The best farmhouse

Chapter 125

Dead is a big deal.

Not to mention such a strange death.

Zhao Canniang was pulled back by Granny Yun, who said in a low voice, "Let's stand back a little bit, it's bad luck to be away from the dead."

Zhao Canniang has seen everything that should be seen, and when Granny Yun said this, Zhao Canniang also felt that it made sense, so she hurriedly retreated behind the grass.

At this time, Li Zheng and the patriarch had already walked to the side of Zhao Shiyou's body. Looking at Zhao Shiyou who was already pale, Li Zheng said without hesitation: "Dafu, please go to the city quickly and invite Master Chai from the yamen. This is how Zhao Shiyou died. It's too strange, because someone should have killed him, so don't touch Zhao Shiyou's body, wait until the yamen servant arrives."

When Zhao Canniang heard Li Zheng's words, she couldn't help but raised her head and looked at Li Zheng twice more. Li Zheng also knew that it was really good to protect the scene.

The people in the village have all kinds of expressions at the moment.

Zhao Canniang even heard a lot of gloating words.

Zhao Shiyou usually does a lot of evil in the village, and many people in the village don't like him. Now that he's dead, it's clear.

The Chu family ran to the river crying, and the Yue family also had a sad face.

"You murderer! Why did you just go like this, leaving your mother alone in this world, what's the point of it!"

Chu is sad at the moment, even though what she usually does is really unpleasant, it is true that she loves her child.

The Yue family was also very angry. Zhao Shiyou was her favorite grandson, and she loved Zhao Shiyou a lot since she was a child. Now that Zhao Shiyou died like this, she really couldn't accept it.

The Yue clan squatted down and wanted to help Zhao Shiyou untie the straw vines tied to his hands, but was stopped by Li Zheng: "You can't untie the grass vines now, if you do, you won't be able to tell when the time comes , or wait for the official to come, and then talk about it after reading it!"

Li Zheng also had good intentions.

But the Yue family didn't listen: "I don't believe there's anything interesting about it. I don't believe it's useful for officials to see it. My grandson died so badly and was tied hands and feet. If he goes to the Palace of the King of Hell, he will suffer too. Don't stop him." I, I want to untie it for my grandson."

Yue Shi said that he was going to do it.

Li Zheng snorted coldly, and said to the two village men beside him: "Pull the person away from me, and don't let her mess around. Dead people are a big deal, and everything will be discussed when the officials arrive."

The Yue family was pulled aside, and the Chu family was still rational, and wanted to give justice to his child, but just watched over Zhao Shiyou's body and cried.

Zhao Canniang was already standing far away from Granny Yun.

A few women stood together behind them and said in a low voice: "It's good to die, I don't know how many girls will be harmed if I don't die."

When Zhao Canniang heard this, she didn't look back to see who was standing behind her.

Then I heard a woman answering: "That's right, this Zhao Shiyou died early, and the real thing is not a thing. I heard that he actually gave him a 13-year-old girl from the village next door."

"13 years old? He can do it, how will the girl get married in the future!"

"Don't go out and say this. I also heard this from a close aunt in the village next door. I don't know if it's true or not. In short, in my opinion, this Zhao Shiyou is not a good thing. He deserves it when he dies. We There are also many girls in the village who have been molested, and in my opinion, none of the Yue family is a fuel-efficient lamp."

When Zhao Canniang heard these words, she just smiled inwardly.

The other woman spoke even softer, and said in a low voice: "Now that little slut Zhao Yuniang is married, the little pervert Zhao Shiyou is also dead, and that villainous Zhao Quanmin has gone to nowhere. In our village, I think we will be able to live a quiet life in the future.”

"It's not..."

Just when Zhao Canniang thought it was fun to hear, an aunt standing behind suddenly whispered to Zhao Canniang: "Canniang, what do you think when Zhao Shiyou dies?"

After all, they were so close together, Zhao Canniang couldn't pretend that she didn't hear it, but it was this question that made Zhao Canniang and her husband feel speechless.

I have to answer carefully, otherwise I will be criticized by others, so I bite the bullet, Zhao Canniang turned her head and said with a smile: "I don't have any ideas, his family has nothing to do with me now, let alone his father killed my grandfather, saying Take pity on it! I can’t say it at all, let’s say I feel lucky, after all, it’s a life, so just watch the excitement like someone else.”

After Zhao Canniang finished speaking, she smiled slightly, and the aunt who asked the question smiled coyly, but did not hear the answer she was interested in.

Zhao Dafu went to the city and came back soon, followed by officials.

Two officials wearing official costumes with big knives pinned to their waists walked up to Zhao Shiyou's body in a majestic manner.

Zhao Canniang took a look and recognized the two officials who used to come to the village frequently to arrest Zhao Quanmin.

Obviously the two officials are very familiar with the Yue family.

Seeing the corpse lying on the ground, the official officer couldn't help frowning and said: "At first glance, he was killed by someone. As for the person who was pushed into the river to die, he was killed and thrown into the river. I have to wait for Wu Zuo to come over and have a look, some of you will carry the body to Yizhuang."

After the official sent a few token words, one of the officials approached Li Zheng to ask some simple questions.

Because this is the murder of a dead person, it is a murder case, so it will not follow the normal funeral customs.

Sending Yizhuang to Wu for inspection is the first step.

Chu also wanted to give justice to her son, so she stepped aside very cooperatively, and then told the official when Zhao Shiyou left and how he found these things.

The corpses were all carried away, and the spectators naturally didn't have much energy to watch.

Zhao Canniang followed the crowd back to her home.

Qin's flipped the taro chips in the yard, so that they would be turned over every once in a while, and it would be much faster to dry in the sun.

Seeing Zhao Canniang coming back, Qin asked, "What happened outside?"

Zhao Canniang sat back in front of the stool where she cut the taro and replied, "It was Zhao Shiyou who died, and after a strange death, Lizheng called the officials."

Qin looked at Zhao Canniang in disbelief and asked, "Zhao Shiyou died? How did he die?"

Zhao Canniang shrugged and said, "How do I know how he died, but seeing that Zhao Shiyou was bound hands and feet, if he hadn't been murdered to death, he would not be able to tie himself up himself!"

When Qin heard what Zhao Canniang said, she thought it made sense.

Qin sighed: "Don't go running around in the village recently, and don't listen to those gossips, anyway, we just do our own thing."

What Qin said was actually just not wanting to cause trouble.

What's going on now is a human life lawsuit, not a trivial matter.

Zhao Canniang also knew that she was a little active, and felt that she was becoming more and more like a child, and she was not mature and sensible at all: "Mother, I know, I won't go out these few days, I will behave myself at home Cut the taro."

Because all the taros at home were washed, Zhao Canniang was worried that it would go bad if left for a long time, so after discussing with Qin, she borrowed a lot of dustpans from the village, and put all the chopped taros on the roof, so that As a result, there are more places to dry.

In the evening, someone knocked on the door suddenly.

Zhao Canniang opened the door, only to see an official servant standing at the door.

"Is there anything wrong, sir?"

Zhao Canniang guessed.The official messenger should have come to ask about Zhao Shiyou.

"Where's your lord?" The officer's voice was cold.

Zhao Canniang turned sideways, opened the door, and said to the officer, "Master officer, please come in! My mother is selling in the yard."

The officer followed Zhao Canniang into the yard, but Zhao Canniang didn't close the door, mainly because she was afraid of gossip.

Seeing that an official came, Mrs. Qin stopped what she was doing, turned around and entered the room, and when she came out again, she moved a stool.

"Please sit down, sir. Is there anything we can help you with?" Qin asked, but she stood aside.

The officer had seen Qin Shi last time, and he still had a good impression of Qin Shi. After all, Qin Shi was not as unreasonable as other women.

"You should know about the murder case. I just want to ask if you have seen Zhao Shiyou when you went down yesterday?"

Mrs. Qin shook her head: "Yesterday, my daughter and I were cutting taro to dry at home. I didn't see Zhao Shiyou. I'm not afraid of your jokes. My husband died. We are all afraid of right and wrong, so we rarely open the gate of the courtyard."

The official frowned: "What is your relationship with the Zhao family?"

Qin smiled wryly: "What can I do! The official also knows that my father-in-law was killed by that family, and my husband-in-law was also tricked by Zhao Quanmin into gambling and addicted to drugs. I, a woman, don't want to go If you cause trouble, you can hide as much as you can.”

The official knew about these things, and stood up with a sigh: "I just came here on a routine basis to ask, you guys don't go out often recently, after all this murder case happened, and I don't know who the murderer is, it's always good to be careful."

The Qin family blessed the official, so the official sent him to leave directly.

After sending off the officials, Zhao Canniang walked into the yard, but she saw Mrs. Qin sitting on a chair, sighing, "You heard me just now, and I don't want to go to the village in the near future. It just so happens that the weather is fine these days. We cut the taro and dried it at home."

Zhao Canniang smiled and nodded.

Because of Zhao Shiyou's death and the door-to-door questioning by officials in the village, people were panicked.

On the second day, the word came.

Zhao Shiyou was beaten to death, and he was thrown into the river after being beaten to death, and the grass and vines tied to Zhao Shiyou's hands were only found near the creek on the upper mountain, so the officials suspected that Zhao Shiyou was in the upstream creek. Those who were beaten to death on the side and then thrown into the water may have rushed into the river at the head of the village yesterday because the current was not very strong.

Grandma Zhao Can only understood what had happened after listening to Sister Yan's babbling at home.

Qin stood aside and said nothing.

Just listened silently.

In fact, Qin's heart is very comfortable, and she is also very happy about Zhao Shiyou's death. After all, Zhao Shiyou still wanted to humiliate Zhao Canniang. Such behavior cannot be forgiven in Qin's heart.

The village was in a state of anxiety for several days.

Finally, on the fifth day, news came from the official messenger that the Chu family could bring Zhao Shiyou's body back and bury it.

And the murderer who killed Zhao Shiyou was also caught.

Such news made the people in the village breathe a sigh of relief.

Because Li was telling every family to go to the ancestral hall, so Zhao Canniang went.

When Lizheng told everyone that the murderer was Wang Qinghu, it was obvious that Zhao Canniang saw joy on everyone's faces.

It's not a good thing to say that the two of them are not good.

Li Zheng looked at everyone's curiosity, and said: "Then Wang Qinghu himself said that he killed Zhao Shiyou in the end because he had a dispute with Zhao Shiyou. The matter is resolved, and everyone should be relieved."

Zhao Canniang walked with Sister Yan, passed by Chu's yard, and heard Chu's voice hoarse from crying, she couldn't help but sighed.

Zhao Shiyou's death was just a small episode in Zhao Canniang's life.

Not a few days later, He Xiangu came again.

In the yard, Qin looked at He Xiangu with a smile on her face.

He Xiangu was in a good mood, so she said: "I asked the master and wife of the Chen family, and they all said that Qingfeng of your family is still in the stage of starting a family, and it is not appropriate to waste extravagance, just follow the general etiquette. Please invite the relatives of both parties to have a meal together and get to know each other."

When Qin heard these words, she was really moved. It was rare to meet such a well-educated and reasonable family as the Chen family.

"Thank you, He Xiangu."

Qin was very excited.

Zhao Canniang was also in a good mood standing on the sidelines. Miss Chen's family will be ready for two years, and it will be just right to marry Zhao Qingfeng at that time, but I don't know how long Chen Zhongqiu's marriage will be.

Seeing that Mrs. Qin spoke politely, He Xiangu smiled and said, "You don't have to be so polite, how old is your Canniang?"

He Xiangu also visited the Qin family many times, and had a good impression of Zhao Canniang.

Qin Shi smiled slightly, knowing that she has established a good relationship with He Xiangu, and she can only have good things for Canniang's marriage in the future.

Then he said: "Channiang is twelve years old, but she is usually very solid, and the girl has a boyish personality. I am just worried about her marriage in the future!"

When Zhao Canniang heard what Qin said, she couldn't help pouting in dissatisfaction, and said, "Mother, be careful to scare He Xiangu away by saying this."

He Xiangu chuckled: "I think your Canniang is very good, I like her true temperament, but you don't have to worry too much, I have been a matchmaker for so many years, and I have seen everything. Your Canniang is really a good girl, and she will definitely be a good girl in the future." There are good people, if I see the right one, I will definitely introduce you to Canniang when the time comes, so don’t dislike me when the time comes.”

Hearing that He Xiangu was going to tell Zhao Canniang about her marriage, Qin was in a good mood: "I'll just say thank you here first, we Canniang will be blessed in the future."

He Xiangu was busy with work, so she left after sitting down for a long time.

It was as if a big stone had fallen from Qin's heart.

"The master and wife of the Chen family are really good, and this is also Qingfeng's blessing."
