Chapter 559: Thieves Come to the Village
Chapter 559: Thieves Come to the Village
"Let them go first. No matter what the truth is, whether your granddaughter-in-law is with Liu's son or not, you shouldn't treat them like this. We are all from the same village. How can we get along with each other in the future after such a commotion? Do you really think you are officials from the county government? You can do whatever you want? It's simply lawless!
I tell you, it is not your turn to make decisions on matters of importance in the village. Do you still have me in your eyes? Ah? The village is not yours, Zhou Kui, and as long as I am still in this position, you can't make trouble in the village! Hurry up, let go, or don't blame me for not giving you, the clan leader, face!"
It was rare for Village Chief Zhou to get angry.
In the past, Zhou Kui had bullied villagers in the village in various ways. He intervened countless times, but he always let him off lightly.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Kui not only did not restrain himself, but became even more excessive. In the past, he would only bring his son to people's homes to beat them up at night, but now he bullied his fellow villagers in broad daylight in front of the whole village.
It's simply too much.
If he doesn't punish Zhou Kui severely, he will no longer be the village chief.
No one will obey him in the future.
Deterrence was still useful. Zhou Kui winked at his son, and Liu Xiang'er and Zhou Changgu were able to stand up.
"This matter is not over yet. We must go to Jiangjia Village. My granddaughter-in-law cannot be abducted in vain. Village chief, since you want to take care of it, then you should come along, Liu, why don't you lead the way?"
Zhou Kui said with a wry smile.
His eyes swept across Village Chief Zhou and finally fell on Liu Xianger.
Looking at her gloomily.
"Go ahead, who's afraid of who? I told you that my son can't take Sun away. If you don't believe me, go and see. Village chief, thank you for your presence. You can be a witness to prevent these mad dogs from biting people again. They dare to slander us in front of so many people.
Look at how my Chang Gu was beaten, with blood oozing from the corner of his mouth. Damn it, this whole family is not good people, and they will get their comeuppance sooner or later! No wonder none of the five sons can give birth to a boy, and the only one is a fool, he deserves it! It's all retribution! God has eyes!"
Liu Xiang'er had only married into the family recently and didn't know how vicious Zhou Kui was.
She dares to say anything.
Not afraid at all.
The villagers around felt relieved after hearing this.
Everyone had a smile on their face and they almost couldn't hold it back.
"You bitch, I'm going to beat you to death!" The eldest son of the Zhou family heard Liu Xiang'er calling his son a fool.
He was furious and stretched out his hand to slap someone, but before the slap could land, he was stopped by the crowd.
The villagers holding farm tools all protected Liu Xianger, not because they had a good relationship with her.
But he was venting his anger on his own family.
All these people have suffered from the patriarch's family.
They had all been bullied by the five brothers, and some of them had red eyes and were beaten until they vomited blood.
Just because he refused to choose Zhou Kui as the clan leader.
That's it.
Without exception, those who were most seriously injured were those who had few male children in their families or those who had weak personalities.
The evil ones always pick on the weak.
They became the chickens in Zhou Kui's family's plan to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.
Isn't it the one who was beaten the worst?
When they saw Liu Xianger being bullied, they felt like they were seeing themselves in the past.
Outnumbered, the head of the Zhou family could only hold back his anger and retreat.
But his eyes were fixed on Liu Xiang'er, as if he wanted to pull out her tendons and skin her alive to vent his hatred.
"Okay, stop making trouble. There's still work to be done in the fields. If you want to go, do it quickly." He was worried that Liu Xiang'er would scold him too harshly and would hold a grudge against her.
Village Chief Zhou changed the subject.
The group left Zhoujia Village and headed towards Jiangjia Village.
There were many villagers following behind, all wanting to watch the fun.
This is catching an adulterer, something that only happens once in ten years.
They no longer wanted to work in the fields, and almost half of the people in the village followed suit.
A huge crowd of people stepped into Jiangjia Village, but no one was seen.
"Huh? Why aren't you at home, Zhuzi, Yadan, Kanger, Ninger?" I arrived at the door of the house.
Liu Xianger pushed the door open first. She shouted for a long time, but no one responded.
"Go look in the fields. I guess he went to work." Zhou Changgu sat down. He still had some pain in his abdomen and his voice was weak. Just as he finished speaking, the five brothers of the Zhou family rushed in.
They searched through all the drawers and cabinets looking for him. The kitchen, backyard, bedroom, storage room and even the toilet were turned upside down.
In a short while, Jiang Zhuzi's house was turned upside down.
Liu Xiang'er was furious.
But she couldn't stop it.
On the village road, a woman who came back from the wasteland to beg for something saw hundreds of people gathered outside Jiang Zhuzi's house, holding farm tools. She was so scared that she turned around and ran away.
"Oh no! There are thieves in the village. There are so many thieves. Go back quickly! Your house is going to be robbed—"
She ran and shouted.
In the wasteland, the villagers who were nearby immediately picked up their farm tools and ran over.
Those who were far away could not hear them, but when they saw them running, they ran back out of curiosity.
Jiang Fubao took a short rest in the rocking chair in the main room.
I was half asleep and was woken up by the noise outside.
She rubbed her eyes, got up and went out.
"Wow, what happened? Did the tigers go down the mountain? Why did they come back one after another?" Jiang Fubao stood at the door and looked out with his mouth wide open.
The villagers who were supposed to be reclaiming the land all ran here.
Her grandfather was among them.
"Erya, come on, we'll follow." Jiang Fubao took a step and crossed the threshold.
Also caught up with the main force.
Pan Erya closed the door and stood guard over her.
"Right over there, a group of thieves." The woman who delivered the message pointed at Jiang Zhuzi's house and shouted.
The villagers of Zhoujia Village turned their heads in confusion.
The two groups looked at each other.
"Who are you? How dare you come to our village to steal things in broad daylight?" a man cursed.
"What? Stealing?" The villagers of Zhoujia Village standing on the outskirts were a little confused.
They stared blankly.
"Wait, they are from Zhoujia Village! I know them!" Some people with sharp eyes recognized them at once.
"You dare to steal from such a close distance, are you from Zhoujia Village not thinking about it? Get out of here now!"
"roll--"
"Get out of here quickly, or I'll beat you to death—"
"..."
The crowd began to make noise.
Village chief Zhou squeezed out and hurriedly stopped them. He wanted to explain, but his voice was too soft and the other side couldn't hear him at all. He had no choice but to raise his arms above his head and shake them frantically.
"Dong, Dong, Dong--" As the sound of knocking pots rang out, the villagers finally quieted down.
Jiang Shoujia also squeezed over with a basin and a stick.
Jiang Fubao's face was filled with black lines. He wondered where his grandfather got the basin from.
It looks familiar, as if it is Jiang Meng's foot basin.
"Stop making noise, Brother Zhou, what are you doing? What brings you to our village?" Zhoujia Village is right next door, so the distance is close and most people know each other.
Jiang Shoujia walked up to Village Chief Zhou and asked in confusion.
"Oh, you misunderstood. We are not stealing. It is the clan leader's granddaughter-in-law who is missing. Clan leader Zhou insisted that his granddaughter-in-law is at Liu's son's house, so we came here. These villagers are just here to watch the fun. They happened to be working in the fields, so they had weapons in their hands. Don't misunderstand. I wanted to explain just now, but you didn't listen."
