Koi girl escapes and farms

Chapter 138 Compensation
At the beginning, Village Chief Liu still rebuked Zhao Ren bitterly, but in the end, he really couldn't understand that it was because of this that he was going to set fire to other people's homes?
"What do you know? You have everything, or what the village chief wants. Why do you point at me? Do you know how difficult it is for me?" Zhao Ren retorted unconvinced.

"You..." The head of Liu Village was trembling with Zhao Ren's fingers, pointing at his nose, unable to speak.

"Village chief, what more do you have to say to him? He has already decided that everyone is sorry for him, and he won't listen no matter how much you say."

Seeing that Zhao Ren was still dead, Liu Sanshui refused to admit his fault.

He knew that such a person would not listen to persuasion at all. No matter how much he said, it would only make him feel that he was targeted by the villagers.

Now that his thinking has been biased and his heart has been broken, it is useless to persuade him. It is better to think about how to solve this problem.

"Zhao Ren, is there anything else you want to say?" Village Chief Liu said disappointedly.

Zhao Ren still raised his chin stubbornly, as if he was not the one being judged by everyone.

Seeing that his dead pig was not afraid of being scalded by boiling water, Village Chief Liu slowly recovered his calmness, "Go and call Mrs Zhao Xu."

When village chief Liu said he was looking for Xu, he was referring to Zhao Qingqing's grandmother and Zhao Ren's mother.

However, the villagers were used to calling her Grandma Zhao, and Village Chief Liu was so angry that he didn't care about everyone's good looks, and just called her Zhao Xu.

Hearing the words of Village Chief Liu, someone cleverly went to invite someone.

But the hearts of everyone present were also strange, because Tang Shiyun shouted that the fire was on fire, and the whole village was dispatched.

How come the Zhao family didn't show up except for Zhao Ren, who was present.

Could it be that Zhao Ren's arson was really planned for a long time, so no one from the Zhao family showed up?
However, this is just speculation, and the specifics are not yet known.

However, the expressions of everyone present were very bad, especially the complexion of Village Chief Liu, which was already dark and almost merged with the night.

It concerns his own vital interests, even if he was already very tired from the busy work just now, he wanted to lie in bed and rest.

But everyone present did not leave, just stood there and waited, waiting for the outcome of the matter tonight.

Village Chief Liu didn't have to ask everyone to go back. It would be better to deal with it early. Everyone in the province couldn't even sleep soundly.

"Ouch, village chief, what's the matter?"

Grandma Zhao was led into the gate by an aunt, and she saw the scene in the yard clearly, her pupils shrank.

"Humph! You don't know!" Village Chief Liu snorted coldly, very dissatisfied with Grandma Zhao's pretending to be ignorant.

When it was determined that Zhao Ren had set fire to Grandma Zhao who could not have known about it, Village Chief Liu just thought she was trying to clear the suspicion, so she pretended not to know.

"Village Chief, I was sleeping at home when I was called and said you were looking for me. I really don't know what happened. Is the Li family on fire?" Chief Liu.

Seeing that Village Chief Liu was still staring at him with a dark face, Grandma Zhao looked at the people around.

However, everyone was staring at her, but they didn't answer her questions.

Grandma Zhao's heart skipped a beat, and only then did she realize that something might have really happened.

At this moment, Grandma Zhao saw the person kneeling on the ground, "Zhao Ren?"

Grandma Zhao rushed in front of Zhao Ren, squatted down and shook her hands, and asked sadly, "My son, why are you kneeling on the ground? What's wrong with your face? Why are you injured?"

Zhao Ren still lowered his head and said nothing, as if he hadn't heard Grandma Zhao's voice.

"What the hell is going on? Who hurt Ren'er?"

"Mr. Zhao Xu, your son set fire to Tang Shiyun's house and caused everyone to go out to put out the fire in the middle of the night. It's summer and the weather is dry. He wants the whole village to follow him. Burial..."

The woman who spoke was only a few years younger than Grandma Zhao, but because the two were of the same generation, she was the first to speak out, who had long disliked Grandma Zhao's family.

The woman's cynical remarks vented the depression in her heart, but it also allowed Grandma Zhao to finally know what happened.

"What? Impossible, how could my son do such a thing, you are slandering."

"Oh! If there is any slander, ask your good son if he is not clear!"

"Ren'er, what the hell is going on?"

"Ren'er, what do you say? What happened?"

Grandma Zhao's repeated questions did not get the slightest response from Zhao Ren.

But looking at Zhao Ren's appearance, Grandma Zhao probably had a bad guess in her heart.

At this moment, a woman rushed in from outside the gate, went straight to Zhao Ren, and pounced on him.

This person is Zhao Qingqing's mother, that is, Zhao Ren's wife Wu Fangfang.

Wu Fangfang hugged Zhao Ren and began to cry: "Head of the house, head of the house, what's wrong with you? Who bullied you?"

"Mother? What the hell is going on here?"

Wu Fangfang was sleeping just now when she heard movement from Grandma Zhao's room in the main house.

She hurriedly put on a dress and came out to check the situation, only to see the back of Grandma Zhao following people out.

Wu Fangfang felt that something was wrong, thinking that the head of the house was not in the house just now.

I thought I was going to the thatched hut, but now I realize that things are not so simple.

Wu Fangfang hurriedly went back to the house to see that her daughter was sleeping soundly. She breathed a sigh of relief. She got dressed and followed Grandma Zhao's direction.

It turned out that there were so many people here, it seems that everyone from the village came.

Before Wu Fangfang was shocked that Tang Shiyun's house was on fire, she found that the head of the house was kneeling on the ground.

Moreover, Zhao Ren's face also seemed to be beaten, while he was with his mother-in-law.

"Master, what the hell is going on, woohoo..."

"Shut up! Cry, cry, cry, you know how to cry! The crying father is upset!" Zhao Ren, who had been silent all the time, heard Wu Fangfang's increasingly louder cry, and couldn't help but scold.

Wu Fangfang couldn't help blushing when she heard Zhao Ren scolding herself in front of everyone, but she didn't dare to resist his words.

"Zhao Ren, in front of your mother, do you recognize the fire tonight?" Village Chief Liu asked coldly when he saw that everyone had arrived.

"Ren'er, you didn't do this, right? As long as you didn't do it, Mother would not let them wrong you if she tried her best..."

"I did it!" Zhao Ren interrupted Grandma Zhao's words directly.

After reacting to what Zhao Ren said, Grandma Zhao froze in place, her body stiffened.

"How can you do this? It's a life-threatening thing." Grandma Zhao raised her hand and beat Zhao Ren's body.

Zhao Ren didn't resist and let her beat herself.Even her strength is not small.

"Okay! Everyone has been tired all night, and they have to work tomorrow. I don't have time to listen to you. Mrs. Zhao Xu, why don't you explain what happened today to everyone?" The individual starts again, interrupting impatiently.

At his age, he has been busy all night, and he really has no energy, and he is impatient to listen to these useless nonsense.

"Village chief, Ren'er is still young, he didn't do it on purpose, just forgive him."

"Qingqing is ten years old, he's still young." Aunt Li couldn't help but sneered.

Ever since she knew that Zhao Ren was the culprit, Aunt Li wanted to tear him apart.

"This... Ren'er is definitely not intentional. Village chief, you can let him go this time. He won't be able to do it next time."

"No, the black sheep like the village chief can't be spared, otherwise everyone will not sleep well. Who knows if they will wake up like the Li family and have no home."

"Yeah, the village chief can't let him go. He must be driven out of the village."

"Get out!"

"Get out!"

Maybe it was because of everyone's heart, and everyone agreed to drive Zhao Ren out.

"No, the village chief begs you to spare the head of the family, how can he live when he is kicked out."

Village Chief Liu didn't seem to hear Wu Fangfang's cry, but just stared at Grandma Zhao, wanting to see how she was going to deal with this matter and give everyone an explanation.

Grandma Zhao looked at the onlookers with dodging eyes and could not wait to eat her own eyes.

They all had a good relationship in the village before, but I didn't expect that it would be fine if they didn't help now.

They also wanted to drive Zhao Ren out together, these people are really too much.

"Ren'er..." Grandma Zhao sounded in a crying voice, looking at Zhao Ren sadly, but she didn't know what to do.

"Do the work alone, don't trouble my mother, I will leave by myself." Zhao Ren gritted his teeth and stood up to leave.

"Village Chief, what about the loss of my family?" Tang Shiyun, who had been watching this all the time, opened her mouth.

Tang Shiyun saw that Zhao Ren was about to leave, and everyone was probably shocked by Zhao Ren's sudden words, and no one stopped him.

Naturally, she didn't want to let the villain go so easily, after all Zhao Ren had already set his sights on his own home.

"Zhao Ren, lose money." The matter was a foregone conclusion, and Village Chief Liu didn't want to say too much, so he made a final decision and let Zhao Ren lose money.

"If you want money or not, you need your life."

Zhao Ren turned his head and turned to Tang Shiyun with hateful eyes, the hatred in his eyes seemed to be dripping out.

"Shi Yun, my Zhao Ren is already so miserable, how can you bear to force him."

"He's miserable? It's funny. My family is living a good life. Now that he has set fire to it, do I want to pity him? I didn't force him to set fire to it." Tang Shiyun mocked.

"This... Your family is so rich, and you have a shop, you definitely don't care about it. If it's a big deal, I'll bring you the old hen tomorrow." Grandma Zhao looked like she had sacrificed a lot.

"I'll go to your grandma, your old hen is golden, or a fairy chicken in the sky, you really have the face to say, for the old disrespectful old thing, you..." Aunt Li pointed at Grandma Zhao angrily. Yelling.

Grandma Zhao blushed when she was scolded by Aunt Li, but even if she knew that it was inappropriate, she couldn't do anything about it.

There are still so many people at home to eat, and brother Yi is also going to study, it is time to spend money.

If all the money is paid to the Li family, how will the family live?

Grandma Zhao looked at Village Chief Liu, "Village Chief..."

Village Chief Liu ignored Grandma Zhao's plea, "Shi Yun, how are you going to ask them to pay?"

"Losing money! 100 taels of silver, not a penny less!" Tang Shiyun said coldly, without a trace of emotion in her words.

"This……"

Village head Liu looked at Tang Shiyun in surprise, but he didn't expect her to open her mouth for 100 taels.

You must know that in this year and year, there is no estimate of the village's deposit exceeding ten taels of silver.

What's more, the 100 taels of silver, it is estimated that many people may not have seen so much silver.

"What? Village Chief Liu feels less?"

"No, no." Village Chief Liu shook his head again and again.

Just kidding, now that Tang Shiyun's family is developing so well, and he knows the magistrate, he only offends them when he is full.

Anyway, don't lose money by yourself, you just need to stand here as a witness and state your position.

As for the rest, let them negotiate on their own, and don't blame him for being ruthless. Who makes Tang Shiyun, this girl, really can't afford to offend her.

When she heard that she would pay 100 taels, Grandma Zhao's eyes went dark, and she stepped back and fell to the ground.

Then he sat down on the ground, crying and accusing: "Oh! This is killing my wife. Why did you leave so early, the head of the house, to bully my orphans and widowed mothers..."

The onlookers looked at Grandma Zhao with a complicated expression.

"This was caused by Zhao Ren, and Grandma Zhao is also very pitiful." A weak voice came from the crowd.

Someone came up with pity for a while, and couldn't help but agree: "Yes, there is a debt and a debt, and Zhao Ren should settle the matter."

But there are also villagers who remain rational, looking at the speaker with the same eyes as if they were looking at a fool.

'I'm afraid it's not because of my brain disease, that I can say such a thing. '

Tang Shiyun also listened to the rustling voices from the crowd with indescribable words. Unexpectedly, someone actually excused Grandma Zhao.

"I don't care who pays, anyway, I want to see 100 taels of compensation, otherwise I'm sure you won't be able to live a good life in the future."

Tang Shiyun thought to herself, since you don't listen to what you're talking about, let's just spread the word.

Otherwise, they all thought that their family would be easy to bully, and it just so happened that they could use this to kill chickens and set an example.

"You lose money, you are so cruel." Grandma Zhao stared at Tang Shiyun hatefully.

"My family's Shiyun is my family's treasure, and we are precious." Shuanzi couldn't hear that no one looked down on Tang Shiyun, so he couldn't help but retort.

Grandma Zhao stared at Tang Shiyun angrily, "I don't have any money, otherwise you will kill my old wife."

"Shi Yun, it's really impossible for the Zhao family to spend so much money, why don't you change it?"

"Oh? Brother Zhuangzi, is there any way?"

"It just so happens that your house can no longer be lived in, so let her pay you the land you still have in the house. If it's not enough, isn't there still someone in the house? Convert it to wages and let them work for you."

As Zhuangzi spit out one method after another, Grandma Zhao's heart also sank to the bottom.

Before Grandma Zhao could refute it, Aunt Zhao, who had been on the sidelines in the crowd, that is, Uncle Zhao Qingqing's wife, couldn't help but refuse: "No! I don't agree!"

Originally, she came in with Wu Fangfang, but because Wu Fangfang was always thinking about Zhao Ren and Grandma Zhao, she didn't notice her.
