Chapter 34： Jiang Ning's idea

Chapter 34 Jiang Ning’s idea

He pointed at the big banyan tree excitedly, "Look! Look there!"

The village chief's presbyopia was actually cured at this moment, and he yelled without anyone getting close, "There they are! Get them off!"

Mao Dali and Mao Erli were awakened by cold water.

When the two woke up, they found that their hands and feet were tied, lying in a charred house, surrounded by a group of villagers with fire-breathing eyes.

The two of them huddled together in fear.

"I, I, I, I warn you, private torture is against the law!" Mao Dali said while stumbling, his eyes moving around restlessly, looking for an opportunity to escape. He looked around, and sadly found that there was no one. Chance.

The village chief smiled ferociously, "You burned down our village's ancestral hall and you want to escape easily? Who gave you the confidence? Huh?"

Mao Erli gritted his teeth in anger, "Our master is a high-ranking official in the capital. If you dare to be disrespectful to us, we will make you look good when we return to the capital!"

"Oh! We are so scared! Let the two arsonists go to the Yamen and go to jail first! If your master knew what you did, he doesn't know if he would recognize you!" Jiang Ning appeared with a basket of wild vegetables. Outside the ancestral hall.

Everyone turned around suddenly and frowned.

The village chief scolded: "Ms. Jiang, why are you here to join in the fun?"

Jiang Ning looked innocent, "Village Chief, I didn't want to join in the fun, it was my mother who asked me to come! Didn't these two arsonists hurt the Qian family? Yang Laoer couldn't finish his farm work, and he couldn't come. It happened to be I went to give something to my mother-in-law, and she asked me to come over and ask for money.”

“Your mother-in-law asked you to come here to ask for money?” The village chief didn’t believe it no matter what he heard.

Jiang Ning pulled Ms. Zhou, and Ms. Zhou emerged cautiously. Everyone suddenly realized that Li asked the third family to come over to inquire about the situation. The third family didn't have the guts to drag Jiang over. When did the two sons of the Yang Jiang family Is your relationship with your daughter-in-law so good?

Jiang Ning asked without changing his expression: "Village chief, what are you going to do now? The other side of the house is still waiting for money to treat Qian's illness!"

The village chief frowned, "Since when have you been so worried about Mr. Qian?"

Jiang Ning was helpless, "Hey! I'm not worried about her, I'm just afraid that she will dig money from her parents-in-law. Who knows if my parents-in-law will be soft-hearted and give them money, and I will suffer a big loss!"

Everyone looked at each other, speechless for a while, as if this was indeed the case.

Yang Jun looked embarrassed, "I'm afraid it will be difficult to get money. They are penniless, and now they have set fire to the ancestral hall. We are planning to send them to the official!"

“How dare you!” Mao Dali stared fiercely at Yang Jun and others.

Everyone was so frightened by his fierce eyes that they were pounding in their hearts.

Jiang Ning waved to the village chief, "Let's take a step to talk."

The village chief hesitated for a moment and followed Jiang Ning out.

"Village Chief, you just saw it. These two are most likely desperadoes, and they will be punished. We have arrested them several times. If our county magistrate is a powerful man, that's all. He will definitely sentence them to beheading or exile. , no matter what happens, it will not harm our village.

But now the county magistrate hasn’t taken office yet, and we don’t know whether it’s good or bad, so we can’t take this risk! "Jiang Ning spoke eloquently, which surprised the village chief.

“Then what do you think should be done?”

Jiang Ning was waiting for this sentence, and immediately said: "I remember that there are two big iron chains in the cellar of our village ancestral hall, right? Use those two iron chains to tie up these two villains, and let them stay in the village to guard the ancestral hall. After repairing it, it will take a month or two to repair the ancestral hall at the speed they are going. By then the county magistrate will take office. Let's see if we send it to the official or something else. This can restore the village's losses as much as possible, don't you think? There is a large cellar specifically for storing taxed grains. Two large iron chains are used to pull wooden boards. Otherwise, how many times would it be necessary to move so much grain! The two large iron chains are not just idle during the autumn harvest, so they are most suitable for tying people.

Although the village chief felt that Jiang Ning's idea was a bit harmful, it was indeed the best choice for them at the moment, so he immediately went in to discuss it with the men inside.

Jiang Ning raised the corner of his lips and motioned for Zhou to go back.

Ms. Lu Zhou looked confused, "Sister-in-law, what did you just tell the village chief? Can those two people pay back the money?"

This is what Mrs. Zhou is worried about. Although the family has been separated, the money has not yet been divided. Everyone is staring eagerly at the old man's pocket. If Mr. Li really spends money to pay for the medical treatment of her second roommate at this time, she will feel uncomfortable.

Jiang Ning sneered, "How is that possible! If they were really rich, would they be in this situation?"

“What about the second sister-in-law?” Ms. Zhou paused, wanting to go back and ask again.

Jiang Ning hurriedly pulled her away, "That's what the second wife should worry about. Why are you anxious? Don't worry! My parents don't have money, and even if they have money, they won't give it to them."

At the beginning, she was almost dead and the couple didn't come up with any money. It seemed that they were really poor, and she was quite sure of this.

Zhou didn't know why, but she had always been afraid of Jiang Ning. She knew that Jiang Ning said exactly what he said, so she didn't dare to refute anything.

The two sisters-in-law returned to the old house. When Jiang Ning saw Mrs. Li, he gave her the wild vegetables and said, "Mom, I'll trade it with you for a cabbage."

Li rolled her eyes, didn't even bother to say anything, and turned around to enter the room.

Jiang Ning went to the vegetable field by the familiar route. He saw that there were not only water spinach but also some beans. He picked two more handfuls by the way and walked away in a big way.

 Qian heard the noise in the house but couldn't go out to take a look, so she quickly asked Yang Fugui to follow him out to take a peek.

When Jiang Ning saw him, he immediately scolded him loudly: "Fugui! Although our two families have been divorced, there are some things that I, the elder, still have to say. You have learned so many bad habits at such a young age. , you can still spy? Those who don’t know, think you have a mother but not a mother!”

“Ms. Jiang, you shameless bitch! You are the son of a mother, not a mother!” Qian was yelling in the room.

Jiang Ning immediately turned down his face, "Since your mother is not dead, that's good. I would like to ask your mother how she teaches her children! If you don't learn well when you are young, you will be better when you grow up!"

Jiang Ning stepped forward and grabbed Yang Fugui's hand, dragging him into the yard regardless of his efforts.

Yang Fugui howled repeatedly, "Mother, mother! Help me! Auntie is going to drag me away!"

 Qian was about to get up when he was anxious, but halfway through he rolled out of bed in pain, wailing continuously.

Mrs. Li just came out of the room with a long face, "I'm going to die! This can cause trouble!"

"Grandma, help me! Grandma, help me!" Yang Fugui rushed toward Ms. Li.

Li directly took Yang Fugui into her arms and asked angrily, "Why are you spying on your aunt? Who asked you to do it? Tell me!"

Li was furious and looked at Yang Fugui with serious eyes.

Yang Fugui was frightened, cried loudly, and immediately confessed Qian.
