Chapter 789: Climb and bite
"So that\'s how it is."
Li Haitang couldn\'t help but hugged his shoulders. A broken bone is not a pain that a person can bear, and he still has to wait for regeneration.
But in this way, Hua Ni\'s father at least hopes a little more. If he can recover, at least it will be fine to do some light work. It\'s not good to push all the burdens of the family on the woman.
It was raining heavily, and Hua Ni\'s two thatched cottages leaked again.
In the middle of the night, Hua Ni\'s mother made a ladder, took a bundle of straw from the utility room, and climbed up and down with difficulty.
The rain entered her eyes, and she didn\'t know whether it was rain or tears, which blurred her vision. If she was not careful, she would fall off the roof.
The big stone that had been in my heart for a year was easily removed by the nobleman. Hua Niang couldn\'t tell what she was feeling in her heart, but she just thought it was her own luck. If the child\'s father had a chance to recover, let her be a cow She has nothing to say about being a horse.
Also unable to sleep, there is Hua Ni\'s father. He opened his eyes and moved his gaze to his broken leg. As long as he can recover in the future, even if it is the pain of a broken bone, so what?
He has to work hard to support his wife and children. In the future, he will save a dowry for Hua Ni so that his daughter can marry into a good family.
In the darkness, he clenched his fists and secretly made a decision.
The rainy night in Yangliu Village is destined to be sleepless.
On the second day, at dawn, the door of Hua\'s house was knocked again, but this time, the knocking sound was mixed with the sound of kicking the door, which woke Li Haitang from his sleep.
Why not sleep in the open in the wilderness and finally get some sleep, isn\'t it easy?
"Who is it?"
Hua Ni Niang has already groomed, fed the chickens, and took out a few eggs from the chicken coop, thinking of making egg custard for the nobles.
There is really nothing good at home, and there are only two old hens, which are not as good as pheasants.
"Flowers?"
The leader was a few officials, followed by a group of villagers from Yangliu Village. Li Haitang looked through the crack of the car window, and saw that they were the same people who came to the door last night.
"Master, is there something wrong?"
The official rarely came to the village, Hua Niniang was taken aback, but thinking that she had done nothing wrong, she pretended to be calm.
"Hua Ni, and those who saw the fat village chief\'s family by the river yesterday, follow us!"
The official was very impatient and his tone was not good.
Someone sent a letter to the yamen, saying that there was a landslide on the official road, which blocked the road, and asked the county magistrate to send someone to clear it.
They are all officials, and they have to do coolies if something happens, and they are called up early in the morning, and no one wants to.
Being depressed, the village head of Yangshu Village came to report to the officials, saying that his son was murdered by the conspiracy of the Hua family and passers-by.
Homicide? Now, the officials are paying attention. They often come here and know that the village head\'s son is a fool. Since he is a fool, is it necessary for the other party to murder him?
"It must be them!"
The village head\'s wife was crying and howling. It rained last night. They searched all night. At dawn, they finally found someone not far from Yangshu Village. Her family was lying on the riverside, her lower body was naked, and the middle part was bloody. , and there are patches of bluish-purple marks on the back.
If it is said that he slipped and fell into the river, how could it be possible that someone smashed it?
The village head\'s wife couldn\'t believe her eyes. Her son died tragically. She must report to the officials and let the person who killed his son die with his life!
Needless to say, the Hua family must not be able to pay back the money, so they came up with this evil plan. The village head\'s wife rushed in with the officials and overthrew Hua Ni\'s mother.
"You bitch, murderer, I\'ll fight you!"
The son\'s thoughts are miserable, how can a mother bear it?
The village chief\'s eyes were red, and he stared fiercely at Papa Hua Ni and Hua Ni who went out afterwards.
Do you think everything will be fine after killing his son? He wished he could drag Hua Ni into the grass and ravage her hard, wanting to avenge his son!
To be so vicious at such a young age, to kill people together with outsiders, killing people is not counted, but to use stones to beat...
The villagers whispered, followed behind the official to watch the fun, and expressed their opinions to each other.
If the murderer is really the Hua family, they feel that the Hua family is too stupid, so they just tricked the fool into the river and drowned themselves, wouldn\'t it be good? In the end, evidence had to be left to let people know that the fool was murdered by others, no, it would cause a verbal lawsuit for nothing.
The stupid son of the village chief\'s family died? Li Haitang was a little surprised.
She had been with the wild man last night and never separated, and the Hua family did not go out, so it must not have been done by the Hua family.
Furthermore, Xiao Lingchuan has always been good at handling affairs, if he really wanted to kill a fool, the village chief would not even find the body.
"Did you just meet silly...the wife of the deceased yesterday before it rained?"
When the official saw the carriage in the courtyard, he faintly felt that the identity of the guest was extraordinary. Regarding the village chief\'s complaint, he didn\'t take it seriously. People passing by, why kill your idiot for nothing?
As for the Hua family\'s attack, after learning the ins and outs, the officials felt that the Hua family had motives.
"Yes, at that time there was my son, my maid, Hua Ni."
Li Haitang has always cooperated with the official envoy handling the case, not to mention that the other party was very polite, and it was just a routine inquiry.
"It\'s you who went back and killed my son!"
The village chief\'s daughter-in-law wailed, causing eardrums to hurt, and was scolded by the official, "You are not our master, you can still try the case?"
Now, the village chief\'s wife stopped talking, but she decided that she had something to do with the Hua family.
"Master, let\'s do this first. If you see the corpse, you should carry it to the yamen first, and ask you to make an appraisal of the time of death."
After Li Haitang and the others came back, they never went out again. How could they kill someone? She can guarantee that if there is a murderer, then the murderer must be someone else.
The stupid son of the village chief\'s family took off the old lady\'s pants some time ago. I don\'t know how many such hurtful things he has done. Maybe someone will find him uncomfortable.
"My family is fat, and I\'m still a child!"
The village chief\'s wife wiped her tears. She was only twelve years old, and she was still half a child. It was just that the two of them always fed their son well, thinking that he was a fool and owed his son, so that the fat and young matured prematurely.
"The body has been sent to the Yamen."
The official servant rubbed his temples, he was also startled when he saw the dead body, his lower body felt cold, he always felt that the fool died a bit miserable. The village head insisted that the murderer was the Hua family, and even involved passers-by. They had no choice but to come and arrest them.
