It was after Shen Luzhu fell asleep the next day that he heard the whole story from the young couple Chu Yi and Chu Ping. The result was unexpectedly good. His only regret was that he could not see it with his own eyes yesterday. In the late night scene, he looked down at his increasingly rounded belly, and whispered to the unborn little Doudin: "Did you hear, your mother-in-law, I gave up for you last night, it's quite an interesting thing, we two Let’s discuss it. When you come out, can you please stop tossing me a little bit?”
She didn't know whether the person in her belly was agreeing or disagreeing. As soon as Shen Luzhu finished speaking, he saw a small bump appeared on his belly. He didn't know whether it was the baby's little hands or feet. It seemed to be responding to his mother-in-law. Several people inside were amazed.
While they were talking and laughing, they heard someone knocking on the door of their courtyard. Chu Li, who was already at home on vacation, hurriedly ran out and opened the door: "Cousin, cousin!"
Jiang Quan stepped forward and introduced the man behind Chu Li: "Ah Li, this is Brother Ding!"
"Brother Ding!"
When several people in the west wing saw that the Jiang sisters and Ding An were coming, they hurriedly stood up and said hello: "Brother Ding, is this the Yamen holiday and you are back to celebrate the New Year?"
Ding An responded with a smile: "The yamen hasn't had a holiday yet, but I took a few extra days off. I came back early this morning. I heard that my aunt learned about your family's affairs and wanted to come over and have a look, so I asked Jiang Girl and brother Jiang Quan, I am also responsible for this matter. I should have explained it to you in the village, otherwise there would be no way for others to take advantage of it!"
"Brother Ding, don't say that. It's just a routine matter. The case is over, the real culprit has been arrested, and A-Zhu and I have been released. There is no need to explain anything."
Shen Luzhu also echoed: "Well, even if there is no such thing, they will definitely make up some excuse to cause trouble!"
Jiang Juan also heard from Jiang Quan what happened last night this morning. I was very happy for Chu Yi and his wife: "If I hadn't had to take care of Xiaobao yesterday, I would have come with Ah Quan. I really should have seen with my own eyes the misfortune of those people. Mother also said, you must Ask them to help, otherwise she will have to teach that Wang a lesson!"
"Don't talk about your aunt. We didn't even mention it to my grandma and uncles. Even the cousins and aunts next door, as well as the grandparents and grandma, we didn't want to bother with it. After all, It was late at night and the weather was still cold, but in the end I couldn’t resist it. Grandma Tang had to talk about the old Chu family’s affairs, so she couldn’t be left out. My aunt and uncle are not in the village, so why bother with this trip!”
"Fortunately, this matter has finally been resolved..."
Just as they were talking, there was another knock on the door. The young couple guessed that it was the Cui family who came after hearing the news, or maybe the Shen family. As soon as they opened the door, the people outside were indeed a little more than everyone else. The prediction was that it was Wang's mother-in-law and Grandma Chu who were ordered by Village Chief Wu last night to move out of the backing village within a month!
Shen Luzhu had no intention of inviting the two of them into the courtyard. The matter had already reached this point, so why bother with such a pretentious trick!
Seeing that the young couple had no intention of inviting her in, Grandma Chu's face instantly changed. She was pulled down by Wang's sleeves and realized that they were here to ask for help. The two of them actually came from Village Chief Wu's house. Their family had gone to Chief Chu's house before, just to beg for mercy again and to ask Village Chief Wu to take back his words that told them to move out of the village, but the family begged hard. After a long time, unable to get the other party to take back what he said last night, Grandma Chu said that the root cause of the matter lay with Chu Yi and the two of them. Maybe as long as they relaxed, the village chief and the clan chief would agree.
But none of the men in Uncle Chu's family were willing to lower their faces to beg Chu Yi and Shen Luzhu. They couldn't resist, and in the end they had to split into two groups. The men returned home with resentment, and the women ran to the door of the Chu family's old house. , thinking that no matter what, they have to ask the couple to let go, otherwise they will really be homeless.
"Ayi, Mrs. Shen, we...your aunt and Mrs. Li are here to apologize to you! What happened yesterday was indeed their fault. You adults don't remember the faults of villains, so let's just forget about it. , I promise you that I will never deal with paper money again. Is it all your fault?"
Mrs. Wang also echoed: "Yes, yes, we will never interfere again. We will not sell paper money. We were wrong. You can do it. Okay, let's
But how can a family really drive their own family out of the village? "
The matter has been settled. Shen Luzhu didn't want to quarrel with them any more, and he no longer had any intention of arguing with them. He just said calmly: "Grandma and uncle have found the wrong person. It's not the one who asked you to move out of the village." us. "
When Mrs. Wang saw that Shen Luzhu didn't answer, she felt anxious and angry, and blurted out the words in her temper: "Why not..."
But just in the middle of saying it, he realized something was wrong and quickly changed his words: "I, I didn't mean that. Although this matter was not decided by you, it is because of your shop, right? As long as you are willing to let go, the village chief There will definitely be no problem with the team leader!"
"I've already said, don't come to us about this matter. We don't have that much ability. Grandma and aunt please come back!"
After Shen Luzhu finished speaking, he was about to return to the courtyard, but was interrupted by Mrs. Li who suddenly rushed forward: "Ms. Shen, don't go too far. Stop being so hypocritical here. Who doesn't know that this is all set up by you?" Game, now you have won, be proud of yourself!"
To be honest, Mrs. Li is extremely reluctant to come to the Chu family's old house today. Asking her to make amends to Shen Luzhu is not asking for mercy. It would be more uncomfortable than killing her. But her mother-in-law, Mrs. Yuan, specifically told her this morning that Chu I am afraid that Ren really had the idea of divorcing her and protecting his own safety. If it weren't for the Wang family who was also with him, he might have agreed on the spot. Although her mother-in-law took the initiative for her yesterday, the matter finally came to an end. It didn't work out, but she still had to be careful and submissive recently, otherwise if she wasn't careful, the anger she suffered yesterday might end up being blamed on her.
But she really couldn't figure it out. She was a scholar's daughter. She had read a lot of books since she was a child. When she grew up, she married Chu Ren, who was also a scholar. Even the elders in the Chu family were polite to her. Angry, why was she not as good as the daughter of a country midwife in the end? Why did she marry a man who had no father or mother and only knew how to do coolies, but her life was getting better and better, but now she was forced to Come and make amends to her!
Shen Luzhu looked at Mr. Li in front of him with some humor: "Yeah, I'm quite proud! I didn't steal or rob, and I was splashed with dirty water for no reason. Now the truth is finally revealed. This evil act Why can’t I be proud of the person I’ve been punished for? Sister-in-law, don’t feel aggrieved. When you planned to harm others, you should have thought of your current situation. Who could have said that you didn’t plan it? This is called self-inflicted evil. !」
"Ms. Shen! What benefits do you think you can get by driving your husband's grandma, grandma, grandma, and uncle's family out of the village? It's just a reputation as a bad woman. Since you want it so much, I will grant it to you. ! Let you taste the feeling of being pointed out everywhere. If you can, just stick to your shabby shop for the rest of your life and don’t go anywhere!"
Shen Luzhu said nonchalantly: "Really, so what? I am a wicked woman who must repay every penny spent, why should I be afraid of others? Not only are I not afraid, but when the time comes, come and tell me which village my uncle's family has moved to. Let’s let everyone in that village know why I, Shen Luzhu, am an evil woman, okay?”
"you!"
"Ms. Shen, you evil woman!" Grandma Chu also became excited when she heard that Shen Luzhu meant to go to Chu to publicize their bad things.
When Chu A'nai and the others came from Village Chief Wu's house, many villagers were already following them, coming to watch the excitement. Now that they have been lingering in front of the old house for a long time, many villagers have heard about Chu A'nai and the others. There was a disturbance at the door, and those who came to see the excitement saw the Chu family's old house surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside. Ding An strode out from behind Chu Yi and others.
"Everyone, please be patient. I am Ding An, the county police chief."
This short sentence instantly exploded in the hearts of everyone, especially the Wang family and the Li family. They couldn't believe it. Just yesterday, Chu Yi wanted to drive them out of the village, and today he arrested Yanmen's head again. Are you all invited? This is to drive them all away!
"I came here because I heard that the village recently had some objections to the fact that Chu Yi and his wife were invited to assist in the investigation and handling of the case. I would like to explain it to the villagers here, and also ask you to talk to the people you know when you go back. Let me tell you, they were just the victims of that case. We invited them to the county government office just to ask for their help in solving the case. If anyone spreads rumors in the future, it will not only be a false accusation against the couple. People are so simple, still
If I have any objection to the county magistrate's conclusion of the case, then I have to ask this person to go to the Yamen and have a good talk. After all, slandering the court official's unclear conclusion of the case and engaging in malpractice for personal gain is a serious crime that will implicate the nine ethnic groups! "
As soon as these words came out, those who had spread the word intentionally or unintentionally took a breath of cold air, especially Wang and Li, whose faces turned pale!
The onlookers quickly clarified their relationship: "I told you a long time ago that the Hu family in Wufang Village is clearly to blame for that matter. What does it have to do with the Chu family couple!"
"That's right, we are the ones who can trust them the most!"
"No, I don't know how those wicked people dare to make up any nonsense they think!" After this person finished speaking, he rolled his eyes at the Wang family and Li family in front of the old house, and almost said that he would arrest them if he wanted to. It has nothing to do with others!
Ding An nodded calmly: "It's okay if you don't. When we were in the Chu family courtyard just now, Chu Yi and his wife also told me that they had explained to me that most of those spreading rumors were deceived by thoughtful people. They also begged for a long time. Love, saying that I want to let go of those who have been taken advantage of."
Ding An made up all these lies and made the villagers who were watching feel guilty. They all thought that they should not have listened to the wind and rain in the first place. How could they question the young couple after hearing some rumors? Obviously What a good person!
"Those who have been deceived and used can be forgiven once, but the mastermind behind this is..."
As Ding An spoke, he turned his attention to Wang and Li. When he saw him, Wang suddenly felt frightened, as if his heart was about to jump out. At this time, there was nothing else that could make Chu Yi and the others relax. The idea of preventing oneself from being evicted is the right way to escape.
When I thought of this, I quickly squeezed out of the crowd and ran towards the end of the village!
It is said that Uncle Chu's family had the news that they were going to sell their new house that day, and he hurriedly started looking for a future residence in another village. Before the New Year's Eve, the whole family moved there, and it seemed as if he had moved there quickly. It seemed like there was some kind of jackal, tiger or leopard chasing him behind him.
