Two men who had been hiding in the shadow of the woodshed suddenly rushed out, pushed Li Jia to the ground, and tied his hands behind his back.
"What are you doing?" Li Jia exclaimed.
Yang Ruoqing said: "You are Li Zheng, and you are also his brother, and you are another person responsible for this Shanyuan."
"If your brother is like this, you are also suspected, so you must be handed over to the government for interrogation!"
Several village elders from Lijia Village originally planned to come up together to help Li Yi ask for a few words of love.
After all, they were from the same village, and his nose was in the way of his face. Even if Li Yi went too far, it was not illegal to say a few symbolic words of conciliation.
Furthermore, not saying a word of mercy would seem inhumane.
However, they waited in line to speak behind Li Jia, and saw Li Jia's end.
Immediately, several village elders stepped back in tacit agreement and shut their mouths wisely.
This is already the case, why are you still asking for help? Isn’t this just rushing into the muddy water?
They haven't lived enough and don't want to go to jail.
Even if the investigation is clear and he is acquitted in the end, is a place like a prison accessible to normal people?
Not to mention how dirty and terrifying it was, I heard that rats were bigger than cats, fleas could be as big as a tortoise, snakes hung on the stone slabs above my head, and dirt and feces were everywhere on the ground.
When people get there, no matter whether you are guilty or not, you should be tied up and whipped first.
Or they could throw you into a waist-deep water prison and soak you for two days and two nights until you are trembling all over, your muscles and bones are soft, and your skin has become white and wrinkled. Then you are taken out and thrown into the prison for further interrogation.
How many rounds can they last with just a few old bones in their bodies?
Don't give up your life in jail before you can find out your innocence during the trial. That will be a big loss!
So at that moment, the village elders not only shut up, but also stepped back, clearly delineating a Chu-He-Han boundary with the Li brothers.
…
Yang Ruoqing deliberately imprisoned brothers Li A and Li Yi in the same woodshed. In order to prevent Li Yi from committing suicide, Li Yi's mouth was stuffed with cloth strips and his body was tied up.
Li Jia, on the other hand, only had his hands tied behind his back and was not restrained in other aspects.
Yang Ruoqing left two of her men to watch, while she left the woodshed with Yang Huazhong and the others.
When passing by the front yard, everyone went to the fat sister-in-law's house to visit Erjun.
Yang Huazhong said: "Tomorrow I will send a carriage over. Fatty Sister-in-law, you and Dajun will take Erjun to the big medical clinic in the town to treat his injuries."
The fat lady nodded and said with sobs, "Okay, okay."
When you go to town to treat an injury, you need to bring at least two taels of silver.
The fat lady has been working in Shanyuan for the past two years. Although her salary is good, she used part of the money to pay off debts, which she just paid off last year.
Next, I started saving money, and I kept all the money I had saved.
She plans to give all the money to the Maharaja a hundred years from now.
There is only one purpose, and that is to let the king, for the sake of all the money, give the idiot brother Erjun a bite to eat, and prevent him from living on the street.
Over the past year or so, I have saved nearly ten taels of silver.
"Even if I try to sell the iron, I will cure Erjun's head first this time!" The fat lady secretly swore in her heart.
At this time, Yang Ruoqing suddenly handed over a piece of silver: "This is the medical fee, it's mine."
The fat sister-in-law looked at Yang Ruoqing in astonishment, then realized what she was doing and shook her head quickly: "No, no, no, I have money, I have it, but I can't ask for your money from my boss!"
Yang Ruoqing said: "I will ask Li Yi to compensate me for this money later. This is an advance payment. You can take it!"
Next to him, Yang Huaming, a heart-warming and beautiful young man, also gently advised the fat wife: "Take what is given to you. Li Yi should be the one to pay for what you have suffered!"
Yang Huazhong also nodded, "Take it, there's nothing you can't accept!"
Since everyone said so, the fat lady accepted it.
After accepting it, he thanked Yang Ruoqing profusely.
On the way back, there was silence.
When we arrived at the door of the house, although it was already midnight, the lights in the third-bedroom courtyard were still on, and the lights in Lao Yangtou's house were also on.
Obviously, both Sun and Lao Yangtou are waiting for them to come back!
"What's going on? Do you want to go in and sit down?" Yang Huazhong asked.
Yang Yongjin said: "Go, I can't sleep even after I go back!"
Yang Huaming said: "The old man has been staying up late waiting for us, so let's go in and discuss the follow-up matters."
Yang Ruoqing glanced in the direction of Luo's house. Such a large yard was completely plunged into darkness.
At this point, both children should be sleeping soundly, so it doesn't hurt to go back later.
"Then I'll go too."
In the third room, everyone gathered in Old Yangtou's room.
The old man's face was indeed not sleepy at all. Seeing that everyone was back safely, the old man breathed a sigh of relief.
"I heard you all hurriedly left in the middle of the night, but I didn't dare to ask, and I didn't dare to sleep. What's going on? Is there anything new happening in Shanyuan?" the old man asked impatiently.
Yang Huazhong glanced at Yang Huaming: "You are eloquent, please speak!"
Yang Huaming nodded, yes, his eloquence was pretty good, but he didn't expect that his third brother would see this.
"Dad, before you talk about this, you have to promise me not to get too angry! Being too angry is not good for your health, and you are so old!" Yang Huaming said.
Old Yangtou immediately blushed, "If you want to say it, just say it quickly, don't talk so much! No matter how strong my body is, I can still bear it! Say it!"
Yang Huaming chuckled, nodded and said: "Well, you have to take a sip of tea to moisten it first, otherwise the fire will burst out of the internal organs later, and it will not be wonderful!"
Lao Yangtou forcefully patted the armrest of the wheelchair.
Yang Huaming was so frightened that he took a step back and quickly went straight to the topic, telling everything about Shanyuan.
With his good eloquence, he finished speaking in one breath, and after finishing speaking, the whole room was silenced.
Old Yangtou was left sitting in the wheelchair, dumbfounded, his mouth wide open in surprise, enough to fit a goose egg.
But the old man's hair was all covered with flames, and it soon started to burn loudly.
Finally, the old man grabbed the tea bowl at hand and smashed it on the ground. The tea bowl fell into pieces and the tea leaves and water inside splashed all over the floor.
No one in the room was surprised.
Because the old man didn't faint on the spot, it was considered that he had recovered his concentration.
Everyone tacitly agreed not to say a word, allowing the room to continue to be silent.
After a long while, the old man finally spoke up, and his first sentence was: "I was blind and misjudged Li Yi, a bastard, and even drank at the same table with him!"
Yang Huazhong, Yang Huaming, Yang Yongjin and others were all ashamed.
When it comes to drinking at the same table as Li Yi, they drink more...
The old man's second sentence was: "Yongjin, you, go back and tell Bamei and Xiuxiu that it was me who said it."
"Let's end this marriage with the Li family. What the hell, bury someone!"
