian Er Er rolled his eyes and stabbed: "We were not forced to a dead end by you, but one person in the family has already died."

These words directly choked the breath in Hu's throat back into his stomach.She shook her head again and again, "No, no, you are a lion with a big mouth."

There are women playing black face, and naturally there are men playing bad face.Lu Mingchuan said: "The Qian family, please discuss it again, this request is a little too much." Lu Mingchuan and the Hu family also discussed it before, and paying a few tens of taels of silver is enough. If there is no money, you can get the land. Arrival is also acceptable, but the eldest couple definitely cannot accept all the land of the Lu family.

The Qian family is very determined: "There is no need to discuss it, either it is like this, or it will go to the Yamen."

"You think we're afraid of going to the Yamen? The adulterer is an adulterer, and it doesn't matter if you beat him to death!" Mrs. Hu bite the bullet and shouted.Most likely, it was also seen that the Qian family wanted to reconcile, as long as they could reconcile, they were afraid that they didn't even have the idea of ​​reconciliation.And this statement was made by Mr. Hu and Mr. Qian at the university, and now it is used on him himself. I don't know what he thinks under the nine springs.

Qian Laosan laughed strangely: "Hey, this really doesn't scare us. It doesn't matter if the adulterer is beaten to death. That's when he catches the adulterer on the spot. Your good son is in broad daylight. If he doesn't agree with him, he will kill my elder brother." Beat him to death. Otherwise, let's go to the yamen and talk about it, and see how the judge judges you?"

Hu didn't expect this to happen, his face was turned into a liver color, and Lu Mingchuan's face was also very ugly.

Lu Guangren yelled pitifully beside him: "Mother! Father! Please help me, I don't want to go to the Yamen!" As he spoke, he began to cry again.

A big man was crying with tears and snot running down his nose. Lu Guangli standing next to him couldn't help frowning, and a look of disgust flashed in his eyes.

"But your request is too strict, what do you want our family to eat and drink in the future?" Hu was full of hesitation.

"Don't you have a rich widow?" Qian Er Er kindly reminded her.

The couple in Dafang looked at each other, Lu Mingchuan's face was cloudy, and after thinking for a while, he clenched his fists tightly and said: "Okay! Our family will give you the land, and this matter will be exposed in the future."

"of course."

When the two families were discussing when and how to hand over the land, suddenly Lu Jiaomei ran in from the outside.

As soon as she came in, she shouted loudly: "The land is mine, why should I give it to him to buy people's lives!" She looked hurried and out of breath, and as soon as she stood still, she said to Li Zheng, "Uncle Li Zheng, what is the matter?" I disagree."

Lu Mingchuan repeatedly reprimanded: "Meizi, what are you talking about, it's your turn to interrupt here."

"Meizi, you go back first, and I will tell you when my mother goes back later." Hu also said.

Lu Jiaomei didn't even look at the two of them, and continued to talk to Lizheng: "Uncle Lizheng, you are the Lizheng of our village, and you have always been fair. I bought the land for my family back then because of my filial piety as a daughter, and I thought about it." Grandpa and grandma are quite old, and my father and mother have no one to rely on for a living. They are used for their livelihood and retirement, not for people to pay for their lives. When our family bought the Majia land, you The old man is a middle-aged man, you have to say something fair for your niece."

"This..." Li Zheng was full of embarrassment, but he couldn't say anything, so he could only look at the couple with his eyes.

Lu Jiaomei knelt on the ground with a plop, "Uncle Lizheng, speaking of which, you also watched me grow up. Since I got married, I haven't returned home for many years. I'm also a niece who has a hard life. It's hard to live a little better. But the man died. He also left some money for me, but since I came home, I have paid money inside and outside the house, and bought so much land for the family, I have spent almost nothing left .I am a widow, and I looted all the things I had with me. I am not sure if I will marry or not. How will I live in the future.”

At this time, the couple in the eldest house were full of panic. First, because the daughter said that the money in their hands was spent, and second, because the daughter suddenly ran out to make such a fuss about something that had been promised, and the Qian family's conditions could not be fulfilled. The fate of the son was unpredictable.What's more, it's a kind of embarrassment turned into anger. The whole family can't support themselves, so the widows and children have to subsidize it.

In fact, people are so good at self-deception. Didn't the villagers think of this before?It's just that the people in the big room deliberately ignored it, and always felt that no one was making trouble, and there was a fig leaf to block it.Now that the widows and daughters make a fuss by themselves, it's like slapping them hard in the face.

All of a sudden, Dafang and his wife had all kinds of feelings in their hearts.

Lu Mingchuan's face darkened, "Meizi, you go back to me now! Do you still recognize me as a father?!"

Lu Jiaomei wanted to admit it, but right now her wealth and life are the most important thing.She has also seen through the past few days since she came back. Everyone in the family is extremely selfish, and she doesn't want to count on anyone in the future, so she just points to something in her hand, so as to avoid the end of being old and homeless.

When Lu Jiaomei used to be a prostitute, she met too many sisters around her. After she worked hard to redeem herself, she was finally cheated for money and sex, and ended up living on the streets.There are even some people who can't live on, and turn around and sell themselves and come back to continue working as prostitutes.

She doesn't want to end up in that field, so don't blame her.

Thinking of this, she hardened her heart, "Why don't I want to recognize my father? If I don't, I won't come back all the way. But I've been back for so long, what have my family done for me? I want to marry, but it's hard to find A son from a rich family has been harmed by the two of you. My money was squeezed out by you to buy land for my family, and my few valuable jewelry were stolen by this shameless thing. "

She stared bitterly at Lu Guangren who didn't dare to look at her, then turned her head and cried to Lizheng: "Uncle Lizheng, you have to make decisions for your niece. As the saying goes, at home, marry from your father and follow your husband. I am already a married woman." No, there is absolutely no natal family who is greedy for married women. You were a middle-aged man back then, if you didn’t let me make the decision, I would have to go to the county and smash myself to death in front of the gate of the county government.”

Well, that's right up the grill.

Li Zheng, who was always good-tempered, wanted to yell at him right now, what kind of nonsense, nonsense!

But no matter how angry he was, the matter still had to be resolved, who told him to be a middleman in the first place.In fact, it's not that Lizheng wants to be the one, but that he has always been highly respected. Generally, if there is any important event in the village, or what needs to be done between the two families, he will be invited to come forward if someone needs a middleman.

Over there, Lu Mingchuan was so angry that he jumped up and down, scolding his daughter for being unfilial. Hu's forehead also hurt, and he hated this daughter who was constantly tossing around in his heart.Compared with daughters, sons are naturally more important. Hu really feels guilty towards Lu Jiaomei, and there is no other comparison.

The Qian family watched the show from the sidelines, watching the Lu family dog ​​bite the dog, and cursed in their hearts that it was not a good thing.

"Girl Mei, you should know that this land is in your family's name. Although you paid for the money, the land deed has already been issued, so it must be difficult to get it. And boy Ren is your brother after all. Didn't you do that a little—"

Lu Jiaomei immediately said: "Uncle Lizheng, I know that my request is a bit embarrassing, but you have to think about it for me. If I am not married, I am a member of this family, and I will not marry for a day. You have to take care of me. But I'm a married woman now—"

She spoke halfway, leaving room for imagination.Then he said again: "I also hope that Uncle Lizheng will give my niece a way to live. I don't want more, and leave half of the ten acres of top-grade land for me. I won't mention the rest of it in the future. My father and mother Whether you are willing to buy someone's life or do whatever you want, it has nothing to do with me."

Lu Jiaomei had already thought about this matter, otherwise it would not have happened by such a coincidence.Before, she had to swallow her anger and let her uncle make the decision because she was angry with old man Lu, and she would not mention this matter again in the future.These days Lu Jiaomei has been looking for opportunities, that's why she took such a good opportunity to make a fuss.

"This..." Li Zheng couldn't help looking at Da Fang and his wife.

"Don't even think about it, this land is used to save your brother's life." Hu said firmly.

"You don't have to use land to save your life. You and my father will discuss with the Qian family to pay for it with money, and they will definitely be willing."

The Qian family who were watching the show immediately expressed their attitude, "We have no objection, just follow the market price."

"Is there any money in the family, don't you know?"

Lu Jiaomei sneered: "Of course I know if there is any silver at home. How much silver did he take from me? And my gold jewelry! Anyway, I don't care. If I don't return the land, I will take the land for my life." I don’t agree with the matter, it’s really pressing me, so I’ll go to the Yamen to beat the drums and complain, so that people can see how this father, mother, brother, and brother took the money from the married woman.”

There is too much information in these words, and the people on the side can hardly understand it.

Hu's face turned red and white, white and purple, and said sadly: "How did I give birth to such a wicked person like you!"

With things like this, Dafang and his wife can only suffer from being dumb.

He agreed to Lu Jiaomei's request, and discussed with the Qian family about using silver as a top-up.

Things have been discussed, the next thing is to cash in.

When the matter came to this point, another problem was encountered, that is, the land deed was kept by Old Man Lu.Don't look at the old man Lu who is useless now, he has all the house deeds and land deeds.Old man Lu has lost and recovered so many lands, but his treasures are tight, and his hands and feet are obviously weak, and he will take out the land deeds every day to have a look at them, he is very happy.

When people get older and useless, they become more and more afraid of death and become more and more fragile. When they finally have fun, everyone just lets him go.

We all know how much old man Lu cares about these lands, and now it is difficult to take the title deed out of his hands!

But no matter how difficult it was, we had to do it. The Dafang couple discussed it, and in the end they chose to tell the truth.There is no legitimate reason that can convince old man Lu, he really won't take out his life, others are useless, but his brain is not bad.

Lu Mingchuan was afraid that his father would be provoked again. Before Lu Guangren beat someone to death, he explained to his family that no one was allowed to talk in front of old man Lu, so old man Lu didn't know. All the effort was in vain.

I thought in my heart that nothing would happen, but in the end something happened.

After listening to his son's narration, old man Lu rolled his eyes and passed out on the spot.

After a while, the person turned over on his back, but he woke up, but his illness became more serious.The whole person was paralyzed on the kang, unable to move or speak.

This is really a leak in the house and it rains all night. Misfortunes never come singly.

Lu Mingchuan cried very sadly, he couldn't help but not cry, but the fact that happened recently challenged all his nerves.

The old man Lu was lying on the kang, looking at him with cloudy old eyes, and he didn't know what he was talking about.He can't move, can't speak, he can only show with his eyes, and fortunately Cui Shi has been married to him for many years, so he can figure out what he means.

Cui wiped her old tears and took out a small box from the kang cabinet, took out the land deed from it, and handed it to Lu Mingchuan herself.

After handing the things out, she couldn't help but choked up and cried. The old man Lu was also whimpering, tears streaming down his face, and he looked really pitiful.

Lu Mingchuan knelt down on the ground with a plop, and beat his head, "Father, it's all because of my incompetence, it's all because of my ineffectiveness!"

Cui quickly went to help him, "Boss, boss doesn't blame you."

Several people cried to each other before Lu Mingchuan walked out with the title deed.

Now that the land deed is in hand, the next thing to do is to collect money.

Five mu of land costs more than 60 taels of silver, but the family can't even get a copper coin.Now the eldest couple will not feel sorry for their son, they insist on forcing him to take out Lu Jiaomei's stolen jewelry.This jewelry has long been lost by Lu Guangren in exchange for silver, so where can I get it out?He didn't dare to say it clearly, he just pushed back and forth, or Lu Guangli couldn't help it for a while, slipped his mouth, and told about Lu Guangren's gambling with others.

This time it was another heavy hammer, which hit Da Fang and his wife on the heads.Lu Mingchuan was fine, but his eyes were bloodshot and he was gnashing his teeth in anger, but Hu rolled his eyes and passed out.

In just one day, the Lu family invited doctors twice in a row.If the old doctor hadn't seen that he was an acquaintance, he really planned not to come.There was nothing serious about Mrs. Hu, she was just angry and angry, and she could just stay at home for a few days, but no one thought that she would suffer from a heartache because of this.

But that's for later.

After cleaning up the house, they didn't collect enough money to give to Qian's family.

However, the Qian family got a lot of money, so they didn't want to force it. They just said that since the money is not enough, they should use the grain in the field to pay for it. At that time, Dafang's family will not have to go to the field to collect grain. The food was also transported to his home in time.

After buying the land, the Dafang people planted it immediately.However, they couldn't plant it with this little manpower, so they only kept five acres for planting, and rented out the rest.Originally thought that the land was gone, and there was still some food left, but now the house has been searched and the food is gone.

All of a sudden, Dafang's family was full of gloom, Mrs. Hu stood in the yard every day and scolded Lu Jiaomei for being cruel, but Lu Jiaomei ignored her, and closed the door in the house all day long, not knowing what she was doing.

At this time, Chen A Niu suddenly came to the door.

He also heard that something serious happened to Lu's family, that Lu Guangren hurt someone's life, and the whole family was wiped out before the incident was resolved. He was afraid that Lu Guangren would not be able to pay back his money, so he came to the door in a hurry.

This is really a house leak coincident with continuous night rain, the big house became a mess again.

Seeing that Lu's family had no money to pay back, Chen Aniu insisted on paying with the house.

There was commotion in the yard, and many people in the village heard the commotion to watch the commotion, when suddenly there was a wailing sound from the house.

It was Choi's voice.

"Old man..."
