Chapter 214： Live or die and remarry

The Gong family had never had any dealings with the government in their lives. No matter how fierce the trouble was, the village chief would at most come out and make peace with it. Even if the trouble was so serious that someone was about to die, the village chief could still resolve it. In their eyes, the village chief was the biggest official.

Hearing Jiang Ning's words, Mrs. Gong instantly turned pale. Mother Gong was also frightened, but she still looked fierce and yelled, "Who are you! This is Hankou Village, outsiders are not welcome! Nosy!"

As she spoke, Mother Gong glared at the Guo family members fiercely, "If you have the guts, report it to the official! Let's see who gets killed!"

Jiang Ning stared at Gong without blinking, "Is that what you mean too?"

“I” Gong lowered his eyes.

Jiang Ning shook his head in disappointment, stood up and told Butler Zhu: "Let Zhu San report to the official."

“Yes!” Butler Zhu left immediately.

Seeing that Jiang Ning was serious, Gong's mother immediately shouted at the top of her lungs, "Someone's coming! He's bullying someone! Come on, someone's coming! Outsiders are bullying the villagers!"

After a while, a group of fishermen came outside the Jiang family courtyard, and some of them were holding things in their hands.

Gong's mother immediately had a backer and ran towards them, accusing Jiang Ning, "I don't know where this man came from. He wants to report to the officials to arrest me!"

Everyone was stunned, looking at Mother Gong and then at Jiang Ning.

An old man in his fifties or sixties walked over slowly, looked at Jiang Ning for a few times, and asked her politely: "Madam, I wonder why our people have offended you?"

Jiang Ning raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you the village chief?"

The old man nodded slowly, "That's right, the old man is the village chief of Hankou Village."

Jiang Ning raised the corners of her lips slightly, "Then the village chief should know what happened to the Jiang family! This woman bullied a room full of old, weak, sick and disabled people, why didn't the village chief come out to uphold justice for them?"

The village chief's expression changed slightly, he looked at the situation in the yard and glared at Mother Gong, "What good thing have you done again?"

Gong's mother felt guilty, her eyes flickered, and she muttered: "What can I do?"

“Let me speak for her, she married Jiang Dachun’s wife without telling the Jiang family.” Jiang Ning summed it up in one sentence.

Gong's mother didn't feel she was wrong at all, "Village chief, Jiang Dachun died early, and my daughter became a widow only three months after her marriage. She is so young, why can't she remarry!"

A woman couldn't bear to listen and shouted: "Even if she wants to get married, she needs the consent of the Jiang family. If the Jiang family marries her, what does it have to do with your family?"

“Why does my daughter have nothing to do with me?” Gong’s mother refused to accept it and argued with a stiff neck.

The village chief ignored the lawsuit filed by the woman in the village, but curiously asked Jiang Ning: "Are you from the Jiang family?"

“Relatives.” Jiang Ning smiled, with no unnecessary emotion in his eyes.

The village chief suddenly realized, looked at Guo, and sighed, "Dachun, you can't resurrect the dead, and the living have to look forward. Although Gong Mei and her mother are not right, she is right about one thing. , Gong Mei is still young, it is inhumane to let her stay a widow for the rest of her life. If she has intentions, no one will say anything. The problem is that if she wants to leave, you will not be able to keep her even if you force her to stay. On the contrary, if you agree to let her go, the family will not be able to live in peace. If Gong Mei remarries, how about I ask her mother-in-law to return the bride price to your family? "

"Why! I gave birth to my daughter, so why should I give her a bride price to his family? I don't agree!" Ms. Gong shouted, jumping up and down in anger. Asking for her money was like asking for her life.

Just as Mrs. Guo was about to speak, Jiang Xiaoqiu said sarcastically: "Okay! If her family can send all the gifts, we can let her go, but from now on, she and my family will be cut off completely. She can't even see the children, nor can she recognize!"

“This” the village chief frowned and looked at Gong Mei.

Gong Mei gritted her teeth, "I promise!" As she said this, she looked at Gong's mother, "Mom, bring all the bride price."

Gong's mother was so distressed that she said, "I don't! Those things are all mine!"

Gong Mei's face darkened, "The Jiang family has already reported to the government. If you don't agree, do you want to go to jail?"

The village chief cursed angrily: "Not even a child is half sensible, he is really living in a dog's belly!"

In the end, Gong's father forcibly sent the bride price to the Jiang family. Gong's mother wanted to stop it and scolded her, but no one cared about her opinion at all.

Jiang Ning asked Butler Zhu, who had returned, to fetch the four treasures of the study, and personally drew up a contract for the two families to pledge. The matter was settled. However, the village chief was still a little worried about official duties, so he still stayed at Jiang's house, planning to get there soon when official officials arrived. Step forward to explain and smooth over the matter.

Jiang Ning didn't take it seriously, and Tao Shi said slowly to Xin Cun, who was holding the child, "Bring out a stool."

Xin Cun glanced at Jiang Ning, and went into the room to get a stool under Jiang Xiaoqiu's confused eyes.

The village chief was testing Jiang Ning's relationship with the Jiang family, but Jiang Ning just smiled and didn't answer.

The village chief was a little displeased. He looked at Jiang Xiaoqiu and others, but found that these people were at a loss. Only Tao's situation was not right, but Tao's obviously had resentment towards him. She kept keeping a straight face and didn't look at him much. One glance.

This family.

The village chief became more and more annoyed as he thought about it, and regretted that he had agreed to allow the Jiang family to settle in their village.

Before the official came, Gong's mother came over again and stood with her arms akimbo at the gate of the courtyard, cursing, "You are so unscrupulous that you even dare to ask for my daughter's betrothal gift. You deserve to die. My son will die early. I curse your family to cut off any descendants!" "

Jiang Ning's face suddenly darkened, he stood up suddenly and strode towards Gong's mother. He raised his hand and slapped Gong's mother hard. She was so beaten that stars appeared in her eyes, and she spun around in circles before falling down.

The villagers who were watching the joke changed their faces when they saw Jiang Ning taking action, and walked out of their homes, ready to make a move.

The village chief was completely ashamed and chased him out, "Even if you are a relative of the Jiang family, you can't beat people in our village! You are really going against the grain!"

Tao Shi didn't expect Jiang Ning to be so impulsive, so she ran out, grabbed her, and scolded her: "Why do you beat her so well? It doesn't hurt to curse her. This is Hankou Village. What should we do if we offend them?"

“I’ll take the blame if something happens!” Jiang Ning stared at these unruly people gloomily, with burning anger in his chest.

"Ouch! You, you, you. I'm so angry with you!" Tao Shi couldn't do anything to Jiang Ning, so she stamped her feet in panic.

Jiang Ning felt that she was in the way and frowned, "You go in first."

Tao Shi shook her head decisively, "No! I have to watch you from here to prevent you from causing trouble for me again."

“Aniang!” Jiang Ning was furious. Does she look so unreliable?

When she shouted, everyone in the Jiang family and the villagers in Hankou Village were stunned.

Steward Zhu subconsciously covered his mouth, his eyes darting back and forth between Jiang Ning and everyone in the Jiang family.

Jiang Xiaoqiu was extremely shocked and asked in a low voice in Guo's ear: "Aniang, she calls Aniang Aniang, who is she?"

Ms. Guo froze in place, unable to say a word for a long time, as if she was stuck in long-lasting memories.

Gong's mother covered her face and sat on the ground crying, "Everyone else is bullying me, but you are still not from the Gong family? You just watch me being bullied! Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
