"Xie saw it."
Xie Liangchen's eyes kept falling on Jiang Nuanzhi. He really felt that Jiang Nuanzhi was doing something stupid. These people were related to each other in the village. If he offended one person, he would offend a group of them. Now that he had beaten so many people at once, he might not be able to gain a foothold in the village in the future.
However, looking at her arrogant and wanton face, Xie Liangchen subconsciously stood in front of her and said: "At that time, Uncle Niu came back with the donkey cart, and there were people sitting in the cart. Not only Xie One sees.”
Uncle Niu and his wife naturally nodded after hearing this.
"That's right, when we saw Fuman girl and we were driving back, we saw Xie Erlangjun taking Fuman girl back. There were also Wang Mazi and the others who were sneaking around. They must be wasting food!"
Widow Wang didn't expect someone to actually come forward, and she was furious: "Fart, you guys are farting! He, Xie Liangchen, and Jiang Fatya are from the same family, and Uncle Niu and the others live next door to Jiang Fatya. Your two families always go together." She’s so close, you both wear the same pair of pants with her, how can you count what you say!”
Widow Wang shouted: "Not to mention whether you stole something or not, even if you stole something, how could you beat someone like this? Look at the pillars, those who were beaten are unconscious. Is it because of this? Is it necessary to kill someone?”
Widow Wang's eyes fell on the shiny bracelet on Jiang Nuanzhi's hand. She knew it was valuable at just one glance. Her eyes turned to Jiang Nuanzhi's face again, and the jealousy in her eyes was even worse. As soon as she rolled her eyes, He said: "Jiang Fatya, let me tell you, if you don't pay the money today, I will report it to the government. Let the government come directly to arrest you, a murderer! Stealing is a small crime, but killing someone will be punished." In jail.”
Widow Wang's family had just paid taxes, but they didn't have any money left. She hadn't seen meat for a long time, but from time to time the rich smell of meat would come out of Fatty Jiang's house.
I heard people say that the greasy stuff in her house is eaten by dogs. She also built such a big new house. Even the objects in this place are different from others. I heard people say that these are good things and they will be valuable if you take them out. Seeing that she is living an extremely comfortable life, do you think she doesn't want to go to prison?
At that moment, he narrowed his eyes and threatened: "Think about it, if I go to report to the official, even if you go back and forth, it will be a lot of money. And you are a criminal, and if you commit a crime, you will have to pay double the amount." It's a punishment. I don't want to hold on to the blind date in the village. You only give me a hundred taels of silver and the bracelet on your hand. That's all." >
After hearing what Widow Wang said, the families behind her who were still crying around their son suddenly looked over.
"One hundred taels! We also want one hundred taels, no less!"
"Yes! My son is the most seriously injured. I want...one hundred and fifty taels!"
"Otherwise, we should sue her! She is a guilty person. As long as we sue the government, she will be detained!"
"Yes, our child cannot be beaten in vain! His family's land should also be compensated to us!"
"That's right, one hundred taels is not enough to treat my son! If it is really broken, what will happen to my wife in the future? I think Jiang Fatty should marry into our family and serve my son with tea and water until he So far! ”
"You are marrying into my family. My son is the one who is hurt the most!"
"Fart, my son is obviously the most seriously injured!"
"Why are you robbing?" Widow Wang stared angrily: "When you get the money, will you let your son get a broken shoe?"
"Yes, when the time comes, I will marry my son a beautiful, unmarried woman. I heard that everyone built a big house, and one of the windows in it is enough for us to eat for a month."
As he said this, those people seemed to stare at Jiang Nuanzhi with red eyes, as if they were staring at a big piece of fat.
Greed made them forget about the man lying on the ground and stared at Jiang Nuanzhi noisily.
Just when everyone was immersed in their beautiful imagination, the next second, Jiang Nuan stepped on Wang Mazi's body.
Wang Mazi's howl, which had just been lowered, suddenly increased in volume, and the shrill sound pierced the sky, making people's hearts tremble, and the surrounding area became quiet almost instantly.
Jiang Nuanzhi curled up his lips: "What a good idea. I really don't know whether to call you stupid or poisonous and stupid?"
"I should educate you. I think you don't know what punishment the officer who reports false reports should receive. According to Da Jing's laws, any unruly person who reports false reports to officials and affects the officials' handling of cases will be fined two taels of silver and have their hands cut off, depending on the severity of the situation. , tongue cutting, exile as a slave and other different punishments. ”
As soon as these words came out, the few who had just clamored for the most joy became honest. There was a bit of hesitation in his expression.
"But it's true that you beat people like this. We won't accuse you of murder, but it's right to accuse you of beating people!"
"That's right!"
Jiang Nuanzhi raised his eyebrows, hugged his shoulders and said: "Then go quickly, I'll wait here."
As soon as these words came out, the few people looked at each other and stopped moving for a moment. He just looked at Jiang Nuanzhi warily.
Jiang Nuanzhi said funny: "Seven or eight strong men came to steal food from my land. I am a woman and a child with an elderly person in my family. Naturally, I want to beat them out. It's reasonable to go anywhere. You hurry up and report to the official. It's just in time. Convict them of theft and I can’t wait to see them put in jail.”
"Oh, by the way, for the crime of theft, you will have your hand cut off. You will also have to pay compensation for what was stolen. I might as well tell you that when the jade grains in my house mature, each one can be sold for one tael of silver."
"Do you need to cut off your hand if you steal?" There were whispers all around.
"Of course, didn't Wu Laoer just break one of his hands?"
"What can I do?"
"How about we stop reporting to the official?"
Jiang Nuanzhi's eyes grew colder: "If you don't report this official today, I will ask someone to report it."
As soon as these words came out, several people shrank in fear.
Some women’s knees went weak and they sat down on their knees, crying loudly.
"Doctor Jiang, Doctor Jiang, please let us go. My son is only twenty years old this year. He cannot have his hand cut off." An old woman cried and begged.
"What are you asking her for? Can she have some backbone!" This woman was the one who went to Jiang Nuanzhi's house with Widow Wang to borrow money, but was taken care of by Jiang Nuanzhi. She had suffered a loss at Jiang Nuanzhi's hands. Naturally, he did not dare to step forward, but he pointed at Jiang Nuanzhi for a while and then said: "You are not leaving us a way to survive now! Why are you so cruel? Are you still a woman?" An old woman looked at him in disbelief. Follow the Jiang Nuan way.
Jiang Nuanzhi gave her a cold look and then looked away: "If all women were like you, I would rather not be like you."
While she was speaking, she stepped on Wang Mazi again. Wang Mazi's roaring accompaniment sounded, and the people around him suddenly became more honest. Jiang Nuanzhi was satisfied with the effect and nodded: "I will give you two ways now. . 1. Report to the official immediately. Let each of them cut off one hand. The second is to compensate me for one tael of corn. There are about thirty people who have been squandered on this land. I will take less from you. You give me 30 taels for this thief. It’s over.”
"Pangya Jiang, you are so poor that you are crazy!" Widow Wang looked at Jiang Nuanzhi in disbelief: "Are you planting gold nuggets? One tael of silver each? You are blackmailing!"
"Yes, this is blackmail!" said the woman.
Widow Wang was furious: "If you don't have money, just dream, I think you are obsessed with money!"
At this time, Xie Liangchen lowered his voice beside Jiang Nuanzhi and said: "Maybe you can let them go. After all, you will still have to walk in the village in the future. It is not good to offend so many people. Only by giving both kindness and power can you win the hearts of the people."
< br>
Jiang Nuanzhi raised his eyebrows and glanced at Xie Liangchen. The future powerful minister was right.
However, she only looked away lightly and said: "You can do it without money, then I will cut off one of their hands so that they will have a long memory." (End of Chapter)
