One side came prepared and the other was secretive. Village Chief Wu had completely believed Chu Yi's words at this time. He was just trying to catch people and seize stolen goods. If he wanted to put this matter to a complete end, he must put the evidence in front of everyone. , then it will be impossible to decide whether the Wang family recognizes it or not.
It’s just that after living in the same village for decades, Village Chief Wu still wanted to save Mr. Chu’s dignity, so he asked: “Brothers from the Chu family, you’d better take out the things yourself, so as not to worry about it. Everyone’s faces look bad!”
Before Mr. Chu could respond, Mrs. Wang shouted: "No! Why should we search? We can't search! None of you can enter my shop!"
Seeing that Chu Yi had spoken firmly just now, but Wang's lips were already purple from the cold, and her words were trembling, and she was still trying desperately to stop him, Mr. Chu also guessed that there was something shady about his shop. I hesitated for a moment: "This..."
Village Chief Wu's patience was already limited, and he had been tortured for so long at night. Seeing that Mr. Chu was still hesitant at this time, he immediately withdrew the little compassion he had shown earlier, waved his hand and said, "Come on, come on. , Chief Chu, I think we should go alone!"
Everyone followed Village Chief Wu to the yard of Uncle Chu's house, and successfully found the set of molds sent by Xie Jinbao from the shop. Not only that, they also found many yellow burnt paper piled in the corner of Uncle Chu's shop. , at first glance, it seems that I have prepared myself to buy paper money later.
"Look, look, all the paper money has been bought, and they said they don't plan to do this business. Why do they have so much money if they don't do business? Who can burn such yellow paper money!"
Another aunt also said to the person next to her: "No, you just said it with all your heart, but you are fooling the devil!"
Village Chief Wu took the mold in his hand and looked around, then handed it to Chu Yi: "Is this what you said you were taking? Where is the mark? Point it out for everyone to see!"
Chu Yi finished the mold with one hand, and then pointed to a very inconspicuous position on the inside of the mold: "Here, when I made this mold, I carved the character "Chen" here, which is my wife's surname."
Village Chief Wu took advantage of the candlelight in the house and took a closer look. Sure enough, he saw a small "Chen" character where Chu Yi's finger was. His face suddenly became even more ugly. He turned to question Wang who had been brought to the shop. And Li: "This word is clear at this moment. If you don't talk about stealing from the juniors, you are still spreading rumors in the village and pretending to be ghosts to scare everyone. What else do you have to say!"
"I, the village chief, I don't want to scare everyone, I..."
Chu Ren quickly stepped forward and tried to explain: "Village Chief, Aniang is just confused and obsessed for a moment. She doesn't really have any opinions about our village, and she doesn't really want to scare the villagers. With this mold, how can anyone do it themselves?" There are also words engraved on the tools, and the thief, why did he help Chu Yi and the others? Folks, think about it carefully, is everything that happened today a coincidence? This is obviously all Chu Yi They can't stand my grandma, so they set a trap specifically for her!"
"Yes! That's right, they set a trap for me. The son of Xie Daqiang who stole the things is named Xie Jinbao! Their family is Shen's natal relative, and they set a trap for me!"
Chu Ping was furious when he saw that Wang and his son were so able to confuse right and wrong: "Chu Ren, why are you so shameless? Everyone else has nothing to do, right? I just set a trap for your family!"
The eldest brother of the Shen family, Shen Chuanbai, also said: "The Xie family has no blood relationship with the Shen family! If we really have a serious discussion in this village, no one has any relationship! If you don't have any evil intentions, how can you do it? He knows so much about our village and a relative in our family who is not even a relative!"
Chu Yi took two steps forward and said calmly to Chu Ren: "My cousin is right, what happened today was indeed my intention. I was the one who found the Lu family, and so were all the folks here. , when rumors started to spread in the village about the nonsense about the ancestors’ dreams, I guessed that it was all done by the eldest uncle, so I followed her and confirmed with my own eyes that she had done all this, so I took the opportunity to find out today. We all came here to put an end to this matter. Otherwise, if it doesn't continue like this, my aunt has taken a fancy to my family's business, so she resorted to some unscrupulous means to get it. She obviously doesn't like the business, so she makes up some more. Rumors make people’s lives uneasy. Don’t do that in the future.
If it’s my shop, then the whole village may not be having a good time! "
Zhao Cheng echoed: "Well, if you like this family's business today, you will come out to pretend to be a ghost. If you like someone's field tomorrow, I might poison you and plant some seeds in the ground." If you can’t eat whatever comes out, then you have to sell it at a low price!”
Chu Ping nodded in agreement: "Maybe I'll look at someone's girl and do this again!"
"Stop spouting nonsense! Villagers have lived in the same village for so long. When did my mother-in-law do these things to you! What happened today is really a trap set by Chu Yi. You must be taken advantage of by him. !」
Mrs. Qian was afraid of Chu Ren's few words, and the provocative villagers felt that Chu Yi had ulterior motives, so they hurriedly stepped forward to help: "So I am also the daughter-in-law of the Chu family. I also understand that the ugliness of this family should not be made public. With my cousin, Tang Aunt Erbi, I am a junior, and it is not my turn to comment on some things, but today in front of the village chief, clan chief and everyone, even if I am said to be disrespectful to the elders, I have to say this!
In the past few years, Ayi has done a lot of work for the family. Since the family was divided, the coffin business and the work in the fields have not only depended on himself. Help from time to time. As a result, when it came time for me to get married, I was not even willing to get a decent betrothal gift, and even if my children bought their own things, they would still be questioned by you! It’s not easy to get a good marriage. The young couple wants to do some private work on their own, and there’s no one to help them. They’ve made money, but you still have pink eye. You’re asking for money every day to cause trouble. It’s even more powerful now. He immediately started to scare the whole village, and even found someone to steal things. You have been sucking his blood for so many years, but you haven’t sucked enough. You have to squeeze out every drop of his blood, right? "
Ms. Wang was struggling desperately, as if she was about to pounce and tear Mr. Qian apart: "Fart! Mr. Qian, please stop spreading rumors, what the hell does it have to do with you!"
"Who said it doesn't matter! Who knows if you, who are greedy enough and have drained Chu Yi's blood, will target our family again! I think everyone in this village has to be careful. It's not good to be targeted by you!"
"Qian!"
How could Grandma Chu tolerate Qian's derogatory remarks like this? She rushed over with a quick step and said, "Qian, it's not your turn to speak. What do my family's affairs have to do with you?"
Grandma Yu interrupted Grandma Chu's progress with a cane: "What's the matter, you dare to do it and you are afraid of others! What is wrong with what my daughter-in-law said? You dare to touch her and try it!"
The people in the village were also whispering at this time. To be honest, although they all knew that Uncle Chu's family was not very good, in the end, it was other people's family affairs and had nothing to do with them. As long as there was no personal stake involved, , it should be as it should be, but things are different now. If Wang and Li dare to scare the whole village for money today, they might be able to do something tomorrow!
"Yes, Mr. Qian is right. From now on, who knows if his family will be interested in someone else and give bad ideas to someone else. I don't dare to have contact with such a person!"
"No, no, my home is very close to his. When you say that, I almost want to move!"
"Yeah, if something happens again one day, your house is right next to his house, so we shouldn't start from your house!"
The more the man thought about it, the more frightened he became, as if he could already see the scene of his family being tortured by that Wang family: "No, no, no, I don't dare to be a neighbor with such a person!"
Village Chief Wu was given a headache by all these discussions and noises. He waved his hands to signal everyone to stop. Then he looked at his grandfather and said, "The matter of Mr. Wang stealing molds from Mr. Chu Yi and his wife is a family matter of your Chu family. Do not talk to them." The one with the closest blood relationship and the highest level of seniority is you, brother of the Chu family. It’s up to you and the leader of the Chu family to decide what to do about this matter!”
Although my cousin has really disliked some of the practices of that family over the years, he is Chu's cousin after all. The Wang family and Li family were mainly responsible for making mistakes this time, so he was discussing with the Chu clan leader. After a moment, he turned around and said to Mr. Chu: "My cousin, your family is really sorry for Mr. and Mrs. Ayi. Since we broke off the relationship last time, we really don't want to have any more trouble in the future. But Wang and Li These two women must not be able to stay, especially the Wang family, who has caused a lot of trouble.
It's time to go out and write a divorce letter and send it back to your parents' home! Tomorrow you should hurry up and pay compensation for the losses suffered by Ayi and his wife. You must also ensure that you will not interfere in Ayi's family's paper money transactions in the future. What do you think, Ayi? "
Before Chu Yi could speak, Mrs. Yu said: "Even if you don't know about this incident, you still condone and acquiesce in the Wang family's temper. If you only punish the Wang family and the Li family, it will be an advantage for you! You can't get involved. To righteous them, we must let them establish a written document!"
"No! We can't make peace! We can't make peace! I gave birth to a scholar to your Chu family, why do you let me go back to my parents' home! His father, you are talking! Why do you ask an outsider to interfere in our family affairs!"
Uncle Chu had experienced too many things tonight, and he was completely confused. But when the patriarch and his cousin asked him to reconcile, he was still reluctant: "Chief, although Mrs. Wang is a little unreasonable, she can't do it." ..."
Li Shi also hurriedly asked Chu Ren for help: "Ms., we can't reconcile, we can't reconcile!"
"Ms. Li..."
Mrs. Yuan, who had come out of the room a long time ago, immediately pushed aside the crowd and rushed out, blocking Mr. Li behind her: "Chu Ren, you Chu family must not have no conscience! Since you went to study in a private school in the town, my whole family has been against you." You are a very caring person, not only taking care of food and housing, but also married your only daughter into your family! Your education expenses have been halved over the years! You also gave birth to a fat boy named Mingxuan. ! If you, the Chu family, dare to reconcile, you have no conscience!"
"But Li did this today..."
As soon as Mrs. Yuan heard what Chu Ren said, her face turned livid, and she looked at Chu Ren with wide eyes and disbelief: "My daughter does everything for you! It's not your good mother-in-law who takes the lead!" Why should we blame everything if something goes wrong! Chu Ren, do you still have a conscience?"
If it can be dealt with as the uncle said, Chu Yi thinks it is acceptable. After all, there is really no way to eliminate Uncle Chu's family from their lives at once, but if there is no Wang family in the future, there will probably be less Many things have happened, but this is the current situation...
Village Chief Wu is old after all, and he has been tormenting Uncle Chu for half the night because of the bad things his family has done. He has long lost his patience. He looked at Uncle Chu and asked, "You are the elder in the family. It’s grandpa and daddy, you tell me, whether your family recognizes me or not!”
"This, this..." Grandpa Chu looked around at his troubled son and grandson, and then at Wang and Li who were crying together: "Village chief, although they can handle this matter today, It's a bit unethical, but it's not that serious. Just ask them to make amends to Chu Yi. Cousin, you are going to completely tear our family apart!"
Village Chief Wu couldn't help but rolled his eyes, and he looked down on Grandpa Chu's family more and more. Anyone with any brains could figure out that Grandpa Chu's family was protecting their grandchildren. Even though he was driving away the Wang family and the Li family, It's a big deal for their family, but at least they can maintain the foundation of the Chu family. They are really confused, and the whole family is confused!
"Since you don't want to reconcile, we, the village chief and cousin, can't force you."
Mr. Chu was just about to bow and say thank you, but before he could say anything, he heard Village Chief Wu change the subject: "Then move out from our mountain village, we won't be able to keep you in the village anymore!"
Grandma Chu couldn't stand the stimulation, so he closed his eyes and fell to the ground, passing out. Grandma Chu couldn't believe it, and they cried and howled: "No, no, no! Chief, you can't do this, my family Old man, young man, how can you just drive us out of the village? My grandson is a scholar! He is a scholar! Old man, old man, please wake up! What evil has our family done!"
Grandpa Tang shook his head: "Hurry up and help the man up from the ground. It's business to go to the doctor to show him!"
Village Chief Wu didn't want to quarrel with the Chu family anymore. He shook off Grandma Chu's hold on his arm and walked out, saying, "This matter has been settled. I'll give you a month."
After saying that, he took the lead to go out without looking back. Only Uncle Chu's family was left, dizzy, crying, and in a mess!
