Chapter 57 The Foundation Is Destroyed
He hurried home.

"Father, the foundation of our house has been destroyed."

"what!"

Lin Changlu hurried out of the house.

"Didn't I just go to see how the foundation of the new house is doing, I didn't expect that the southeast corner was smashed by someone."

Lin Changlu frowned tightly, "Go, go and ask the village chief to go and have a look together."

When the village head heard about it, he immediately followed them to see the scene.

"It looks like it was dug out by a hoe."

"Village Chief, we have to ask you to decide this matter for us. Our family has never taken the initiative to cause trouble, and we don't know who hates our family so much. The destruction of the foundation is a major event, but it will affect our family's future luck."

The village chief nodded solemnly.

"Chang Lu, don't worry, I will definitely investigate this matter strictly. This matter is simply too bad."

The Lin family's new foundation is far away from the village. There are only a few families here. The village chief quickly finished asking, but he didn't find any clues.

At present, there are only a few servants and cooks at home in the Lu family, and they have not noticed that anyone has been here at night.

Just when the village chief was caught in a dilemma.

Ah Li squatted on the ground to watch, and soon picked up a half-broken wooden hairpin by the side of the mound.

The place where the wooden hairpin fell off was covered by the leaves, so I couldn't see it unless I looked carefully.

"Uncle Village, who owns this thing!"

The village chief took the wooden hairpin from Ah Li's hand and felt a little familiar, so he showed it to the people who came to watch the fun.

"Look who owns this thing, it's impossible for women's things to come here for no reason."

At this time, a woman in the crowd said: "This hairpin seems to belong to Wu."

As soon as she said this, the women next to her nodded and said, "Yes, yes, I have seen her wear it too."

At this time, Mrs. Pei thought that she had beaten Mrs. Wu before.

"It's really possible that the village chief did the foundation of our house."

The village chief also heard about their fight, and thinking about it, Wu really had this motive.

"Erba's daughter-in-law, go and call Mrs. Wu here, and tell her that I have something to look for."

Erwa's daughter-in-law immediately nodded and went to the village.

Soon after, Mrs. Wu followed, and seeing a large group of people surrounded here, she was still very surprised.

"Village chief, what happened, why are there so many people around here?"

"Wu Shi, have you been here these two days?"

"No, what am I doing here?"

Seeing Pei's expression of wanting to eat her, Mrs. Wu was a little puzzled.

"What happened to the village chief, just tell me, I still have work to do at home!"

"The new foundation of the Lin family was destroyed, so I want to ask you for a question."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wu exploded, "Village Chief, you don't suspect that I did this, do you?"

"You had a fight with Changlu's wife some time ago, so now I have reason to suspect that you hold a grudge."

"Village chief, without you doing things like this, could it be that I did it just because I have a grudge with Mrs. Pei?"

Wu said and howled, "You are too bullying, you slander people without evidence."

The village head held the hairpin in front of her eyes.

"Look clearly, is this your thing? We didn't insult anyone at will."

Seeing that the hairpin was broken, Mrs. Wu was a little confused, "Isn't this the hairpin I've lost for a long time? Why is it here?"

"This hairpin was picked up by A Li girl next to the mound. You said you didn't make it. Why did your stuff get here? Also, there are people working here during the day. They didn't find it yesterday, so it was you yesterday. I dropped it when I secretly did something bad at night, do you have anything else to say?"

Wu's panicked, she immediately waved her hand and said, "Village Chief, I really didn't do this! My hairpin is long gone, someone must have set me up."

Suddenly she remembered that she had discussed this topic with Qin Shi a few days ago.

"I know who did it. The village head is the Qin family. It must be her. I once had this idea and told her about it. After I went back, I forgot about it."

Qin Shi, who happened to come over to watch the excitement, heard Wu Shi mention her, and rushed over immediately.

"Wu Shi, what nonsense are you talking about? You came to me the other day and wanted to provoke the relationship between our two families. Did I say that although we didn't deal with it, we are still a family anyway."

"Yes, it's true that you said that, but the ghost knows if you are telling the truth. I think this is what you did to frame me on purpose."

Wu Shi and Qin Shi talked to each other and quickly changed from quarreling to fighting.

The village chief was standing on the side, whether he was pulling or not. Both of them were women, and it was not easy for him to get started.

I had no choice but to pull the two of them away from the woman watching the fun.

The two of them have the same combat strength, you pull my hair, I scratch your face, the scene got out of control for a while.

Mrs. Pei pulled Ah Li to hide from a distance and watched their dog bite the dog.

In the end, the village head shouted with all his might, "Stop it all—"

Only then did Wu Shi and Qin Shi stop their hands, and they snorted coldly at each other with their messy hair.

"Can you save me a day, what is it like to fight if you don't agree with each other? If you want to do this, you should admit it quickly. You should apologize and pay for it. Otherwise, I will let the Lin family report to the police. When the time comes You have to take off your skin if you are put in a big prison, you have to think about it yourself."

Mrs. Qin straightened her messy hair and said, "If you report to the official, you should report to the official. Anyway, I'm not afraid. It's not like these people who have all the evidence and don't rush to admit it. They have to go to the Yamen to be punished."

Hearing this, Mrs. Wu really panicked. She has her hairpin in his hand, and she still understands how the government handles things. If this is the case, she will definitely put the crime on her head and close the case hastily.

When the time comes to figure it out, it will not only cost money, but also cost a lot of money.

She turned her heart and said directly: "Yes, I did it."

When she admitted, Mrs. Pei came over and pointed at her nose and yelled, "Good Mrs. Wu, I didn't expect you to do it. You are so vicious. If you see that I don't feel well, come to me and quarrel with me and beat me up." Please accompany me, don't play tricks in the dark."

The village chief said from the side: "Changlu's family, calm down first."

Afterwards, he lectured Wu Shi and asked her to apologize to the Lin family in front of everyone.

Although Wu Shi was very reluctant in her heart, she still bowed slightly in front of Lin Changlu and Pei Shi.

"Sorry, I shouldn't have done this, please forgive me."

Pei Shi didn't want to accept her apology, so she turned her head to the side.

Lin Changlu sighed, "Hey! Mrs. Wu, you are too old, how can you do such a thing! To be honest, it is hard for me to forgive you, but let's just leave it at this point!"

The village chief also knew that it would be difficult for the Lin family to calm down with an apology.

Then he said to the Wu family: "If you pay another five taels of silver to the Lin family, the damaged foundation will have to be rebuilt."

"Five taels..."

"Why do you think it's too little? Then six taels."
